THE RAILWAY FOR THE NORTH-
ERN TOWNSHIPS:
A few weeks ago, we called attention to
the fact of the energetic people of the North-
ern Townships of this County, and the ad-
joining ones of Bruce, making an effort to
secure an extension of the Toronto, Grey
and Bruce Railway, through the part of the
country itidicated. The following letter has
been receiv-ed in reply to a communication
from a committee appointed at one of the
, •
numerous meetings, that have been held in
the vicinity, to take the matter into con-
sideration. Front the tone of the letter, we
are ied to conclude, that there are good

DEAR Stn, --Your lettel. of the 4th inst.,
was laid before our Board at its last sitting,
and after flue consideration, Messrs.
hart, Howland and myself were appointed a
Committee to reply to it, and to further
confer with you upon the important sub -
to which it related. On behalf of the Com-
mittee I would first State that the,Board .
fully occupied at present in building the
first section of tire road, viz. : from Toronto
t� Arthur, which they expect to have open
.for traffic dering the piesent year. It will,
however, tiftard the Board pleasure ,ao co-
operate with its friends in North Iluron
and South Bruce in making such arrange-
ments as will ensure the extension of the
line to Kincardine at an early clay. - The
Board, I may say, never for a, moment lust
sight of such extension for Kincardine -as a
terminus. The defeat of the Bruce By-law •
of course, leaves the Company free to select
• the line that will suit the country best, and
bring the load themost bonus and traffic.
You ask, first, the Board's opinion re-
• garding the route as laid down in • your
latter, namely --..starting somewhere between
• Arthur and Mount Forest, on the latter
point cutting across Minto, near Harris

tons. and thence between the 8th and 9th
coneessiOn Howick, near Lisadel, Gorrie
and Wroxeter, then southwest to Bluevale,
to Wingham and ,1sucltnow, terminating et
Kincardine. ;'
The Coratnittee has no data before it to
form a correct opinion or give you a decid-
ed answer to this queetion. The new route
would certainly bring the road mneh furth-
er south than originally contemplated.
You ask, secondly, the lowest amount of
bonus that.would be required. sPis also
could only be answered - after making, at
any rate, some slight prelinitinary examin-
ation of the country. Tie Bou d, however,
-does not anticip Lte much trouble in at -rang-
ing the amount of bonus required from the
various municipalitiee iliterested-troutes
and other matters first being settled. To
enable the Directors, however, to definitely
answer these two moa important questions
in your very interesting letter, I would
suggest that your Committee, as' esrly as
possible, send me authentic returns of the
last Township Assessments, the number of
acres in each, the amount cleared and in

number of attle, s what timber, lumber,

New YORK, Feb. 2Sth, 1870.
e
It is now xi( wily five years since the close of
the war. At that time it was generally thought .
the progress of restoration from the effects of the
struggle•would be very rapid, and that in a few
years the country would be moreprosperous than
ever. And so it has been in the North; the
physical prosperity of the Northern and Western
States was never greater than sine the close of
the war. But the Southern States have made
little progress. They were so totally exhausted
by the war, so discouraged by their reverses
and so weighed (Town by the incubus of ignorance
and unthnft which characterized their negro
and poor white population, that the work of re-
storation with them was of tenfold greater diffi-
culty than with theirnorthern brethern. But
some advance has been made. The disabilities
of the whilom rebel States have been for the
• most part removed, and they are now entitlecl
once more to representation in Congress, and to
self-government in their local affairs, which they
forfeited by rebellJon. Agricultureand commerce
have been revived and education is now more
general and. of easier access then ever before. lt
will Ise, however, the work of generations rather
than years to -produceein the Southern States
that advancement and prosperty with which its
• productive soil and favorable climate should be
attended.
The high taxes which followed, and were a ne-
cessary result, of the war, have been a heavy
burden on the people both north and south But
the credit of the country at home and abroed
has improved; gold is lower now than at any
time since 1862, and 1 nierican securities are
correspondingly high in the London market,
An -effort is being mac in the present Congress
to have the taxation reduced to a considerable
extent, and is likely to be successful. A lower
rate, it is thought, would stimulate trade and
return nearly as inuch revenue as the present
burdensome tax.

THE SECTARIAN QUESTION.
There is a question now blooming up in the
United States which may before long eclipse all
others in the public attention. You have dis-
cus3edtt often—and that within a few years—in
Canada. It is that of Sectarian Schools; or in
other words, Church and State. It woUld seem
as if the demon—Church and State,—worsted
and daily losing ground ie Europe, were about to
tranefer its field of action to America, and here
make a fresh stand -against freedom and equality
in education and religion. The 'reading of the
Bible in the common schools has been made a
pretext by a large section of the Catholic Church
for a declaration of war against the common

The Final Blow to Fenianiem, in the
• Shape of a Decree from the Pope.
An unexpected blast has just come from
the Holy City. It is intended to sweep to
the dust he whole fabric of Fenianisin in
Ire:and and America. His Holiness has
just signed a decree, embracing an anthema,
against the Fenians and classifying them
among the Carbonell and other enemies ot
the diurcb. Under this decree, the dis-
ciples of General O'Niel, John (Mahoney
and James Stephen?, r,re cut off from the
Church, .denied the Sacraments, and the
ordinary right of Christian burial. They
cannot be buried in consecrated ground, and
any clergyman, priest, fir bishop, who under-
takes to absolve them of their sins, while
they are connected with the organizations
now under the Papalban, does so at his own
peril.

An accident of rather a setions nature
occuried onlFriday last, at 11 o'clock, to
No. 3 express train, which left Sarnia at
10:50. The train csnsisting of two pasen-
ger cars, welli filled, also a baggage, express
and post office car, was thrown off the track
and down asteep embankment over sixteen
feet, three miles from Forest Station ; the
cars being turned on their side, the tender
across the track and the engine thrown off.
At the moment of the accident of course,
the utmost confusion prevailed, and well
there might, for several had narrow escapes.
As it was, some ten or twelve were braised,
cut, and otherwise injured,- and were im-
mediately removed from the ruins of the
stnathed-up train to Forest Station, where
medical attendance was promptly on hand.

a couple were brought to Torontoearly-in thts
morning. A lady and gentleman from
Peterson, New °Jersey, were injured,
but -
not seriously. The former had one of her
sides bruised and cut while the latter has
• received injuriei about the head. • Another'
lady was found lying near a stove with her
arm broken, and her head cut. Mr. Quintet
and wife, of Montreal, were on the train.
The latter is wounded about the head, but
not seriously. The train men and conduct-
or were prompt in putting out the fires, so
that the accident was confined to the smash-
up alone. It is supposed that the enginetia
its progress along the track broke one Of the
rails, hence the calamity.
Those passengers who. kept their seats es-

those who rushed for the doors and sprang

other, but escaped uninjared. h is fortun-

bury the political hatchet for a time,—to
forget that each had, times without nuMber,
branded the other as rogues of the deepest
dye, aed totally unworthy of public confi-
dence. By this action on the part of our
leading men, the reins of power were event-
ually thrown back into the hands of those
from whom Reformers had so, long, and so
zealously, labored to, wrest them. The
consequencic is, that the ,e‘ffairs of the

An explosion of an oil still occurred at
London, at the refinery of Englenart & Co.,
on Thursaay afternoon last, by -which one
man was fatally and others seriously in-
jured. The London Advertiser says it ap-

such OCCaSiOTISWa8 filled with highly in-
fiamable and explosive gases.One of the work-
men incautiously raised the lid covering
the man bole, and an escplosion resembling
the discharge of a cannon followed. The
still was blown completely- out ot its bed,
the masonry in which it was set scattered
and broken, and, worse than ail, two men,
Oliver Odell-, engineer, and William Hunt,
were dangerously burnt with the blazing gas,
• and two or three others standing near at the'
time were also more or less injured. Od-
el's injuries are so severe that it is thought
his recovery is impossible, His death was
reported about an hour after the
occurence ; but we are not certain
whether the statement is reliable. He is a
married mast and father of three children.
Hunt's injuries are severe, but not consid-
ered dangerous. The damage was confined
to the destruction of the still and a small
shanty adjoining. The main works of the
refinery stood some distanee off, and re-
trained uninjured. The fire bells in the
city were rung, and the brigade turned out
but there was ver Y little need for their
services. There are contradictory • minces
as to the cause of the explosion, and
no reliable statement can at present be
obtained with regard to fee affair. The
loss is set down, at $3,000. The •unforta-
nate man, Oliver Odell, who was so severly
burned by the explosion of an oil still at
Englehart's refinery, at London, on Thum -
