Councillor Horne moved in amendment
hat Councillor Johuson’s resolution stand over for further consideration. The | amendment carried on division. | A letter wae read from Mr. Daniel E. | Redmond stating that during the smali- | pox epidemic his turnicure “had been re- moved and destroyed by the authorities. He had not yet been paid tor the loss thus sustained, and he hoped the Board would give the matter their very serious con- eideration. Laid on the table till next meeting.
The Water Commissioners asked for an issue of debentures amounting to $500 for services and extensions. Kequest com- plied with.
Councillor Nicholson informed the Board that upon learning, from a reliable source, that there were to be no turther prosecn- tions underthe Scott Act, the Finance Committee had instructed the City Clerk to notify the prosecutors thattheir services would not be required after the 31st July, which notice had been served. Notonly had it been decided not toenter any new proeecutions, but old convictions were not to be enforced.
Councillor Horne asked for further in- formation regarding the non-enfurcement ofthe Scott Act and the withdrawal of the old convictions, He wanted to know who did all this?
Councillor Nicholsom said he ascertained that reveral parties convicted of violating the Scott Act had been about the streets two days of last month (which days might be guessed) and upon inquiry he found that the Act was not to be further prosecuted. Under the circumstances he believed the Finance Committee were justified in dismissing the prosecutors. He believed that parties who were seemingly most anxious to enforce the Act were at ihe bottom of its non-enforcement. No councillor had anything to de with calling in the papers. He had nothing to do
miatter, and said he never interfered with the police in the discharge of their duty.
{ The matter of a raft of timber for the {park roadway, costing $630, was then | ventilated at some length.
Councillor Hughes sought to make political capital out of the matter by as- serting that Mayor Dawson instigated the purchace of the timber to “rafv’ bimeelf into the Legislature.
Councillor Nichelscn exploded this little matter, however, by explaining that at the time the raft was ordered the writs
ed him by the Liberal-Conservative party. Councillor Nicuolson explained also that Councillor Hughes, who was a very active Grit, about the time the writs were issued called the street committee together and said it was imperative that the men em- ployed about the roadway should be called off. Ye (Councillor Nicholson) had since been informed that Councillor Hughes’ zeal in this respect was due toa fear on his part that the forty or fifty men em- ployed under Mr. John Nicholson would vote Conservative.
The raft matter was further discussed by Councilors Johnson, Hughes, Horne and others, and & motion that the bill for the rait be paid carried. A motion of Councillor Hugies that the bill lie on the table forthe Recorder’s opinion as to tie liability of the city, was defe sated, only tle mover and seconder appearing for it.
The street committee were authorized to coptinue the work along Victoria Park and the‘grading of the Park roadway at once,

THE SEA.
I Jove it, I love it, Whatever its hue~ Be it dark, be it bright, Be it green, be it blue; In whirlwind or calm, Let it chance as it will, In sunshine or storm, It is dear to me still.
I love it when glassy,
And shadowy and shining, The bark and the oar
On its wave are reclining— When lute-sounds of song
O’er its bosom are stealing— When lightenings are flashing,
When thunders are pealing.
I Jove it when resting In dawn’s misty light, The white sails are cresting The foam-billows height; When, dim in the starlight, It breaks into spray— When broadly and brightly *Tis flashing in day.
But oh! when the green Island shores are at rest, When the last glowing ray Fades away from the west, With silence and moonlight About, and above it, Then, then, most of all, Oh! I love it, I love it!
