To the Electors of Wellington.

/^[.ENTLEMEN — A vacancy having occurred in your Provincial Council by the retirement of Mr. G. Moore, I take the earliest opportunity of offering you my services as one of your Representatives. Being one of your earliest settlers, and per* sonally known to most of you, it becomes less necessary for me to enter upon those detailed explanations, which would otherwise be fail ly

-expected. At the same time, I will take the opportunity of declaring briefly, but emphatically, my cor•dial support of those liberal political opinions which are now happily in the ascendancy in this Province. I am, and shall continue to be, a supporter of the present Government, so long as their policy continues in accordance with those liberal institutions which they have so successfully inaugurated. It is from a conviction that tny lengthened experience, with regard to the surveys and capabilities of the Waste Lands of the Province, will be of practical service in Council, that I now offer myself as a Candidate ; and, should I be elected, I can with confidence refer to that independence of character which, I trust, has ever distinguished me amongst you, as a guarantee that I shall discharge my public duties in a faithful and liberal spirit, I am, Gentlemen* Your most obedient servant,
