TO THE EDITOR. Sir,— ln your contemporary I hare noticed several letters lately respecting the Petroleum Company, I am not going to take either side of the question as I think that discussing the affairs of a Company in the columns of a newspaper is not the right thing. The Secretary of the Company is I believe always willing to give all information in his power respecting the affairs of the Company to Shareholders, if any persons are still dissatisfied let them call a meeting of Shareholders and state their grounds of complaint when 1 have no doubt the Directors will be able to satisfy them.—Yours &c., Shareholder. [We have noticed the letters alluded to by “ Shareholder ” and certainly think them piost unjustifiable. We are not in the confidence of the Directors, but we belidve they are honestly doing the best they can under very difficult circumstances, and with very little money. The supply of a manager is not their fault, still less is the engine. And the Road Board has as much to do with the Petroleum Company as the Goodwin sands have with Tentcrden Steeple.—Ed. S.]
