Mr field s letter to the county council says that be commuuicitted with Mr Gardener, town clerk. lie did not communicate with the county clerk. I will leave your readers to decide for tiieniselves whether .Mi" Field did his duty to the county council or not, when the object ol the natives' petition was in connection wih the Hokio Streamthat part ol the Rill that the county council was most interested in. Mr Gardener also wants to know if the communication in connection with the natives' petition had been received by Mr Goldsmith, do I think it possible that any one of the councillors would have attended?

[ d) not intend to write any further on this matter, but leave your readers to judge for themsplves. 1 am etc.. ■ FRED RETTISR.
