MWHCiPAL COUNCILS.
When we Ent came to Canada, is the year
1402, we remarked to • fried who was giving
us a desetiption of the several ice:itutions of the
Upper Province, that the oistrici Council was
not likely to exist fur any lengthened period,
simply because kite members of it were not allow-
ed illy compensation for their labour and lose of
time The practice of mea *erring the public
gnti*, forme no part of our creed. It is an error
ie every instance where it is adopted ; for, in the
first pluee, if a whole community is not able or
willing to pay fur the transacting of the public
'cosiness, it is unrlasonable to suppose that a
single member oI that community shoot] trans-
act it on his ow expense ; and in the second
place, the man who serves the public for nothing,
has served nobody : there is not one out of every
thooeaad of that great multitude called the pub -
Ge, who is willing to acknowledge the obligation
of the generous public-spirited man. 11 a may

Owls for having been guided to his eooduct by
the dictates of his own conscience ; but he will
meet with few congratulations or expressions of
gralni.le.
In old wealthy countries, where an atistocntic
nobility has nothing to fear but the:want of exer-
cise, and nothing to wish for, but popular dist inc-
tion, it may do well enough to attempt the grati-
fication of this desire by serving the public gra-
ns; bat in Canada, where people, live by labour,
then is something that reminds one of the
Crusaders in the Wee of men leaving their homes
and their forme, and traveling forty or fifty miles
on the most miserable description of roads, and
epe°diog eight or nine days in deliberations for
the public good, without receiving owe sixpence
of the public funds.
Bpi the members of the District Council are
now allowed a compensation for their labour,
and J there is any one tax which the people
should pay wi.h more williagoeae than another
it is the wages of the District Councillors. It
properly managed it is decidedly one of the best
incl: ctiewe which could have been bestowed on
Canada. And we would senrcel7 hesitate to
assert, that, with the powers which•it possesses,
it is calculated to exert a more immediate influ•
once on the general improvement of the country,
than the mon learned and lengthened delibera-
tion@ of the Proviceial Parliament. Canada u •
country of great extent ; it is divided into large
Districts sod large counties, many of the town-
ships, is almost every district, are but thinly
settled, and have consequently bad roads, so that

conized as the proper hour ; bat since there r

ever trifling or unimportant the queens* Mb) be,

Tows Mesztsos Venters Taesasa-A short
but interesting discussion took place is theCoan-
cil on Friday afternoon in coosequeeee of • mo-
tion by Mr. 'McIntyre, Councillor for Fullerton,'
to the affect that the Council should authorize
the removal of the Fullerton Town Meetings to
a more cereal locality. The motion was
grounded on the Act that the pretreat place of
meeting i" situated at the very extremity of the
township and in the immediate vicinity of •
tavern, and that numbers of persons instead of
meting to arrange the business of the t*wnship
came there apparently with no other aim the
that of getting drunk, and of giving tatoyal-ee
to such as were soberlyigen. bltiog it weeeinterest
anted it
and welfare of the pop
objection that Mr. McIntyre bad o immanetws
or petition from his eonetitee0u for the prepaid
cheap, and that hu oblrch was merely to bring
the meetings nearer to hs own regideace. Be ti
so, Mr. McIntyre tide a perfem right bad• n.
g
onward bar motion sad the Cowbell
per-
fect right to par it, because it was Jews by the
map a Fullerton that the place propelled by Mr.
McIntyre was very nearly is the teeter of the
township. Mr. V anegmnnd doubted if .aha
Council bad the power or changing the place of
meeu•g. They were authorized to sopoi*t the
p) at first, but be seemed to doubt their right
to motel their owe set i• this particular respect.
We ere certainly not living coder the laws of the
M -des and Per:Mane. we ere sot limn of say

at the same time do net retain the power of mak-
ing another to repeal it, and on this pe"
