ENGLISH MAILS VIA SYDNEY.
TO TIIE EDITOR. Kindly let me, through the medium of your paper, draw public attention to a grievance which affects the public, viz., arrival of tho Sydney boat without the English mails. It is no satisfaction to be told that the Home mail was " a day or two days late —so the Sydney boat did not wait." Before this I have been travelling in haste up from the South, and at Wellington had to suffer a long and inoonvenient delay on account of two or tlirce members who wanted to catch the boat and travel North. So we waited till the House doted. Surely if a boat can be detained fo. two members, it can also wait for an important mail. If the passenger boat from Sydney cannot wait, why not run some special boat with the malls?— am, etc., N. Seafibld.
