To the JBtlUor of the IBnel-es Jio’j Times.
Sit;, —In the Times of tin; loti', inst, I observed a letter signed “ Mercantile,’’ with reference to the Post (/like being opened on Sunday:-, when a mail arrives on that .lay, for the delivery of letters. &C. As a mercantile man of some years" standing', I quite concur with the purport of the letter, and in justice to Napier, ns a progressing and churchgoing community, I trust it will cease to prove an exception to oilier colonies, with their population of throe and live hundred thousand. The request made. I hope will receive attention in an ruber quarter, being rather surprised that the (pies)ion remaiie'd so long without being mooted by our worthy and respected Clergymen, who show every desire to improve and influence the strict observance of the Sabbath day. 1 remain, we.. Observance. Napier, Nllh Pecemher, iHilg.
