ORIGINAL CORRESPONDENCE.
To the Editor of the New Zealand Spectator. Wellington, August 22, 1846. Sir, — In one of your Jate papers it is stated that a person was lately fined at Akaroa for selling spirits /without a license. Unlicensed grog-shops are to be found here in all direc '.ions, and it is very seldom that the authorities take any notice of it. In the town, but more particularly in the country districts, they abound. At the Hutt, Karori, but especially the Porirua Road, they are very numerous, the police are well aware of it, but probably do not consider it their business to lay an information. Whose business it is probably the Police Magistrate may know, at any rate I think an effort ought to be made to check a glaring nuisance, and which is daily increasing. Your's obediently, Observer.
