TO THE PUBLIC OF AUCKLAND, EfC, ETC. riIHE Committee of the Military Settlers resident X at Cambriddge, appointed for the purpose ol recovering Back Pay, &c, owing to them by the New Zealand Government, would respectfully, but urgently, appeal to the sympathies of the Auckland public to come forward and assist them with that pecuniary aid which is so esseuti il in pursuing what threatens to become a lengthened lawsuit ; we, tht Military Settlers, to whom Back Pay is owing, being determined to leave nothing undone to make the New Zealand Government amenable for their engagements, &c The Committee, in thus appealing to the public, feel themselves called on to admit that the present is an unusual course of procedure; but it simply anses from the extraordinary course adopted by the Government, in refusing to let our case be brought before the Supreme Court of the colony in the usual way, but have decided on putting us to the tedious and expensive procedure of a Petition of Bight to the Queen. We have, therefore, no alternative but to obtain that Right ; and so force the Government out of their hiding-place, and place them before a jury of our countrymen, there to have the matter brought to a final issue. The Committee, in thus bringing; their case before the public, would respectfully point out the advantages to be derived by the province at large from the recovery of the Back Pay ; and, therefore, sincerely trust that our appeal will not be made in vain. N.B. — T. B. Gillies, Esq., the gentleman whose services we h*ve retained in the matter, is very conclusive on the subject of our ultimate success. Subscriptions will be thankfully received and acknowledged at the office of the Daily Southern Cross. (Signed) ALLAN NOBLE MAGX7IRE, Chairman pro tern. L. WILLIAM LOVEDAY, Secretary.
