PRIVATE PRIZES.

To the EimoA

Sib, —In your report of ; the late Agri cultural Show, no mention, or in fact is the slightest reference made, of the many handsome and valuable prizes given by the merchants and tradesmen of Ashburton, and other gentlemen outside. ■; I think it is to the credit of the town and the several donors, that such a list of private.,prizes as appears in opening pages, of the catamgufl, should be, given, and T also think this about as little as yourr readers could reasonably expect of their local paper thattbe-givers, and receivers of those prizes should receive a place in the general report of the show. I think also, that a great mistake is made in not presenting a proper prize list" as in several cases many prize exhibits are entirely overlooked- in your report. I. am well aware that you are placed at a disadvan tage, from want of time, but the prize list could always appear in the following issue along with the report of the dinner. Perhaps these matters will receive your better attention when another year has comeroand. —I am, &c., G. Giimoue.

[We regret that the private prize winners and prize lists were not published in these columns for many reasons, but we can assure Mr Gilmour that on this occasion it was a pure oversight that the former were not mentioned, and owing to a rush of other matter on the following day the publication of the latter was again crowded out, in type, and was, thus'rendered too late to he of; interest to many of our readers. ' Aftgther., yfsj: [ I we hope to do better.—En. <?.}

THE RELIGIOUS ELEMENT IN THE APPROACHING ELECTIONS.

To the Editor. Sir,— There cannot be a more infallible. proof of a failing cause that the resort by its supporters., to expedients that , are reprobated by every one not wholly desti tute of' all moral sense: Therefore all lovers of true progress will hail with satis faction the recent attacks that have been made on Mr Ivess _by his opponents as evident signs of their weakness, although at the same time lamenting that any poli ticians should be so mean and base as to resort to such disreputable artifices. It is needless to say that I allude to certain attacks being made at the present time, by certain parties in the interest of the land ocracy, to make political capital out of Mr Ivess'religious views. The old question of Protestant and Catholic that has been the fruitful source of such endless feuds tmd misery as wo have witnessed from ■ time to time at Home is now endeavored to be revived in all its old intensity. Too ■ strong language cannot be used in con-
