"Wanganui, March 10, 1802. Mr. Editor, —Seeiug some remarks in your last issue (having reference to iny letter of Feb. 20th), signed with the inisnomer of “Amicus Justieiie,” I beg to state that I consider the actions of gentlemen officiating judicially are fairly open to criticism, and if, as lie intimates, cheap j'ustiee i 3 not justice, the sooner they are remunerated the better. I caunot agree with his droll notions of justice, as by them, when one man leaves his house, another has a perfect right to step in, and the owner cannot expel him without exhibiting his title deeds, &c., &e. I cannot understand what his friend Tom Nok.es or the days of yore have to do with the question. For his information, I beg to state tbat I remain, Semper Idem. p Wanganui, . ’llth March, 1862; ; Sir, —When-will the encroachments of the military cease? They are employed about town as labourers, &c., &c.—have fenced in land belonging to absentees, without permission, and then compete with our hard-working settlers on very unequal terms; and now I hear they are about appropriating the practice ground of our Rifle Volunteers. The sooner all these things are stopped the better. • Pro Bono Publico.
