Perth asd Bruce,ust pre.lous :o m' has
ing .to attend the last meeting of the Coon

of addrr.sug you on the subject.
The first reedieg satie6ed me that you
had fatted t• establish sour proposition,
"(bat the him tbroegb Guelph and Strat
ford is is a more eertais petition of bear
e pembly comstrucI d, at the least cost to
your United Counties, and that therefore it
ho. a preferable claim le your .upport; and
further, than by Weeding your support to
it now. you adopt th• most, effectual tpetns
of.nablwg yen to recur. a Railroad ren
mpniest:oi aloe with Itamiltne mad B,ff'.lo."
To e.tabtrsh this pronerttina vee say--
" Now the object of the Directors of the
Toronto sod Guelph road was to devise

which they should bung tote the market, es

This is the substance of the evidence
brought forward to prove your proposition.

Directors of the Guelph aril Toronto line
may have been ,uccesslul; but it is quote
another matter as regards ohm extension.

ELECTION OF TOWNCOUNCIL-
. LORIS.
'file Mayor has at length issued the Writ
for a new election of Coeucillors for St.
I'atrtek's Ward. Mr. James Bissett is
returning officer, and the election is to take
place on Saturday next at 11 o'clock, A.
M., at the Colborne Inn. As there are
but few totes in dais Ward, we suppose
the election bas been delayed esti! the ar-
rival of some of the Tory voters who have
been absent for some time past, and the
Public business has been thus procrastina-
ted merely to suit party requirements. -
Surely, never any set of men ever con-
cocted
oo-cocted or endeavoured to carry out so
miserable a set views, by pleasures so un-
popular, as the Tory Councillor. of Gode-
rich--their sole objects during the past ten
menthe appear to have been studiously to
avoid doing anything for the advantage of
their own constituent., and to preventas
much as possible the advaaremeot of the
public btsincu by others who were more
faithful to their trust. And yet these gen-
tlemen have been returned by the electors
to watch over and advance their interest%
- and will no doubt, have hardihood enough
to thrust forward their creatures for the
suffrages of our Townsmen in the present
instance. We would desire of those
who have hitherto in Ivreafaith supported
ibis party to ask th.ma.lves what confi-
dence they can sow place in the proteath-
tans of the representatives of a party
wbirh ha• always deceived them 1 --bre
