subject of the selection of gentlemeo to serve on the
Commlesion of the Peace. His Worship and the
other members naturally felt souls umttrage at the
apparent interference of outtiders, but an undue/

any objection to the tiaras gentlemen prop med. and
although it was undoubtedly in their pewee to have
delayed the appointment. the Council, with cammend-
atile discretion, resolved intteati of doing this to have
their quid pro quo, and mot up three gentlemen of
their own s-liention to ciunter.balance those which
certain persons—(those wicked Liberals I some)—
have taken upon themselves to send up.
