BOROUGH OF HAMILTON. . ELECTION OF MA YOB. JADIES AND GENTLEMEN,— Having acceded \to the. .request of tho numerous gentlemen *■ who signed the requisition that I would allow myself r to bo nominated for the office of Mayor, I beg now to offer my congratulations to the ratepayers of Hamilton East, and that their desire to have the two townships constituted a municipality ' has' been acceded to, and the more so* that. the. Government has placed &J-V&L& 43,000. upon the of a traffioQbridge to conaeqt.the two townships. * •--■ It may be fairly calculated, from the various estimates whioh hav.e\,been made by several engineers, th »t a wooden bridge, .suitable, for. our requirements, which would last for twenty years, can be constructed for. £7,000. Past experience of tho progress of Hamilton, and the - increase of traffio across the river, fully warrants the belief that time we shall be able to ereot a permanent iron structure with less difficulty than we:can a wooden one at the present time. Calculating the fcost wooden bridge at £7,000, the- Council; on behalf of the borough, would only have to borrow £4,000, the interest upon «rhich, at 6 per cent., would be-only £240 per annum, leaving a Snargin from the proceeds of the'toUs to pay off the principal; but, upon reliable information, I am informed that a loan can be floated at even less than 6 per cent. ,'lt would be useless at the present time to give a digest of what" I would propose, as the Council in a great measure will have- to be guided by circumstances. But for myself I can assure the "burgesses that, if elected, every effort shall be made to secure the reserves and other lands, so as to lighten the burden of the ratepayers, and, from the grants which have recently been made to other municipalities, there is every reason to believe that it will be done in our case.

I may state,' as I did in my former address, that I have a deep sense of the importance and responsibility of the office of Mayor, particularly at the present time, and that my interests are entirely bound up in the district. In conclusion, I can assure the hurgesses that, if I have the honor of being elected, I will do my utmost' to deserve the confidence reposed in me, and will endeavour to carefully. and economically administer the funds of. the borough, having duo regard to the interests of the various centres of population. I have the honor to be, Ladies and • entlemen, Your obedient servant, I. R. VIAIiOXT.
