Becent events hae • caused me to hesitate as to .the expediency o; wasting bo much of my time on public affairs, with tbe prospect of a want of unanimity in fthe public mind as to the course representatives ought to pursue, for I feel convinced that neither in the General Assembly nor Provincial Council can we expect to have r our .interests attendee! to, unless oh cardinal points,' specially affecting jour welfare, our representatives can be found tc work heartily together. With this short explanat ion I beg to comply with venr request, and jwill take an early opportunity of explaining what ' views I hold on f those political matters .which may be expected to engage the public mind during the ensuing elections. ■ | Tarn; Gentlemen, ~." - '• V" Yonr obedient - Servant, W.
