ORIGINAL CORRESPONDENCE.
[We are at all times ready to give expression to every shade of opinion, but in no case do we hold ourselves responsible for the sentiments of our correspondents-^
TO THE EDITOR OF THE AKAROA MAIL. Sir, —Would you kindly allow me a small space in your valuable columns. I notice an advertisement in your paper, of a public uieetingj to be held in the French. Farm school-house, on the 14th inst, and convened by Messrs. T. S. Baker, John Bell, Thomas Dicken, and A. C. Knight. The undersigned would like to know why these gentlemen wish to do business by themselves. I should suggest to them that the Town Hall of Akaroa would be the right and proper place to hold all such public meetings, and so prevent it from being a ono-sided affair as I cannot see why the inhabitants of Long Bay, Stoney Bay, Gough's Bay, Flea Bay, and the Heads should be left out in the cold, to say nothing about the inhabitants of the back part of the country in that district; and out of common co'irtesy to the Chairman of the Akaroa and Wainui Road Board,'! should have thought that gentleman should have been consulted in the matter, —Yours, &c, FAIKPLAY.
