The motion was carried on the casting vote of the Mayor. ELECTION. The Town Clerk reported that an elec tion of Councillors would take place on the Bth September.

Tenders are to be called by next meet ing for the Council’s advertising and printing for the ensuing twelve months. THE DOMAIN. Councillor Bruce found fault with the culvert on the east side of the Domain. The south abutment of the arch was almost in the middle of the water-way, and the work itself was a regular “ botch.” It looked as if laid out by a one-eyed man. Councillor Sherratt thought this matter should go to the Domain Board, to which His Worship replied that this was a matter of opinion. Councillor Delaney thought no blame attached to the ranger. Councillor Bruce was sharp at general meetings, but it would be more to the purpose if he, being a member of the board, visited the Domain, and saw that the culvert was put down properly at first. Councillor Hill said that the culvert was put in to meet the exigencies of the creek, and that if any blame was due, it attached to the board. They should not come there and blame the ranger when it was not his fault.
