I also wandered over to Butterfly Creek (shortly after Easter, and, candidly, Sir, I was amazed and disgusted at the recent wanton destruction of the ferus and nikaus. 1 passed dozens of the workers widening roads. Surely some of these men would be better employed a* ranger*. "Bush Lover's" estimate of the number of fires that had been lighted in the roots of birch trees was too conservative, I counted a dozen and was too shocked to look for any more. In another place there had evidently been a camp fire evening and seat* had been provided by breaking down fern trees and piling the branches up until comfort had been - obtained: And, Sir,' notices .were few and far between. An a /visitor to .your city may I be permitted to ask the people of Wellington to wake up before it is too late.—l am, etc., BUSH LOVER No. 2.
