CHRISTCHURCH.
This day.
Mr Murray-Aynsley addressed his con stituents at Lyttelfoa last night. He referred to the unsatisfactory character oi the last session, owing to the waste o time compelling a deal of the business o the country to stand over. Sir George Grey's action in regard to the Waste Lands Bill he considered a most unheard of thing. The Hon Mr Fisher was next criticised. The Grey party had always been itching to steal the Canterbury land fund, and Mr Fisher said the Canterbury land fund would not be taken, but he changed his view when he had a seat in "she" Government, and now followed Sir G. Grey in everything. Had Canterbury members kept together, the land fund, though bound to go, could have been retained at least "" another year. He (Mr Aynsley) opposed manhood suffrage, but favored a! system of registering every property ovi aer and ratepayer. No vote was proposed to Mr Aynsley. The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the Chairman.
