SOUTH WELLINGTON ELECTORATE. fi ENTLEMEN— The division of tho city vTT into separate electorates has compelled me to make a, choice between the East and We st sides of Tory-?treet. 1 have decided to solicit the suffrages of the Electors of Te Aro, but I hope to retain your goodwill and influence, for, believe me, gentlemen, I very keenly appreciate your approbation, and would do much to retain it. 1 say with all sincerity it is above measure pleasant to me to know that so considerable a number of my fellow-citizens deem me fit represent them in Parliament. I am, gentlemen, Yours faithfully, CHAS. J. JOHNSTON. To the gentlemen signing the requisition. TO THE ELECTORS OF THORNDON ELECTORAL DISTRICT. f^i ENTLEMEN,— At the request of my vTT friends, I beg to state that I now have fully determined to offer myseh* as a candidate for a soat in the Houso of Bepresentotivea for the above elect ,ral district. I shall avail myself of the honour of addressing you personally before the day of election. The principles I purpose enunciating shall be thoroughly radical. My supporters ara hereby cautioned not to pay any attention to stupid reports that I am only running as an advertisement to my business or in favour of any other candidate, as such reports are only malicious electioneering canards. Youra faithfully, THOS. DWAN. TO THE ELECTORS OF WAIKARAPA SOUTH. /¦"GENTLEMEN— In accordance with my VJT already published intention, I now beg to offer myself as a candidate for tho representation of your district at the coming general election. I cannot but regret the recent division of the old electorates, and in thiß expression I feel satisfied public sympathy goes with me — npt only in this, but in the majority of other districts of the colony. Union, and not dissension, should be the watchword of all the sections of such a district as this, as well as of all its settlers, whether living in town or country. Tho widespread feeling which has recently arisen that if we are to prosper as a colony we mu^t unite in developing the many natnral resources which lie in abundance around us, has found its expression in the prominence attained by the local government and other similar questions during last session of Parliament. Since becoming a settler amongst you, any services I may have been able to render in this direction have always mot with the most generous recognition ; and I can only assure you that if elected, no effort on my part will bo spared in assisting to place these all-important questions upon a satisfactory footing. The Native question requires more than passing notice. It is intolerable that the colony should be called upon to maintain a standing army at such a ruinous expenditure, and Te Whiti should be sternly told (in deeds, and not in words), that hia latest departure is in reality his la3t. Upon the other various questions which will engage the attention of electors, I shall be happy to explain my views at tho several centres of population in the electorate. Whilo freely acknowledging the important services rendered by tha. Hall Government at a critical period of tne colony's history, I shall decline to pledge myself to any party, but will 'give my support in the direction best calculated to develope the material interests of the country generally. I remain, Yours faithfully, W. C. BUCHANAN. THE MAYORAL ELECTION. TO THE RATEPAYERS OF THE CITY OF WELLINGTON. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN— A report having been put in circulation that it is sot my intention to contest tho coming Mayoral election, I desire to give such report an unqualified contradiction. I now beg to announce my intention of contesting the said election against all comers, and therefore respectfully solicit the votes and interest of the ratepayers as a body, particularly those who so faithfully supported me on the occasion of tho contest between his Worship^ — the present Mayor — and myself. Your 3 faithfully, ANDREW YOUNG.

It contains nothing that is deleterious, and may be safely mixed with food. Jt possesses the antiseplio properties attributed to it, and to a very remarkable extent. A tea-spoonful of a solution, obtained by dissolving four ounces in a pint of water, when added to a quart of fresh milk, will arrest ail change except the rising of the cream, and prevents the milk from turning sour or thickening when standing exposed to the air for a period of at least five days in warm weather. — James Hector."
