Smith containing fourteen pages of closely written matter, the burden of which was to refute the statements of Councillor Fish when moving the adoption of the Gas Committee’s report.

Blair, C, B.’s, reports of (he capabilities, &c., of the present gas works, would you allow me, through your paper, to ask the Council to get the aforesaid letter printed, so that the public may have the more matured opinion of so eminent an engineer before them and act accordingly. Yours, &c.| H, H. Dunedin, July Ist, 1870. [The advisability of printing Mr Smith’s letter Iwas suggested by Mr Carroll at the last meeting of the Council, hut the suggestion was not acted upon.—-Ed. E.ti,]
