A REMINISCENCE OF '60.
^
Mr. J. j. WrightRecalls Some lucid-,
eats of That Stirring Time.
Next Monday, the Rth of March.
will be the forty-rceoud auniveriary
of nip departure of the lioderieh vol.
nn leen for Sarnia. sae a Fenian ine'e•
slou was daily ezpectcd at that point.
The force eon.iiled of two cumpaunes,
amounting to dal wen all testa,the
Ooderich (iat•rison Artillery raised by
A. Al. Hoes and the Huron tidier
organized by Capt. John W. Seymour
at the tituc of the Trent affair. There
must still be quite a number of people
in town who were wittievwt'r of the ex•
citing conditions which prevailed ou
the day mentioned.
Hen. Hazlehutwt, the bugler, was
ordered to souud the nsse•wbly at all
prominent place% us the town to call
the men to arms, ,t cuwtuittsion be die -
charged Moet admirably, as till those
now living can testify. It wan a day
long to be remembered in the history
of Goderich.
At v o'clock iu the afternoon all the
teen were duly mustered and marched
up to the railway steams. where a
train wise all in readiness to conveyy
them to their destination. The erlil-
1 .ry company was under command uf
Lieut. J. 1'. T. Kirk and the Hifles
under Wilt. W. T. Hays. The whole
town beamed to be 011laud, including
allt he school children, to see thein off
au Q the utmost enthusiasm wan exhib-
itteedl
In looking the town and neighbor-
hood over ar 1 write. I can Hud only is
few who were in the ranker that day.
They are as follows : John Brophey,
Stephen Andrews, W. Finer. of the
artillery eotupany and \Nilson Salk -
old, Capt. Aloutgomery, Oen. Mont-
gowerv, Wum. Fraser. John Mitchell.
Bond Lowy/won and J. J. Wright of
the Rifles. Of the officers Lieut. Kirk.
of the Artillery and "Batty" Seymour.
of the Ritleeei, are the only two now
living, the former residing in Brussels
and the latter in Detroit.
To show bo w•
c cruel what havoc t e time
makes in the ranks of our friends, the
fallowing incidents will tell. A little
memorandum is now before me, being
a list of 'the names of prominent
people of that time who sent down to
Sarnia a liberal subscription to enter -
t tin the Ooderich men to an rooster
supper, which Wok place at the well-
known hostelry, the Bellcba,nbs
House, and proved a most enjoyable
affair. In connection with this, 1
must not forget, as an act of common
justice to the memory of the late
Dixie Watson, to state that he con-
tributed the lion's share in making it
so successful. The only man of that
dozen living today is our old towns-
man R . G. Smith.
These few lines are given just to
keep up the thread of a narrative
which it has on several occasions
given me much pleasure to write.

AN EX .ANATION
With Reams t. Electric Railway
Co.'s Application. to Parliament.
lo view of the action of the flown
council lo instructing the solicitor to
oppose the application of the Ontario
Vest Shore Electric Railway
any to to Parliaument for the passing of
x11 .1ct, with other things, extening
for a )'ext the thole fur the expendi-
ture of fifteen per cent. of the amount
of the capital stock and eateuding for
two years the time within which the
railway must be completed and in
operation, an capitulation of what it is
the Railway Company is askiug, and
why it is asking it, is not out of place,
tie the council xysma to he laburieg
under the idea that the application to
I'arliament was fur wlwe'thing which
would he a contravention of the
bylaw which was voted on by the
r•ttelseyere of the town.
The clause in the bylaw which the
town council seemed to think the
Itailway Cowpony was seeking to
over -ride is clause 11, which ready as
follows :
"The work of budding the said road tram
Goderich to Kincardine shall hr ,•ommsucwi on
or before the that day of May. IaiK and be
continud with rearatable dispatch until it 6
completed,'
This clause, in fact the whole bylaw,
will still stand after the Act the
('uulpneny is asking for has been
passed.
The reason of the application will be
at once apparent when the clause of
the original Act, passed un May 14th.
11511, and the clause of the proposed"
Act air compared. They are as fol-
lows :
Act paused 11th 11.y, 1:1 6.
"And If toe rouaructia, of the railway i-
nto commenced and fifteen PSI (VOL of the
amount of the capn.tl stock la not expended
thereon within twoear...her the paring of
t hi. Act. or if the railway la not completed and
put in operation within four year, frau the
pa. -,lug of thin Act. then Ibe meet. insured
10 the need Company by the sant Art of Inc,),•
`,oration. and by the arld ameudidg Act., enol
by uhis,et. +hell Cease, and he null and void
am respects .o much of the railway as theta
remains uncompleted. -
1 •Iau,e 2 of proplysed Act.
The time for the ° mpletiwa otalhc whole
undenaklog referred to in the .aid Act of
Incorporation sod In this Act la hereby .x•
tended until the day of 1912, and the
time for the p s uaeut W fifteen prr cent. of the
amount of Um capital Rock of the said Comp -
•n. i, hereby extended to the lath day of May.
1le.
From the forwer of these it will be
seen that the two years from the
passing of the Art would be ups
May I Ith of this year and the' conten-
tion of the Compnay is that it would
be impassible to expend that amount,
which we ere advised would amount
to about *1150,11111. by the 1 nth of May.
11111. The proposed change in no way
contravenes the provision of the
bylaw passed in Ooderich requiring
the commencement of construction by
May let. Sirnilarly the time for the
completion of the work would expire
May 13th, 19111. and the application of
the Company is to have that extended
until Nene date in 1912.

the population of the world hes grown
from 640.000.000 to 1,000,000,000, an

so many hundreds of centuries, fn oth-
er words, there were In the world in
1800 only 640,000,000 of persose, and
In 106 years, from 1800 to 1906, to this
number had been added 900,000,0011.
