TO THE ELECTORS OF THE DISTRICT OF THE OTAGO GOLDFIELDS. GENTLEMEN,— I have the honour of \Jf availing myself of the only means at my command of expressing my regret that the time at my disposal does not enable me to meet personally my constituents. I hope, however, that in the course of a few months, although I shall not then have the honour of representing you, I shall enjoy an opportunity of visiting the Goldfields. Meanwhile, allow me to observe that although I shall not seek to be reelected by you, I shall continue to feel much interest in the constituency, and I shall desire to promote its interests whenever I shall be able to do so. I have to express my sincere thanks for the consideration which has been evimed to me since I have had the honour of being your representative. The form of my present address precludes me from entering afc length into the question of the very important bearing the policy of the Government and the measures passed by the Assembly last session must have upon the Goldfields. But I may say, with some pride, that in framing measures devised fur the benefit of all classes and all interests in the Colony, there was a strong desire to give to the gold mining interest that recognition to which its importance entitled it. The Government are very anxious to procaed with the construction of works for the supply of water on Goldfields, and I much regret that the hostileaction of the present Provincial Council will prevent such works being undertaken until a new Council shall have been elected, and the opinion expressed by the existing body shall have been reversed. As there have been circulated very many misrepresentations respecting the nature of the measures passed last session, I have t<> ask that you will be good enough to read the report of the meeting which I addressed in Dunedin on Tuesday evening, the 13th inst. In the course of my speech to that meeting, I entered at some length into an explanation of those j measures, and as I am causing a number ! of copies of the report to be sent to the different parts of the Goldfields, I have no doubt that anyone who desires to read it will be able to obtain a copy without difficulty. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your very obedient servant, JULIUS YOGEL. Official Agent's Office, Princes-street, Dunedin, Dec. 13.
