We have examined the public accounts for 1856 and failed to find mention of this or any sum from the Assistant Adjutant General for district No. 5. We sincerely trust that he will Show no hesitation in explaining this matter. as we are desirous of preserving unsullied the "credit 0' the clot/i.” The question is simply this: What has been done with the fines collected f'om one hundred and fifty of the yeomann' of Markham. paid by the convicting Magistrates to the Assistant Adjutant General. as per Schedule ot‘ Returns of Clerk of the Peace for the United Counties of York and Peel, for July. 1856? anm Tp.. 4th Con.
