rino the HONOURABLE the HOUSE of JL REPRESENTATIVES of the COLONY of NEW ZEALAND, in PARLIAMENT Assembled. The Humble Petition of the undersigned inhabitants of the Province of Nelson, Respectfully sheweth : — That your Petitioners are informed that it is intended to introduce, to your Honourable House, a measure for the division of the Province of Nelson into, two Provinces, 'or to take away a large portion of the Province." in order to add the same to the County of Westland. That your Petitioners believe that any such alteration would inevitably lead to a large increise in the Departmental Expenditure now found sufficient for the Government of the Province, and to a corresponding diminution in the funds now available for public works, education, and other important purposes. That your Petit'oners further believe that tha result of any such measure would be financkl embarrassment in both of the portion t of the territory proposed to be divided, to the almost total discontinuance of public works, to the suspension of permanent settlement on the Golafields now steadily going on, an-1 to great discouragemeat to the cause of Education. That your Petitioners also submit to your Honourable House that a great injury would be inflicted upon the South-we&tern portion of the Province, by separating it from a Province almost free from debt, in order to join it to a County involved in very heavy liabilities, which its resources have already proved insufficient to sustain. Your Petitioners believe that good Government is not so likely to obtain amongst a community whose pursuits are almost entirely of one character, whether those pursuits be purely mining, pastoral, or agricultural, as amongst a community whose pursuits comprise a fair admixture of all three, as is the case in the existing Province ot Nelson. Your Petitioners therefore pray that your Honourable House will not pass any measure for the division of the Province of Nelson into two Provinces, or for the alteration of the existing Boundaries. And your Petitioners will ever pray, &c, &c. 1712 FOWLS, &0.. TRESPASSING on my Property, Gloucester-street, after August 2, will be DESTROYED.— J. GUNTHER. 1702 N O T.I C E .
