J. ‘ Marsh, Esq.. took up 400 acres of wild land adjoining the northern boundary of the town-plot of Thom- bury ; with aroaring stream pursuing its headlong way through his domain. ‘ In 1856 he settled on his land, and saw mill. and a few houses. In 1859. W. A. Clark purchased of him a water privilege on the Beaver River. with 95 acres of land attached. Mr. Clark made immediate preparations “or building his woollen mills, and a rresidence for himself. In 1860. John Tyson came in. and purchased of Mr. Clark water privilege and land“for al flouring mill. The flouring mill was put in operation in January. l861, I and the woollen factory in October ' ,of the same year. The parties who i owned the ground adjoining.-â€"W. 'I‘. Marsh. W. A. Clark, and A. J. Whit- ney,â€"-oflered every facility to parties wishing to settle in the new village; and soon stores. inns, and mechanics’ sheps began to make their appearance in the new Village, as yet without a name. The inhabitants .wished it called Clarksville, after the enter- prising proprietor of the wcollen works; but P. O. authorities seem of late yeais to have set their faces against any more villes, and so they compromised the matter by establish; _--.-A Uvmy. Villlvv“ .--v ing a P. 0. under the nune of CLARKSBURG. At first it was merely a sub-office in connexion with Thorn- bury. but for a. your past it has been independent, and receives daily mails from Collingwood. Clarkshurg is alittle overa mile from Georgian Bay, having only the town-plot of Thornhury (a square block of 900 acres) between it and the shore. The population is nearly 200. The whole place, as it stands, is the result of four years’ enter- prise. It is fortunate for the present and future interests of the village. _ ._ -_..l I-.Lnnn H urn 3;: itwsvt‘ehief men and fathers ” are men of such stability of character, enterprise and perseverance. The “Northern Woollen Mills,"â€" W. A. Clark. Esq.. Proprietor,â€" were, as already stated, put in oper- ation in 1861. They are intended [or two sets of manufacturing ma- chines; and will work up, when all completed. 80,000 lbs. wool per anuum. The main building, which is iour-and-a-half storeys high, stands 34:62 feet on the ground. A sheepskin factory is attached, finish- ed in 1864. At present the pelts are exported in pickle to the United States; but Mr. Clark intends, as soon as arrangements to that end can be completed, to have them dressed on the premises. About 20 hands are employed in the various depart- ments of the works. Custom carding and falling is likewise attended to. 'I‘weeds, lulled cloths. beaver cloths, blankets, flannels, c., are all manu- factured. and are now known allover the Province. Mr. Clark has filled some very large orders during the last two years, for Montreal. Toronto and Hamilton wholesale houses. Fvl‘ this trade, his twilled scarlet flannels and checks are in special request. The establishment of the Northern Woollen Mills has greatly stimulated the growth of wool in the county.

There isa spate water privilege above the mills, and two privileges below, where the whole volume of the Beaver River could be made available; and at least 3 other privileges in the village, supplied from the surplus water, which is very abundant. averaging . about half the force of the stream.
