TO GODRRICH. ' ' t wuul - . n. e. W. P. rear"""" ; Oct.l)4th, and was large!) attended. The oil chamber VII btottolay .veuiughe chair was occupied by Mayor Horton, who said the fact t4 such a large turueut of the residents showed conclusively that the quostiou of the prosperity of Goderich ,Mss of inter - eat to silt The object of the meeting was not generally known. It had been worsted up by a gentleman who was not here v. -night. For himself, he believed that every resident was in favor of hav- ing the Ooderich foundry oontinued,and he believed the best method to adopt would be to organise aoint stook com- pany, with stares placed at $60 or $100, so that almost ev(..y one would be afford- ed an oppportunity of helping the new enterprise. In Bernie this plan had been adopted!, sod that town had gireli small bo..:uses betides to an impletnent factory, a stove factory, and a wotdleu factory, with good results, he was in• formed. It would be ter the meeting to determine what course should be pur- sued in the interest of Goderich. Some- thing was wanted to infuse new life into the town. It was quite possible that, in the not distant future, a branch of the C. P. R., and a line of Syndicate boots would be induced to come to Ooderich, and we should be in a position to offer them a good local trade when that dry looted came. Darin; the past year the Gude . to the mtietisg that he was in rich foundry had done a good business. favor of having the foundry continued 100 reapers had been manufactured, gnu fa Go>dench.t rsl"!.'�► " =1113"e7.11 93 had been sold, which was n good per- C. Seeger then drew attention to the tentage. It • at Ick company was form- ed with a capital of $2215,000, and a tbor- oq;lt business management, there was no reason why a successful trade could not be eatab:ished. (Hear, hear). Moved by C. Seager, seconded by J. H. Colborne, that this meeting believes it would be in the interest of the town of Guderich to organize a joint stock com- pany fur the purpose of carrying on the foundry business in Godertoh on a larger scale than that which has heretofore ex- isted ; and we pledge ourselves to aid and assist the same, it sufficient data be placed before this. or some future meet- ing to warrant taking such action. And that a committee be appointed by the meeting to investigate and report at a future meeting, such committee to con- sist of Mayor Horton, John Acheson, J, C. Dotlor and C. Seeger. C. Seager said, he believed there was a strong feeling that the Goderich foun- dry, ono of the few industrial institu- tions we possessed, should to retained in Goderich. And if it cpuld be shown that a joint etiek company could carry on the business suaoesefully, a great many would bo willing to aid ouch a scheme. There were, however,'many points upon which informatiou was re- quired which could not bo obtained to- night, but which could bo got by a committee who would investigate and draw up a scheme and report at a subse- quent meeting, when further action could be taken. The resolution he had just read did not bind any one to any definite action, but merely expressed the wish of the meeting that the Goderich foundry should not lie removed or clos- ed down, and that if it was found to be feasible, the scheme for the folmation of a company aheul l receive favorable consideration. Tho resolution, at all events, could do iso h is and right lead to some good. It would be at twist an expression of opinion that the people of Guderich were in favor ' f an effort being made to prevent the foun city buei- sineas from being remove! from (bele- rich. The promoter of the scheme had taken the proper course in . su;;geeting the formation of a joint stuck co:npany in which those who wished could sub- s gibe instead of asking a bonus by which the majority would compel all t.. pay whether they wi.tl:ed or not. outside show was a very tine one, the horses and cattle beim}; ,atrticularly num- erous and of good forts.

Mr. Coulon!, of Lncknow. 1)n 11.n'lay evening a tea -meeting was hell in the drillshed, and after all had partaken of the good things provided, they retired to the church, packing it to its utmost ca- pacity. Addresses, rich, pointed, pithy and evangelical were delivered by Rer- Messrs. Rice, Davey, Bennett (1 Mesh - terien) Cosford and (!.►mpbell. The C. M. choir from Goderioh, under the lead- ership of Mr. S. P. Halls, thrilled the andienoo with choice mucic, well render- ed, thereby adding much to the auoow of the meeting. The chair was ,occupied 1)y the pastor, Rey. Mr. Caswell. After the usual votes of thanks had been given the audience dispersed, well pleased with the entertainment ; and certainly the congregation is to be congratulated on the very neat and chaste appearance of their church, which is a credit to the village.

Johnston thought the matter ..f subm:tting ,t bonus should be brought before the ooaneil, but nothing of the kind had been done. Either apply for a hems through the council, or let the promoters of the scheme get tett a pros- pectus. C. Seager -This meeting is not for the purpose of asking n bonus ; It is to take steps t.t ;;et up a ,it• ok company. - F. W. .Johnston -''ell, let them get up n prospectus. J. H. Culb,roc--The promoters only want••,l to test public feeling towards the foundry at thia meeting. In due tine a prospectus would be forthcoming, if the committee reported favorably. T. McGillicuddy allowed that the int- tion was the only intelligent mode of ac- tion. Tho parties interested its the f,tun- dry now would be foolish to make a statement of their financial condition, unless they fart ctrtain they had the sympathy of the people. The very fact that s.ttee were even now ready to throw obstacles in the way, showed the wisdom of giving no detailed statement until the meeting hsd pronounced in favor of re- tsining the foundry, and a eosnmittee of clear-headed business men had been ap- pointed to examine affairs. F. W. Johnston did not believe the passing of the reu/lution would aceom - bsh any good. He was not hostile to the foundry, but thought it should bebenua- ed thr ongh the council, if it was worthy. If they wanted a stock company let them get out their prospectus, and he would give as winch toward the scheme, as any ons else, according to hi. means. Wm. Campbell endorsed Mr. John- ston's remarks, hut said that gentleman had been misunderstood bythe meet- ing.
