COLONEL LYNCH.
TO TITB EDITOR OF THE PRESS. Sir,—l am sure the cruel oppression meted out by a brutal oligarchy to our noble friend Colonel Lynch must meet with the horrified disapproval of all the sons of freedom. I am awaiting the intelligence that our powerful Premier has interfered. If he could reverse and annul the decision of a military tribunal in war time, surely the present matter should be a trifle to him. Mr Soddon must remember that he has no stanincher supporters in the colony than those wlio sympathise with Colonel Lynch. So let him arrange for lids release. Then lie couid settle amongst us, and take part in our public affairs. True, bigoted opposition might ■ensure his rejection at the polls, but this would simply enhance his clahne to a seat in the Upper House, where ho would find congenial and sympathetic society.—Yours, etc.. i MANCHESTER MARTYR.
