LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

"THE GRUDGE AGAINST TEIE LIBERAL UNIONISTS."

[To THZ EDITOR OF THO esesereroe.ei SIR,—There is a sting in the tail of the complimentary re- ferences of your correspondent, "The Conservative Chairman of a Worcestershire Division," in the Spectator of March 14th, to the Daily Argue, which, with your permission, I will take leave to extract. To those of your readers intimately familiar with the political geography of the Midlands, it must have seemed strange that the duty of correcting your article should have devolved—presumably by Hobson'e choice—upon thr chairman of a county division, when "An Old Conservative Leader" was concerned with political feeling in the City. This is evidently a case in which mortals rush in where angels fear to tread. Neither you nor your readers will be surprised to learn that "Conservative Chairman" is entirely in the dark on this subject. His insinuation that the letter of an "Old Conservative Leader" was a "bogus" contribution is, I need scarcely say, entirely unfounded.—I am, Sir, &a,

THE EDITOR OF THE "DAILY Attune."
