During that period there has not been 8. night in which the thermo- meter has not fallen many degrees below zero, and only on two days did it riseto ` near freezing point. This intense cold coupled with high winds and continued snow storms. blocking up roads, and obstructing railways, has caused a sus- pcm,ion_ of tmvel, and consequently a stagnation of business. The loss to the Railway Companies has been very. great, and neither the farmer nor the lurnbez-man can make much progress in \Ve-utllel` lit for neither man or beast to be exposed to. Wells and cisterns have alike gone dry, and for weeks, if not ~ monLhs,m\1nyVlamilies have been de- pendent for their supply of water on melted snow. To many mechanics and laborers winter is, at its best, u. trying ' season, but such a winter as this adds . gre:a.tl'y to their diiculties, while it in- creases tenfold the ordinary sufferings of the poor and destitute. St. Valentine even, though a good Tory, has been unable to counteract the preva._' ' tendencies. W76 fear that the cold must have chilled the ardour even of his vomries, in which case our plight is ` pit-ioble indeed.

What in -the world is there in Mr. Laird, or `in in wailing and weeping and in, HcKe'llarit,es ; they mourn am} will not baoomforted, andall for what? Simply because the present Council have not `thought proper to appoint Mr. Laird as inything that Mr. Laird has ever done, `there should be` such an outcry imnde on his behalf '3 Oh ! says one, a `shame to turn out an eicient publio__servant just because he is "a Re- iormer.` What wile Tory partizianship`! 'Whe.t'Grit nonseticevsay we. `On what..- jiesaible ground, in the rst place, has ' the man who has acted as Assessor for -one` year a right to expect, under the ,1 yzresentppystem, that he will be ppointfd to the seine oice for the year following? -`The work occupies him for two or three Izmonths, and it is done with. It in-K terferes` with no other vocation, and '_holding it involvesno sacrice of other `employment. The case is totally differ- " put from that of Town Clerk, or the holderof any oice which takes up all , his time, or "which requires the giving, `up of any other occu-pa_tion. On this ground, therefore, the cas;<;a::1ittei'ly ` fails. .'.Bnt, for the sake of argument, we will that if a namhad proved himself <--thoroughly competent for the duties of *.'Assessor, that would be a valid reason-` 1 `for employing him again, and one which ` ought. to over-n'de any mere political consideration. But this is j use the point .103 which, in the case before us, t`1cre is adibrenoe of opinion. It is just be- ` cause a large party in this town think they have good grounds for objecting to the way in which Mr. Laird has` (10119 - this work, that they olzject to his re- ` Appointment. They believe the , as regards the taxation, the assrzssment 8 partial, and that, politically, it has been med to aid the party now in power, `and to injure their opponents, and it is just because it has been so used, and for no particular regard for Mr._ Laird, that ' such an effort has been made to "retain him in office. His "friends see that :1 large number who have been uI1justly._ _ we will not say fraudulently, kept oil" Ehe voters list, will now appear there,and that a great many anomalies in the assess- ment will be removed, much to the `benet of the ratepayers at large, and this, and nothing else, is` what the row is about. We will let our Grit friends into a secret. To get 9. fairzmd just assessment, not a partizan one, such as `we have been laboring under for a long time, was one of the chief ends in view at the last Municipal Election, and having gained that end we are not going to be bullied, or cajoled out of it from pity to Mr. Laird, or from fear of his friends.

Why ever since Barrie has been ,1 corporation the whole municipal power und patronage has been in the hands of the Reformers. There has never been. Town Clerk appointed except from that party. For years there has not been an Assessor except from that party ; and of every other less important ofiice that party has had more than its .~_:hare. And yet because for once the Coneerva~ tive majority choose, for very good and valid reasons, to make an uppointmrnt from among their own iriends, they are abused by the Reform minority, `as though they had `really been guilty of some agrant piece of injustice! We think, however, that under the circum- stances, our friends in the Council need not fear the result. Their predecessors have not left such a clean record that they can afford to throw dirt, and if, at the end of the year, the present Council are able to show, as we believe they will, that their labors have resulted iii placing the ahirs of the town in a clear and intelligible position, and in putting :1 stop to the downward course in which they have been for some time moving, all this talk about Tory partizanship will not much avail those who utter it. Thanks to the Tory znernhez s, the people now know at any rave something about their financial position, and will be able to judge for themselves whether _or not their trust has been betrayed. 1 .
