ST. KILDA.

[TO THE EDITOR OF THR "SPECTATOR."]

you kindly allow me, as mandatory of the people of St. Kilda, to call public attention to the neglected condition of that island, and to say that although a post-bag was sent out last summer, no intimation has been given that the service is to be continued? My constituents will be perfectly contented with a post twice a year, namely, in spring and autumn, and as British subjects, I insist that they are entitled to this con- venience. The state of St. Kilda is a disgrace to the Govern- znent.—I am, Sir, &c., J. SANDS. Bankh.ecal, Tranent, February 13th.
