It was { therefore evident that some means must | be adopted to bring the 'influence of this compact body of members to bear in our favour, and as soon as I made up my mind what was the best course to pursue, | I did wot lose a moment in following it up. A railroad from Montreal to Ottawa, through the French country, north of the | Ottawa river, Las long been desired by | the Prench in-habitants ; but Cartier, who {is the salaried solicitor of the Grand | Trunk read to which this would be an | op position; has interposed difficulties, and by his inflnence prevented its being | its being built. The same reason made | him desirous of giving vhe eontract for | the Canada Pacific into, shea ids of par- connected with! the Grand Trunk | Railway, and | to this 'end he | fanned the flame of oppesition t, us; but I saw in this French railroad scheme and in the near approach of the general elections; as others had to go to their constituents | for re-election, a sure means of attaning | object, especially as I proposed to carry it | through to the terminus of the Pacific. | The plaus I propose are in themselves the | best for the interests of the Dominion, and | in urging them to the public I am. really | doing a most patriotic action. But even | in that view, meansqnnst be used in in- fluence the public. 1 employed | several young French lawyers to] {write it up in their news. | papers. 1 subscribed a controlling influence in the stock, and proceded to subsidize | the Hewspapers themselves, both editors and proprietuts. 1 wemt to the country through which the road would pass, and called on many of the inhabitauts; I visit- ed the priests and made friends of them, {and 1 employed agents to go among the prircipal people and talk it up.

He | then agre:d to give the contract as re- | quired, in sway that there would be seven- | teen provisional directors, of which On- | tario would have eight and we nine, theré- by giving us the control. ® We at once | proceeded to organize the Company, and they named me President, D.

We have advertised that the books for subscription of stock will be opened on the 15th" Jaly at the different | places named 'in the Act, and we have | notified the Government we aro willing to take the contract for building the Canada | Pacific Railway on the terms and condi- | tions prescribed in the Act. The mext thing to be done is to subscribe stock, which must be done by British subjects oity, and ten per cent of the subscription must be paid in eash at the time of sub- scribing. We have the right of subscrib- ing nine-seventeenths at present, and of taking up whetever the other party may not subscribe at the endvf the month.
