TO THE ELECTORS OF FRANKLY^.

f^i ENTLEMEN,— It has been suggested that Mr. \JT Gkorob and I should retire in favour of Captain Frasskr, of Tauianga.

Meanwhile, should Mr. Georok not retire, I respectfully request tbo^e votes for Captain FRAZisn that would have been given for, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, WILLIAM GOODFELLOW.

The gentlemen nominated yesterday, with tko exception of Captain Fi.izer and myself, repiesonted only one portion of an immense and extensive distriot They lepreaent only tho ngiicultural inteiest, an impoitant one; but conceiving that thete are other and equally important interests connected with Frauklyu, and having been irfyuosted to represent them I now pbco mys.

I eutiiely agro.o With the obseiv.v tionß made by Hie Kd\tn\> <>{. the Cross, on Monday last, with lew^rd, to, uho election of Captain Frazer. The vrtfois fal Vianklyn ought to consider the very g-reat importance of the Tautanga district, and that »ny mi -take or neglect made by them at this eventful peiiod may have a most prejudicial offecli on the destinies of the piovince of Auckland.

GENTLEMEN,— You will soon be called upon to OX3I cisc the privileges conferred by the Constitution in tho elcctton of a Repieseutative of yonr interests in the General Assembly, and, ajso. in the Provincial Council. Having been solicited to accept both these nominations I havo cmiaeuted to the proposal ; and, if necessary, vloiaand a, poll. Should you elect me as jour Representative, I shall strenuously urge tbe facility of access and great security of your splendid harbour, the salubrity of your clinyte a.ud fertility of tbe soil, which, I believe, Qiiiy requhes' some modification in the existing land laws (affording eveiy facility to tho*e who are witling to ieside on the land and cultivate it) to cause an immediate and large increase to your population and to the Electoral Koll, sufficiently preponderating over any obstacles tbat can be rniseii by the Southern portion of the colony to prevent Reparation, followed by effcoliYO a.nd economical Government for the fcfovth, in which I intend being a perm.in.ent resideut,

I lemain, Yours faithfully,

EDWIN OAKLEY.
