MUNICIPAL MATTERS.
*0 THE BOTTO&. * ''*' Sir,—«-Seekig tfeat the storm in a teacup lately agitating the municipal waters of our qmetly-disposel little township has blpwn .ovee* and nbbofly r has been killed or wounded, I think it is the duty of the gentlemen wh& so abruptly retired from the last Council meeting, to. climb down and take 'their 'places at the Cotmeiil- table to conserve the interests of the ratepayers, entrusted to their charge. It is <jtiite evident to everjr unbiassed outsider tint these gentlemen — good fellows •every one of them — suiftfred from an acute~ attack "of " swelled head," and fancied they could make our worthy Mayor swallow 'his allotted peck' of dirt in one dose. But the* little Dog- is ftofc built £ha.t way. H& Bag no objection to anything in teason, but -to pile it on to one plate upset hi 3 gagtrqnomical equilibruim ancTin self "defence he had to kiGk against it. v So I hope the very unseemly and petty ,strtiggle for the patronage of a iittle affair not wotth taking notice of has come to an end and that things Will resume their normal state in the Council Chamber, and everybody live happy and comfortable again. — 'I am, eto»j . Bobs.
