To Correspondents. The New-Zealander.
The letter of " Philo-Jletoikos" is not a reply to o»r coi respondent X, but r.nlier a complaint that he did not do (what .avowedly was not his object) — i.e. entei into a contioversy with " Metoikos" on the particular question to which that writer has duecinri hisatti'ntion. Had '' l'hilo-Meioikos" discussed, with a courteous avoiding- of personalities, the real points urged by X, we couid have had no objection to the insertion of his commtmicition; but as he meiply '' says ditto" to his fiiond " Metoikos," his letter •would find its more appropriate place in the columns of our contemporary, whence the thunder has gone forth of which " Plulo-Mutoikos" gives us the faint echo.
