I TO THE ELECTORS OF THE TURANGANUI DISTRICT. /GENTLEMEN, — Finding that the Provincial Council will meet during my absence in England, I deem it my duty to place my resignation at your disposal. J Owing to the Financial difficulties of the Province, I fail to see that more business can be transacted than the voting of official salaries and providing funds for the maintenance of Hospitals, Asylumns, Gaols, Ac., even if the Abolition of the Provinces has not occurred by that time. In case you should consider it advisable to | send some one to represent you (under these I circumstances) at the next meeting of the I Provincial Council, I leave my resignation in I the hands of my brother (Mr. Randall J Johnson.) During the short time I have had the I honor to represent you, I have exercised my I utmost endeavors to get the wants of the I District supplied and its grievances redressed. I I regret that the expenditure in your I district, has not been so large as I could have I wished, owing to the impoverished state of the I Provincial Treasury. But I would remind you that the Provincial I expenditure there (although small) has I been greater, in proportion to population, I than that in any other district of the Pro- I vines. This fact, I imagine, is due, partially, to I the Press in your district haying, from time to I tiiie, brought so prominently before the public I the requirements and grievances, as well as the I resources and advantages of the district; and I I hope you will believe, that, probably, to I some extent, this has been aided by my own I exertions, which I need scarcely assure you g hare always been used in behalf of the I district I have chosen as my adopted home. I Thanking you for the confidence yon have! always placed in me, I leave the matter I entirely in your hands. I have the honor to be Gentlemen Your Obedient Servant 403 JAS. WOODBINE JOHNSON.
