Mr. McKfcbnie tbougl.t tbat if each Reeve would furuistj such a statement f payments for chanty, there would be a basis ou which to form an esti- mate moro likely to be satiafactorj than any they had before. Mr. Elyth thought that these state- ment* wonlcj not form a fair bfisia for «atimatt because cgany recipij^nts of charity only receive help now and then, wbUe the chanties of a House of Industry would l»€ a permanent ex- Mr. Frost hoped the resolution would pa-s, and read extiacts from nport of coQiuittees of previ »U8 County C.-uncils. sliowiup that the-e c .miuitteeB lo..ked with so .e fav-m MU the idea, hut that any such estab- lishment as this county w.u!d need should be mucii lfs« cosTy than esti mates considered by tiiose cummitte* s. The motion was then put and lost. McColman, Cameron â€"Tbat the clause of the report of committee de- fining the duties of county valuators. (..f the June session) be rescinded â€" carried. The motion was made simply to obviate the restriction in regard to time of concluding the labors of the valuatois. The whole matters ot county vahiatum, was in tiie lornj ol a By law which had passed its first and second readings in June last. The council then went into com- mittee of the whole on the By law- Mr. Chisbolru in the chair ;â€" when a dead b'ck resulted as to the effect of rescinding tiie repo. t above mention- ed, which formed the baais of tbe pre- amble of tbe By-law, The Bv law was accordingly pro nounced dead by advise of the County Solicitor, and tbe committee rose. MaRae, McGirrâ€" the County So- licitor was instructed to draft a By- law for the appointment of coumy valuators. A By-law was accordingly introduced, and read a first and sec- o'jf' time. Mr. McGregor, Reeve of Proton. resented a petition for the establish raent of a monthly fair in tbe villa-:e of Hopevilie. On motion a By-law wa? passed es- tablishing such fair, THURSDAY E\'ENING. that the salary SSu. cbi^f cou«Uble for tne ^oun.y. be raised to $160.

' By-law No 835 was read to amend By-laws eatahli^iiug faiis at Waller's Falls, Markdalo, Meaford and Hol- st-:n. 111 reference to certain lir- na- tions respecting auction sales, horse racing. c. By law 313 to appoint county valu- ators was taken up in committee of the whole Clause 1 to nominate valuators, was opposed by Messrs. AIcRae and Totten, on the -roimd that no three men could equalize our assessment better than the Reeves and Deputy Reeves themselves, Mr Mc(^olman declared that the on llie clause of the rep •li last nigut. menumg auVxtra $50 t â-  Mr. Mih« as j (Jhief Constable, snowed that it was canied with Old, M.s is. McHae and McGirr uissentiug. By-law 314 was read a third time ana passed. The Couuiy Solicitor gave his opin- ion on the disputed point as to wije;li- er the Council could lej-ally appoint sop.e ot its own mem hers as County Valuators, to the effect that it w-.ud not he legal to appoint td m while they remained members, but that he thought they might resign their mein- ber.-.h'p before" the By law iiiouid take eff. ct. He pjiuteu out as a ce.taimy legal course that tlie By law might be fided out wiih the names of the ge..- tiemeu now, it they thought fit, and leave the thiid reading ami final pass- ing of the By-law till the June session an'd meantime tlie gentlemen appoint- ed could resign. Council went again into committee of the whole on the By-law to appoint County Valuatorsâ€" Mr. Frost in tne chair. Mr. Stark moved tliat Messrs. Myles. Murdoch and Hugh Reid be Countv Valuators. Moved in amendment by Mr. Reid, seconded by Mr. IvicGirr, that the names be voted on separately. D. Cbristoe who had been absent j during yes. e dAy's sessions, rose to Oppose strongly the appc)intmeiit of I members of the (bounty Council, on tlie ground that the spirit of law would prohibit the Council fr-m even nami ig a member for the position, and taking the initiatory steps lo a])- point bin. County Valuator. He furth- er thought it would be the best plan to have the whole matter to the Fi nance Committee. He planted out that if the Valuators took 300 days, that wouhl only leave fifteen days to examine each municipality. Mr. Blyth SU] ported Mr. Murdoch for tbe position, because he belieyed him to be the best man for it, sayiiig tbat good men were scarce. i'he amendment to appoint the Val- uators separately was carried.

Mr McRae thougut it fair enough to appoint ueiuhers oi this Council as valuators â€" he felt quite easy in leav- iT g his own constituency to their valu- ation. Mr. Mciiityre did not care to be Valuator, hut wanted the matter re- ferred to the Finance Committee. Mr. McKechnie thought that the council was satisfied with the equal ization made eight years ago bat the mistake of that equalizaUon was tliat DO account was taken of the greater value of certain townships hy reason of the large villages they con- tained, and also that no proper ac- count was taken of the personal pro- perty in the villages â€" hence the need of another equalization. Mr. EUiort asked to bo definitely informed as to the Solicitor's opinion. He was strongly iu favour of Valua- tors, but waM against appointing members of this Council. Mr. Bowes had been in favour of Finance Committee doing the work, but after hearing his opinions he was decidedly in favor of appointing Valua- tors. He a!so was opposed to appoin- ting members ol the Council to the position. Mr. McBae suggested that the mat- ter he Settled by the members from each riding nominating one man they had confidence in. Clark. Bowes â€" That there be three Valuators appointed, and that they be appointed separately. The mover detailed the unsatisfactory result of the attempt of the Finance Commit- tee to settle the matter last June. Mr. McGirr pointed out the desira- bility of having among the valuators some man who thoroughly under- stands the value of town property ab well as farming land. The committee rose without decid- ins the matter, and it was nnderstood that the County Solicitor be question- ed again as to lejrality of appointing members of this Council as Valuators. TIME TABLE. Clianse ot Time. On and after Monday, Nov. 20th, 1882, trains will run as follows toil, hy Messrs. Clark and Totten; Mr. R Myles hy Me'^srs. Stark and Hew- gih; Mr. Hugh Reid by Messrs. Mc- Colman and McGirr; Mr. A. M. Ste phens by Messrs. Cbisholm and Mil ler. Mr. Jas. Murdoch was elected as first Valuator; Mr. Robt. Myles as second; Mr. Hugh Reid as third valu- ator, m lerirs of the By-law. The committee arose and reported progress, and the Council adjourned till 3 p. m. FBID.\T AFTERNOON. Mr. HewgiU presented report of Educational Committee recommend- ing that Import of School Inspector for South Grey be printed; and also recommending payment of Examiners for attendance at examinations. Some discussion took place on the first clause of the report, Messrs. Cameron, Mclntyre, anu Elliott being of the opinion that the particulars of the Inspector's yisits to the different schools were not of sufficient import- ance to warrant the expense of print- ing; â€" while Mr. Blvth thought the report should be printed, as it was very convenient to refer to at annual meetings. It was finally decided to print the Inspector's communication, omitting the detailed account of his vi,sits; and tlie report was passed as amended. Mr. Cameron presented report of Eoad and Bridge Committee, stating that in reference to a claim of Wm. Jackson for keeping up fences on a road allowance in Gleuelg, the com- mittee could make no recommenda- tion, as tiioy had neither facts nor estimates to go upon. Report adopt- ed. On motion, the T^reasurer's state- ment, showing balance due by muni- cipalities, and also the amounts to the credit of the municipalities down to the kt«;st date; also the Auditor's re- port for 1882, were ordered to be printed with the, minutes of January session i)r.
