It was not lone to aid the teachers in the solution of the questionsâ€" He was bound to acâ€" knowledge that the answers were put down at near the close of the examination in order to give the candidates an idea of how they stood. As~to charge No. 4, which had reference to the arithmetical questions, he did pass the slips of paper, and on some of them ho wrote, " You have passed in English Grammar; this he did to encourge the candidates, and send them home in goodâ€" humour. He showed no favouritism ; what he did to one, he did to ali. No advantage was given to one more than another. And he interpreted «bis object as being quite in accordance with the solemn obligation taken by all examiners. As to charge No. 5, he reâ€" membered stating that the next paper for examinatior would be in Physiology, und by a singular coincidence he hapâ€" pened to ray something about the "numâ€" ber of your teeth," but he emphatically donied knowing the contents of the pa‘per on Physiology, inasmuch as the sea! of it had not beea broken, he did not know that there was any reference to the subâ€" joct of teeth in that paper, The time of the ‘examination was extended by his sanction, but he could not state that it was done at his instanceâ€"that was a privilege appertaining to his office, as Chairm«@n of the Board of Examinersâ€" the time was extended, but he did not take the responsibility upon himself, if it was not with the sanction of his coâ€" examiners, it was with their knowledge. Mr. Gibb suggested that the examinaâ€" tion of Mr. ggrthwick should be conâ€" ducted by the Commissioners, as Mr. McDowall had no locus standi and it was not competent for him to put questions.

There was a large meeï¬w of the rateâ€" payers of the Wellington Ward held in the German Hall, Sparks stréet, last night at eight o‘clock. Arhongst those present were many of the leading. rateâ€" payers of the ward, who seemed to maniâ€" fest great interest in municipal afftairs. â€" _ Mr. Willism Holland was i}:pointod Chairman of the meeting, and Mr. J. H. P. Gibeon requested to act as Secretary. Mr. E. C. Barssrz explained the objootl of the meeting to be the selecting of canâ€" | didates for the apFrowhing llnniol}nl elections, as some of the present Alderâ€" men had signified their intention of re signing. It been rumoured that he was likely to be a candidate, but he had no intention in this direction, but as a hum~â€" ble rateâ€"payer, he was prepared to assist in choosing suitable men to look sharply after the interests of the Mumoi&lit.y. He expect d that some of the Alâ€" dermen would be present to exXplain the freaent condition of Municipal affairs. Ie aeflected somewhat severely upon the extravagance in connection with the con:â€" templated expenditure in connection with the opening of Murray street and the Chaudiere bridges. bal l * _ Mr. Fraxx A Bort, at the soliciation of many, next addressed the meeting. He c )mpininod of the extraordinary increase of taxation ia the last two or three years. He said the taxes were doubled in two years over previous levies. He thought it was highly desirable to have a change. He for one would assist in endeavouring to place more suitable representatives in the City Council. . n en css Mr. W. H. Courz said that he had some stake in the ward, and as a rateâ€" payer he was desirous that this should be protected in common with that of other ratepayersâ€" ‘I‘ve rate of taxation had inâ€" cveaced enormously and unless some curb were ng»plied it would lead the city to inevitable bankruptey. _ He strongly denounced the idea of a continuance of the powers of the Water Commission. It was bad enough to have one reckless corporation without having another still worse, one whose actions were screened from public scrutiny,. It would never do to allow double collections and‘ a double system of asseesmens in one municiâ€" pality. He thought great economy would â€"be gained by having the Water Works revert to the corporation. (Applause.) Mr. Rows, who had just entered the | room, spoke in resfonn to repeated calls. He seid it was but fair that Aldermen should render an account of their stewâ€" ariship. He expected that his confreres would have been present, but as ‘they did not put in &n appearance he would offer a few observations on municipal affairs, and then endeavour to answer such questions ‘as might b:u{““ to him by the electors. The financial condition was truly not in a very satisfactory posiâ€" tion from the number of pressing improveâ€" ments that were forced upon the city. The improvements were all, howâ€" ever, of great ‘benefit to the city, and â€" could no:] under the circumâ€" stances, be dered as extravagance, Some $55,000 had been spent in the public improvements, of which aufount Wellington Ward" had received $25,000. Many of the improvements in the Ward were of a permanent nature, and would add materially to the prosperity of the Ward. _ He cited the opening. up of Sparks ~and Eilgin streets, and â€" the improvement of Bauk street, as instances of this. The Council could not, however, go farther, and next year all improveâ€" ments would have to lw&ou the money was exhausted ; _ $300, had been. raised by debentures to wipe off floating liabilities and for other indispensable imâ€" provements requisite in the capital of the coantry. He had observed by the papers that the Government proposed to"sell Car tier Square in town lots. This he regretted, and he thought some steps should be taken to ;{;titit.ion the Government to preventi‘s being done. He was greatly in favour of small parks or squares as places, of recreation in the heart . of & city. â€"In regard to the Water Commission he was opposed to the Works reverting t2 the Council, as he Mfl“ it could be be beiter managed in the hands of & commission. It was said there was n# means of knowing what they did, but he said the mimutes of these meetings were published with those of the oor&nt.ion. Mr. Barssr here said that the public. never got these minutes. The enquiry then adjourned. _ Mr. Gissox thotght that after the very lucid explanation of Ald.

(hughm-)%‘o wonm that gentieman to explain why he voted for the opening up of Murray street f Mr. Rows denied thathe had supported that measure. s Mr. Joseru, R. Eswoxps next spoke,. He regretted to see Al-l.flon:o&paut of civic affairs.© It was all very to tell the ratepayers to look for minutes or go to the City Hall, but he thought this un ‘ necessary when they elected representaâ€" [ tives 'mh give an account of their ip. He thought those THC MUNICIPAL : CAMPAIGN. Mr Rows coutinuing, said there was some force in the objections raised, yet his private opinion was that a commission was the best. m Mr. Rows said he did not know whether this was so 0« not, but the Commissioners were mgomible for this state of things not the City Council. He referred to the onerous duties devolving on the Finance Committee and Bsard of Works and thought if things were amiss betimes it was owing *o the. fact that Aldermen could not afford to give exclusive atten:â€" tion at the sacrifice of their own private affairs, to the 'g\;l;lic affairs of the city. Reference had n made to assessment and the collection of taxes. He might say that ~steps had being taking towards having _ an _ Assessment Commisâ€" sioner with a view to remedying any defects that might exist, and a scheme of a malgar®ating the offices of tire Treasurer and Collector was nearly matured. _ Mr.Cuurr asked why the public and reporters were excluded from their meetâ€" Mr. Ciuvrr here asked why the Ca?o- ration spent so much money on Eigin street before they were assured of their title to the risht of way, and if a City Alderman did not have an interest in the property. _ f coxgcaisn o. this respect.

Ifelected he wou‘d make this hig pn;lï¬cula.r object. He would like to see civic affairs managed as a man would manage his own business. (Cheers,) . Altar some further remarks from Messrs. Wm. Stewart, A. Holland, and E. C. ber, the meeting adjourned on resolution of Mr. Esmonde, to meet again in some more suitable hall, and with the understanding that the representatives of *the ward .would give a full and explicit statement of civic affairs financially and otherwise. A GuAND CONCERT IN AID OF THE SISTERS OF 1 HE GOOD SHEPHAERD. The work undertaken by the Sisters of the “(‘)Xod Shepherd in this city has, from a hunible beginning, gradually advanced, and has now attained considerable im« â€" This institution, entitled â€"the Order of Ourxdy of Clnrityoflioï¬ag:{l:nd better known in this country as t of the Good Shepherd, was founded in Norâ€" }nmd,y in 1641, b{,ft.ho Rev. Joh&iud:l, or the purpose â€" of reclaiming. eâ€" maleg v;ï¬ohlnd ltr:lyodfm the path of rectitudo. It rapialy spread, being then the only one ;ptbo Church devoted to this kind of charity. It was introduced into the United States by the late Bishop Timon, of Buf#alo, in the year 1855, and into this cit’ in 1866, where it subsisted some time principally by hard labour, until, on the 18th of January, 1871, an influential friend succeeded in obui.ningh:rom the Governâ€" ment a remittance to amount of $480. Still,.the resources of the community lie chiefly in its own "exertions, under Divine Providence. The terms of admission are purely graâ€" S:ibous : the more destitute m%orlom he applicant the stronger her title ; nay, oftentimes everi article of clothing has to be provided at hor very entrance. _, . As soon as a penitent is admitted, her own dress is exchanged for the costume of the asylum, no matter of what qudiz or condition she be. â€" All her trinkets an baudies and every mark of her past life is ukonfromhor;hermmoilolun‘pdnd every possible precaution taken for conâ€" Mm:lt' It is needless to say that lhlz is strictly guarded against or, i auy way communicating with ‘l::‘rngrmor companions. â€"_ _ o £yl y She is, at first, separated for a time from t::e n;;i:; the pezx“t;g for thedp::? pose of stu her di tion, an finding out whog or not there be any impediment to being placed them ; for, should she be l,in & :nm condition, she cannot be introduced, but is sent to another order designed for . the care of such, until after her recovery when she is again taken into the asylum _‘ Whilst under the care of the Sisters, theg.u-e called children and treated as such. They are not only taken care of in health, but in illness they receive the best attention the community can afford, and in case of death a decent burial. There are different classes amongst the penitents,. Their translation from one class to the other depends on their good conduct, and the desire they manifest of perseverance, which desire must be well proved by a certain delay before it is There are now living in the house 31 penitents, 24 Magdalens, and .30.children of preservation. We must not omil stating that these penitents and children ae never, on any account whatever, no matter how perfect their conversation, admitted as members of the community of Sisters. _ _ Nor should it be omitted that any applicant is received with charity, of wbmbv:r religious . denomination she m'.l‘:sefe' words may be quite sufficient to let l.hflqrhku ofb‘.nohm'w'obd- ness, w | in our m{ u-:.ne. 1866, be understood by the , s 7 * The Rer.
