NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. THE SUPERINTENDENCE TO THE ELECTORS OF THE PROVINCE OF NELSON. f\ ENTLEMEN,—As I shall not be preVJT sent at the official declaration of the Poll, I take this opportunity of returning my sincere thanks to those independent Electors who voted for me, and thereby honored me by such a display of their confidence. In thanking uiy friends on the West Coist, I would remind them, that although greatly in the minority as compared with the successful candidate, the result has established the truthfulness of my supporters in saying that I had a larger support in the districts around Nelson than the other unsueessful candidates; and to my fellow-settlers of the Province generally, I would address myself in all sincerity by saying that till there is a determination on their parts to be guided by their own convictions only, arrived at after mature consideration, or till the system of voting by ballot becomes law, ifc is quite useless for any man of moderate means, whatever his worth may be, attempting to contest an Election where a prominent ingredient of success is a lavish expenditure of money. I am, Gentlemen, Your Obedient Servant, 1605 WILLIAM GIBBS. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITT OF NELSON.
