Streets, etc.-â€"The (iaralraxa Road, in its passage through the town. takes the name of the “Main St.” Main St. is about a mile long. and contains all the merchant shops and chief places ot business. The major- ity of the buildings are of wood; though manv neat brick buildings are now seen. Excellent bricks are made at the t0p of the Main St. Main St. needs grading and gravelling; an improyement which the new village corporation will doubtless immediate- ly take in hand. Following this will come the making of sidewalksâ€"as yet imperfect. East of Main St. (on the Egremont side of the town) are Fergus and Egremont Ste. parallel with the principal street; and on the west or Normanby side are Elgin and Normanby St., likewise parallel with Hain St. The cross streets are short, and as yet unimportant, with the exception of Queen St., which forms the county line, and eXtends out into the country in both directions. The bridge over the Saugeen on Main BL. is the only bridge 0! importance in the municipality.

Int-orporation, c.-Al,ont a gear ago steps \vere taken to have the place incorporated as a village. Ly' ing as it does in two counties. there was. ae might be eXpo-cted. a differ- ence of opinion as to w hich county it was most expedient to he attached. A vote taken by the direcrion of the Co. L‘ouneil of tirev. in the latter part of 1‘64. resulted in a majority of 30 in favor of connection with Grey; but. it “as t‘laimed that the. result of the municrpal elections in January, 1865. neutralized that vote. as three ccunmllors out of five were rttnrned favorable, to Wellington. Mean- while, first the Wellington County Council, and then that of Grey, nev- erally. by by-law, attached Mount Forest to their respective counties. The question was therefore left to‘ the Governoroin-Conncil to decide. and by proclamation to give legal betice of the deciaion.
