Sir — Asomewhat rude and unwarrantable attack having been made upon the character of one of our esteemed ministers in the settlement, ia your columns oa Wednesday last, an Elector in the Waimea wishes, through the same medium, to have the following questions put to Mr, Alexander Ogg : — I. How long ago is it since you mentioned the Sunday political meeting of Mr. Stafford's friends, which was held, or was to be held, at the Plough Inn, Richmond, one Sunday Morning at 1 1 o'clock ? •" 3. Did you not talk of it within the laitfonr weeks in the house of an Elector-fating your canvass for signatures to Dr. Monro's Uequisition ? 3. Did you not then say you thought of referring to the matter on the hustings ? I .vent to the hustings expecting it, but was disappointed. 4. If the report were true (and as you have circulated it, the contrary can scarcely be believed; why did you wish to shirk the responsibility of exposing such a vile outrage upon Christian decency and morality? Let us fearlessly " speak the truth and shame the Devil." : ' . Vindicator. Waimea.
