TUE TWENTY-FOURTH IN MONTRE _ --_ W, - THE ONTARIO REGISTRATION ACT AND THE CLERGY. In . former number we resviesmd 16. some length the Import of the Registrar General d Data-Bo.

However, " we {can that a. 3000 deal of misconception “in: ebroed in reference to the provisions of resist“- tion Art, we purpose giving n synopsis of the obligatory clause- d the Ast, I0 that all clun- of the community may we wut is required of them in this matter. In the Seventh Section ofthe Act it is ' provided thet "every clergyman nutheriz- l ed by law to begun, - or bury, I should keep e registry showing the persons I whom he hes so baptized, married, or who I have M within his cm." In an eighth l Section it is required that the tether of my _ child born in this Produce, or in cue of his death or absence. or the inability of both parents, then the guerdien. or if there I are none. the occupier of the house in ‘hich the birth took plece, or the nurse present It the birth shall, within thirty days, give notice thereof to the Division Registrar. In the eleventh Section it is provided tliet every clergyman authorized by low to celebrete marriages shell be re- quired to report every marriage he cele- brntee to the Division 1Ugiatrar, end sub- sequently that every clergmnn who bar. ies or performs A funeral service, unless he has received e oarrtitieato " tothe death under the hand of the Registrar of the Di. vision to the effect that such death he: been properly registered, shell nuke . re- turn of such sleuth himself to the Registrar of the Division." But in the twelfth Sen. tion it is requied that “the occupier of a. house in which a. death takes place, or some person residing in the house, or pros- ont st the doeth, or having knowledge of it, or the Coroner, shall before the inter- ment of the body hupply to the Registrar the particulars touching the death " re quired by low," end lastly by the fifteenth Section. "every qualified medical practi- tioner who was in sttendence during the last illnees of any person shell, within ten days after having notice of the desth of such person trsnsmit to the Division not _ istrer A eertifiente " to “use of . death," he. Finally it is enacted that all , persons who are thus required to report. i and who refuse or neglect to do so shall be fined not less than one dollar and not , more than twenty dollar, and costs. However, in the matter of the Registra- tion Act, it is difficult to see how any cler- gyman can complain of its interfering in any way with his right: and liberties. The law gives him the right to marry with all the emoluments thereto attached. Ind surely the authority which bestows the of. fieo has the right to say on what condi- tions the othee shall be hold. In the mat- ter of deaths, the clergymen is not requir- ed to report at all. m is simply forbidden to perform the funeral service until the low is complied with, and failing to do ac, I then the law very properly erect: the pen- luts, viz., that he should himself report to the Division registrar. In the one of the medical profusion, the argument has Itill greater force. The State gives the Author- ity to exercise the hauling art, end there- fore it he. the power to "r under what condition: this dull be exercised, end what penalties dull be iMietU for ' ing or neglecting to obey it: authority. We hope that in future on Act of such import- onco to the present and future well being of the people will be more faithfully ob- served and that all alum of the earnmun-1 ity willeandidly endeavour. no they may have the orrtsrtunitr, to any out its pro-l vision. ahead-g bud tir" for wagon- and " natitmd an Mich in Axe contempor- uy. an Sholhmo Fr” Peso, the other day, Middlngh. will at. “a hint ttnd more.” Ir injured In hoop"! rery " Flasher- tho man. of the tin- on his daily my!“ died on 3mm, Int, Ind being . to PM“, .0 that dam my be . “a, member of the Volunteers. was follow“ by In. on». of . - or drowning Immi- the Compuny to Mukdulo on the Mth inst, no. in him-.1.

We confess to being somewhst astonished that en Art, the perfect working of which is so necessary to the future well-being of the community, and which in tho nature of things cannot be worked well unless backed up by the intelligent portion of the people, should be denounced in such strong language by A gentlemen occupy- ly. the position which the reverend gen- l tlornen occupies. It will not be denied jut it is the duty of the State to onset Whatever laws it may consider to be nee- I sun-y for the general happiness or true interests of the people, nor yet thst it is _ beyond its power to require obedience on I the part of all classes of its subjects to _ those laws But it may be answered that the State has no right to require any work ( or time or expense from its subjects with- out proper rennulerstion therefor. How- ever, it cannot be forgotten that in every civilized State individuals are united to- gether for mutual safety and convenience. and that many duties are required by the State, for which the remuneration is, ant can only be, of an indirect kind. For in. stance, vessels carrying emigrants trom: foreign countries are requerod to stay st) quarantine for a longer or shorter time, i causing thereby mere or less less to the owners of the ship. So in the erection of buildings in towns or cities the public good requires that the rights and liberties of the individual shall be put under certain rc- strictions. We Bede; is believing! This is s trite ny- h ing end nnirerssl inits snihstion. People h believe what they see sud all whet they t] "6--fut.. Hitherto along our grove] reed o betwixt this town sud Megherton Steion the universal belief has been that the soil wounded with gravel. Whatever the in. t terior parts of Glenelg, end Artemesie my be, it bu been men remarked -thet the gravel road seems to run through on 31- l most continuous gruelly bed. So much i is this the one, that it ls I wellknown tact thst strangers passing through this section, ONLY by the gravel road route, hsve un us with s decided "td-ist s greet mettMr.-- l unjust prejudice agaimst our soil in , tcrienlturrl point of view. Tixeyhnve seen l gravel so sbnndsnt slang this line of mod that, to them, forming in this quarter has appeared almost an impossibility. How astonished those people must be, when we inform them thst it is all an optical delusio 1 on their part. But if strangers will be utonished It this piece of news, whit will I be the wonder of those who have lived e I lifetime amongst us, and never before dis- covered the error? Gnveli why gavel is so remsrkably scarce along our gravel road now that when our Reeves, sud Depu- ty-Reeves do their onnunl pntching on u. half of the County, there is no grsvel to he ha. The nice "untifie jobs performed on the rend here and there during summer _ are handsomely finished off with delicate _ layers of finely ground sand alternating , with a rich friable loam. Occasionally this ' is variegated with a sot": cozy mud having i s. consistency something like plaster-of- ' Paris when well mixed. Necessity is the . mother of invention. The gravel supply ' having failed, our Reeves with a ssgacity, _ and promptitude worthy of all honour have r experimented on the before-mentioned . mixtures with an mount of success that ' lenves nothing to be desired. The plaster- r of-I‘oris style of road commends itself to _ every one who is industrious, and desirous f of s. job. Gravel wears oat only occasion- _ ally, but the planer--uuliko that of PtuG r in this respeet-disinucrates withdroughl, and snnunlly blows away, or more or less ’1 mysteriously disappears. Thus tho plustori _ is in constant demand, and it is gratifying e to note that the County as represented i a our Council's is abreast of the times. IN' yf might mention one ortwo ports of the re u where these experiments are in fall ope ", if tion,wo might describe inglmvinglangunge il the results of recent applications of te t science of road firing. But we forb r, s we do not want to be charged with fullso e t fhsttery, and the well known modesty of the respected individuals at the head of r , Township Couneil's appeals to us to d - e pense with eulogy. Be it md1ieient to s e that when the whole eomtuunily--nuive , " and stttutgertr-wero labouring, and t " many, many years had lnlmurod under th '. strange optical delusion that gravel abound- .. ed along the line of gravel road referred to, d THEY were the tirst to find oat the grand h mistnke, and provide the remedy.

From the Direetors' report, which was then read by the Secretary. it appeared that the affairs of the Institution were not in a. very prosperous condition, that there had been a considerable falling off in the mem- bership, and that consequently there had been a decrease in the ordinary revenue. The amount reed/ed during the year was $208.60, and 9204.47 expended. leaving a balance in the lands of the Treasurer of 84.18. The library " present eontniued about 1000 volumes, and during the year 2146 Velumen had been given out by the Librarian.
