ELECTION NOTICES. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF DUNEDIN. ENTLEMEN—It is my intention to ofiVr myself as a Candidate to represent you in the next Provincial Council. I will take the earliest opportunity of addressing you on the various subjects of public importance which are likely to engage the attention of the new Council. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF DUNEDIN. Yours obediently, CIBSON K. TURTOV.

GENTLEMEN,— I beg to intimate that it is my intention to ask for a renewal of your confidence, and to solicit your suffrages in my support as one of your representatives at the ensuing election of Provincial Councillors. When you did me the honor of returning me on a previous occasion, I was not pledged in favor of any party, but I undertook to promote generally a wise and liberal administration of affairs, and I gave my support to the late Executive under Mr Reid, and assisted in the settlement of the vexed question of the waste lands. I have found that otherwise that Executive had not the capacity for government, or foresight and breadth of view which were requisite for the prosperity of the country, and I have, therefore, been desirous to see the reins in the hands of men who appeared to be more capable, from their enterprise and ability, of rendering efficient service in the onward progress of the Province. The policy indicated in the opening Address of his Honor the Superintendent at the recent session of the Provincial Counci', fully justified my preference. That policy would have received my hearty aid, and I regret that upon any pretext impediments should have been thrown in the way of its practical operation for a single day. In the event of my being returned the measures proposed will have my energetic support. There is no doubt that the burlesque of responsible government, which makes the Provincial Council a field of intrigue for personal ends, is very detrimental to the public interest. I shall willingly co-operate in any movement which shall have for its object a remedy for such an evil, and which may enable the business to be better and more expeditiously transacted. To secure a continuance of our present prosperity we must not be slow in extending our railway system, in improving our roads, in deepening our harbor, in affording facilities for settlement, in encouraging local industries ; and if you again place me in the honored position of your representative these matters will command my earnest attention. A judicious expenditure of our means on reproductive works just now, will not only make employment abundant at present, but will be the best guarantee in the stimulated development of our large resources, that we need have no anxiety for the future. Owing to the exigencies of the public service, I may not have the opportunity of meeting with you personally before the election, but I rely with confidence that my numerous friends will exert themselves in ray behalf, and that my absence will not be in any way prejudicial to my success.

1 bave the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your obliged and faithful servant, JOHN BATHGATE. , THE PROVINCIAL CRISIS.
