TO THE ELECTORS FOR THE CITY OF AUCKLAND. r>TENTLEMEN,—On behalf of the ComvJf" mitlee of the Operative and Laboring Classes, I have to thank you for the liberal manner in which you have supported I lie Candidate brought forward to represent the interests of the Working Classes in the forthcoming Provincial Council. And also, to congratulate all lovers of freedom and independence on the great principle established, that all have a right to be represenled. The liberality of the Franchise, and the abolition of the Property qualification, as proclaimed in the New Constitution, was an opportunity not to be lost. That opportunity we have profiled by, by the return of one of ourselves, and it is now for the Working Men of Auckland to assist in maintaining the position already gained. Alex. Black. Chairman of Committee. Auckland, 21st July, 1853. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF AUCKLAND. GENTLEMEN,— Courtesy seems to demand that I should, through the Press, 4iank my supporters for the honor they put upon me on Wednesday. In this public manner, then, do I render my hearty thanks to the two hundred and fifty-five who, without solicitation on my part, and without putting use to the expense of one shilling, recorded their votes in my favour. I thank them, not only for the honor they conferred upon me personally, but for that manifestation of their attachment to the cause of Independence. I was at the bottom of the ; oil; not because 1 held opinions at variance with those of the electors generally; not because I had violated a principle; not because I had broken a pledge—but because I claimed the right to think on all questions for myself, and to act on my own convictions. Too late it was discovered that I was an "admirer of Burns." I do admire him, and for nothing more than for his manhood ; and though at this lime 1 have sustained a reverse, yet, conscious in the integrity of my own purpose, and knowing by how many my motives arc appreciated, I can lake up the words of the Bard and sing—- '' A man 's a man for a' Ihal." I am, Gentlemen, Auckland, July 22, 1853. Arcu. Clark.
