Last -winter Mr. Boys came tothe lots and threatened Hamilton with proceedings at law if he would not give up his possession and improvements ;. he added that he would fence him (Hamilton) in and prevent intercourse with him. Hamilton being poor and unable to defend himself at law` _ was forced into Mr. Boys terms`, which were to surrender his lot, house and improvements,-and to accept another lot, with one quarter of an acre, of his own -in vlieugof them_;aud which equivalent Hamilton considers of not one-fourth the value of the property taken from him." _ ' `The lotstaken up by Mr.-Boys, in the names of other persons, and to the hindrance of` actual set- tlers, are given; and theynumber about one hun- dred, In every instance the salegto Boys is recom- mended to be `cancelled, " and the claim of the settler allowed.

The Commissioners in their report detail a `few cases of hardship and injustice,` the strict truth of which were estab-V _lished beyond, reasonable d_onbts;f and from which we will take, the liberty of making a` few extracts for the benet of Mr. Boys, who,.judging from his letter, is probably unacquainted with his celebrity, or perhaps was too .modest to notice it I himself. The first `case in which he guresjs that of _Job Irwin, who, as a settler, wished to purchase Lot No. 1, Concession A., Howick. He -wrote to the Agent on the 21st of August, 1854, stating that he had made improvements, wished to be considered the first applicant, and to be in- formed when the township would beopened for sale.` He was told in reply the timerwheu the land would be open for sale, and was advised to be present. The report goes on to say: John Irwin being at the time unable to go Goder- A ich `himself, sent his brother, with the first instal- ` meat; but before he `could get into the office he "was informed that the lot had been sold in the *name,of Peter Robinson, but in reality to Mr. V , Boys of Barrie, there being no such man as Peter Robinson there.

This will be apparent on an examination ofthe several statements attached, which show that, although the tonnage of freight of all rlnsses, as-compared with-the year 1858, has . increased by 12,8'21t'ons, the mileage ofetrains has been diminished 9,982 miles, whilst the -total cost of operating and management "has been decreased to-the arnouut of $58,777 56. To this and other measures of economy. in" management (throughout the departments of ' the Company s.serv'ic_e) is .to be attributed the result that, although the total earnings of the year 1859 was in consequence of the. tempo- mrydepression in trade, less than that of the (year previous. the ~ net! revenue has been augmented bythe sum of . $58,859 92.. qmn -;{....!...A _t' ..
