TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BAST COAST.

GENTLEMEN,— At the request of a large number of my fellow settlers, I have aonsented to stand for the district, I feel honored by the distinction of being asked to represent the district which I have lived in for seventeen years, and have seen so improved by settlement as to be one of the best in the colony.

I need hardly say that if returned I shall do my utmost (or the electorate, WbiU feeling that I should be greatly honored by being returned, I yet consider that Electors ere under an obligation to a Member, it he does bis duty, for the time, trouble, and expense be is put to on their behalf.

I regret that I cannot spare time at this busy season of the year to canvass, nor am I eg wealthy ae to be able to spend money over the eleetian.

I will at the larger centres o' population address the Electors and gjv? such informa, tion as to my political opinions as may be necessary, which, combined with a know, ledge of me that a great many of my fellow, settlers have, should be amply sufficient to satisfy Electors in voting. I should, if returned, expect to exercise entire independence iu my actions in Parlia. ment, using my judgment to vote aa I think right and beat suited lot the constituency. I am a believer in the present Government, with Sir Harry Atkinson aa Premier, though I should not be a blind supporter, I think the late addition to the Ministry and the new diatributiou of seats likely to strengthen the present Government) and I consider their steady conduct in the affairs of the country, particularly with regard to retrenchment, has materially resuscitated the credit of the colony. I am very much opposed to further borrowing. This country, I believe, is now recovering from the long depression, and only wants a continuation of the present careful management, and rest from experimental politics, to make great progress, not perhaps by leaps and bounds as formerly, bht surely, steadily, and on a firmer arid more lasting oasis, I should vote for reduction in taxation directly it ie possible, I believe in every facility being given tor men of email means to acqnite land, and that land tor such purposes should be opened tor selection wherever suitable. In Native land matters, after considerable experience, I believe in absolute free trade, removing all possible restrictions. I am a strong advocate of free education, but consider that under present circumstances the coat is greater than we can afford. From my long residence here, I know the district intimately, and our wants and interests are identical,

I fear that I am wanting in powers of oratory to do full justice to the constituency in Parliament, but whatever ability I may possess I should use it to the uitnost of my power tor the better of the country and the benefit of lbs district, A O, ABTBUB,
