book on Canada. which has been prepared

great interest to those contemplating maldng

form, a complete history of the Dominion, its
products, climate, imports, exports, cost of
living, wages, and other information useful
to the settler or tourist ; it is also aocompa•
vied with a couple of excellent maps. The
book will no doubt, be of considerable service
and will repay its cost.
Our Legislators.
Pursuant to adjournment this body held
meeting on Monday evening last. His Wor-
ship, the Reeve, in the ohair, and councillors
Bissett and Pickard present; Johns and
Hoskin being absent, the former through
sickness.
Tho minutes of last meeting were read and
approved:'
The Treasurer's halt -yearly report was
read, and oa motion of W. Bissett, ser! by
Jas. Pickard, was passed.
It was resolved that the Reese and Treas-
urer be authorized to borrow $1,000 for 5
months to meet current expenses, such as
for grayelling, repairs, &c.
By-law No. 10, 1886, concerning street -
watering was read the first, second and third
time, and on motion of W. Bissett sec. by
Jas•. Pickard,
was passed. It provides for
the wateringsed
p
ot Main st. from Huron st. to
4ackman's corner, the rate to bo levied
`toeing Bets. per foot, first half ,payable 15th
Ang.i balance, 1st October. This rate is
expected. to cover the full expense.
Acting upon instructions, Mr. Jas. Creech
presented his statement concerning condi-
tion of water -tanks throughout village, and
after reading the same, and reporting all in
good condition, containing from 7i to 9 ft.
ofat
w or, the report on motion of Jas. Pickard,
sec by W. Bissett, was adopted.
Mr. PItlefa stated that a tank on .Huron
st. required levelling and otherwise fixing
np, as well as No. 1 on James st„ in which
the supply of water is inadequate for an
emergency. It was resolved to have these
tanks attended to immediately.
As considerable complaining had been
done of late concerning the rickety state of
the sidewalks, Mr. Bissett thought that some-
thing ought to be done immediately, and
advocated that good pine walks be made.
After some discussion, it was resolved to lay
the matter over until nest meeting when full
board might be present.
The Reeve said that he had received only
one tender for street -watering, being from
My. A. Bissett, and that his offer waa $2.50
per day of ton lions, This was o1Qimed
very e tisfaclory.
The Reeve read a eommunioation t'rnni the
jonior judge of the county of Huron eon•
demising the aeoommodation which Exeter
afforded for holding court, and stated that if
a more satisfactory hall or court room was
not secured he would certainly taste the court
of the 5th division to some other town, and
pall upon our council for expenses incurred.
The matter was debated, but on aecouut of
there not being a full board, it was resolved
to reserve action until neat meeting, when,
in all probability, it will be decided to call a
public meeting and lay the existing state of
affairs before the rate -payers,
The council then adjourned, to meet on
Tuesday next 29th inst., at 7.30 p.m., wnen,
it is hoped the fulhboard will bo present.
