CORONERS’ JURIES.
TO THE EDITOR OF TIIE NEW ZEALAND TIMES. Sib, —Can you inform rne if there is any rule for selecting coroners’jnries ? because it seems to me that those who reside or have places of business contiguous to the police station are the only persons summoned. I have no objection to serve in turn, but must protest againt the officer always waiting on my place of business in order to save himself a little trouble. I know gentlemen who have been in Wellington ten years who have never been called upon to serve, while it rarely happens that an inquest is held that some one from our house is not summoned.—X am, &c., Fair Play. Dambton-quay, May 30.
