ROAD MAKING.
FOS TIM etltus 1110FAL.
Sia, -Your Fullerton doriespoIJemt has
said so much upon road making that it re-
quires sonic courage to even offer as opin-
ion, but having • wayward veil .1 my
own, and a sort of idea that he is profoundly
ignorant of the soil of our road, I cannot
allow my ideas to stem upon rho subject,
and, therefore, offer the following remark.:
Your Fullerton correspondent woo:.l
make it appear that the Great Huron Weed
is a morass; to .hew him that the contrary
is the fact, 1 can ay, that, with but little
repair, the Huron Road has bees much
travelled upon fair the last fourteen year.,
and generally acknowledged the best un-
planked or unMcAdamized road in• Canaria,
East or West. it has been travelled upon
all seasons of the year, with less difficulty,
or complaint, than any other soil roa.l; and
only known to be really bad, after the at-
tempts of the District to repair it. 1 call
all the repairs made an attempt, for they are
generally commenced too late in the sea -

This, Mr. Editor, dols not lock like John Clark

There were over 200 assembled, and after

i; Meprerson, Esq., seconded by Mr, John
Sherman, appointed John C. W. Daly. E.q-
as Chairman, -and Mr. lobo J. E. Limos,

Mr. Daly thea roes sad -addressed the

Scott of Hamburg, mild Mr. Alex. Iiamil-
ton D.C. of North Eaethope,almo explained.
Mr: Daly then said'hat he hoped the meet-

decidedly.. Mr. William Smith of Downie

(.ouog them were no remorse given for

went ea to explain the po.utos in which
the proposed District of Bruce.i io-a8d
the equivocal nature of the ektelie for it,
when there was the intended District of
Brant alongside of it, and the Diereses of •
portion of Waterloo to Guelph, (three or
four miles) and that the promoters of the
Bryce District should set have mime ss *

such an appendage as a culvert to attempt-
ed, it generally falls short a foot, of. being
the depth of the drain, and ao nerve* as to
be covered with a single timber nsiog six
inches or more above the level of the road,
OW would imagine for the purpose of being
wedged down to prevent water passing,
rbther than that 'of covering a w ater course.
Every wheel that strikes it, tends to drive
it below the projected drain. The ahem
remarks will occur to all who have paid
any attention to our roads. Now to my
ideas of the Mores Road, end the making
of it One of the beet roads in Canada. 10

continue logw.y from the Wilmot 1100 to

of road, cleared of stamps, Ilse., end the

higher in the centre than at the side.; wa-
ter tables won formed frnm s inches to 1

peanoce of the country, and the intercom**
with the neighboonng Dletricts, that NO
