BANGOR CITY COUNCIL. I The monthly meeting of the Bangor City Uaansil was held at the Magistrates' Room on day. The following gentlemen oeraposa tin I Council, aud those against whose uam..0 asterisk I 1- is plaoed were present Mayor: "Mr Charles Pieroe. Aidermen: T. C. Lewis, J. Richards, *E. Jones. *R. Gray, "John Evans, Councillors: *D. Cameron, "Hugh Hughes, J. E. Roberts, 'W.A.Bew, "E. O. Frioe, *H. Savage, *Henry Lewis, *W. Jones, "W.E.S. "Vest, Robert HugheB,"Langford Jones, *J. Williams, *E.

Pritchard (town I olerk), Mr John Gill (borough surveyor), Mr Smith I Owen (borough acoonntant), Mr J. Smith {manager of the gas works), and Mr W. Jones (inspeotor of nuisanoes). THE DEADLOCK AT THE PUBLIC LIBRARV. I Councillor. E. O. PEBCS inquired bow long the publio Library bad been olosed to the public f Mr SMITH OWPN I do not think the Library has been olosed; the only,thing is that the books have been oalled in. Councillor E. 0. (PRICE That means that the 'Library is olosed, beesase it is ridiculous to think of a public library without books. How long has it been oloetd ? Mr GiiL I do not know the exact time. Councillor E. O. PBICE I am told it is six months. Mr GILL: Four or five months, I believe. Councillor E. O. PRICK said that at the very time the Library would be most useful to the publio- the winter Mon tha-it was olosed, and had not been available for thepnrposes for whioh it was intended. He considered the action of the General Purposes Committee in permitting this state of affairs was most reprehensible. The fact that new books were required was not a sufficient justification for the entire dosing Of such an important part of a publio institution. Councillor SUVAOK The committee was not aware of this till last month. I do not see mysslf why the Library should be olosed at all-(hear. hear)-for the new books might have been kept over and the Library carried on without them. Counoillor E. O. PRICK Then the offioer in charge did this withont consulting the committee? Counoillor JOHN PRICS explained that at first it was necessary to have the books called in in order that the members of the committee might see in what condition they were; but 110 deubt there had been more delay in this matter than was desirable. The question was not further disoussed. I soon SIWl FOB THE LODOINO-HOOSE KEEPERS Oir I The report of the General Purposes Committee contained the following interesting item:—The Aooountaiit informed the committee that he had written to a large number of places, making fm- I quires as to whether they advertised the town as a resort for visitors. In all oases piotorial advertise- ments or guides were issued, but by private sub- scriptions,not byt he Council,excepting in sue or two instances, when the expenditure jia incurred it the form of a mayor's salary. The Acoonntant farther informed theoommiotee that the charge for ex- hibiting pictorial views at railway stations was a very ootitly prooeedinc-one of the towns enumerated haviug paidiC2GO per annum for space alone. He,how- ever bad- rereivea a letter from Mr Wood stating that if Bangor like Rhyl published photographic views or oolonred prints, and allowed the compaay to in- sert a short note as to their tourist arrangements at the foot, he would exhibit them at the prinoipal stations on the line free of (iharge.-After some dis- cussion, it was proposed by Councillor Richard Davies, seconded by Councillor Riohard Williams, that the accountant be directed to communioate with looal photographers and Messrs Pool ton And Sons, of London, and obtain proposals and terms for six or sevn views of different positions of Bangor and the neighbourhood, and submit the result at the next meeting of the committee. The Council oordially approved of the action of ta ecommittee. THL BKTHESDA COMMISSIONERS AND THE CORPORATION. A letter having been received from the Bethesda Commissioners demanding payment of 25, onder section 23 of the Highways Act,1878,it was resolved, subject to tbe opinion of tbe Town Oerk. that the I demand be not complied with, the COllnml not oon- sidering the traffio extraordinary within the mean- ing of the Act. I AN INSUFFICIENT SUPPLY Or GAS. n A letter having been received from AIr J. A. Davies oomplaining of the insofSoienoy of the supply of gas in the early part of the evening, and the manager having shewn that the main in front of Kenai View was too small for the requirements, it was resolved that the Menai Bridge gas main be oonnected with the Menai-road main at an outlay of about 212. AS INDUCEMENT TO THE INHABITANTS TO BMt« OAS. The Water and Gas Committee reported that at their last meetiug it was proposed by Councillor William Jones, and seconded by Councillor John Williams, that the resolution of the oommittee dated 26th April, 1889, to supply fittings at ooet price be extended to the 25th of March next, the oost price to mean that interest at the rate of 5 per cent. be oharged on the balance remaining uupaid after the first three rnouthe.-ca,ried unani- mously. The Council confirmed the action of the oom- mitt. A CONTRACTOR AT FAULT. I Counoillor SAOKVILLE WEST said the supply of coal for use at the gasworks had been very bad indeed, and they had been compelled to purohase a waggon-load ef coal to go on with. On the motion of Councillor WEST, seoondea by Alderman GRAY, the olerk was instructed to com- municate with the Stafford Coal Company with I referenoe to their failing to supply ooal us per contract. SANCTION TO LOAN. The ACCOUNTANT reported having received 'lroni the Local Government Board their formal M.notion to borrow the sam of fl700 fQr the pnrpoMa of their water undertaking repayable witbi. a period not exceeding thirty ye..r. Counoillor HUGH HUGHES asked how much of tbi- -sum of Z1700 was required for the completion of tbe water works. Mr SHITH OWEN: 91150. Councillor SACKVILLS WZBT It does not follow that, because we borrow this money, we are ?o'aK '0 spend it. Mr OWEN Thia it to avoid the holding of con- tinual inquiries. The money may be spent on Maine. The MAYOR: The words "wttter nndertaking" cannot be oonfiQed to the new intake. It was at the suggestion of the Government Commissioner that we ask for powers to borrow this sum, because itwas being contemplated that a school was to be built on the estate, and that a water main would be repaired. Councillor E. O. PRICK No money will be ex- pended unless the eanction of this Council is ob- tained. Councillor SACKTIULE WHOT It need not neces- sarily be borrowed unless we want it. Councillor CAMERON: We cannot borrow any part of thiq money without the sanction of this Council. If the Council do not wieh the committee to spend any part of the money, it is within their power not to sanction the borrowing. Mr S. Owcm Excuse me; CllOO has already been borrowed, 3150 has already been spent on the new intake. "W solum The ACCOUNTANT reported that be had negotiated I five loans at 3t and 3; per cent., wbioh were ordered to be debited to their respective aocoants.and to the I credit of the mortgages. THE pSOPOSED HOSPITAL FOB INFECTIOUS DISIASXS I IMPORTANT DISCCSFLTOK. The Sanitary and Building Committee, who met on the 23rd of Deoeinber, reported that letters were received from Col. the HOD, W. E. SacWille-West stating that the Right Hen. Lord Peurhynhadoare- fnllv considered the several oites proposed by the committee for the Infections Hospital and consi- dered No. 6 the most eligible, being that beyond'tbe Mount. Tbe prioe asked for this lead was £100 per sere.-It WAS Pf,opcmd bir Councillor H. Hughes, seconded by Councillor E. O. Pnee, and onaoi measly resolved, "That thaobairman, Councillor Laneford Jones, and the surveyor, wait upon Col. the Hon. W. E. Sackville-West, with a view of get- ting a redaction in tbe prioe asked for the Ilud. The Roral Sanitary Authority wrote Itatingthat,in view of the contemplated division of their district, it is inadvisable for them to contribute towardi tbe expense ot erecting a hospital. They desired to know whether the CoaDoit would receive patients sent by other authorities, and if so, the amount per WMk charged for the treatment of eMh -ee. T 0 committee were of opinioG that the latter question could be settled after the completion of thehoBpttM better than at present. Counoillor RICHARD Divits said he had very great respect for the opiniod of the gentlemen on the committee, but be questioned very much the advisability of proceeding with the site mentioned in the report, because he considered it most un- approachable and so unsuitable as to debar it from = useful. He hardly expected that uervons paMenti would content to be taken up there ta a carriage. There were several reasons why this site should not be selected. Councillor Dzv Let's have them all. The MAYOR No doubt the best thing, if you have anything to say, is to say it now. aD011r8aÃ:A DAVtM Mid no doubt the oommiMee bad considered this matter but he thought No. 6 was the least acceptable of all the other sites selected, consequently that was sumoient proof that it was not a very eligible site. Every- thing that would go through the drains woild pass into the main drainage of the town, although be admitted that thev oonld dispase of the matter by other means. But sometimes there was an amount of danger in having an institution like this above a town bat the chief objections he had were the nn- approachability of the site and the aspect. Nervous people would have a special objection to being taken at night to a hospital so situated. He moved That the committee be asked to endeavour to obtain a more eligible site." He admitted that there were difficulties in the way, but he would not like to commit himself to the lite luggelted without making a mild protest against it. Councillor LANGFORD JONES thought Mr Riohard Davies was slightly in error when he said that site No. 6 was the least approved by the committee. He happened to be the only gentleman present who went over all the Bites, and at that time No. 6 was the most approved of. He was ioolined to thick that the system of drainage mentiened by Mr Davies was not one of the most approved. He thought the eyetetn of earth olosetB, when the sawage would be thoroughly disinfeoted, was one generally adopted, so that there weuld be no danger in that way of the contamination of the town system of sewage. The MAYOR: Does anyone second the motion. Alderman EDWARD Jomme moved, and Counoillor HUGH HUGHES seoonded, the adoption of the report bf the oommittee. Councillor WILLIAM JONES said, having adopted the report of the committee as regards these sites, w..s it oompetent for them to go biyond this? The MAYOB said the Council had net passed a resolution to erect a hospital, therefore ho thought tbe discussion premature. Councillor HENRY LEWIS thought this a very important question, and in order to facilitate dis- oussion be would second Mr Davies's motion. He know that no resolution had been passed by the Council that an infections hospital should be built, and it was very poasible tbat, if they conld not; agree upon & site in every way suitable, the Counoil "Voald reconsider the matter and see whether the meney so geuerously offered by the Mayor might; not be devoted to some other object-for instacee.an intermediate school for girls (a laugh). There was no doubt in his mind that this would be a highly inconvenient place tor a hospital bat they had to co" front this fact, that the geo- graphical position of Bangor was suoh that it was very difflonltto obtain a suitable place except where land would fetoh too high a price, or where saoh an institution would be too near dwelling- houses. The committee had inspsotsd five other sites, but he wished to point out that the committee bed not asserted that this site was better than the others. It was Lord Penrbyn who had made the selection, and he daresay Lord Penrhyn would be f open to re-oonsider his suggestion, because he' presumed this was only an expression of his opinion. Councillor DEW was aware that it was quite true that no resolution had btlen paused by the Council, ac the same time a resolution had been passed by that Ceuncil requesting the Sanitary Committee to get hold of facts to put before the Council. Dr. X,. Jones remarked, that a special meeting of the Council was held a few months ago to oonsider the spot upon wbicl2 the hospital should be erected. He was wrong in that. It was the Sanitary Committee that met, and the mayor was asked to attend,whioh be did, and at that meeting there were present the Medical Offioer of Health, Mr Gill, and the Sani- tary Inspeotor. That was the committee that first considered the sites. The MHOIl: That is quite oorreot. Councillor Dzw said, if be remembered aright, disenssion took place with regard to all these places. There were one or two spots pointed out by gentlemen not upon the committee. At that meeting they cams to the con. clusion that although iomt of the positions were preferable to the rftt, that they were all con- sidered by the committee as well adapted to a hospital and instructions were given that Lord Penrhyn or Colonel Westfibonld be communicated with. They virtually said-to Lord Penrhyn, Here you are, my lord, we have selected six spots: which would you prefer our taking?" and Lord 'Penrbyn, through Colonel West, said No. 6." With regard to proeariag a piece of land, he might point out that at, Carnayvon the Corporation had had the greatest difficulty in getting any land at all. It was not the intrinsic value of the -lamd, bat it was the injury suoh a place as an infeotlous hospital might do to future building operations in the immediate vioinity. He asked any gentleman on that Council to point out to him anyone of those six plots which were less likely to become the centre of building operations than No. 6. This was a strong point ih favour of the piece of land named by Lord PenrhyB. With reference to the drainage, the committee had had the matter under consideration. They found -that the cess-pool system (or earth closet) was gene- Tally adopted at this class of hospital; in no case was it recommended that The drainage from the hospital should have any connection whatever with • he main sewer of the town. He thought it would be suicidal to run the drainage of a fever hospital into the main drain; so that Mr Davisn's fears on this score ware knocked on the head. He was told that the number of patients who would have to be taken to the hospital would be small. As to the difficulty of taking patients to the hospital, the gradient was heavy, but ambulance oars could be -10 constructed that tbe patient need soaroely know that he or she was going up a hill at all. So, then, he thought the objection to the diffioulty of approach wa-i knocked on the bead also (laughter and applanse). He did not think the situation with regard to its elevation oould be objected to. On the 9th ofnoverabor last there was a resolution passed by that Counoil authorising the Sanitary Committee to approach Lord Penrhyn and lay before him the plans, and ask his lordship what spot be would prefer, and also to ask him the price. At the last committee meeting the question of price arose, and what they settled to do was to write to Lord Penrhyn and ask him if he oould not reduce the price, also that they might be allowed to have the right ef removing the stone from the adjoining site for the purpose of erecting the institution. Te that letter they bad not yet had a reply. They had had this question before them for a long time, aDd the gentlemen who were able te give them information ought to help all they oould. He was far from finding fault with Mr Daviea for criticising the work of the committee i on the contrary, both he and the committee were very thankful for any suggestions which might tend to benefit the ratepayers in general (beat;, hear). Counoillor JOHN PRies was sorry to say he di,ID,t remember the several sites, Councillor DEW said No. 1 was a spot by Mr i D!jtalf;E;:dab end of ;r:dg ro"d; Nos. 3, 4, and 5 at the top of Hendrewen- rof d Glanadda; No. 6 at the top of Lonpobty. i roÓ¡W::dÊ.; 0. PMCE tån:ftt,tf:were leveral objections to the site. It did eeem inaooes- gihle, bat he thought Councillor Dew had met those objections in a satisfactory manner. There was an advantage in the site being a little Inaccessible and high np, whilst being close to the town. Medical men vould be near their patients. Councillor LANOFORD JONES was also of opinion that Counoillor Dew had met all the objections most ably. The medical men on the committee were deputed to go round and visit these sites. They didn't visit sited number one and two, but the rest theyfdid, and they gave the preferense to number six. They considered it as being convenient to the town, at the same time completely Isolated with a town, water a<pp)y. As had been pointed out, the difficulty of access would be overcome by am. bulances. The MuoIl did not himself raise any objection to the site. He was anxions that the committee should select the best site that they oould get. By Lord Penrhyn's decision they must abide, but at the same time no doubt his lordship would rcoonsider the matter if it was thought necessary. He thought it was a subject worthy of consideration. Councillor Dsm said all they had to do was to try and get the price bwered, and seoure the right to quarry stone for the erection of the hospital. It was now a matter of price between them. Councillor R. DAvigs said be was not sorry he bad called attention to the question. Evidently this was the sixth site selected, and he thought his friends were getting little fond of it. The MAYOa: I think it should be understood that all these are preliminary matvers until yon decide to build a hospital. Conncillor LANOFORD JONES thought the Sanitary Committee passed a resolution to this effect, The MAYOR: I don't think there has been a reso- lution passed by the committee or this Council tbat a hospital for infectious diseases should be ereoted. Counoillor Dsw Whether it was done or not, it was tbe intention to do so. Mr GILL was not aware that any gaoh revolution had been passed. Counoillor R. DLvins Do we- bind ourselves to this 6th site, or can we amend our ways? Councillor DEW I don't know what you mean by amending oar ways. I know Mr Davies daring the election spoke disparagingly of the members of this committee, bat that is no reason why he should apeak in the same strain now. Perhaps he will give us the benefit of his experience, and let us know which spot ho selesto ? Councillor DivuI said he would withdraw his amendment, wberanpen the committee's report was adonted. I BUILDING PLANS. Drawings of a propoeoa attartmomo ww suoya ownpied by Mr H. B. JODes, chemist, and Mr J. Humphreys, grocer, Upper BMgor, w<M submitted. The 8uBT*Toa stated tbat the alteration consisted of bringing forward tbe shop fronts about five feet towards the read, but that before they could do so they (the owners) must have the wntten oonsent of this authority. The consideration was deferred. Drawings of a pair of semi-detaohed villas, pro- posed to be ereoted on the Craigydon Estate, Upper Bangor,Jwere submitted. The SOBVEYOB pointed but that the party wall and come of the chimney baoks were too thin, and that the windows ef some of the rooms in the attic were too saeall. It was resolved thst the drawings be sanctioned subject to the party wall, chimney baoks, and win. dows being made the thickness and size required by the bvelaw*. BUILDING BYE LAWS. The following appeared in be report or ine sani- tary and Building Cemosittee The Town Clerk wrote, in reply to a letter from the Sarveyor, stating that he had perused sections 52 and 53 of the Building Byelawo, and was ef opinion that sec. 52 applies to an existing street where the houses on one lid. are taken down, and that the person erecting a new domestio building upon the site of an old one can be compelled to allow the width of 24 feet or at all events 12 feet, up to the middle of the road but he did not think, however, that see. 53 can apply to a building or to an alteration or addition to a building ereoted previous to the Pub- lie Health Act, 1848, as the section appears to relate to a now building, or to an alteration or »"ition te a new building. If, however, the old building is pulled down and rebailt, then the section will applv.-It was proposej bx Councillor E. 0. Pries, seconded by Councillor W. Jones That, in view of the opinion of the town olerk as to the meaning of seo. 52 of the Building Byelaws, the committee adhere to their previous decision of the 26th August last with respeot to the plans of five cottages proposed to be erected in Club-strect.- On the metisn being put to the meeting, Councillors E. O. Prioe, H. Hughes, and W. Jones voted in favour; Councillor W. A. Dew agaiist; Alderman Edward Jones did not vote. Alderman J. Riohards had left the meeting previously. --Tli o Chairman (Counoillor W. A. Dew) then declared the motion carried.- Ik was unanimously resolved that, having regard to the townolerk's opinion as to the mean- ing of seo. 53 of the Building Byelaws, the com- mittee adhere to their previous resolution respecting the alteration at the rear of the Royal Oak. ADMIIONAL LAMPS. The Sub-oommittee of the Highway and Lighting Committee, appointed to inspeot the position of lamps at Garth and Hirael, recommended that an additional lamp be fixed at Miknai-road, near Cliff Cottage; that the lamp at present fixed near Measre D. Williams and Co.'s chimney be moved to the opposite side of the road; that a lamp be fixed on the hawar-gas aestraotor, and that the position of the lamp on the Beaoh-road he altered so as to equalise the distance between them.—It was proposed by Councillor R. Williams, sec- onded by Councillor H. Hughes, and unani- mously resolved, that the report be adopted, and that the sarveyor he directed to carry the recom- mendations into effect-It was proposed by Coun- cillor H. Hughes,seconded by Councillor R. Hughes, and unanimoBsly resolved, that the surveyor make enquiries respecting the passage known as Gris- i^a Bach and its present condition, and bring up & reort.

Councillor LANOFORD JONES drew attention to the dilapidated condition of Ffriddoedd, which he said was a popular promenade daring the summer montbs. The BoBeuaB SBSVBTWP, said that men were now employed in repairing the road. TM ADMUttMMTMX OF T?B BTB-LAWa AN UNWARRANT- ABLA ATTAC3 UPON COUNCILLOR W19T BY MB WILLUM JONBS.—A 8EBUS OF SCENES. -? CoBBoillos BACXVILLB WBST moved "Taat the several 808mi" be instructed to inquire how far the byelaws with Whioh they are concerned have been administered, and report any cases of the violation of them which they ma-y be able to dis- cover." Colonel West thought it was a very impor- tant question, as it seemed te be the desire of the Counoil that the strict letter of the byelaws should be enforced in the fntnre and disoover what bad been the practice of the Connoil in the past. He felt convinced that with regard to sanitary matters they bad not been enforced in all caees. When they bad the information before them they would be able to better regwate t-beir future aotion. Councillor 011" considered that they were quite ic the dark as to what they should do in regard to the building and sanitary plans. He more especially referred to the houses at Hirael. He always did think that they were not very clear what plans oaght to be received and what ought to be rejected, and the inquiry which Colonel West pro- posed would be a judioions one, and would help the committees to discover how they were to aot in the future. He had great pleaawe in seeondmg the resolution. Councillor JOHN PMdIl: supported the resolution. There seemed to be a deeire to evade the byelaws —from a good motive 110 doubt-but no harni could come of their being made aequainted with how they had transgressed in the past. The MAYOB quite approved of the object of Councillor West's motion, as he thought it was highly desirable that they should come to a olear understanding with regard to their byelaws, and bow they were to understand them. and whether they bad understood them in the past. His opinion was-ara it was aa opinion which .he bud held some time-ihat they had not been properly administered. He hoped the resolution would be passed, and that the committees would report the cases which had been brought before them. Councillor DEW It will give the mmittees an opportunity of retrieving their sonsoienoee (a I&nRb). Connoillor Wcu-MM J?tM said, considering tha quarter from which the motion came, and the occa- sion on which it arose, he dared say the publio would look with snspioion on the matter. Councillor gioxVILLE WzsT: I don't understand what Councillor William Jones means, viz., the quarter from which it comes." I am dealing with this queetion on the general principle. It is one I hav felt strongly on for a long time, and it has no reference to any particular case. 1 really do not know what Councillor William Jones means. The MAYOB I must say I have had thn question of our Byelaws under my observation for some years,and I have been dissatisfied with the way they have been oarrisd out, and I have expressed myself to this effect to Mr Gill on more than one occasion. I wish the resolution passed on public grounds. I have no private motive. Counoillor WZGT I mnat insist on Counoillor William Jones withdrawing the imputation, from the qnarter it comes." Counoillor DEW I as a seconder of Col. Wests motion feel aggrieved. This is not the first time Councillor IVm. Jones has made suggestions of tbie kind, and I beg to call upon him to withdraw the insinuation that he has made, which is quite un- called for. This matter was brought up in the first instance upon the right or wrong doing of the committee, and then at the last meeting of the Council Councillor West said he would mova a resolution ae to the Byelaws generally. Councillor WIIST: It is a most improper thing for any member of the Council to make imputations of this kind. It is a thing I never would do, and I oall npon Councillor William Jones to withdraw what he has said. The MAYOB: I hope that Conncillor Wm, Jones will, on further consideration, see his way to com- ply with the request. I am sorry at the inoident: and do not believe for a moment that there is any reason or ground for it.. Councillor WILLIAM JONES What were the words. Councillor WEOT Considering the quarter from which it oame." Counoillor WILLIAM JOSM Do you seriously ex- pect me to forget. the action that Colonel West took on a recent occasion ? Do ^ou ask me serionsly to kNp from my memory that? Conneillor DEW It bas nothing to do with 1118 memory, but we ask him to withdraw. Councillor WILLIAM Josbs was understood tb yay that he was not going to sit there to be insulted. On several occasions he had been insulted-grogsly insulted-in that Council. Councillor DEW said both Colonel West sod him. gelt felt aggrieved as parsoaal motives in moving the resolution hsd'been impnted to them., The MAYOB I think, COUNCILOR William Jones, as two members of the Council have taken objection to tbe observations you made and feel wilved,that ft would be wiee on your part to with. draw them. I really must say that they were open to meaning or imputing wrong motives without sufficient grounds. I trust you will do so, other wise it will be my duty to say they were un- justified. Counoillor W. Jo-ma 1 ask for the words which I am called upon to withdraw. Councillor West: Considering the quarter from which it comew." Counoillor W. JONES rhen I am called to forget all the surroundings of this queetion. Alderman GBAY Inasmuch as you know that the words hurt the feelings of two Councillors, that's the reason you are oalled upon to withdraw them. The MAYOB I have decided in this case that yon maat withdraw the words. Councillor HINRY LEWIS said this was a very disagreeable question, and re-opened old sores which they had all hoped were healed long ago. He said nothing as to the imputation. It might be just or it might be wrong; he was not competent to judge of the matter, but the question was whether Mr W. Jones was justified in making snch remarks at that juncture. He (Mr Jones) said he was so far as this, that he was insulted. It was a matter of history that he was insulted, and the mover aad seconder of this resolution had not the courage then to condemn the person who did insult him. No Counoillor at tbat table who was present at the time was worthy to bt, oalled a gentleman who did not secretly or otherwise condemn the action of those who threw caltnny upon him. But he asked At Jones whether it was right to return blow for blow, or to show vindictive feeling, especially when Mr Jones was so pare, so outspoken on princi- ples of Christian morality in his -dealings with his fellow-men. Was it right te make imputations of corruption against men en this occasion, merely apparently to irritate, and perpetuate and foster reoolleotions of old sores that ought to have been dead and buried long ago ? He hoped and trusted that Mr William Jones would withdraw his offend. ing words in such a way as became a gentleman in his position, and a Chiistian gentleman. He felt sure that in asking him to withdraw those words be was speaking the views of every member of that Corporation (bear, hear). The MAYoII condemned the contention of Coun- oillor William Jones that because a man was in- sulted he must emulate the example of others. He repeated his previous expression of opinion that Councillor William Jones would withdraw the words nsed unreservedly. Connoillor JOliN PRICII said, as a friend of Coun- oillor William Jones, and as one whe had always aoted with him in most matters, be asked him to withdraw. He thought the words nsed were un- happy, and that Councillor West had no special motive in introducing his resolution. Councillor DEW said on previous occasions he had had to take notice of the remarks made by Councillor Wm. Jones. As long as he had been on the Counoil he had acted without a personal motive, and with a view of representing to the best of hie ability tihoee whom he served. Connoillor WILLIAM JONES: I am sorry, Mr Mayor, that you or any one else did not think that occasion was taken to insult me at a previous meet. ing. I conscientiously made use of the words I em- ployed to-day. I believe them. I spoke what I conscientiously believe. Now, if yon call upon me to withdraw those remarks, you ask me to do a thing I certainly believe to be true. Councillor Jones then referred to the imputation to him of wrong motives on a previous occasion. The MAYOR: NOW, Councillor William Jones, everyone has a right to their own private opinion, but they must no use the!r private opinion to insnlt others. I mast decide that I consider that yon ought to withdraw the words you used. That is my decision, and I am sorry to have to do it but I have a duty to perform here in regulating the administration ef the affairs of the Council, and regardless of any private feeling I will adhere to it. Conncillor WILLIAM JONES If it is your ruling, air, I bow to it as I have done on previous occasions, whether I believe it or not; and on this occasion I bow to yonr ruling, and bag to withdraw the remarks (hear, bear). Connoillor West's motion was then deolared to be carried nnaaimoasly. CLAIK FOR INJURY. Mr J. H. Chesney, of No. 42, Caelleppa, made I a claim of iC5 for injury caused to his child by a I defect in the pavement opposite his house. The ¡ Highway Committee directed the surveyor to write stating that they did not admit any liability in the matter, but that inquiries should be made.—The Surveyor reported that be had written as above directed, and had made enquiries. He found a hole in the pavement immediately opposite the house, and was informed that the child fell and strnok its head against the door step. The father stated that he did not wish to make any profit out of the accident, and that he would be satisfied if the Council would pay the doctor's charges. Mr Chesney wrote on the 26th inst., stating that the injury was more serious than he at first anticipated, and be, therefore, withdrew his previous olaim, and in lien thereof made a olaim of £6 128 6d doctor's charges, and 92 for other expenses.-After fully considering the subject, it was unanimously re- solved, on the motion of Conncillor R. Hughes, seconded by Alderman E. Jones, that as at present advised the oommittee do net entertain the olaim. THOROUGHFARE BETWEEN CAELLEPPA AND LONPOBTY. The SURVEYOR stated that Colonel the Hon. W. E. S. West had written stating that Juord Penrhyn considered the npper route tbe moat eligible, and that his lordship was prepared to give facilities for its construction. The Surveyor further stated that he had seeu Mr T. Pritohard, the owner of some of the property proposed to be acquired, relative to the prioe, but had not yet received hie reply. The matter was deferred. '1-t STREET OBSTRUCTION. The SURVEYOR reported that he had written to I the chief-constable respecting this oomplaint, and a reply had been reeeived stating that it would receive attention. MAIN ROADS. It was resolved unanimously to affix their com- mon seal te the agreement between the Town Ciancil and the Connty Council appointing the Local Government Board to arbitrate on the qrestion of the sum to be paid by the County Council to the Town Council for the maintenance of the main road within the borough. THE APPOINTMENT OF THE SUBORDINATE OFFICIALS OF THE CORPORATION.—THB WATER AND GAS COMMITTEE seORII HEAVILY. Coanoillor WaST, in accordance with notioe given moved That the officials at the head of the various departments be empowered to appoint workmen subject to the approval of the various committees," This, said Colonel West, is a question which has come up in consequence of the decision arrived at at the last special meetine. The Water and Gas Committee found themrelves in & very awkward position 0"i"" to the resolution arrived at. It then appeared that there was not the same system of ?ppointinj!°S'o'?"'? several departments, and it was thonght t,.t there should be uniformity, and this had been broneht forward with a view of getting the qaeation settled by the Connoil. It must be patent to everyone that there was some responsi- bility in each department for the work of that de. partment, and that neither the Council nor the com. mittees could act as managers. They must depute much of the work to the heada of the various de- partments, Now, the head of a department oould uot be responsible for the work being properly done unless he had the power to appoint the instrument which he employed, In all large departments it was ttaaal for the manager to appoint the workmen in hie department. He found that,on reference to 34 othertowns, that in no sint le instance were the workmen appointed by the direct authority, but they were appointed by the managers. At the present moment they didn't know who appointed them, Councillor E. O. PRICK seconded the motion. Councillor JOHN PRICK could not say he tho- roughly agreed with the resolution. There was no doubt that the managers ought to have the power of appointing labourers, &o.; but if there was an appointment sufficiently important to he adver- tised, then he thought that that should come before the committees. He would move the addition of the words" subject to the sanction of the various committees" to the resolution. Councillor WEST imagined that every appoint- ment would come before the committees. Councilor HUGH HUSHES If you pass this reso- lution, what will become of the resolution passed at the previous meeting? Councillor WEST said that this was a very argent matter, because it affected the supplying of gas to the town. If the operations of the Gas Com- mittee continued to be hampered, then they could not appoint a man to the post of gas-fitter to do for the public the work which they bad undertaken. Councillor HENRY LEWIS: The resolution of the last meetmg merely shelves the resolution passed at the previous meeting. » The MAYoa strongly urged the Counoil to pass the resolution. The difficulty of appointing a gas fitter had caused a considerable loss to the ratepayers of Bangor, and be was afraid that the consequent deficiency in the anpply of gas would have to be thrown upon the rates. An undertaking which re- presented a sum of L80,000 was not a thing to he trifled with, and he believed that no diffioulty should be plaoed in the way of the Gas Committee to carry on the gas works. The committee had done their utmost to oarry on the works and maise them self-supporting,and at last they had succeeded. In conjunction with the Finance Committee they had also succeeded in reducing the expenditure on the works by JB500 a year, and they well deserved the Qonfidence of the Council (hear, hear ) Connoillor JOHN PRICE asked whether Councillor West would not consent to allow the resolution to ran thus That the various oommittees, in con- junction with the officials at the head of the various departments, be empowered to employ workmen and artizans in their resneotive departments, ate. As the resolution stood it" seemed to give too much power to the permanent officials. Councillor LANOFORD JONES said there was more in the resolution than appeared on the face of it. It had been brought forward to over-ride the reso- lution passed at the last meeting that the appoint- ment of gas-fitter be deferred tint die (bear, bear). If the committee said that the gas-fitting was at a standstill, he asked why 'hey did not allow the work to be done by contract? He failed to see why this course could not be adopted in the gas depart- ment more than others. All the trouble and griev- ance from whioh it was alleged the Gas Committee suffered was more imaginary than real, for he did net think that the appointment of one foreign gas- fitter would cause the gas undertaking to be a failure, which, rather, ought to be attributed to the large sum paid for the works by tbe Local Board. He would most certainly oppose the resolution, un- less some such words as "provided always that no new office of a permanent nature be created be added. Cou' .mor HMM LEWIS said the oommittee would not abide by the deoMon of the previon: meeting, and they were determined to this resolution forward, and they said distinctly that it was to get them ont of a diffioulty. There appeared to be a great deal of misapprehension on this subject. Some members appeared incapable of seeing the point at issue, and they did not appreoiate the magnitude of the aituation (hear, hear). The Gas Committee had to contend with serioUB difficulties. They had a falling revenue, which was due, no doubt, to some extent, to tbe heavy price paid for the gasworks by the Local Board; and the committee met this in a oourageoua manner by reduoing the price of gas in order to secure more customers. Inquiries upon this subject had been made of several town, and 50 per cent. of those had replied that they did the work themselves, and that the men whom they employed were engaged by the heads of departments. It was ridiculous to talk of letting the work by contract, for the fact was that the ratepayers said that, if the work was to be done, it must be done by the Corporation. Counoillor ROBERT HUGHES remarked that Ccmncillor Henry Lewis was absent from the last two committee meetings, yet to-day what did they find? He posed as the champion of the Water and Gas Committee. He argned that all therequiie- ments of the committee could be met by looal men. They had no idea of tying the hiade of the com- mittee.' All they ii).anded to do was to restrict them to local tradesmen. That was the object of the amendment. He was sure the committee all deserved every credit for their exertions. He moved the insertion of the following words after the resolu- tion, provided always that no new office or appoint- ment of a permanent nature be oreated without the express sanotion of the Council." Councillor HUGH HUGHES seconded the motion. Councillor WEST said this motion nullified the object of his resolution. If these words were added it was & direct negative. Councillor HUGH HUGHES said he had been in business 30 years, and had always employed local gasfitters and had been perfectly satisfied with their work. Councillor HENRY LEWIS They don't do so invar- iably. Complaints are frequent, aud we don't consider we are justified in giving them permanent employment. Councillor DEW expressed surprise at the Council showing so little confidence in the Gas Committee, who had done so much in the interests )f the town. He had perfect confidence in them himself, and should vote for Councillor West's motion. Councillor RICHABD DAVIES said his own experience taught him that gas-fitting could be properly done by the tradesmen of Bangor. The fact that the work was done by Corporation men was not a guarantee that it would be done well; ana ne doubted very much whether it was right for the Council to thrust npon people work done by the Corporation in preference to that done by trades- men. He would object to the resolution, especially as it was proposed after what had been passed at the last meeting, and amounted to a vote of no con- fidence in the Council. (Councillors West and E. O. Price Hear, hear.") Councillor E. O. Pitio-m I should like to know whether it is true that the Corporation thruet their work upon those who take gas. Councillor LANGFORD JONES Mr Smith Owen has been canvassing the town. Councillor E. O. PRICE Yes, canvassing for gas customer. It is preposterous to find fault with us because we are trying to sell our goods. Counoillor Dzw Quite right. Mr SMITH We have never pressed onr work upon any person. We want them to take gas; that's our point. We dor.'t care whether they employ us or anyone el.e. All we want is to use the gas. Councillor LANGFORD JONES While canvassing for gas, didn't you hold out the inducement of having the fittings at cost price, and allege that there were no competent gasfitters in town? Look at the University College look at other institu- tions in the town. Are not these monuments of gasfitting.and they:have beendone by local tradesmen The feeling of the Council was then taken Six voted for the amendment-Messrs Langford Jones, Hugh Savage, Robert Hughes. Hugh Hnghes, Richard Williams, and Richard Davies, and twelve for the original motion,which was declared carried. The Council then adjourned, having sat for nearly four hours.

< Gossip. I The fourth part of Heinrioh vea Treiteebke 8 German History in the Nineteenth Century has been published. The attihor, as lop as Emperor William 1. was living, found it beeommg (Ute Berlin correspondent of the Daily New remarks) only to say -vhat was absolutely necessary about his love iu his youth for the Princess Elizabeth Radziwill. He now adds to the supplement extracts from letters of Prince William, dated the 23rd of June, 1826, in which the Prince, deeply moved, thanks his father with the ruoat noble expressions of filial love for the mild sympathetic manner in which haeametoa decisiou in disfavour of the Princess, whe, according to the opinion of the Ministers, was not of equal birth. Prince Willi&m writes "You have. dear- est father, decided my fate just as I expected, but feared to expect, aa long as a ray et hope remained. Read in my heart in order to find the inexpressible gratitude with which it U fillsd for all the in- numerable proofs of your graciouaness, love, and patience which you have given me in these exciting five years, but above all for yesterday's letter, which made a deep impression upon me. I shall ntver be able to describe what an impression it made, Your fatherly graciousness, love, and lenienoy, your lov- ing sympathy with the fate which has befallen me, the way in which you recalled to me the duties of my position, the acknowledgment of the worthiQeai of the object who owns my affections, the re- membrance of all endeavours which your love for your children caused you to make, in ordei to latttl the wishes of my heart-to find all this in the unes which decide my fate gave my much-loved heart so much comfort ani such indescribable feelisgs of gratitude that it will only be by the most childlike love, and by the whole demeanour of my future life, that 1 shall be able to prove to yon. dearest father, my true feelings. I shall justify your ooniaeuce. I shall pass through this trial by overcoming my deep sorrow, and by showing firmness in bearing what is inevitable. I shall pray for God's halp He never deserted me in such painful moments of my life. lIe will also now not forsake me. Thus I conclude these important lines, it is true, with a bleeding heart, but with a heart, dearest father, which is more than ever attached to you. For your fatherly love has never showed itself greater than in the manner in which yoa decided.. Everybody is talking about the influenza, It is the universal subject of remark, and, 1Iufertueately, it is beginning also to be the subject of nearly universal experience. Everyone has a tale to ten about himself or his neighbour, and nearly every large employer of labour has to record a number of absentees from his staff. A friead of mine to-day told me that eight of his assistants in bis house of business are invalided with the influenza. A working woman I know met me with the taie that her son has had to leave work, and is erdered to bed for a week. Among the poorer clawta t..e complaint is spreading fast. At the Bast Etc of London it is especially severe, and the hospitals are noting a large increase in their out-patients from this cause. Indeed, so marked has been the advance that St. Thomas's Hospital has ieallled it advisable to set aside a special ward for the treat- ment of such patients, more than 80 of wnom applied on Saturday The London correspondent of the Birmt.nji j'm Mail states that a legal gentleman engaged in the O'Shea divorce case has told him that the naare-st approximate guess he can make is tbat the case will come on in about four months from the present." A Grimsbv tradesman sent a prize ieole a- a present to the Prince of Watet. and receiver a letter bating that it is against the rule for his Royal Highness to accept presents, but that this would be kept on condition that a bill for it was sent. This was done, and the ænd8ueoeived a cheque for £ 1, with an intimation that the pnM goose was served at the Royal table. The American plan o £ marrying without set. la- ments and letting both husband and wife retain control of their respective properties is spreading to England. The London correspondent of the Man- chester Guardian hears that there are to be no settlements in connection with the marriage of Lord Clifford to Miss Towneley, although the bride's fortune will in the long run probably amount to a moiety of the great Towneley estates. The Uine of the Belgians has just pardoned a deserter at the request of the latter'* uieee, a little girl named Bessie Keim, aged 13. Basaie wrote Leopold II. to tbia effect" If my ancle were your Majesty and your Majesty my unole, I am aire my uncle would pardon your Majesty." The latest novelty in evening gloves ia to have them embroidered in pale colours, the design be. ginning at the back of the hand and continuing in a spiral round and round the arm to the top et the love. The effect is more fanciful than artistic but the somewhat florid effect suits certain gowns made of rich brocades, or of embroidered silks. It may (says the London correspondent of the Glasgow Herald) interest readers of John Ball and his Island" and other books of the kind, to know that M. Paul Biouet's well-known pseudonym is not a purely fanciful one. When about to publish his first work he was very dubious as to he reception it would encounter, aud as he !>^d a position as French teacher in one of the public schools, he did not wish those in authority over him to be in a position to thrust scathing reviews in his face. His father used to sign himself Max Blouet,' and his mother was the daughter of an Irishman named O'Rell; hence came about the famous conjunction Max O'Rell." It is certainly not generally known that Mr William Gilbert, father of Mr W. S. Gilbert, was himself one of the severest critics of his son's work, and. moreover, that his suggestions were always listened to and respected by the dramatist,who has more than once declared that several of hia happiest afterthoughts were due to his father.

IrHE RUSSIAN INFLUENZA AT OSWESTRY AND LLANFYLLIN. We (Oswestry Advertiser) regret to state that the Russian influenza has made its appearance in the town and neighbourhood of Oswestry. There are a few cases, including one (brought from London) at the residence of a county magistrate. There has been a serioua outbreak of the influenza at Llanfyllin. A lady who resided as governess in the neighbourhood was recovering from the disease, but was attacked with pleurisy, and died. Another patient lay in a neriona condition yesterday, and a considerable number of persons iu the town are affected, in some houses nearly every person being attacked. We may add a medical opinion that there is no risk of a fatal termination (except in the case of very delicate patients) where care is taken to avoid exposure to cold, and proper remedies are applied.
