THE VOICE OF VFE COUNTRY

The orrlenl is almbst at an end, and so far the Liberals hare no caiise ; to regret the appeal to the country. Auckland— noble AncVland— has been true to the core, and m the whole Provincial District the Tories have not been able to obtain one solitary seat. The City East and City W^st have- sent three soldiers to fight under the banner of Liberalism, and Edr»n, East Coast, Newton, Onehunga, Parneil,Eodney, Thames, W-aite-mafca, Waikalb:,; and ;"VJTai'pn f .jvayp all sent representaHvfis to form the Liberal Contingent. While not a single supporter of the Government of any note has been rebooted, no less than three Cabinet -Ministers 'of the 'Opposition have received their congS —Sir William Fox, at Wanganui ; \ir. Wliittaker, at Edon ; and M>. J?iehai*dson, . at Christchurch. .The.first.named has been teles;ated to.obsciirity by the man,wj\om he has persistently ; .vilified and . hel^ up to spprPi, s^nd, the people -tpiiwhom, Mr. ;B^lJance, ; :-FaBJ.vW *hifp^to .tlieir . ;: heart, saiid ! cbrisigne^d his calnmniator.to political oblivipnv What ape icpnsidered ills of.t.tiines' prove the rewei:se> and judging f rpm the experience o_f the Sixth Parliameiit the ostracisation of Sir Wiiliiam ; Fox is. the greatest blessing i .^hicb. .. could, . have, befanea- him.
