THE MEETING OF THE UNEMPLOYED.
+ (to the editob of the independent.) Sib, — I never was more surprised in my life than in seeing a meeting of the unemployed in Wellington convened by Bill Taylor of the Hutt and presided over by Mr Trueman. Why, sir, I have known Bill for about twenty years, and I am sure in that time he has thrown away a fortune twice or three times over. I should just like to ask him through your paper if he is out of work, who is to blame? is for Trueman, every one knows that although he talks bitterly about the Government paying passages for Swedes he camo out in the Alma afc Government expense. I should like to ask him through your columns if lie has yet paid the passage of himself and fuuiilj. — I am, &c, An Old Identity.
