of thia place, had a narrow escape from
what might have been e fatal calamity.
He had previously been taking medicine,
and had also some carbolic acid in the

she thought was his medicine, but what
was the acid, and gave it tohim. As soon
as he had taken it the mistake was noticed
and Mrs. Trouse hastily went for &doctor.
In the meantimeebeing thirsty, Mr. Trolls°

otherwise.

The following motion and. amendmenta
were the read ;—
Moved. by Coun. Menzies, see by Coun.
Worthington, that the town hall and inar-
ket building be piaoed with the end front-
ing on, Albert etreet, and about 15 feet
from Spooner'a lane, and. nearly parallel to
it, and that the plans be changed so 48 to
suit that place.
Moved in amendment by Couto Chidley,
rise. by Coun. Tiirubull, that the new town
hall and market building be placed on a
line about midway between Spooner's lane
and Itattenbury street„ and parallel with
the same, with. the front end towards Al-
bert street, and at a distance of about 75
feet from Albert street.
Moved in amendnient by QOM. Steven-
son, 500, by Coun, Worthingteme that the
building be placed, side elevation to the
front, at about SU or ten feet from Albert
street, and at right angles to it, and about
the centre of the front.
Some discussion emend, mainly a repe-
tition of what had previously taken place.
It might be well to state, in explanation of
Vie -Votes, that several of the members who
held to the back as being the best place,
considered nett to Spooner'a lane the se-
cdnd best, thegfore their voting was per-
fectly consistent •

• This,- of Course, is not intended as an
exact description. We believe the build-
ing committee are considering whether it
will be advisable, or otherwise, to erect
the 'minding witlia square front or some-
what bevelled, in 'order to be more he keep-
ing with the shape of the lot •- '
Of ceuree this leca,tion has also 'caused
considerable comment, favorable and the
opposite. It cannot be denied that at the,
'time of the 'noneinations' great stress was
laid on " bringing the building down to
the front," ,but we are 'tinder the impres-
sion that at that time many:imagined the
bot was nearly a, square one.
