TO MR. THOMAS S. FORSAITH. July, 7th, 1852. SIR, — We the undersigned Voters in the Noithern Division respectfully request that you will allow yourself to be put in nomination as a Candidate for a seat in the forthcoming Provincial Council. We feel that you are well qualified from your long residence in the colony, and from the personal interest, as a landholder, you have in this Division, to represent its important interests in the Council. Joseph May, W. S. Grahame, Allan K. Taylor, Alfred Boon, Alex. Ueid, Wm Tye, James Simms, Joseph Osborne, Abraham Mears, Thos. Somerville, Joseph Newman, W. Buckland, Morris Kelley W. R. Gundry, Matthew Laurie,

To Thomas S. Forsaith, Esq.

Sir, — On behalf of lie Members of your Committee, I am requeued to say, that having had under our consideration a requisition presented to you from the Electors of the Northern Division, we strongly recommend you to accept the invitation. Our single object was to see a man whom we deemed so fit, occupying a seat in the Council, and as this object can, apparently, be gained without prolonging a contest in the city of Auckland, we think it a preferable coursp. At the same time, if you prefer a seat for the city, we have every prospect of success, and will not relax our exertions to ensure your return I am, Sir, Your obedient servant, Arch. Clark, Chairman of Committee. Auckland, July 8.

To Archibald Clark, Esq., Mayor.

Sir, — Having full confidence in the judg» ment of ihe Gentlemen whom you represent, I beg leave to adopt their recommendation, and at the same lime to tender my best thanks to yourself, my Committee, and my other friends for the energetic and efficient manner in which they have supported me. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your obedient servant, Thomas S, Forsaith. Queen-street, July Bth, 1852.

TO THE ELECTORS OF THE NORTHERN DIVISION.

fi ENTLEMEN,— Having submitted your vT request to the Committee who were undertaking my election for the City, I have, by heir advice, decided upon accepting the invitation with which you have honoured me. In doing $o, I have been partly influenced by the consideration that most of my time in New Zealand has been spent in the Northern Division, and that I have still large interests at stake in that district, and also by the fact that many of the gentlemen signing the City requisition, are equally interested with you in my return, as electors of your Division. Gentlemen, in offering myself as a candidate to represent you ia the forthcoming Provincial Council, I can only repeat what I have already said — that if elected I shall go into the Council with but one object — to repay your confidence by doing my duty independently and conscientiously. I disclaim all party feelings and prejudices, and will to the best of my ability, promote the interests of the Province generally, by supporting every measure calculated to advance the commercial, agricultural, social, and moral welfare of the community. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, Thomas S. Forsaith. Queen-street. July Bth, 1852.
