What arglimentt the Markets. Committee will present

They cannot say fewer articles; -ca< a smaller amount'

they cannot prove that fewer. people attend the markets ;
they cannot assert that the proCeids or profits of their

Alderman Holme,- at a 'recent Council ineeting,'in
.
advocating, the earlier closing of the .markets, answered
the objection of a- member of the Counitil, Who stated
they hi& tried it before without SucCess, by saying that
they gave in too soon,, and that time was not allowed
the former experiment to show its benefits ; and he
farther honed they would give the present bye-law:time,
so that it might be well tried. Yet the Council are now,
in -operation, asked to go back
before it has been a month
again to the Qld houi. way,- more; the memorial. on
which, the recommendation is founded was framed,
signed, and presented before the bye-law did come into
operation. • I earnestly hope the Council will not for. a
moment seriously entertain -the proposal,--Yonrs
respectfully, ' Z.
