TO THE EDITOB. Sin, —Between Tologa Bay and Awanui, a distance of some 60 miles, there are four houses of accommodation for travellers some of which a correspondent (for “ Settler ” writes in the plural) in your issue of the 3rd inst., as “gambling pubs,” &c., and proceeds to draw an invidious comparison between the time when Captain Gudgeon was R.M., and the present.

Settles. East Coast, 9th Dec.
