Hm CountY 0* The Municipal Amendment Act of 1904 provides for the changing of the ' law regarding county councils so that the Reeves of the local townships and villages and the mayors of the towns. : may compose the county councils in- stead of the members as now elected 2 from county council divisions. The :County of Grey is divided into eight e divisions. having two members for 1: each, or sixteen members in all. The l l l Municipal Amendment Act provides " In case the councils of a majority of the local municipalities within a l countv by resolution tobe passed and ‘ filed with the county clerk on or be ‘ fore the first‘ day of October, in any year preceeding a year in which a ‘ general election of county councillor.= would take place under this act. shall so require. the county council shal' submit to the vote of the municipal ‘electors of such county a hy-law de claring that thereafter the council of ‘ such county shall he composed of the \reeves of townships and villages. and. '-| the mayors of towns not separated ‘ I ‘ from the county instead of represent latives oi the county council divisions ' l constituted under this municipal act”. 3 Apparently a majority of the local ' municipalities comprising the County 1 of Grey are satisfied with the county \council as at present, as seven only flout of the twenty-four local munici- lpalities have passed the required '3 , resolution. The municipal councils "which have passed the resolution asking for the change, and copies nf - ' which have been forwarded to the | ivcounty clerk, are the townships of Over ‘E Elllllluvs vvv... -_ -.,V . any.

W..â€" the railway between Liverpool and Manchester was celebrated. The Duke of Wellington's ideas concerning the iron road are thus described by Chap- lain Gleig: “The Duke of Wellington was invited in his capacity of prime minister to take part in the opening journey. He declined, saying that no great or permanent good could come of the invention, because stagecoaches al- ready traveled at the rate of eight or ten miles in the hour and it any at- ,L __‘_ tempt were made to exceed that pace the respiration of the passengers would become painful, perhaps impossible. The duke would listen to no remon- strances. He thought, as others did, that the experiment was risky and de- rided the idea of accelerating the pace, as was promised, to twenty miles an hour. Even a twelve mile pace he re- garded as excessive, because diflicult, it not impossible, to control and agreed in the opinion that the iron way would never, for general traffic, supersede our macadamized roads, then brought to perfection.” St. Andrew Under-butt. In Leadenhall street, London, there is a church bearing the strange name of St. Andrew Undershaft, a name that would not be intelligible to any one without a knowledge of the history of the locality. It seems that some 400 years ago every May day a high shaft or pole was set up opposite the south door of St. Andrew’s and adorned with the locality. It seems that some 400 ‘ years ago every May day a high shaft ' or pole was set up opposite the south door of St. Andrew's and adorned with flowers. So tail was the pole it was actually higher than the church steeple, which was therefore literally under the Ihaft. Now, there being several churches dedicated to St. Andrew, this [one was further described as Under- shaft to prevent it from being mis- taken for any of the others. The old May pole having been denounced as an idol by an overzealous curate in the reign of the boy king, the inhabitants of the district sawed it in pieces for firewood. Thus is it that in the name of a still existing church is preserved an interesting bit of bygone history which otherwise would probably have passed away forever.
