Electoral. nno THE ELECTORS OF THE) TOWN OF ONEHUNGA. Gentlemen,—The strenuous efforts that were made during the recent Beßsion of Parliament by the Government and a majority of members of an expiring House of Representatives to overturn abruptly a primary part of the Constitution under which we live having failed, an opportunity will shortly be afforded you of expressing at the hustings your opinion upon the attempt to strip the people of important privileges without consulting them and obtaining their consent. The dissolution of Parliament presents you with that opportunity; and I now appeal to you to justify me, and io resect the affront that was offered in striving to keep the people muzzled while the Constitution waa being torn to pieces. As your Representative, I felt it to be my duty to co-operate with those who determined to have recourse to all the means which Parliamentary forms afford, of preventing the Abolition of Provinces Bill becoming law and taking effect until the people of the colony should be heard on the matter. The1 attempt to filch from this Province the remnant of Local Government and legislative functions Btill left to us has been generally condemned, and it should be the duty of the newly-elected members to combine and device means for elevating the Province from its embarrassment and depression. No lover of the Province of Auckland can he content with the present posture of its affairs; and every 1 friend of freedom and indep»ndence within its bounds ought to shrink from allowing its destiny to be controlled by the hands of men either ignorant of or hostile to its aspirations. Through the insidious and encroaching legislation of the General Assembly, we hnve,rjeen s'ripped of a due share of the revenues raised within the Province; we'have been despoiled of possessing the capital of the Colony. We have indeed been bumiliated.'so far as this could be effect" by adverse influences. J' To redress our wrones through the medium ril tne General APsetobly's legislation is hrpelesii of the plans that have been "propounded for »econvnlißhlrg this redress, my own predilection te in f»vo« o{ erecting the Provincn of Auckland into a separate Colony, so that all matters affecting the interests bf tbe Province fhall b» legi'lated npon within the Pfovince, and under the eyes of the people of the Province. , Should, however, the current of political thought set unmistakably in favour ot the separation of the two Islands, I would aw-pt that scheme, rather than lorger put up with prostration of our Provincial Oovernment,,?' 6ow. to the Abolition project, which tears from oal the last shrt ds of independence. Better llve order a Russian despotism, if impartial, than the flcmineeism prepared to supplant our elective Superintendent and Provincial Council. I purpose, if you think fit again to elect me youi representative, to support, in no niggard spirit, tin Bchemo 0! poHejr «hw)owed forth bf otuf Bupwrln t«&fls»t, B& atßtge fiwi width I fe«r« M&t to I prut** j m*, I }km. &*to -IiWW M «*&«i!S m
