TO THE ELECTORS OP THE WAffiAEAPA, GentlemenIn view of the dissolution of Parliament, I have respectfully to intimate that it is my intention to seek re-election for the district which I have represented for so many years. It is my intention to hold meetings at the several centres of population, when I shall place my viows on matters both of local ami general interest fully before you, In the meantime I may state that I intend to give a hewty support to the programme of the Liberal party, including the repeal of the Land Tax, the imposition of a Property and Income Tax, the reduction of the taxation on the necessaries of life, liberal Laud Laws, Triennial Parliaments, the vigorous prosecution of Public Works, and other Liberal measures which were indicated in the Governor's speech at the opening of Parliament. I have the honor to he, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, HENBY BUNNY. Avgast 11th, 1579. 223 TO TRAVEL THIS SEASON IN THE WAIRARAPA. pBINCE pHABLEY 11. Will stand at the following places : Masterton—Town Hall Carterton—Public Hall Greytown-Town Hall Featherston—Odd Fellows' Hall. as your arm, He is by Money Bags out of Aristocrat.—(For further particulars sen N.Z.Bluebook).

Prmce Charlie 11, is a fmre/ooZ-getter, and his progeny will be celebrated, fov the following :-l, Splendid weight carriers—will carry any amount of burdens and therefore make flue bucks for squatters. 2, Cross any liver with safety—very fond of water and perfectly tractable. 3. Very cheap to keep-it's a wonderful thing what a Utile will satisfy them. Terms.— Two or more Mayors—according to valuation. Note.—Prmce Charlie 11. has made somo Bplendid performances, imongst others he has carried off the Provincial Stakes, the Wairarapa County Purse (double evenr), and the County Chairman's Cup,' t Ho has started seyeral times for the Wairarapa Derby, but being too heavily handicapped he has failed to pull off this event. He will run for it again at the coming races and stand to win on the teetotal ticket. Old Boney, his opponent, will have to look smart to beat him; but if the Prince fails i.ii this attempt, he will be run for the Legislative Plate which is a certainty for him. 252 IHE T)KASON U/HY DANCING CLASSES should uotvote for Mr Pharazyn for tke Assem'i ly, Because he is in favor of Local Hop Shun (Oh!) GOOD TEMM.4BB should not vote for Pharazyu as well as Beetham. Because they ought not to swallow P. B. Wateriiouse would have suited them best. This is the latest inn-telligence, and finishes the first suction. pERTAINLY.

The procession of Mr Bunny's supporters on tho polling day, will remind ns of a Grey, ito (great) work, viz,, "Bunnyim'sPilgrims "progress. It is a fact that tlie Cwect ? is in full bloom in the Wrararpa now. Yoit will find it tenderly twining around some dry sticks. Perhaps you. would like a (grog) blossom, If so, let a spray, as the man said in the Hall the other night. What an anomaly if the electors of this Siding vote for a Carter. The Cemetery Trustees will block-vote for Pharisee, as they are out of "painted sepulchres," and don't like to rob a poor man of his flier. Teetotallers cannot vote at this election, because they are not allowed to bo " on the roll" What did Mr 0, Phillips moan by his yarn about spelling pigs with two p's ? Surely lie could not have been thiuking'of himself and the other Mr P. mO THE ELECTORS OF THE 1 WAIRARAPA. Gentlemen— I invite your support for the MINISTERIAL CANDIDATES at the coming Elections.
