GextuexEx,â€"Your committee on the Warden‘s Address beg to report that while the expression of gratitude by the warden for this hooor done him by elevating him by common consent to the high position he now fills is matter for congratulation, yet feel it is but a scanty acknowledgement of the consideration due him from this Counâ€" cil‘ remembering his long and earnest laâ€" bors in promoting the best interests of this County by development and by economizâ€" ing when commmendable to do so. And can assure the Warden of the pride and pleasâ€" ure it will afford the Council over whose doâ€" liberation he presides to strengthen his hands in the discharge of the onerous dutâ€" ies that must devolve upon him,. The clause relating to Bridgos on boundâ€" ary lines and the exceptional position of the County in the premises, your Commitâ€" tee, beg to request the attention of the Road and Bridge Committee thereto as well as the statutory enactments bearing thereon. Regarding the representatives in County Councils, there being a bill now before the Ontario Legislature embodying, it is underâ€" stood, much of the contents of the memorâ€" ial forwarded from the Council on the matâ€" ter, your Committce are of the opinion that further representations during the current session might be premature. Mr. Reid, of Collingwood opposed the motion, and thought that if the business of their constituents was neglected they would consider it bad economy. ‘The amendment carried. The question of County valuators is not of secondary importance, but in view of the interests involved, believe the matter can be more inte.iigently disposed of by the Finance Committse, and would therefore decline making any recommendation. Your Committes very respectfully acâ€" knowledge the Warden‘s congratulations on the continued confidence of the electors in the major portion of this Council, and beg to sincerely reciprocate the same. â€" All of which is respectfully submitted. J. J. Minvuctox, Chairman. Moved by Mr. McKechnie, seconded by Mr. Middleton presented the report of the Committeo on the Warden‘s address, as follows: The reference in the Address to the aroâ€" cumulated Sinking Fund awaiting investâ€" ment is matter fraught with importance, and that the Warden‘s anticipation may be fully met would recommend it to the imâ€" mediate and careful consideration of the Finance Committeo. We would further recommend to the earnest attention of the County Property Committee that class of insane persons reâ€" ferred to in the Warden‘s Address in hope that any accomodation or protection to whuich they are entitled under the Statue may be afforded them. Mr. MacRea strongly urged his motion, and moved that as economy was the order of the day, the Council should commence at home to economize. He said that the work of the year could by proper manageâ€" ment be confined to two sessions. In reference to the adjustment of claims between the Township of Melanethon and this Connty your committee beg to recomâ€" mend at this session the appointment of a Committee to attend to the matter. Mr. Middleton, seconded by Mr. Sing, moved That the motion be referred to a Committee composed of the Reeves of Glenelg, Sullivan, Holland, Sarawak, Egâ€" remont, Osprey, St. Vincent and Owen Sound, to report on Friday. Mr. McKechnie seconded by Mr. Mcâ€" Nicol,moved to have the motion printed and laid on the table tor one day: Amandâ€" ment lost. Mr. MacRea, seconded by Mr. Mc Keochâ€" nie, moved to do away with the December sessions, as $800 would be thus saved to the County, giving, however, the Warden the power of calling special sessions. Accounts of E. Todd and D. Creighton. Mr. Middleton resumed the discussion of his motion with reference to School monies, and sard that having found that the Counâ€" ty Treasurer received nothing for handing the money to the Township Treasurer, he wished to withdraw tho motion. Motion withdrawn. A communication from School Inspector Ferguson relating to the School visits in his Department. A statement showing that a settlement had been arranged between this County and Bruce in reference to the separation of Wiarton from this County. ‘The balance found to be due to this County was $400. A letter from the Registrar of North Wellington referring to some monies claimâ€" ed as due to him in reference to the Townâ€" ship of Amaranth. An application from Alfred Frost, Esq., to be appointed High School Trustee in place of Dr. John Barnhart, whos term had expired. _ The Warden read several communicaâ€"| [tions from the County Treasurer, one statâ€" l ing that Government Bonds could not be obtained, but that he had offers from several Building and other Societies at four and four and a half per cent for the County funds now on hand. AnotLer letâ€" ter urging the reconsideration of resolution of previous Council reducing his salary as Treasurer and showing a comparison with! other County muncipalities who paid Treasâ€" | urers more salary for less work. ‘ County Council. (Continued from the Advertiser.) Wednesda_yâ€"E'vening, Jan 27th. Members all present except Mr. McColeâ€" man who was ill at his hotel. C Mr. Kennedy said he thought it was his duty as representing a corporation which imposed market fees, to opposs the passing of a report which sought to take away that power. HMo referred to the great cost to the town for the roads, harbor improve. ments, High School building, from which those in the country derive benefit; and thought that it was only just !.lut the farmâ€" er should aid.the town to the extenut of those market fees. ‘ Mr. McKechnie read report No. 1 of Fiâ€" nance Committae, recommending that & memorial be forwarded to the Lient Goverâ€" nor in Council, praying that the Municipal Act be so amended that all farm produce might be sold or exchanged in any muniâ€" cipality in Ontario free from Market Fees; that the committee could not resommend a grant to the Ontario Rifle Association; that in the settlement between this county, Wiarton and the county of Bruce, as a basis of settlement that the County of Bruce pay $400 to the County of Grey by 1st February next; that in reference to com:aunication of A. M. Ross, recommend that a memorial be sent to Lieut. Governor in Council, praying that County Boards of Selectors of Jurors be dispensed with, and that Jurors be ballotted for direct from lists returned by local selectorsâ€"but the committee could not recommend the lesâ€" sening the number of either grand or petit jurors; also recommending payment of acts. of E. Todd and J. F. Creighton. The amendment was then put and lost, and the report was adopted.

The following Stending Committees were reported by the Special Committee,and apâ€" proved by the Council. Mr. McNicol, That the Treasurer, Warden and Reeve of Proton be appointed on beâ€" half of this Council to arrange a settlement with the County of Dufferin on all matters arising from the separation of the Townâ€" ship of Melanethon and the village of Shelâ€" bourne from this County. Carried. Rev. Mr Morrison read the petition askâ€" ing for the erection of a House of Refuge, and setting forth the reasons why such an institution should be established in the counâ€" ty. The petition also set forth that in other counties where such institutions were established, it was found that aged and infirm persons could be supported for less than one half than when each municipality supported its own poor. Mr. Middleton thought a committee should be appointed, and report at the June session. It was a very importaut question for the welfare of the county. Mr. McKechnie had no objection to amend his motion in that way, but thought the whole Council shoulid consider theinâ€" selves a commitioe to gutuer information on the aniject. Mr, Mvies thought the better way was to allow the petition to lie on the table,and let every member talk over the matter amongst his eonstituents, and come pared what to do at the June session Mr.Spencer said out of 1800 cases whieh had come before him more than 500 were vagrants; and over 100 of these were really never proper persons for the gaol, nearly all being infirm. _ He referred to the case of a prisoner afilicted with spinal disease, who for two or three years had had nothing but a hard bench to rest on during the day who was as innocent of any crime as any person in the room. There were also four males and one female in gaol, through infirmity, who had comâ€" mitted no crime. ‘The cost of maintenance at an House of Refuge would not be as much as now after first cost of building. In the name of Christianity and humanâ€" ity, the Council should do something. Mr. Fish said the Council must see the neâ€" cessity of doing something. The classes sought to be reached were indigents,unable to help themselves; orphans; persons affiictâ€" ed with temporary insanity; infirm and affiicted; and some worse than orphans should be assisted by a Christian public. The aeputation t3 urge the advisability of establishing a House of Refuge and Industâ€" risl Farm in the county was then heard. The deputation consisted of Revds. D. Morrison, A. H. R. Mulholland, J. Somerâ€" ville,C.Fish, A.H. Scott, P. O‘Donohue and Messrs. W. A. Stephens, Geo. Spencer,R. Brough an4.C. Rankin. Mr. Somerville said what was wanted were facts,. Last Christmas a young man had died in gaol. ‘The man was suffering from consumption, ang hbad visited him; and it was a great pity to say he had no where else to goâ€"just to go to prison and take prison fare. Moved by Mr. McKechnie, seconded by Mr. McNichol, That the thanks of this Council are hereby tendered to the depuâ€" tation who have so ably addressed this Council on the important subject of the erection of a House of Refuge: and that the petition be received, and the matter be laid over till June session. The committee appointed to report on adâ€" visability of bolding semiâ€"annual sessions reported that they thought it would be adâ€" visable if buisness could be completed in two sessions; but recommended that the matter stand over till the June session,as the question of representation in County Counâ€" eils would probably come before the Local Legislature. On motion, the report was adopted. Thereport of County Property Committee wasread, recommending payment of a numâ€" ber of accounts. The motion of Mr.MacRae to have semiâ€" annual sessions of Council, laid over from Wednesday, was put and lostâ€"nays 80, yeas 6. Mr. MelIntyre said Osprey was ready to pay every cont; Mr. Murdoch said Egreâ€" mont‘s share would come at onceâ€"it was his fault neglecting to bring it along with him; Mr. Totten said Keppel had reduced its indebtedness considerably last yoar and intended to reduce it $1000 more this year; Mr. MeColeman said Collingwood‘s share would be paid up in a few weeks; Mr. Mcâ€" Kechnie said the amount due from Durham would be paid in a few days; Mr. Kennedy said Owen Sqund had the money on hand, but hoped the town would hbe allowed to retain it for a while to use for needed purâ€" poses. Thd Warden said that the representatives of Keppel deserved the thanks of the Counâ€" cil for their laudable efforts in endeavoring to pay off their large indebteducss. was then read, as follows : Collingwood $1538.50, Egremont $513.22,Keppel $7095.â€" 81, Melancthon $1202.09, Osprey $2617.55, Durham $261.68, Meaford $646.16, Owen Sound $500, Shelburne $150. The followâ€" ing townships had paid in full : Artemesia, Bentinck, Derby, Euphrasia, Glenelg, Holâ€" land, Normanby, Proton, Sarawak, St Vinâ€" cent, Sullivan, Sydenham. The Treasurer congratulated the Council on the County finances being in so healthy a condition. The Treasurer‘s return of indebtedness of municipalities to the county, asked for, _ The Warden read report of Inspector of Schools for east Grey, stating that in Colâ€" lingwood thore were 25 schools and 5 sepâ€" arate departments, making 50 schools in all; in Euphrasia, 19 schools; in St. Vinâ€" cent, 16 schools and 1 separate depariment making 17 schools; and that he had visited the schools and discharged his duty to the best of his ability. Mr. Creasor gave it as his opinion that where a Treasurer was appointed during pleasure, his bonds held good while he was in office. afraxa had sustained a loss on account of Treasurer‘s bonds becorning invalid. Report No. 2 of Finance was then read ;;;oâ€" recommending that the salary of the Counâ€" prope ty Treasurer be increased to $1,400 with other fees; that in reference to the communication carri of G. J. Gale, asking Council to reconsider| j the motion of the Council of 1880 in redu¢â€" | pane, ing his salary, that the Clerke salary be iD | from crensed to $600â€"the decision arrived At| pyop being largly due to the improvedl MARDCF | poyp, in which the Assistant Clerk performs his! quoe, official duties; that $25,000 of sinking fund | g3,4, on Byâ€"Law 174 be invested in debentures ever, maturing in 5 years in Western Canada| ;pp ; Loan & Bavings Co.; and $25,000 in the | pory , London and Canadian Loan Co.â€"but BOt | pog p till the Treasurer should get the assont of | pog the Lieut, Governor. _ The report also reâ€"| p, commended payment of account of Mout |p @, real Telegraph Co. and siz months rent Of | were oifice for Mr. Masson.

Several members spoke of the dissatisfacâ€" tion expressed by many to them since they came in reference to the old Board, and as Dr. Barnhart was a member of that board it would be better to make afchange and apâ€" point Mr. Frost. Mr Fox was sorry the question was tukâ€" ing such a shape. Getting into parties over tnis question was going too far, and if we could quiet the matter, it would be better. There was no reason why Dr. Barnhart should not be reâ€"elected. IHe hoped whoâ€" ever was elected would let these bickerâ€" iugs be subdued. The Report of County Property Commitâ€" tee was received and adopted. Mr. Kennedy moved, seconded by Mr. Malcom, that Byâ€"law No. 290, to appoint a High School Trustee, be filled up with the name of Dr. John Barnhart. Moved in amendment by Mr. Donald, seconded by Mr.Murdoch, That the Byâ€"law be filled up with the name of Alfred Frost, The amendment being put was lost, and the motion for the adoption of the report carried. Mr. Kerr complained that many lands were sold unknown to owners, which had they been published in rural papers, it would have been known, and the lands reâ€" deemed. * Mr. Sing urged that the cost of such adâ€" vertising could not legally be put against the lots, and the county would have to bear the expounse. After a discussion the motion was put and lost. On motion the Council went into comitâ€" tee of the whole to â€"fill up Byâ€"Law 290 and 291. A vete being taken, it stood 17 for Dr. Barnbart, and 16 for Mr. Frost; and the Byâ€"Law was accordingly filled up with the name of Dr. Barnbart. Woodfori on the Friday previous to the third Tasday of each month, was amended by striking out the fees proposed to be put on articles for sail or exchange, after which it was passed. Moved in amendment by Mr. Malcom, seconded by Mr. Kennedy, That the Counâ€" cil go into committee of the whole on the report. The special committee on Treasurer‘s securities, reported that the security turâ€" nished was good and sufficient. On motion the report was adopted. Moved by Mr. Kerr, seconded by Mr. MceColeman, That the Co. Treasurer be inâ€" structed to have all lands liable to be sold for taxes adyertised in the newspaper, in so far as such sale effects sach municipaiâ€" ities, in addition to the advertisement reâ€" quired by the municipal law. A desultory discussion took place on the account of J. Farewell, for publishing adâ€" vertisement of Teachors‘ Examinationsâ€"a a number of members contending that he had published it without a direct order,and therefore it should not be paid. The report was finally passed. Report No. 1 of Education Committee was read, recommending the appointment of Alfred Frost as High School Trustee. Moved by Mr. Cu;npbell. seconded by Mr. Kerr, That the report of Education Committee be received and adopted. Mr. Kennedy was in favor of such an institution if it were made clear that only the deserving poor would receive benefit thereby. The motion was carried. Mr. MacRea read report of Printing Comâ€" mittee recommending that the County Printing be given to J. H. Littleâ€"his beâ€" ing the lowest tender; and that accounts of J. Rutherford and J. Farewell be paid. Mr. Malcolm said such an institution as the petition asked for would in a short time become a selfâ€"supporting one, and he would give it his hearty support. Mr. Kerr said Collingwood paid $400 to $500 a year to indigents, but believed his township would rather pay it than send their poor away from home to an instituâ€" tion. Some would rather die than have to leave their homes.
