Correspondence.
To the Editor of the Lyttelton Times. +i SlK'r7-L>crmit me to enquire if you can inform tiie public of Lyttelton, who are particularly interested on the subject, if the late exertion of the redoubted Provincial Engineer has been the means of affecting his intellects. This question if-"l ? otl1Pdle(l to ask from seeing the way in which he has laid out the streets in this town. I ake .London Street for instance; to effect an entrance into some of the houses the inhabitants must go down the chimneys, if we are to judge by the height of the pegs which he has erected with so much labor to himself and expense to he public.
Dear Mr. Editor, do for mercy's sake show up this nonsense. Are the whole arrangements of the town to be disturbed, and such heavy expenses entailed ou the Provincial Government because the Provincial Engineer has been recently to the West Coast and- left us in the mud till this late season of the year, while he has been looking for country. [Verbum sat!]. Yours, &c, ANTIHUMBUG. Lyttelton, July 23.
