ANOTHER RAILWAY if'ANTED. We believe the time has arrived when the question of obtaining another line of railway to Goderich should be taken up in earnest by the ratepayers of our town. Day by day the necessity for a compet- ing line is becoming apparent, and an effort should be made, and made at once to meet the necessity. • Without another railway Goderich cannot progress. The lake trade haa fallen off in Goderich, as it haa in all the other lake ,,arts of Ontario during the past -few years, and the terminus of the G. T. R. branch line at this point does not give us the railway facilities which atowu like Goderich should possess. Last fall an agitation ei some import- ance was started in Cordertch and work- ed its way to St. Man's, where an effort was made to secure connection with the C. V. R. at Woodstock. to run through to Goderich. ()wing to the rumors of amalgamation between the C. V. R. and the 0. W. R., at that time, the scheme was allowed to fall through. The recent fusion of the G. T. R. and G. W. R. once more opens up & prospect for securing the C. V. R.-•r.ad to Gode- rich. Energetic railway workers have the matter under consideration at the other end of the proposed line -at Woodstock and St Marys -and, if our prominent men in Goderich lend their assistance, we see no reason why the achene could not be finally brought to a successful consummation. Now is the time to take the matter in hand. Don't wait to see what to -mor- row will bring forth; do the inceptive work to -day. Another railway is want- ed. and another railway,ahould be had. We would suggest that the Mayor take an early opportunity of calling a public meeting to discuss the question. At the meeting a competent committee ahonld be appointed, and the hands of the 'nen at the other end of theproposed line strengthened. It will be said by some, we have • railway committee already, and why not leave the matter its its hands l Our ans- wer to this is that the present committee have not shown signs of doing anything, and the matter should be attended to at mice. It is imperative that action should be immediately taken in the premises. The outside towns a•id tillages are al- ready moving in regard to the question of bringing another line into this sec- tion. It is high time G.derich put its shoulder to the wheel. THE Seaforth Sant last week had a nice little romance in its editorial crelunLI. It stated in effect that Mr. M. C. Cameron was so afraid of a protest tl.at he was prepared to resign West Huron. and al- ready an arrangement had been made so that Mr. McMillan would " step down and out" from West Huron to "lake room fur Mr. Camerae. The Seri is cor- rect in every particular except the fol- lowing : That Mr. Cameron fears a pro- test ; that he will resig.l in West Huron; and that Mr. McMillan has agreed to vacate his seat in South Huron. Mr. Catneren fought hard to redeem West Huron. He captured the riding against heavy odds, and does not feel disposed to relinquish his seat now merely to gra- tify his opponents.' You know, Mr. Site, the old song says : A Cameron never would yield. SOME of our exchanges complain of the silent manner in which the Canadian press takes our recent"snubbing" by the British Government in the matter of the Irish Resolutions passed in the Canadian House of Commons.. t\'e are of opinion that the so-called "snubbing' does not alter the. propriety and wisdom of the Canadians speaking a word for Ireland and Home Rule. If the imperial au- thorities refuse to listen to our prudent counsel, on an experience of Henle Rule in do widest tense of the term, it is their 10•s Canada can survive a hun- dred such slights. We believe the Ido. minion can give hotter 'deice to. I. land on the Hem* Rule question thaw the mother country can give us .,n Cana- dian affairs. Is is now rsnsored that Mr. Porter is to be the Tory eandi late in South Perth niter Mr. Trow is unseated and dirluali- God.

A mamma of Conservatives was re- cently held in a Clinton woollen trill, in order to glean evidence which could be used against Mr. Cameron in case of an election protest. Among those nummon- ed to attend the meeting was an old gen- tlemen who had been offered a couple of plugs of navy tobacco by a waggish storekeeper if he would vote for the Re- form candidate. The old fellow laughs heartily over the affair, and says that the worst thing about the tobacco bus- iness is that he hasn't got tie two plugs yet, although Cameron is in. No other important ') evidence Wad adduced. These trivial charges, like ttba.'e', will end in smoke.

I suppose he has revolved this delusive thought in his mind until he really sup - poled he had something resembling • sugar plum. He says 1 gave "Conrad" credit for p•issessing goad moral yuall- ties. This is au example of his tianspar. rut ignorartou. 1 said he received credit for possessing good Moral habits iwply- ing that it was duubtful whether he pos- sessed these qualities or not. He mentions aumethimg abut a "Philadelphia Lawyer," but if they t re as thick-headed as the Philsdelplua den- tists we do not expect thecal t., have touch knowledge of English literatur.. 1 must confess it would be extremely difficult. if not utterly impossible t • write an article suitable to the compre- hensive of such an ignoramus as "Citi- zen" has shown himself to be. As ti. "Conrad," I acceta his ap•,htgy, although it is on the style of the school boys, "Please, sir, I didn't mean to," for he says "no harm was intended. ' I freely forgite him for the first part of his epistle, as the youth was greatly utis- taken in the selection of a victim. This is one of the imaginary flights he is accustomed to take. But he has the audacity to say he wrote a "humorous, yet truthful, account of the games.' Well, if the account is humurous, it would really bo a pity to have him other- wise than humorous, when so little pleases him. And because he made one or two true statements he claims the poem to be truthful. If he reads his poetical description carefully he will find that fully two-thirds (of it is' -untrue. But "Cranks" tnink no parson except themselves can tell the truth, and "feels rush in where angels fear to tread," or he would not have made such an asser- tion. Regarding the enlogiuuts of the people, referred to by "Citizen ' and mentioned by "Conrad," I would say that both are far from the niark. "C .n - red's'; nearest lady friends denounced him in the strongest terms, when they read his attempt at poetry. But public opinion is proverbially fickle, and after "Conrad" read the SIGNAL of July 29th he visited some Of, these parties and probably, ;almost certainly) told them his side of the story. After hearing his lamentable tale, they naturally forgave him; and now he vainly hopes they will "peer out the t•` is of their wrath" on me for daring to molest such a hea wen - born poet as "Conrad."

Owing to misrepresentations, one or two persons living outside the Riding have allowed themselves to be badly •' bled," but within the limits of the electoral dis- trict genuine donations have been few and paltry. It can thus be seen that there is very little hope of carrying the protest to a successful issue. One thing is pretty certain : Protest or no protest, the money handed over to the conspira- tars will never nzain find its way into the pockets of the deluded dim J -a. Maritime menet.. In dealing with the Muskoka election case, in which a recount of the ballots was demanded and main, Judge Gowan lexpressed surae very sensible opinions in regard to the marking of ballots. Ob- jection had been taken to over nix hund- red ballots. and the judge showed that in the working of the machinery for the carrying out of an election a great num- ber of agents would necessarily be ert- ploy ed, and' that many id them would probably be of limited education, ,cer- tainly not accustomed to the work, of varied intelligence. and posaihly not without prejudices. It is plain that .without ot decision in revard to the various questions which would naturally arise in reference to the marking of bal- lots could not be expected trorn these agepts. This the Legislature no doubt had in view when it empowered the county judges to make a recount. But the duty of the judge is of a very narrow kind. He Its a there statutory agent, acting within' certain well-defined limit■. Power has not been given to him to deal with the case so as to accomplish com- plete justice or reach the very truth of rhe matter. All that he is empowereil Pi do is to recount the ballots. In deal- ing.with the various ballots objected to by counsel on both sides, the iudge said that if the acts er omissions of deputy returning officers could be held to vit- iate the ballots of the voters, it is pro- bable that n (meat. many elections could be upset en some technicality. An elec- tion 'night be determined nut according tai the intenticns of the voters, but con- trary to their intention, the majority being disfranchised because a sworn public otiicxr had failed to perform his duty in all its details. Mereover, if he were disposed to pervert his office it would to quite in the power of any deputy -returning officer in localities where opinions were pretty equally divided, to mould the result according te his wishes, and then we should have others playing the sante game. thus lead- ing to incalculable ecila A judge may well dec'ine t • punteh a body if voters by disfranchisement for an act or ••ma- pon .4 the deputy returning officer.

The whole tone of both letters is intended to mislead, and convey to the public impressions en- tirely at variance with the feelings en- tertained by the citizens of Dungannon. "Conrad" asserts that there is no trouble in Dungannon, other than that which has been stirred up by "Annabelle." This statement is far from the truth. and is only surpassed in intentional f.tlseh• cad by some of his other state- ments. The only trouble which has existed in this neighborhood during the past six months has been created by the silly productions and false ,tateinente of "Conrad." I am personally acquainted with all` parties concerned, and perhaps know ' Conrad" better than any pother individual in this village. I know that his object in publishing some of his letters meant mischief. He first sub, scribed himself "Conrad," but when he wished to,get some innocent patty into trouble chameleon like he changed his whole literary appearance. and assumed a . no* name. 'chis was particularly noticeable ir. the "Snodgrass" letter, and his poetical account of the games. However he may revere the gentler sex, I know that hishumorous account of the games was intended to stir up a commo- tion among the ladies who took part in the games, damaging t;, the popularity of a supposed rival whom he expected to be looked upon as the writer of the poetry. W,hen "Citizen" says that one and all of the young ladies of Dungan- non condemn "Annabelle,' for her at- tack upon "Conrad," he is simply stat- ing what he knows nothing about. His acquaintance with that class ..f our in- habitants is very Limited indeed, and is likely tri remain so. 1 can assure loth "Citizen" and "C.,nrad," that I have heard a dozen of my lady acquaintances denounce the latter in the strongest terms, and acknowledge "Annabelleas a worthy defender df their cause.

The dispute threatens to resolve itself into a -personal wrangle, and we do not care to lend our columns to anythtng in that line. It is only fair that "Conrad" should have an opportunity of replying to his assailants of this week, and then the matter must drop. The controversy has also brought out the fact that there is considerable latent talent of a literary sort in Dungannon, which, if properly directed, could be exercised with plea- t sure and profit to the possessors; and their friends. --En. ] UP THE LAKES. Kele, of • Trip is Duluth by a ('llal.ala■ To sing the praises of a trip from Clin- ton to Duluth may be a song possessing many good old notes familiar to the ears of some of your readers, but still each new or additional rendering may present a few features fresh and interesting to many. The ground traversed is short, colsrating of but 12 notes, from here to Goderich by the Grand Trunk, where once en board the "Ontario," the harvest of the Beatty line of steamers, the fami- liar sight of land is changed to the plea- sant and refreshing breezes of the noble lakes Huron and Superior. To take up your space with a description of the ex- tent of these lakes would be fully, as their length, breadth and position are well known, or should be, to ever? school boy in our land. The "Ontario is one of a line of three steamers sailing regularly from Sarnia to Duluth, touch- ing first, on their up trip at Goderich, where we were awaiting the arrival of this one on Wednesday morning, which, with its accustomed punctuality, ap- proached the duck at 7 a. m To at- tempt to describe the many surprises, in the way of attention to travellers from first to last, would require it larger praisewotthy vocabulary than is at the disposal of the writer, but that which made the most lasting impression, be- cause it continued from our approach tee the wharf until we arrived on the return trip home, was the desire on the part of all connected with the steamer, for the care and proper disposal of all psseen- gen, and to give this its full justice the one word, complete, must suffice for the present. After being comfortably •tow- ed away in the Ontario with no care or dread ..f • lrggage smasher in our mind, the first eights of leaving land and ap- praching Lake Huron, took up our at tentton, and to one not femthar with such a scene, there is a novelty about it not easily described. The motion of the steamer ()ntsrio is easy and the progress through and over the water so quiet that the sense of tray.Hing is difficult to be- lieve, and it is only by the receding shore that this feeling is more fully un- derstood. The first town we approach- ed was Kincardine, where we arrived at eleven airs., • distance of thirty-five. smiles, whose quite a few passengers joined our already large party of excur- sionista. Proceeding further northward about the same distance, we touched next at S uthemptoon, where our num- bers were still more largely augmented by t•onrista and others A Targe quanti• ly of freight, including some homes which were being taken to the North West, were here taken nn board. We now sail out into the lake, learing be- hind us the western shotes of the Pre - rine. r.f 1 ntarbn. towards and past the liauu•ouliu lrlandr, vwbr Bing a steady nth ..1 twtuty•four hours without touch - Ind teed. This fermi the meet tuteraist- iug .rrtion of the jour►iey, for now we really become axqu.uuted the one with the other. The usual amusements were i ••lulged in to our heart's content, ech oma• briulfult and running over with f n, and lieu' ou not only enjoying the • elvv but n ding others in Hieing happy. Miwy an iniereatiug and humorous inci- dent could be recounted, but as they would o sly leugtheti tilos article teyond the geed -natured indutgeuee 11 an edi- tor. 1 will pais them by at present and t'. w;.rdly smile over them. The hes. 'moot touched after Qataitg the Mani- toulin Islands, which It, to the north ot us as we sail along, is Kitten Landtily, oil :it. Joseph's island. Here "rails wore exehan4ed, no pisienders either gettiuv rff er "n. Wu then spike the River l•:auble, a very narrow, ruzky cheevet, presenting a scenery that utast be ,ee• l to be appreciated in iu its wdd- ues., if plain bade"' rucks cm lie called much, some of them reaching e. alm•st • perpendicular height of two hundte1 feet, a few hal tt g email scrubby t.u,usrae and spruoe on theta. This chasmic! is being deepened by the goveruweut, 'she have fourteen dredge-. now at word( there, removing the l...wo rock and roil. Wit uuw strike duelers River, a sta.oth, beautiful river, varying iu width from half a mile to two miles, which winds its way in a circuitous course from our Sault Pi the other. Both sides of (la- den River are inhabited by Indians and half-breeds, who, as each steamer passes their settlement, treat the passengers to seme of their native songs to :heir na- tive tongue, the sound coming over the water with a cadence agreeable ti, the ear, but possessing a weirdness that can only cone from the aboriginies of any country. Hunting and fishing were the occupations that filled the rest of their time. These Indians were apparently stout, active, able-batied men. Having passel through the windings and enjoy- ed the scenery of Garden Rive:, we then touched the Sault Landing, exchanged mails, transferred quite& nuttier id pas- sengers, freight, nese., took in a supply of vegetables and o.her necessaries, and then proceeded almost directly across. the river to the town of Smit Ste Marie, a place of considerable importance and really the prettiest spot in the whole route. Here Goal was the only thing taken in. We then, after half an hour's stoppage, struck the Sault Canal, c•m- structed by the Americans, which is nr t completed, having two locks capable of raising or lowering a steamer eighteen feet within twenty minutes. A short run through this cansl• Minya us into Lake Superior; here we again lose sight of land, for a distance if &b,ut 250 miles, until we reach Silver Island, on which a shaft is sunk now ti. • depth of over 800 feet, and front which very little ore is being taken at present, although the operators look forward to a much better yield. The steamer passes be- tween the mainland and this island, et - changed mails, thence proceeded Tl miles westward to Prince Arthur's Land- ing, a small, but nice little place, and the terminus of the Canada Pacific Rail- way. This is a vrezt fishing point, speckled trout being the principal taken, some of which weigh from two to seven pounds. While s1teakmg here ..f fish I must say there is as much differ- ence between those we hail to eat en board the steamer and what we buy in inland towns, as there is between cheese and chalk. Leaving Arthur a Landing, we approach the ter mirtation ..f our journey, a sail of nearly 200 utiles, and we arrived at Duluth where we could find no accommodation for travellers, and were agreeably c.•mpet;e•l t•r ri tuaits during our stay of 24 hours on board the Ontario. Desiring to see this town and its surroundings, we appnaached a hack- man, -and looking on hien very compla- cently, told hien our wish and asked his terms- We heard hint, looked at each .ether, and then wanted to see the falls, for upon hearing his price we coucluded we had arrived at Niagara, instead ..f Duluth, or that wield the Niagara Falls hackmen had got dost and found himself here, his natural instinct for taking in and entertaining angels unawares still clinginv to him,and thinking we had net heard hint aright, repeated our question, and he repeated his unswer ..f '•two 11o1 - Ian; an hour," and not very lone nun, either, we found out. \Ve had enough in this time, and returned to the 'teeni- er, satisfying ourselves with watching the usual hurry and bustle of loading and unloading the vessel, for the re- mainder of the time at our disposal. 1 Here the Ontario left 10 of her cabin and 40 steerage passengers, all of whom took train, which was then awaiting them, for Winnipeg and points west. After the crew had worked all Saturday night and Sunday, unlading and taking on passengers and freight, which were awaiting the return of the steamer, we cimmenced our return trip, touching at the sante points, and enjoying the same varied scenery, passingthn,ugh incidents on board as amusing and interesting as going, we neared home. Your readers may think, from not mentioning the officers of this steamer earlier, that they formed only only a secndary or minur part of our trip, hut my desire to give them the praise and mention they ought to have, for their incessant care and' anxiety for the comfort and welfare of their passengers, in all departments of the boat, has been left to the present portion of this article, simply because 1 feel incompetent to deal with it in words to compare with their kind thoughts for us, and kinder actions t..wards us No one seemed to be favored mere than another. A question asked any of the officers, not only elicited a civil reply, but an explanation acc,mpanying it, that could not help causing admiration of them, on your part, and their gentle- manly qualities ar.d fitness for their re- lative petitions.
