This a learned parent, if his learning was real, ought to have recognisedat once, instead of foolishly exploiting a fancied grievance. Yours farinaceously, JOSIAH VEDGELEY. THE OLD COMPLAINT. SIR, --Some sixty years ago I was rebuked by my father for addressing him as"Governor. " Thirty years later I was seriously offended with my own son forcalling me an "old mug. " He in turn, though not by any means a learned man, has within the last few weeks been irritated by his school-boy sonderisively a...ddressing him as an "old dud. " The duel between fathers andsons is as old as the everlasting hills, and the rebels of one generationbecome the fogeys of the next.
