' TO THE ELECTORS. p'ENTLEMEN,— I beg sincerely to thank you for the honor you have done me in electing me as one \of your representatives in the Municipal Council. This is a result I can conscientiously say I/lid not expect ; for, as a rule, journalists who pursue their profession fearlessly and independently, cannot avoid creating a considerable amount of hostility in various quarters— a disadvantage from which gentlemen engaged in mercantile and trading pursuits are wholly free. It is, therefore, most gratifying to me to find that,notwithstandingawell organised and exceedingly active opposition, I have been placed in such an honorable position by so large a number of the qualified electors. I am still of opinion that tho present election, in which only 117 -persons were permitted to vote, cannot be, considered as a satisfactory or conclusive reflex of the choi le of the ratepayers ; and I hope to convince my fellow Councillors that as soon as a Eatepayers' Roll has been completed, they ought to afford the whole body of electors the chance of confirming or annulling the acts of the present., limited jody of voters, by a new general election. ' , I am, Gentlemen, Yours obediently, , Wir. Shaw. Weld street.
