He was Willing for his part to carry up his Mr McColman was not opposed to having a messenger but, fsweliously wnmrkod that he thought they could get one for 8200. Mr Brown urged that n, nwssengpr was necessary to sustain the dignity of the council.

Mr Goedon-The mover can furnish one as well as the couucd. Mr McCohnan opposed Mr Gordon’s amendment. but on motion of Mr Allen it was carried. Messrs Brown and Doyle moved that the roum-nl furnish a messenger boy for the June session. Mr McArthur said Mr Gordon's pro- posal to pay the money over In Dufrerin through the hands of Proton was like a gaelic saying which he quoted which meant that, it was like going to Wiatton by way of Toronm. Mr Watson laid the townships of Pro- tor, and Melaucthon had passed hy-luws with reference to the purrhme and "mimenunce of e road, and this coun- ty had agreed " [my half the cost. Thecost of two bridges was saved to the county by it. Another subject. for disscussion was a notice by Mr Watson to [my 8110 as the county's share of a road deviation on the county line between Proton and Melancthon, payment to he made to the county of Dutterin direct. Mr Gordon opposed this arguing that such action would be evidence that the county had purchased the road deviation and Its nmintetmnce would therefore fall on the county Mr. Shiite agreed with Mr Gordon in this yiow of the matter.

Mr Gordon suggested that a clause he added authorizing the warden to notify the Bruce county council that before any more work this nature is perform- ed the commissioner nearest the locality must he notified. Mr Harness made a, Statement with reference to the work in question which was done while he was away and while Mr. Ptmgle, his fellow- commissioner, was ill and unnhle to look after it. Reference was made by the warden. who was chairman of Roads and Bridges last ye r, to statements made by Bruce commissioners in which they threatened to pur Grey in for as much expense as possible and the report, was amended so as to anticipate such action, after which it was adopted. Quite N discussion resulted over this matter. Mr McArthur reported for committee re treasuver's sure-tries. that the county had two bonds from Me Parker of 850,000 (nu-h and another' band from Mr H Parke-r. Durham, and Mr R McKnight for. $50.00) which were considered ample. The report was adopted.

The trade at the Toronto Cattle Market this morning was better than it has been all week. There was only a light run. " thengh much heavier than yesterday, and the excellent demand resulted in a tstiffen- ine of prices for almost every kind of cat- tle. It was expected that there would be e heavy run of cattle this week. but the storm blocked the roads so much that the arrivals have been quite light, and no the demand for the cattle offered has been keen. There are several vessels in port " pro-ant and the demand is strenethened by the need for cargoes for them. These factors all combined to Btiffen the prices yesterday and to-day they were from Ge, to IN. higher than yesterday. Sheep are the only ones which are not in good de- mand at pronent tor export, though good I-ntchers’ sheep are still wanted. Good veal calves and export lambs are in good demand.
