GREIVE. A BURLESQUE. To the Editor if the Exeter Times. Among the annals of Ancient Classical History are to be found many instructive as well as interesting legends, myths and historical ,facts ; none moreso, IVO think, than that relating to an ancient Roman village. Whether it be fact or fable we cannot: indisputably affirm. Howbeit, this village, the name of which; was E teren- tfum, was in many respects goodly to look upon and much to be desired as a place of residence. Its Government consisted of a Senate, elected by the people, at the head of which was a Consul, who was as - elated by another of Consular dignity, bat of inferior powers ; to these were added three Tribunes of thepeople, whose special duty it was to look after the plebian inter- est. The Consuls had the privilege of at- tending the "Magnus Senates" or great Council of the land; from this the Tribunes were excluded, It has been ascertained from the pages Of history that this village bad been prim- itively settled by the aborigines, or at least, their immediate descendants, of Britannia, interspersed with a few Cala- doniaus, and the wisdom and steadfastness of these was rather nicely seasoned with a little Hibernian reit. Now from such a population as this, containing so many var- ious, and excellent qualities, one would naturally expect a multitude of sage and eloquent statesmen. In this we ate not disappointed, for on Senatorial nomination days, when the Consuls -elect took their etand on the diminutive Rostra, at one end of the Senate house, which stood in the midst of the Forum, there was heard such eloquent and logical orations, that, had Burke Gladstone, Webster, or any of our later orators, had the pleasure of listening 'to seine of these ancient rhetoricians, the would have considered his own feeble at- tempts, compared with their masterly dis- cotirses, as but the babbling of the peace- ful brook contrasted with a mighty river. Nor do the blustering Tribunes deserve less consideration, of whom, some were equally loquacious on these momentous occasions. Ou these great annual assembly days, or rather nights, the magnanimous statesmen were wont to cater to the plobean tastes iu many and various ways. :they would advocate higher seats of learning, the bringing down of the lightning to illumin- ate the streets, which by the way, had been so dark that even the position of the moon in the sky could scarcely have been discernible, had it not been for the light shed by a few kerosene lamps scattered throughout the -town, the offering of in- ducements to other routes of co,nmeroe,the establishing of waterworks, and many other 911011 boons. Upon hearing such thrilling orations the hearts of the people were wont the greatly rejoice, and be glad, and they would become generally jubilant, while thinking of 'how their hitherto be- nighted town world soon develop into ono of the first intellectual and commercial centres of the laud. But it is e. sad sight to behold how vain were their rejoicings, and illfounded their hopes, for scarcely had the senate beet, duly appointed than were heard the distant rumbling of a corn- ing storm. The stern and irate voice of the Consul was heard as in an echo and was answered by the herculean Tribune in tones unmis- takable, yet as erratic. Then came the fury of the tempest. The cautious Consul though a prudent man in many ways was not altogether blameless. He displayed undue tenacity in upholding his end of the market question, which was then occupy- ing their antique attention. But the ver- bose Tribunes who happened to be at the other end of the question in dispute were not to be put upon by their superiors in office, but fought with the fury of the fam- ous Spartans of old. Thus waged the war until even the modest middlemen were forced into the fray. In this manner that legislative body, from which the people had expected so much, wasted its time, and its talents, in injudicious jangling over unimportant mat- ters, throwing away valuable assets follow- ed by th6"t useless expenditure of money incident thereto, while such measures as would have materially benefited their fel- low citizens, physically, commercially and intellectually, wore not considered for a moment; consequently the rising gener- tions continued to grow up, as their fath- ers bad done before them, in almost total darkness, both of body and mind. Why this thusness? A Maud has sunt us a printed copy of the auditors' report for the municipality of Turtle Mountain, Manitoba, for the year ending February 29th,1802 A few figures from this report may be of interest to our readers here as showing slow municipal matters are conducted in that new district. The total receipts for the year amounted to $23,119. These were made up in part of the following items : Taxes collected, $18,036; statute labor commutation, $000 ; Hotel licenses, $300; Provincial grants, $1,211; money collected on Reed grain notes and interest, $1,534. The disburse- meuts for the year amounted to $22,782, and ,.ere made up in part of the following items; Iudemnity to councillors, 5350 ; printing and stationary, 5483; salaries, 5872; roads and ,bridges, 52.866; schools, 58,621 ; destruction of gophers, 5300 municipal oommissiouor,$3,0?3, The year was closcd with a balance in the treasury of 51,243. The municipality seetns,to have plenty of money, and the authorities are not niggardly in Its expenditure, The as- sets of the municipality amounted to 523,- 022, and the liabilities to $9,505, leaving a surplus of assets over liabilities amounting to $1.3,517. Among the assets we notice the following items : Arrears of taxes, 513,230, and seed grain notes and interest 56,542 Judging from this statement we should say that if all the municipalities in the infant Province are in as good a finan- cial position as this ono, they will compare favorably with the best managed munici- pality in Ontario.

Den Sru,—After hearing the remarks made at a council meeting some few days ago by ono of the councilmen I must say, I was surprised and very agreeably seralds• ed, too, to see that member in his sent at the ',Board meeting last week, because by so doing ho has made a public acknowledge- ment that he was in the wrong and that we have a thorough gentleman in the chair. I would also like the Deputy Reeve to explain his position in the matter of moving the market, for he distinctly stated some few weeks ago that the buildings, fences, etc., should be moved immediately so we should have no further trouble. While a t the last conned meeting he made the remark that the market scales should not have been moved as they wore in their proper plane. Thanking yon for this space. RATEPAYER.
