The Township of Woolwich is bounded on the North by the Township of Peel, in the County of Wellington ; on the East by the Township of Maryborough, in the County of WeIngton ; on the South by the Township af Waterloo; and on the West by the Township of Wellesley. The land in this Township is of excellent quality, timbered principally with hardwood. There are four or five black ash and cedar swamps. The Township is well watered, having the Grand River on the East, and te Conestogo on the West ; the surface is generally hilly, and the soil a stiff loam intermixed with gravel. The farms are becoming well improved, and the farm housea are of a superior class. A portion of this Township, or about 45,195 acres, was granted by the Crown in June, 1807, to one William Wallace, who disposed of the entire block to Augustus Jones, John and Jacob Erb, trustees for the German Company, the members of whom formed the first settlers of this section. A remarkable illustration of the difficulties attending the proper conveyance of real estate in this as in all new countries is presented in connection with this portion of the Township. Wallace, in conveying to the German Company through their agents, oinitted to supply the bar to the dower of Mrs. Wallace. It waa only in the year 1859, or fifty-two years after the original conveyance, that the omission waa noticed, or steps taken under the dower to exact a consideration or a division of the property. In the year named, the heirs-at-law of Wallace took steps t,o enforce their claim ; those steps had the effect of intimidating a few into an adjustment of the differences, and compromises followed. Emboldened thus, the possession of the remainder of the large settlement was attacked, and with some show of success. At this juncture, in the interest of hia co. stituents, and for the wellbeing of a large and important section, the Hon. M. H. Foley, who represented the North Riding of Waterloo in Parlianient, interposed, and, 'curling his personal efforts in conjunction with his legal abilities, succeeded, not without much trouble, and at considerable personal expense, in procuring the passage through the Legislature of a bill quieting all titles, and giving perfect repose, to the entire settlement. The Township contains the following villages, viz. ; St. Jacub's, Conestogo, Winterbourne, and Elmira.

Galt bas been called the " Manchester of Canada," on account of the extent and excellence of its manufactures, and its unequalled water power. There is probably not another town in the province of similar size, which has entered more extensively into manufacturing industry. Beneath is given a brief notice of some of the principal establishments. THE DICKSON MILLS. These excellent mills were built in 1843, and are now (-arried on by NIr. Richard Blain. The main building is stone 75 x 1:) feet, and four stories high. The machinery has recently been re-newed and put in first class order. The reputation of the Dickson mills stands high in the eastern markets, and its flour commands the highest price. THE AXE FACTORY. This establishment consists of a forge, grinding shop, finishing shop, and carpenter shop. It is now carried on by W. L. Distill, Esq. A large number of men are employed, and the axes and edge tools turned TOWN OF GALT. JOIEIN FLEIVIING, WHOLESALE AN!)

At several of the provincial fairs, prizes have been taken for the best case of edge tools, and at the great exhibition held in Paris, France, its edge tools carried off the first premiurn! The European manufacturers are said to have expressed no little surprise that such superior articles couhl have been made amidst Canada's wild woods. CABINET WARE. We have two steam cabinet factories in Galt-that of 111r. John Barbour, on -North Water strcet, and that of :llr. Andrew Malcolm, on West Main street. Both shops turn out a large quantity of furniture annually, from the most substantial patterns to those of a more light and elegant form. DUl11F1tII:S r'ou\1)rt. The Dumfries iron and brass fitundrv, so long and successfully carried on by James Crombie, Esq., is well-known throughout Western Canada. 1leasry. Goldic, McCulloch C Co., are now the proprietors. The buildings are of stone, and very extensive, and although a large number of workmen are employed, the foundry is taxed to its uttermost to supply its patrons. Its business consists principally in making steam engines, fitting up flour and saw mills, making French burr millstones, &c. The enterprising proprietors are just completing the machinery for the new Great Western Railwav rolling mille at liamilton-which was a very large contract. The machinery of the Dumfries houndrr has found its way to Cuba, California and other distant parts of the world. WOOLEN FACTORIES. Gait can boast of three large woolen factories. The largest is ow ned by Air. Win. Robinson, and is driven partly by steam and partly by water pon er. The buildings are commodious, and the machinery good. About twenty operatives are constantly employed. Thompson & Co., carry on the factory at the head of North Water street. Tweeds are the principal production, but occasionallv doeskins, blankets and stocking yarn are made. R. Patrick & Co., on North Water street, have also done a large woollen busiueer. These factories are a credit to the locality. MALT FACTORY. The manufacture of malt is carried on to a large extent by Mr. TOWN OF G_1I,1'. 125' LUTZ & Co., IROIN FOUNDERS AND.`^GI^ICUL''UI^:11: 1 ^IPI-1;:^1 ^:^T MAA.X-K3M3FL,%" `JV\l'F:1('Tf'Rlati u1 ' T`' KE: NL OST&P PRO V E.

CARRIAGES AND WAGONS. The Victoria Steam Carriage Works, have been leased b y Mr. Win. Robinson, Mr. Thomas Todd acting as manager. Besides carriages, wagons, and buggies, etc., they make spokes, hubs, felloes, S.c., by machinery. The manager informs us that they turn out about M,000 worth of work per annum. They rrcentlv made two splendid carriages for a gentleman in the West Indics. :11r. James Bny, North Water street, makes excellent work, and does a large business in thie line. DIIMFRIES MILLS. These old and w ell-kuow n Flouring Mills are now owned by llr. Thomas Stuart. There are seven run of stones in all, and when in complete running order the mills turn out nearly 200 barrels of flour daily. During a single year they have made 30,000 barrels, a number w hich speaks flatteringly of the capabilities of the establishment. These Inillr have rendered Dumfries w heat and flour celebrated in all the principal marts along the Atlantic seaboard. VICTORIA FOUNDRY. This Foundry is carried on by Lutz & Co., and has been in operation over twenty years. The firm principally di rect their attention to horsepowcrs and separators, reapers and mowers, ploughs and stoves. They employ about thirty men, and their business extends over a large extent of country. SOAP AND C A N llles. Mr. Adam S. Oliver carricb on the manufacture of soap and candlee, on West Main street. About 80,000 lbs. of common soap, as well as a large quantity of candies, are made each year. Fancy soaps are made to a small extent. TANNERIES. There are two tanneries, both steam-po wer, recently started. Tha t carried on by O. Billings & Co. is one of the largest and most complete tanne ries in Canada. The buildings are very large. About twenty workmen are employed, and the leather manufactured, first-class.

From the above brief, and necessarily imperfect sketch of Galt, st will be seen to be a town of much importance. Most branches of business are in a healthy and prosperous state. During the financial crisis, a fetv years ago, few places in Canada withstood the.tornadc better than Galt did. Within the past two years its population has been gradually increasing ; and ehould its important manufacturing interests continue to grow and pmsper, the title of "Manchester of Canada" may not (sound so extravagant in twenty years from now.
