TO THE ELECTORS OF SAINT PETER'S IVASD.

GENTLEMEN,—The receipt by me of a requi
Eitiou from a very numerous and highly respectable
portion of your body, inviting ste to al ow myself to be nominated as
a candidata to represent 3ou in the Town Council, leaves me no
other course (compatible with a sense rif clu•y) than to come I orward as
a c-ndidate for your soffeages, at the approaching Municipal Election.
C:innected as I have been with your ward, as a ratepayer in it, for
a period of nearly t went/ years, such a mark of your confidence is
hiwitevae-ai iepresentats.;e, iii the council, I beg to assn e yOu
that my best exertions shall be con inually exercised to 'onward your
nterests, and that, of the community generally, Although we have a
compare; ive abssnce of great party cries, and subjects ot.cctritention.
I co-ceive there are an anundarice of obje:ts to which the attention
and labotns of 3 our representatives should be directed.
The present state of the tupply of water, cannot longer be borne
with ; it calls f.r the earnest attention, and immediate action of your
Town Council ; the supply of so importac.t a necessa,y of life and
health, in the pure state, overides all other consiCerations; and from
the interests involved, demands an early settlement.
Tnat your Corporitte funds should be managed with the greatest eco-
nomy, is su evident a proposition, that I will only allude-to it by paying,
that the att-ntion of your council should be kept constantly alive to the
necessity of keeping the expenditure of the great revenue entrusted
to their management, and derived from the hard labour of all the
various classes of the community at the lowest point compatible with
the wants and interests of that community. Connected wit this sub-
ject, s another o great importance. It is highly essentirl, that a
varetul revision of the Corporalon Property should be made, so that
it may be c early ascertained what it consists.
I here are may other sutjects which caunq be more than touched
upon, within ths limits of n a i dress, such as the spreading of Edu-
cation—the fostering of useful institistions, and etwating influences
which I hold to be tce duty of oar local legtelature. Toes, subjects,
if it be your p:easure to return me as your. representative, shall have
the nr--st earnest and industrious appiicat:on of my abilities applied to
them.--: remain, Gentlemen, yours obedient servant, •
C. T. DOWRING.

TO THE EL FCTOIVit OF ARERCROMBY WARD.
GENTLEMEN,—WhIIefuIIy sensible of the
honour conferred upon those whom you el, et to
be
your representatives in the Council, I am int less keenly alive to thie
onerous duties and responsibilities which the cons: ientions exercise
of the trust involves. If, therefore, I have acceded to the request of
a large and important body of the Electors of the Ward to solicit your
suffrages at this hlection, it has not been from personal considerations,
bat ft*, m motives of mon;cipal p y, that you may have the lull and
fair opportunity of registering your vutis, so as to enforce your own
Jews.
My opinio 78 are well known to many ci! you. Pesident in thew rd
for '25 years, I have always pone he ,rt,ly and actively with you in
toe sirugglo Ll' those great privileges, Parliamentary and Municipal,
which we now ,njoy. In council p )11 cs, I deprecate mere party
spirit, but like fair play. I bel;eve ray fellow-townsmen fully entitled
to every advantage that can br elitairad from air, icions employment
of the corporate fui.d—such as improvements in our streets and
approaches, the extension of parks tor recreation and exercise, the
increa e otfree libraries for rim-al and int,le tial training, and, I
may add, especially at this conjune uro,ithe free and full use and
enjoym nt, for domesti:•parpos• 8, of those eacious springs which
Once were, and I trust :gain will be, our boast and our de'ight. There
are other and impertant ones ter the wirers of the Pike, so that,
with both sources at command, the town may have an Unparalleled
supply.

It would be not less derogatory to you than to me to make a peronal
anvass. Sho9ld you, gent' men, think fit to confer on me the honour
of being your representative, I shall consider it n y duty to advocate
every economy which is conskteut with efficiency, to give an earnest
attet,tion to all questions of public Interest that may come before the
Co.incd, and, above all, 'o exercise the privilege of voting thereupon
with a )espectful consideration for the declared wishes and wants of
this great community.—l am, gentlemen, your obedien, servant,
JOci.PH A hiDgRSON.

RE-ELECTION OF HARMOOD BANNER, ESQ.

THE COMMITTEE for conducting the Re-
election of Mr. BANNER SIT DAILY at their Rooms,
in Church-alley, the corner of School-lane, where all personal commu-
nications or letters from Mr. Banner's Supporters will be received.
By order of the Committee,
THOMAS BRANCH, Chairman.
ROBERT FRODSHAM, Vice-Chairman.
EDWARD WEBSTER, Hon. Secretary.

Mr. CHARLES WILLMER has thought proper to state, in the
NoxaoEstN DAILY TIMII9, that the Church in Myrtle-stre.t.
attached to th, Orphan Asylums, was erected by SUBSCRIPTION,
whilst the credit of bui'ding it is taken to myself. However
unwilling I may be to push myself before the public in matters of
this kind, i mint, in my own defence, and to counte -act the
electioneering use to wh'ch such an allegation is turned against me
in this contest, declare the statement to be utterly untrue. The
Church was bui't SJlely at my own expense.
