MR DRURY AND CROMWELL ARGUS.

(to the editor of the dunstan times. ) Sir:—The result arrived at by the public of the Nevis on the 11th instant clearly proves that in the correspondence lately published in the Cromwell Argus between myself and “ A Nevis Miner,” as to who was speaking thO truth respecting any vote of confidence having been passed Upon Mr tyke at a public meeting. The tfext ■ time the Editor Of the Argus states that I am in error, it wottld do him no harm to publish the mahuscript, even thOhgh it reflected upon and warmly questioned the editorial iocal. Fortunately the Argus does not yet iWe the pfeblic, and the sooner the professed love “ of giving both sides of the question” assumes a practical shape like more 'likely is it to advance the interest of that journal. I did nOt think the vote of censure passed tipon the local Board of Health, Cromwell, and moved by myself some months since, would have taken such deep root and that a member of that Board would have abused his position as a journalist by suppressing the trhth, to gratify a paltry spite, and take to himself 'the unreserved credit of having “ sifted the grain froth the chaff so to speak.”—Yiur’s, &c., E. A. Drury.
