Mr 8t John thinks that the committee have taken the best course in submitting the matter to arbitration, The clause was then adopted. The next clause had reforence to the mmount of $185 the cost of arbitration be. tween S Section No 4, E Whitby and the . Municipality. E. Whitby had applied to the council to foot the bill, but the council could not soe the point and recommended that E, 'Whitby township pay their own accounts. The committe: arose ani reported the re-- port without amendment. On motion for the adoption of the report Mr Ewers, sec'd by Mr 8t John (the seconder stated he would not vote for Mr Ewers' amendm moved, in amendment, that the - referred to the committee of . the whole with instructions to amend the same by striking out the rrcommendation for arbitration on the matter of school sec- tion 7. : Mr Ewers again read the law and urged _that the Reach Council bad not refused to act but had only delayed action till they .oould-make proper arrangements. Mr Holman said that Mr Ewers had no intention to act in the matter and it is better to aliow the case to go to arbitration. The yeas and nays were demanded on Mr yBwers' amendment. Yea, Mr Ewers ; nays all the rest of the Council. . Mr Guy would ask the Warden to read over the 6th clause ; this was the re ommend- ation for E Whitby to pav the $165 for the arbitrati<n on School section No 4. Mr Guy said that the county and not the township ought to pay this amount, they had appointed the arbitrators and had a per- fect right to pay them ; if his township pay .one half it will do more than it has any right "to do, butthey will never pay it all unless compelled by law, The report wasthen adopted. And this closed the proceedings of a somewhat mgged session in which a super-abundance of logic was by no means conspicuous. Port Perry. Municipal Council - The above Council met in the office of the Clerk of the corporation on Friday evening, sth inst. Reeve in the chair, members all present. The minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved. A petition was handed in by RJ Smith and some fifty or sixty others praying the Council to lend their influence in stemming .the tide of intemperance by refusing to grant shop licenses and reducing the number of Hotels to four. Mt Kellett says if the prayer™of this veti- tion were granted he would like to kuow what the parties who have invested their capital in the business are to do with their property ? Mr Shaw replied that {he temperance men . would buy itup. MrKellott said if it is considered that there are too many hotels the best plan is to crush some of them out by raising the license so high that they all cannot afford to pay for & license. "Mr Shaw said his plan would be if first class houses be charged $10 to charge second class houses $60 ; he did not consider it fair that a man investing seven orcight thousand. dollars in a first class hotel, end who thus pays a large amount of tax, should have to pay as much or even more license than one who starts a shabean with an investment of $10. Mr Currie said the maticr was not now before the Council it would be the proper timo to discuss it when the license by-law cqmes up. Me Jones suggests that the petition might be laid on the table till the discussion on cAherdicense by-law takes place. On motion of Mr Shaw the petition was *Jaid-on thotable tid next mecting of Coun- cil. The clerk read a commusication from Mr. Hurd, Mr Spence's counsel, accepting of the proposal of the council to submit the mat- in dispute between the corporation and Mr Spence to arbitration and stating that Mr Spenco has chosen Mr. to. On Langly of Toron- of Mr Jones the solicitor of the was instracted to prepafe the necessary bonds of arbitration and have them ~weady for execution by the arbitrators so that theater may be settled with as little delay as-possibile. it 2 Pogile.came hefore the Council com- ain of the-severity of the by-law passed at the late meeting of Council requiring i ty of $30:that all © transient er bs out a licenanior which §30 is .

Ou motion of Mr Currie, the committee arose and reported the by-law as amended. The report was received and adopted, the by-law read a third time and passed, signed and sealed. - The License by-law was then taken up and considered and laid over till next meet- ingof council. Neddy's account for printing was now taken up charging $15 'for publishing the audit $39, butit ought to have been $34, the amount of contract for part of the printing and $10 for extra work. Mr Jones asked what the 15 was for? Neddy replied that it was for publishing the auditor's report and that it had been let by tender, Neddy knew that he was tell- ing ah unblushing falsehood for he is well aware that there was no tender ever asked for that work ; this was no matter in which he could be mistaken for he knew as well as he knew that he was then telling an untruth that no tender was ever asked for publishing the audit. The audit was published before any tender was asked for. Here is a copy of the precious document: "port Perry, 8th April, 1874. « Gentlemen, --Tenders will be received by the undersigned until noon Friday, the 10th inst., for the printing of the corporation for the rei nder of this year including mu- nicipal Election Notices for the year 1875 or any othér printing that my be necessary for the use of the same. «] wm, Gentlemen, "Your obd't Serv't, "DUNCAN McKERCHER. "To Messrs Baird & Parsons, « Port Perry. « Tendors received in Bulk sum for the whole, "D McK." This is a copy ot the tender on whichNeddy contracted and when he brings in his bill he charges $10 extra in the face and eyes of the above contract,and when some members of council demurred at paying any extras when the contract was for -all the printing re. quired by the council Neddy's only rep'y was that had the late council been in power they would have paid him at once, that there had been more work than he anticipated. Mr Currie said he had no sympathy with such tendering, he did not consider that parties who contracted and found that they were rot making as much as they expected should seck to slip in extras when really there were no extras, where is the advantage of tendering if partics won't adhere to their tender. Mr Jones asked it there had not 'been. a printing account paid last year in addition to this account? Neddy replied "that there had been an account paid but the work had all been done in 1873 the same as this work was done last year." Hero again Neddy knew that hie was stat- ing what was absolutely untruein every par- ticular, i Heknew that he had already collected $21.70 for printing done in the same year and to find one deliberatly asserting as true what Lie knows to be false in every particul- ar is disgraceful in the extreme, moncy ob- tained by such meaness is dearly won. Neddy's printing account for the past year was $21.70, 15, $39, $10 for extras, -in all $85.70. On motion of Mr Shaw thesum of §60 less $39 nlready paid, be paid to Mr Mundy-- in full of aceount--this was allowing &6 for extras in place of $10 as asked. On motion the council adjourned till Fri- day 19th inst. © ---- The Municipal Council -of Brock. The above Council met at the town hall, Sunderland, on Monday, 8th inst. Reeve in the chair and members all present. The minutes of the previous meeting read and approved. v A petition from James Campbell and forty others was presented praying the Council to appoint a liquor detective for the village ot Cannington and ending the appoint ment of Robert Jones as a fit and proper person for the office. An animated discussion took place as to the utility of such an appointment ; the mat. ter was thoroughly discussed but no definite action was then taken. On motion of Mr Brethour the sum of $15 was ordered to be paid to RE Porritt being an appropriation made last year, The Council adjcurned for dinnet, After dinner, Mr Shier moved that the matter of the lease of the gravel pit be laid on the table till next meeting of council and that the clerk be and he is hereby instructed to notify Mr Chas Parrish to attend guid meeting of council with a view to giving the necessary information regarding said lcase. Mr Shior moved for leave to introduce a by-law for grapting certain Tavern and Shop Licenses and that the same be now read a first time, Leave granted, Mr Shicr said befere the by.law was read he wished to offer a word of explanation. In the first place iv was not his intention that the by-law should, in the mean time, go any further than the first reading. He had in- tended to propose a conside sable rise in the License money and to have a greater differ- | PSY ence between the amounts charged for a first class license and a second-class. When he had formed that iden, however, it was with the understanding thatthe least quantity to be sols byshops-was to be one gallon in conceived, would diminish the sales of shops 3. wi rer | and increase the sales of hotels ; but o Moors that» hen the addition to the damage he shall pay a fine of | not less than $1 or more. than $20 with | never had been a union formed, no one in The | 2&7 | ed of East Toronto will seeks constituency Lin -Algoma aud:if he fail in that too he will reference to any union had been found exoept in the year 1860 when a motion was made to detach a part from Union School Section No 3 and the same to another section. The parties favorable to the union main- tained that the above motion was prima facie evidence that the union had been regularly formed and the ab y other to the formation or anything else concerning the union must be attributed to the negli- gence of the council and clerk at the time the union was formed, The opponents of the gnion on the other band declared that it made no matter what the council understood there really the section had ever known it as a union szction and it never had been treated us such. Mr Brethour said that the motion passed | by the council of 1860 to alter the houncar- ies of union School section No 3 could be re garded in no other light than that such a union did exist then and never having been dissolved it exists still and the absence ofany other record on the matter can only be the result of carelessness of the party who was then clerk of the municipality. Mr G Shier said he was taught in that school and had been a trustee of it but he never heard of its being a union Section. Mr St John said he had been brought up in the section and had attended the school and never knew it to be a union section, The Reeve said it made little matter what the section was understood to be, tte ques- tion is what is it ? its being supposed to be a union section would not make it such, un- less the necessary legal stops have been taken in the formation of the union there is no union about it, and in the absence of any proof that these steps have been taken to- gether with the testimony of those living in the section the presumption is that the union never was formed. But even were it so that a union did exist and a majority of the Brock rate-payers of that section wished to have the union dissolved this council wonld protect its own people and very soon accomplish a dissolution of the union. Mr Brethour says if it is found on a further search that the necessary stey,s have not been taken in the formation. of the union, he would move that the Reeve proceed now and take themnecessary steps iu the formation of the union as indicated in the resolution ex- tracted from the minutes of 1860. - The Reeve stated that the council could take no action in the'matter till the parties concerned have been duly notified of the contemplated action, until they had agreed to a union and made a request. Mr G Shier moves, in amendment, that this motion be laid on the table till next meeting of Council, and that previous to that time the Clerk shall carefully search the minutes for any record regarding said union and shall bring papers and documents. The amendment being put the yeas and nays were demanded. The yeas were Messrs ¢ Shier and St John Nays, Messrs Brethour and A Shier. The Reeve voted with the yeas and de- clared the amendment carried. Mr G Shier moved that the petition of Jas Campbell and others praying for the ap- pointment of a liquor detective in the village of Cannington be laid on the table. A voice,-- Do you intend to lay it on the table till next meeting of council ?" Mr Shier, --Well, since I have been asked I must say that I had no intention that it should come np at next meeting us I really cannot see any benefit likely to arise from the appointment, an efficient liquor inspec-- tor has already been appointed snd 1 can see no good likely to result from the Appoint-- ment of a second, Motion carried. Mr French asked the Recve whether the License Inspector had been legally appoint-- ed? The Reeve replied that the by-law making the appointment had not yet pessed through all its stages, Mr G Shier moved that fhe by-law for granting Tavern and Shop Licenses be now read a second time: and the council resolve itself into comm'ttee, Mr Brethour in the chajr. The blanks were filled up as suzgested by the mover and the committee rose and report the by-law as amended. Report received and adopted and the by- law read a third time and passed, signed and sealed. Mr, Brethour introduced an carried through a by-law to appoint certain township officers. In the appointment of an assessor the greatest desire was manifested to have fully compet. ent men appointed; the matter was thorough- ly discussed as to whether one or two assess- ors should be appointed. It was finally eed however that two should be appoint-- ed Mr Wm Thompson for the north and Mr. L Joues for the south at a salary of $60 each, and the by-law passed accordingly. The auditors Messrs Baird and Lucas pres-- sented their report which being caretully ex- amined by the council was on motion of Mr- hour fally audited and allowed, that 200 copies of the detail be printed .and the abstract published according as the law directs. Mr:Brethour said that some of the trustees of school section -- are present and complain that the collector bad not handed over all the money rought by said section but had kept back $5 as cost of collecting. Accord- ing to theLhief Supt's opiniou obtained by the trustees the full amount asked for must be paid over and he would advise that the collector do deliver over the amount and whatever may be the necessary charge for collecting can be levied against the seetion next year, The collector said that he had no objection to handiit over and leave :it to the court to decide how much he is entitled to for his trouble. Mr Barker collector for the South returned his roll having collected within $9.03 of the face of the roll, Mr Lock complained of having had a sheep -destroyed by a on Monday last and charged a dog of one Mr McPhadyen as be. ing one of two. dogs which had done the damage. Mr Lock had on the day following he informed Mr McPhadyen of the fact and e at once killed his dog but he rcfused to the damaggand Mr Lock means to com- pel him to pay. Mr Brown had, a sheep worth $3.50 killed, Mr Acton had a sheep worth $5 killed. Mr Ward had lost 7 sheep worth $5 each. Only, 3 out of a fipek of 16 had escaped being damaged to a.greater or less extent, Oa motion of Mr G-Shier two thirds of the damage in gach case . were ordered to be On motion the sum of $12 was ordered to be paid to each of the auditors. 4 Mr Brethour said he had a motion to sub- mit which would be like] cause some discussion as involving a y large appro- Priaticn but he could assure the Council that ie, | it was absolutely necessary ; he would. move ute! that Messrs G Shier, St John and the mover be a Committee to let contracts for the building of two bridges over the marsh one in the Lth and one in the 6th concession. tai Teste wad he would offer no ol jection the appropriation necessary they must both be built at this time ; might not one of them at least be repaired and stand for a yeer or two longer.

Another Session. : The gecond session of the third parliament of the Dominion was opcned with cosider- able circumstance on Thursday last, The speech from the throne was both short and simple and under no circumstances can the Government be taunted at the close of the session, for promising more than they have given for they have promised next to nothipg. « "The House will have come down to their work next week and our readers will be supplied with whatever is ifiteresting in the proceedings; 8o far they arc only clearing the decks and preparing for action. Why Don't they take it All? A general raid is to be made on the Treas- ury. Mr McKengie, Premier of the Dominion Government, is to have his salary increased to $12,000 a year, or $1,000a month. The other Cabinet Ministers are to have their salaries increased to $10,000 a year ; and the civil service men are each ex- pecting an annual increase in their sflary of $100, this increase to continue each Wear for five years, so thavat the end of five ycars their salaries will be $500 more every " year than now. The Beautiful Snow. Parties desirous of cultivating an intimate acquaintance with "the beautiful snow" will find all that they wish and alittle more by trying to navigate (in a cutter) the centre road betsveen Manchester and Sunderland. -- Some people assert that one cagnot have too much of a good thing, but if being rolled | through thirteen miles of snow drifts varying from ten feet deep to no one knows how many be not a little too much of a good thing wo must be sadly mistaken. | ¢ is painfull obvious that blustering February is making sport of us all, he is blocking up our road- ways and clogging the wheels of tusiness.-- He is depriving ms of our mails and not a few of us of our meals, and if he goes. on at the rate he is doing the fingers, toes and noses will be all shortened by an inch or two not speaking of the damage done to the lugs. It is a mercy the scamp'is short lived, if he bad six weeks in place of four do cut up his pranks he would clean us all ont. A few more feet of the beautiful snow and we will get rid of him, The Manchester Monthly Fair washeld on Wednesday, 10th inst. If cattle could fly or ! 4ravel through snow drifts ten or a dozen feet deep there might have been a larger suppi; but a3 it was the supply was good | and severai buyers Dut in an appearande.

The village and the township in fact, arc munch indebted to the energy and enterprise of Mr, Christign and other business men at Manchester fot maintaining an active and increasing busi- ness in the centre of the township. The next will be the Easter Fair and pri- zes will be offered. A Seed Fair will also be held at the same time and prizes will be of- fered for seed, It is tobe hoped that the weather will be more favorable for the next fair Johnston Bros & Co's ¥ariety Con- cert.

'The annual entertainment given in the Prince Albert Hall, on Wednesday exening, 10th inst, by the Prince Albert Bible Chris tain Church was such as tha past record of the Entertainments of this Church led the people to expect, The treat could be desired. The ladies sus reputation as excellent caterers for the com~ fort of their guests. The capital choir of that Church un der the efficient leadership of Mr. I, J.

Of this Brock will have to pay $2,684; Reach $2,458.-- Pretty handsome amounts, and it is little wonder if the representatives of these municipalities do look sharply after the expenditure ; these two townships together pay consfd- erably over one fourth of the whole expenditure.

After enjoying an excellent supper got up in a style worthy of the reputation of "the active host, the cloths were drawn and the loyal and patriatic toasts were given from the chair and responded to by the company! with much enthusiasm, but in good taste -- The Chairman on rising to propose the health of the guest of evening said he little expected the honor of presiding on this oc- casion as it had been expected up till abou the time of assembling that the M. P. P. for that gentleman being unavoidably prevented from being present the honor had fallen into less efficient bands. The Chairman then read the following address :-- H. L. Hansuzs, L. D. 84 Dean Sm,--As Chairman oh this oc- casion the following address has heen putjin- to my hand, expressive of the scitiments not alone of this large company of your sincer® friends and wellwishers who have thus desire! to entertain you to a public Supper "on this the eve of your removal from amongst us, but of the entire community amongst whom you have resided and successfully practised your. profession as Surgeon Dentist for the. past five years. We can assure you, sir, that it is with mingled feclings of satisfaction and regret that we refer to your early removal from amongst us. We are satisfied that. this step 1as not been prompted either by a lack of success in your profession or a want of ap- preciation, on the pait of the community, of your valuable professional services or of your many good qualities asa neighbor and ful. low townsman. We feel satisfied that this action on your part is prompted by that laudable desire wisely implanted in the mind of man, prompting him to seek new and more extended fields of enterprise and usefulness. Our feclings of regret are undoubtedly of a selfish nature arising from a sense of the loss we shall sustain notonly in being deprived of your professional services but of your so- ciety as a valued neighber and townsman. With regard toyonr fature success, under the blessing of God, we have no 'manner of of doubt ; your thorough gkill in every, branch of your profession, your long experience, and the complete success which has attended your practice during the five years in which you have practiced in this locality are the best guarantees for your future success, We are pleased to know that you are about to locate comparatively near to us, and that you have selected Oshawa, one of the most prosperous and enterprising towns in the Dominson, as your future field of labor and usefulness, and where, as here, in the prac- tice of your profession you will doubtless meet with that degree of success to which your superior ability so justly entitles you. In conclusion, Sir, yon will please accept the best wishes of this community for the -future prosperity . and happiness of your self, rey partner of your life and your interesting family, Hoping that gc ness and mercy may follow you and all that are dear to you all days of your life, we are yours, &c. The guest replied briefly but feel. ingly, expressing his entire satis. faction with and thankfulness for the sige measure of success Wl * 'has attended the_practice of his profession since settling in the locality ; every encouragement he said, had been given him, he had had all the business he could attend to and had only object in moving is to get into a new and more extended field, But as the time approaches he finds much more difficulty than he anticipated in severing the ties of friendship so long and so intimately J tween him and tho people of {his sectior Jatest country and istence will be North Ontario should have that honor, but| every reason to be satisfied with the results, !
