THE COMING ELECTION.

(To the Editor of tbe Brening Star),

Sib, —I would go further than your correspondent" Juntas," and say that we must select a good man and true; a man who will not become the slave and tool of any man or party; a man of the most pronounced Liberal principles in politics; a man who can speak the English language properly; a man who has no bad or dishonest record against him; a man who has in no time of his life been obliged to run away from the place he lived in for years at a few hours notice, and not tell anybody he was going; a man who hat not climbed the social, ladder by, giving short measure to his customers, or at' the expense of his fellow-townsmen; a man who can stand up in the House of Parliament and say, fearlessly, " Gentlemen, I defy you to say one word against my character." This is the kind of man we want, and this is the kind of man I am going to Tote for. We don't want ft purse-proud domineering fool to represent vs —we want a man who will most ably and honestly represent the claims of this district, and support the present Ministry in carrying out those public works to which this district is entitled. to.—l am, &c, Semper Iduc.
