Official Paper of the PRINCE ALBERT, AUGUST 16, 1866. County. rr ~ THE NEW MUNICIPAL ACT. Believing that it will be acceptable to our readers, we propose to give. a synopsis of the changes made in our Municipal system, (so far as they relate fo Townships,) by the Act which hae just received the Royal as- sent, and become the law ¢f Upper Canada. Sab-section four of section sixty-six pro- vides that « The Councill of every Town- ship shall consist of a Reeve, who shall be the head tliereof, and four Councillors, and if the Township had the names of five hundred resident freeholders and house- holders on the last revised Assessment Roll, then of a Reeve, Deputy-Reeve and three Councillors, and for every additional five hundrad names on such roll there shall be elected an additiona] Deputy-Reeve instead of a Councillor." Under the new law tho Townships of Reach and Pickenng, will be entitled to have an additional Deputy-Reeve each. In addition to those digqualified to hold the office of Reeve, Deputy Reeve or Coun- cillor by the old law, Section 73 provides « that no Assessor, Collector, Treasurer, Chamberlain or Clerk of any Municipality shall be qualified to be a member of the Council of the Corporation." ELECTORS. Section 75 provides that «The Electors of every municipality for which there 1s an assessment roll, and the Electors of every police village, shall be the male freeholders thereof, whether resident or not, and such of the householders there- of as have been resident therin for one month next before the eleciion, who are natural-im or naturalized subjects of Her sty, and of the full age of twenty-one sand who were severally bt not y rated on the last revjsed assessment &, for real property in the municipality or police village, held in their own right or that of their wives as proprietors or tenants ; and such rating shall be absolute and final, and shall not be questioned either by any Leturning Officer, or on any application to set aside any election under the said Act respecting the Municipal Iustitutions of Upper Cauvada." In Townships such real property, whether freehold or leasehold, or partly each, must have been so rated as of al least the actual valne of one hundred dollars. ELECTION OF MEMBERS, Section 86 provides that «The Electors of every city, town, town- ship and incorporated village, shall elect annually, on the first Monday in January, the members of the Council of the munici- "pality; and at the first meeting ot the Coun- cil of such city, town, township, or incorpor- ated village, held in the month of January after the passingof the Act, the Council shall determine by ballot, to be taken under the direction of the Mayor, Reeve or Pre- siding Officer which of the members of the Council being one-half or ag near as may be, shall retire at the end of the then cur- rent year, and aleo at the end of the next subsequent year, andthe members of the Couneil whose retirement shall be so de- termined by ballot, shall cease to be mem- bers of such Cquneil, from the period when such retirement is to take place, but shall be eligible for re-election, and thereafter one-half or as near as may be of every coun- cil shall retire every year." ELECTION OF REEVES AND DEPUTY REEVES. Section 89 provides that Tha election in townships and incorpor- ated villages of Reeves, Deputy Reeves and Councillors shall'be by general vote, and shall be held atthe place or places where the last meeting of thecouncil was held, or in'such other place or places as may be from time to time fixed by by-law." ' "PROCEEDINGS AT ELECTIONS. * Section 97 provides that A meting of the Electors shal jiake place for the nomination of candidates for the of- ficos of Reeve, Deputy Reeves, Councillors and olive Trusipes ' ja towoatinks Togerger- ted villages villages, at noon, fob a en December aunually, at such place therein as shall from time to time be fixed by By-law. ¢ The Clerk shall preside at such meet- ing, <of which he shall give at least six «days notice. If only the necessary number of candidates to fill the vacant offices, bas been proposed, the Clerk or Chairman shall after the lapse of one hour declare the can- didate or candidates elected. If more than the necessary number of candidates are proposed, and a poll is demanded by any candidate or elector, the clerk or chairman shall adjourn the proceedings until the first Monday in January, wher.a poll or polls shall be opened in each Electoral Division, ot nine o'clock in the morning, and shall continue open until five o'clock in the afier- noon, and no longer." It will be observed that the principal changes in the law are the making Reeves and Deputy Reeves glective by popular vote ; making population the basis of re- presentation in the County Council ; the substitution of Electoral Divisions for Wards; the determining by ballot which of the members of the Council shall retire at the end of each year ; the holding a meeting in December of each year for the ndmination of candidates ; limiting the time of polling to one day ; and requiring each elector to be rated upon real property for not less than one hundred dollars. It will be seen that a candidate for the office of Reeve or De- puty Reeve cannot at the same time be a candidate for that of Councillor. The new law effectually does away with that system of Ward legislation of which some have complained, and though we be- lieve that the Township of Reach has but little to complain of in this direction, yet we conceive that to make each Councillor responsible to the whole people is e pretty certain guarantee that the general interests of the pesple will be better promoted than under the old system. Sr------------ = ------ HAILROAD MEETING. Pursuant to a resolution passed at the meeting held in Port Perry, a meeting will be held in the Town Hall, in this Village, on Friday evening next at 7o'clock to take into consideration the practicability of con- structing a railroad fiom Port Perry to Lake Ontario. It is expected that there will be persons in attendance who will be able to give satisfactory explanations of the routes proposed, and of the steps necessary to be taken lo secure the building of the road. The important gnestions in connection with this subject are, will the road pay? and where is the money 10 come from to build it ? All are interested in this matter, and we hope fo see a large attendance. THAYER NOYES' & COS CIRCUS. This great combination circus holds torth in Prince Albert, on Monday next.

Mr. Graham moved in amendment that the amount of $4.50 1n the original resolu- tion now under consideration be erased, and that the Justiges of the Peace receive (he sum of Bs ants per mile, for each mile traveled by them 10 the place of examina- tien. « ! On motich 'the Council went into com- 'mittee of the whole on the above resolution. Mr. Major in the chair. . The committee arose and reported fhe the original motion, which on motion of the Mr. Campbell was adopted.

' Leave granted, and the By-law was in- troduced, read the first, second and third times and passed. : Mr. Graham moves for leave to introduce a By-law to repeal that portion of By-law No. 384, which appoints A. W. Ewers and Joseph Bowles, ,commissioners, and to amend the same by placing the name of J. Graham in the room and stead thereof ; also to repeal that portion of By-law No. 393, sioner, and to place the name of Herring- ton instead thereof ; ulso that Samuel Burkholder, and E.

Graham, and the mover, be appointed, to take into consideration the subject of aesisting in the erection of a Drill Shed in the Village of Prince" Albert, to report to the Council at this meeting.-- Carried. On motion the Council then adjourned for two hours. Council resumed. Mr. Major moves that the account of W. E. Yarnold, amounting to $12, for survey- ing the road allowaiice between Lots 12 and 13 in the 4th concession, be paid, and that the Clerk grant an order on the Treasurer for the same.-- Carried which appoints Andrew Scott a commis-| hed to it, he could not come to any other conclusion than he did. d he regretted that the re- cent survey had deprived Mr. Gordon of about nine t of his land, yet he thought he could attach no blame to the Council. Every efloit had been 'made to come to a settlement in regard to it. He (Mr, Wright) bad called upon Mr. Gordon some time since and endeavored to get him to give up his claims to the gore of land which he had 'purchased from Mr. Tyler, and let 1t go into the road, in order that the road might be straightened. If Mr. Gordon had consented to do this he would have se- oured the lot on the corner, which would have answered his purpose, He regretted that Mr. Gordon had refused to come to any compromise. But did not see that the Council could do anything to aseist him in the matter. i bn Mr. Campbell moved that the Reeve, E. Major and the mover, wait upon the Rev. Mr. Mitchell and A. Gordon, to try and ar- range the matter in dispute in regard to the road matter in .Manchester.-- Carried.

The plan having beea Communications, To the Editor of the Ontario Observer. BoreLza, August 7th, 1866. Dear Sir,--As newspaper discussions seem to be the order of the day ; allow me to occupy a small space in your columns, to vindicate or rather defend the Village of Borelia; relative, to the discussion between "Quiz" and « Sketoher." Asa ground work for my remarks, I deny that any per- son living in the Village of Borelia is guilty of the charge laid}against him, namely: tha of inquiring of the good people of Brock, why they"did not make as a great a display of loyalty during the Fenian troubles as they did in election tines. I understand the in- habitants of Brock are made to believe that the letters were written by a'citizen of Bo- relia. Indeed Mr. Editor, one would sup- pose by reading the first letter that it did emanate from Borelia. I hold the premises I have taken lo be correet, in denying that " Quiz" lives in Borelia. Listen to ¢"Quiz's"' own words An acknowledgment is counted proof in all cases, He writes thus : ' [4 I cannot close, however, without hurling back the aspersion cast upon the Volunteers of this Village." What Village ! I anawer Prince Albert. He says, aga, "not a member of Captain Forman's company flinched when the hour of trial came."-- Now every person knows that Captain Forman's company is com posed for the most part of the men of Prince Albert, and not of the Village of Borelia ; there is, I be- heve, about four, all told, who are members of the company, and who reside here ; but head quarters is at Prince Albert, and that is what « Quiz" meaus when he says of this village, otherwise he would have said of Prince Albert ; that is providing he lived out of Prince Albert. He made a great mistake ; surely he eet the trap and was the first one to fall into it. Bad policy that - Quiz," you should .not venture quite so ar. " Vessels large may venture moo But little boats Stoald keep near shore." So, Mr. Editor, I think " Quiz" might as well own up the corn, and beg that my (using his own words,) humble, acknow-e ledgment will atone for the sin of offending his delicate sensibilities with a discordant sound or an improper word, yes, a very im- proper word, 1 you said "this Village" (that is, providing you live in Borelia). I would advise ¢ Quiz" that in future, when writing upon this or any other subject, that if he wishes to deceive the public and don't wish it known where he lives, he must be careful how he places his words ; but, pei- haps, he imagined himself away back in'the fourteenth century, when people might have slipped over, and not noticed the difference between ¢ this" or ¢ that" village. 'Quiz' may ask what ig'all this fues about ? It is that the people of Borelia do not wish to be accused, as we have been, of writing against the loyalty of Broek, as indicated mn the first communication of " Quiz." There is no doubt but we have our faults in commen with others, but to be saddled with the faults and sins-of others, 1 mean persons hiving outside, we don't feel disposed to concede to, and if " Quiz" wishes to continue his newspaper writing, and date his articles Borelia, I would advises him to move down to this village, for I repeat, and say again, that the acknowledgment he makes by say- ing" in this village" is prima facie evi- dence that he lives in Prince Albert, and not in Borelia. Hoping that " Quiz" will take the advice, move down, and become a citizen of this village. Thanking you, Mr Editor, for having 80 patient ; and at the same lime hoping you will pass over any mpaiotoas of ve: ! : Yours, &. x FAIR PLAY. ar The Welland T'degraph says that the masters of »a. number 'of véesels passing through the canal. from the west, report that it was with the utmost difficulty that they could obtain hands at Erie and Cleve land to load their wessels, on account of most of the daborers being in prepafation for a Fenian raid upon Canada. A large number of the men from Ene and €leve- land ai reported by them to have left for registered and the seal of the corporation Buffalo to join the Fenian ranks. But it now tu t that the survey wae incorrect, and (hg and which he believed to be a valu \ding site, and which he paid a la am of money for, is so much less than 58" bad been led to. believe | from the registered plan, that it was entire- | Jy valueless.

A NEW Wik croup, Hearr's ContEsT, Aug. 8H Mm. ship | Terrible and the steamer Albany left op Wednesday morning, and the Great Easern and Medway are fully supplied with coal and provisions. The members of the expedi- tion are determined to recover and complete the Cable of 1865, if it be possible. The Great Eastern has about 8,000 tons of coal on board and provisions enough for a six months' cruise. New York, Aug. 10, midnight.--A des- putch received {rom Superintendent Mackay, dated at Asp\\Bay to-night, states that the cable across the Gf of St. Lawrence from Aspy Bay to Port au ue, was un- der run by him in the depth of 75 fathoms. that portion of it lying in water of 60 fathoms deep was found imbedded in mud and was in a splendid state of preservation. It was found to have been broken in places by the anchors of fishing vessels. It was spliced, at a distance of 13 miles from the shore, but the night coming on very dark with a high gale and heavy sea, they were obliged to cut the cable under Cape North, where it was safely buoyed in 30 fathoms of water, Mr. Mackay states 'wo shall await a fine day to land the shore end. The cable tests well and there is not the least defect in it. New York will soon be in satisfactory communication with London.' New York, Aug, 11.--The morning papers have the following despatches from Europe by the cable: -- eo LionpoN, Aug. 9.--There 1s great excite- ment here this evening at a supposed at- tempt to-blow up the two Houses of Parlia- ment. Ten packages of gunpowder, With a fuse partly burned, were found near the entrance to the Lord Chamberlain's office in the House of Lords. The members of Par- liament have visions of another ¢Guy Fawkes' gunpowder plot. The deaths from cholera in London during the last week were 1,053. The Britic}l Parliament was prorogued on the 10th. Ithe Speech from the Throne, Queen Vietayia fecommends peace in Europe and continued observance of British neutrality. She thanks the United States Government for its action during the Fenian raide in Canada, and expresses her joy atthe completion of the Atlantic Tele- graph, 2 New York, Aug. 13. Napoleon has demanded from Prussia the rectification of the French frontier by ite ex- tension to the Rhine ae it was marked prior to its disturbance in 1814. The military and naval preparations which are beinglcar- ried on in France, induced the belief that the Emperor will make war if his demand is not peacefully complied with. An armistice has been concluded between Italy and Austria on the basis of the ces- sion of Venetia to Italy. ee ---- DETAILS OF THE NEW ORLEANS RIOT, * A New Orleans despatch to the Tribune says, official information at head quarters shows that the statement of Lieut.-Gov. Voorhees, that 42 'policemen and several citizens were either killed or wounded, ie an unmitigated falsehood. Tne policeman died of sunstroke, and about 'three were badly wounded. One citizen, a rebel, was killed accidently by the police on the other side. The sequel will show the slaughter to be over 100 Union men, and the wound- ing of about 300. It is. stated from trustworthy authonty, that Gen. Sheridan's telegraph of the 1st of August was perverted for political purposes. Among the sentences witheld from publica- tion was one that he held Mayor Mornee responsible forthe murders eommitted on Monday. Lieut. Butts, of the Freedmen's Bureau, has been murdered und robbed in Jackson parish. The rebels are complaining that they thd not kill enough Yankees and conven- tioners, but brag that the ume is coming when they will finish their work. : Union men are afraid to go out on the streets after dark, and invariably barricde their homes during the might. While the present police is composed of Thugs, life is terribly insecure, day or night. A Washington special to the Tyibune says: A private leiter to Gen. Howard, Inspector General, dated Yicksburg, 3rd, states that things are getting worse in this country every day. At least thity have been killed during the last six weeks in this country. Within the last 1wenty-four hours one union southern and twe northern men have complained that they have come to town beeaure they dare not remain lon- r on their places near Edwardsburg. A Leavenworth special says: The ex~ press messenger from Jungtion City, Kan- sas, has received information from a brother of one of the massacreed men, that the Indians have wardered six men in ihe vicinity of Fort Lawrence. ~The Indian war has commenced again. ust . Orrawa, Avg. 13. Another Fenian raid appears to be anti- cipated by the:authorities here. A regiment of regulars has been ordered from Mon- to-night.

Thayer, Noyes & Co.'s famous circus made a grand entree 10 the gity"this morning, headed by an excellent band of music, in a superb chariot, drawn by a splendid stud, attached to the carriages con- taining the troupe of athletes ani eques- trians. The animal vans, properties wag- gnos, &o., followed in order, the procession stretching out to a considerable length, and exhibiting the establishment to be one of great magnitude and superior resources.-- largely patronized, embraced a variety of novelties in the arena, and the entertain- ment was generally pronounced first clase. The irrepressible funny-man was profuse in his witticisms, and in the i of his long absence from Hamilton, he has evi- dently been studious in cultivating the lu- dicrons.-- Hamilton Evening Times, 11th. The Cleveland Herald, of the 25th ull, says of the establishment :-- : " This splendid combination of all that goes to make up a first-class organization, closed their three days' entertainment on Saturday evening. Without doubt this cir- cus is the most perfect and complete of any that has visited us in years ; and has done an immense business during their stay in the city. There has been two perform- ances each day, and at all of them the immense pavillion has been crowded to its utmost capacity, notwithstanding the fact that heavy storms of rain have prevailed every day, and would have interfered seri- ously with any other kind of entertainment not possessing the merit and high order of altraction possessed by this institution. We have spoken of the talent connected with this extensive establishment bot have over- looked two of the very best--Mr. James De Mott and Madame Josephine De Brun, the accomplished bare-backed riders. The try, we believe, who attempts the bare-back feats with any success. We can freely commend the proprietors, Messrs. James L. Thayer and C. W. Noyes, as gentlemen of honor ; and the entertainment over which they have control ie the best of the kind in the country, and worthy of the largest pa- tronage."" Tuaver, Novis & Co's CoMBINATION Cincus.--This splendid troupe made its grand entry into Brantford yesterday morn- ing, proceeded by its fine band in a magni- ficiently-appointed carriage, and gave two exhibitions, one in the afternoon and one in the evening. On both occassions the spacious canvas wis crowded to the utmost capacity by delighted sightseers. This circus comprizes some very fine horses and trained animals. An excellent corps of of gymnasts and acrobats elicited frequent applause by their daring feats. The splen- did' performances by Pro. G. M. Kelly, of a somersault over 12 horses ranged abreast, 1s deserving of special remark. We must not omit to mention-the equestrienne Carlotta De Berg, who attracted universal C. W. Moys' performance with Gray Eagle and Monkeyis truly amusing and drew roars of laughter {rem the visitors. The riding by Tom King and wife, and R. Stickney, is of a very superior order ; the sumersaults of the latter being 1n themselves a wonder. The Miaco Bros. are the principal gymnasts, and perforin in fine style, The learned dogs are truly a curiosity and perform well, Altogether this circus 18 above the average of perambulatory exhibitions, and it is owing to its excellent management that in every place it secures a fair share of patronage.

The Gazelle has the following to- which I have reason to believe is correct :-- ¢We have it from reliable authoity that on Friday last, Sweeney and a number of other persons were holding a conversation at St. Albans-- Governor Smith of Verman was present-- when Sweeney remarked that | fluence could be brought to bear on President Johnson so that the arms and ammunition seized by the U, S." Govern- meent should be given up to the Fenian .or-| ganization, and if no further arrests were weather arnved. Sweeney also went on lo say, that if they did not succeed with Presi- dent Johnson, there would be no. raid, this Fall, but they knew the Republican party were allin thew favor--that ihe first raid was only a feint to try what force the Cana- it 18 so fur successful, as it showed that the available force of men on the Canadian side was below what was stated. The arms which had been seized had all been moved forward near<the frontier, and if given up would be in a convenient position for use. The performance this afternoon, which was | lady 1s the only one of Her sex in the conn-|* and the modest way he interlards the whole is worthy of remark. We are further in- formed that a Canadian, lately retuned from haying at Fairfield d that he had seen three guns in a 'barn, which were placed in the mow, but were removed into the open pat of the barn when the hay was putin. He was also red by different people that thee were guns in' three other barns in that vicinity. They were described as ¢ nice pieces." A INTEREST-BEARING DEBENTURES. The advertisement for tenders for deben- tures promised by Mr. Galt, appeared in the Canada Gazette of Saturday, and is to the effect that applications will be received up to the 10th prox. by the Receiver-General's Di forthe purch of Provincial debentures, to be 1ssued in denominations of $100, $200, $500, and $1,000, 'and beat 7 per cent interest, payable half-yearly, and redeemable on the 1st Sept,, 1868, at the sama office,-at par.
