A Club.

Ix our last issue we published a letter from J\lr Woodham upon the advisability of forming a club in Fox ton. We believe such is not only possible but practical, if it is formed hi the right way. We would at once object to any title so as to suggest any class distinction, and we would have it freed from any outside assistance or patronage. The want of some mutual meeting place in some central position is much needed, and by those who feel the want, it should he supplied. The club need bo no expensive affair, all that is needed is a room. ;i little furniture, a caretaker, and an intcrc-ic taken in it by its members. A very small subscription, and a small enhance fee would float the proposal, mid we believe the conveniences would be so apparent that it would soon develope into something larger and more useful. "Whatever is done must be done by the voluntary act of the members, and must be on tlie lines of true independence 1 . Started thus, many would join who would otherwise have nothing to do with it, and we can see a bright future for such an institution, which we earnestly would like to see started and prosper.
