TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF CHRISTCHURCH. GENTLEMEN,— I beg to inform youthat it is my intention, on the return of his Honor the Superintendent, to resign my seat in the Provincial Council. My reason for this is, that I feel myself, from failing health, unequal to a punctual attendance at the evening sittings of the Council, during which the main business of the session is despatched ; and your interests are far too important to be left in the hands of any one who may not be able to be regularly and constantly in his place. I need hardly say that I greatly regret the cause that compels me to take this step; and in performing this act which terminates our political connection, I beg to convey to you the assurance that I shall ever retain a very grateful sense of your kindness during the somewhat lengthened period I have had the honor of representing you; and I shall especially remember with pride the flattering manner in which you always elected me when it was necessary for me to appeal to you. I have the honor to be, gentlemen, Your very obedient servant, JOSEPH BRITTAN.
