And it shall be the duty of the city council, once in five years, to revise, and, if it be needful, to alter said wards in such manner as to preserve as nearly as may be, an equal number of voters in each ward; provided, however, that the second parish shall always constitute at least one ward, and the third parish shall constitute at least two wards, without any addition of territory to either.
