CORRESPONDENCE.
To the Editor of the Ha trice's Bay Times.
Sib, —“..Coming events cast their shadows before.” Through the leader in the Herald can be dimly seeiTthe calling of the Council together, while one of its members is absent, whose vote would be, to say the least, a doubtful one for the powers that are. “ Coining events cast their shadows before.” In the letter signed Q in the same paper is seen the shadow; the stand which will be made by the Apostolic squatters for their rights (?) and the author wishes to calm and to occupy the public mind now, and so prepare it for wbat is in store. It is not the last of the writer’s letters, and let him be warned in time that he and his friends are known. “Comingevents cast their shadows before.” In to-day’s sad account of news, our friendly allies have again deserted us in the Lour of need, after they had obtained lime, delay, and money from us. Are we not to take warning by this shadow ; or are we to remain in the blissful state of a pro-Maori feeling of security ? Will no steps be taken before that hideous monster the substance comes amongst us ? I pause for a reply. “ Act.”
