COUNCIL AMENITIES.

It is so truly Bplendid that one is lost 111 admiration. I would suggest that tho citizens of Timnru single out one or two of the chief actors at those more specially interesting meetings, and recognise them in a '■ way befitting their merits. A purse of ' sovereigns, or a. long holiday might meet the case.—l am, etc., a*. BAmo.™™* """***■
