SIR, — We, the undersigned, Electors of the Matanra District, respectfully request that you will allow yourself to be nominated as a Candidate to represent this District in the General Assembly, and in the event of your acceding to our request, we pledge ourselves to use our best endeavors to secure your return. Kenneth M'lvor, Robert Hamilton, John Dalgliesh, Thos. M. Macdonald, Sec., &c. To Messrs Kenneth M'lvor, John Dalgliesh' Robert Hamilton, Thos. M. Macdonald, and the other gentlemen who have signed the above requisition, and the electors generally of Mataura District. r\ ENTLEMEN,—^Tn obedience to the requisi\JC tion with which I have been favored, I beg to declare myself a candidate for the honor of representing you in the next General Assembly. As a settler in the district, my interests are yours, and it should be my first aim to promote our common prosperity. Admitting Public Works and Immigration to be among our most pressing necessities, I would yet have both prosecuted cautiously, and on a scale commensurate with the resources of the Colony. A liberal Land Law, involving the principle of deferred payments, and settlement on the Boil, j would, I think, prove the most effectual means of ' peopling the country. . While opposed to all burdensome protection, I should like to see imposed such moderate duties as might turn the scale in favor of Native Products and Industries. I should advocate financial separation from the North, and the establishment of one Central Government for each Island. I shall take an opportunity of explaining my t viewß to you personally, and I am, Gentlemen, j Your obedient Servant, | THOMAS DENNISTON.
