He would be opposed to taking in any portion of Prince Albert unless a majority are willing to come in; to force them in against their will would be unwise and injurious to the best interests of tho town by keeping upa continual bickering and contention ; he would not offer any objection to incorporating as a town with our present boundaries if it would not cost much or create an increased expenditure ; he is perfectly satisfied, however, with the village as it is, Mr Jonas Swuiith considers that it would be better to allow the matter Jot incorpora- tion as a town to rest for the present at least, he cannot see' what advantage it would be to the village to seek a change at this time ; he cannot see any profit st will be to the village to pass into the position of town now. Mr Parrish is surprired to hear parties talk ot noadvantage being likely to result from our incorporating as a town. Every one knows how much better the name of "vill age is than that of "corners" and a eimilar degree the name "town" has the advantage over "village" It must be obvious to all that further debentures of this incorporation will ere long be thrown upon the market and éveryone must know that the debentures of a town will always sell much better than those of a village.
