to explain the reasons of their votes. It is no U33 to you, and unsatisfactory to me, that your. § representative power is divided A great deaf 1 may be done for you by representatives who ( work together, and who honesty have your in- •-. terest at heart. The Goldfields are constant losers by political capital being made out of their alleged grievances. Those who are anxious to serve them, never know when a grievance is , real or is only a new cheque drawn upon the | political bank. The suspicion that representatives are self-seeking, 'is just as bad as the reality, for it destroys trust. Excuse my general- i ising in this manner': I do so in the hope that ( you will adopt my hint, and endeavour to get : representatives of one mind. I shall be delighted to join your other representatives in resigning ; and'though I should regret your nqt rq-electing me, I w«uld bow to such a r.esultiji preference to the present division of your representative power, which places you at an obvious disadvantage. " "™r~*r I must apologise for adopting this medium of communication. Soon I hope to Jhave the pleasure of addressing you personally. I have the honor, &c, JULIUS VOGEL.
