The people of- the: northern part of this County have, for a consider- able time been desirio:us - of Obtain- - in convenient and suitable rail way - facilities for the purpose of mote h. thoroughly developing the resources , of their tine. and fertile count ry, and prheing them in as direct conntettli- cation ai 'possible with the leading markets of the world. Soon afterl this- want was made- known the. pro- jectors of various railway schemes earn& before thern with their oro Jeeta seeking assistance to , enable them, to place within their teach the faeilicies which their .schernes would afford: At the present. Lnie the- peo- - pie ofthis eectiou of - the conntry have no fewer than four _railway entetheisesplacepronnuently be- fore theinfor their consideration and support. The tisk therefore ofde adding upon, the merits of eahh and choosing that .which will be m s -useful to diem, is one of considerable diet uity, and involves a vast diver. aity of opinion. The directors of the Wellington, Gr v and Brute IL1ilway are now - seeking aid to enable them to't n- struee adecanch from a point on their ' reedit line -in the ,tawnship of Wal lace, th reugh by way - of • Li:stow A itileyville,-Bluevale and_Winghain to lauelanow, and from thence to Klucardine. This bratteh wnen cam pie -fed would become part . and par - eel of the Great Western Railway, as die proprietors of that road. bind themselves to stock it,. and ran is for all time to come: The, facilities which th is road would afford wouldcer- tainly beemost valuable. It _would open a thannei of :traffic to the vari- ous American. .niarkete, and Would • thus cnahle the people of this meth, ern couatry to ship their, stock and. - such of their products as find a mar- ket in. -the United States, directly to that market without break of • bulk or transhipment. It is a fact, however, that under. existing cir- cal unatances the American •ma-rkets, are to a great extent closed against our ihoduce- by the heavy tax im- ,posed upon it by -the American .tar - riff rep !Adana, • Our produce mar- ket,there-fore, is in Europe, and to reach the_Etiropean market by this proposed road through our own ter- ritory, would entail 'break of bink and. consequently -delay and increas ed experise. This difficultycould b remedied, of course, if the Granc Trunk and Great Weatern Railway- were- of uniform pages, and •woul allow the. cars ofone road to ru • oyer the track of the other. - The _ they willtuitimately be of -uniform guage there is little doubt, but tha eyeteat of reciprocal traffic will ever exist between. them is very deulatfah The principal objection, t mest plausible excuses re given by the prernoters of this ac erne for the adoption oi this cpurse, but in view cif aft the circamitance we cannot , einshientiously bring urselves to believe but that the pr fes4ons and promises of the Welli gt n, Grey and Bruce men are mad w lolly and solely to secure the' rote don of their nraio hue, and wi h to other object in view. It is a •atter, hotto I ever, fo.r the peohile themeelves to •consider. . They haYe th , faets ef th case !refute/ them, and ifth choos to run thel'risk, we can lot see tht t .

In the th.st plac , the le ineipal townships thiougir,v.

P. Hayes, cf Sveaferth As will be seen by an able letter; etinother part of this paper, the fourth scheme is that of a branch of the Grand Trunk from Seaforth to Wroxeter, with an ultimate con- tinuation to 'Kincardin 3. SO far as the townships are concerned, this would afford . them facilities for reaching all markets immeneely superior to any of the- other routes. But frem a Seaforth co Ainleyville point of view we cannot see that it is a scheme mech to be d sired. would be WrOxeter's gain, Had r -However, what wouldi be ou • loss this enterprise been brough t for- ward a morith earlier., it would no doubt have attraeted a greatdeal of public a...tendons and quite likely would ha e throwritheether schemes into the shade.- Ever yet in the event of the -failure or delay of the othera, there . is ' no doubt hat the Searfordi, Huron and Bru e Road will again be heard of. I Taking he benefit of the Whole County into consideration, outh as well as North, none of th routes , propoeed wilt be so advanto eous as that of the `Loudon, Huron and 13t uce by the Ea.stern routes' Hey- , t. ing the welfare of the whidle County , e in view without regard to . ectional 1 -interesth, we are now, as ft rmerly, s of the opinion that this is t le Road d j for Huron, more' especiall if the n four feet eight and a, half gua ge were t adopted. _And we are fired of the • Opinion, that, after all, wl en the present t blowing and Vuffing of the fever subsides, this is., the ro this the gueeiti which evill triumph. howeverto this scheme, is the a r - parent lack of sincerity on the part of its promoters to carry it out to completion, even did they secure the aid and encouragement neeeesary to • enable -them to do so. The more closely we look into, and consider Ike circireumstances connected with the enterprise, the more strongly does this feeling become im- pressed upon the mind. In. the first place, it is a little strange that a corporation, such as the proprietors of the Great Western, shordd en- courage and promote a road, and engage to ma that roacl. for all ti n e, which will run directly parallel witls and branching from an existing road under -their control, at An • averaged istance of abou b foarteen pules from it. If their existing road i)ossesses the facilities wirier" they claim it does, it should: surely draw half of the present unoc- cupied territory. If it did this., it would take •in all but about thi•ce or four miles which will I he tribiltary to this proposed Eastern I Extension. -We cannot therefore bring onrseIves to believe that the Great Western Railway. Oompanv, would bind theinselvee to stock, and rm I a road for all time, which could not bring under their control _a t greater extent of territoly than four or even five miles. In the second place, not a word of this Southern I Extension scheme was ever heard of, until it was proposed. to tap the ter- ritory tributaty to the main line by a road from a different direction. I But, no sooner was the feasibility of this tapping eold mooted, than ;1 those interested in the main line 'I came to its reacee by inaugurating ; 1 ___00•0•Ntss_sanamsmatw, _ • A Difference of Opinion.

Town- ship The vptes on the question of gran t- int; id to the Toronto, Grey and Bruce, and the Wellington, Grey and Bruce road will soon -be taken. Before deciding thos questions, it behooves you to con- sider your position with regard to the grea markets of the United States and the astern seaboard, and to carefully weigh the effect of hampering yoursetves i • heavy taxation in aid of routes whico would not afford you the best facili ies for reaching these great markets. Shortly after my arrival in Seaforth, three years ago, I was struck with the neces ity for a railroad connection of some ind to bring your produce down to th nearest point on the Grand Trunk, and --aforth seemed to me to be the natur• 1 point for such a cr nnectiom had a interview then with Mr. Brydges on th subject, and he also took the same iew of it. He saw how important the co nection would be, and he said then t let if we would start the project he would. do all in his power to aid it. spoke also to some of the business men of Seaforth on • the subject, and though they approved of the scheme, they {did not think the country was ripe for it yet I mention this fact ' to show you that the scheme is not a new one started just now for the purpose of injuring other projects, but that, on the • contrary, it is a scheme which has for a long tinae occupied • the attention of railroad and business men, and one that presents nnmense advantages over any project now before you. The reject is simply to build a Rail- road f tem Seaforth to Wroxeter, by Walto and Ainleyville, with power to extend hereafter- to Kincardine or Saugee i. This is aproject entirely with- in your own means, and me of which the p ofits attending tl e construc- tion ould be retained amongst yoursel es. It would. be emphati- cally home road, and at the same time it voulcl give you direct connection by the hortest and cheapest route with Buffalo, Hamilton, Toronto and Mont- real, o show you how . perfectly pos sible an 1 easy it is for you:to build this Road I ive you the following figures. The dis ance from Seaforth to Wroxeter - is 26 (tiles ; the line of country is peculia ly favorable for the construction of a rail oad, nearly deacl-level and no large ri -ers to be crossed. The Road could b• graded, and the ties laid down ready f r the iron tor $6,000 per mile, includin right of way, or $156,000. This su • can be raised as follows: The Go ernment Bonus, which I have 1 doubt can be secured, would be $2.000 per mile, or $52,000 Seaforth Village Bonus ......... 20,000 McK o Township 20.000 Morris. 20,00 Grey 20,000 Ho wick •15,000 Tu rnber 15,000 S 62, -00 - and Trunk Railway Company o aid in procuring the iron by. a t is matter on the 1st instant- He gave u every assurance of sum)," and as y • u will see by his letter herewith he pr•poses a means by which the iron can be readily obtained, large meeting of the ratepayera of Se forth was held the same eveniwg to di cuss the matter, but no conclusion, w s come to. Some of the Seaforth peo- pl arg,ued. that the Seaforth, Huron and. Br ice road would be no •advantage to Se: forth village, that the merchants of W Iton, .Anileyville, and Wroxeter wo Id •then, be able to sell go ds just as cheap as the Sea - for h merchants, and pay just as 1 igh prices for grain and so on. So the Se forth peopla at least some of them, are lnkewarm bout it. Now, whatever ma be the e eet of this road On the vij1 tie of Seaf rth, there can be cell- one 00 ion of the immense attvantage it Wil Id be to the townships and villa.ges or h of us along the line of the road. 8 now, gentlemen, this is the posi- tio The scheme is before you, and i t is a re 1 bona fide scheme, feasible and easi- ly • ccomplished, nut there is no one to WM' it up unless you do it :your- selves. The Seaforth people, as men- tioned before, are lukewarm. The Gran& Trunk people are willing to help, but they are not going to initiate the pro- ject or to carry it out For my part, have no time to devote to railway mat- ters, and in thus launching the scheme tor your consideration, I have done all - that ever meant to do for it. So it has either to stand or fall by its (Wril ineritg 110W. If- you think it worth taking up, let s rne of your leading men hold meet - filet; at once and appoint a Provisional Boar I ;to work it. I • ppend the letter of Mr. Brydges, from which you win see his opinion of the roposed road, and also that there nted be no oifficulty in procuring the men, ary iron for its construction. m, gentlemen, your obedient ,ser- vant, hi.*P.
