No one regrets more than myself that any circumstance should have led lo Mr. Bartley's withdrawal ; the rcquisionisls, although few in number, would have been stronglv supported—for their choice of Mr. Bartley was highly approved by the bulk of the community, and it is well believed that no other man in the Province would have opposed Mr. Bartley, but Mr. Brown, whose unscrupulous friends no doubt promised him an easily won victory. Mr. Bartley should know that the New Zealandcr did not withdraw its support from him ; whatever support lias been given by it to another candidate has not been given tis aguinst Mr. Bartley but against Mr. Brown. So far as iam individually concerned, 1 would still, en several grounds, prefer Mr. Bartley for the office of Superintendent to either of the candidates in the field.— Your's, &c, J. Williamson.
