MOROA SMALL FARM ASSOCIATION THE COMMITTEE of the Upper Moroa Small Farm Association meet on the first Friday in every month at the Greytown School House at 4 p.m. They have adopted the following regulations, viz 1. That any person who has constituted himself a member of the Association by paying to the Treasurer 5s for incidental expenses, 5s for the town section, and 25 per cent on the price of the land he wishes to purchase can have at once the privilege of free selection within the boundaries of the block to the extent of one, two, three, or four fifty acre sections. 2. That any person who has paid his deposit to the Association can settle at once on his selection, and be entitled to the value of his improvements in the event of the land he occupies being bought by another party. Applications for shares can he made to the Secretary, Treasurer, or any member of the Committee. W. Lyon has accepted the appointment of Sub-Treasurer at Wellington, who will receive applications and deposits*as above. R. WAKELIN, Hon. Secretary.

TO THE ELECTORS OF EAST WAIRARAPA. Gentlemen, — I have to thank you for the honour you have done me in returning me without opposition as your representative to the Provincial Council. The less fettered by pledges to specific votes, a member enters the Council, the better I think it will be for his own free action and in the long run for his constituents. Still the notice of the election was so short, the means of communication in the district are so difficult that those of you to whom I am least known, may be glad to have some statement of my opinions. I agree with most or all of you in thinking that East Wairarapa has not received its due benefit from the large sums it has contributed to the Provincial Revenue. Roads are the circulating system of a district; without them fife is stagnant. Our roads are far from being in the state they ought to be. A Railway to the Wairarapa would at once raise us from a reptile to a warm-blooded and nobler condition; any feasible scheme for a Railroad shall receive my support. The passing of enactments which cannot be enforced, is in my opinion worse than a loss of time; the existence of laws habitually broken with impunity tends to bring all law into contempt. My desire is only to promote only practical measures. The education of our children, on which the well-being of the country in the next generation depends, is a subject which requires our most serious attention. I am, gentlemen, Your obliged and , faithful servant, J. C. ANDREW. Te Ori Ori, March 18, 1867.
