TO THE GENTLEMEN SIGNING THE REQUISITION.

f^\ ENTLEMEN,— I have much pleasure in \jf acceding to the request contained in your requisition. If I have the honour of being elected to represent you in the General Assembly, I will do my utmost to promote your interests and that of the other electors of the district of Raglan. I am, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, JAMES FARMER. May 3, 1867. TO THE RAGLAN ELECTORS. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. /^i ENTLEMEN",— When a man feels that he can VJT serve his country, in the remotest degree, surely a requisition should not be necessary to induce him to offer his services, humble though they be. I therefore come before the Electors of Raglan as a Candidate for their suffrages, it being my decided opinion that Country Districts should return Country Member*. As a settler of 16 years' standing, I am pretty well known amongst you, and, if elected, am determined unflinchingly to advocate whatever I believe to be for the good of this province and the colony at large. It the country is to be righted, it must be by rigid economy in every department— beginning at the top, and not at the bottom. If a permanent peace is to be established, it must be by showing firmly, kindly, but unequivocally, that British Law must rule supreme. If our people are to be rendered prosperous, contented, and htppy, it must be by their moral and intellectual elevation, and by giving every possible encouragement to agricultural pursuits. Unheeded grievances breed determined resolves. By the action of the Government we are driven to demand Insular Separation, and we shall get it. These, gentlemen, are my views, which I will maintain to the best of my ability, and upon which I solicit the suffrages of my fellow Electors. Although net possessing the tie of wealth, numerous and Btronger cords of consanguinity bind me to this colony — to live and die in it, and to use my best exertions for its peace and prosperity. I am iudependent of men or party, and intend to continue so. If my views coincide with yours, I ■hall be proud of your support; but if you choose another, you will do it from a conviction that he will serve you better, and I shall be satisfied. I have the honour to remain, Gentlemen, 1 our obedient servant, J. CRISPE. Mauku, May 6, 1867.

ARTIFICIAL MANURES! ARTIFICIAL MANURES. TO FARMERS AND OTHERS. W. J. HURST & CO. DESIRE to Call the Attention of Settlers to the following List of MANURES specially selected for their adaptability to the soils of this province, and with each of which Guaranteed Analysis can be obtained. DISSOLVED BONES, OR SUPERPHOSPHATE OF LIME. 30 Tons are Now Landing ex ' Mary Shepherd,' from one of the best Scotch manufactures, containing, by Dr. Andersons (F.R.S.) analysis, 2910 per cent, solvable phosphates, with 14 per cent, of ammonia. The value of this Manure for creating a rapid growth, and being obnoxious to the insect world, is too well known to require remark.

MALDEN ISLAND GUANO.

50 Tons, ex ' Hercules,' a direct importation, best known ag Phospho-Guano ; is said to have been uaed with much success in the other colonies. A copy of an article setting forth at length its virtues, from the local journals, can be obtained on application. It likewise, from its large per-centage of soluble phosphates, appears to warrant the conclusion that it is most valuable. BOLIVIAN GUANO Has been found to answer remarkably. A cargo is Bhortly^expected per • Waverley.' BONEDUST, From long and successful use, has justly earned the first place in the farmer's mind. It is the ambition of the undersigned to furnish them with a genuine, unadulterated article, and at the lowest rate possible. Fifty tons are landing ex • Kate,' of their usual quality, guaraateed free from foreign substances. W. J. HURST & CO., QUKEN-STH9?7, Opposite T. afid, 8.
