The writer, who is by profession a barrister-at-law, is satisfied at being himself a county gentleman and heir to an historic estate in the ancient county of Salop, which can boast a larger population than the Land of the Blue Mountains.
EDITORIAL NOTE .-- We must ask our readers to pardon the report in yesterday's paper sent from Plazac.

The writer was not on our regular staff, but asked to be allowed to write the report, as he was a kinsman of King Rupert of the Blue Mountains, and would therefore be in a position to obtain special information and facilities of description "from inside," as he puts it.

On reading the paper, we cabled his recall; we cabled also, in case he did not obey, to have his ejectment effected forthwith.
We have also cabled Mr.Mordred Booth, the well-known correspondent, who was, to our knowledge, in Plazac for his own purposes, to send us full (and proper) details.

We take it our readers will prefer a graphic account of the ceremony to a farrago of cheap menus, comments on his own liver, and a belittling of an Englishman of such noble character and achievements that a rising nation has chosen him for their King, and one whom our own nation loves to honour.

We shall not, of course, mention our abortive correspondent's name, unless compelled thereto by any future utterance of his.
FROM "_The London Messenger_." THE CORONATION OF KING RUPERT OF THE BLUE MOUNTAINS.
(_By our Special Correspondent_, _Mordred Booth_.) PLAZAC, _October_ 17, 1907.
Plazac does not boast of a cathedral or any church of sufficient dimensions for a coronation ceremony on an adequate scale.
