To the Electors of the Central District of the Province of Otago. f^i ENTLEMEN,— I beg to propose myself as vX a Candidate for the representation of the Central District in the Piovincial Council, at the coming Election. Having resided in the colony for a period of nearly seven years, and having a considerable stake in the Province, I am persuaded that both your agricultural and pastoral interests are not unknown to me. Steam communication with the other colonies of New Zealand, and with Australia, I consider to be of paramount importance ; and this, connected with a more effectual system of i internal communication, is, I think, only required to develop the resources of the Province. 1 am prepared also to support any measure which may be brought forward for a liberal expenditure of the public revenue in procuring immigration both from Australia and the home country. Should you be good enough to elect me, I shall endeavour to give my utmost attention to your requirements ; but hereafter should my views not meet with your approval, I pledge myself to resign again "the trust you have confided to me into your hands. I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your most obedient Servant, JAMES FULTON. WANTED, "OASTURAGE for from Fifty to One HunJ- dred Sheep, near the Town of Dunedin. j Apply at the Royal Hotel. NOTICE.
