Our Correspondence.

We have this month our usual stock of letters from our good natured friends,—​but we can only find room to notice them briefly. We are particularly well supplied with puzzles—​enough, indeed, to get our brains, and those of our readers too, into a snarl—​if we were to publish them all. There seems to be a great love for these things, and abundance of talent to produce them; why don’t somebody set up a Magazine entirely devoted to them? It might be called “The Universal Puzzler,” or the “Puzzler Puzzled, consisting of puzzles, original and select, foreign and domestic, and embracing the most celebrated puzzles of ancient and modern puzzlers—​edited by Peter Puzzle, Esq., aided by all the little Puzzles!” If any one is disposed to start the work, we give him the title gratis. But to our correspondence.

H. D. W——r, of Fruit Hill, Rhode Island, guesses that the answer to the riddle of our Quincy subscriber, is North America; and that of the one that comes from Portsmouth, is R. Merry’s Museum. Master Walker is right—​as are several other correspondents, who send us the same answer.

The letter of F. H. B. of Quincy, is received, as is that of E. D. H., Elizabeth B——g, &c., &c. The following deserves insertion as it has travelled so far.

Athens, (Georgia) April 19th, 1844.

Mr. Merry:

Dear Sir,—​I have received your Museum, and I am perfectly delighted with it. I am trying to get you more subscribers in our town, and I know that when I show the late numbers to some of the other little girls and boys, I shall have some new subscribers for you. I take a great deal of interest in your puzzles, and every time that your Museum has some of them in it, I sit down and try to solve them. Sometimes I succeed, and sometimes I do not. I write this to you because I see that you say in your last, that you love to hear from your little subscribers; and I am also encouraged to do so, seeing that you published a letter from a subscriber in Decatur, which is not very far from this place. I have found the answer to the Enigma of Frederick H. B. of Quincy; and I also send one of my own, which you will please publish if you think it deserves it. All that I have now to add is, that you are not forgotten in Georgia.

Your young friend,

A. C. C******.

HERE IS THE ANSWER TO FREDERICK’S ENIGMA.
