LITERARY ASSASSINS.
■ TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEW ZEALAND TIMES. Sin, —I read in this evening’s Post an article alive with honest indignation against the anonymous stabbera of the New Zealand Press, The writer of a particular journal, the Rawjiora Standard, ia said to have been described impartially at a recent public meeting by two opposing candidates for the Electoral: District of Cheviot thus—By the one candidate, a Greyite, he was said to be “ one of the many hired libellers who ought to be in prison, and were not because they were too contemptible tor anyone to take the trouble to put them there;” by the Mother candidate, a Liberal, the said writer was described to bo “a man he would not- speak to at a dogfight.” Can this be the same writer whose opinion about the Pepepe Goldfields telegram adorned the columns of the Ministers’ newspaper here on .Wednesday last?—l am, &c., , , X. Alaatia, May 16, 1878. .
