VERY SERIOUS, IF REALLY TRUE.
To the Editor of the Evening Star. Sir, — I am surprised to learn from your contemporary of this morning that your City Mayor, on Saturday last, actually sentenced a mair named Hayes to six mouths’ imprisonment in consequence of his not being known to the police. Now, sir, as this appears to me to be a very serious consequence indeed to result from so pardonable an offence, you would much oblige me and my fellow shipmates if you will kiudly indicate the most ready means of procuring an introduction to the whole body of your police en masse, as a month’s imprisonment in consequence of not being known to them is no joke. Yours, &c, - • ' New Arrival, Dunedin, October 31..
