Speaking of one of the oandidates for CaVersham, the Writer of "Passing Notes" in the Otddo Ddily Tittle's says i — Mr D. F. Main, though the .last in the field, is blessed with the confidence of a practised gplitical iady-kilier; Se announced that is ihoito was Vent, vidi, viei — a device with which he heads his election adver tisements. If the other candidates don't make play, Mr D. F. Main, with his " Tarquin's ravishing strides " and Csesarean promptness, wiU. do something dreadful. If I am right, this is not the first time Mr Main has quoted Ceesar with effect. Is not this the gentleman who once electrified the House by de scribing how the great Dictator exclaimed in death Et'tu quoque? Surely it is written in Hansard, and Bellamy's re joices over it to this day. A malign star E resided over Mr Main's natal hour, or c would never have been predestinated to remind us just now that he pan quote Cresar. I aid diffident of my grfiolarship, but I will hazard an amendment of his last quotation. It Will be found (when the poU is declared) that the true read ing of Mr Main's motto is Veni, vidi, VICTUM SUM! Caversham is not to be carried by a coup de Main;

The Wellington journals (says the Wararapa Daily, an Opposition paper) class Mr Bunny as "doubtful." It is only fair to admit that Mr Bunny fought his election as a Ministerialist, and we think when the House meets, aud the sheep and the goats go into their re spective lobbies, Mr Bunny will be found amongst the latter.
