To the Editor of the New Zealand Spectator. Wellington, 20th January, 1851.
Sir, — It does not require any great penetration to see that a cettain moustachioed medical gentleman, a member of the Provincial Council, is actuated by a spirit of jealousy in taking so active a part in the affairs of the Colonial Hospital, He wishes to discover something agains; the Colonial Surgeon that will lower his character in the public estimation, or injure his reputation. A secret malignity manifests itself throughout the whole proceedings, in which it were more cieditahle to him he had not taken so prominent a part. He may even attempt to veil it with the affectation of an ardent desire to benefi' the public ; but the 'hidden rancour is too strong, and the veil too transparent. I am Sir, Your obedient servant, FAIR PLAY.
