The agriculture which settlers are compelled to adopt in the bush is not of a kind to which Agricultural Science can very well adapt itself; though it is astonishing in how few years a settlement is cleared up. stumps got rid of, good fences built. improved dwellings and barns erect- ed, and modern appliances to lessen labour one by one introduced. Many examples might be named. where ten years have changed an uninhabited forest to fine farms, with thrifty Canadian husbandry, improved im- plements, well-bred stock, with ease and competence. The establishment of County and Township Agricultural Societies has done much to promote farming interests; and every year is produced, not only a larger quantity, but generally speaking a better qual- ity of the various agricultural pro ducts. Ten or twelve years ago. 10,000 bushels of spring wheat was about the largest amount annually shipped from Owen Sound. Now the quantity is about 200,000 bushels. According to the Census Reports, the amount of spring wheat produced in Grey in 1860, was 718,148 bushels; full wheat, 43,731 bushels; barley, 26,261 bushels; pea e, 140,165 bushels; oats, 367,350 bushels; potatoes, 544.419 bushels; turnips, 1,022.91?) bushels; nay, 20,884 tons; wool. 58.187 lbs ; pork. 8,057 barrels; to these figures. if correct at the time, it would be safe to add now ‘2?) or 30 per cent.; but from scarel’ul compar- ison of the returns in other depart- ments where data exists to judge by, we are led to believe these figures are considerably below the mark The culture of {all wheat has been very much extended since the date of the census. Manufactures are always slow to take root in a new County. The great requisites, motive power. capi- tal. facility of obtaining raw material and for exporting manufactured pro- ducts. are seldom all found in conjunction in the newer parts of the country. In Grey, there is abund- ance of water-power. Under their appropriate heads wili be found descriptions of ten different rivers. on every one of which are water- privileges more or less numerous and extensive. No County in Upper Canada exhibits more water-power in close proximity to navigable water, than Grey And we note the fact that by far the larger portion of it is unemployed. The manufactures of Neustadt and Clarksburg have risen into import. ance during the last five years; Mt. Forest during the last eight years; and within the last three years. iron manufacture in Owen Sound has, from comparative insignificance. at- tained its present proportions. The attention of the manufacturer and the capitalist is requested, in the _iollowing pages. to the many open- ’ings for profitable enterprise, in the various townships and villages ol the County. Saw-mills are numerous; but being a hardwood County, Grey will never have any lumber to export. Grist- mills are latterly greatly increased in number; and merchant tlouring. for export, is becoming an important branch of manufacture. whose field‘ of extension is almost limitless. Iron manufacture, from the facility of obtaining iron from Montreal and coal from' Lake Erie, without trano- shipment, presents peculiar advant- ages. There are three important foundries in. Owen Sound. a very extensive one in Durham. beside three or four in other places. Wool manufacture might be profitably (Continued From Lu: Week.) AGRICULTURE. MANUFACTURES. FORTY YEARS AGO. .engaged in to ten times its present ‘exteut. Wool growing in Grey, as (it will always prove itself in an up- 'land, rolling, limestone country, is {found to he a very profitable and isuccessl’ul branch of rural economy. Clarksburg takes the lead in woollen manufacture. There are several ex- .tensive tanneries in the County ; and ‘where hemlock bark and lfides are so easily obtained, an article of such universal consumption as leather ought to be very largely manufac- . tux’ed. From the Census Report of 1861, we glean the following figures. They are without doubt much below the truth; but we give them in prefer- ence to giving no figures respecting the domestic manufactures of the County. The returns of ” Mills andi Manufactories ” are so glaringlv de-‘ fective, that it would only be misâ€" leading the reader to introduce them. For instance, only four grist and flouring mills are set down for the County. although it contained then about twenty; only two woollen factories and carding and fulling mills. although it could show seven or eight; no loundries, although there were four or five; and no fan- ningniill factories. although there were two well‘established {aetories in Owen Sound alone. Distinct from the returns of mills and factories, we find the following figureszâ€"Fulled cloth, 10.22?) yards; flannel, 43,731 yards; flax and hemp. 1,571 lbs; maple Sugar. 194,117 lbs; butter, 591.1551bs; cheese, 37.441 lbs.

' one hundred and eighty miles of gravel. road were constructed in the County, in one grand scheme, at an expense of about 3300.000. That so large an extent of road~making was undertaken at once, was due to the fact that the sanction of the rate- payers in the several localities, could only be obtained to a scheme which ,brought some benefit to their own 'neighborhood: and so the attempt was made to suit every portion of the County. Their are four roadsâ€"- the Garafraxa Road. running north and south, between Owen Sound and Mount Forest; the Toronto Line, running diagonally across the County N. W. and S E ; the Durham Road, running across the Cbunty E. and S. W., a little 8. of the centre; and the Northern Road, from the County Line near Collingwood Harbor to Owen Sound, and thence westward toward Saugeen to the County limits. Notwithstanding ail the criticisms expended on alleged extravagance and mismanagement in the construc- tion of the roads. and their inferior quality when made. both of whic‘. charges are doubtless to some extent true, the great fact remains that this system of roads has reached almost every man’s doorâ€"that it has Opened up new markets and new routes of trafficâ€"that it has added to the value of farms in the townshipsâ€"that it has added to the market price of the farmer’s produce, by allowing him to take larger loads. and'allowing the Country Trader to send his grain more speedily and economically to market ;â€"and the special glory ol the County of Grey is. that she has not a toll-gate within her limits! A year ago three roads were divided among the various Township Muni- cipalities. whose duty it now is to keep them in repair.

MAGISTRATES.â€"The list of County Magistrates will be found in connecâ€" tion with their respective towns or townships. There are two, however. who though residing outside the limits of the County, are neverthe- less Justices of the Peace for Grey, and whose names if not placed here, would not otherwise he noted. We refer to WM. BULL and Janna ALLEN. Esquires, both of the township of Amabel. In making up our list of Magistrates. we have taken all names found upon the last Commission of the Peace, as furnished by the Clerk of the Peace for the County; paying no attention to the number who have or who have not “ qualified.” It’s a microbe that floats in the air, gets into the throat and lungs, de- velops rapidly. excites inflammation, c.
