this delay, and encement of the session. They did Know that the ries of the House caused , and particularly the formality in reference to the appointment of standing on | committees. i ERRY, MAR. 8, 1681. . -- Ontario Legislature js mak- a spurt provious to its winding? wh ch is expected to take place MOITow. The 24th ult, was quite n work \y in the House. Mr. Wood, Pro- incial Treasurer, brought in an im- ns bill regarding market fees and toll: gates. The bill makes two very sensible propositions regarding market foos. It is proposed that if eitios, towns or villages cbarge voarket fees then farmers and others bringing in produce for sale may or may not go to the market to sell the same; but if markets are free then partios may be compelled to go to the market to sell their produce.-- This fs certainly an improvement on the old tyrannical systom: of impos jog market fees and eompelling parties to go to the market to soll their produce. It is contended by some that farmers and others com- ming into the market ought to pay fous in order to bear their portion of the cost of the market buildings. -- There is indirect taxes enough laid on farmers coming into cities or towns without insulting them with a direct tax, farmers coming in with produce don't alone help to pay * foe market baildings but they help to pay the cost of building stores, hotels and all other public buildings without being imposed upon with a direct tax as well. Besides giving the _city or town the profit of the produce brought in farmers eoming in with such produce always spend less or. more money as well for the accommodation they receive as for the goods they may purchase. All cities and towns have sufficient in- direct profit from the farmers who come in without annoying them by laying a direct tax upon them. If «cities or towns cannot afford to build aod maintain market buildings lot them do without and if farmers wish to come in they can go where they please t) sell their produce, but if cities or towns for their convenience wish to have market buildings where produce shall be cold why tax farmers to maintain such buildings. 1t is very well if farmers consent for 'the contenience of citizens to tako their produce to the public market without making thom pay for it.-- Wo are too glad to seo farmers come into our town to seck to bore them with an extra tax, would be pleased to do whatever we could to encourage them to come in without picking their pockets when wo get them hore. . On the same day Mr. Hardy 'brought in bis Tavern and Shop License Bill. . 'The new bill provides for grant. ing license for the salo of boer and wine alone to the exclusion of all other liquors, the license foe for such just to be one balf of what is now aid for ordinary store and tavern censes for selling all kinds of liquors. License for selling wine sr alone in cities is to be 850, 5 $40 and in all other munici- of course the councils of % But it remained for Mr. Paxton to {cap the climax of absardity ; we can imagi the learon Mr Paxton's countenance, the knowing twinkle of hiseye, it must have,been hard for him to maintain his gravity when giving utterance to the following pun. ; | "Me. Paxfon considered that the business could not be transacted with greater expedi- tion than at present. The members were worked hard enough as it was." Listen to the sarcasm; 'the members were worked hard enough as it was". Mr Paxton could net possibly be in earnest,ho don't surely call twenty or thirty minutes ses- sione for the first three weeks "hard enough work." But thisis imposing a little too far on the simplicity of too easily: blinded taxpayers who from year to year permit 88 men to assemble in Toronto to attend to a few odds and ¢nds ot the Province, and pay them annually gome sixty or seventy thousand dollars for doing that which from fiftoen to twenty good men could do in a couple or three weeks for one tenth part of the money, and after all to have a majority of this crowd toll us that they are in ne hurry that they can sweet the taxpayers. One sometimes thinks that it serves the taxpayers right when they allow the farce to go on. On Monday the Government brought in their railway policy granting aid to the following lines, viz. The Erie and Huron Railway is to receive $6,150 a yeur for twenty yoars, Tha Stratford and Huron Railway gets $9,632 a year for twenty years, The Georgian Bay and Wellington Railway $1,845 a yoar for twenty years. The Sault Ste. Maurie line isto get a bonus from the Government of $356,000 or $2,850 per mile for about one third of the distance-- 300 miles 'from Graven- hurst to the Sault. EE-- Matrimonial.--A quiet wedding took place this afternoon at the residence of the bride's mother, Aylmer street, the contract- ing parties, both of whom are well known to our readers, being Mr. Thomas 0: Rush and Miss Bella Uin, The bridal presents were numerous and costly, coming from an exceedingly large number of persona friends.
