On .Mr. Galt’s moving that the house do resolve itself into committee of supply, Mr. Halton, in a speech of considerable tact and force, moved in amendment " That it be resolved that the renewal of the treaty of Reciprocity with Ithe UnitedStates, is regarded by the people of this Province as an object of the ut- most importance, and in order to secure ‘thht object, as well as to' augment the bride and advance the general prosperity dt‘jthe country, it is expedient that the fiver-lief enlarging the Welland and St, Lawrence Canals should not be postâ€" poned, but should be prosecuted at the «earliest possible period,_ in preference to my other work involving considerable expense.” The alarm ef the Government was at Oncg'evident in their' bellicose attitpdé.

SUBSCRIBE FOR The York Herald, $1,00 a. year, RICHMOND HILL, AUG. 25, 1865 Our synopsis of Parliamentary pro- ceerlings last week was continued up to Wednesday. On Thursday, the Legis- lative Council passed several bills, none deserving of Special notice. Sir N. Belleau, announced that it was not the intention of the government to introduce this session any measure affecting the currency; In the Legislative Assembly, after the introduction of several bills, Mr. J . A. McDonald, iu‘reply to Mr. McGivern, stated the intention of the Government to'nsk leave from Parliament to appoint. I commission to enquire into the various irregularities the Police Force of Upper and Lower Canada. Such a com- mission it seems cannot be appointed unâ€" dei' the existing law," the Police being udder the control of the Municipalities. The seandelous proceedings at the Que- bec and Hamilton investigations, and the almost worthless character of that at Toronto, shows the necessity of taking the affair Out of the'hands of the local tribunals, 'whieht'are, generally either in- capable or corrupt. Nothing but a leatching and fearless enquiry will reâ€" ithepublic confidence! and in perform- ing this the government will merit the thanks of the country. 1n address was moved by Mr. Blan- chet, for a copy of the general Miitia order, calling out the three administra- tive battalions to replace those called out in December, 1864,. It appears that the term of service was to be three months, and most of those who left situations, made arrangements with their substiâ€" tutes accordingly. They were, however, recalled at the end of two months, and were consequently a month without pay or: ernployment. It was alleged that the 'reoall Was a violation of faith on the part of the Government, and that they should make up the losstho men had sustained. i “This certainly was one of the most important motions of the session, and one of the most difficult to deal with. It ndvocated a policy known to be favorably entertained by a majority both of the house and the cabinet, and yet seemed to mlioig 9. want of confidence, though the mover dcuipd putting it. forward with such an intention, (El): 33qu 113mm.

McDonald denounced Mn Bolton’s conduct 'ns'mean and nnp‘arliaJ inentiary, and accused him of attempting a clever dodge to embarrass the goyern- ment, and make political capital. Mr.‘ Gait denied the expediency of the course ‘ proposed, and put forth the plean’of Want of funds. Mr. {Cartier followed up with, a personal! attack, and Mr. Brownifle; fended his own position; ridiculed the motion as a pitiful attempt to seduce the friends of the government from their al- legiance, denied the intention to spend money without the consent of Parliament and ‘ dictatorially declared that every frind of the Ministry must vote against the amendment. . After some further discussion, it was lost on a division of 78 to 20. PUBLIC 1‘1 EETING ! Removal of theâ€"[Isunty Business. The long looked for meeting, on the County Business separation, was held in Van Nostrand’s Hall, on Wednesday" evening. the 30th ult. The subject of removal was freely discussed, and all present felt the necessity of the business of the County being transacted in a more central locality than it is at present. \Ve were pleased to notice that some of the *most prominent men of Aurora, among :whom were Mr. Lepper, Reeve; Dr. :Hilliary and Mr. Ashton, joined heart and hand in the Separation Question, if said separation was from the city of Toronto, and not the division of the county into two distinct counties. We are happy to learn that the enlightened residents of Aurora and surrounding country see the folly of separating the county into two sections. Why the northern part of the county should wish to be separated we cannot see. They at the‘present time grumble at the taxes they have to pay, which we confess are veryuheavy; but, if they were to separate the county and had to erect new county buildings, at an expense of, say $20,000, where would their taxes be then. Instead of having to pay 45-;- c. per head, it would undoubtedly be one fourth more. After the meeting had been called to order, it was“ moved by -Mr. R. Flood, secondediby Mr. Broughton, that ,Mr. A. 0. Lawrence be chairman of the meet- ingâ€"carried. It was then moved by Dr. Hostetter, seconded by Mr. Warren, that Mr. Porter do act as secretary for the evening. After a few remarks had been passed by the chairman, explaining the cause of the present meeting, it was moved and seconded that the report of the committee, appointed at the last pub- lic meeting, be read. Dr. 'Hostetter then read the'following report : Mr. Grumman LXI) Gasman”,â€" The Committee, appointed at the Iast Public Meeting to examine and report on the propriety of removing the County Seat, beg leave to report as followszâ€"That they have taken into consideration all the statis- tics within their reach, and have come to the conclusion that it would be a. great ad- vantage to the Rateâ€"payers of the County, if-the County buildings wer removed to a more central part of the County. Your Committee are also of opinion that (he management of the judiciary affairs of the several Courts would be far less expen- sive if held in a more central place, from the following facts :«First; vthe Courts would be of'far shorter duration, on account of so many cases foreign to the County, the venue of which are now laid in the County courtsY and these, in the ease of removal, would _of course be tried in the City courts. There would be a great saving to those persons who. have tqatnend theCourts as hyphen; they would not be detainned one-third of the time that they are at present? It-w'o‘uld be a saving to the-'Gonnty as the payment of Jurors would be fur leis. Likewise a Sawing HEAD H Consequently, the rate-pafers of the County of York’are taxed more than double per head, compared with the rate- payers in the Counties before mentipned. The commitme feel that there x‘vmn’a" be a great saving in maintaining the County prisoners in '3. more' central part of the County, on account of the cheapness of fuel and provisions. Also the salaries of the officials might be very much reduced, as it would not cost them so much to live in the country as in the city, In case the removal took place, the number of officials would'be reduced, (i. e.) the Jailor would not require somany under ofiicers,- nor the Sheriff reâ€" quire so many Clerks or Bailil’fs. Your Committee would draw your atten- tion to the fact that the County buildings and property in the City of Toronto are worth about $160,000, and if disposed for a sum near their value’the amount would be quite sufiicxent to purchase land and erect the necessaay Buildings, and would then leave a large amount in the hands of the County Treasurer, which, consequently would lessen the taxes that are now enor- mously high. In proot' of-Which we will re- fer you to, the cost of the Buildings now in course of erection in the County of Peel, 3 sum not exceeding $25,000; and to the Counties of Halton and Lambton as to how the incidental expenses ofthis County would be materially reduced. The County of Hul~ ton is composed of seven townships, and has a population of 22,794,â€"-the taxes to be raised for County purposes this year amount to $100207, or 22 cents per head. The County of Lamhton,‘ ‘composed of eleven townships, has a population of 24.016 and raise bytaxation $5,000. or 20 cents per head. The County of York, composed of ten townships, has a population of 59,094, and HAS TO RAISE BY TAXATION, FOR COUNTY PURPOSES THIS YEAR, TWENTY-SIX THOUSAND SIX HUNâ€" IJRED and EIGHTY-THREE DOLLARS and THIRTY-SIX CENTS! or FORTY- FIVE AND"'A HALF CENTS PER to the witnesses, who are often detained {of weeks waiting for the trial to come of..’ The Committee, after taking into consi~ deration the above. facts, deem it their duty- to suggest to this meexiug, the propriety off taking prOper steps to lay before the County Council- â€"the advarktages' tQ bé derived'by canjying out the removal of the County seat to a more‘ central part of the County. ' All of which is most respectfully .submit- ted. ' ‘ - ' (Signed) Afc. LAw‘imxcm, Chairman. J. HOSTETTER, Sec. of Com. The above report we thing is sufficient to convince the most skeptical, thatlthei-‘e' are some underhand transaclioush-whieh should "be at’once looked into, Bin so long as 'the busin_sss of thi§« «cougt‘y is transacied out of it's ' bounds, the [why and wherefor will be hard to get at. Mr. Porter made some stirring remarks about the facts contained in the report. He could not see why York could not can-yon its business (in proportion inhabitants - and, wealth,),_ as: cheap gs-‘j‘ Holton‘ and Lambton. I The» mere "fact"; of the two aforesaid counties only pay- ing'22 e. and'20c.- per head, was sufii- cient to convince any sound thinking man that there was a link loose -in‘the business transactions of this county, when it takes45éc. per head to carry on business matters connected with York. How it was that the largest, and one of the oldest countiesrin. Upper Canada, was not capable of supporting a county town in their midst, but should'take ‘ their business to Toronto, where the in- lhabitants of York have no facilities of gaining any information as to how the affairs of the county stand, puzzled him not little. It would also be an advan- tage to the young men of the countyâ€" they would have a chance of pushing themselves into a higher and more re- sponsible position, and would in tinie be- come valuable men to the community. 9:,» On account of press of matter we are unable to inseft several communications which have been received. They will be attended -to next wepk.

This will be a good chance for speculators. . Resolvedâ€"â€"That the following Gentlemen be appointed to draft a Petition to the County Council of this County, for the pur- pose of having the County Business done in amore central p1ace in the County, and also to obtain and circulate suid petition for the signatures of the ratenayers of this Countvzâ€"Messrs.

Hilliary, of Aurora,.stated that he was glad to' see the present movement, as he considered it would be tothe advantage of the county to tgansâ€" not their business in emote central‘plaoe. He wished to see the county seat remov- ecl from Toronto, and would‘ruse what- ever influence he possessed to procure so desirable an end. As far as he “and his friends were concerned, theyvvwere Willing to leave the choice of the spot to the ratc- payers. Let us get it decided that it shall be. removedfliom' Torontolend then the-Vmajority of the inhkblfiil’ts4‘c‘en ,l‘asay where the county town shall be located. Moved by Dr. J. Hostetter, seconded by Mr. A. Law, and Mr. Lepper, Reeve of Aurora,"drew the attentionof the meeting to one very important item which had been overlook- ed by the committee. “That the sum of ten cent per mile to and from Toronto is charged by the councillors for milage." This is not a large amount but it could be greatly decreased if the Ibueinese ‘of the county was transacted in la more central place, as the councillors from Georgina, and the most northern town- ships, WOuld only have to travel about half the distance. Great credit is due Dr. Hostetter for‘hls perseverance and untiring ‘efi'ortsyto glean all the information-he possibly cOuld to enlighten the gublic as to the expenses and overcharges that the county at present labors under. ' . The following is a. copy of the petition drafted by the committee to be submit- ted to the public for their signatures.

So here we have a conflict of au- thorities, and it is hard to tell who is right. Mr. Lynn’s statement will. have great weight with us in Toronto, 38 he formerly resided in this city, and always here an excellent character for honor and truthfulness. I may add, that‘af'ter all the quarrel is i really about the $300, collected for the sufi‘erers by the Grand Trunk accident. One portion of the German'Society wish that money expend- ed now, while the majority are fully de- termined to keep it in their coffers. S0, between, them, we are favored with. a fight under the guise of charity. lVe must not hastily condemn our Teutonic brethern. Men are like monkeys in some respects, and especially so in imi- tating others ; and the Germans are fol. lowing the example'of‘ the Lancasnire Relief Committee. It will'be remember- ed that near the close of their labors, comething like $500'rem‘ain'e'd inhund. hieods on their gexieral good behavior, a} creditably alike to themselves and their teachers. This fact, and the great a xccess of the late Pic-nic, which it has given use much pleasure to record, Will we hope, bring about a worthy successor, 5.; often as the season returns. TJRMTO CGRRESPONBENCE. We are sadly in need of some one just now to speak truthfully of the Ottawa Germans. We were congratulating our- selves, that we had heard the last of this disgraceful quarrel between the German Lutheran Church and the so _ styled German Benevolent Society. Day after day some new tidings reach us, until we are completely puzzled to know the true condition of these ' people. If the state- ment of the Rev. Mr. Gerudt is true, and from what I have seen of the testi- Imony in his favor, I believe it to ‘be so, then the conduct of" the German Society 'is infernous. ‘ Still there were twogsides to every question, and there seems to he two-sides to- this quarrel. v A' few-days ago ’a”‘letter appeared in the Globe from (From our own Correspondent.) “ Speak of me as I am ; nothing extenuo ate, no; set down aught in malice.” OTHELLO This money was, with the consent of the Lord Mayor of London, invested in de- bentures- and handed over to the St. George’s Society of Toronto, in trial forâ€"God ‘ know: whoâ€"and styled the Phipp’i fundi 'WVhy it should be named after a gentleman that had not done any morethan many others to assist the oper- atives of Lancashire, and What right the St. George's Society, any more than the St. Andrew’s or St. Patrick's Society as all elasses contributed, had to the ‘money, many are at a loss to understand. When money is collected for one purpose and applied to another, it is generally called, in‘ court lingo, collecting money under gentle reader, you can fill up the blank. V Be that as it may, the Lan- ‘eashire fund transactions gave the Ger: mons a precedent, and as a live yankee .would say, “ history repeats itself.” Some few evenings ago, two guardians of the-peace, whose duties require them to pass the silent hours of night among the lanes and alleys of Colborne Street, were startled-from their senses by the appearance of‘ a veritable ghost, leaning against the establishment of R. Walker ‘ I - , 2 5| ,, I ,J, L _c_..._- _.-- , & sons. Thinking it was some midnight marauder, they advanced to seize him, when 10! it vanished into empty air; re- turning to the point from whence they startedtthere’they beheld his ghostshj) as befoi‘e. summoning all their courage, as did Marcellus and Bermuda in the days of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, they again advanced upon it and saluted it thus :â€" “What art thou, that nsurp'st this time . AofAnightL A. but it would not, I presume his ghostship did not carry _a pooket edition of Shaka- pcare, so we are sadly vexed in refer- ence to this ghost. Some think “ This bodes some strange eruption to our state," and thus doth the spirit of the immortal Tnche walk the night, to warn us of our dangers. “ Angels and minisâ€" ters of grace, defend n3." The arrest of H. B. Jenkins, for em- bozling the funds of the Phoenix Bank, New York, to the extent of $300,000, and his subsequent death by his own hand, leads me to make a few remarks on fast young men. Jenkins is but the type of a class which abound in Toronto, and all other large cities. This class of voung men can be seen in Toronto, on King Street, any day between four and six o'clock; they dress in the highest style of fashion, white hot, black coat and peg-tops; around their hats they wear clouds, which is emblematic of the absence of brain; they 'talk a kind of jargon, which is neither English, French or Spanish; the ,weathaw to them is waam, and to be snow the mold is a beam. These gentry have the run of the houses of our first families, because they arevconvenient to flirt and dance with Miss McFlimsy; they keep fast horses and valuable dogs, and generally apethe style and manners of gentlemen;l they will submit to any degredation to be recognised by the (on; they have a perfect contempt for a mechanic, although it would be a puzzle to know theirori‘ ‘gin, and would as soon salute a working iman as a " nigger,” and as they despise ‘all who work. ofcourse they look upon' work as a “bore” Tailors and Shoe- makers were only sent to this world for their especial benefit and convenience, to be cheated at their will and pleasure. As these puppies have salaries ranging from $300 to $800 a year, and spend nearer 32,00“, of course they must either cheat their tailors and shoemakers, or rob their employers. I will do them the justice to say that they will not resort to the latter method, so long as tradesman will consent to keep them in style, but they must and will live. We would naturally suppose that this class would be held in detestation by respect- able men and sensible ladies, That’s just where we err. Men of wealth and inosition encourage them. and the ladies 'doat upon the “ dear ducks.” Now and then a crash comes, as was the case with McKee of Toronto, not long since, a deficiency occurs, and a young “ blo " disappears, but still we do nothing to alter the rotten state of society. When society will learn to snub the parvenu and encourage the worthy as did our grand fathers, we may hope to change for the better; but at present we delight to encourage sham and honor pretension. The puppy with an empty skull, but a good 'coat, is a gentleman, while the young man, whose sterling principles keep him to the honest homespun, rather than run into debt, is voted vulgar. Let plain farmers and honest men, who wish to‘see their sons grow men of honor, keep them from cities, where they will 'learn‘to “live without using their souls ; to substitute etiquette for virtueâ€"deco- rum for purityâ€"manners for morals; to effect a shame for the works of their creator; and expend all their rapture upon the works of their tailors and shoe makers.” Mr. Swinyard, Manager of the G.
