W. HALSE,

Government House,
Auckland, 2nd November, 1861.

GENTLEMEN,—I thank you most cordially for your Address of welcome, which Mr. J. C. Richmond has placed in my hands.

You tell me that you look to me with hope and confidence, under your calamities, that peace may be established on such terms as shall ensure the permanent good of both races.

I can only reply that I am well aware of the noble patience with which you have borne those calamities, and of the great exertions you have made to struggle against difficulties, and that I hope I may be strengthened to fulfil the hopes reposed in me, which I should, under any circumstances, from a sense of duty, strive to do; but to be an instrument in restoring to Taranaki prosperity and happiness would be a peculiarly grateful and most enviable task to me, from a remembrance of many happy days I have passed in it, and from a sense of strong personal regard to many of its inhabitants.
