Lindsay, Bobcaygeon & Pontypool Ry.—At the same lime as the municipal elections were held recently by-laws granting bonuses to this enterprise were voted on & carried as follows:—Township of Harvey $3,000, Village of Bobcaygeon $11,000, Township of Verulam $14,000, Township of Ops $15,000, Town of Lindsay $25,000, Township of Manvers $5,000. In the township of Cartwright the municipal elections having been by acclamation only a small vote was polled, though there was a considerable majority for the bylaw, & an investigation is now being made to see if the necessary aggregate number of votes was polled. The municipalities mentioned above are all through which the proposed line would pass, & as they have all granted aid it is expected that the Co. will now proceed 10 finance the undertaking, & to make arrangements for starting construction.
