THE SUPERINTENDENCY.

It will be seen by an official notification from the Returning Officer, which appears in our advertising columns, that the stale of the Poll for the respective Districts, and of the Gross Poll, will be formally declared at the Hustings in this City, at noon on Tuesday next. This, we presume, is in conformity with the 40th clause of the Regulations, which provides that the u Principal Returning 0 cer, as soon as he has received from the several Returning Officers of each Electoral District in the Province, certified copies of the stale of the Poll in each District shall openly declare and publicly notify the same; and shall at the same lime openly declare and publicly notify tSio name of the person who may have been duly elected al such Election by a majority of the voters of the whole Province , to be the Superintendent thereof,”

All the Returns have now', of course, hcmi received. At the Bay of Islands, we understand that—owing to the success of certain persuasive influences in either turning round or neutralizing voters who had been confidently relied on as supporters of Colonel Wynyard—Mr. Brown had a small majority. The numbers are stated to have been, Brown, 51 ; Wynyard. 43. However, we shall be in a position to stale in our next the particular's from the several Districts according to the official declaration. Meanwhile we gather from the best information which has reached us that the Majority of Colonel Wynyard will he found about One Hundred.
