They must have been accustomed to a country life; 2. or, They must bo members of football, cricket, lawn tennis, or other club for outdoor sport or amusement; 3. or. They must be, or have been, membersof the volunteer force of the colony; i. or, They must have been born in the colony.

Binney & Son's Auction Mart, who will enrol them; and if any traitor attempts to come among my young colonial supporters, I beg to say that from the bottom of my heart I pity him.

P.S.—The young colonial supporters will have nothing to do with the electoral work in the Eden district, which will be entirely managed by my working committee of Eden electors, but I have work to do for the colony which I cannoj do unless the young colonial hands will aid and assist me.

We bog to assure you that the persons who have interrupted and annoyed you are not Electors of Eden ; we therefore trust that you will see your way clear at an early date to address a meeting of bonajide electors. We are, sir, Yours most respectfully, Chas. A. Macaneny John Campbell Thomas Wyatt Whavton B. D. R. Percival Walter Smith Wilton Lawson Henry T. Hcrbets Peter Smith Horace Corbett A. J. Corbett Ignatius Graham Walter Clayton Peter Fleming H. N. Browne Jas. H. Peters C. A. Taylor William Simpkins R. G. Armstrong Arthur Graham Thos. Harkness David Shortt mO THE GENTLEMEN SIGNING THE J_ REQUISITION. G-KNTLEMBN,—It has afforded me extreme gratilication to receive thi3 morning your spon taneous requisition expressing your approval of myself as a Tit and proper person to represent your interests in Parliament. I may say that I quite agree with you that the persons who persistently interrupted mo alike at St- Sepulchre's Schoolroom on the 4th inst., and more unfairly after the acceptance by them of the conditions I advertised at the Opera House on Monday night are not, excepting perhaps in a microscopic proportion, electors of Eden. I may add that not only do I know who they are not, b\it I know well enough who they aro. It has suited my purpose hitherto to face alone the utmost force which they were capable of bring ing against me which was cortajuily considerable and cleverly organised. It now suits my purpose to put an end to it, and I have taken my own measures to do so, which I think aro likely to prove tolerably effectual. If any man hereafter, at any of my largo publ'o gatherings in Auckland, persistently interruptsme with the evident purpose of endeavouring to prevent my thoughts and words from reaching the audience, I beg to inform him that if the consequences of his conduct should prove of a surprising and unpleasant character hewill have himself alone to blame. Any individual harbouring the in tention after this warning of disturbing any public meeting at which I speak must be pre pared to take the consequences imposed by the Police Offences Act, 1881. I think even the enemy must admit that I have given them evoryfair chance of displaying their hostility. I now feel that it is necessary in the interests, o f public order to make a move against them and if they aro wise men they will hereafter keep out ■ of-my road. With regard to your request that I should at an early date address a meeting of bonajide electors, I may explain that in standing for Parliament I have two distinct and separate purposes to serve which I must keep in view—the one is to win the Eden seat, the other is to aid in influencing public opinion throughout tho colony in con nection with the election on subjects which I deem of vital importance to the well-being, and even, perhaps, to the very life of the colony- This last is, in my mind, the more important matter of the two, and in order to the effectual carrying of it out on my part, it is absolutely necessary that I should, early in the c ection, address large meetings of the electors of th e colony in Auckland. I trust the electors of Eden will believe that I adopt the plan of campaign which will be ad vertised in Thursday or Friday's Star under a due sense of the propriety and necessity of treating the electors of Eden, whom I hope to succeed in winning as my future constituency, with proper respect' and courtesy. If I fail in satisfying any elector that it is my sincere desire to do this, I venture to ask him to suspend judgment in the meantime, and not hopelessly and finally condemn me. I hope this evening, when I meet for the first time my working com mittee, to obtain their approval of the course which I will to-Dight lay before thorn. And again, I beg to say that I want no man to attend my meeting to-night unloss he is prepared to yield mo his loyal and hearty support. Thank ing you, gentlemen, most sincerely for your ex tremely kind and wholly unsolicited expression of approval and confidence. I.remain, Your most obedient servant, J, AITKEN OONNELL.

We, the undersigned, electors of the district, arc desirous of testifying our admiration and appreciation of the wise policy advocated by you at your meetings, and of the straight forward manner in which you have ptated unpalateable hometruths to a very turbulent audience. We cordially sympathise with your noble efforts to secure the introduction of the Bible to our Godless secular schools, aid we earnestly wish that' you will not be daunted by factious opposition. Though residing at too great a distance from the city to attend your meetings, yet as Electors of Eden, we hare perused with very great interest your admirable political speeches as reported in the Stab, and we have been greatly impressed by the courage you have shown to state your views undismayed by ignorant inter ruptions. Assuring you that you may rely on us for support, we subscribe ourselves i-r, John Brierley, J.P. I saac Jones Andrew Carr S am Dixon I sidore Sera O liver Holmes Thomas Scarrotte F red. W.

[The envelope itself has been mislaid, but the above is as near as memory can supply.—J.A.C.] The following letter appealed in the corres pondence column of the New Zealand Herald on Friday morning, the 15th July instant :— MR. AITKEN CONNELL'S CANDIDA TURE. TO THE EDITOR.** Sir,—lt has been represented that the political views and principles enunciated by Mr Connell are not those of the majority of the electors of Kden. This, sir, is untrue. The mere fact that Mr Connell has straightforwardly pressed home common sense views upon Ihe present political situation, in the face of opposition of the most determined character, and under the most dis couraging circumstances, would alone go very far to win for him the sympathy and support of fair-minded electors, who are too profoundly impressed with the gravity of our position as a colony to stood to horse-p.ay or burlesque. I, sir, can assert that there is a strong-growing feeling in Mr Council's favour, for in my portion of the district, a requisition expressive of sym pathy and esteem lias just been drawn up and presented to him.—l am, etc., John Biuerly. [The Herald was in no way to blame, as th® manuscript was duly signed "John Brierly,' and it was inserted in the paper in perfect good faith."] J.A.C. MR CONNELL'S REPLY. TO JOHN BRIERLY, Esq., J. P., The Grange Villa (As representing the numerous electors of Eden signing the requisition, and his other followers.) My Dear Mr Briekly— 'io attempt to convey to your mind or to the mind of that numerous and most intelligent body of Eden electors who, I doubt not, for good and sutlicient reasons, rank as your followers, and whose wishes that you should present the requisition to me personally were only defeated by the untoward but, I doubt not also, uncon trollable circumstances which imperatively demanded your personal presence at Heleos ville—l say to attempt to convey to your mind, or to their minds, the feeling of satisfac tion with which 1 perused your flattering requisition, is, I feel, alsogoiher futile, and indeed so entirely beyond my power, tnat in despair I abandon the attempt, and must, therefore, leave it lo a man of leaning, of feel ing, and of culture, like yourself to imagiae. I may say, my dear Mr Brierlv, that I abso lutely pine for that meeting which an unhappy fate—in some way or another connected witJi Helensville—has denied me to-day. To meet men of your evident refinement and delicacy I need scarcely say cannot but afford me a pleasure which I instinctively l'ecl must neces sarily exceed all the meaner joys of existence 1 have hitherto known. The touching manner in which you verify the bona fides of your own and the other signatures to the requisition by the addition of the mysterious symbols which we are ac customed lo associate with the ideas of high standing and personal integrity on the part of the person entitled to aftix them to his signature, the extreme thoughtfulness with which you wnticipate and seek in an cllectual and wholly unimpeachable manner to allay even the shadow of suspicion in the mind of a person of such a simple and genial a nature as my own, by your accompanying letter, has, I feel, placed me under an obligation which I can never ade quatelrTUscharge. It must however, at all hazards, be publicly acknowledged. So flattering is the estimate, my dear Mr. Brierly, that 1 have framed of your interesting character, that I feel that I cannot properly dis charge my duty to you without suggesting, and even urging seriously upon you the duty you owe to yourself and to the colony, of permitting yourself to be nominated at thn approaching election for a seat in the House of Representa tives. I can assure you, my dear sir. that in your appreciation of the necessity for the verilication ot important documents, in the use of certain terms employed to express the ardent state of admiration to which I have reduced yourself and your followers by my truly noble behaviour on recent public occasions, more particu larly by the use of one of the terms contained in your accompanying letter, and from other internal evidence which the requisi tion and tho other accompanying document and even the envelope bears, I liave formed the conclusion that you do yourself serious injustice to allow professional talent of so marked a character to hide itse f under the thin and comparatively obscure mantle of a Justice of the Peace. I can assure you, my dear Mr Brierly, that v/ith a little judicious training you would be an ornament to the legal profession, and if you stand tor a seat in the House you might perhaps some day or other aspire to become a Minister of the Crown. 1 have known, I will not say stranger things, but I will say quite as strange things happen in New Zealand before, as your actually becoming a Minister of tho Crown. bhould you, as I have not a doubt you will, adopt my advice, permit mo to recommend for your serious consideration tho advisability of contesting either the Newton or Ponsonby seats, It is, 1 feel sure, now that I have your personal assurance of attachment to myself, perfectly plain to you and your followers that the Eden Electors are determined to have no other representative but myself. Eden then ia of course out pf the question. But so deeply am I interested, about you, that I havo to-day made



Election Notices. some considerable enquiries on the subject, and I find that you are personally well and intimately known to the great mass of the Newton Electors. In these Election matters please accept the advice of one who knows just the least bit in tho world of what he is talking about, and announce yourself without further ado for Newton. Delays, my dear friend, particularly in these times, are dangerous. Should you, however, bo mad enough to dis regard friendly advice and really think or standing for Eden (where Eden is concerned, as a " tactician," I must consider even so impro bable a -contingency as that), permit me to advi-e you to renew your former intimacy with our mutual frend, Sir George Grey. I fancy i can detect in recent deliverances of that high political authority a slight (possibly I am fanci ful), just a very slight, indication of a disposi tion to help you. Your merits are of course quite unknown to the general public, but your old friend, equally with myself, recognises, I know, your merit. You may bo surprised at this, but, my dear Brierly, you may rely upon it lam correct. Do not let any little temporary (for I can assure you it is but temporary) estrangement with tne great man I refer to lead you 10 doubt this. Do not hesitate, therefore, if you really desire Eden, to run for it, or permit the friendly leei ing so manifest on tho face of your requisition to deter you from declaring for Eden. I can assure you my, dear Brierly, that the esteeml entertain for you, since the receipt of your ad mirable requisition is so deep that it will not be in the least disturbed by any little passage at arms we may have in open arena. You may believe this, my dear Brierly, when I venture to tender to you advice even unasked for by you, You must do something to waken up the electors. Now suppose you came out strong as a " patriot." Contideutiiilly I may say, that I detest patriots. My suspicion of these interesting individuals has always been, it is now, deep and strong; but this unhappy sceptical habit is due to my early familiarity with the writings of that great, but much mistaken and most unfortunate man to whom I referred at the Opera House on Monday last—David Hume. Fortunately for you, my dear Brierly, the bulk of the electors are not so deeply imbued with the suspicion of patriots as I am, and for election purposes a patriot" is, as Polonius would say, " good. Now, if you are yourself a patriot, enlist the aid and lifting power (by the by, no one better knows the efficacy of this. I am sure, than yourself) of a "great statesman, and if you only hold out one flncror you may also secure the valuable assistance of the Premier of the Colony. Surely among you. between you. or all together, you will soon enough make short work of an obscure indi vidual like myself, whons content to aspire (but he does aspire to that) to be recognised as an old colonial hand." By the by, my dear Brierly, talking of scep ticism (I cannot tor the life of me understand why I should communicate all this to you, unless it is that your masterpiece, the requisition, has won my heart). • I say, talking of scepticism, I am almost ashamed to confess that my suspicions of patriots extend, though in a somewhat modified degree, to "great statement My experience of these individuals has been a singularly unhappy one. I am afraid that short as my career as a politician has been, I should have been m politic?;, as in times past I have been in philoso phy reduced to utter scepticism and despair, had not the good old "common sense idea helped me once more on my feet. In conclusion, my dear Brierly, permit me to, request you to convey my sincere thanks and kindest regards to that interesting, and I doubt not talented person you so informally address (on the outside of the envelope) as Mary. The promptitude and effect with which that admirable woman carried out your instruction to forward the important requisition by " Bus,' has raised in my breast the keenest anxiety to make her acquaintance. I should certainly have ;-sent her a special message of thanks by the lad who delivered the requisition at my office to-day,but he disappeared after delivery of his missive with a rapidity which perplexedmy simpleandconfidingnature. Can you explain this ; I confess it puzzles me altogether. Hoping, my dear Brierly, that you will soon return from Helensville (alas, unhappy Helens villc, when deprived of the light of your presence) and anord me the pleasure of your personal acquaintance. I am, yours gratefully, J. AITKEN CONNELL. P. 'S.—Please convey my grateful thanks to the numerous electors signing the requisition. I find they are none of them on the roll, but I feel certain they would vote f orjme if they could. By some strange mistake your own name, too, iiaslbeeniommitted^from the.offi.cialroll of J. P. s. The Minister of Justice is in Auckland at present. See him at once, and get the fellow dismissed from the service who is responsible for this truly ridiculous blunder.—J. A. C. PP.S.—Let me calm your fears; my seat upon that mysterious substance you refer to acrosti cally, but which I have never hitherto been able to define to my (defective?) imagination, is a:l right. In case of anyfurther anxiety of your self or of any other of my anxious friends about the impaired condition of my nervous system, I refer you to our well-known citizen, Dr. Haines, who, !l believe, is in a position (although I mus confess I have not consulted him specifically upon the point, but upon another point) to re assure you. If Dr. llaines, from the amount of extra work I thus throw upon him, is disposed to consider the. matter in a stiictly professional light, well he must send in his bill, which I must make up my mind at all hazards to fact:- This branch of work, has hitherto been one of the heaviest I had to face, and lam beginning to get just a little tired of it. Old Colonials like work, and I may say a good deal of work, but there is a limit even to their powers, and unless 1 can get Dr Haines to aid me 1 begin to feel that I may sink under the pressure of this branch of. election work. J.A.C. [Mr Council, at 9.53 a.n\, on Friday, loth inst., immediately on being informed by me that Mr Tolo'had retired from the contest for Eden, pro duced the foregoing reply to the requisition, covering ten pages of manuscript.J 10.50 a.m.—Mr Council now instructs me to hand the manuscript to the Printer, without alteration, with instructions to see that the Star reader, after carefully comparing the same, sends to .Mr Council's office tnree copies marked "first and corrected proof of Mr Council's reply to the Requisition," each of which is to be signed with the reader's name for verification. These proofs so signed will att'ord, Mr Council thinks, satisfactory evidence of Mr. Connclls opinions beforekuowing any thing of Mr. Tole's announcement of his retire ment from his candidature for Eden, I now proceed to the Stab Om'ce, and will give these instructions. Any alterations or additions to the manu script as written last night will be at once apparent bjr comparing the certified lirst proof with the answer to the requisition as to be pub lished in to-night's Stab. ; T. H. GILEo, Election Secretary to Mr Connell. July loth, 11.10 a.m. In order that humourists may thoroughly ap preciate, the above, Mr. Connell may explain that ho has discovered that the gentleman to wlyxn he attributed the skit, and whom he ad dresses in the person of Mr. John Brierly in his reply to the bogus requisition, is really not the uuthor. The thing actually aroso in this way -.-Two gentlemen "had a dispute as to whether the first requisition was genuine or not. and their con versation resulted in a bet that the Candidate for Eden could bo deceived by a cleverly manu factured bogus requisition. The result has been that the Candidate's backer has won his money I need scarcely say that his other backers are equally with his unknown friend likely to turn out to be on the winning side.—J. A. C.
