Such a candidate, we are satisfied, may he found in yourself, Sir, —and we scarcely hesitate to add. in yourself preeminently. Your long residence in this district. your constantly manifested interest in i its prosperity, and your extended and wellearned popularity, would of themselves have I been sufficient la indicate your great fitness j for the office; but when to these considerations we add the very acceptable and harmonizing manner in which you have performed the duties of the Lieutenant-Gover-norship of New Ulster during the last two years, we find in yon a combination of qualifications <mch as certainly are not united in any other person, and such as we are sure would command all but universal support. j We therefore. Sir. respect fully and earnestly request that yon will allow yourself I to be put in nomination for the office of j Superintendent of the Province of Auckland. John Salmon (Here follow 503 other Signatures.) TO CAPTAIN SALMON AND THE OTIIEU REQLTSIONISTS. Gentlemen, I have had the honour to receive your very nattering invitation to allow' myself !o be put in nomination for the office of Superintendent of the Province of Audi- j land, and I have to thank you for the manner | in which yon have testified your approval of my administration of the affairs of the Province of New Ulster, during the period for which T had the honour to hold the office of Lieut.-Governor. I have not been insensible. Gentlemen, of the importance to the Province of securing, if possible, for the administration of its affairs, a candidate in whose behalf the sympathies of men of all classes and all political views may he united; neither have I been disposed lightly to esteem the honour which will be conferred upon him who may be the subject of their choice. Still I have felt myself I compelled by various considerations more J than once to decline to allow myself to be I put in nomination ; seeing, however, that upwards of fixe hundred of Lite inhabitants | of the Province, comprising men of various classes, and various political views, have united in recording their conviction that I possess a combimition of qualifications for the newly created office, calculated to command ail but universal support, ! can no longer refuse to undertake its duties, should the suffrages of the Electors be given in my favour. i have the honour to be. Gentlemen, Your very obedient servant, R. 11. Wynyard. Auckland, I9lh April, 1855. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE PROVINCE OF AUCKLAND. O ENTLEMEN, —It was not my intention ‘ * to have solicited, thus early, yonrsufira- j ges for the cilice of Superintendent of this j Province under the new Constitution ; but, as j a Candidate lias already come forward, 1 am , induced now offer my services for that very arduous and important trust. As my views and exertions during so many years, for the advancement of this Province, have been so fully and so frequently before you, I deem it unnecessary to advert to them further than to emark that they offer the best guarantee for my future efforts. I need scarcely say, that the altered circumstances, may, and, no doubt will, demand a very different course of action for the future; but I may assure you, that should 1 be honoured with your suffrages, the same unwearied exertions, singleness and sincerity of purpose, shall be devoted to the promotion of the general welfare and to the advancement and prosperity of our adopted country.
