{ntendent in the chair, aleommittee was ap. pointed to carry out the Interprovincial Begatta, in connection with the usual anni versary regatta of the province on the 22nd January. £120 was subscribed in the room. Various leading clubs throughout the colony will be communicated with on the matter. Election Addresses. Messrs. Hunter and Peurce have published addresses to the electors announcing their intention of again standing for the cicy and promising to address the electors in public after the writs are issued. Mr. Hunter while admitting that though a Government supporter in all else but the abolition of provinces, and against which he voted, says he feels convinced it would be useless at tempting to re-establish the old form of Pro vincial Government. Mr Pearce's address is merely formal. Mr. Gisborne, ia his address, regrets that the qnestion of abolition was not submitted first to the consideration of the people at the general election. He thinks provincial legis lation should cease and the provinces no longer exist. He opposes insular-separation but thinks the colony suffers from unequal' improvident, and flurried finance, and favors the elective principle in the constitution of the Legislative Council. The Eaces. The privileges of the Hutfc course for next races, were sold to-day. The publican's booths fetched from £35 to £50 ; confec tioner's booths, £10 to £16 3s ; stables £2 10s to £4103; the right to sell cards'and betting books, £60. The stewards keep the gates themselves. The privileges with out the gates realised £270. This is a con siderable increase upop. last year's prices, I

NAPIER.

(Prom our own Correspondent.) This day. Probability of Sir Donald McLean's Defeat.

Mr. Joe Rhodes is announced as a candi date for Napier electoral district, makino six candidates for the two seats. Mr Rhodes is a retired runholder, at present absent in India on a visit. His coming forward is looked upon as diminishing Sir Donald McLean's chances. A large number of electors in Napier are resolved not to vote for any candidate who is a large holder in the land ring.

HOKITIKA.

(Jfrom our own Correspondent.) This day. The Elections. Mr Patrick Comisky, who is well known in your city, has arrived here to contest one of the seats for the General Assembly. Mr Comisky is well known, having been on busi ness here as a merchant. He is liberal in his politics, and is rather popular with a large section of his countrymen. If returned, he will take an intelligent view of every public question submitted to the consideration of Parliament.

DUNEDIN.

(in-omUur Own Correspondent.) This day. Scarlet Fever- An outbreak of scarlet fever in the city is reported by the Health Officer. The Star had a leader pointing out that it was to be expected, as the result of defective drainage and the overcrowded state of the city, and there are fears that if ife gets a start, medical men will have a hard time. Foot and Mouth Disease. Agriculturists are getting alarmed about the foot-and-mouth disease. A deputation from Taeri asked the Superintendent to at once take precautionary measures. In the course of an interview Mr Macandrew asked if it would not be better for a time to pro hibit all importation, and received an affirmative reply. It is likely the Cattle Board will act on the hint, and extend the prohibition to horses from Australia. In the meantime all cattle and stock is to be quarantined for three months. Mr Eeid's Banquet. The speeches at Mr Reid's banquet were very practical. Mr Macandrew said if Otago returned a united a band of 22, she could defy the world. Mr Reid answered the objection of Abolitionists seriatim, and declared for the separation and feder ation of the two Islands. Major Rich ardson declared out and out for Sepa ration, saying it was an easy accomplish ment, only men pledged to affect it were needed, and Mr J. Burns, former M.H.R. for the district, who has just returned to the colony, made a stroDg speech in favour of Provincialism. Referring; to immigration, he said the conduct of it by tne colonial authorities was positively disgraceful, and from his own knowledge of things at borne, he had no hesitation in saying that publicly.

Gentlemen, — I have much pleasure in acceding to your request that I should allow myself to be nominated as a Candidate for the honour of representing Auckland City East in the House of Representatives. I am, Gentlemen, Youis truly, J. M. CLARK. To Dr. Camibell, and the other gentlemen signing the requisition. O THE ELECTORS OF NEWTON Gentlemen,—Having reason to believe that I fairly represented your opinions in Parliament, and knowing that I did my best to do so, I offer myself as a Candidate for re-election. There is nothing I can say that will enable you to know more of me than you do now, as I am and have been personally known for many years to nearly all of you. As to what is to be done row. I say let us, as far as possible, manar". our own affairs. Surely we who know and are ii. crested, can do so betu-r than those who neitber know nor care, and whose interests are often opposed to curs. If you see fit to elect me, my conduct will be the Bame in the future as it has been in the past—an endeavour, as far as possible, to g-t unity of action among our Members; to rt-duce wasteful expenditure ; to put power into the bands of the people, not to deprive them of it; and that all great questions should be submitted to them.
