The pressure in getting good men to go to WeKou is very much felt here. There are many whose candidature would have been ?3y supported, and who have been forced Sm^various causes to decline revests made to them Mr J- T, Boylan would lave beeu safe P?ovface Ss strongly urged also to come for ward but like the rest;, could not see bw way to W to Wellington for the lengthened period thatwnlnswb!Taciuired. Are not these *ig nificaS facts! and do they not point to one of thefet consequences of the $ an^ F o^ as the sure means of contowg the choiceo.re presentatives to wealthy men at mere political loafers. Every one with Colonitf experience knows how unfit the former are as a e£«ss to be entrusted with power. As to the latter, there cannot be any two opinions that they are a , nuisance, and 'do the work of the selfishly rich ■ more' ooverUy, and therefore more securely, than they could do it themselves. I was very much struck the other day at a distribution of prizes by the Bishop to suc tfwrful candidates from tho Sunday school of S£ Church of England, The contest for first prize lay between three lads. The one was the Ln of the Archdeacon, the other of the black- Sh of the district, and the third was a lad ISm tne Orphan Home. And yet, with society so constituted, we are asked to look to England for our political precedents, and to sebrograde to a condition In which such a habitual association-especially at a Sunday Xol-wxmH be regarded aa unmtural and impossible. The lad from the Orphan Home S the prize, winning it fairly by brains and fcard work.
