Having been One of the vefy earliest settlers to Port Nicholson, and knowing most of you well — perhaps my own opinions may also hot be unknown — I shall therefore not here enter into any protracted exposition. Hoping you will take care to elect fitj proper, and honest Representatives. I have the honor to remain, Your faithful servant, KENNETH BETHUNE.

Wellington Town Election.

HPHE Undersigned Committee for pro- *~ moting the Election of Mr. Kblham will sit every Thursday Evening, at Mr. Brown's,

Thistle Inn, at 7 p.m» The spontaneous support of the Electors is invited, as it is not Mr. Kelham's intention to undertake a personal canvass, considering that it intrudes upon theindependence of the Electoral Franchise.
