SIR, —Through your valuable columns I beg to lay before you the way the Government money in Port Chalmers i.-: disposed of. You may have noticed that tenders were called for a short time ago tor a cutter or schooner for the Pilot service, which vessel has been bought, tut requires to be fitted up. May I ask, is it not usual to call for tenders for the fitting of the same, and not allow a private individual to reap the benefit himself, and perhaps at a much heavier cost to the Government. This vessel has been bought privately. I wish as a public man and a resident of the Port to again urge the necessity of making public all matters connected with the disposal of the Government funds. ' '.... I am. Sir,- - Your's respectfully, A Resident of Port Chalmers. .
