ADVICE TO ELECTORS.

Ki.KCTOH*. you should all rcjoico, Ttiat, one ni'm; you liavt! K"tyour choice ; Since it (lej)cml> upon your vi-ico, I). iii't l)i! mi-led by empty S' minis. Or foolish talk, of leaps end bounds ; Chonsrt n«»\v, nn economic grounds, Ami go a steady pace. No doubt it earned you some surprise, And, rather opened all your eyes, To find so lame a balance lies, The wrong side of the book. S’ou’ve bad you (ling ! and cut a dash ; id old mother has been rash To lend you such a lot of cash ; But that you’ll overlook. 3.

On strict economy is bent: Turn over a new leaf. 4. lietreuchmont, now is all the cry, But when yon shout, don’t wink your eye, As if, by that you would imply A counter intimation. Knock off, as quickly as you can The pay of uv’ry useless man ; Then, trim the rest upon tire plan Of your association. I’ll tell you what! ‘ twist ymi and mo, Pew like to serve without a fee ; They love their country’s L. S. Id. More, than their country’s good.

A word or two of Mr Vailo : 1 do not think his plan would fail, If, Government upon the rail, Would give it a fair trial. Try it, on your Waikato line ; To do so ; you must all combine, And Government would scarce decline. In fact—take no denial. !). The wiseacres said Rowland Hill, Had gone stark mad about his Bill But ho stuck to his purpose till At length he gained the day. The Penny Post became at last A fact established linn and fast, To benefits, to man, so vast Nought else has led the way. 10. Although I had much more to say, I’ll leave it till another day, I'ideas the Editor says nay, And wont my verses print. Perhaps ho thinks I am a bore, For telling what you know before, And if bo says he wants no more. Why, I must take the hint. Nemo.
