our circumstances. I should wish to see it placed upon such a footing, as that, without pressing with undue severity on holders of cattle, the occupiers of agricultural land might at the same time enjoy real and efficient protection. I have now endeavoured to touch shortly upou those points which appear to me of more immediate and every day importance. It has been my wish in what f have said, to state my views candidly and openly. It would be manifestly impossible for me within the narrow limits of a newspaper to enter largely into the discussion of questions of general policy. Where, as with us, these questions have not yet assumed the importance attached to them in the old country, it is rather confidence in the individual than the principles which he represents which will practically decide the issue. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your very obedient servant, Henry John Tancred.

I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your very obedient servant, Samuel Bealet. Christchnrch, Nov. 24, 1852. To the Electors of the District of Christchurch.
