Already some eight or ten pro - apostles .-skeins have Goderich in view for a terminus, and the difficulty now is, not where to look fur a scheme, but what will be tate best Touts or routes for God- erich to identify itself with, and aid by influence and bonus. So far as the Woodstock Scheme,.. ria Exeter, i, concerned, there can be no question re,ganlint the duty of Goderich. The delegates from this town at the Ex- eter meeting gave no uncertain sound on the subject, and pledged both influence and money to forward tho scheme. If there be any possibility of bringing in the Woodstock road by Exeter,' Goder- ich will work fur that 'object most ear- nestly. But if the influence of Wood- stock, Exeter, Bayfield and Goderich fail to receive ou-operation at head- quarters, and the directors of the C. V. R. favor the extension from Elora, then Gtderich will not withhold moral and material support from the northern ex- tension. At present the south rn route appears to ba uppermost in the scale, and Woodstock, St. Marys, Exeter and Bayfield can rely upon tiaderich so long as there a a sound plank left in their platform. But although Goderich, as we have stated, favors the southern scheme, that fact does not go to. prove that we are not axions to have communication with our friends to the east -by -north, and we be- lieve that a feasible project cnn be had by connection with the T., G. & B. at Wroxeter, ria Blyth and Brussels. This osd, to our mind, is far more practicable than the Elora branch, and for these reasons : The line' is shorter to Toronto by some twenty miles or more. From Elora to Goderich, by Listowel, is nearly 9J miles, whereas connection with the T., G. & B. at \Vroxeter can be had in- side of 40 miles, -and the lees miles of road to build, the less difficulty will be encountered in construction. The T., G. & 13. at the present time has tigt5,000 a mile less of a bonded debt than the C. V. R. as it now stands ; and is therefore in a better position to extend Mr. Hendvie, the controller of the T.,G. h B., has expressed his intention of extending westward at an early day, if the munici- palities co-operate. The route by the T. G. & B to Goderich would connect with the L., H & B. at Blyth, the W , G. B. at Brussels, with the northern G. etd4arriston,'at Orangeville with a road to Owen Sound, at Mono with the C.V.R., itis miles further on with the Northwestern, the shortest route to Muskoka, and in a few years with•the Cel Leda Pacific, which could be used to advantage duriu6 the winter taunt Ls. We have gireti above n few of the reasons which should prompt our friends in the north-east of the county t.. work for the T., G. & Il. railway. Hitherto we lava taken issue with the line, fear- ing that G. 'i. It. influence might over- take it ; bet we are now in a position to assert that 110 fear need be entertained of the line being absorbed by the G.

'ftleaeeting, which was t., have commenced at Ione o'clock p. un., had been postponed by the local committee until 3 p. in., se as to await the arrival of the delegates from the east by the afternoon train. Accordingly at 3 *'chock the meeting organized, aid prucueuud to business, Mr. F. 0. Rogers ..f Brussels, beiav voted to the chair, and Mr. C. R. Coop- er being appointed secretary. Mr. Rogers, in opening the meeting, s:ud he vire pleased t.. lite solar,;.- and in- fluential a deputationNesent. Theyhad held a}.reli uivany meet ingin Brussels un Monday, of last week, and decided to call this general sleeting to get an expres- sion of opinion from the municipalities along 11.e line of the scheme prupused. At the village meeting • number of routes were proposed, and it was finally decided that, in the interests of Brussel., the line from Elora would be the pre- ferable one. At the present time the C. V. R. terminated at Elora, and Elora was hardly the place for a terminus. The road should be extended, and he hoped the delegates ru,w present would work hard and earnestly to being.it westward to the port of Go'erich. Over 54,000 bushels of wheat, which represented ov- er $84,000 in money had been shipped from Brussels during the past year, and as there woe also other products to ship, proportionately large, the G. W. R. had been found inadequate to the demand made upon their facilities for traffic. A large amount of money had been hot un more than one occJsion, owing to the in- ability to ship in a ruing market. An- other large industry would shortly be added to those already in Arden's, in the shape of salt, and a still further de- mand would thus be made upon the rail- way accummudation. He hoped the day was not far distant when a competitive railroad would pass through Brussels, having Goderich for a terminus, and his earnest desire was that the people of the County -town would lend their aid to this piioject. A bill should be brought in to amend the present obnoxious amend- ment to the Railway Act, as it was al- most impossible to carry a bonus in many of the municipalities under the existing law. He then recd letters from the Reeve of Wellesley and Mr, 'Snider, M. P. P.,of St.. Jacobs, regretting inab- ility to attend the meeting at Brussels, but favoring the scheme from Elora t., Goderich. • Mr. D. McGillicuddy suggested that interest of the farmers and other the credentials of the delegates from the traders, for good 1$arkets were wanted. different municipalities present should Always hue other lines closely, and build up existing centres, and they would not ou much estray. For this reason he favored the proposed road by Stratford, Seaforth and Clinton to Goderich. The value of the road from Elora would con- sist in its becoming, eventually, a Syndi- cate road. The C. V. R., as the C V. R., vias .en its last legs until the presi- dent of the Syndicate -a shrewd busi- ness man -stepped in and saved it, so that the Syndicate could run an .-antero competition with the 6: T.

A least $Ii,000 a mile along the proposed route would have to be gut, and a bond issue of $10,000 a mile would have to be obtained. If they had a strong di rectorate they might that the bonds at fair tigure, but not otherwise. He pu these difficulties before them, for he had had experience in railway matters, and had found out that the sooner the les son was learnt of looking difficulties in the face, the better. Other lines we talking of Goderich-one of thea[ being from Woodstock, by Exeter, to Goderich and another by Seaforth to Goderich. The line to Goderich by Seaforth would in all probability get strong help fpm the latter town. 'the line thus proposed would run parallel with the G. T. R. and be a good road. Listowel, if th r, al from Elora came by it, was prepar ed to give trade and bonus to a consider able extent, but the deputation fron that town was not here to say what they would give. Listowel had railway coin petition nuw, but was not averse t getting in inure, for their lust invest ments had more than paid them. The present year had been an exoeptionall hard year on railways. In some instan cee It had been found that the tars had been used u storehouses fur grain fo long periods. Fully 1,000 cars had bee thus lucked up at Sarnia for weeks, an a dearth of cars at other points had been created.

Mr. Scott, of Listowel, had noticed - that a line was projected from Elora to o Goderich. If such a line assumed detin- - ite shape, Listowel would endeavor to get it to pass through that town. To build 7 a railnwd was a serious undertaking, - without means and without nien of ex- penence to push forward the initiatory ✓ work. Unless the line proposed was n under the control of the Pacitic'Syndi- d c►te it would be of no use endeavoring to build it.

Ne place could have too much railway facility. No municipality gave to a railway ashen* se much that it did not get it• own back, and a little more. If a railway was to be built Lis- towel could offer as touch as any other place, and if the people of Goderich Imine down with a matured scheme the people of Listowel would support it heartily and earnestly. As a place Brows, trade was brought to it and the section around it was influenced: In this respect Listowel stood withthefirstjowns in Canada. Mr. D. D. Campbell, of Listowel, said that there.appeared to be a difficulty in formulating a scheme. No Government cad was now available; the bonuses had to be rained directly from the munici- palities, and to de so the present law must be changed. He thought it, was alinuet un -British to have such a law on the statute -book, and it was necessary to have it so changed that a majority at the pelt 'should reveive the benefit Iof their vote. When the scheme was fully prepared Listowel would be willing to come to the front with the host of them. Heretofore the C. V. R. was knocking at the doors of municipalities, askilog as- sistanoe in extending their line; now things had changed. and we were forced to go to them. If the C. V.
