WINTER, N.G., A. A. SELIG, P.P.C.S., Acting P.S. TO HENRY THOMSON, ESQ., Mayor of Christchurch. DEAR SIR, —Wo the undersigned Burgesses of the City of Christchurch, fully appreciating the thoroughly independent and business-like manner in* which you have discharged the duties of the Mayoralty during the current year, hereby request that you will permit yourself to be nominated for the office for the ensuing term, and pledge ourselves heartily to support your candidature.— Yours, &c, (Signed) ANDREW DUNCAN, P. CUNNINGHAM, A. W. BICKERTON, J. D. MACPHERSON, And 157 others. To Messrs A. Duncan, P. Ounninglmn, A. W. Bickerton, J. D. Macphersbn,- and 157 other . gentlemen signing the requisition. Gentlemen, — I thank you most heartily for the very "influontially signed requisition this day placed in my hands, asking me to allow myself to bo nominated for tho office of Mayor, and for the very complimentary terms you have been pleasod to use in referring to the manner in which I have discharged the duties of the Mayoralty during the current yoar. > It gives me great pleasure to accede to your request, and I now place myself in the hands of my fellow-citizens, as a candidate for reelection. . During my term of office I found the duties of the Mayoralty, combined with those of the Chairman of the Hospital and Charitable Aid Board, so onerous as to require, for their proper discharge, very much more time than any one actively engaged in business conld possibly spare ; but lam now in a position which will enable me to devote the whole of my time, if necessary, to the requirements of tho oflice, and on that account feel more confident in again soliciting tho votes of the electors. It is quite true that I cannot point to either lamp or fountain as a memorial of my zeal on behalf of the City, interests j yet! may fairly claim the greatest share of tho credit in securing the 800 acres rpservo at tho Sandhills, the revenue from which in a few years will greatly lighten the burden of tho ratepayers. Tho improvements in Cathedral Square as originally suggested by me have been carried out, and although opposed at first, are now univorsally approved. I am quite alivo to tho absolute necessity for securing an ample and permanent supply of water for the city,, and am prepared to devote both time and energy to the attainment of that object. The erection of now municipal ofllcos and Town Hall is also a necessity, and will hn-ve my best support. ; With the past year's experience o£ tho duties of tho oflice, .and encouraged By the flattering terms in. which you have re&jrjed to my discharge of them, I hope, should you do me the honour ef re-electing me, to-be a bio still* more efficiently to fill the posi.Mon.of your chief Magistrate, and having no private interests to serve, will continue ia the future, as I always have done in the past, to devote my best energies to tho advancement of our prosperous and rising city, and the conservation of the interests of tho ratepayers. I have tho honour to bo, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, 11. THOMSON. BOROUGH OF SYDENDAM. ~ IMPOUNDING oipIiTRAY CATTLE. 'T>UBLIC NOTICE is hereby given that !
