THE WANGAPEKA DIFFICULTY.
To tub Editor of the Neison Evening Mail. Sir, — After reading the Cofaiist's delightful leader of yesterday, the first question presenting itself to my mind was, Why this haste to, get this unfortunate 130 acres proclaimed a goldfield? The Surveyor is out defining the boundaries, and his report is expected in the course of a few days, — why not wait for it? I feel sure that were the Government or the purchasers attempting any actioo, this is exactly what Mr. Luckie himself would say, and say it very strongly too. Proclaim all but this block a goldfield, and all reasonable people will go with you, but all the proclaiming in the world will not induce people to expeud labor and capital on land to which there is not a quiet title. Yours, &c., Anxiety.
