I’m always found throughout the day,
But never in the night.
Your affectionate friend, Samuel B——.
We have received answers from Mary G. D., F. W. B., J. F. T., and some others, to our Twenty Questions about Animals, in the October number of the Museum. Most of them are correct. As a specimen of the letters on this subject, we insert the following, adding a few notes of correction:—
Bristol, Oct. 25th, 1843.
My dear Mr. Merry:
In the last number of your Museum, you wished your little readers to send you the answers to twenty questions given to us. I am quite a small boy, but I thought I would try to answer them; and those that I may answer wrong I should like to have you correct in your next number, and oblige a little friend and subscriber, who is yet too young to write for himself.
