T. DANIEL. TO THE ELECTORS OF WALLACE. /""i ENTLEMEN, —I [beg to inform yon that I am again a candidate for your suffrages. Although defeated at last election, the result being so close showed that I had a large number of friends, and I have not the slightest doubt that the cause of my defeat was the disorganised state of parties, and lam sure the experience we gained on that oc casion will do us good service now. The period between now and the date fi*ed for the Election being so short, there will be hardly time to visit every portion of the large district, but I will endeavor to address the electors at every important centre, at dates which appear elsewhere.
