""tcT'tIIE KLKCTORS OF NKW PLYMOUTH. <TH RNTLEMRN, — Klectioneeiiug Ad \~J$ drosses are now the order ot the day. We haw them from nil grades and professions — from gentli men, lawyers, doctors, meichants, and vctgers — and tliis week a WcOeyan Missionary is added to the number. Although the lev. gentleman has dU looted lus remaiks to yon, it is at me they 1 an: aimed, Why he should have written in su h ,m illiberal My'e is more than I can j understand. Perhaps you will be better i «he to judge thnn myself. We. are both of us 'well known," and I liave it in your hands to decide which of us it is that wishes to coeice public opinion. .Since his letter appeared, I have been cieilibly informed that it is probable he : wrote under the impression that Iliad either j written or dictated his snxton's replies to hia ' two letters, and that I waited on Mr.Col'ini to procuie them a place in the Herald. I This cha ge is untrue, and I take this oppoitunity of stating that I have had nothing to do with them, cither in the writing, dic1 tating, or coirecting, nor do I knoiv who did write them. | I acknowledge I oi;co aske I him to become a vice pirsulcnt of the Mechanics' Institute, when he raised an objection that he did not like to associate with some persons coniiec ed with it, mentioning the name-* of two gtntlenien, as they might hu broaching I their piinciplos. My reply was "Then ' come amongst us, aud try to stem them,^ reminding him thai one of Uliii Wilii 0071%' >; Institute itnetly forbadef-ill'^'is ous d' s ' cushion. " "" "■ ' i ! As to his declaring the secret that 1 have been "one of Mr.firown's chief though bidden opponents," he is too late. I h.vl pieviousl) lnfoimcd Mi, 1?. that if I thought lie would, in the capacity of Supciintendent, havr anything to do with religious matters, I would do what I could to oppose his return. Now, Gentlemen, as I have no desire to double you with along letter, I shall conclude by submitting ii to your sober judgement whether a Minister of the Gospel, who has thought fit to carry electioneering nuitt'TS into the pulpit -Avho has written notes .soliciting vot"s — who hi» lialangucd a public house company assembled for elt'clioiieaing purposes at the Ship Hotel — nnd lus besides, solicited by letter, Im chapel sweeper to come forward as a Candidate for the Provinfil.il Uouncil of this Settlement — has any right to complain that .i Ck'rk has desired to have a finger in the pic. I trust with 11. 11. T. that any man who sol. cits your suppoit who has not a des r« t» preserve, originate, and support that which is right and beneficial to the community, at the s mo time reforming that which is useless and wronj, you will at onto i eject him. I am Gentlemen, Your obedient Ser»nnt, V. U. GLEpim/T, TO CARPENTERS &c are Desired^for the rxerntion of the CARPENTER'S and JOINEtt'3 Woik &c. of a Home about to be creitPtl in Devon Street, New Plymouth. Plans <md Specifientions may be seen on app'icatfon to Mr. Lakeman, on and after THiitSDAY next, who will give any further inlormation. New riymouth. July 2(i, I^ff 1 ?.
