DRUNKEN SOLDIERS.
Sir, —As a law-abiding citizen of Wellington, would you allow me a few lines to protest against the disgraceful scenes that we had in our streets on. Saturday\night with drunken soldiers. Caililot something be done in the matter to keep order and to savo the King's uniform'from such disgrace? I propose that the Mayor take the matter in hahd, and call a public meeting to consider the. test Ways and means to assist our police in doing their duty. The publichouses ought to be closed when these men are in town. I understand the Mayor has power to do So, as at strike time. The conduct of a few is giving a bad name to the whole of the troops, also to our city.—l am, etc., A CITIZEN.
