Again, Dunedin to Burnsicle any day, first-class return is Is ;■ Caversham to Burnside 9d each way—no return tickets issued save on Saturdays. Again, ono can get a ticket from Burnside, Abbotsford, or Caversham to luvercargill, but in returning from Invercargill the passenger must take a ticket right through to Dunedin.
. Surely it is time that such an unbuninoss like mode was done away with, and return tickets issued any day from any station to any station, t,Ke same as in Victoria ant! New South ■Wales. The instances quoted could be multi plied ad infinittat). —I am, &c, : April 15. John Andrews,
