TO THE ELECTORS OF WAIKOUAITI, RESIDING IN DUNEDIN. GENTLEMEN,— I beg most respectfully to request that you will do me the honor of meeting me on Tuesday evening, 7th December, when I propose to address you on public affairs. I ask your permission to include in this invitation all those who may wish to hear what I have to say. The time is indeed a critical one for m all. I entirely deny that we must choose between Separate n or Federalism on the one hand, and Centralism on the other. I belong to that party of politicians who are Abolitionists and not Centralists—who mean by Abolition not central rule, but local management—who object to the disintegration of the existing Provincial divisions—who want to keep what is left of our 1 and fund, and hold what ▼/e can of our immense contribution to the reTenue —who. think that the crying want of the country is retrenchment in.expenditure and simplicity of aclmmiatx’ation; and who, however well they know that the public fintnee is in a critical state, would yet far rather continue for another ten years the financial shifts and evasions of the past few sessions, than Lt the whole business ot the country be ever earned up to Wellington. Axeturn to Provincialism as it was is ixnfiossible ; but I hold that rn political danger Doming ahead is at all equal to the danger of trying to set up a new Pioviucul r y-tun'in its place. The Centralists, pure and simple, will again hail a cry for Separation with delight, as they have ever done before. I wish to speak with respect of any proposal for Otago that comes from Mr Miicandmw ; but it is as certain now as it has a sways been that no Separation Bill nor Federal Bill will ever be passed in both Houses of our Parliament as at present constituted; and rhat a Separation struggle can only; play into the hands c f the few -vno would yield up North and South alike to the rule of a Central Bureaucratic organisation, already too compact, too secret, and too powerful. Must this great Province be for ever torn by Internal dissension ? Is there no possible common ground on which we may at length cease to present the silly show of an eternally divided body, powerless before those who from other Provinces bring in every session a united phalanx on every question that touches their interests? It is in the hope■ that one may be found, that 1 seek a place in the next Parliament. I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your faithful servant, FRANCIS DJLRnN BELL \> CiAV.'k .Iv,)av J~*:. 4 ERR SCHOTT . begs to intimate to his pupils and the public that he Las transferred his Academy of Music to his residence, in Lower York place, opposite Smith street.
