Some curiosity was raised when it transpired that Sir Charles

Napier had this morning published the private correspondence with Sir James Graham in October and November last ; and it turned out that the Horning Advertiser was the organ of the publication. The letters, how- ever, disappointed curiosity. They do not alter the impression already created by so much as was previously known of Sir James's friendly hinting inquires into Sir Charles's Baltic inactivities, and Sir Charles's irritated, controversial, exeusatory replies. The still inexplicable question is, how any gentleman could have got over the obstacle to publication in the prefix to the letters as "private."
