As however^ I cannot hope to find time, to visit the remote portions of the province, I avail nij-self of this means of.brjefly;.stating with what views, I should, if elected undertake that onerous office. /jAithottg)}" jjot;estimating so'highly, as many arc disposed ■ tp4o, the,influence : of the Superintendent in creating or retarding Provincial progress, on the other hMd^l.deem.ifc^great.'n.ii.stake.to suppose that the functions of a -'Superintendent are unimportant or chiefly of a negative character. Many active duties -dev«lve-on- the Executive of an infant province. which have no parallel in those of the Government of, an ...old settled country. It is justly required of a Government suoha,s ours hot only to remove obstructions'from industrial progress, but also to initinto measures of various kinds, direotly tending to its development. Among the duties, of a Superintendent are. the.. devising.measures for. the extension of tho ; .settlement; .the creation of new, centres of population ; the origination of now lines of communication : the suggestion of means whereby the vast national estates, the Waste lands of the country, whether agricultural, pastoral, or mineral, may bo most readily made to promote the general prosperity. 1 should think it my chief duty, therefore, to visifc, and,' as far as possible, to auive at an'intimate ncqnaintanee.with, the wliole territory within the'limits of the-province, so as to be Enabled to organise" plans ' for'the.exten'sion of thu settled ponions, or for the improvement of the unsettled portions of the province : ro' form -«■ just"vsiima'fo" of the v/tmm.v su^gesfTon))" of others: to recommend> jiis!, divisiin arid expenditure of the Provincial funds, so far as they are devoted to that purpose, on the various jutl.lie works: to be enabled to judge of the relative weight of tin; numberless claims on the public purse; and generally, how host to extend the population and revenue:* of the country, and how to turn the existing revenues tot-he justest and wisest account.. The various.materials of wealth and prosperity Ho in ali directions around us; and we require capital and laborto develope them. The introduction of both rests in a ! arge meusnre on the Executive; that of tlio first by giving every just facility to those' willing to invest their capital-among v?, and of the second by the adoption and pursuance, ns the needs of the settlement demand, of a judjeious schome of lin:nigra'.ioii. llie capitalist nnj>ht thus be eneoura-cd to look for a remunerative field for his capital, while the working iian would .still enjoy a field for his labors mere abundant than the present, and, at the-least, oqnallv remunerative. Now .that the Gold-fields have been again brought, io.soj.no extent, under thel'rovinctal insnagemcnt, I shouM.niake it a fust duty. ?n she event of" niv eleciion, to become acquainted with these.most important find promising centres of industry and wealth. The duties above", indicate:!, in connection with the ordinary ro.utin.e of carrying hito execution the will .of tl:c Legislature, evidently demands the whole thoughts, and .energies rf whmnsoever may ii:i the )fiiee of Superintendent, as well as the wliole of his tinic.
