tho tolls of tb• Markel and f sir., MA to fiddler con-
eider the pearling quartios between Mr. Boa* slid the

it appeared that the Ocommittes had considered it Mex.
pedient to maks any alteratioNat the present time, is the
by. laws and schedules of tolls of the markets and fairs.
—Mr. Hodges moved, and Mr. Donnish seconded, that
the report should be received and entered on the
minotes—Mr. Andrews proposed, as an amendment.
that the report should not be received, and, in the mune
of • long spoon, said It mewed that the Council bad
decided sot to go into Um question, and it was clear to
him that that dmieion was mrlyed at by members before
they came to tho teammates meeting. Hs explained
the oppositiott Una Mr. Galpin mg Mr. Deveinish had
given when he asked the oconinities to cousidet the
voodoo, and said that the latter produced • resolution
to that affect, which, however, he afterwards withdrew.
He (Mr. Andrews) put in • resolution which wan not
@seceded, and be supposed he should find hinmelf as
this motion again in the minority ; but when he was
doing what he considered to be his duty, no amount of
obstacle would deter him from doing what was right.
Alludiag to the report of the committee, he wished to
know Why it was not eipedient to make any alteration
'at the pressed time in the question of the Wits. Hs
said it was • gaud= which had been often mooted and
agitated, and was still agitating th• attention of the
Council, and it was tione it ought to be settled, instead
of arriving at the opinion which the committee had
dose. Cm alluding to a low items on the list of tolls,
hi seid t when they met on public matters, unfortu-
nately thoy could not help inentiouing individual names,
and if be wanted anything to strengthen his argument
that some alteration was ne.esszy in the schedule of
tolls, he had it from two me.bers of the Council.
Mr. (lapin and Mr. Bennett had said that they
were *compelled to pay for every article placed
middle their doors. If he rightly understood, Mr.
°alpha's toll was commuted at so much per week, and
there we plenty of persons in the town who did the
same. If, therefore, the schedule of tolls was sods as to
require commutation, then it was necesian that some
alteration should be made. He thought it was desirable
that this matter should be looked into fairly, quietly,
and dispassionately. Mr. Hodges had drawn Ms atten-
tion to ma or two items in the list, in which the toll
charged for • hand-basket was ld., whilst another
koaket was Bd. Mr. Lock had also called his attention to
one or two other snilteps which required alteration.
Mr. Lock had complained that be was not treating the
committee well in not bringing forward more fads be-
fore them then be did; hut he could not bring more in-
formation from want of documents. After some further
remarks, he said it was most important that the email
should know what Woke they had in their

remarks that that oommittes was to endeavour to ascer-
tain if they could. sot come to some arrangement with

did that in a friendly spirit towarde the Cooing and
Mr. Low, and that the former wore appointed in
that spirit. He (Mr. Look) wont to that committee

having gone through the tells Hein by heal, it was con-

He (the chairmen) trusted that the more solid ad.

afraid that Useny thought wore of its lighter scums
of enjoyment than of the practical benefit they might
