TO READERS AND CORRESPONDENTS.

It is very painful to receive so many complaints with reference to the dilatory and injurious discharge of the ship Blundell. We cannot, however, perceive that any good is to be obtained by addressing the Journals on that subject. If there be no legal remedy, sufferers must only “ grin and bear it.” Mercator is not alone in his distress. Let him turn to the advertisements of Mr. Stamms Jones, and he will see the sale of goods, ex Blundell, several times postponed because of their non-delivery. We could cite many others in the same predicament. Is it surprising, then, that consignees should complain loudly at not having their goods landed, more especially as the vessel made a passage of IH6 days from the Downs, and has now been 33 days in port? Mr. Unix should address himself directly to the Provincial Government. We think that a proper representation of the circumstances stated by him would procure for the district of Waiuku all that is required. The communications of Messrs. Gemmiu, Campion, and Ingles ; R. Drury, Andrew McEwin, C O. Davis, Digger, Amicus, Piulantiiropos, A Lover of Humanity, “ Our Own Correspondent’s” report on Ministerial changes, and several local articles, although in type, arc unavoidably postponed till our next.
