To the Gentlemen signing the foregoing Requisition, ' and other Electors of the Suburban District of Auckland. Gentlemen, — Whatever disclina'ion I may have previously entertained against entering the arena of Colonial Politics, the flattering requisition you have done me the honour to address to me, and the'peculiar juncture of Colonial Affairs, induce me, at once, to assent to your wishes, and to announce myself as a Candidate for the representation of the Suburbs of Auckland in the forthcoming Provincial Couucil of New Ulster. As one of the early Pioneers drawn towards New Zealand in its earliest period of British settlement, I have necessarily acquired an intimate personal knowledge of its past history, and may therefore be presumed to be competentjto form a tolerably correct estimate of its present wants and future requirements. Whatever measures may be brought before the Council, calculated to advance the prosperity of the colony, shall, in the event of my election, command my caieful and unbiassed consideration ; forwhatever course I may deem it my duty to pursue, you may feel assured that your intetests shall be as sedulously and conscientiously guarded as my own — indeed they are identical. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, J. Logan Campbell. July 8, 1b52.
