THE LONG-TALKED OF HAMILTON PUBLIC HALL.
Srs, — Whtre is the Public Hall that was going to be built in Hamilton Wean, or was it only a dream 'hit hit led ma to imagine (hit some two •n <nths ago the prospectus of » public hall com puny was issued with a flourish of trumpets loud enough, not merely to hare blown down the walM of Jencbo, but; to have railed them up again? 'Yet,- somehow,' it has.it raised up so slender a tauUHug w a'Public H»ll in this capital of Wiukato **rhere all the wealth and blood and besuiy, an 1 all the enterprno and gonhead amartnesH of the country side a>e suppose 1 to hay* bee i. gathered together'to dazzle the eyes and asfoiish the weak nerves of les favored country settlements, iteally it is too bad of somebody -or lome'hing that no'furtlitr action has been (alcen in the mitt^r. The want of a Public H.i'l is really a great iuconvenience and loss. Divis, the ventriloquist and conjurer, I heir, vras to havo couio down hik! amused v->, but could not because the Hall was not. Next week it will be some other amusement we shall Jo-e because there is nut energy c ough to to on with a work which Te Awamutu and Alexandra have not 1 found too great far them. If you had a Public Hull m Hamilton you might at lease ha»e performed t h» graceful act- ot giving^your visitors from the frontier to-day a, aupper and ball brfore their return, as gome little oensolation for their drubbing on the on-ket field.— l fttn, &o , Stumped. February sth, 1576. [W» hare buildings quite large rnough for such a purpose, nevertheless we quite coueur with ourcocie^pondt-nt whose lettrr by the bye should have been inserted nearly a week earlier, m hi< remark that it is quite t;mn something was done in the matter of the Public Hall Company .— Ed, W.T.
