SEPARATION V. SUPERINTENDENCY.
To the Editor of the Evening Star, Siu, —Judging from the newspaper reports, it would seem that Messrs Prosser, Jago, and Stout, are specially wroth with Mr Macandrew, because he has not been able to work a miracle in*the matter of “Separation.” I should like to know if it has ever occurred to those gentlemen that when the Superintendent, his Executive, and the vast majority of the members of tie Provincial Council, were all happily agreeii g upon a resolution having this object in view in 1867, that one of their strongest opponet ts was Mr Donald Reid ? 'ibat, in fact, from first to last Mr Reid has notoriously been opposed to every movement having for its object that very “Separation” for which they seem to be so very anxious. Possibly however, this very fact may, according 1b the peculiar “logic” of this sapient triumvirate, be one of the very strongest reasoi s why they should prefer Mr Reid and reject Mr Macandrew. Elector.
