There is scarcely . a day goes by but we bear the remark, "should the proposed Landon, Huron and Brace Railway pass through Sea - forth, it will injure it, if not 'kill it dead.". Now, we cannot see the matter in this light. We have giv- en the whole question most earnest ' and se ous consideratien ; we have i -viewed it in all its bearings, and the conclusion we have - arrived- at is, that should such a road he built, and we have not the slightest doubt . On this point, it will :prove an ines- -timable benefit taevery resident, as wellasto eveiy property -holder - of Seaturth, to have it pass directly - through our village. In order to prove pis -assertion, it will he nec- essary, in the first place, to shove what the probable loise tie the village may be should such a work . be car- ried out, and, in the second place, to estimate the probable gain, and then strike a balance 1treen the two, and see 'upon whi 1 side the greater weight will be. In the first place, then, should this road be built through Seaforth, we will, undoubt- edly, lose a portion of the trade, from the ,North aud South of .us, as grain merkets will be established at points whem there is now no.. sure market for produce, for the reason that . there is no railway to carry it off. But this is all that we can pos- sibly lose, and even this is not so great a loss, when it comes - to be looked into, as would at first appear, It is a well-known factthat neither the Northern or Southern trade, from a distance greater than twelve or fourteen miles, is wort much to us. Of course, we geth-the grain trade from a much greater distance. but it is merely the • grain -trade. Those parties who do not live. con- tiguous to Seaforth come -here and sell their grain, get their mone?; and hike it away to A inleyville, Wroxeter, Exeter, and 'other places, and vend it there, instead of leav- ing it with our merchants. This is quite -easily underetpod, as the far- mers of those distant tawnships run bills, during the summer with the merchantand -teadeamen of these villages, and are in duty bound, when they have money, to patronize those who accommodated them dur- ing the summer seasob, when, per- haps, the exchequer was l o V7. Th is is an established fact, and will, we fancy, oe reedit); assented to by a majority of the k basinese men, not only of Seaforth, bat cf the neigh- boring villages we have mentioned. Such being the case, what are eve te lose by having the railway? Simply that portion of the grain trade which now can -not conveniently or prof- itably find its way here, and noth- ing mem In opposition to this loss, what are we to gain? By this railway passing through Seaforth, there will be a mitcht better market for all kinds of produce than there now is, foe the reason that we will haveenot (Ay a choice of routes, but a choice of markets: We will have the priv- ilege of shipplag our- produce either by the Grand Trunk to Montreal, orhy the new tine to Port Stanley; and from thence to the bestAmeri- can' maikets. Not only this, but as Seaforth will be a crossing, and con- sequently a COU3peting point between the two roads, freights will be much iower than they now are, and lower thaat at other titations where there .ts_lo , ompe ition. r Bekidles, Ly the ,..1 - et - new_ road, th facilities for shipping, in the way oi rolling steek, will lie .largele inereased.

The nierchents w ll• also bet enabled - to sell their - goods at a lower figure than can . poSsibty he dene at -those other stations. . Now, if a farmer. i( can get a cen . or two cents a bushel more for his- grain here, and can, at ale same tiiie purchase his neces- salty store gods cheaper than he can elseWhere, is it not reasonable Lo supt ose t at hp will come here to I deal'?

Saturday, Dec. 31 —The eve' -ac- tive Genhietta has returned to Bor- deaux, and has set to work with re- newed energy to devise and early out means for the deliverance of the couutry. Reinf -rcements have been sent- to the front with additiohal supplies and artillery of a new pat- _ tern. Gen. Chausey has assumed the offensive with successful results, and Bourbaki is to march to the east, with the intention of operating on the Prussian lines of cominUnica- don. Another report states that Bour'oaki is to unite his forces with those of Cnausey, and with all the troops of France in the western de- partments, make a desperate attack main the Prussian investments around the capital, and endeavor to relieve the city and supply it with fresh food, of which he is said to have gathered an im na en se quantity It is asserted that „the French- have 750,000 men under arinseand if they have anything like these figures they should make a bold and ener- getic effort to drive back the hither- to successful invader. TRE SIEGE BEGUN IN EARNEST. The Prussians are reported to be withdrawing their forces from the •easterr. departments and concentrat-- iug them around Paris, leaving only sufficient to keep open communica- tion. It is evident the Prussians heve commenced siege opmations in real earnest, and severe fighting, of the most desperate and destructive character May now be expected be- fore -the walla of Paris. A dozen shells have eli•eady been thrown iiito the subu cos of La Villette and Belleville, by the Prussian guns, at a range of 7,000 yards. Reinforce- ments from Germany to the extent of 150,000 men are stated to be hurrying forward to Paris. FRENCH SUCCESSES—THE POPULATION j RISING. Monday, Jan. 2.—The towns of Auferres, Gray and Vesoul have been evacuated by the French, un- der the command or Generals Bres- soles, Bremes and Garibaldi. The army of Bordeaux is to march di- rectly on Paris. As the French ad- vance, the inhabititnts hasten to join the ranks, aud thus the army in- creases rapidly in'numbers. Small er towns now resist, as in the case of Tours, which was not occupied by the Germans. At Cog the Prus- sians were repulsed by the popu- lation. • GERMA),TY WEARY OF WAR. The Prussians are now sending to the front the Landwehr of the sec- ond ban, aged 42 and 43. It is con- sidered that the utmost effort which Germany is capable of making is being inade. Though the system of outlaying a vast army is admitted to be admirable, it cannot obviate the dissatisfaction and distrust' which exist in considerable sections ofter ritory. Notwithstanding official statements.concerning-the victualing and clothing of the troops, the popu- Jar instinet, appreciates the difficul- ty of the situation in its proper light, and although no sign: of dis- cour..gement is perceptible, the for- mer entlillSiiI8111 has ceased to exist, and a strong desire for peace is ex- pressed. THE FINAL STRUGGLE. The Prussians are bringing up re- serves of Land wehr, and concentrat- ing around Pa.iis, to prepare for the final struggle. Prince Frederick Chailes has retired to the besieging army around the capital, and will, no doubt, be closely followed by the French forces in the western de- partments. THE BOMBARDMENT. Tuesday, Dec. 3..—The Prussians have, at last, got ready for the born- ldardment, and the great guns are to open in terrific style from the western and southwestern lines of investment. There are, it is stated, some 1.500 guns of all sizes placed around the capital. - GAZBETTA. AGAIN. Gambetta tells the people they must not confound the Republic with the persons who had been forced by events to assume power, and assures them that; the members of the Provisional Government would, as soon as the Prussians have been driven from France, re- sign th,eit offices. and thus give the nation an opportunity of expressing its ()Onion upon their conduct. He earnestly advocates the largest lib- erty Of opinion, and maintains that speech must be as free as thought, with some essential qualifications as - to those licentious - a,giottois who seek to arouse esiti.rit of lthstility to the.Covernme.Anti of A11 s) yus cabu aittt1,)eneni ep this privilege. he cdnsiders, should be energetically repressed. FORT AVRON-7THE WEATHER. The abandonment of Fort Avron is reported, and has caused same despondency in Paris. The weather continues cold, and the troops or both illations have suffered sevet•e losses through exposure to the .in- clemency of the season. PRUSSIAN DEMANDS: It is beyond doubt that the Prus- shalt wilt he satisfied with nothirg less than the capiailatien of Paris ; but i is equally cle-1-1- that the be- siegers will not tine this as eesy of accom pl ish me n t as they apptiar to have anticipated.- The 1 avisions, accut•ding to despatches to the last of December, are eagerly urging General Trochu to make a sortie - with as large a force as possil)le, and thus break up the enemy's lines. As the Prussians are reported to be re- tiring from the Loire towards tile capital; followed by the French un- der Cheusey, ic is not improbable that Trochu v ill, thorn -nuiiiitary reasons alone, gratify the somewhat sanguinary desires of the citizens. itis stated that in the latest ad vices from Paris that the citizens are suf- feting from want of coal. The sup- ply of that necessary articie is 18- lquired for the mills and the manu- factories of cannon and srriell arms. The people Jare therefoie, in tlieir extremity, cutting down the trees of the isois de Boulogne, and the Bou- levards. The beautiful city will thus be deprived of one of its great- est charms, and in this respect alone - will long bear the traces of the fear- ful ordeal through which it is now passiiig. One of tbe Paris papeis— the Electeur Libre—has been dis- cussing the advisability of continu- ing or terminating the struggle ; and attacks the Provisional Government for not adopting more energeticmeaures in defending the city. Some of the other jonrnals elso criti- cise the c conluit oifoth ._ e Government, and the Patric hes been suspended three days for furnishing the Prus- sians with mi-itary intelligence.

For some flute past numbers of cattle and sheep disappeared very mysteriously from the Townships of Warwick and Plynipton. What became of them it was for a consid- erable time difficult to ascertain; but ultimately two men, named William Simpson and Henry Sew- aru, residing in Warwiek, not far from Watford, were suspected of be- ing connected with their disappear- ance, . and their movements were closelY watched with the view of bl'illeing he crime home to them. Suecient proof of their guilt was accordingly obtained about ft week ago, and both were arrested and brought before Jessy Kenward and Thomas Saunders, Esquires, Rt Wat- ford, on Monday last Thi eiantina- • tion. tit the examination, Joshep. Cook testified that he saw the pris- oners driving four head of cattle, all about three years old, which they offered to sell him for $100. An- drew Edwards testified that about two months ago Sirepeon took to his place twenty sheep, 'asking to have them put into his ft eld Per- mission being graned, ted, hey remain- ed a week, a hen they were sold to a man named Irwin. Ile next brought seven head of cattle, some of which he sold, and others he .1)u tehered ItIld sold at Petroliit. . Edwards stated that he saw . two hehd purchased from H, Crone, but doubtless all the others were 8tOlell: .0enry Haley testified that he saw tlie prisoners butchering a. number of cattle and sheep this fall, which he • thought were not honestly couie by. One circumstance which excited his slia- picion, was that they never brought cattle home in the day time, but al- ways at night. The evidence of their guilt being fully establislied by Seward's con- fession, 1)o th prisoners w -ere cornm it - ed to jail on thb 26th inst., to await their trial for the offence. After their committal both expressed a -de- sire to be tried sinnmarily, and they evere brought before Judge Robin- son, Judge of the County Court, on Wednesday last, ler trial. The charge agaitst Sim pson was for steid - ing our heed of cattle from James Simmons—to which he pleaded guilty; and was sentenced to Eve year's tiry. mparison men t in Kingston p Seward himself, who said he had been in Simpson's employment for two months, helped him to drive and butcher cattle and sheep, oa the examination confessed the whole af- fair, giving a circumstantial account of the.nuzaber of cattle and sheep they had stolen froze time to time, and where they were got.
