I woulcl not answer any more anonymous communicatione, being assured that it is not the interests of the munieipality that any persen seeks i.. who is ashamed or afraid. to give his name. Like .all cowards who ,delight M dealing a ,blow in the dark, he took good. care that no person should have the • chance of replying, by choosing the last issue of the paper for his foul abuse. • He evidently feels slighted. • For an anti- clote, I would refer him to the ltetuining officer's books. Perhaps he ina,y fin 'consolation in perusing their pages. would advise him to keep from despoil- 'deney. till we get incorporated into a town, then the electors may have pity en him ancl give him aeeeat in the happy family circle. It is gratifyiner to the Council to know that, in spite of the sophistry . of a •Darwin, •or the false reasoning of a Tom Paine, that they have been upheld by-sucb overwhelming ma- jorities. It is not the first instance on record where good has resulted where evil -web intended. Now, as the election is over, I hope that, instead of hostilities, we sha:11 have peace; and, that those who have for the past two Months devoted - themselves to tiae overthrow of the Coun- cil, will now tarn over •a new leaf and uphold their hands, while_ they honestly try to work for the best interests of the Municipality, and I expect that eacb of- ficer will so acquit himself in the per- formance of his duty that, .shoulcl he ever seek re-election from the elector's of Seaforth, he -will fare as the members of -the old Council did yesterday. Seeing, Mr. Editor, that the falsity of the accuse - tions brought against the Council have been established at the polls yesterda,y, I shall not again trespass ou your time with those matters.

Dickson, at the norainatton 111 Tuckersinith, charged. me -with incou- sisteney in supporting the narrow gauge London, Huron and Brace Railroad, and •opposing •a broad. gauge, though more. neeful, because it was to be iem by the Way of •Clinton. Mr. •Dickson at the time appeared irirtated, and may be did. not, as is lisped witil him,: duly weigh his words: At the time, I deemea it improper to introduce personal affairs into a public meeting of that kind, and allowed his aecusation to go uncontra- dieted. ; but, as the meeting was large, all parts of the township being repre- eented, perhaps *oil will be kind enough to allow me a space in your columns, to make a denial of the charge and explain the position I, witb many other rate- payers on this side Of the township, took en this said railroad scheme. Th.e first railroad bonus submitted to the taxpay- ers of Tuckeramith -Was for an Mdepen- • dent narrow gauge, which we strongly. tind SucCessfully opposed; and the whole scheme of a narrow gauge roadwas aban- i cloned. A 'proposition afterwards was Made that the Great Western should build and run a broad gauge line if -the municipalities interested granted aid at the rate of $4,000 per mile. A depute - ;ton from Seaforth, with their friends, ,-(vere invited by the Great Western Railroad officials to -visit Hamilton, and passes exere kindly granted. for their ac- .aeommedation. \Are had. an interview '-with the present manager of the Great trn wh.en he distinctly RailWay, not be as scarce as was once eXpected, on Wese told.nsthey -Were strongly opposed to the Clinton route for these reasons : It ewas mere difficult to build ; longer; 'closer to the lake ; therefore V-ould, not ;Secure so laige trafile, or, in other words would mvolve an extra outlay of over a quaTter of a million of clonal's, and a less return of prolit. He earnestly advise& us to lay th'e matter ill the most favorable light we could before the Lou- don, Huron and. Bruce_ directors so as to indace them -to alter the intended line of route fromeClinion to by the way of Sea - forth, and led -as to understand unless they did so, the Great -Western woad have nothing further to say to it. We attended. a Meeting of the London direc- tors, and then signed. a .doenment in which. we promised to use our hest en- deavors to secure sufficient bonuses, and I, being interested M Tuckersmith, sun - ply gave my oPinion- that, if tile Great Western Railroad Company- would enter into a proper agreement en the terms already stated, -Tuckeremith might be induced to grant a sum of $15,000. The London, Huron e and Bruce directors thought fit to reject the proposals inade, for reasons !best known to themselves and tie result bas been a miserable col! lapse- of the whole scheme, This, sir, is a simple statement of facts, in connection with which I feel I have nothing to re- • gret or be -ashamed of, and, should. the same ciremnstanees arise again, I am prepared to act in a similar manner, Mr. Dickson and others to the contrary, not- withstanding.
