FIGHTING GEORDIE.
Sir,— What a dear old brother Sir George U ! If the present GoTernment remain in power, which there is every likelihood of their doins, and suppoie them uarrow-minded enough to retaliate upon this part of the colony for the childish failings of its preient ruler, what a large ihare of tho good thing* of thU life wo will oomo in for next tession. C*n you inform your readers what became of the Commissioners Bent to look into' our wantg and requirement!. Sir, what will become of ua if they return to the Metropolis of the South, frightened by the bluster of the autocrat of the Central Committee, and inform the great financier that the intended President of the future Northern Bepublic had warned them off hia territory that ia to be. We trust entirely to you for news, political and otherwise, nerer aeoing an Auckland paper. A dark and terrible suspicion has taken poueinon of our mindt ; the dr«ad that haunti vi it that dear old 3ir George has taken possession of the persom of the unfortunate Commissioner*, •hipped them off to the Kawuu, and th«rehold« them as hoitages to keep in check any aggiMnra movement made by the South during t» impending struggle for independence. Clear up our doubt and we will pray that your ihadoir may neitrgrow leas. -I am, &c., Lunatic.
