To the Electors of the City of Auckland East. /"I ENTLEMEN, — I again offer my services as your XX Representative in the next General Assembly. lam neither a new nor an untried man. Besides the part I have taken in various public matters during many years past, I have had the honor to occupy a seat in the Assembly (with the exception of the period of my visit to England) in every Session since the proclamation of the piesent Constitution. Some of my constituents may, at times, have differed from me in the view I took of particular questions. It must of necessity be so in every case, when a man is actuated by what he conceives to be his duty rather than by a desire to secure votes. Of this, however, I feel confident that none of my constituents will deny me the attributes of a fearless and indejiendent man. I shall take an early opportunity of meeting the Electors for the purpose of giving full and frank explanations of any part of my public conduct that they may desire to have explained, and of stating the views I hold with respect to the future. Conscious that I have never ■wilfully betrayed your interests, or forfeited my claim upon your support, I again assume the position of a Candidate for your suffrages ; and remain, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, THOS. S. FORSAITH. Auckland, Nov. 19th, 1860.

To the Electors of the City of Auckland East. r\ ENTLEMEN,— At the request of many of my XX fellow-citizens, I beg to tender my services to represent your interests in the next General Assembly. Upon the great question which has agitated New Zealand — the Native War — I will support the present or any Ministry, who will prosecute the war until British law and authority shall be the only standard for both races ; but upon many other questions I am opposed to the present Government. I think their policy in many respects injurious to the Colony ; they have squandered the public money, — creating an enormous establishment, — and are still fast plunging us into debt. I will endeavour to bring the pulilic expenditure within proper limits : I think one-third of it might be cut off without injury to the public service. I believe it to be oL the greatest importance speedily to check tho encroachments of the General Government upon Provincial Institutions. I shall, if elected, use every means in my power for that purpose. I will also endeavour to procure for the Provinces the largest possible share of the Revenue of the Colony —a share much larger than that doled out to them by the General Government. If you honor me with your suffrages, you may rely upon an independent course of action upon every measure which may come under consideration. I am, Gentlemen, Your most obedient servant, T. RUSSELL. November 17, 1860.

To the Electors of Newton. f\ ENTLEMEN, —I beg to offer myself as a VJT Candidate for the honor of representing your new and rising district in the House of Representatives. At a time when the stability of our Provincial "Institutions is threatened, it is the duty of all who desire their preservation to come forward in their defence : should I be honored by your confidence it will be my endeavour to maintain the integrity of Provinces, believing that by so doing I shall be aiding to promote the true interest and the progress of the Colony of New Zealand. 1 have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, C. A. HARRIS. Vincent-stveet, 16th November, 1860. ,
