THE BUDGET. This was the Cartwright Budget day for 1873. In examining the Assessment Roll for the present year we find that the number of resident acres is 35,568 and 380 acres non- resident. The total value of Real Estate is $275,016 for Resident, and $1,790 for Non- Resident. The total value of Personal Pro- perty is $27,360 and of Income $400. The number of Inhabitants in the township is 2241, of Horses 1141, of Cattle 2768, of Sheep 3431, of Hogs 1846, of Dogs 174, had of Bitches 5, and the total value of Real and Personal Property is $303,675. Hence there are 16 acres of land for every man, woman and child in the township, I horse for every 2, a head of cattle for each, 3 sheep for everv 2; and $136 for each. There are 9 School Sections in the town- ship and the following are their assessed values and the amounts to be raised by each chair and introduced the evening's proceed- ings in a few well timed remarks. for the appointment of judges for show. JAMES PARR, 8kc'y. Besides the abundance of pleasant music furnished by the choir, there were some fine addresses delivered. The Rev. Mr. Dennis was the first speal- er. His subject was the results of well directed Sunday School effort, snowing the advantages conferred by the institution on parents, teachers, pupils and the com- munity, Th» Rev. Mr. Hart followed. He viewed the great Sunday School of its most prominent features and closed by urging the necessity tor converted teachers. Rev. Mr. Ferguson came next; his chief topic being the necessity for suppress- ing the early manifestations of vice and -in- stilling pious impressions on the youtiful mind. The School Report as read by Mr. J. C. Pilkey, the Superintendent of the School, was most encouraging as showing the con- '$1,822 is all that is asked for all other) purposes, townskip, county, gravel road, municipalitics' fund and all, Hence 60 cents on the $100 ratable property will meet all orher rates except the Schools.
