TRE COUNTY MIN UTES. —We have re-
ceived. from the County Clerk a copy of
the printed.minntes of the County Coun-
cil at the January sessien, printed by
Messrs. Donaghy & Simmons -of. the
Goderich Star. The mechanical execu-
tion of the pamphlet is creditable to the
-printers, but the paper used is very
poor, and not nearly so good as should
be used m a book of this krnd i The
minutes are intended, principally, as a
book of reference, to- be kept fOr future
lase, and as silch, 'should be gotten up in
the most substantial manner possible, and
on.a first quality of paper. We de not
blame the contractors, however, for
;the poor quality of paper iiiect
Owing to the beggarly price which they
.receive for the work, they -are compelled
either to usepoor Material or lose heavily.
•Beeicles this, they will receive as nmeh
consideration at the hands of their em-
ployers for using the poorest quality of
material, as if they had gone to the ex-
pense of doing the work -properly. Last
year, the contractors went to much 67.ctra
• expense and trouble in getting up the
County book in first-class style, and
-ailed none- but the very _best material.
-But, had they clone it in a slovenly inan-
xter and on the most common material,
it would have been just as well apprecieted
by the County Council, and been a eon-
siderable stun in the pockets of the con-
tractors. Such is life.,

BUKNEss for the past few' days has
been very dull indeed. The fine, .evarm
spring weather keeps the fahners all bus-
ily employed at home. Still, Our village
assumes quite a lively appealance every
evening. The large number of men em-
ployed on the railway works has greatly
increased the number of inhabitants.
Mr. Hendrie has 70 men at work, and
is increasing the number •every day.
There are a good many men coming in all
the lime, from all directions, and all find
employment at once. Still, a great many
more, such as exe-mens and timber men
are wanted. Mr. Leckie is very busy,
buying the right of way—not a very
pleasant business, we should imagine,
trom all accounts. Notwithstanding,
Mr. .Leckie seems to bring about, as a
general thing 'very fair and satisfactory
bargains: This week the Company have
seen fit to add to Mr. Leckie's distance
of right of -way a number of miles, he
having received astru.-ations to buy from
"Winghara 20 mil t% east.
Buneeneet operatiens are going on
very lively at present. Mr. T7 IA atson,
blacls.sniith, is putting up a fine large
frame :workshop on his new premises;

aclditien to his storage room of a two-

ing a stone addition to his brick shop,
* two stories high, 20x30. Mr. Smalerhas
some astne building stones as any person
• would, wish to see.—Mr. Peter Thomson
has just commenced, the foundation of a
• fine two-story.frame house, 40x60, tp be
finished. in imitation of stone, and with
a gothic roof. If Mr. Thomson carries
out the plan which he has laid. down,
we have no hesitation in saying that it
will be the finest private dwelling in the
village. -

• TINWARE 13U 4NESS.—The-firna of Cor-
-Mack & Jackson, dealers in tinware and

of this kind has long been needed. We
hope the new firm will receive the share
of public patronage which they deserve.

THE HURON EXPOSITOR.
A Fanner on. the Rival ,Routeq.
To the Editor of the Buron Azpositor.
• SIR,—It is gratifying to the Mends of
the London; Huron and Bruce Railway
that the prOmoters of that enterprise are
now taking most active and energetic
steps to push on their read to Kincardine.
-
Whether the route rrrainton or Sea- -
forthewill be adopted has not, I believe,
been finally 'settled. If 1 am correctly
informed, the Company intend purveying
both the Eastern. and Central routes, and
will be guided. to a certain extent in
their decision by the distance, estimated
cost, and probable traffic obtain -able. If
that is the case, then I would say that
the Directors take a most .sensible view
of the matter, and. mostpeople would be
inclined to say that they are "the right
men in the right plape." Most people
who build railways woulcl be most likely
to build through a section • of country
that woulci be most likely to give the
best returns after they are built. This is -
what the farmers of Morris and Grey
particularly look to, -when they are in-
vesting their money in the shape of
bomeses, to aid. in constructing a railway.
It matters little to them what the per-
sonnel of the promoters of those railways -
may be, though they prefer those with
whom they come in contact to be gen-
tlemanly and courteous, but they select
only that which they think will be most
beneficial to theni. in carrying the pro-
ducts of the field And forest to market.
But there is a rumor afloat that the pres-
ent Directors of the London Railway,
will on no account come by Seaforth and.
Ainleyville, because the people of
Ainleyville, of • • Grey, and of the east of
Morris broke faith with the promoters of
the London Railway. The people of
Blyth and of, Clinton, however, we are
told, are a deserving people; they - ad-
hered to the London road, while Abaley-
vilhe the renegade, has aposta,eized, and
consequently should- be cut off. No
matter at What toes to the Company, the
roadmust be constructed by Clinton and
Blyth. • This, ' of course, must be mere
rumor; it is too absurd for sober truth.
I merely . give what is current in . Grey. -
But if the Directors of the London road
recall a little of the past, they may per-
ceive that-. when the promoters' of the
Loudon road decided to come by Sea -
forth and Ainleyville, then the Central
Route men, led by the Clinton New Bra,•
like the celebratecl ram m the narrow;
guage poem, became fully determined to
throw the London road off the track.'
They _would, I doubt not, follow the
same course again, should the promoters
of the London roacl determine to take
the Eastern Route. Thet fact alone
should deter the Directors from pro-
nouncing in the meantime in favor of
either route. . When the two routes are
surveyed, and it is seen which of the two
routes is shortest and easiest built; and
of most .advantage to the interests of
shareholders and of the city. of London,
then by all means let the Company adopt
the- route most advantageous to those in-
terested in thoenterprize. I feel con-
vinced that the Company will follow
this plan es being the most sensible for
men' -who are engaged in a great public
undertaking, and that no prejudice will
deter them from doing that which will
be of most benefit to the general. public.
There is an. opinion abroad, -which, in
justice to the people of Grey, at any
rate, • should be corrected, that the peo-
ple of Grey have been false to the Lon-
don Company; that they had pledged
fleet-label:yes to that Company and after -
Ward turned against their former friends.
Whatever odium may attach to the peo-
ple of Ainleyville on this point, I deny
that it can justly be applied to the
-farmers of Grey and • Morris. There
never was a single public .uteeting held in
theinterest of the Loudon road in the
Township of Grey. • There was a meet-
ing - in Ainleyville, but, although the
gatherine was large, how many of the
farmers of prey were there? Not one in
twenty ever had 211 opportunity of hear-
ing 'an address from a representative of
the London Railway. • The village of
Ainleyville is situated on the boundary
line between Morris and Grey, about
midway between northand south --the
Township extenclin.,& 81 miles, and length
from north to south' 12 miles,—let any
intelligent man.remember this,and how
many of the ratepayers could attend a
'meeting at 7 o'clock in the evening. I'
may safely say that the proportion (ne
in twenty is above the mak. Bat this
I know to be a fact, when things were
not going on as smoothly as the promot-
ers of the London road thought they-
sho-uld, they came in hot haste to Ainley-
eville and consulted Mr. John Leckie and.
a few others in that village, and. what-
ever these gentlemen had said, it appear-
ed the- gentlemen from London took it
for granted that the intelligent farmers Of
Morris and Grey were to will and to do.
But the people of Grey and Morris
never -delegated these gentlemen to be
.their mouthpiece in railway matters. Tn.
justice to the people of Ainley
-
vile, they continued to advo-
cate the London road to the very
.last. Although they knew the farmers
were determined ifpracticable to have
a road to the east, and encouragements
were given to the Wellington Company by
some who from the very firet were op-
posed to the London road, to come by
Ainleyville, and the farmers were almost
unanimOus in favour of that road. Nor
should the London people be displeased
with the farmers of Grey and Moirie
for taking a course -Which tlady consider-
ed most to their advantage. Every per-
son does this, and, I presume, so do the
peopk. of London. Mr. Leckie and the
people of • Ainleyville represented the
Hanailton Company as being imbued
with no higher aims in building their
road by .Ainleyville, than to kill, garrote
or choke the London road, and when
that object was attained we never should
bear any more of building a railway* to
Kincardine by Ainleyville,and in proof
of the extent to which this representa-
tion had gone, you will to this .day nieet
some who will ask if you think the rail-
wa.y will go on, although there are a
thousand. men eneaged in the work.
They also bewailed. and lamented. the
shortsightedness and self-delusion, as
they said, .of the advocates of the Wel-
lington road, among whom was your
humble correspondent. -Whatever the
people of Morris might do, Mr. Leckie
could not prevent the people of Grey
from supporting the Wellington Road,
• hacl he tried to do so. The Welling -too
Road gives advantages to the people of
Grey, that the London Roaddidenote
coming through the centre of the town-
ship from east to west, while the Lon-
don road came along the .western 'emu- I possible . to the chalkhne of truth and
honesty. Had Mr. Ratepayer done so
in the tirst.place I would be the last one
to interfere with him. .As it is his
scurriltrds lettere has earned for him the
contenipt and pity of every right think-
ing person in the township, " Ratepay-
Goderich.
SICKNESS. —There have been a great
deal of sickness and a large number of
(teethe here this season. Scarlet fever
has been very bad and many deaths
have resulted therefrom. Mrs. Dark,
wife of the proprietor of Dark's Hotel,
. was buried. on ltlonclay last; her funeral
was largely attended. She had been ill
for several months. Consumption was
the; cause of her death. She was a per-
son of about 58 years of age.
BissinESS.—Business has been remark-
ably dull here this Spriug,' and every
Persomis looking for navigation to fairly

mence, when it is anticipated times will _
brighten considerebly. About a year
ago business • matters were very brisk,
and -.it was confidently expected • by

lease of prosperity. The result was that
many invested. heavily in the purchase of
property, and in building, and as the
anticipated "good. times" did net come

prevented. them from coming rough
the township of Grey. No, ge emen,
Mr. Leckie could not have done that.
He was powerleas in this matter Let he
had to choose between the Wellington
Road and defeat. He continued to ad-
vocate the London Road until Mr. Mc-
Giverin laict his scheme before the peo-
ple. Then Mr. Leelsie was not so dull as
not to know the pulse of public opinion
in his township. 'This is a statement of
plain, unvarnished.. facts. Therefore, I
do not see in justice why the promoters
of the London Road should be offended
with Mr. Leckie and the people of Ain-
leyville for doing -what they could not
prevent: nor with the farmers of Grey
and Morris for dein(' what they conceiv-
ed. to be most to their interest. I would.
also remind the directors of the London
Road, that unless a railway in projec-
tion comes to a particular town or vil-
lage, that town or village will invari-
ably oppose that railway. This has been
the history of railroads through North
Huron. But farmers have not this nar-
rotv-mindedness ; they look more to what
is the general aood. I cannot account
for this unless it°beliving in the country,
and not cooped up in such a small place
as a village. If a rustic may offer an
opinion in such intricate matters as the
buildingof Railways, I think to build to
Ainleyville would be much the best
route. Traffic could be drawn to that
point on the Wellington Road, from
Palmerston and even from Southampton,
as being the most direct route for any
produce going south and west. Then
the city of London would compete for
the trade of the north, with the cities
.of Hamilton and Toronto. But if they
build on the Clinton route, they will
lose this valuable trade, as Wingham
is entirely too far to the west for pro-
duce on the main branch to be brought
that way, while by the eastern route
they will lose very little if any of the
traffic from the Central. Yours,
A FARMER.
Grey, May 1, 1872.
McKillop.
To the Eclitor of the Huron Expositor.
•DEA.R Sin,—Your truth -loving corres-
pondent, Mr. Ratepayer, has again
thought fit to impose with his silly tread.
die on the patienee of your readers. It
is amazing to witness the wiggling and
mean subterfuge he employs to blindfold
the petitioners, wth regard to the gross
insult he has given them in his first
letter. He states that sympathy with
and not ire againat them was his object
in writing. Let any person read the
first dozen lines of that letter, and they
will see how that !sympathy is expressed.
It simply states that they are immoral,
siinple, not enlightened, and by sigaing
ighat he calls a dishonest petition they
are also dishonest—in fact that there is
not their parallel to be found in the an-
nals of history for immorality, heathen-
ish simplicity and dishonesty. Of the
seventy persons whose names were on
the petition he says that not ten of them
knew what they signed. What egreg-
ious simpletons our people of McKillop
must certainly be. "Ratepayer" does not
relish my calling him a worthy person.
I always thought him such till he unde-
ceive(' me, and as he disclaims the title
I shalibe careful not to use it in connec-
tion witk his name in future. He states
most poeitively that he isnoconnection
of Her MLijesty, ,ont Queen. I am per-
fectly aware that he has no connection
with royalty, although be come of a chs -
tin enished parentage and has some rather
ariaocratic relations in the British Isles.
Acting as usual upon suppositions, he be-
lieves I received pay for writing, I willnot
even waste words in contradicting him,
as he seems capable of believing anything.
The howl that he raises over the idea
that be writes for nothingia most lugu-
brious. Perhaps the seventy ratepayers
whose characters he has so shamelessly
villified might be induced to grant him a
small bonus by. way .of reward for his
literary efforts, and for the amusement
Itis frantic ravings have giventhe public.
He did not infer that any perion was the -
image of Baal. Does he then write with-
out a meaning, or Whet am I to make of
-the words that I °am endeavoring to be-
come a relative of the defendant. This
is all Greek to me. I am not alone in
the werld, being well supplied with re-
latives, and cannot see how I can become
allied -to the defendant m any manner.
" Ratepayer " should not write in para-
bles. Regarding the disputed side road,
he says the court in June will settle
that.. I am perfectly willing to leave
that bone with " Ratepayer ' till then
and will quietly await its decision. • Let
him, hewever, remember the ,proverb
that "there is many a slip between the
cup and the lip." I would suggest that in
the meantime he should look over his
array of figures and perfect himself in
laud measure, in which he seems even
- more deficient than your humble servant.
Ratepayer states very confidently that
the delendant could not get the same
parties to put their signature e to his pe-
tition again. For his edification I will
state that for every one he may intimi -
.date from signing by his arrogance and
browbeating'1 will find him twent• y
good men anditrue whose names are not
on the petition, who will -willingly sign
B.e thinks there is no need of
soft soaping any one. That is
iny opinion exactly, and therefore
1 - censider his tirade of non-
sense about the Council being.heroes,
their bleeding and dying for their coun-
try like their fathers of old, &c., quite
superfluous. A few loonths ago, if I
mistake not, " Ratepayer " held other
opinions, and used. far different language
in speaking of those same Conncillots.
When he found the Council would not
entertain defendant' e petition, he felt as
jubilant as a boy en receiving the present
of a new top, and, therefore, rushes di-
rectly into print. His object in doing so
seems to have been twofold. If notcon-
traclicted it might help to inflitence
jurors, your paper, in all probability,
would. fall into the hands of some of the
gentlemen who will form the jury 'when
the case is brought forword, and his well -
told story naight cause them to form a
favorable opinion of his side of the case;
and secondly, he, in all lildihood, is
lacking information on some points of the
case and thought to draw what he wants
out of defendant, should he think worth
while replying to his letter.
Our paragon of a writer concludes his
precious -production with the threat that
if Mr. Critic, as he calls' me, does not
keep to tbetruth, he will not reply again.
I woultrhave him to know that it is my
custom to always keep as strictly as
dary for about six miles only. Now, I
beg to inform the promoters of the Lou-
don Railway, that they need pot for one
moment suppose that Mr. Leckie's ad-
hesion to the London scheme would have
defeated the Wellington Company and
er" may renly or leave it alont just as he
pleases. For my part I will not notice
any more of his communications.- One
cannot handle pitch without being de-
filed. I trust if he possesses the small-
est atom of common sense he will not
seek again to deface the fair pages of the
Extostron with his ribaldry nor put
better men to the trouble of replying to
him. Yours, MR. CRITIC.
[Enrron's NOTE. —In corapliance with
the written -request of several of those who
signed the petition, we publish the above
communication. This, however, must
be the last; for the present at least, on
this subject, for reasons which we gave
last week.]
