FACTS ARE STUBBORN REALITIES.
To the Editor. Sir, —As as a proof that Provißcialists have had their fling, the following short criticism will bear the light of day. During the late political meeting held in the Hoslyn Hall only thirty or forty electors at most eould he found to exhibit any interest or curiosity in the proceedings. Such, sir, is one aide of the view. To a requisition having for its object the Eaikorai Valley Branch Railway over two or three hundred signatures were readily and easily procured in order to carry out its purport at Wellington ! Such, sir, is the other side. Now, if the latter number are able to raise an influential document such as that, does it not tend to prove how weak and forlorn the object of the former is when compared ? Truly, it must be admitted Abolitionists have the whip-hand if they only use discretion in their actions, and in carrying out their determinations.—l am, <£c., Spnnysidb. September 14.
