Some time ago there was a dancing arty given '* up north," near Weaver ville, Cal. Most of the ladies little babies, whose noisy perversity required 100 much attention to allow the mothers 10 enjoy the dance. A numberof gallant young men volunteered to watch the young ones while the parents indulged in a "break down." No sooner had the women left the babies in charge of "the mischievous rascals, than they strip. ped the infants, changed their clothes, giving to one the apparel of another. The dance over, it was time to go home, and the mothers hurriedly took each a baby, in the dress of her ows: and start wl, some to their home en or fifieen miles off, and were far on their way be. fore daylight. But the day following (LEA HLIA Everything 1s complete and in good work HAS FOR SALE A FIRST RATE been accumulzting Tix so long "a period reat deal of time hos buon necessasils " wpent by the Clerk in fixing the non-re- sident land rol's, the taxes on which are 10 ri lieve us of our entire indebtedness. He has al<o firmed «nd submitted 10 the . Council an estimate of the necessary outlay required in the Township, alto. gether showing a very cheering prospect \ for the future. ] It is exceedingly gratifying to find that we are not in debt above what we are well able to pay. It would seem from the Clerk's statement that thenon-resi- | dent land texes will cover the whole amount of our indebtedness ; and conse. quently the Council have wisely deter- mined to expend an amount of $2,500 for the purpose of repairing the Roads and Bridges in the different sections of "the Township. Now, if our roads were in good order, the Council would be in a position to fulfil the promise made by them, at the polls, in January last, viz :--reducing the taxes fifty per cent; and indeed it laid in their power en Monday last to re- fuse to appropriate a single cent towards the much needed repairs on our roads ; but they acted in accordance with the known wishes of their constituents, and | therefore are entitled to the thanks of "the Township. Another fact our readers will be glad to learn, and that is in reference to the claim of the Township on W.
