INNISâ€"SWBET Peterboro Renew: A quiet but pretty wedding was solemnized Wed- nesday afternoon, at the manse of St. Paul’s church, when Miss Elva Maud Sweet, formerly of Haliburton county, but latterly of Peterboro eras united in marriage to Mr. Samuel Innes, of Haliburton county. A num- ber of their immediate friends were present at the ceremony, at which the Rev. B. Pogue officiated. It begins to look now as 11' the new railway may probably cross the Gull River waters at Moore’s Falls, in the township of Lutterworth, from access by boat, provided the waters which point Minden woul'd have easy at Gull Lake are kept at a normal height, to permit a good sized steam launch to at all times pass over what is known as the “Rapids” at the outlet of Gull River. The survey started from the west and the chief engineer is reported as having found both a straight line, and one of very favorable grade so far, which is very necessary, as the road is to form part of a grain car- rying route.

Mr Lithgow examined the three cases which were shipped to a South Vern- lam farmer, and found that instead of tobacco they contained first class whiskey which was no doubt intend- ed to make merry during Easter tide.

Of {the wheat which reached New York in that year nearij: five million bushâ€" els, out of twelve million bushels, came in by canal, the greatest part of it by the Erie. The canals brought more than any one railway. The av- erage rate for transporting wheat from Bufialo to New York was a fraction over four cents a bushel, the distance being 500 miles. Upwards of fifty million dollars has been expend- ed on the construction of the pre- sent Erie canal, and another ninety millions is now being spent on its enlargement. Compare these figures with those for the Trent waterwav. It is 669 miles from Sault Ste Marie to Montreal by the Trent route, as against 1,094 from the Sault to New York by the Erie canal. The total saving between the Sault and Liver-‘ pool is over 700 miles. As there is only 20 miles of canal on the Trent route, as against 352 by the Erie, the saving in time is even greaterâ€"215a hours to New York, as against 107 to Montreal, -or 50 per cent. All the new portion of the Trent canal is building for 8 feet 4 inches draitf which means a capacity for barges of 750 tone, as against 240 tons on the Erie. It is estimated that grain can be ,carried from Midland to Montreal by the Trent route for two to two ‘ and a half cents a bushelâ€"as against; Sour cents on the Erie. One firm stat- ! ed to the government this year that , the completion of the Trent Canal would sheet a saving in freight for them of $60,080 per annum.
