MR. JACOB BRIGHT.
[To sex EDITOR os vas "Ersozasoz."J
Sia,—I must remonstrate most earnestly with you for your extraordinary attack on Mr. Jacob Bright. You say it is "hardly decent to show so publicly how utterly he separates himself , from the policy of the brother," &c. I maintain, on the other hand, that this method of attack is "hardly decent." I main- tain that the younger brother, and the less famous brother, and the brother who advocates opinions opposed to those of the Spectator, has exactly the same right to express his opinions publicly as the elder and more famous brother who happens to agree with the Spectator. If this kind of weapon is to be used in political or any public controversy, there must be an end of all rational and logical discussion of public questions.—I am, Sir, &c., C. E. Mailmen. Sydney Cottage, Roslyn Hill, Hampstead.
