BY KIND PERMISSION, GAZETTEER OF BRITISH NORTH AMERICA gjjedtated TO HIS EXCELLENCY THE RIGHT HONORABLE ISarl MuUzxin anir anantrefiose, BRITISH AMBASSADOR AT CONSTANTINOPLE, LATE GOVERNOR GENERAL OF THE DOMINION OF CANADA, •BY HIS LORDSHIP'S most humble and obedient servants, The Publishers. INTRODUCTION. The marked success which attended the publication of Lovell's Gazetteer of British North America, in 1871, has induced the publishers to undertake the issue of a revised edition, and they have now much pleasure in presenting it to the public. This Gazetteer will fully show the rapid strides made throughout the Dominion within the past ten years. Great care has been exercised in collecting information, and every place known is given. The Gazetteer will be found to contain over fifteen hundred more places and over eight hundred more Lakes arid Eivers than were given in the first edition. A publication of this kind necessarily involves a large expenditure, but the publishers feel assured they will not be at a pecuniary loss in their effort to let the people of Canada know something of their great country. The Publishers. PKEFACE, A Gazetteer of British North America, containing reliable information touching the climatic conditions of the different Provinces, the relative fertility of their soils, the vast improvements made in agriculture, commerce and trade, modes of travel and transportation, mining and educational interests, and embodying in a compact form aU the outer facts, geographical, topographical, statistical and mercantile of every section of British North America, has become an acknowledged necessity ; and such a work will doubtless be gladly welcomed by the people of this continent, and by the commer cial, manufacturing and emigrating classes of Great Britain and the continent of Europe, and recognized as an indispensable companion and guide by the crowds of tourists, travellers, sea-side excursionists and sportsmen who are tempted in search of health or pleasure, information or profit, to visit the sea-side resorts fringing the line of the "Intercolonial;" the romantic mountain-girt shores of Gasp^ and Labrador; the celebrated gold fields and coal mines of Nova Scotia and British Columbia ; the famed salmon rivers of the Lower St. Lawrence and New Brunswick ; the inexhaust ible fisheries of Newfoundland and Cape Breton ; the fair and fertile plains of Prince Edward Island ; the rich copper and silver mines of Lakes Huron and Superior ; and the Province of Manitoba, Keewatin, and great valley of the Saskatchewan. The utility of a work of this kind, drawing its facts from original and authentic sources, treating on a variety of topics, all of them of interest, many of them novel and heretofore unnoticed, becomes the more evident when the increasing intercourse be tween the different provinces and the growing commerce between the Dominion and other countries are taken into account. The nature and extent of the labor involved in the preparation of this Gazetteer may be inferred from the fact that there are 7,500 Cities, Towns, Villages and Places within the Dominion of Canada and Newfoundland ; that each of the 7,500 had to be Classed in alphabetical order ; the geographical position described ; the railway or steam boat connections, postal or telegraphic facilities, distance from important centres ¦ also the manufacturing, mining, agricultural, shipbuilding and fishery industries ; and the population, as far as it could possibly be obtained. Also, that the locality and extent of over 1,500 Lakes and Rivers had to be described. The Gazetteer is classed under three heads : First, the Table of Routes ; second the Cities, Towns, Villages, Settlements, Counties and Provinces ; and third, the Lakes' and ' Rivers. The first is of itself an intrinsic part of the work. It shows the proximity f the railway stations, and the sea, lake and river ports to every city, town, villas °* settlement, in British North America, thus informing the reader how he raav & ii any desired place without unnecessary delay. reach Preface. 7 The minuteness of the details and the fulness of the information embodied in the Gazetteer can best be illustrated by the following extracts ;— AMHERST, formerly known as FORT LAWRENCE, a seaport town of Nova Scotia, the capital of Cumberland co., very pleasantly situated at the head of Chignecto Bay, and on the Intercolonial railway, 9 miles from Sackville, N. B., and 138 miles W. by N. of Halifax. It contains, besides the county and railway buildings, 23 stores, 6 churches, 4 hotels, several mills and factories, an iron foundry, 2 tanneries, 2 printing offices issuing weekly newspapers, a telegraph office, and a branch bank. It has two public halls and four society halls, and also a very fine driving park. It is a port of entry, has a large trade, especially in lumber and shipbuilding, and is noted for its extensive and productive marsh lauds, which furnish excellent pasturage. Pop. 3000. AMHERSTBURG, an incorporated town iu Essex co. , Ont, on the Detroit River, 5 miles above its junction with Lake Erie, and at the western terminus of the Canada Southern railway, 18 miles from Windsor. It was at one time a garrison town, and was called Maiden, the name of a fortress in the town. It contains a court house, a lunatic asylum, 5 places of worship, several saw and grist mills, an iron foundry, about 25 stores, 5 hotels, and a telegraph office. Amherstburg is a port of entry. Steamers run daily between here aud Detroit. , Pop. 1936. Amherst in Nova Scotia and Amherstburg in Ontario, two towns of nearly equal populatiou, rapidly rising iu importance as shipping and manufacturing communities, are selected at random from classification A of the Gazetteer to show the care with which statistical materials incident to each locality have been collected and utilized. These towns, situated more than a thousand miles apart, exhibit iu a striking light the vast extent of the conf ederated portions of the British North American possessions, while the returns of factories, stores, mills and rail and steamboat couneetipns, demon strate their marvellous progress in all those elements of wealth and population which constitute the true basis of national strength. There is one especial advantage enjoyed by those who relate events or transactions, or any incidents recorded in the earlier annals of this continent : because the chief actors are individualized, their deeds officially registered, and critical contemporaries have depicted in lively colors those memorable events which form chronological laud- marks in the history of Canada, whereas the earliest accounts of the origin and growth of the old world races are involved in the mists of antiquity, and fabulous legends assign superhuman qualities to mythical and pre-historic heroes. The Sagas of Iceland, dating back more than five centuries before Gaspar Corteral, in 1500, entered the Gulf of St. Lawrence, recount how adventurous Northmen discovered this continent, founded the colony of Vinland, and maintained intercourse with it down to the beginning of the twelfth century, though no trace of their occupation can be discovered, and Vinland is capriciously assigned to the shores of Massachusetts, Labrador, and Newfoundland ; but it is a well attested fact that in 1535 Jacques Cartier landed at the Indian village of Hochelaga, explored the St. Lawrence as far as the foot of the Lachine rapids, aud ascended the mountain of Montreal, where, after the fashion of the age, he planted a cross. Thus to France undoubtedly belongs the honor of having made the first dis covery of the St. Lawrence. In subsequent years bands of stout-hearted and self-sacri ficing Frenchmen, conspicuous for their fortitude and stoical endurance, exposed their lives fearlessly in adventurous explorations extending from Hudson's Bay to the Great Lakes, and thence down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico. The earliest settlement attempted at Quebec dates 1608 ; only 273 years have there- 8 Preface. fore elapsed between the epoch when the first settler, under manifold discouragements, planted himself iu Canada, and to-day when the Queen of England claims jurisdiction over the most extensive colony iu the world, inhabited by upwards of four millions of active, enterprising, and self-reliant people, confederated under the ambitious title of the dominion of Canada, which consists of upwards of four millions of geographical square miles, extending from the Atlantic on the east to the shores of the Pacific on the west. Its extreme breadth on the parallel of 49° north latitude is 3,066 geographical miles, and the greatest depth from the most southern point of the Province of Ontario to Smith's Sound in the Polar regions rather more than 2,150 miles. It was said of Canada, when the provinces of Upper and Lower Canada comprised her entire territory, that, with the exception of coal and a few of the less important * metals, she contained within herself a supply of almost all the known useful minerals, not only amply sufficient for her domestic consumption, but, with few exceptions, for permanent, profitable and extensive commerce. Again, at the great Exhibition of 1851, at London, the jury were pleased to state, " that of all the British Colonies, Canada is " that whose exhibition is the most interesting and complete, and one may eveu say " that it is superior, as far as the mineral kingdom is concerned, to all countries that ''have forwarded their productions to the Exhibition." Canada has since grown from two Provinces iuto a Dominion, thereby acquiring the gold and coal mines on the At- ' lantic and Pacific coasts, aud the enormous coal areas of the North West. Little is yet known as to the extent of the mineral deposits throughout nine-tenths of the territory included within the line of the Dominion, but evidence has been obtained to warrant the belief that these sources of wealth exist in inexhaustible quantities aud include every variety found on the continent of Europe. The coal miues of Nova Scotia may for centuries to come supply the demands of the marine of England, while capacious har bors like Halifax afford ample and secure anchorage for the largest navies. Along the line of the American coast, stretching from the Isthmus of Panama to Behring's Island, a distance of three thousand miles, few harbors equal, and none are superior to those found iu British Columbia ; hence the coal measures of Vancouver Island and the Sas katchewan acquire additional importance, and must become of incalculable value when the commerce of the Dominion with Japan, China, and the Australian colonies as sumes larger dimensions. The vast regions belonging to the British Crown, extending from Lake Superior to the Pacific Ocean, averaging six hundred miles in width by two thousand miles in length, are adapted to the uses of the agriculturalist, and are capa- ' ble of supporting a greater number of the human race than can to-day be found in France, Germany, and Switzerland combined. Every variety of soil and climate offers itself. British Columbia revels in the enjoyment of a Devonshire temperature, while, up to sixty degrees of north latitude, the seasons, owing to the warm winds of the Pacific, are more genial than those of Sweden or Norway. Vetches, which remain juicy during winter, and the enduring bunch grass, as nourishing as the pastures of England, cover vast prairies, while the abundance of buffaloes and the facility with which horses and cattle find food throughout the year, and fatten and multiply, are facts which attest the nutritious nature of the natural grasses. This magnificent country watered by majestic streams, stored with mineral treasures, known as the Saskatchfr wan Valley, so called after the celebrated river which descends from the Rocky Moun tains to Lake Winnipeg, is noted for the extent and richness of its coal measures. Rich beds of pure economic coal twelve to twenty-four feet iu thickness, and iron ore in vast quantities in the same strata, extend from the Coal Rapids, Saskatchewan River, to the Preface. 9 Rocky Mountains, a distance nearly double that between Loudon and Edinburgh, while from two hundred miles north of the Saskatchewan coal deposits, to the Arctic, about 70° of lat. N., Mackenzie discovered bitumen in a fluid state, petroleum, and coal strata. On the banks of Slave River, a branch of the Mackenzie, numerous bitumin ous springs abound ; in fact, the region skirting the eastern flank of the Rocky Moun tains, ascending many degrees of latitude from 49° to 70° North, gives indications of inexhaustible stores of coal and other minerals, including gold, while the virgin sur face soil is of exuberant fertility. Heretofore Canada has been to the traveller little better than a cul de sac, as he could only journey as far as the extremity of Lake Superior ; but when our great Canadian Pacific railway now in course of construction is completed, and the entire Dominion can be traversed from the Atlantic to the Pacific, he will be enabled with ease to take a rapid survey of these wide-spreading dominions belonging to the British Crown, and measure their political aud commercial importance. He will then become convinced that the Dominion is rich in coal measures, slate quarries, gold, silver, copper, iron, and- almost every mineral of commercial value ; that the climate is favorable to health ; and that there are millions of acres of grain-raising and pasture lands awaiting colonization in the fertile belt of the North West and British Columbia. The Provinces and Territories included within the Dominion are : Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, British Columbia, Manitoba, Keewatin, and the Nortli West Territories ; and in the Gazetteer will be found, fn alphabetical sequence, carefully prepared summaries of their earlier records ; with descriptions of their gradual growth in population and wealth, enriched with statistics, drawn from authentic sources, embracing topics calculated to interest the reader. It is alike a duty and a pleasure on the.part of the publisher to return his grateful thanks to the following gentlemen who were kind enough to revise and correct proof* descriptive of those Provinces of the Dominion with which they are familiar : \ Most Rev. Robert Machray, D.D., Metropolitan of Rupert's Land. Most Rev. Alex Tache, D.D., Archbishop of St. Boniface, Manitoba. The late Hon. Joseph Howe, Lieutenant Governor of Nova Scotia. Herbert Crosskill, Esq., Deputy Provincial Secretary of Nova Scotia. Hon. Thomas Glen, late Receiver General of Newfoundland. Hon. Thomas Talbot, Member of the Legislative Council, Newfoundland. Hon. B. R. Stevenson, late Surveyor General of New Brunswick. Hon. Joseph Royal, M.P. for Provencher, Manitoba. Hon. George A. Walkem, Premier of British Columbia. Lieutenant-Colonel Sydney Bellingham, late M.P. for Argenteuil. J. Geo. Hodgins, Esq., LL.D., P.R.G.S., Deputy Superintendent of Education, Ontario. Andrew Russell, Esq., late Assistant Commissioner of Crown Lauds, Ontario. E. E. Tache, Esq., Assistant Commissioner of Crown Lands, Quebec. Malcolm McLeod, Esq., Aylmer, Que. And the Postmasters of the Dominion. The publisher refers especially to the value of the services rendered by the above gentlemen, and gladly acknowledges Mr. P. A. Crossby's judicious compilation and classification of the matter, and the unremitting industry he displayed in consulting records, collating authorities, and moulding into shape the topographical, statistical, and historic materials of the Gazetteer. It would be an act of presumption on the part of the publisher to pretend to collect 10 Preface. all the information which it is requisite to embody in a Gazetteer, without availing himself of the copious and authentic stores of valuable data collected and given to the world by geological and topographical explorers, aud inquisitive and investigating travellers. It is therefore his agreeable duty to acknowledge that, in the execution of his work, he has availed himself largely of the abundant material furnished by Sir W. E. Logan's valuable Geological Map of British North America, and the Annual Re ports of the Geological Survey of Canada, instituted in 1843, and carried on under the direction of Sir William E. Logan, LL.D, F.R.S., F.G.S., for years the renowned chief of the Geological Department of Canada ; and also the following authors, whose works have been consulted with advantage : The British Dominions in North America ; or. a Topographical and Statistical Description of the Provinces of Lower and Upper Canada.

From Selkirk the Canada Pacific is in running order eastward to Tyndall, 8 ; Beausejour, 16 ; Whitemouth, 41 ; Rennie, 61 ; Telford, 75 ; Cross Lake, 77 ; Ingolf, 83 ; Kalmar, 91 ; Lake Deception, 98 ; Ostersund, 103 ; Rat Portage (Keewatin) IIS miles. From Winnipeg westward the road is in operation to Portage la Prairie, 70 miles; and the rails are laid to within a few miles of the western boundary of the province of Man itoba. From the boundary, the line, as projected, takes a north-westerly course to the Little Saskatchewan, from whence there is a choice of two lines : the one crossing the Assiniboine at the mouth of Shell River, the other crossing the same river near the mouth of the Qu'Ap- pelle ; thence, in either case, taking a north-westerly course to a common point near the South Saskatchewan ; thence to " The Elbow " of the North Saskatchewan, and following the valley of the same to Battleford ; thence, between Battle River and the North, Sas katchewan, it crosses the latter north-east of Fort Edmonton ; thence by Lake St. Anne and across the Pembiiia and McLeod, reaching the valley of the Athabasca at the foot of the Rocky Mountains. Ascending this valley and the valley of the Miette it reaches the Yellow Head -Pass, and from that point follows the River Fraser to Tete .Taune Cache ; thence it descends the valley of the Albreda, and following the western bank of the Nonh Thompson passes Kamloops, and crosses the River Thompson at Savona, at the foot of Kamloops Lake. Running thence to Lytton, at the junction of the Thompson and Fraser, it crosses the Fraser a few miles below this point and follows the right bank of that river until it finally reaches the waters of the Pacific at Port Moody, Burrard Inlet. The total distance from Lake Nipissing to Port Moody may be approximately stated at 2627 miles. 26 Key to the Railroad and Steamboat Routes. 86— By Richelieu and Ontario Navigation Company's Steamers, daily,from MONTREAL westward to — Lachine 9 Meloche ville 24 St. Timothee 34 Valleyfield 42 Cornwall 82 94 Dickinson's Land ing Williamsburg 110 Matilda (Iroquois) 120 Prescott 130 Brockville 141 Gananoque 179 Kingston 198 Cobourg 395 Port Hope.. . 300 Darlington .... 320 Toronto 263 Hamilton 408 Connects with the Grand Trunk Railway at Lachine, Cornwall, Prescott, Brockville, Kingston, Port Hope, and Toronto ; St. Lawrence and Ottawa Railway at Prescott ; Brock ville and Ottawa Railway at Brockville; Midland Railway at Port Hope; Northern Rail way at Toronto, and Great Western Railway at Hamilton. 87.— By Ottawa River Navigation Company's Steamer's daily, from JL ACHINE westward to— Rigaud 39|L'Orignal 62 Cairillon 41 1 Montebello 75 Point Fortune 48 I Papineauville 80 Cushing 25 Brown's 81 Grenville 57 | Lamb's 86 St. Anns 18 Oka 27 Como 28 Hudson 29 Pointe aux Anglais 33 Thurso 92 Rockland 96 Buckin; ham. .. 103 Ea.-st Templeton 114 Ottawa 121 Connects with Grand Trunk at Lachine.

ANTICOSTI, an island lying directly in the mouth of the St. Lawrence, between the 49th and 50th degrees of latitude, nearly the same as that of the north of France, contains an area of 2,460,000 acres of land of the best quality, similar, said the late Sir William Logan, the eminent Canadian geologist, to the fine arable soil of Ontario, and the Genessee County, New York State; it possesses over 300 miles of sea coast, is about 140 miles long, and 35 miles broad in the widest part, with an average breadth of 27% miles. Anticosti is made mention of sb long ago as 1660, in the geographical folio work of the celebrated Ioyahst Dr. PeterHeylyn, known as " Cosmographia." He says that the proper name for the island is Natiscotee, which it is supposed was oorrupted by the Spaniards, who fished in and off the St. Lawrence at that period, to its present ap pellation. He reports that the island was then held by a tribe of Indians, who were exceedingly kind and friendly ¦ to such mariners as landed there. The fief of the island was granted by Louis XIV., about 1680, to Sieur Louis Joliet, as a recompense for his discovery of the mouths of the Mis sissippi ahd the Illinois, and other services rendered to his Government ; and it seems to have been held of so little account in its primitive state that here Charlevoix, writ ing about 1722, in his " Histoire du Canada," says that Joliet "would, perhaps, have pre ferred one of the smallest lordships in France." In La Houtan's "History of Canada" is a chart of the St. Lawrence, and a plan of the island, showing JoUet's Fort on the western flank. La lloutan was a French marine officer, and he mentions that Joliet was captured in his boat off the island by the English expedition against Quebec, in 1690, under Admiral Phips, but released after the failure of that expe dition. Mr. T. Aubury, who sailed with General Burgoyne's army in 1756, devotes three pages of his work, " Interior Travels through America," to the seal fisheries of Anticosti, and the method of catching these animals between the continent and the ad jacent islands. So much for the early records of Anticos ti. When the feudal system became abol ished, which had long prevailed under the French domination of Canada, there being no tenants on the island, the seigneur, or lord of his manor, became possessed of the whole soil in fee simple, since which time it has been held jointly by a variety of per sons, chief amongst whom are the Forsyth family. The title to this immense posses sion seems to have been fully acknowledged by the Parliament of Canada, as an act was passed in 1873 incorporating a company to develop the resources of the island. Anticosti slopes gradually from its ele- ANT Lovell's Gazetteer of [151] British North America. ANT vated northern coast to the grassy savannas which skirt the southern shore, and thus, in a great measure, the fertile portions of the country are protected from severe win ter winds. Its climate is very healthy, and it certainly is not severer than that of the other maritime provinces. The atmosphere is pure and clear, and free from fogs, which are so frequent on and around Newfound land. The winter's cold is considerably tempered by the waters of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and the heat of summer is, to a certain extent, moderated by the same in fluence. Vegetation progresses very rapid ly, and crops come to perfection in good season. The soil is of good quality, being a rich loam intermixed with limestone; valu able forests are to be found on the greater part of the island, and although the timber generally is not of the largest size, it is of a superior quality, and well adapted for ship building. The fisheries around the island, , which have been hitherto comparatively neg lected, are valuable and important. Speak ing of them Commander Lavoie, of La Cana- die7ine, in his report, in 1870. to the Domin ion Government, says : " This island is beginning to be frequented and settled by hardy fishermen, tempted by the desire of participating in its rich fisheries, which up to the last tew years were^ comparatively, unexplored. . . . The importance and value of its fisheries have increased along with the number of fishermen. The waters bordering on Anticosti are stocked with the same kinds as are to be met with on the south and north coasts of the St. Law rence." ' In his report for 1872 Commander Lavoie says : " Large shoals of herrings , visit its shores about the same time they repair to Pleasant Bay, Magdalen Islands. A schooner, from Prince Edward Island, caught last spring with the seine 1,100 bar rels of herrings in one day." He goes on to say: " The whole of Anticosti abounds with fish of all sorts, but harbors are scarce, even for fishing boats. Codfish on this coast are all large, and no finer are seen even on the Miscou and Orphan Banks." The number of fishermen frequenting its banks in creases every year. Even when codfish was a failure everywhere else in the Gulf, it did not fail at Anticosti. Halibut are so plentiful that 199 barrels were taken in one day. The seal fishery, which could be carried on here as well in winter as in summer, might be turned to profitable account, large numbers of these animals being visible during the former season, and thousands of them being observed in the summer and autumn at the entrance of almost all the bays and rivers, where they remain com paratively unmolested. Hunting on the island is of considerable value, though of far less importance tban its fisheries. The animals, whose skins are of marketable value, which are found on the island, are black bears, which are very abundant, otters, martens, and the silver, grey, red, black, and, sometimes, the white fox. Great quantities of ducks, geese, and other wild fowl resort to the lakes and the bays of the island. There are numerous natural harbors round the coast, which are comparatively safe in all winds— Ellis Bay and Fox Bay being especially so. The former is distant about eight miles from West End Light house on the south side ; the latter is fifteen miles from B eath Point Lighthouse on the north side. Ellis Bay is two miles in breadth, with deep water three-fourths of a mile from shore, but only with from three to four fathoms in shore. Fox Bay is smaller ; the distance across its mouth is only one mile and a half, with deep water iu the centre, extending up the bay nine- tenths of a mile, but shoaling near the shores of it ; the whole length of the bay being one mile and two-tenths. Mr. Ga- mache, who has resided at Ellis Bay for upwards of twenty-five years, states the harbor to be perfectly secure in all winds and at all periods. A gentleman from England, in 1853, a member of Lloyd's, who visited the island to inspect a vessel which had been wrecked on the coast, declared he. considered the harbor a "most excellent one," so much so that he should, on his re turn to England, make it especially known at Lloyd's, and added further, that there are many places in England, and other countries, carrying on large maritime com merce, which have not got so deep, so spacious, or so safe a harbor as Ellis Bay. This gentleman had been three times round the world as captain of an East Indiaman. The excellent position of Anticosti in re gard to ships, commerce, &c, is easily seen, when we remember that every vessel must take one of other of the channels formed by the island, whether having passed from the Atlantic, or intending to pass to the oceau through the straits of Belle Isle, through the more frequented passage be tween Newfoundland and Cape Breton, or through the Gut of Canso, or whether run ning between Quebec and those portions of Canada and of the maritime provinces lying on the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Vessels taking either of the channels formed by the position of the island must pass close to the island in consequence of the comparative narrowness of the northern one^ and of the strong southeast current which always runs along the southern channel. To avoid this, and the risk of being driven on the rock-bound coast of the south shore of the Gulf and river, vessels generally stand out till they make the west point of Anticosti, close to Ellis Bay. The inner anchorage of this bay has a depth of from three to four fathoms at low water, with very excellent holding ground (gravel and mud) ; the outer portion of the anchorage could be materi ally improved at a trifling expense, so as to be able to contain in safety, during all winds, almost any number of vessels of the largest size. If docks were constructed at Ellis Bay, with a patent slip, it would be an admirable position for the repair of vessels stranded or damaged throughout the Lower St. Lawrence, many of which are ANT Lovell's Gazetteer of [152] British North America. AN$ now broken up by the sea or dismantled by wreckers before assistance can be obtained from Quebec. For steam tugs employed for the relief of vessels in distress, this might be made an excellent station ; here, also, a few steamers or gunboats could com mand the two entrances to the river, or send out from this convenient and central spot cruisers to any part of the Gulf. The establishment of depots of coal at Ellis Bay and Fox river would be an advan tage the importance of which it would be hard to estimate, coal being easily procura ble from Nova Scotia, and laid down at either harbor at a cost not exceeding from $3.50 to $4 per ton. Considering the fact that upwards of 2000 vessels annually arrive from Europe In the season, besides a large fleet of coasting and fishing vessels^ all of which must pass within sight of the island, some idea can be formed of the importance to be attached to the position and capabili ties of these harbors for commercial pur- Ten years ago a company was formed for the purpose of colonizing the island of Anticosti, and for working and developing its resources. They laid out town sites at Ellis Bay, Fox Bay, and at the South West Point, and divided the island into twenty counties, of about 120,000 acres each, sub divided into five townshirjs. In 1880 the Government of Canada laid a submarine telegraph cable connecting the island with the mainland, an inestimable boon to the shipping trade. Sir William E. Logan, in his Geographi cal Report of Canada, after referring to de posits of peat, or peat-bogs, in different parts of Canada, says : " The most extensive peat deposits in Canada are found in Anti costi, along the low land on the coast of the island from Heath Point to within eight or nine miles of South West Point. The thick ness of the peat, as observed on the coast, was from three to ten feet, and it appears to be of an excellent quality. The height of this plain may be, on an average, fifteen feet above high water mark, and it can be easily drained and worked. Between South West Point and the west end of the island there are many peat-bogs, varying in superfices from 100 to 1000 acres." Near South West Point there are several large salt ponds, which, if labor was abun dant, might be turned to a profitable ac count in the manufacture of salt, a manu facture which would become of some value to a great part of our North American fish eries, which, as well as the greater part of Canada, are now supplied with salt from the Bahamas, and from England or the United States : and for curing fish and pro visions, bay salt, formed from the sea and from salt ponds, is the most valuable. In consequence of there not having been a snfficient supply of salt upon the island, an immense quantity of fish caught at Anti costi a year or two ago were rendered use less. This was alluded to by Commander Lavoie, of " La Canadienne," iu his report for 1871, where he says that *' fishing was abundant this season, the yield being reck oned at 9500 quintals of cod, . . but the greatest drawback arose from the difficulty experienced in curing fish, from the want of salt." Some of the Bahama islands are re tained merely on account of the salt ponds which they contain, and in Ceylon a large revenue is derived from the salt works car ried on in that island. In Commander Lavoie's report for 1872, quoted from before, he says that geologists and others who have visited the interior of the island, agree in stating that its soil is rich, and that more than one million acres can be cultivated with advantage. Clear ances have already been made at Gamache (Ellis* Bay), at South West and West Point, where vegetables and grains of the district of Montreal and Quebec flourish. Stories, however, of the numerous wrecks that have occurred on the shore of Anticosti have spread such terror that up to 1861 nobody had thought of settling there. The reefs of flat limestone, extending, in some parts, to one mile and a quarter from the shore ; the want of anchorage of a great portion of the coast, and above all, the frequent fogs, jus tify this belief, in part, but not in so great a degree as to render reasonable the oread with which they seem to have been regarded, and which can only have arisen from the natural tendency to magnify danger, of which we have no precise knowledge. Four lighthouses are erected on Anticos ti ; one on Heath Point, at the east end of the island ; another at South West Point, the third on West Point ; and the fourth at South Point, at Bagot's Bluff. That on Heath Point is a round tower7 built of a grayish white limestone, quarried on the island, and is ninety feet high. It shows at an elevation of 110 feet above the level of high water, a fixed white light, which in clear weather should be visible from a dis tance of fifteen miles. The lighthouse on South West Point is built of the same stone as the previous one quarried on the spot, is seventy-five feet high, and of the usual conical form, exhibits a white light, which revolves every three minutes, and is visible at fifteen miles, with the eye ten feet above the sea ; with the eye at fifty feet, it can be seen nineteen and a-half miles, and with the eye at an elevation of 100 feet, it will be visible about twenty- three miles. The third lighthouse, erected on the West Point of Anticosti, is a circular stone tower, faced with fire brick, 109 feet in height. It exhibits, at 112 feet above high water mark, a fixed white light, visible from a distance of fifteen miles. A gun is fired ©very hour during fog and snow storms. The lighthouse at South Point is*a comparatively new building, the light hav ing been first exhibited in August, 1870. It is a hexagonal tower, painted white, seventy- five feet above high-water mark, with a re volving white flash light every twenty sec onds. It should be seen at from fourteen to eighteen miles distance, and is visible from all points of approach. A powerful steam fog-whistle is also stationed there, about 300 feet east of the lighthouse. In foggy weather, and during snow-storms, this ANT Lovell's Gazetteer of [153] British North America. APS is sounded ten seconds in every minute, thus making an interval of fifty seconds be tween each blast, whioh can be heard in calm weather, or with the wind, from nine to fifteen miles distance, and in stormy weather, or against the wind, from three to eight miles. The lights are exhibited from the 1st of April to the 20th of December of each year. Provision depots are also established on the island for the relief of wrecked crews. The first of those is at Ellis Bay, the second at the lighthouse at the South West Point ; ligl the third, which was formerly at Shallop Creek (Jupiter River), was this year re moved to South Point, where the new light house and steam fog-whistle have been lo cated, and the fourth at the light house on Heath Point. Direction boards are erected on the shore, or nailed to trees, from which the branches have been lopped off, near the beach, and on various points of the coast. These boards are intended to point out to shipwrecked persons the way to the provi sion posts. Vessels are more frequently lost on Anti costi in the bad weather, at the close of navigation, than at any other time, and their crews would perish from want and the rigors of a Canadian winter, if it were not for this humaue provision, made by Government, in the absence of settlements on the island. As, however, the population begin to increase, and dwellings become scattered about, there will be the less ur gent need for these depots. The currents around the Island of Anti costi are very variable and uncertain, and to this cause may be attributed many of the shipwrecks that have from time to time oc curred there. At the north point of the island there is a current almost always set ting over to the north-east, heing turned in that direction by the west end of the island. Confined as it is, within a narrow channel, it is very strong. All along the south coast, between the south-west and west points, the swell and the current both set in shore, and the bottom being of clean flat limestone, will not hold an anchor. It is also by no means uncommon in summer for the breeze to die away suddenly to a calm. The tide around the island only rises from four to seven feet. It not unfrequently happens that when the current from the northward is running, anotherfrom W.N.W. comes along thesouth coast, in which case they meet at a reef off Heath Point, and cause a great ripple or irregular breaking sea. This takes' place when a fresh breeze is blowing along the land on either side of the island. A wind has been observed on the north side from N. or N.Ey whilst that on the south side was W.N.W ., and yet never meeting round the east end of the island. Between the two winds there is usually a triangular space of calm, and light baffling airs, ex tending from five to eight miles. In the space between the winds there is often ob served a high cross sea, and constantly changing light airs, which would leave a vessel at the mercy of the current, and in great danger of being set on the Heath Point reef. Streams of excellent water descend to the sea on every part of the coasts of Anticosti. They are for the most part too small to admit boats, becoming rapid immediately within their entrances, and even the largest of them are barred with sand, excepting for short intervals of time, after the spring floods, or after continued heavy rains.

The Ottawa river washes about 30 miles of its border, and forms its southern boundary. It is watered by the Rouge and North rivers, and several smaller streams. On the East and North it is bounded by the counties of Two Mountains, Terrebonne and Montcalm ; and on the West by Ottawa county. The famous Lau- rentian mountain range traverses the heart of the county from East to West, and the rich mineral deposits of this range assure a future of great prosperity and wealth to the fortunate possessor of lands in the neigh borhood. The county was, at the last census, inhabited by a population of something over 12,000. Fully two-thirds of these are English-speaking persons, settlers and des cendants of settlers from Great Britain and Ireland ; about a third of the people are French Canadians. The county is rich in pasture lands, and is well adapted for dairy operations. Possibly the time is not distant when its immense water-power and its mineral deposits will be more fully de veloped. In the present an industrious set tler can derive a very comfortable sub sistence from the pursuit of agriculture or dairy farming ; most of the people are in Comfortable circumstances, while not a few ot the older farmers are undoubtedly men of wealth. The county is reached from Montreal (in the summer months) by' the steamers plying on the Ottawa river, the point of debarkation being Carillon, in St. Andrews parish, and the foot of the rapids, which are overcome by those costly public works, the Grenville and Carillon canals. Since the line of the Q. M. O. & O. R. has traversed the county, Argenteuil has enjoyed communication with Montreal and Ottawa by several trains each way daily. Chief town, Lachute. Pop. over 13,000.

BRITISH AMERICA comprises, with the exception of Alaska, the whole of North America N. of parallel of 49°, together with some irregular portions, including New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, stretching south to lat. 43° 30' N, and the triangular portion of which, Quebec and Ontario, form the base, the apex extending S. to lat. 41° 56' N. This vast territory 'is bounded E. by the Atlantic, Davis' strait, and Baffin's bay, N. by the Arctic ocean, N.W. by Alaska, W. by the Pacific, and S. by the United States. It comprehends the prov inces of Quebec, Ontario, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, including the Island of Cape Breton, Prince Edward Island, Newfound land, Manitoba, British Columbia, and the North West Territories. Generally speak ing British America is a level country. With the exception of the Rocky Moun tains, on the W, it has but few elevations, and these are for the most part of inconsid erable height. The coast has numerous indentations, the most remarkable of which, on the E, are the Gulf of St. Law- . rence and Hudson's bay. The latter, corns?' municatingwith the Atlantic through Hnd-I^1 son's and Frobisher's straits, and with therv! Arctic ocean by means of Fox channel; Gulf of Boothia, Prince Regent's, and other inlets, penetrates to near the centre of the continent, forming one of the most extensive inland seas on the globe. The surface of the country is extremely diver sified with rivers and lakes. The St. Law rence, a river of immense volume, over 2000 miles in length, forms the outlet of the great Canadian lakes. The Saskatche wan, rising in the Rocky Mountains, trav erses 18° of Ion, or a distance of at least 900 miles, and falls into the great Lake Winni peg, in 53° N. lat. This lake is connected with Hudson's bay by the Nelson or Port Nelson River, about 500 miles in length. Lake Athabaska, situated about lat. 58° N, and Ion. 110° W, receives, among others, the Peace River and the Athabaska, a large stream, rising in the Rocky Moun tains, near the source of the Columbia. The Mackenzie, entering the Arctic ocean, is one of the largest rivers on the globe. It flows through about 16° of lat. E. of the Mackenzie, and flowing into- the Arctic ocean, are the Coppermine and Fish Rivers. The basin of the Winnipeg may he consid ered as a continuation of that of the St. Lawrence, or as a portion of one high pla teau divided into two parts. There oan be but little doubt that a very great, if not the freater part of the vast region included un- er the name of British America, is doomed to everlasting steriUty, on account of the BRI Lovell's Gazetteer of L177] British North America. BRI severity of the climate. The most north ern station in which vegetation has been dis covered is Melville island, 74° 50' N. lat, where the mean annual temperature is from 1 to 2 degrees below zero, and that of July, about 42°. The species that exist here con sist chiefly of saxifrages, grasses, cruciform plants, mosses, and lichens ; not a tree or even a bush is able to rear its head ; nor, indeed, is there a single plant -or woody structure except a little willow (Salix ar- tica) which rises 6 inches high. It is iu these latitudes that the red snow plant (.Protoccocus nivulis), that most simple of cryptogamic vegetables, exists in all its beauty. As we advance southward, vast forests of spruce firs (Abies alba and nigra), among which grow the reindeer moss and other lichens, overspread the land, To those are added different kinds of wild cur rants and berries, and a variety of papili onaceous plants, which ahouud in the open plains. With these are combined, as we continue to advance, the majestic poplars of Canada (Populus hudsonica, aud others), birches (.Betula papyracea and populiolia), and many sorts of oaks and ashes, together with butternuts (Juglans Cenerea) and hickories (Carya alba aud amara). The animals hunted for food are doer, of four different kinds, buffaloes, rabbits, and por cupines. Wild fowl are also numerous, especially grouse, wild geese, and ducks. The principal objects ot traffic, especially in the most northern parts, are the skins of fur-clad animals, of which there are here a great variety. The chief tribes inhabiting the Northern regions are the Chippewas, the Assiniboines, the Crees, the Slave In dians, and the Esquimaux. Of all these tribes the Crees have the best character, being active, honest, and hospitable, kind to their women, and fondly attached to their children. For an account of that portion of British America under cultivation see CAN ADA, Dominion of. BRITISH COLUMBIA, formerly. tfEW CALEDONIA, a province of the Dominion of Canada, bounded on the N. by the 60th paraUel of latitude ; E. by the main chain of the Rocky Mountains ; S. by the United States ; and W. by Alaska, the Pacific Ocean and Queen Charlotte's Sound. Length 764% miles ; breadth about 400 miles. Area 350,000 square miles. The coast line is deeply indented. The northern part of the colony is diversified with mountain, lake and river ; is of extraordinary fertility, pro ducing all Canadian cereals and vegetables, and fruits in larger measure than any part of even Ontario, and with a mining region (Omincca) at the head waters of the Peace, Skeena, and Fraser rivers, which, though very imperfectly explored (owing to .their inaccessibility to general travel), gives in dications of being very rich in gold and sil ver. The southern and middle part in cludes the rich gold valley of Fraser River, and is weU adapted for pasturage, and also, with irrigation, for agriculture ; some parts, however, such as tbe Chilcotin plains, and the great and beautiful valley of the Okan- agon, require no artificial irrigation, nor 12 does any part of the seaboard. Throughout the whole extent of the province there ig an abundance of forest land, the timber en which is of the most valuable description. One kind especially, the Douglas pine, yields spars from 90 to 100 feet in length, and from 20 to 24 inches in diameter. The tree is very often from 150 to 300 feet in length, without knots or branches, and the diameter varies from six to ten feet, and in quality is about twice as strong as Canadian red pine, and being more gummy, iB more durable and takes a better hold. At Bur- rard Inlet, 9 miles from New Westminster, there are pine trees 27 to 30 feet in diame ter. The yearly exports of timber amount to about $250,000, but the vast forests have hardly been touched. The mineral resources of British Colum bia are very great. Gold is found all along the Fraser and Thompson Rivers, and in great abundance in the Cariboo district, the yield in that one locality exceeding, in 1870, one million dollars, while the yield of the entire province for the past ten years has exceeded twenty-two million dollars. Silver and copper are also to be had in abundance, but the mines have not as yet been very largely worked. The true wealtb of the province, however, is its coal fields, which are inexhaustible, easy of access and easily worked- Bituminous coal is found on the mainland and on Vancouver Island ; and anthracite coal on Queen Charlotte Island. The latter has been sold in San Francisco for $20 per ton. The fisheries, which will some day prove a source of national wealth, are amongst the most valuable known. The climate of British Columbia is mild and fa vorable enough to allow animals to live in the open air throughout the winter, and in many parts the plains and hUls are covered with a herb called bunch grass, which pos sesses highly nutritious qualities and keeps cattle in exceUent condition during the whole winter. Winter lasts from Novem ber till March ; but snow seldom remains long on the ground. The prevailing winds are from the N. in summer, and from the S- and W. in winter. The area of the land fit for agricultural settlement is estimated at 250,000 square miles, diversified by hill and dale, and watered by numerous streams and lakes. The soil varies from a deep black vegetable loam to a light brown, loamy earth ; the hills supplying slate and building stone. Wheat, barley, potatoes, turnips, apples, pears, &c. , grow luxuriantly. The country is rich in fur-bearing ani mals, of which the principal are the black, brown and grizzly bears, lynx, marten and beaver. The annual product of the fur trade amounts to between $200,000 and $250,000. Shipbuilding is a branch of trade which promises to assume large proportions. Manufactures are yet in their infancy. Chief among the rivers of the country is the great Fraser River, which pursues a rapidcourse between steep and.rocky banks, until, approaching the sea, it presents a fertile and finely wooded valley from 50 to BRI Lovell's Gazetteer of [178] British North America. BRI 60 miles in length. The total length of the Fraser River is about 700 miles. The Thompson river surpasses the Fraser in the richness of its scenery, and flows through one of the most beautiful countries in the world- The Columbia is another noble stream. It enters the United States at Fort Shepherd, after a course of nearly 800 miles in British territory. Total length about 1200 miles. The means of communication with the interior of British Columbia are very good. Steamers ascend the Fraser River over 100 miles, to the head of navigation, and for over 450 miles beyond tbis there is an ex cellent gravelled road, constructed by the government at great expense. Burrard In let is the largest and finest harbor on the mainland, and one of its ports (Port Moody) will be the terminus of the Canada Pacific railway. British Columbia consists of two perfect ly distinct parts, the mainland above de scribed and Vancouver Island. This island is the largest in the Pacific, being 278 miles long, ana 40 to 50 wide. It is separated from the mainland by the Straits of Fuca, which are about 16 miles in width, and by the Gulf of Georgia, which varies from 30 miles hi width to a narrowness that is bridgeable, viz. : at Valde's Island. The surface Ls nlarked by mountain ranges and extensive plains. The soil is productive. The island is noted for its coal mines. Gold has also been found. The harbors are nu merous and excellent, and Esquimau Har bor, which is the naval station, is also re ferred to as not unlikely to prove the ter minus of the Canada Pacific railway. The public affairs of British Columbia are administered by a Lieutenant Govern or, an Executive Council of live members, and a Legislative Assembly composed of 25 representatives elected every four years. Justice is dispensed by a chief justice and four assistants. Education is free to all ; the schools are non-sectarian. Victoria, Vancouver Island, is the capital of the province, and the seat of the see of the Lord Bishop of British Columbia. It is situated on a narrow inlet, which, com pletely landlocked, gives accommodation to all vessels whose draught of. water does not exceed 18 feet. It is rapidly rising into a large city. The number of arrivals in 1880 was 471 (tons 356,649), and the clearances 465 (tons 353,687). Total value of imports 51,736,616 ; exports §2,643,570. Mails from Canada to British Columbia and vice versa are conveyed between San Francisco and Victoria by the steamer Prince Alfred, an iron steamship of 900 tons. The service is performed twice a month. Some mails are also conveyed by land to Portland or Olympia, and thence reach Vic toria by another steamer. The Vancouver Island postal service is performed from Vic toria by the steamer Sir James Douglas, which conveys the mails along the eastern coast as far as Comox, 130 miles from Vic toria, stopping at Cowichan, Maple Bay, Chemainus, Nanaimo and Comox. Cowichan is a flourishing place. It possesses good schools, the only stone church in the Prov ince, and a convent at which the nuns (who are Canadians) teach trades to Indian and half-breed girls. Nanaimo is also a flour ishing town, with bright prospects for the future. There are hardly any settlements on the western coast, and there is, in conse quence, no postal service. The service to Comox is efficient and regular, and is per formed with every possible regard to econ omy. The mails for the mainland are des patched from Victoria. Some, of but little importance, are conveyed by the Sir James Douglas, as far as Nanaimo, where the steamer Otter, belonging to the Hudson's Bay Company, receives the mails for the River Skeena. The other mails, which are by far the most important, are conveyed from Victoria to New Westminster, thence to Yale, and from Yale to Barkerville. The service from Victoria to New Westminster is performed by the steamer Enterprise, be longing to the Hudson's Bay Company. From jfew Westminster to Yale, on the Fraser, the mails are conveyed, in summer, by the steamer Lillouet. From Yale to Barkerville, the service is performed by means of stages drawn by four or six horses. Upon the Cariboo route, between Soda Creek and the mouth of the Quesnel, the Fraser is navigable, and the Victoria makes the trip promptly and safely, and affords to trav ellers every comfort that can be desired. A steamboat has recently been placed on Lake Tatla, to provide miners with facilities for reaching the mines of the District of Omi- nica more speedily, more safely, and with less fatigue. Telegraph lines extend from Swinomish, in Washington Territory (United States), to Barkerville, at the extremity of the Cariboo road. There is, besides, a branch line from Matsqui to Burrard Inlet via New West minster, in addition to a right of way over the line belonging to the western 'Union Telegraph Company from Swinomish to Vic toria, which comprises two submarine ca bles. This line of telegraph, which by the act completing the union of Columbia with Canada, became the property of the Do minion, is 569 miles long, in addition to the submarine portion, which is a mile and a quarter in length. The following is a list of the telegraph stations and tariff for 10 words from Victoria : # Sehome $050 Matsqui 0 50 N.

It is further subdivided into 12 electoral dis tricts for provincial purposes. BRI Lovell's Gazetteer of [179] British North America. BRO British Columbia occupies a commanding position not only with regard to the trade of the western part of America and the Pacific islands, but also with respect to China, Japan, and other Asiatic countries, and the Australian colonies. Along the whole coast line of at least 10,000 miles (following in dents) a perfect labyrinth of islands exists, giving innumerable harbors, inlets, and channels, teeming, as well as the rivers that empty into them, with salmon, sturgeon, mackerel, cod, herring, halibut, oulaohans, and whales. Except the whale fishery, these vast fisheries are altogether unde veloped. This colony was first established in 1858, and has since made remarkable progress. The total population in 1871 was 10,586, ex clusive of Indians. This total comprised 8876 whites, 462 negroes, and 1548 Chinese. The number of Indians is large, supposed to be about 50,000. Some tribes have gath ered together in villages, and considerable progress has been made in the education of theirchildren. The construction of the Can ada Pacific Railway cannot fail to develop the untold resources of this province, and add greatly to the wealth and general pros perity of the Dominion. The distance from Montreal to Victoria is 3500 miles, which can now be accomplished in 11 or 12 days, by the San Francisco route ; but by the Canada Pacific Railway, to be completed in 1890, the distance will be 2627 miles from Lake Nipissing to its terminus at Port Moody, or 2984 miles from Montreal. We are indebted to M. McLeod, Esq., (son of the late Chief Trader John McLeod, of the Hudson's Bay Company, and author of "Peace River," &c.,) for the following information, as to the fertility of Northern British Columbia : " At Fort St. James, about lat. 54° 30' N., 2000 feet above the sea, the first barley (five, quarts) sown produced five bushels, say about 84 bushels per acre. This was about 50 miles west of McLeod's Fort, which last is the highest post on the Rocky moun tains. "At Fort Frazer, still further west, on the slope of the Cascade, the first potatoes planted, about a bushel, produced forty- fold." Mr. McLeod estimates the total area of British Columbia at 350,000 square miles, and the wheat area at 150,000 square miles, or 96,000,000 acres, being all south of lat. 55° N. (although there are fine wheat valleys far beyond N.), islands included. The grass, barley, and vegetable area north of the above— that is, from lat. 55° to 60° N. (north ern boundary line of British Columbia), and from Ion. 120° W. to American boundary, 141° W., Mr. McLeod estimates at 100,000 square miles, or, 64,000,000 acres. A consid- able portion, say one-sixth of these areas, is covered with lakes; numerous, and, like all the riven*, abounding with wholesome fish — fish, in fact, is the native staple food. Mr. McLeod further estimates the coast line of British Columbia at 10,000 miles, a predicate on that of Norway : the latter, on, actual measurement, having been found to have in its indented line thirteen times the length of its coast in a straight line. In point of fact, the British Columbia coast is much more, and more deeply indented than that of Norway, some of the inlets running in upwards of fifty miles. - The inlets are full of salmon and other fish.

CANADA, THE DOMINION OF, a Fed eral Union of Provinces and Territories, comprising all the British possessions in North America, except the Island of New foundland. It is bounded E. by the Atlan tic Ocean, Davis's Strait, and Baffin's Bay ; W. by Alaska, the Pacific Ocean and Queen Charlotte's Sound ; N. by the Arctic Ocean ; and S., S.E., and S.W. by the United States. Area 3,330,162 square miles,— 393,996 square miles larger than the United States. Of this immense area, nearly equalling in ex tent the continent of Europe, about 700,000 square miles are covered with water. Face of the country.— It is but natural to suppose that in such a vast extent of coun try there is every variety of surface — moun tain, plateau and valley. Beginning at the Atlantic frontier of Nova Scotia a range of highlands skirts the seaboard and extends inland for 15 or 20 miles. This dislocated range of metamorphic hills nowhere as sumes the height of mountains. Sixty, miles inland from this seaboard, aud nearly parallel thereto, the Cobequid Mountains, some of which are 1100 feet high, traverse Nova Scotia, from the Bay of Fundy to the Strait of Canso. This range is clothed with a large growth of timber, to its summit, where agricultural products grow luxuri antly. Between the Atlantic and Cobequid ranges is a wide and fertile valley, embrac ing the entire length of Nova Scotia proper. The third mountainous range, of moderate elevations, traverses the boundary between Quebec and New Brunswick, from the State of Maine to the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Be tween this range and the Cobequid Moun tains, with which it runs parallel, is an ex tensive plateau of fertile lands* embracing nearly the whole of New Brunswick and a. large part of Nova Scotia. The coast of Labrador is mountainous. The mountain formations of the country lying between the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the Rocky Mountains assume a different direction from the lower mountain ranges above re ferred to. The country presents a terraced character ; 'the navigation of the principal streams is obstructed by numerous falls and rapids, the result of convulsions of no ordinary nature. The principal part of the mountainous districts runs in the direction of the great rivers and lakes lying between the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the Rocky Mountains. On either side of the valley of the estuary of the St. Lawrence is a range of mountainous country. That on the north is called the Laurentides. It terminates easterly at the coast of Labrador and ex tends up the N. side of the Ottawa for 100 miles, then sweeps round to the Thousand Islands near Kingston, then gains the southern extremity of Georgian Bay, con tinues along the eastern and northern shores of Lake Huron and Lake Superior, and ultimately reaches the Arctic Ocean : its whole course is about 3500 miles This chain varies from hills of 200 feet to 'that of mountains, culminating near Lake Supe rior to a height of 2100 feet. It gives the churches, a number of stores, several hotels, and has a considerable trade in lumber and fish, especiaUy salmon.

CAN water shed separating the tributaries of the St. Lawrence from those of Hudson's Bay ; but beyond the basin of the St. Lawrence it is traversed by two affluents of this bay, the Saskatchewan and the Churchill, the former taking its source in the Hooky Mountains ; while, stiU farther on, the range becomes the limit of Hudson's Bay rivers, dividing their sources and those of the Back river and other streams, for 800 miles, from the Mackenzie River- In the valleys and lower parts of the Laurentian region there are considerable areas of good land, having a deep, rich soil, and bearing heavy timber. In the higher parts the rigor of the climate scarcely permits the cultiva tion" of the cereals. The southern range (called Notre Dame Mountains) is, a spur of the AlleghanleB, which, commencing at the Gulf of St. Lawrence, forms a prolonged chain of mountains through the States as far as Virginia. In its course through Can ada it runs nearly parallel to the River St.' Lawrence at from 20 to 50 miles distance } and passes south of Lake Champlain. Its greatest elevation on the Canadian side (the Shickshock Mountains on the Gaspe" peninsula), is "about 4000 feet. The Blue Mountains on the S. side of Georgian Bay attain a height of 1900 feet above the level of Lake Huron. The country lying between Lake Superior and the Rocky Mountains is .intersected by numerous chains of moun tains, with extensive valleys of fertile lands intervening. The Rocky Mountains, the dominant ridge of the continent, stretch from Alaska to California. Some peaks on Canadian territory attain a height of 15,000 feet* Between these mountains and the Pacific coast, are the Selkirk Mountains, the Gold Range, the great central hilly plateau or table land, and the Coast or Cas cade Range. All these mountain chains as well as the central plateau have a general N.W. and S.E. course. The Cascade Range is the northward extension of the Sierra Nevada ; the central plateau bears a sim ilar relation to the great volcanic- arid and hilly table land of the State of Nevada ; and the Selkirk and Gold Ranges may be paralleled with the Bitter Root Mountains between Montana and Idaho. The highest points of the Cascade Mountains do not ex ceed 7000 feet. The central plateau has an average elevation of from 1000 to 3000 feet. The Selkirk Mountains, towards the north, in the vicinity of Cariboo and about the sources of the North Thompson, have a somewhat greater average elevation than the Cascades. The highest known summits of the Rocky Mountains are Mount Murchi- son, Mount Hooper and Mount Brown, es timated at from 12,000 to 15,000 feet. They have never been ascended. Of the princi pal part of the territory lying around Hud son's Bay .little is yet known. Minerals. — The Dominion of Canada con tains within its limits almost every variety of mineral wealth. The gold deposits of British Columbia and Nova Scotia are among the richest existing on the globe. The gold area of Nova Scotia is known to spread over an extent of at least 6000 square miles. The lodes are regular in structure, and preserve their richness to depths of 200 and 300 feet. The gold extracted from quartz rock is remarkably fine and pure. In British Columbia the precious metal is not confined to any one section. It is found all along the Fraser and Thompson Rivers, again in the north along the Peace and Omineca rivers, and on Germansen Creek and on Vancouver Island. From the United States frontier to the 53rd degree of latitude, and for a width of from 1 to 200 miles, gold is found nearly everywhere. Profitable gold mines are worked in the county of Beauce, Quebec. Gold is also found in the county of HastingB, Ontario ; on the banks of the Shiktehawk, a tributary of the River St. John (New Brunswick) j on the Atha- basea, McLeod, and Pembina Rivers, which now into the Aretic Ocean ; and on the North Saskatchewan, Red Deer, and Bow rivers, flowing into Lake "Winnipeg. The Blackfeet Indians have been so hostile to miners in the Saskatchewan country that it was only in the neighborhood of the Hud son's Bay Company's forts that continued washing for gold could be carried on . In the neighborhood of Fort Edmunton from $3 to $12 worth of gold has frequently been washed in a day by one man. Miners who have visited the gold fields of the North West Territories proclaim them to be enor mously rich. Extraordinary deposits of silver ore are found in several islands on the N. shore of Lake Superior ; also in numerous veins of argentiferous galena scattered over that portion of Quebec to the south of the St. Lawrence. Silver is also found in Nova Scotia, and in the Fraser valley in British Columbia. Copper is abundant in every portion of the Dominion —in British Columbia, the North West Terri tories, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. The copper mines of Ontario are very valuable. On the shores of Lakes Huron and Superior copper is found in large quantities. In the province of Quebec ex tensive and exceedingly productive mining operations are carried on in the Eastern townships, at the Harvey, Hartford, Hunt ingdon, Capel, and Ives mines. The Cop per mountains of the North West Terri tories are extraordinarily rich, hut difficult of access. Lead occurs in many places in the Laurentian range. A mine in rear df Kingston, Ont., has exposed a deposit of re markable richness and extent. Lead is also found on the N. shore of Lake Superior, often rich in silver, on the shores of Gaspe, in the Eastern townships, and in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. Veins of lead traverse the rocks of Coronation Gulf. Iron occurs in prodigious quantities in the Lau rentian range. At Hull, near Ottawa, there is a bed about 90 feet in thickness contain ing not less than 250,000,000 tons of iron ; on the Rideau canal there is a bed 200 feet thick containing double the above amount ; and at Marmora there are, five beds which are computed to contain an aggregate of 1,000, 000,000 tons. These extraordinary deposits are of the magnetic species, yielding 60 to 70 per cent, of pure iron, and occur in the CAN Lovell's Gazetteer of [188] British North America. CAN same geological formation from which the celebrated Swedish iron is made. Extensive beds of good iron occur in the Eastern town ships, also in the neighborhood of Lake Nipissing ; and at various localities along the N. shore of the St- Lawrence consider able quantities of bog iron ore are found. Near Three Rivers, cast and wrought iron of a very superior quality has been produced from this ore for upwards of a century. At the mouth of the Moisic Biyer, about 300 miles below Quebec, there is a vast deposit of magnetite, estimated to contain about 20,000,000 tons of iron. It lies on the surface iu the shape of black sand, perfectly free from sulphur or phosphorous, and the iron manufactured is of superior quality and pe culiarly suited to the manufacture of the finest steel, edge-tools, &c. Iron is also found in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and in the Saskatchewan valley. In the former prov ince it is melted and manufactured on a large scale on the Cobequid mountains. Chromic iron, a mineral which is highly prized for the manufacture of the chromates of potash and lead, and for the production of many beautiful red, yellow, and green colors, is found in considerable quantities in the East ern townships of Quebec, and iu the Shick- shock mountains. Iron ochres are distrib uted in many parts of Canada, and chiefly in association with the bog iron ores- Some of these beds have been partially worked and supply an excellent material, of a great variety of shades of color. The iron ochres of Canada are equal to those of France. Nickel and cobalt are found in several lo calities in Canada, but chiefly on the N. shore of Lake Huron and Lake Superior. Plumbago or graphite occurs in workable quantities near Ottawa, in rear of Kingston, and near St. John, N.B. Sulphate of harytes, soapstone, lithographic stone, tin, zinc, bis muth, antimony, magnesia, and manganese are found in several parts of the Dominion. Mica is found in great abundance and of extreme purity in Grenville, on the Ottawa river, and in the township of North B urgess, near the Rideau canal. There are very large deposits of phosphate of lime behind Brock ville and at other places in Ontario. Large quantities of iron pyrites are found near these deposits. The conditions are there fore favorable for the manufacture of sul phuric acid, and for converting the phos phate of lime into super-phosphate for ma nure. Beautiful serpentine and verd an tique marbles are found in different parts of Quebec, and in Cape Breton there is a mar ble mountain which contains some of the finest specimens of white and colored mar ble. Springs of petroleum or mineral oil occur in several localities in the S.W. part of Ontario, and from the numerous wells already sunk millions of gallons have been taken. The oil bearing rock (Lower Devon ian limestone) extends over a large portion of the western peninsula ; and though one part after another may be exhausted and abandoned, and the exhaustion of the whole region is but a matter of time, it will prob ably be long before oil boring has travelled over the whole productive district. On the Gaspe peninsula natural springs yielding small amounts of petroleum are found over a considerable area. The oil in this region occurs in the upper Silurian rocks. There are no less than 60,000 acres of peat lands in Quebec, not including the great bed in the Island of Anticosti, which contains as many more, and at least 30,000 acres in Ontario. In many of the bogs the peat attains a depth of 10 and 20 feet, and even more. It is com pressed and used for various purposes, with success, instead of coal. Of the other min erals coal is the most important. It is found in Nova Scotia, in New Brunswick, in Brit ish Columbia, and in the North West Terri tories. The coal fields of Nova Scotia are of vast extent and value, and have been worked more or less since the first settlement of the colony by the British. The most important mines are at Pictou and Sydney, C.B. They contain a sufficient quantity to supply the whole steam navy of Great Britain for many centuries to come, and also to meet amply the demands of the other North American colonies bordering on the Atlantic. The coal mines of British Columbia are even more valuable than the gold. Bituminous , coal is found on Vancouver island in several ; places, especially along the East coast. The coal is of fair quality, superior to the Scotch, but not equal to the Welsh. Veins of coal have been found in other parte of the prov ince. Anthracite coal, very excellent in quality, is found on Queen Charlotte's is land. The coal fields of New Brunswick cover an area of about 10,000 square miles. The Albert coal is one of the most beautiful of all carboniferous products ; it is jet black, brilliant and lustrous, with a conchoidal fracture, and is extremely brittle. It is chiefly used in the manufacture of illumi nating oils (of which it yields, by distillation, a large per centage, and of the very best quality) and gas. The coal mined at Grand Lake is of an excellent quality, being hard, rather lustrous, giving out much heat in burning, and lasting longer than most other coal. The great coal bed of the North West Territories commences 150 miles East of the Rocky mountains. It is 300 miles in width, and extends over 16 degrees of latitude, to the Arctic Ocean. There are no coal mines in Ontario or Quebec. Salt springs, strongly saturated, are numerous in New Brunswick, and salt wells of great richness are worked in the counties of Ontario bordering on Lake Huron. Agates, jaspers, diamonds, rubies, pearls, feldspar, amethysts, carnelians, chal cedonies, cairngorms, porphyries, &c, are found in several parts of the Dominion. Guys, Bays, Rivers, Lakes, &c. — The coasts of the Dominion have numerous in dentations, the most remarkable of which are Hudson's bay — one of the most exten sive inland seas on the globe— the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and the Gulf of Georgia. The hydrogiaphical basin of the St. Law rence and its estuary comprises an area of about 530,000 square miles. In form it pre sents an irregular parallelogram running nearly S.W. for about 900 miles, with a pretty uniform breadth of 250 miles ¦ the southern Bide in its farther progress sweep- CAN Lovell's Gazetteer of L189J British North America. CAN summer is considerably warmer. The cli mate of New Brunswick is subject to great extremes of heat and cold ; the ther- . mometer sometimes rising to 100° during the day and falling in the forest during the night of the same day to 50°. Still the cli mate is exceedingly healthy and favorable for agricultural operations. The climate of Prince Edward Island is much milder than. that of Nova Scotia or New Brunswick, and is remarkably salubrious. The winter is long and cold, but the summer is eminently fitted for the growth of all ordinary cereals. The winters of Quebec are cold and the summers somewhat similar to those of France. There are at times in winter snow falls of 3 or 4 feet and the thermometer sinks very low ; but the atmosphere is gen erally dry and exhilarating. The cold, therefore, is not felt to be unpleasant, in fact not nearly so much so as the cold of the wintersin England. The climateof Quebec is altogether one of the healthiest under the sun, as well as one of the most pleasant to live in, The winter of Ontario is much milder than that of Quebec owing to its being near the lakes. Manitoba and the Saskatchewan country have the same sum mer temperature as the most favored parts of the St. Lawrence valley, as Central Penn sylvania and Southern New England. The winter isothermal is that of Quebec. The climate of British Columbia varies accord ing to the locality, owing principally to four causes, greater or less distance from the sea and from the vicinity of the mountain regions, difference in the nature and quan tity of the vegetable growth, and difference of level. The low portions near the sea, and on Vancouver Island have a moderate cli mate with a general range of from 20° in winter to 80° in summer. The temperature on the island is lower than on the mainland owing to the prevailing southern ( winds. ing round in a wide semi-circle, the di-. ameter of which extends about 900 miles to the N.W. The Great Lakes into which the river expands — Superior, Huron, Michigan, St. Clair, Erie and Ontario,— with its estu ary, have an area of about 130,000 square miles, leaving for the lands. drained by the river an area of 400,000 square miles. At least 330,000 square miles of these belong to Canada, the remainder constitutes a part of the United States. With the exception of about 50,000 square miles (including the whole of the Gaspe peninsula) in the eastern part of Quebec, the Canadian portion lies wholly on the N. side of the river, while the only part of the United States which does so is situated at the west end of Lake Super ior. The principal rivers flowing into the St. Lawrence are the Ottawa, 800 miles long, with many large tributaries; the St. Mau rice, 400 miles long/ the Batiscan, the Chaudiere, the Richelieu, the St. Francis, the Hamilton, the Moisic, the Romaine, the Ste. Anne, and the mighty Saguenay. The other chief rivers in the Dominion are the Saskatchewan, which rises in the Rocky Mountains, traverses 15° of longitude, or a distance of at least 900 miles, and falls into the great Lake Winnipeg in latitude 55° N. This lab e is connected with Hudson's Bay by the Nelson River, about 500 miles in length. Lake Athabasca, situated about lat, 59° N., and Ion. 110° W., receives among others, the Peace River and the Athabasca, a large stream rising in the Rocky Moun tains near the source of the Columbia. The Fraser River, the golden stream of British Columbia, rises in the Rocky Mountains and enters the Pacific after a course of about 700 miles. The Columbia, 1200 miles long, also rises in the Rocky Mountains. The Mackenzie, entering the Arctic Ocean, is one of the largest rivers on the globe. East of it, and also flowing into the Arctic, are the Coppermine and Fish Rivers. The Gatineau, the Keepawa, the Matawan, the Mistassini, the Churchill, the Dumoine, the Miramichi, the Restigouche, the St. John, the Avon, the Clyde, the Grand, the Trent, the Nipigon and the Stickeen, are all im portant riverB, and the Great Bear, Great Slave, Manitoba, Lake of the Woods, Mistassini, St. John, Nipigon and Nip issing are all magnificent lakes, but they are so fully described among the riverB and lakes that it is unnecessary to repeat them here. The rivers and lakes of the Dominion number several thousands. Of these descriptions of over 2000, which in clude all the most important, are given in another part of this work. Climate.— The climate of Canada is nearly the same as that of Norway, Sweden, St. Petersburg, and the South of Iceland. Both the heat of summer and tbe cold of winter are much greater than in the corresponding latitudes of Europe. The climate of Nova Scotia is extremely temperate, considering its northern latitude. In Halifax and the eastern counties the mercury seldom rises in summer above 86° iu the shade, and in winter it is not often down to zero. In the Interior the winter is about the same, hut the Along the coast of British Columbia, for 150 miles inland, the climate is humid, the thermometer rarely falling below 10° or ris ing above 90°. Ram is abundant during the spring and during the summer and autumn. Snow neither falls heavily nor lies long, and the frosts are not severe, ice being seldom more than an inch thick. In the middle districts the summer heat is intense, and in winter mercury commonly freezes. Soil and Productions. — By far the greater Sart of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Que- ec, OntariOj and the country lyiiig between Lake Superior and the Pacific Ocean and Vancouver Island is admirably adapted for agricultural pursuits. The soil of Quebec is exceedingly fertile and capable of high cultivation ; the cereals, hay, root crops and fruits grow in abundance and perfection . The great wealth of Ontario is the richness of its soil and the favorable nature of its climate for agricultural operations. The extreme S.W. district of the province' is distinguished by its adaptability to the growth of many fruits, shrubs and flowers, which will not come to perfection in any other part of Canada. Here the peach ripens in the open air, the liner kinds of grapes grow well, the tulip tree blossoms, CAN Lovell's Gazetteer of [190] British North America. CAN Prince Edward is eminently agricultural and pastoral. The far greater portion of the Dominion is still covered with forests, chiefly white and red pine, immense quan tities of which are annually exported. The principal trees of British Columbia are the Douglas pine, Menzies fir, yellow fir, bal sam, hemlock, white pine, cedar, yellow cypress, arbor vitse, yew, oak, white maple, arbutus, alder, dog wood, aspen cherry, crab apple, and cottonwood ; of the North West Territories, poplar and oak, spruce, scrub pines, balsam, aspen and birch ; of Ontario and Quebec, pine, tamarac, balsam, cedar, maple, birch, poplar, ash, elm, cherry alder, beech, willow, hemlock, etc. ; and of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, oak, beech, birch, maple, ash, poplar, larch, spruce, pine, hemlock, etc. Wild Animals.— These comprise the black bear, grizzly bear, wolf, buffalo, deer, pan ther, moose, cariboo, wild cat, antelope, the catalpa is not cut down by frost, the chestnut tree bears, and the finest kinds of ' apples and pears are cultivated. The valley of the Thames, togetherwith the rich allu vial fiats which extend from it northward to the north branch of Bear Creek, and south ward nearly to the shore of Lake Erie, is remarkable for its great fertility, and lux uriant forest growth. The soil is generally clay, with covering of rich vegetable mould, and is covered in the natural state with elm, oak,' blackwalnut and whitewood trees of large size, together with fine groves of sugar maple. Towards the mouth of the Thames, and on the borders of Lake St. Clair, is an area of natural prairie of about 30,000 acres. It lies but little above the level of the lake, and is in large part overflowed in time of spring floods. The soil of this prairie is a deep unctuous mould, covered chiefly with grass, with here and there copses of maple, walnut, and elm, and with willows dotting .the surface of the plain. Along the shores of Lake Huron and Lake Superior oats and barley grow well, but northward, at the di viding ridge between the waters flowing into Hudson's Bay and into the lakes, it is difficult to raise even potatoes. The natural vegetation in the Red Biver and Saskatch ewan valleys is luxuriant. The soil is an alluvial, black, argillaceous mould, rich in organic deposit, and resting at a depth of 'i to 4 feet on a tenacious clay soil. Some fields at Red Biver have been known to pro duce 20 successive crops of wheat without fallow or manure, the yield being frequently 30 to 40 bushels to the acre. Barley yields enormous returns, with a weight of from 50 to 55 lbs. to the bushel. Oats thrive well. Potatoes are particularly successful, unsur passed in quality, and the yield remarkably prolific. Turnips, carrots, cabbages and other root crops do nearly as well as pota toes. Buffaloes winter on the prairie grasses up as high as Lake Athabasca, and the horses of the settlers run at large aud grow fat on the grasses they pick up iu the woods and bottoms. As an agricultural country British Columbia has been much under estimated. The tracts of arable land are of very great extent. A portion of these, how ever, require artificial irrigation. This is easy to be obtained and not expensive^ and lands so irrigated are of very great fertility, yielding as much as 40 bushels of wheat to the acre. The tracts of land suitable to grazing purposes are of almost endless ex tent. On the Cariboo road there is a plain 150 miles long and60 or80 wide, and between the Thomson and Fraser Bivers there is an immense tract of arable and grazing land. The hills and plains are covered witlibunch grass on which the cattle and horses live all winter, and its nutritive qualities are said to exceed the celebrated blue grass and clover of Virginia. In Nova Scotia, apples, plums, pears, quinces, cherries, etc., are easily cultivated ; grains and root crops do well, and Indian com will ripen. The cli mate of New Brunswick is exceedingly fav orable for agricultural operations. The average yield per acre is greater than in the State of New York or Ohio.

Among the smaller feath ered tribe are many beautiful birds— jays, woodpeckers, blackbirds of numerous and beautiful varieties, wrens, sparrows, thrush es, blue birds, larks, robins, whippoorwills, and two species of humming birds. Besides these there are kites, bitterns, herons, crows, kingfishers, partridges, cranes, swal lows, ravens, etc, There are no less than 243 species of birds in New Brunswick, and a list of the birds of North America pub lished in 1856 gives a number of no less than 716. Among reptiles are rattlesnakes and various other kinds of snakes, and liz ards. Among fish, codfish, salmon, salmon trout, whitefish, mackerel, shad, herring, halibut, bass, sturgeon, maskelonge, etc. ; and among shell fish, oysters, crabs, lob sters and turtles. Manufactures. — The principal articles manufactured in Ontario and Quebec are cloth, linen, furniture, leather, sawn lum ber, flax, hardware, paper, glass, chemicals, soap, boots and shoes, cotton and woollen goods, steam engines and locomotives, sew ing machines, wooden ware of all descrip tions, agricultural implements, etc. ; in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, sawn lumber, ships, cotton and woollen goods, boots and shoes, furniture, leather, nails, machinery, gunpowder, paper, steam en gines, locomotives, etc. The manufactures of Prince Edward Island are chiefly for do mestic purposes. In British Columbia, the manufactures are very few in number, but water power is everywhere abundant. The latter remark applies generally to the whole Dominion. Internal Improvements.— The canals of Canada are among its most important pub- CAN Lovell's Gazetteer of [191] British North America. CAN lie works. The most easterly is St. Peters canal leading into the Bras d'Or, Cape Bre ton ; distance 2300 feet. Next the Shuben acadie canal connecting Halifax with the Bay of Fundy. The St. Lawrence naviga tion is 2385 miles long, and eight canals, one of which iB American (the Sault Ste. Marie), have been built to make it practic able for all its length. The Ottawa and Bideau canals complete a second (interior) line of communication from Montreal to Kingston: their united length is 143J4 miles. The St. Ours lock and the Chambly canal connect the St. Lawrence and the Hudson, via the Richelieu river and Lake Champlain. Distance from Montreal to New York 456 miles. The railway system of Canada is fast as suming extensive proportions. The first railway was begun in 1835. It was a line 16 miles in length, from Laprairie on the St. Lawrence to St. Johns. The road was opened with horses in 1836, and first worked with locomotives in 1837. The first rail way in Ontario, between Queenstown and Chippewa, was opened with horses in 1839.

Telegraphs.— There are five telegraph companies in the Dominion — the Montreal, the Dominion, the New Brunswick, the Nova Scotia, and the Fredericton and St. John. The lines of the three latter are leased and worked by the Western Union Telegraph Company. The Montreal is the leading telegraph company in the Dominion. It was incorporated in 1847,' three years after the first line was opened in the United States, and has now 22,000 miles of line, and 1700 offices, including branches. It connects with all parts of the United States and Maritime Provinces, and with cables to Cuba and Europe, and trans mits messages to any of its stations at 20 cents for 10 words, or 15 cents between places not more than 12 miles apart. The Dominion Company extends from Cape Breton to Sarnia. Both lines connect with cables for Newfoundland, England, France, &c., for Prince Edward Island, the Island of Anticosti, the Magdalen Island, and the Island of Grand Manan. Postal Service.- -Canada enjoys the great year of $114,893. About 1500 decked ves sels and 17,000 open boats are engaged in the fisheries of the Dominion, employing some 42,000 men. The estimated number of persons supported, almost entirely, by this industry, in the various fishing commun ities, exceeds 200,000 souls. Commerce — According to the last report of the Minister of Customs, the gross value of goods imported into the Dominion of Canada, for the fiscal vear ending 30th June, 1880, was 886,489,747 ; the goods en tered for consumption during the same period and the value of exports giving a gross aggregate sum of $174,401,205 as the value of the trade of the Dominion with countries outside its boundaries.

CAN advantage of cheap postage and an excel lent system of postal communication. In 1851, the first great step towards cheap post age was taken by the introduction of a uni form postage rate of five cents. But it was not until 1868 that the nearest approach to the British penny post that can be expected ' was made by the establishment of a uni form rate oi three cents. The result has been highly satisfactory and encouraging. In Dr. Hodgins' " School History of Cana da " (published by Mr. John Lovell, in 1866), it is stated that " hi 1766, when the celebrated Benjamin Franklin was Deputy Postmaster General of British North Amer ica, there were only three post offices in Canada, and 180 miles of post route, from Montreal to Quebec. In 1791 there were ten post offices and 600 miles of post route ; in" 1830 there were 150 post offices and 2500 miles of post route ; in 1840 the number of offices had been increased to 405, and miles of post route to 5737." Since the yeafr 1840 the progressional growth of the department has continued until, by the report of the Postmaster General for 1880, we find that there were iu that year 5773 post offices, and 40,611 miles of post route, including British Columbia, Manitoba and' the North West Territory. The estimated number of letters by post in the year 1880 was 49,304,000, and of post cards, 7,800,000 ; gross postal reve nue, $1,648,017 ; postal expenditure, $2,286,- 611. Patents.— A new Patent Act was passed by the Dominion Parliament in 1872, which opened to all inventors, whether foreigners or residents of Canada, the privilege of tak ing out patents in Canada, on condition that the articles patented shall be manu factured in Canada. The opening of the Canadian Patent Office to foreigners has already led to many applications for patents by them ; and it is believed that the result will prove to be highly advantageous to rhe public, and particularly to the manufactur ing interests of the Dominion. The Act permits the patent to be issued for periods of five, ten or fifteen years at the option of the inventor. About 7 per cent, of the patents issued are for ten years ; about 10 per cent, for fifteen years ; and 83 per cent. for five years. Fisheries.— The fisheries of the Dominion are the finest in the world ; they are almost illimitable, and they are inexhaustible. The great variety and superior quality of the fish are as remarkable as the multitudes in which they are found, and supply a wealth that makes full amends for any rigor of climate or defects of soil on any of the coasts in their vicinity. As respects salmon there is a fishing line on the N. shore of the St. Lawrence of over a thousand miles in length, into which very numerous tributa ries flow. On the S. shore, taking in the coasts of the Maritime Provinces, it is of greater length. In British Columbia salmon are very abundant and of excellent quality. The aotual value of the produce of the fish eries of the Dominion for the season of 1880, for purposes of trade, was $9,570,116, being an excess over that of the preceding The chief items of exports for the year 1880, were : Produce of the Mine $ 2,981,613 " " Fisheries 6,653,347 " " Forest 17,666,693 Animals and their products 18,504,009 Agriculture 37,287,128 Manufactures 4,484,211 The following is an exhibit of the total number and tonnage of vessels built in the Dominion of Canada, and also of those registered in Canada, for the fiscal year end ing June 30, 1880 : Built.

The Dominion of Canada is, therefore, the fourth maritime power in the world. But, in proportion to population, she owns more tonnage than any other country. Education.— Canada has no national ays* tem of education. In Ontario the school system is a partial adaptation of the best features of the systems of New York, Mass achusetts, Ireland, and Germany, blended and modified to suit the circumstances of CAN LovelVs Gazetteer of [193] British North America. CAltf the country, hut differing also in several points of importance from all other school systems. Some of the chief points of dif ference are : 1. Religious instruction is pro vided. 2. The chief executive is a non- political and permanent officer. 3. It pro hibits the use of foreign books in the English branches of instruction, except by special permission, thus preventing he terogenous text books and those inimical to our institutions. 4. It provides for the sup- f>ly oE maps, school apparatus, prize and ibrary books, to all the schools, direct from the department, and grants 100 per cent, on local appropriations for such purposes. 5. It provides for the pensioning of superan nuated or worn out teachers. 6. It provides > for taking and recording meteorological observations at ten selected county gram mar schools, results being published peri odically. In 1871 the Legislature of On tario made all common schools in that province free, to be supported by Provin cial grants and local taxes, and made the education of children compulsory on par ents and guardians. The educational in stitutions of Ontario comprise 4598 public schools, 10a grammar schools, 298 private schools and academies, 20 colleges and uni versities, a college of technology, and a pro vincial model farm, with a school or college of agriculture. The educational institu tions of Quebec are divided into Superior, Secondary, Normal, Special, and Primary schools. The tirst division comprises the universities and schools of theology, law, and medicine. The second, classical col leges, industrial colleges and academies. Under the head Special come the deaf and dumb asylums, the agricultural colleges, and boards of arts and manufactures ; and under the head Primary all the elementary and model schools. The Protestant minor ity were in a very unfavorable position as far as their educational interests were con cerned until 1868, when a very satisfactory act was passed granting , them separate schools. In 1871 there were 4028 schools of all kinds in the Province of Quebec. Edu cation in Nova Scotia is not compulsory, but it is free to all classes. There is a Pro vincial Normal school for the training of teachers, and there are also academies, col leges, and common schools. The acade mies anil common schools are under the control of the Government ; the colleges are sectarian. There are nearly 1600 pub lic schools in the province, having nearly 100,000 pupils in daily attendance. In New Brunswick, a new School Act was passed in 1871. By it school trustees of each dis trict are bound to provide school accommo dation for all persons therein, between the ages of 5 and 20, free of charge. In addition to the provincial grant,a tax is levied in each county equal to 30 cents per head, and a local fund sufficient for the purpose of car rying out the law (including a poll-tax of $1 per head) is raised by the localities. Serious objection has been raised to this f act by the Roman Catholic population, who desire to use their own taxes for schools under their own management. 13 and not subject to the government in spection, examination of teachers, regu lations respecting text hooks, &c. The educational institutions supported by law ' are a Provincial University, a Training or Normal school for teachers, and a system of common schools ranging from the primary to the grammar or high school department. The common schools are non-sectarian and free to all. The schools in Prince Edward Island are free to all. Excellent school sys tems have been provided for Manitoba and British Columbia. Religious instruction forms part of the common school system of each section of the Dominion. Religious Denominations.— There is no State Religion in the Dominion of Canada, all denominations being regarded equally by the Government. The clergy depend for subsistence upon the voluntary contribu tions of their congregations or upon funds appropriated for this purpose. The princi pal sects are the Episcopalians, Roman Catholics, Presbyterians, Methodists, Bap tists, and Congre Rationalists. There are 14 Church of England dioceses in Canada, viz. : the Metropolitical diocese of Montreal and the dioceses of Nova Scotia, Fred ericton, Quebec, Ontario, Toronto, Niagara, Huron, Algoma, Rupert's Land, British Col umbia, Moosonee, Saskatchewan, and Atha basca. There are 19 Roman Catholic dio ceses, viz. : the archdioceses of Halifax, Que bec, Toronto, and St. Boniface (Manitoba), and the dioceses of Montreal, Rimouski, Three Rivers, Sherbrooke, St. Hyacinthe, Chicoutimi, Ottawa, Kingston, Hamilton, London, Arichat, St. John (N.B.), Chatham (N.B.), Charlottetown (P.E.I.), Satala (Red River), aud Anemour (Mackenzie River). The following table taken from the census of 1M71. shows the various religious denomi nations and the number of their communi cants in the provinces of Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick : Church of England 494,049 Church of Rome 1,492,029 Church of Scotland 107,259 Presbyterians 437,439 Baptists j 239,343 "Wesleyan Methodists 378,543 Episcopal Methodists 93,958 New Connexion Methodists.. . 32,436 Congregation alists 21,829 Bible Christians 18,544 Unitarians 2,275 Other Denominations 144,122 Jews 1.115 Without Creed, &c 22,620 Total 3,485,716 Public Works. —The public works of the Dominion consist of a canal and railway system, together with certain public build ings. The canal system was devised to overcome the impediments to navigation found in the St. Lawrence, and connect with the Great Lakes and Great West, The canals of the Dominion are as follows : Name.

The public buildings main tained by the Dominion are the Houses of Parliament and Governor's residence at Ottawa, and all custom houses, post oifices, drill sheds, barracks, &c, also 2 geological museums, observatories, and all lighthouses in the Dominion. It also maintains harbors of refuge, public roads, and slides and booms. It has 3 sea-going and 2 river steamers, and 6 marine police schooners, employed in protecting the fish eries. Divisions.— The Dominion of Canada is composed of 8 Provinces and the Nortli. West Territories. The area of the several provinces with their population, in 1861 and 1871, is shown in the following table : Area. Population. Province. sq. miles. 1861. 1871. 107,780 1,396,091 1,620,851 193,355 1,111,566 1,191,516 Nova Scotia 21,731 330,857 387,800 New Brunswick. 27,322 252,047 285,594 British Col'mbia 213,500 34,816 50,000 P.E.Island 2,134 80,861 94,021 14,340 11,953 Keewatin N.W.

Guelph, Brant ford, Belleville and Sherbrooke are also cities. Immigration.— The number of immigrants who have arrived.and settled in Canada is much less than the number who have hith erto gone to the United States ; but the probability is that within the next 50 years the balance will be redressed, from the fact that the United States have already "dis posed of their large tracts of fertile lands, while Canada is opening up immense and fertile territories for the settler. The really cultivable area of the United States is confined within much smaller limits thau is generally supposed, from the fact that im mense and wide deserts are found in place of cultivable territory, with comparatively very little exception, over all the region west of the 100th degree of west longi tude, to the base of the Rocky Moun tains. Canada, on the other hand, hall yet an immense extent of fertile terri tory unsettled, which can absorb many mil lions of settlers. As regards the land sys tem of the Dominion it may be stated that in the provinces of Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, -new Brunswick and British (jolum- bia, with the exception of a tract in the last- named Province ceded to the Dominion for the purpose of the Pacific railway, the lands are held by the several Provincial govern ments. In several of the provinces free grants are given to immigrants, and in almost all cases in which government laud is for sale, it is offered at prices which are merely nominal. The lands in the province of Manitoba and the North West Territories are held by the Dominion Government, which at present gives free grants of 160 acres in Manitoba on condition of settle ment. Dominion lands are also sold for $1 per acre. The total area of lands, the pro perty of the Dominion; exclusive of Labra dor and the Islands in the Arctic sea, is computed to be 2,207,725 square miles, or 1,412,304,000 acres. Of this 32,000,000 acres are mostly unfit for cultivation, 76,800,000 acres are prairie lands with occasional groves or belts of timber, 298,384,000 acres are timber lands with occasional prairies, all of it suitable for the growth of wheat and other cereals, 594,048,000 acres suitable for the cultivation or barley, potatoes ana the grasses, and with sufficient timber, and 411,072,000 acres rock and swamp, in which the timber growth disappears, and which may be considered as the fur-bearing region. Surveys of the whole of this immense tract are being prosecuted. Government.— The system of government of the Dominion of Canada is monarchical in its most popular form. The Executive consists of a Governor General (who repre sents the Queen), a Privy Council composed of 13 members, a Senate of 80 members, ap pointed for life, and a House .of Commons of 208 representatives, elected every 5 years. No bill can become law unless sanctioned by the three branches. The Governor Gen eral is Commander-in-Chief of the army and militia, and of the navy in British North American waters : and has the sole pardon ing power. The Dominion is divided into CAN Lovell's Gazetteer of [195) British North America. CAN judges ; in Nova Scotia, 1 chief justice, 6 puisne judges, and T county judges ; and in Prince Edward Island, 1 chief justice and 3 puisne judges. Salaries. — The Governor General of the Dominion of Canada receives $47,517.55 per annum, and is provided with a residence at the Capital, also with secretaries, aides-de camp, clerks, and messengers. Tho Lieu tenant Governors of Ontario and Quebec re ceive $10,000 per annum, and those of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Manitoba, British Columbia, and .the North West Territories, $8000 Ser annum. The chief justices of the 'ominion receive $5000 per annum, and the puisne judges $4000 ; Senators and Commoners, $8 a day, or$1000 each session; members of the Privy Council, $7000 per annum, except the premier, who receives $8000. Revenue.— The revenue of the Dominion is derived from imports on foreign mer chandise, excise, public works (including railways), post offices and bill stamps. - Indians. — The Indians in the Dominion of Canada are under the superintendence of the Minister of the Interior, who is the Superintendent General of Indian Affairs, and as such has the control and manage ment of the lands aud property of In dians. The persons deemed Indians are : 1. All persons of Indian blood, reputed to belong to the particular tribe, band or body of Indians interested in such lauds or im movable property, and their descendants. 2. All persons residing among suchlndians, whose parents were, or are, or either of them was or is, descended on either side from Indians or an Indian reputed to be long to the particular tribe interested in such lands, and the descendants of all such persons. 3. All women lawfully married to any of the persons included in the above classes, the children, issue of such mar riages, and their descendants. None but persons deemed Indians are permitted to settle on Indian lands. From the statement of population contained in the last official report (1872) it appears that the Indian tribes of Ontario num ber 12,886 ; of Quebec, 8657 ; of Nova 12 military districts. The law requires that every able bodied man be enrolled for its defence. An enrolment takes place each year in February. Judiciary. — The laws and forms of judi cial procedure are not alike throughout the Dominion. The law of Quebec is derived in great part from French sources. At the time of the conquest it consisted, for the most part, of the Coutumede Paris, and the Edicts and Ordinances of the French kings. Where these were silent the Civil (Roman) Law was appealed to, as furnishing rules of written reason. In certain matters the Canon Law was also in force. Upon the acquisition of the country by Great Britain, the English Constitutional and. Criminal Laws were introduced, the English form of wills allowed, aud English rules respecting evidence in commercial cases established. All these laws have from time to ¦ time been modified by the Imperial and Cana dian Parliaments. The Code Civil de Quebec now supersedes all but the English and Statutory Criminal Law. In 1791, the French Canadian Law was repealed in On tario (then Upper Canada) and in its place was substituted the laws of England. The common law of England is the law of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and British Columbia. The laws of Manitoba are the same as those of Quebec. The Courts of Justice in Ontario are a Court of Error and Appeal, Court of Queen's Bench, Court of Common Pleas, Court of Chancery, Court of Impeachment, Court of Quarter Sessions, Practice Court, Heir and Devisee Court, County Courts, Division Courts and Recorders' Courts. Those in Quebec are a Court of Queen's Bench, Superior Court, Circuit Court, Court of Vice Admiralty, Court of Quarter Sessions, Court of Special Sessions, and Recorder's Court. Those in New Bruns wick are a Supreme Court, Court of Vice Admiralty ? Court for the trial and punishment of Piracy, Probate Court, Court of Marriage and Divorce, Inferior Court of Common Pleas and General Sessions of the Peace, and Justice Courts. Those in Nova Scotia are a Supreme Court, Court of Vice Admiralty, Court of Error, Court of Probate, Court of Marriage and Divorce, Court of General Sessions of the Peace,' and Justice Courts. Those in Prince Edward Island are a Supreme Court of Chancery, Court of Vice Admiralty, Court of Marriage and Divorce, Court of Probate and "Wills, and .Insolvent Court. In Manitoba there is a Court of Queen's Bench composed of 1 chief and 2 assistant justices' ; and in British Columbia a Supreme Court with 1 chief and 4 assistant justices. The Supreme Courts and Courts of Queen's Bench are the highest in the Dominion. An appeal lies from their ¦ decisions in certain cases to the Supreme Court at Ottawa or to the Privy Council in England. There are in Ontario 3 chief justices, 1 chancellor, 5 puisne judges, 2 vice chancellors, and 5 county judges; in Que. Scotia, 1,835 ; of New Brunswick, 1324; of British Columbia, 28,520 ; and of the North West Territories, 50^000. The most popu lous tribes in Ontario are the Six Nation Indians, who, in 1870, were estimated at 2868 ; the Chippewas of Lake Huron, esti mated at 1846; the Chippewas of Lake Superior, estimated at 1502 ; and the Mani- toulin Island Indians, estimated at 1,601. The IroquoiB, or Six Nation Indians of Ontario, are chiefly descendants of the Iro quois who adhered to the royal cause during the American Revolution, and who settled in Upper Canada when the- American col onies established their independence. They obtained a large grant of land on the Grand river. In the province of Quebec, the larg est bodies are the Nasquapees of the Lower St. Lawrence, numbering 2860, and the Iroquois of Sault St. Louis, numbering 1650. In New Brunswick, at Indian Vii- CAN Lovell's Gazetteer of [196] British North America. CAN lage, Indian 'Point, opposite Fredericton, is located a body numbering about 300. There are also about 400 in Northumberland and 265 in Kent. In Nova Scotia, there are a few in every county. The aboriginal in habitants of the country lying between Bed Biver andtheKocky Mountains are divided into two great classes, the Prairie Indians and Thickwood Indians — the first compris ing the Blackfeet with then: kindred tribes of Bloods, .Lurcees, and Peagins ; as also the Orees of the Saskatchewan and the Assiniboines of the Qu'Appelle ; and the last composed of the Bocky Mountain Stonies, the Swampy Crees, and the Sault- eaux of the country lying between Mani toba and Port Ellice. The Prairie Indians live on bullalo, and in large camps, and are warlike ; the Thickwood Indians live on deer, &c, in small parties, and are peace able. The Blackfeet occupy the immense tract of country between the Saskatchewan and the frontier, a large portion of which is arid aud sandy, being a true extension of the great American desert, which extends from the fertile belt of the Saskatchewan to the borders of Texas. It thus happens that the most active trading relations of the Blackfeet are more easily carried on with the Americans on the Upper Missouri, and the product of their robes, &c, generally finds its way down the waters of the Mis souri. In British Columbia Indians are found over the whole province. They are generally quiet, peaceable, and very intelli gent, with great natural power of obser vation. A large number of them are in structed by Anglican and Boman Catholic missionaries. There are about fifty schools for Indian children established in the Dominion, principally in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec. Some of the teachers are paid out of the Indian fund ; others are supported by various societies. The num ber of pupils is about 2,000. Among the functions of the Indian Department are the distribution of seed and agricultural imple ments ; the erection of school houses ; the relief of the aged and infirm ; and other like acts of charity and assistance. History.— Canada has its name from the Iroquois word Kanata, signifying a collec tion of huts, and which the early European discoverers mistook for the name of the country. It was first discovered, in 1497, by Sebastian Cabot, and partly explored by Jacques Cartier between 1535 and 1543 ; but the first settlement made by Europeans was in 1605, at Port Boyal, Acadia (now Anna polis, Nova Scotia), by de Monts, a French man. In 1608 a permanent settlement was made by Champlain upon the present site of Quebec, Canada being then called New France. The mode of colonisation was semi-religious. Bands of Jesuit and Becol- let missionaries penetrated the country in all directions, endeavoring to convert the Indians to the Christian faith. Garrisoned forts were erected at all the prominent points, and the ensuing century was check ered by contests with the Indians, espe cially the Iroquois, a fierce tribe which continually harassed the French, the latter being aided by the less powerful Hurons. Between 1614 and 1713 Acadia was several times taken by the British and restored to Prance, but in the last namedyear it finally became a British possession, together with Newfoundland. The French then erected strong fortifications at JLouisburg cape Bretou, but these were also taken by the British. The first Legislature of Nova Scotia met in 1758. In the following year the illustrious Wolfe captured Quebec, and three years later French power in this quar ter of the globe ceased. Afterthe takingof Quebec the country was placed under milp. tary rule. The French Canadians were guaranteed the free use of their religiou, and their clergy remained in the enjoyment of their former rights. The ancient crim inal law was, however, superseded by the criminal law of England. In 1774 a Legis lative Council, composed of 23 members, was appointed to assiBt the governor. The American revolution soon after convulsed the continent, and Canada was again the theatre of contending hosts. The Ameri can army of invasion advanced without much difficulty over large tracts of the country, but received a check at Quebec, where Montgomery fell in 1775. In 1784 the S resent limits of New Brunswick' were ivided from those of Nova Scotia, and erected into a separate province by a special constitutional charter, the administration of which was confided to Colonel Carleton. The first Legislature of New Brunswick met ¦in 1785. In 1791 Quebec was divided into two provinces, and representative govern ment introduced, an event which, though far from satisfying the French Canadian party, was, nevertheless, a step in that direction. The first Legislature of Lower Canada met in 1791, that of Upper Canada in 1792. In 1812 Canada was again disturbed by the war between Great Britain and the United States, but at its close the colony still remained in close connection with the mother country. In 1822 a project for re uniting Upper and Lower Canada was started. Attempts were made to render the advisers of the governors responsible to the popular branch of the Legislature. For some time these efforts were unsuc cessful, and the fierceness of the struggle greatly excited the colony. In 1837 the agi tation was fanned into open violence, and several engagements ensued between the insurgents and royalists. But the years 1840 and 1841 restored tranquillity, the two Canadas being re-united in 1840, by an Im perial Act, under one administration, and responsible government being definitely established in 1841. The executive con sisted of a Legislative Council, to which the elective principle was applied, a Legis lative Assembly composed of 130 members, , 65 from each Section of the province, a .,' Cabinet responsible to the Legislature, ; and a Governor General appointed by the • Queen. The first united parliament met at Kingston in June, 1841. In 1844 the Gov ernment removed to Montreal. In 1849 the parliament buildings there were destroyed by a mob. The seat of government was at CAN Lovell's Gazetteer of [191) British North America. CAN once removed to Toronto, and it was ar ranged to hold the sessions of the legislature for four years alternately in Toronto and Quebec. This system being attended with much inconvenience, Parliament resolved on a permanent site, hut, being unable to agree on one, left the selection in the hands of the Queen, who, in 1858, fixed on Ottawa. Party government about this time became well' nigh impossible. In the successive elections which had been held during the preceding years it was found that the hos tile majority from either province in the legislature had increased rather than dimin ished. In 1861 the feeling of antagonism came to a crisis , b u i as the sequel will sho w it was only the thick darkness which preceded the dawning of a brighter day, for out of this crisis grew the Dominion of Canada. As a remedy for the existing difficulties the Reform leaders made overtures to Sir John A. Macdonald suggesting the adoption of a federative system. These overtures were cordially received and a Coalition Govern ment was formed pledged to the introduc tion of such a scheme. By a fortunate coincidence, within a month rafter the for mation of the ministry a conference was being arranged at Charlottetown for the purpose of discussing the expediency of a union of the Provinces of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island under one government and one legislature. The Canadian. Government asked permission to send delegates ; their request was grant ed, and on the 18th of September, 1864, they met the Maritime delegates. The confer ence had met to discusa a Legislative Union— a question with which the Cana dian delegates had no authority to deal. The proposal to unite the Maritime Prov inces was looked upon as impracticable ; but the delegates were unanimously of opinion that a union on a larger basis might be effected. The Canadian dele gates proposed a further Conference to consider the possibility of a Federal Union, which was agreed to, and the Conference adjourned to meet again at Quebec on the 10th of October. On the day appointed it met, and after a session of 18 days the scheme of Confederation was placed before the public. This scheme was, after a time, accepted by the Legislatures of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Canada, but not by Newfoundland or Prince Edward Island. Delegates were then sent to England, the Union Act was submitted to the Imperial Parliament, passed that body on the 28th of March, 1867, and on the 22nd day of May Her Majesty's proclamation was issued de claring that the Dominion of Canada should come into existence on the 1st of July, 1867. By this Act " old " Canada was divided into the two provinces of Ontario and Quebec. In 1870 the Government of the Dominion was extended over the North West Terri tories (out of which the Provinces of Mani toba and Keewatin were erected), in 1871 over British Columbia, and in 1873 over Prince Edward Island. The island of Newfoundland is still out in the cold, but only for a short time. Its destiny is inev itable : it must form part of the Dominion of Canada, "the brightest jewel in the British crown."

CAPE BRETON, an island at the eastern extremity of Nova Scotia, mostly between lat. 45° and 47° 5' N., and Ion. 60° and 61" 30' W. Extreme length from north to south 100 miles ; extreme breadth 85 miles ; area 3120 square miles. The first settlement in this island (which was united under the same government with Nova Scotia in 1819) was made in 1712 by the French. It had been discovered by Cabot in 1497. Previous to the year 1700 it had been frequented only by fur traders and fishermen. After the loss of Acadia the French turned their at tention to this island, and began to build fortifications at Louisburg, which continued to be the capital for many years, the gov ernment being modelled on that of Quebec. War having again been declared between France and England. Governor Shirley, of Massachusetts, formed the design of taking Louisburg, though the place was supposed to be almost impregnable. ' The expedition sailed from Boston, and arrived at Canso on the 6th April, 1745. The reinforcements despatched by the French were captured by &e English Admiral, and Louisburg was finally forced to capitulate. The Acadians in great alarm sent to France for help, and an expedition was got up to reconquer Aca dia and Cape Breton. But the hostile fleet met with terrible disasters. Wrecked and dispersed by violent storms, and the crews thinned by epidemic, the expedition accom plished nothing, and only a remnant re turned to France. By the treaty of Aix-la- Chapelle in 1748, Cape Breton was restored to France, but it was soon after finally at tached to the British possessions. The4s- land is very irregularly shaped, being'tri- CAP Lovell's Gazetteer of [199] British North America. CAP angular, and is greatly indented with bays. An i inlet, called Bras d'Or (i.e., arm of gold), entering Cape Breton on the east nearly separates it into two islands; render ing every part of itB interior accessible by water. The two natural divisions thus created are in striking contrast, the north ern portion being high, bold and steep ; While that to the south is low, intersected by numerous inlets, diversified with mod erate elevations, and rises gradually from its interior shore until it presents abrupt cliffs toward the Atlantic Ocean. The high est land in this portion does not exceed 800 feet, while the northern division at its ter mination in North Cape rises to the height, pf 1800 feet. Between North Cape and Cape Ray on the opposite coast of Newfound land, 48 miles distant, is the main entrance to the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The Bras d'Or Lake is 50 miles in length and 20 miles in breadth. Its depth of water varies from 12 to 60 fathoms, and it is very secure and nav igable. In several of its large bays the tim ber ships from England receive their car goes. There are several fresh water lakes, and numerous rivers, but none navigable. Salt springs are found on the coast. The climate is varied, but not so rigorous as that on the adjoining continent. Vegeta tion is very rapid. Maize and other grains are raised ; but the corn produced is insuf ficient for home consumption. Marble, granite, lime stone and primitive slates prevail ; and gypsum, salt and coal are found, the latter in great abundance and of a superior quality. The coal deposits of Cape Breton occupy not less than 120 square miles. There are also rich deposits of the best iron ore and gold. Cape Breton has long been celebrated for its fisheries, and its forests furnish large .quantities of excellent ship timber. Ship building constitutes an important and lucrative business. Cape Breton has as yet no railway commu nication with Nova Scotia proper, but a line is projected between New Glasgow and Louisburg, one of the finest harbors in the world. This railway (the Halifax and Cape Breton) is completed between New Glasgow and the Strait of Can so, a distance of 79 miles . Louisburg is about 200 miles nearer Europe than Halifax, and as a coaling depot it would be unequalled on account of the cheapness of coal. A short railway of ten miles now connects the coal mines with the port of Sydney, but the several companies are ar ranging to build a line to Louisburg so as to ship at all seasons. As coal only costs $1.25 a ton at the pit mouth, it will only add 50 cents to the ton to be delivered at Louisburg. Cane Breton is divided into four counties,Richmond,Inverness, Victoria and Cape Breton, and sends 8 members to the Provincial Legislature, and 5 to the House of Commons. Pop.

Hamilton, at that time and for many years afterwards member of Parliament for Gore district. It is built on a plateau of slightly elevated ground, winding around the foot of a hilly range, which extends from Ni agara Fails, and which here receives the name of " The Mountain." The streets are wide, and for the most part cross each other at right angles, those extending back from the Bay having a direction nearly south and north. King street, the principal thoroughfare, runs E. and W. throughout the entire breadth of the town. Near the centre of the street is a large open space, and a little north is Market Square, on which stands a spacious building, occupied in the lower part as a market, while its up per storeys are appropriated to the various purposes of the city government. Court House Square, an area containing the county buildings, lies between King street and the mountain. The new court house, erected 1878, is one of the finest edifices of the kind in the Dominion. The banks and many of the churches and stores are handsome structures. On the rising ground approaching the mountain are many elegant residences. . The city contains 23 churches, viz : 5 Episcopal (1 cathedral), 1 Eoman Catholic cathedral, 4 Presbyterian, 4 Wesleyan Methodist, 2 Methodist Episcopal, 1 New Connexion Methodist, 1 Congregational, 2 Baptist, 1 German Lutheran, 1 Primitive Methodist, 1 Plymouth Brethren, and a Jewish Synagogue, and also the head oflice of the Bank of Hamilton, 5 branch banks, a number of assurance and insurance agen cies, a mechanics institute, a reading room, 2 telegraph agencies, a Wesleyan Female College, and several academies and schools, several saw and grist mills, and manufacto ries of iron castings, machinery of every description, agricultural implements, sew ing machines, musical instruments, glass ware, woodenware, woollen and cotton goods, soap and candles, boots and shoes, leather, brooms, brushes, &c.

Its exact boundary line is still an unsettled question. During the past two years important dis coveries of gold and other minerals have been made ; and on islands in the Lake of the Woods unusually rich, veins of gold- bearing quartz have been found. Silver, copper, aud coal have been found. The timber in this province, which is thickly wooded, is not large, and comprises oak, spruce, and tamarac, but upon this resource will the prosperity of the province greatly depend, adjoining as it does a prairie country. Several large mills are in operation. Timber limits have been taken up, and from this quarter Winnipeg and other towns and cities will draw their supply of wood and timber. The Canada Pacific railway has been constructed as far east as Rat Portage, on the Lake of the Woods, and the probable boundary of the province, 140 miles from Winnipeg. It is expected that in the sum mer of 1881 through communication wiU be had with Thunder Bay. Rat Portage is a thriving little village, containing 100 build ings, and is fast becoming a milling and mining centre.

KINGSTON, a city of Ontario, at one tune capital of Upper Canada, situated at the outlet of Lake Ontario, 172 miles W. of Montreal. Dat- 44° 12' N., Ion. 76° 41' W The city occupies the site of old Fort Fron-. tenac, on the N. E. shore of the river, oppo site Wolfe Island, having the harbor and shipping in front. The harbor is formed at the mouth of Cataraqui River, which here enters the lake. The west shore is bold, and shipping of any size may lie here in perfect safety. East of the bay the land projects southward, terminating in Point Frederick, or Navy Island, beyond which is Haldimand Cove, a deep basin of water, protected by this point on the west, and Point Henry on the east, and guarded fi-om southerly winds by Wolfe Island in front. Kingston is, after Quebec and Halifax, the strongest fort in the Dominion of Canada. There is a fort on Messessaga Point, and all other accessible points are secured by bat teries. There are extensive military works on Nary Point, and on Point Henry is a fortress which completely commands the harbor and town. A long bridge across Cataraqui Bay connects Kingston with Pittsburg, besides which there are the sub urbs of Barriefield, French Village, and Williamsville. The city is regularly laid out with streets crossing each other at right angles. It is chiefly built of blue lime stone, which underlies the town. The streets are lighted with gas, and the houses are partly supplied with water from the bay and partly from wells. Wells of min eral water, composed chiefly of chloride of sodium and calcium, have been obtained in three instances by boring to the depth of 145, 85, and 75 feet respectively.

A settlement was begun here by the French, under De Courcelles, as early as 1672, under the name of Fort Cataraqui, and the fort subsequently received the name of Fort Frontenac in honor of the French count of that name. This fort was after wards in the possession of the French and the Indians, until it was destroyed by the i expedition under Colonel Bradstreet in 1758. In 1762 the place fell into the hands of the British, from whom it received its present name. It was incorporated a city in 1838.

LABRADOR, an extensive peninsula on the E. coast of British North America, lat. from 50° to 65° N., and Ion. 56° to 78° W., bounded on the south-east and east by the GulfofSt.Lawrenee and the Atlantic; on the north and west by Hudson's Strait and Hud son's Bay; and on the south-west by Rupert's River, Lake Mistassini and BetsiamiteB Eiver. Extreme length 1100 miles ; breadth 470 miles. Area estimated at 450,000 square miles ; or about equal to the British Mauds, France and Prussia combined. Blanc Sablon, near the mouth of the North West Biver, is the eastern boundary of the Cana dian part of this great peninsula, which In cludes the whole area drainingjnto the Biver and Gulf of St Lawrence. The portion be longing to Newfoundland is roughly defined as that which is drained by rivers flowing into the Atlantic The remaining area, draining into Hudson's Bay, is called East Main, and is included in the North West • Territories of the Dominion of Canada. The interior of Labrador is very imper fectly known. Professor Hind, who ex plored it, describes it Urns : " The table land is 2210 feet above the ocean at the sources of the east branch of the Moisic. It is pre-eminently sterile, and where the country is not burned cariboo moss eoverB the rocks. In The hollows and deep ravines are to be found stanted spruee, birch ana aspens. The whole of -me table-land is strewed wifli an infinite number of boul ders, BometimeB flnee and four deep. These singular erratics are perehed on the enmrnit of every mountain and hill, often onihe edges of cliffs, and they vary in size from one foot to twenty feet in diameter. Wfr mage fails to pafait the awful debclattan of &e table-land of 1foe Labrador penfasnla." The principal water shed is formed by the Wotchish mountains sending the water which gathers on its side West North and East. The principal rivers are the East Main or Stude, which flows nearly due west into the south-east extremity of James's Bay ; the Great and Little Whale Rivers, which flow in the same direction, and fall into the south-east ex tremity of Hudson's Bay j the Kenoganissee and ICoksoak, which, flowing respectively north-east and north-west, unite their streams and fall into the Ungava or South Bay, off the S. E. of Hudson's Strait ; and the Meschickemau or North West River, which flows east into the Strait of Bellelsle. The lakes are very numerous, almost every river forming several by expanding during its course. The largest are Clear water, in the west, which discharges itself by a stream of the same name into Hudson's Bay; Mistassini in the south, and Meschickemau, an expansion of the river of the same name. The prevailing rocks on the coast are granite, gneiss and mica-slate. Above these, in some parts, is a bed of old red sandstone, about 200 feet thick, followed by secondary limestone. Towards the interior, the sec ondary formations disappear, and the pri mary become predominant. The surface, when seen at a distance from the sea, has a green and alluvial appearance, but is found, on examination, to be covered with moss and stunted shrubs. In the valleys, where the soil is sandy, and the temperature con siderably above the average. Juniper, birch and poplar trees are found growing, and form a covert during the summer for deer, bears, wolves, foxes, martens, otters, &c., till the approach of winter drives them to the coast. , M The climate is too severe to ripen any of the ordinary cereals. Barley, sown and cut green, makes excellent fodder ; potatoes and several species of culinary vegetables are said to do welL The whole of this vast wilderness is uninhabited by civilized man, with the exception of a few settlements on the St. Lawrence and Atlantic coasts, and some widely separated posts of the Hudson's Bay Company. Wandering tribes of Esqui maux occupy the northern coast of Labra dor while nomadic tribes of Naskapees, Mistassini and Montagnais Indians are thinly scattered over the interior. Tlie ex ports, which are chiefly through Newfound land, are codfish, salmon, seal and whale oUand f uts- Once the ©ountry was raeh m fur-bearing animals and cariboo or reindeer, but these are now greatly reduced In num bers. Of the eastern side hardly anything is known beyond the coast, which has been earefuHy surveyed by Capt. Bayfield. Be fore his day it was on this bleak and danger ous coast that the great navigator, Captain Cook, first displayed those talents ae i a ma rine "surveyor which rained for him the patronage of Sir Hugh PaJliser, and drew frattie attention to bis extraordinary enter prise His eharts of Newfoundland, Labra dor and the Straits of Belleisle are, to this nayl a convincing proof of his fidelity, genius and discernment. LAB LovelVs Gazetteer of [280] British North America. LAC The Indians who Inhabit the interior of Labrador are all tribes of the once great Al gonquin race, whose domains extended, be fore the arrival of the " pale faces," from the Rocky Mountains to Newfoundland, and from Labrador to the Carolinas. The abori gines of Newfoundland belonged to this wide-spread race of red men. The Mon- tagnais or Mountaineers, as they are com monly called, occupied the1 country along the lower St. Lawrence and the Gulf ; the Scoffis Naskapees and Mistassini are the Al- gonquins of Labrador proper, and co-termi- nous with the Esquimaux The Mountain eers, or "Hunting Indians" of Labrador, once formed a " great nation," and could bring into the field a thousand warriors to repel the incursions of the Esquimaux, with whom they were constantly at war, and for whom they have still a bitter hatred and contempt. They are slothful when not excited by war or the chase, cruel, revengeful and supersti tious. Nearly all of them, like the Micmacs of Nova Scotia, profess the Roman Catholic faith ; but they have imbibed little of the spirit of Christianity. They bring down furs to the settlements on the coast, and ex change them for ammunition and clothing. In the use of firearms they are very expert ; but they are frequently compelled, by a scarcity of ammunition, to recur for support to their original weapons, the bow and ar row, and with these they can kill a flying partridge at forty yards distance. Their canoes are made of birch-bark, and their sledges of a thin birch board, shod with slips of bone. The Mountaineers draw their own sledges, as their dogs are but small and used only for the purpose of hunting. The Esquimaux of Labrador live almost entirely by fishing. They are partially Chris tianized and civilized through the praise worthy exertions of Moravian missionaries. They exchange furs, oil and whalebone for ammunition, guns and clothing at the Euro pean settlements. They are mild, hospita ble and honest. They are well provided with a peculiar breed of dogs, voracious and fierce, and so like wolves that they might easily be mistaken for these animals. In winter the Esquimau travel with these dogs over the snow at the rate of from six to ten miles an hour ; each sledge is drawn by ten or twelve dogs, yoked two and two, a pair of the most sagacious being placed in front as leaders, and the whole guided by a long whip, without reins, the lash extending to the foremost dogs. Their huts are, in winter, embanked with turf and moss, excepting a small casement of oiled sealskin at the top. Without any fire but a lamp, these inhabita tions are as warm as an oven. The passion ate attachment of the Esquimaux to their frozen seas and icy plains is wonderful. They infinitely prefer their storm-beaten shores to the gentle- waves and cerulean skies of more temperate regions- It is clear that they are a totally different race from the Red Indians of America. The Esqui maux are stunted in stature and essentially Mongolian in physiognomy, having a flat tened nose, prominent profile and copper- colored skin. It is remarkable that the Esquimaux is the only family common to the Old World and the New. During the brief Labrador summer the whole coast, for five hundred miles north of the Straits of Belleisle, swarms with fisher men from Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, Quebec, and the United States. They are engaged in the capture and cure of cod, salmon and herring. The total value of these fisheries is not less than a million ster ling. Most of the fishermen who frequent Labrador in summer are from Newfound land. They proceed to the various fishing stations along the coast, in small vessels, often taking their families along with them, and reside ashore in temporary nuts. They arrive about the end of June, when the ice is pretty well cleared away from the coast, and remain till the first or second week in October. A considerable part of the cod, salmon and herring is shipped by the sup plying merchants direct from Labrador to foreign ports, but more of it is taken to St. John's, Harbor Grace, and other places, where it is stored to be shipped according to the demand of foreign markets. Bleak and savage as are the shores of Labrador, yet their appearance or aspect is often picturesque and grand, and sometimes strangely beautiful. At Cape Chateau is a series of basaltic columns wrought into the shape of an an cient castle (nence its name), the turrets, arches, loop-holes and keeps all beautifully represented. Here are materials for an ar tist not less attractive than the renowned Cave of Fingal. The famous Labrador feld spar is well known, and is abundant near the European settlements on the southern portion of the peninsula of Labrador. Labrador was discovered by Cabot in 1496 ; and re-discovered by Hudson in 1610- The European settlements, all on the east coast, consist of Forteau and Bradore Bays, Anse Le Blanc, and the Moravian stations Main, Okhak. Hopedale and Hebron. The Hud son's Bay Company have several settlements In Labrador, and receive many valuable furs from it. The total population is supposed to be about 5000. LABRADOR, the N.

LAURENTIAN MOUNTAINS, a range of mountains extending fronTLabrador to the Arctic Ocean ; whole course about 3500 miles. It gives the water shed separating the tributaries of the St. Lawrence from those of Hudson's Bay ; but beyond the. basin of the St. Lawrence it is traversed by two affluents of Hudson's Bay, the Saskat chewan and the Churchill, the former taking its source in the Rocky Mountains, while still farther on it becomes the limit of the Hudson's Bay rivers, dividing their sources and those of the Back and other streams, for 800 miles, from the tributaries of the Mackenzie. The general elevation of the Laurentian range is from 1500 to 1600 feet ; some peaks about the Saguenay at tain a height of 4000 feet.

The valleys are in general not very wide, and many are worn into deep pits holding ponds and lakes ; some streams indeed are nothing more from their sources to their mouths than a chain of such quiet expansions united by short discharging channels. The prodigious number of these sheets of water, great and small, bespangling the whole area, is one of its most remark able features, and when looked upon as displayed on a map they appear so scattered at random over the surface as to contradict almost any supposed law of distribution.

The names of some of the principal of them are Amherst, Grindstone, Delight, Grosse Isle, Coffin's, Byron's Entry. Coffin's Island, the largest of the group, is 25 miles long, but very narrow. Amherst Island is nearly 6 miles in length and 3% in width, and contains the best harbor in the chain. Gypsum is found in the hollows and basins of the island, and occasionally in veins. This mineral forms an important article of export. The principal depend ence of the inhabitants is upon the cod fisheries, although they prosecute herring and seal fishing to some extent. The Mag dalen Islands were formerly attached to the government of Newfoundland, but at 8 resent are under the jurisdiction of the anadian Government, and belong to the electoral district of Gaspe\ They were granted by the British Government to Ad miral Sir Isaac Coffin, for distinguished services, and by him were bequeathed in strict entail to his nephew, Captain, now Rear Admiral, John Townsend Coffin, the present proprietor, and to his heirs forever. There is a custom house on Amherst Island, and occasionally a revenue cutter is sta tioned to protect the fisheries and maintain the civil authority.

MANITOULIN, a group of islands in the province of Ontario, stretching from E. to W. along the N. shore of Lake Huron, and consisting chiefly of the Great Manitoulin or Sacred Isle, Little Manitoulin or Cock- burn, and Drummond. Great Manitoulin, 30 miles long by 20 miles broad, has an area of 1,600 square miles, is deeply indented by numerous bays, and has an elevated and very rugged surface. Many of the preci pices are covered with clun ps of beautiful trees ; and behind, in the interior, are large and dense pine forests. Little Manitoulin has a diameter of about 7 miles, and, in its general-features, resembles Great Manitou lin. The channel between them is about 8 miles long and 4 broad. Drummond, 24 miles long, with a breadth varying from 2 to 12 miles, has an irregular surface, covered with large masses of rock. It is separated from the American shore on the W. by a stiait called the True Detour, which is scarcely 1 mile wide and forms the principal passage for vessels proceeding to Lake Su perior. Pop. 2011. x MANITOBA, a province of the Dominion of Canada, bounded on the S. by the United States, and on theN.E. andW. by theNorth West Territories of the Dominion. "It ex tends from 49° to 50° 30' N. lat., and from 96° to 99° W- Ion., and comprises an area of 14,340 square miles, or 9.177,600 acres. The name Manitoba, taken from a large lake, a part of which lies in the province, isa contraction made by the old French Cana dian voyageurs of the Cree word Manito- MAN Lovell's Gazetteer of [300] British North America. MAN waban. Manito signifies supernatural, dp- vine spirit ; aud waban means a strait. As the waters of a strait in that lake are agi tated in an -unusual way, the Indians be lieved formerly there was therein something supernatural, a spirit that moved them, and so they called the lake Manitowaban. The agricultural capabilities of its soil cannot be exceeded for many things. The most part of the province is prairie land perfectly level and diversified by groups of elm, ash, oak, poplar, basswood, and ash- leaf, maple (negondofrosi ni folia). Itls a rich, black mould resting partly on a lime stone formation and partly op a thick coat of hard clay. Manure, not indispensable at first, is as useful here as elsewhere. It has not been used much so far, on account of the large amount of land possessed by each of the inhabitants, which circumstance enables them not to sow the same grain several years running. Wheat ripens in 110 days, and gives an average return of 20 to 25 bushels to the acre. All kinds of garden vegetables, as well as oats, barley, Indian corn, hops, flax, hemp, potatoes, and other root crops are easily raised. The grasBy sa- ' vannas of Red River afford unlimited pas turage ranges, as long as unploughed. The climate of Manitoba, though very severe in winter, is nevertheless occasion ally hot in summer. The mean for the three winter months of Dec, Jan., and Feb., is 6° below0 ; and for the summer months of June, July, and August, 65°. Though the winter is extremely cold, it is mitigated by a clear, dry atmosphere. A population more healthy than Manitobans cannot be met anywhere. The province is entirely level, and so much so that it is void of any scenery whatsoever. The principal rivers are the Assiniboiue, 480 miles long, and Red River, 665 miles long, 525 of which are in the United States. The largest lakes (only a part of which, however, are in Manitoba) are Winnipeg, 280 miles long and 5 to 57 miles wide, and Manitoba, 110 miles long and 25 wide. Manitoba is divided into four electoral districts for Dominion elections, viz : Sel kirk, Provencher, Lisgar, and Marquette, each of which sends 1 member to the House of Commons. Winnipeg is the capital of the province. There are two bishops in the province : the Archbishop of St. Boniface (Roman Catho lic), residing at St. Boniface, east side of the Red River, facing Winnipeg and Fort Garry; and the Metropolitan Bishop of Rupert's Land (Church of England), resid ing at St. John, below Winnipeg, west side of the Red River. The public affairs are administered by a Lieutenant Governor, an Executive Council of 5 members, a Legislative Council of 7 members, appointed for life, and a Legisla tive Assembly of 24 members, elected every 4 years. Justice is dispensed by a Chief Justice and two puisne judges. There are 4 religious denominations in Manitoba. The Roman Catholics are the most numerous . They have a cathedral and 10 churches, and about 3,000 adherents. The Episcopalians have a cathedral, 14 churches, over 900 communicants and about 14 clergy. The Presbyterians have 4 churches and 4 preaching stations. The Wesleyan Metho dists are as yet numerically small, but mak ing steady progress. There are also small groups of Baptists and some Unitarians. The province is well provided with educa tional institutions. It has three colleges, St. John's (Church of England), St. Boni face (Roman Catholic), and Kildonan (Pres byterian), a Convent, 3 Protestant Ladies Schools, and 40 common schools, 20 amongst the Protestants and 20 amongst the Roman Catholics. The Sisters of Charity from Montreal have a large Convent at St. Boni face, an academy for young ladies, an or phanage, and four missions in the province. The school system established by law is en tirely denominational or separate.

Every bona-fide settler receives a home stead or a free grant of 160 acres of land. This section of North America was first visited by the French. Chevalier de la Ver- andrye built a fort at the mouth of the AsBiniboine in 1731. The French continued to trade there alone for many years, but In 1767 the first English traders visited it, and soon several rival companies were in opera tion. These finally dwindled into the famous North West Company, which in its turn was absorbed by the Hudson's Bay Company, chartered by King Charles IT. in 1670. The latter company having sold a tract of land to the Hon. Thomas Douglas, Earl of Sel kirk, on both sides of the Assiniboine and of the Red River, his lordship planted there, in 1812, a colony known by the name of Sel kirk Settlement, Red River Settlement, or MAN Lovell's Gazetteer of [301] ^British North America. MAN also Assiniboia. In 1836 the Hudson's Bay Company repurchased from the heirs of Lord Selkirk the same tract of land ceded to his lordship in 1811, and continued to ex ercise authority over that portion of Ru pert's Land by the appointment of the Governor and Council of Assiniboia. which, in course of time, especially after the set tlers had declared independence of trade in 1849? formed a rather independent adminis tration for the local affairs in the colony, the limits of which extended but fifty miles around Fort Garry. It is that colony that now forms the greatest part of the new province of Manitoba. The Hudson's Bay Company never claimed any proprietary rights on the North West Territories proper. These ter ritories formerly included nothing but the lands east of the Rocky Mountains, watered by the rivers running towards the Arctic Sea. The Charter of the Company merely included Rupert's Land, i.e., the lands watered by tbe tributaries of Hudson's Bay. These two immense portions of country outside of the province of Manitoba are . now known by the same name of Nortli West Territories. • In March, 1869, the Hudson's Bay Com pany agreed to hand to the Imperial Gov ernment their territorial rights and govern ing responsibilities, and on the 16th of July, 1870, England handed the whole to the Canadian government. It was during that period that the Red River troubles took place. The transactions between England and Canada, as well as the Hudson's Bay Company, having been made without con sulting and even paying any attention to the government and people of Assiniboia, a deep feeling of uneasiness arose, and the Canadian authorities coming into the coun try before the transfer, met resistance. In the meantime a provisional government was formed by the settlers to secure their rights and come to an agreement with the Dominion of Canada, delegates were sent to Ottawa for that purpose and treated with the proper authorities. England urged the Ottawa Government bo satisfy the people of Red River. Then the Bill of Manitoba and other guarantees were agreed to, and there by the entry of Manitoba into the Confed eration was effected. The first missionary known as having visited the country is the Rev. Pere Mes- sager, who accompanied Chevalier de la Verandrye in 1731. At the time of the Con- 2uest the Catholic missions were aban- oned ; they were resumed in 1818 by the Revs. J. N. Provencher and S. J. N. Du- moulin, from Quebec. The Rev. J. N. Provencher was conse crated bishop of Juliopolis in 1822, and afterwards nominated bishop of St. Boni face. That see was created an Arch bishopric in 1871, and is now occupied by the Most Rev. Alexandre Tache, D.D. A Church of England bishopric was created in 1849. Rev. David Anderson was the first ^bishop of Rupert's Land, and was succeeded by the Right Rev. Robert Machray, D.D.

MONTMORENCY FALLS, a post village in Quebec Co., Que., 6 miles from Quebec. The Falls of Montmorency present one of the most majestic spectacles in the province. The Montmorency itself, bo called after a French admiral of that name, is an incon siderable stream. Its course lies through an almost continued forest over an irregu lar broken rocky bottom, until it arrives at the precipice, where its breadth is from 16 to 20 yards. A little declination of the bed before it reaches this point gives a great velocity to the stream, which, in being im pelled over the brink of a perpendicular rock, falls in an extended sheet of water Into a rocky chasm 240 feet below- An im mense spray rises from the bottom in curl ing volumes, which, when the sun shines upon it, displays bright prismatic colors, producing an effect inconceivably beautiful. The falls are a great source of attraction to visitors to the Ancient Capital. MONT MORIN, a post oflice in the parish of Ste. Agathe des Monts, Terrebonne co. , ¦ Que., 60 miles from Montreal.

It is 32 miles long by about 10 miles broad at the widest part, generally level, with the excep tion of the mountain which rises NW. of the city. The soil is for the most part fer tile and well cultivated, and is watered by numerous small streams, and the climate particularly favorable for the growth of nearly every kind of grain, fruit and Vege table. Montreal occupies a low tract of land about 2 miles wide, between a considerable and very beautiful elevation called " Mount Royal " and the river. It is divided into 9 wards^and has over 200 miles of streets and lanes. Some of the streets are narrow and ill paved, but the majority will compare favorably with those of any other city on this continent. The principal streets have large well built edifices, constructed chiefly of limestone quarried near the city. These , buildings, combined with the effect of the < lofty towers and spires, give the city a veiy . \ imposing appearance when viewed from ifi distance.

The largest banking houses in the Domin ion have their head offices in Montreal, are mostly situated iu Place d'Armes and St. James street, and consist of very handsome and costly structures. The harbor of Montreal, which is formed towards the St. Lawrence, is secure, and the quays are unsurpassed by those of any city in America ; built of limestone, and uniting with the locks andcut stone wharves of the Lachine Canal, they present, for sev eral miles, a display of continuous masonry which has few parallels. No unsightly warehouses disfigure the river side. A broad terrace, faced with grey limestone, the par apets of which are surmounted with a sub stantial iron railing, divides the city from the river throughout its whole extent. Im provements in the harbor (which is con trolled by Commissioners) are yearly be ing made to accommodate the large increase of shipping. The duties have increased from £1,013, 440 in 1854 to $5,233,182 in 1880 ; 'and the value of imports was respectively $18,729,612 iu 1854, and $ 37,073,068 in 1880.

Jacques Cartier MON LovelVs Gazetteer of [314] British North America. MOO first landed on its shores. An Indian vil lage called Hochelaga existed here at this time. The way to it was through large fields of Indian corn. Its outline was cir cular ; and it was encompassed by three separate rows of pausades, or rather picket fences, one within the other, well secured and put together. A single entrance was left in this rude fortification, but guarded with pikes and stakes and every precaution taken against siege or attack. The cabins or lodges of the inhabitants, about 50 in number, were constructed in the form of a tunnel, each 50 feet in length by 15 in breadth. They were formed of wood cov ered with bark. Above the doors of these houses as well as along the outer rows of palisades ran a gallery ascended by ladders, where stones and other missiles were laid in order for the defence of the place. Each house contained several chambers, and the whole were so arranged as to enclose an open court yard, where the fire was made- Cartier named the place Mount Royal. It first began to be settled by Europeans in 1542, and exactly one century after the spot destined for the city was consecrated with due solemnities, commended to the " Queen of the Angels," and called Ville Marie, a name which it retained for a long period. In 1760 it was taken by the English. At this time it was a well peopled town of an oblong form, surrounded by a wall flanked with eleven redoubts— a ditch about 8 feet deep and a proportionable width, but dry, and a fort and citadel, the batteries of which commanded the streets of the town from one 'end to the other. The town was at this time divided into upper and lower town, the upper town being the level of the present Court House. In the lower town the merchants and men of business general ly resided and here were situated the royal magazines, the armory, and the nunnery hospital. In the upper town were the prin cipal buildings, such as the palace of the Governor, the "houses of the chief officers, the Convent of the Recollete, the Jesuit's Church and Seminary, the Free School, and the Parish Church. The houses were solid ly constructed in that semi-monastic style peculiar to Rouen, Caen and other towns in Normandy. Early in the present century vessels of more than 300 tons could not as cend to Montreal; and its foreign trade was carried on by small brigs and barges. In 1809 the first steam vessel, " The Accommo dation," built by the Hon. John Molson, made a trip to Quebec ; she had berths for about 20 passengers. Years of industry, in telligence, enterprise and labor have pro duced a mighty contrast: — Ocean steamerB of 4000 tons, the magnificent floating pal aces of the Richelieu Company, and snips from 700. to. 2000 tons, from all parts of the world, now lay along, side the wharves of the harbor, which are not equalled on this continent, in point of extent, accommoda tion, approach and cleanliness. In 1832 the cholera raged in Montreal with great vio lence carrying off 1,843 inhabitants in a pop ulation of little more than 30,000. In April, 1849, apolitical mob burned the Parliamen- ary buildingB (which were situated on the site of the St. Ann's market), and the seat of government was inconsequence removed to Quebec, subsequently to Toronto, and finally to Ottawa. In July, 1852, a destruc tive fire laid waste a large part of the city, burning 1108 houses and destroying prop erty valued at $1,363,264. In 1860, the city was visited by the Prince of Wales ; in 1862 by the Duke of Edinburgh ; and in 1869 Prince Arthur made it his residence for sev eral months. The Hotel Dieu was founded in 1644 by Madame de Bouillon, and six years afterwards the Convent of Notre Damo was founded by Mademoiselle Marguerite. de Bourgeois. In 1663, the Company of Montreal was dissolved, they having already sold their rights to the religious order ra St. Sulpice at Paris, by whom was founded the Seminary belonging to that order, aud still existing in the city. The two oldest' churches in Montreal are the Bonsecoura (Roman Catholic) and St. Gabriel (Church of Scotland). The former was erected'in 1658 ; was burnt in 1764, but rebuilt in 1771. The latter was built in 1792. Montreal is surrounded by villages whose population numbers over 25,000. MONTROSE, a post village in Prince co.,' P.E.I. , 47 miles from Georgetown. Pop. 200.

MOUNT ROYAL, a very picturesque mountain on the outskirts of Montreal, whose most elevated point at the furthest extremity is about 750 feet above the level of the river ; it gains a moderate height at first by a gradual ascent, which lowers again towards the middle, from thence it assumes a broken and uneven form until it is ter minated by a sudden elevation in shape of a cone. The slopes on the lower part are well cultivated, but the upper part is mostly covered with wood. The summit, to which there is a good road of very easy ascent, commands a grand and most mag nificent prospect, including every variety that can embellish a landscape ; the noble River St. Lawrence, moving in all its majes ty, is seen in many of the windings, to an immense distance ; on the south side the view is bounded by the long range of mountains in the State of New York that iB gradually lost in the ferial perspective. The base of the mountain, almost all around, is adorned with many elegant vil lages and pleasure grounds. The choicest orchards of the province are also situated around it, the fruit being of great variety and veiy abundant, and also of the most de licious flavor.

NEW BRUNSWICK, a province of the Dominion of Canada, bounded on the N.W. by the province of Quebec, from which it is separated by the River Restigouche ; N. by Baie Chaleurs ; E. by the Gulf of St. Law rence and Northumberland Strait, the lat ter separating it from Prince Edward Island ; S. by the Bay of Fundy and part of Nova Scotia ; and on the W. by the State of Maine, from which it is separated by the St. Croix and St. John Rivers ; extending from lat. 45° 5' to 48° 40' N, Ion. 63° 50' to 68° W. ; greatest length from N. to S. 230 miles ; breadth 190 miles ; area 27,322 square miles, equal to 17,486,280 acres. Its coast line is about 500 miles in length, inter rupted only at the point of junction with Nova Scotia, where au isthmus of not more than 11 mile's in breadth connects the two territories and separates the waters of Northumberland Strait from those of the Bay of Fundy, and which it is proposed to mute by means of a canal, called the Bay Verte Canal. The surface of the country is generally flat or undulating. There are some hills skirting the Bay of Fundy and the Rivers St. John and Restigouche, but they nowhere assume mountain summits. The shores of the Gulf of St. Lawrence and Northumber- ' land Strait abound in fine ship harbors (each at the mouth of a considerable river), from which is exported much fine timber. For about 12 miles inland the country is low and skirted with marshes. The face of the province is traversed in all directions by navigable rivers, chief of which is the St. John, 450 miles in length. It is navigable for vessels of 100 tons to Fredericton, 90 miles from the sea. Above this point smaller steamers ascend 65 miles, to Woodstock, and occasionally make trips as far as the Tobique, 75 miles further up, and even to the Grand Falls, a magnificent cataract 70 or 80 feet perpendicular, 225 miles from the sea. Above the Falls the St. John has been navigated by a steamer to the mouth of the Madawaska, 40 miles; 21 from this r)oint boats and canoes may as cend almost to its sources. The Madawaska River is also navigable for small steamers to Lake Temiscouata, a sheet of water 27 miles long, from 2 to 6 miles broad, and of great depth throughout. From the upper part of this lake to the River St. Lawrence, . at Trois Pistoles, the distance is only about 18 miles. The country drained by the St. John and its tributaries comprises about 9,000,000 acres in New Brunswick, 2,000,000 in Quebec, and 6,000,000 in Maine. The valley is remarkable for its fertility, and picturesque beauty. After the St- John, the largest river oi New Brunswick is the Miramichi, flowing N. E. into an extensive bay of its own name. It is 225 miles in length, aud 7 miles wide at its mouth. It is navigable for large vessels 25 miles from the Gulf, and for schooners 20 miles fur ther, to the head of the tide, above which, for 60 miles, it is navigable for tow boats. The river has many large tributaries, spreading over a groat extent of country. The Petitcodiac is a large river, flowing into Cumberland Bami, near the head of the Bay of Fundy. It is about 100 miles in length, and is navigable for vessels of the largest size for 25 miles, and for schoon ers of 60 or SO tons to the head of tide, 12 miles further. The Richibucto is a consid erable river flowing into the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The tide flows up it 25 miles. It is navigable for small vessels 15 miles. The Restigouche, at the north eastern ex tremity of the province, is a noble river. 3 miles wide at its entrance into the Baie des Chaleurs, and navigable for large ves sels for 18 miles from the Bay. The princi pal stream of the Restigouche is over 200 > miles in length. Its Indian name signifies " the river which divides like the band "— in allusion to Us separation, above the tide, in live large streams. The main river, and its tributaries, drains over 4,000 square miles of fertile and finely timbered coun try. Among the numerous bays with which the coast is indented, the most important is the Baie des Chaleurs, an immense haven 90 miles in length, and from 12 to 25 miles in breadth, with many excellent harbors. Throughout its whole extent there is nei ther rock, reef, nor shoal, nor any impedi ment to navigation. On the southern, or New Brunswick, side of this Bay the shores are low, the water deepening gradually from them- On the northern, or Quebec, side, the shores are bold and precipitous, rising into pminences, which almost may be called mountains. Besides the Mira michi already mentioned, the principal bays on its east coast are Richibucto, Buc touche, Cocagne and Shedhic ; on the south coast are Passamaquoddy Bay, separating New Brunswick from Maine, and on the S. "W., St. John Harbor and Chignecto Bay. The lakes are numerous but of small ex tent. The principal is Grand Lake, 30 miles long and 2 to 7 miles wide, communi cating with the Biver St. John 50 miles frpm the sea- A long the shores of the Baie des Chaleurs and the Gulf of St. Lawrence gray sand. NEW Lovell's Gazetteer of [322] British North America. NEW stone and grey clayslate predominate, with detached rocks of granite, quartz and iron stone ; on the south coast, limestone, gray- wacke, clayslate, with sandstone, inter rupted, occasionally by gneiss, trap and granite. Specimens of amethyst, carnelian, jasper, &C., have been picked up in various places. Coal is plentiful and iron ore abundant; the former is said to extend over 10,000 square miles. The Albert coal mine is the most valuable deposit of bitu minous matter on this continent. It pro duces 100 gallons of crude oil per ton. Cop per and manganese also abound. A large deposit of the former has been discovered on the banks of the Nepisiquit River, which falls into Bathurst Bay, and another of plumbago within half a mile of St. John. The supply of the latter is said to be inex haustible. Gypsum, limestone, freestone, and grindstone abound. Salt springs, strongly saturated, are numerous, and some sulphurous springs have been discovered. The climate of New Brunswick is subject to great extremes of heat and cold. The ranges of temperature are : at St. John from 18° below to 88° above ; at Richibucto from 20° below to 90° above ; and at Fred ericton from 24° below to 95° above. The prevailing summer winds are from the W.S. W. and S. ; when from the S.W. dense fogs are often produced on the Bay of Fundy, and extend from 15 to 20 miles in land. The autumn is a season of exceeding beauty, the air being dry and clear, and the woods glowing with innumerable tints of the richest and most brilliant hues. Of the soil and capabilities of New Bruns wick it is impossible to speak too highly. There is not a country in the world so beau tifully wooded and watered. A large por tion of the surface is covered with dense forests of pine, hackmatac, spruce, cedar, &c, &c, which provide immense quantities of timber both for export and shipbuilding. All kinds of cereals and fruits (except peaches) ripen perfectly and are of excel lent quality. The potatoes raised in this province are the best in the world. Tur nips, peas, beans, and other leguminous plants thrive admirably. A most profitable crop is grass, which occupies about four- fifths of the land on every large farm. Agriculture, however, has made but slow progress, and the demand for food is far beyond the supply raised on the soil. The inhabitants generally find it more profitable to follow the lumbering business. The rivers, lakes and sea coast of New Bruns wick abound with fish of almost every variety. In Baie des Chaleurs immense shoals are seen, darkening the surface of the water. The Bay of Fundyhas longbeen celebrated for its fisheries. The yield from its waters in 1870 was valued at $270,239. In 1871 there were 5,161 men employed in the New Brunswick fisheries, and the total value of fish caught was estimated at $1 . ,185,- 033. The Salmon fisheries of New Bruns wick are among the finest in the world. The Buctouche, Caraquette and Cocagne oyster beds are as prolific as they are fa mous, and the finest lobsters are found In profusion. Shipbuilding is extensively prosecuted in the province, more especially at St. John ' and on the Miramichi. Vessels are also built at St. Andrews, at various coves and harbors on the Bay of Fundy, along the banks of the St. John and Petitcodiac ; and at Cocagne, Richibucto, Bathurst, Dalhousie, Campbellton, and other ports on the north shore. The principal articles manufactured in New Brunswick are sawn lumber, leather, cotton and woollen goods, wooden ware of all descriptions, paper, iron castings, nails, mill machinery, locomotives, steam engines, &c. The number of saw mills in the pro vince is very large. The great extent of sea coast, with its numerous bays and navigable rivers flow ing into them, furnish admirable facilities for commerce. The principal exports are fish, timber and lumber, iron, coal, gypsum, shooks, hay, &c. The chief imports are wheat, flour, and cornmeal, corn and other grain, salted meats, coffee, sugar, tea, mo lasses, tobacco, woollen, cotton and silk manufactures, fruits, &c. The total value of the imports for 1880 amounted to $4,093,- 135, and the exports to $5,863,955. There are 8 railways in the province, 1 of which is under construction — the New Brunswick. The Intercolonial runs from St. John to Halifax and Point Levis with branch to Shediac. The head offices are at Moncton. The St. John and Maine rail way runs from St. John westward to the State of Maine, connecting at Fredericton Junction with the Fredericton Branch railway, at McAdam with the New Bruns wick and Canada railway, and at Bangor with the railway system of the United States. It is intended that this road shall form a connection with the International railway, now in course of construction from Sherbrooke eastward. When this road is built the distance by rail between Montreal and St. John will be reduced to 430 miles. (By the Intercolonial the distance is 760 miles.) The New Brunswick and Canada railway (the oldest railway in the province) proceeds from St. Andrews to Woodstock, with branches to St. Stephen, and Houlton, Me. At Woodstock it connects with a branch of the New Brunswick railway. This latter line is running between Fredericton and Woodstock and Edmundston. From the latter place it is being built to Riv. du Loup. When completed it will reduce the distance from St. John to Quebec to about 388 miles, or just 200 miles less than it is now by the Intercolonial. The Grand Southern railway runs from St. John to St. Stephen, 80 miles ; the Albert raUway from Salis bury to Hopewell ; the Elgin from Petit codiac to Elgin, and the Upbam and St. Martins from Upbam to Quaco. Telegraph wires connect New Brunswick with the United States and the Western provinces of the Dominion on the one hand, and with Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland and Europe on the other. The province is divided into 14 counties the names of which, and population in 1871, with their capitals are exhibited in the fol lowing table : Counties. Pop.

The judicial department comprises a Supreme Court, with a Chief and 4 puisne judges having Law and Equity jurisdiction ; one of Marriage and Divorce, a Vice Admiralty Court, and a County Court for each county in the province. The Provincial legislature meets at Fredericton. New Brunswick was first settled by the French in 1639. It continued to form part, with Nova Scotia, of Acadia, or New France, till it fell into the hands of the British, after the conquest of Quebec. The first British settlers in the province emigrated from Scotland to the Miramichi in 1764; and in 1784, New Brunswick was separated from Nova Scotia and erected into a sepa rate province. In 1825, the standing timber in the district around Miramichi Bay took fire, and enveloped an area of 6,000 square miles in flames, consuming two thriving towns, many large vessels lying in Mira michi Kiver, and destroying 500 human beings. In 1867 this province united with Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia in forming the Canadian Confederation, aud is the fourth largest Province, as regards popula tion in the Dominion.

It is separated on the N.W. from Canada by the Gulf; its S.W. point approaches Cape Breton ; N. and N. E. are the shores of Labrador, from which it is divided by the Strait of Belleisle ; and on its eastern side expands the open ocean. It lies nearer to Europe than any part of America. It is about 1,200 miles in circum ference ; its width, at the very widest part, between Capes Ray and Bonavista, is about 300 miles ; and its extreme length, from Cape Race to Griguet Bay, about 419 miles, measured on a curve. Its form is somewhat triangular, but exceedingly irregular, owing to its being indented with deep bays, the most remarkable of which are Hare, White, and Notre Dame Bays, Bay of Exploits, Bonavista, Trinity and Conception Bays on the E. coast ; St. Mary's Bay, Fortune and Placentia Bay, on the S. coast; and St. George's Bay and Bay of Islands on the W.

Many of these are extensive, com. modious and well sheltered, with numerous filets ™u»""g mto them> while most of c^a? andTood^chanX*6 ««*-»-W witfc The interior of the Island has never been NEW Lovell's Gazetteer of [325] British North America. NEW thoroughly explored, but from the reports of Mr. Murray, the geologist, who has been for many years past and is still engaged in its exploration, there is reaBon to believe that its resources, both agricultural and mineral, are of very considerable impor tance. The greater portion, however, ap pears to be rocky, with numerous tracts of moss, much intersected by rivers and lakes, and but thinly wooded, except on the banks of the rivers. Great boulders or loose rocks, scattered over the country, increase its gen eral roughness. Hills and valleys con tinually succeed each other, the former never rising into mountains (the highest not exceeding, 1,500 feet), and the latter rarely expanding into plains. The " bar rens" of Newfoundland are those dis tricts which occupy the summits of the hills and ridges, and other elevated and ex posed tracts. They are covered with a thin and scrubby vegetation, consisting of berry- bearing plants and dwarf bushes, of various kinds. Bare patches of gravel and boulders, and crumbling fragments of rook, are fre quently met with on the "barrens," which are generally destitute of vegetable soil. The sea cliffs are, for the most part, bold and lofty, with deep water close to the shore. The rivers of Newfoundland are numerous, and though the majority are small, yet some attain to respectable size. The largest are the Humber, River of Exploits, Gambo and Great Cod Roy Rivers. The Humber, in its main branch, is about 80 miles long — in its second, or Grand Pond branch, it is about 48 miles long. The Exploits is about 150 miles long, and drains about 3,000 square miles of country. The Gander is somewhat over 100 miles long. Nearly all the rivers issue from lakes or ponds in the interior. Many of them . abound with excellent salmon. Fresh water lakes and ponds are also numerous. They are found over the face of the entire country — on the very tops of hills. The surface covered with fresh water has been estimated at one-third of the whole Island. 67 ponds have been counted from one spot on the N.E. moun tains of Avalon, some two and three miles in extent, none less than 100 yards, and not at a farther distance than ten miles from the base of the hill. The principal lakes in the Island are the Gander Pond, Deer Pond, Grand Pond and Red Indian Pond. The Grand Pond contains an area of about 185 square miles ; this includes an island at its south-west end, which contains an area of about 50 square miles. Deer Pond has an area of about 30 square miles. The Red Indian Pond has an area of 64 square miles. The Gander Pond is supposed to be of large extent, but has not yet been measured. The prevalent formation of Newfoundland is granite, and in some parts porphyry, quartz, gneiss, mica and clayslate, with secondary and, over a considerable area, carboniferous formations. The mineral of the Island comprises silver, copper, lead, chromic iron, magnetic iron, specular iron, manganese, nickel, plumbago, gypsum, ser pentine, jaspers, white and black marble, limestone and coal. Traces of gold have also been found by analysis, as well as traces of cadmium and bismuth. The principal mines are the Tilt Cove Mine (copper), the Notre Dame Mine (copper), both on the eastern side of the Island ; and the La Manche Mine (lead), on the southern coast. The first named has been very productive. The other two have not been so successful, though there is no doubt they are rich in minerals. The climate, being insular, is not liable to so great changes in temperature as that of, the neighboring continental Provinces, the winter being much milder and the sum mer not nearly so warm. The average temperature of February, the coldest month, is 22°, of July, the hottest, 60°, and of the year 40°. The winter lasts from December till April. The summer is short and warm. In May and beginning of June dense fogs prevail on the Banks and neigh boring shores, but they do not appear to De in the least prejudicial to health. The principal trees of Newfoundland are spruce, birch, larch, willow, ash andflr ; but they do not attain to a large size. Recumbent and standing evergreens are to be met in great variety ; berry-growing bushes abound in every swamp. > European and American grasses, also red and white clover, are abundant. In several sections of the Island agri culture can be carried on with profit. In the neighborhood of many of the lakes and rivers there are valuable alluvia. Potatoes yield well and are of excellent quality ; green crops thrive well in many districts. Wheat has been known to yield 30 bushels per acre. Apples, plums and cherries have been raised with success ; gooseberries, strawberries and raspberries, of very good quality, are grown. The timber lands, amounting to nearly one million of acres, and situated principally on the western side pf the Island, and by the chief lakes and rivers, are wholly un settled, and ungranted, though they are of high importance with a view to settlement. What may be the extent and nature of the lands of the interior it is impossible to say, as they have never been surveyed. No lands are let for lumbering purposes — the laws provide that they shall -be disposed of for settlement alone- With the exception of the grant to the New York, Newfoundland and London Telegraph Company, which consists of one hundred square miles, in blocks of three miles each, no land has been given to any purchasers in quantities exeeeding 200 acres, save in very few in stances. ' The only animal peculiar to the Island is the Newfoundland dog, famous the wqrld over. Among the wild animals may be enumerated the deer, the wolf, the bear, the beaver, the marten and wild cat. Land and aquatic birds are numerous. Seals are numerous on the coasts, as are also whales, grampuses and porpoises ; while for fish there is no place in the world comparable to Newfoundland, especially for cod. The famous Grand Banks swarm with cod NEW Lovell's Gazetteer of [326] British North America. NEW and every other variety of fish. These banks form the most extensive submarine elevation on the face of the globe ; in their full extent they occupy 6° of Ion., and nearly 10° of lat., being over 600 miles in length and 200 miles in breadth, with a depth of water varying from 10 to 160 fathoms. The mean depth is estimated at 40 fathoms. The prosecution of the fishery on the Grand Banks has of late years been left exclu sively in the hands of foreigners, princi pally French, whilst the shore fishery, which, with less risk, is more convenient, is depended upon by the fishermen of the Island for their support. The cod fishery opens in June and lasts till the middle of November, and may be said to form the chief occupation of the inhabitants of the Island. The seal fishery is next in import ance. In 1880, 196vessel8, with an aggregate burthen of 29,796 tons, and manned by 9,496 men, were engaged in this fishery. The sailing fleet of Newfoundland now in cludes 20 steam vessels, 5,759 tons, carrying 3,511 men. The imports of Newfoundland consist of all articles used for food and clothing, as well as for domestic and fishing purposes. The principal exports are fish and fish oils, seal oil and skins. The Government of Newfoundland pays $120,000 annually for the steam service of the colony. The steamers subsidized are the Allan Line to and from Liverpool and Halifax, or some port in the Dominion or United States, once a fortnight ; 1 steamer once a fortnight from St. John's northward; 1 steamer once a fortnight from St. John's westward ; 1 from St. John's to Conception Bay ; 1 to convey the Judges on Circuit all over the Island, and 1 on the Labrador coast, running once a fortnight along the shore from south to north and vice versa, giving information to the fishermen where the fish is most abundant. The public affairs of Newfoundland are adminstered by a Governor, an Executive Council of 6 members, a Legislative Council of 13 members, and a Legislative Assembly of 31 representatives. The judicial depart ment comprises a Supreme Court, with a Chief and two assistant judges ; a Vice Ad miralty Court, and a District Court The public school system is based on the denominational principle as regards Roman Catholics, and the non-denominational as far as Protestants generally are concerned. The Church of England Protestants are dis satisfied with the system, and desire a sep aration from all the other Protestant de nominations, so as to be placed in. the same position, as to public education, as the Ro man Catholics ; from this view, however, all the other Protestant denominations dis sent. In consonance with this state of things there are two general inspectors of eiementary or board schools, one a Protes tant, the other a Roman Catholic. The last printed reports of these inspectors are for 1871. The number of Protestant schools then in operation (the number and attend ance have varied very little since) was 180, with an attendance of 10,676 pupils. Of these schools, 138 were elementary ; 7 com mercial ; 20 Colonial Church and School Society (partly supported by the local gov ernment); 12 Wesleyan School Society; 2 Church of England ; and 1 Presbyterian Church. The number of Roman Catholic schools was 101, with an attendance of 5,411 pupils. There are besides these, 7 commer cial schools, with an attendance of 502 pupils ; and 13 convent schools, with an at tendance of 1,965 pupils. There are four public academies, based on the denomina tional principle, and all situated in the capital of the Island ; one for Roman Catho lics, which is in connection with their Col lege ; one for Church of England Protes tants, in connection with their collegiate establishment ; one for Wesleyans ; and one for Protestants of all other denomina tions. The last named ought not, perhaps, to be denominational, inasmuch as it is open to all denominations, though but few, if any, of the denominations who possess academical institutions of their own have recourse to it. The towns of Harbor Grace and Carbonear have each a grammar school, besides the commercial and elementary board schools. There are no railways on the Island, and the means of communication are not the best. Two steamers make fortnightly trips to the principal places north and south of St. John's ; and another runs daily between ports on Conception Bay. Most of the other places have to be reached by open sail boat. The inhabitants of Newfoundland are principally the descendants of the settlers from England and Ireland. The Aboriginal inhabitants known as Red Indians have been extinct for many years past. There are some Micmacs in the Island, but not many.

Newfoundland is supposed to have been discovered by Northmen about the year 1000. It was re-discovered by Sir John Cabot and his son Sebastian on the 24th June, 1497. A settlement was subsequently formed by some Portuguese adventurers, who were in turn expelled by Sir Francis Drake, in the reign of Queen Elizabeth. After this period numerous English colo nies were established from time to time along the eastern coast, aud several French along the southern, in the Bay of Placentia. For a lone series of years the colony ex isted merely as a fishing settlement, and was much disturbed by the French, until, in 1713, it was declared by the Treaty of Utrecht to belong wholly to Great Britain, the French reserving a right to fish on cer tain parts of the coast ; the rocky islets of St. Pierre and Miquelon being also assigned to them on condition that they should not be used for military purposes. The first Governor of the Island was appointed in 1728, and the first Legislative Assembly met on the first of January, 1733. The most noteworthy town on the Island is St. John's, the capital. It has telegraphic communica tion with Canada, trie United States and Europe, and the most important places on the Island.

At present the principal industry is salmon flshing, of which im mense numbers run up the River Fraser. Sturgeon also of fabulous size, besides other kinds of fish, are caught in great abundance. Magnificent trout are taken in various small streams in the neigkborhood. New Westminster was a prosperous and busy place when it was the capital, but since the removal of the government to Victoria it I has materially decreased in business and population. But nothing can deprive it of its magnificent site and of its unequalled climate and scenery.

NORTH WEST TERRITORIES.— This large possession of the Dominion of Canada includes all that portion of British North America outside the provinces of Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Manitoba, British Columbia, Prince Edward Island, and Keewatin and the island of New foundland. It is bounded on the N. by the Arctic Ocean, on the E. by the Atlantic, on the W. by the Pacific, and on the S. by parts of the Dominion of Canada and the United States. Area estimated at 2,750,000 sq. miles. This immense district was, until 1870, known as the Hudson's Bay Territory, so named after Henry Hudson, who discovered the bay in 1610, and perished on its shores. It was governed by the Hudson's Bay Com pany, by whom it was divided into four large departments, or regions, subdivided Into 33 districts, including 155 posts. The government was administered by a Chief Governor and Council ; and the various de partments by Chief Factors and Chief Traders. The Northern department, which included all the establishments in the far north and frozen region, comprised the valley of the Mackenzie River, and the country between that sterile region and the Rocky Mountains, north of Lake Atha basca. The Southern department extended on both sides of James's Bay, and along the south shores of Hudson's Bay, as far north as Cape Churchill, aud inland to the ridge which forms the northeru boundary of Quebec and Ontario, and to the lakes Win nipeg, Deer, and Wollaston. The Montreal department included the country in the neighborhood of Montreal, up the Ottawa River, and along the north shore of the St. Lawrence to Esquimaux Bay; and the Columbia department comprehended all that immense extent of country to the west of the Rocky Mountains, now the Province of British Columbia. The country on the E. side of Hudson's Bay, forming the pen insula of Labrador, was called East Main; that on the southwest, New South Wales. In 1870 the North West Territories came Into the possession of the Dominion of Canada. Out of the Southern department the Provinces of Manitoba and Keewatin were created. The territories now outside Manitoba and British Columbia are governed by the Lieutenant Governor of the North West Territories, and by a Council of eleven members. Battleford iB the seat of Government. The North West Territories are watered by numerous lakes and rivers. The princi pal rivers are the Churchill, Nelson, Severn, Albany, Abbitibbi, East Main, and Great Whale Rivers, flowing into Hudson's Bay ; the Mackenzie, Coppermine, and Great Fish Rivers, flowing into the Arctic Ocean; the Saskatchewan Assinniboine and Red rivers, falling into Lake Winnipeg ; and the Caniapuscaw (or Koksoak) and Natwakame rivers, falling into. Hudson's Straits. The Mackenzie is one of the greatest rivers in the world. It is 2,500 miles long, and flows through a fertile and finely wooded country skirted by metalliferous hills, and with coal measures cropping out near the sur face throughout three-fourths of the area drained by it. According to the best com putation, it drains an area of 443,000 square miles. The Coppermine River is very rich in copper ore and galena. The Saskatche wan, 1,300 miles long, and its tributaries, drain an area of 363,000 square miles. The principal lakes are the Great Bear, Great Slave, Athabaska, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Lake of the Woods, (Winnepegoos, Clear Water, Nelson, Deer, Wollaston, North Lined, Mistassini and Abbitibbi. Great Bear Lake is 250 miles long and about as wide. Great Slave Lake is 300 miles long and 50 miles wide. Lake Athabasca is 200 miles long and 20 to 40 miles wide. Lake Winni peg is 280 miles long and 5 to 57 miles wide ; Lake of the Woods 75 miles long by 60 miles wide, and Lake Mistassini about the size of Lake Ontario. The agricultural capabilities of at least 600,000 square miles of the North West Ter ritories are very great. The fertile belt of the Saskatchewan alone contains an area of 64,400 square miles, in one continuous strip 800 miles long, and, on an average, 80 miles broad. But the best and largest wheat area is beyond the Saskatchewan, viz. : the val leys of the Athabasca and Peace Rivers to the very western (the Pacific) slope of the Rocky Mountains, along the Peace River pass to lat. 60° N., near the foot of the Rocky Mountains, an area of 300,000,000 acres beyond the supposed limit of the fer tile belt of the North West. (Authorities on this point, Archbishop Tache, Harmon and McLeod.) The Saskatchewan was for merly a wooded country, but successive fires partially cleared its forest growth ; it, however, abounds with the most beautiful herbage, and generally possesses a deep and rich soil of vegetable mould. This ex traordinary belt, more than one-third of which is at once available f6i the purposes of the agriculturalist, is capable of sustain ing a population of 90,000,000. This region in winter is not more severe than that ex- Serienced in Ontario ; and in the western istricts, which are removed from the in fluence of the great lakes, the spring com mences about a month earlier than on the NOR] LovelVs Gazetteer of [334] British North America. NOR Shores cf Lake Superior, which is five de grees of latitude farther to the south. The depth of snow is never excessive ; while in the richest tracts the natural pasturage is so abundant that horses and cattle may be left to obtain their food during the greater part of the winter : in fact, up even to lat. 56° N. (Dunvegan on the Peace River), the horses winter out the whole season. Trav ellers who have visited this region describe it as magnificent, and the late Sir George Simpson, who had been for over thirty years Governor of the Hudson's Bay Company, speaks of himself and fellow-travellers, " brushing the luxuriant grass with our knees, and the hard ground on the surface was beautifully diversified with a variety of flowers, such as the rose, the hyacinth and the tiger lily; " and again he describes it as " a beautiful country, with lofty hills, roll ing prairies, sylvan lakes, bright green sward, uninterrupted profusion of roses and blue bells, softest vales and panoramas of hanging copses." The Mackenzie River country is well wooded, and the soil well adapted for culti vation. The rivers and lakes west of Lake Supe rior are bordered by rich prairies and luxu riant woods, and the splendid stream (Rainy River, 100 miles long) which empties Lac la Pluie into Lake of the Woods is crowned in many places with a plentiful growth of birch, poplar, beech, elm and oak. Sir George Simpson thus concludes his remarks on this beautiful stream : " Is it too much for the eye of philanthropy to discern through the vista of futurity this noble stream, connecting as it does the fertile shores of two spacious lakes, with crowded steamboats on its bosom, and populous towns on its borders ?" On Peace River groves of poplars and pine woods in every shape vary the scene, and their intervals are enlivened with vast herds of elks and buffaloes. About 150 miles east of the Rocky Moun tains the great coal bed commences. So far as has been ascertained, it is over 300 miles in width, and extends continuouBly over 16 degrees of latitude, to the Arctic Ocean. The lignite (or tertiary coal) formation is still more extensively developed- At the i' unction of the Mackenzie and Bear Lake livers the formation is best exposed ; it there consists of a series of beds, the thick est of which exceeds three yards, separated by layers of gravel and sand, alternating with a line-grained, friable sandstone, and sometimes with thick beds of clay, the in terposing layer being often dark, from the dissemination of bituminous matter. The coal, when recently extracted from the bed, is massive, and jnost generally shows the woody structure distinctly. Beds of coal also crop up to the surface on various parts ,of the Arctic coast. The Hudson's Bay Company were chart ered by King Charles II. in 1670. Since that period they have used this country as hunting grounds from which to obtain sup plies of furs for all markets in the world- There are probably upwards of 20 different kinds, the most valuable of which is that of the black fox. The other articles of com merce are oils, dried and salted fish, feathers, quills, and walrus ivory. About 18,000 seals are annually taken on the Labrador Peninsula. The Canada Pacific railway runs through the great Saskatchewan country, crossing the Rocky Mountains through tire Yellow Head Pass, and opening up one of the rich est countries on the globe. This railway will be the great highway between Oriental countries and Western Europe. It will be 633 miles shorter than the American Pacific railroad, the distance from New Westmin ster to Montreal being 2,730 miles, as against 3,363 miles from San Francisco to New York City. On its construction depends the rapid growth and prosperity of this rich inheri tance of the Dominion of Canada, now peopled principally by Indians, but destined before many years to become the happy home of millions of inhabitants. Malcolm McLeod, Esq., son of the late Chief Trader John McLeod, senior, Hon. Hudson's Bay Company, and author of " Peace River," &c., has kindly furnished the following estimate as to Dominion lands in the North West Territories and Rupert's Land: Wheat area 370,000 square miles. General boundaries : From Lac Seul (say Ion. 92° W., lat. 50° N.) to foot of Rocky Mountains, lat. 60° N., thence along base of Rocky Mountains, lat. 60° N., thence to the south bend of Moose River, thence to the Lake of the Woods, lat. 49° N., thence along Rainy River, and thence to Lac Seul, This area, unbroken by mountains or rocks to any material extent, with streams and small lakes which but fertilize, may be stated at 320,000 square miles. Beyond it, northwards, however, are also areas of richest vegetable mould (humus) on warm Silurian and Devo nian, bituminous, and with marly clays of utmost fertility. They are to be found on the lower reaches of the Rivers Peace, Hay and Aux Liards, an aggregate say of at least 50,000 square miles. Total wheat area 370,000 square miles, or 236,800,000 acres. Vegetable and grass (economic) areas be yond (and not included in) the above, and with sufficient timber, &c. : Sq. miles. 1. Hudson's Bay Basin (portion Silurian, so far as known, and fairly practicable), east side (E. of meridian 80° W.), 100,000 sq. miles ; west side (W. of meridian 8° W.), 300,000 sq. miles 400,000 2.

The rest of the North West and Rupert's Lands, including the " Barren Grounds " of our Laurentian Labrador Rocks, of our Western Rupert's Land, and the great wilds ahd islands of our Arctic, with their whales, may be fairly estimated at anothor million square miles.

NOVA SCOTIA (originally ACADIA), a province of the Dominion of Canada, lying between 43° 25' and 47° N. lat., and between 69° 40' and 66° 25' W. Ion. It consists of a long, narrow peninsula called Nova Scotia proper, and the Island of Cape Breton, which is separated from the mainland by the Strait of Canso. It is bounded N. by Northumberland Strait (which separates it from Prince Edward Island) and by the Gulf of St. Lawrence ; N.E., S. and S.E., by the Atlantic Ocean; W. by the Bay of Fundy ; and N. by New Brunswick, with which it is connected by an isthmus only 11 miles wide, separating the Bay of Fundy from Northumberland Strait. Greatest length from S.W. to N.E., 350 miles ; great est breadth, about 120 miles ; area 21,731 square miles, equal to 13,382,003 acres. The country is beautifully variegated by ranges of lofty hills and broad valleys, both of which run longitudinally through the province. Its Atlantic frontier, for 5 to 10 miles inland, is composed chiefly of a poor Boil, though rich in gold and other minerals. The Cobequid range of mountains, as tbey are called, run through the interior of the Province. The summits of a few of the conical mounts of this range ascend 1,100 feet and are cultivable nearly to their tops. On each side of these mountains are two ex tensive ranges of rich arable lands, where agricultural operations are carried on ex tensively and with profit. From Briar Island, at the extremity of Digby Neck, and Capes Split and Blomedon, a distance of 130 miles along the Bay of Fundy, extends a ridge of "mural precipices, in many pi aces pre senting overhanging masses of trap rocks from 100 to 600 feet m height. These frown ing crags, with their crowded forests of fir, are first seen by the mariner in crossing the Bay of Fundy ; their height serves to pro tect the interior from the driving fogs of the bay. Beyond this barrier lies the rich and beautiful valley of the Annapolis. The south eastern coast of Nova Scotia is remarkable for the number of its capacious harbors, there being no fewer than 12 ports capable of receiving ships of the line, and 14 of sufficient depm for merchantmen, be tween Halifax and Cape Canso, a distance of not more than 110 miles. There are also some excellent harbors on the S. W. coast and on the N. side of the province. The Island of Cape Breton is second only to Nova Scotia proper in the number and ca pacity of its harbors. The Big Bras d'Or is one grand harbor, while around the coast and in the Strait of Canso there are many fine harbors. Nova Scotia is beautifully diversified with rivers and lakes, covering an area estimated at 3,000 square miles. The largest lake in Nova Scotia proper is Lake Rossignol, be ing twenty miles in length ; the next larg est is Ship Harbor Lake, 15 miles long; Grand Lake, discharging its waters north ward through Shubenacadie River to Cobe quid Bay ; and College Lake, in the eastern part of peninsula. The lakes of Cape Bre ton are much larger and more important The principal of these, however, are inland seas, rather than lakes. The great Bras d'Or Lake is a magnificent expanse of wa ter, of great depth, about fifty miles in length, and abounding with the best quality of fish. Of the rivers of Nova Scotia 15 flow into Northumberland Strait ; 4 into St. George's Bay ; 17 into the Atlantic, and 24 into the Bay of Fundy. The most impor tant are the Shubenacadie, the Avon and Annapolis, flowing into the Bay of Fundy ; the St. Mary's, Musquodoboit, La Have, and Liverpool, flowing into the Atlantic. All the rivers are, with few exceptions, navi gable for coasting vessels for distances varying from two to twenty miles. The most remarkable body of water in the pro vince is Minas Basin, the east arm of the Bay of Fundy, penetrating 60 miles inland and terminating in Cobequid Bay. The tides here rush in with great impetuosity, and form what is called the bore. At the equinoxes they have been known to rise from 40 to 50 feet, while in Halifax harbor, on the opposite coast, the spring tides rise only from 6 to 8 feet. The other principal bays are St. George's Bay and Chedabucto Bay in the E., connected by the Gulf of Canso ; St. Mary's Bay and Townsend Bay in the extreme west of the peninsula ; and 1 Mahone aud St- Margaret's Bays on the S. coast. The province of Nova Scotia is rich in geological resources, all the rocks from the crystalline granites up to the new sand stone series being here met with. In the isthmus connecting the peninsula to New Brunswick, the underlying rocks consist of gray, red, and buft'-colored sandstones of the coal measures, containing innumerable seams of good bituminous coal, many of which are of sufficient „ magnitude to be profitably worked. Lofty cliffs abutting upon the sea coast at the South Joggins pre sent the most beautiful sectional profiles of the coal-bearing strata, with curious fossils, both of vegetable and animal origin. Large trunks of trees, such as are at present un known in a living state, are here seen at various points, standing at right angles to the sandstone strata. Alternate beds of ex cellent bituminous coal are seen cropping out along the shore, and a company has for years been working extensive mines in one of these coal beds. The rocks of this coal formation also furnish abundance of excel lent material for building and for grind stones. Large quantities of beautiful and compact gray, buff-colored and blue sand stone, and an immense number of grind stones are annually exported to the United States. Coal is elsewhere found more abund antly in Pictou co., and on the Island of Cape Breton. The province possesses great resources in gold and iron, and in copper, lead, silver, tin, and other minerals- The quantity of iron ore on the property of the Londonderry Mining Company is inexhaust ible, and the quality of iron manufactured is at least equal to the best Swedish. Man ganese is abundant, and gypsum is exten- NOV Lovell's Gazetteer of [337] British North America. NOV Bively worked • near Windsor and in Cape Breton. The slate tills furnish good roofing Slates,. and. hones of a superior quality are obtained in some of the slates of the coal ¦ series- Beautiful agates, amethysts, chal cedonies, jaspers, cairngorms, andtheentire group of zeolite minerals abound in the amygdaloidal trap along the Bay of Fundy. The climate of Nova Scotia is remarkably temperate considering its northern latitude. The extreme of cold is 20° below zero ; the extreme of heat is 98° above, in the shade. The climate varies considerably in the dif ferent counties. The western counties aver age from 6 to 8 degrees warmer than the eastern. In Annapolis county, for instance, the mercury in the coldest winters rarely falls below zero. The coldest season is from the last week in December until the first week of March. The springs are tedious, the summer heats being for a brief season excessive ; vegetation is singularly rapid, and the autumn is delightful. ,Dense fogs are at certain seasons prevalent along the Atlantic coast. Wheat, rye, oats, barley, buckwheat, Indian corn, potatoes, turnips, mangel wurtzel, tomatoes, and other grains and roots growm abundance and perfection. Apples, pears, plums, cherries, and other garden fruits attain the utmost perfection. In some sections of the country peaches .and grapes ripen in the open air. The apple orchards of Annapolis , and King's coun ties are very productive, and extend along the roadside in an unbroken line for 50 miles. The manufactures of Nova Scotia are yet but very limited. Coarse cloths, called " homespun," are made by the peasantry, aud are generally worn by that class. Coarse flannels, bed linen, blankets, car pets and tweeds, are also manufactured. Tanning is carried on to some extent ; and in the towns and villages boots, shoes sad dlery, harness, household furniture, and agri cultural implements, are made in large quantities. In the neighborhood of Halifax, tobacco, printing and wrapping paper, ma chinery, nails, pails, fuse, gunpowder, car riages, and some other articles are manufac tured. The geographical position of Nova Scotia is highly favorable to commercial pursuits, and as the natural resources become more fully developed there is no doubt her com merce will very largely increase. The im ports of the province for 1880 amounted to 87,074,937, and the exports to $7,543,684. The largest portion of the exports were drawn from the fishing and mining inter ests. If we except Newfoundland, Nova Scotia may be said to possess the finest fish eries in the world. There is no part of its coast of 1000 miles where a profitable fish ery may not be pursued. Its bays and harbors, and inland lakes and rivers, teem with salmon, cod,' halibut, haddock, mack erel, herring, shad, lobsters, &c. 'Shipbuilding is very extensively engaged In in Nova Scotia. In 1872, 188 vesBels were built, with an aggregate burthen of 52,882 tons. There are 497 miles of railway in operation In the province. The Intercolonial proceeds 22 > from Halifax to Amherst, 138 miles, and thence to St. John, N.B., and Quebec ;' and from Truro to Pictou, 52 miles. The Windsor and Annapolis proceeds from Windsor Junction to Annapolis, 116 miles. The Western Counties railway runs from Digby to Yarmouth, 80 miles ; the Halifax and Cape Breton railway from New Glasgow to the Gut of Canso, 79 miles ; and the Spring- hill and Parrsboro' railway from Springhill to Parrsboro', '62 miles. There are two canals in the province — one from Halifax to Cobe quid Bay, and the other connecting St; Peter's Bay, on the Atlantic coast of Cape Breton Island, with Bras d'Or Lake ; length 2300 feet. The Electric Telegraph is established alL over the province, and extends through all the other provinces. A message may be sent from Halifax direct to California. The At lantic Cable gives Nova Scotia telegraphic communication with Europe. The public affairs of the province are ad ministered by *a Lieutenant Governor, an Executive Council of 9 members, and a Legislative Assembly of 38 members, elected every four years. The laws are dispensed by a Supreme Court, composed of a Chief and 9 assistant justices, a Court of Error, of Vice-Admiralty, and of Marriage and Di vorce. In each county there is a Court of Probate, which has control of the property of deceased persons.

Its harbor is the finest in America, and pro tected by a fortress armed with powerful batteries of three and six hundred pounders Armstrong rifled guns. Small towns and villages are scattered over the province, which are accessible from the most remote districts by railway or steamboat, or good carriage roads. Education is free to the children of all classes inNovaScotia. There are numerous NOY LovelVs Gazetteer of [338] British North America. OAK public schools and academies, besides a normal and model school, several convents, and 6 colleges, viz. : Dalhousie College and University, St. Mary's College (B.C.), and the Presbyterian College, Halifax ; Acadia College (Baptist), Wolfville; St. Francis College (R. C), Antigonishe ; and King's College and University, Windsor. The latter, belonging to the Church of England, was founded in 1787. There are two Roman Catholic Dioceses In the province — the Archdiocese of Halifax, and the diocese of Arichat ; and one Church of England— Nova Scotia and Prince Ed ward Island. The following table, taken from the census returns of 1871, shows the various religious denominations and the number of their adherents : Church of England 55,124 Church of Rome 102,001 Church of Scotland 21,539 Presbyterians 82,000 Baptists 73,430 Wesleyan Methodists .' 38,683 Other Methodists 2,094 Congregatioualists 2,538 Other Denominations 9,822 Jews 0 Of no religion 116 No creed stated 1,353 Total 387,800 Nova Scotia was first visited by John Cabot and his son Sebastian in 1497, but was not colouised by Europeans until 1604, when De Monts, a Frenchman, and his followers, and some. Jesuits, attempted for 8 years to form settlements in Port Royal, St. Croix, &c, but were finally expelled from the coun try by the English governor and colonists of Virginia, who claimed the country by right of the discovery of the Cabots. In 1621 Sir William Alexander applied for and obtained from James I. a grant of the whole country, which he proposed to colonise on an exten sive scale, and in 1623 the attempt was made ; but the proposed colonists finding the various points where they wished to establish them selves thronged by foreign adventurers, did not think it prudent to attempt a settlement, and therefore returned to England. During the reign of Charles 1. the Nova Scotia baronets were created, and their patents ratified in Parliament; they were to con tribute their aid to the settlement, and to have portions of land allotted to them ; their number was not to exceed 150. In 1654 Cromwell sent an armed force and took pos session of the country, which remained with the English till 1667, when it was ceded to France by the Treaty of Breda. But the English from time to time attacked the French colonists at various points, till 1713 when the country was finally ceded to Eng land. In 1763 the Island of Cape Breton was annexed to Nova Scotia. In 1784 the pro vince of New Brunswick was created ; and in 1867 Nova Scotia became a province of the Dominion of Canada.

ONTARIO, a province of the Dominion of Canada, bounded on the N.E. and E. by the province of Quebec ; on the S .E., S.S.W. and W. by the River St. Lawrence and its great lakes ; and on the N.W. and N. by the North West Territories. Length from S.E. to N.W. about 750 miles, and from N.E. to S.W. about 500 miles. Area, land and inland waters, 107,780 square statute miles, equal to 68,979,372 acres. Area of the Ontario frontier waters of the St. Lawrence and its large lakes about 27,094 Bquare statute miles, or 17,340,160 acres. The surface of the country is gently un dulating, rather than mountainous, and is diversifled by rivers and lakes. The ridge of high land which enters the province at Niagara Falls enters to Hamilton, and is continued to Owen Sound, thence along the peninsula to Cabot Head and through the Manitoulin Islands of Lake Huron. The Laurentian hills run westward from the Thousand Islands, near Kingston, and ex tend north of Lake Simcoe, forming the coast of Georgian Bay and Lake Huron. A main water-shed separates the waters of the Ottawa from those of the St. Lawrence ; a minor one divides the streams flowing into Lake Simcoe, Georgian Bay and Lake Hu ron from those flowing into Lakes Erie and Ontario, The agricultural resources of the country are very great. The fertile belt extends over three-fourths of the present inhabited parts, and a vast area, in the hands of the Government, now open for settlement. Im mense crops of wheat are annually raised ; also oats, barley, Indian corn, rye, potatoes, turnips, &c, &c. The apple orchards of the south-western counties are very pro ductive, and pears, plums, grapes, cherries and various kinds of berries thrive luxuri antly. The climate of Ontario is agreeably tempered by the proximity of the great lakes. The winter is considerably shorter and milder than that of Quebec. The principal rivers of Ontario are the tributaries of the Ottawa ; the French, the Maganetawan, the Severn, and the Notta- wassaga falling into Georgian Bay ; the Saugeen, the Maitland, and the Aux Sables, falling into Lake Huron ; the Thames, run- Ding S.W. into Lake St. Clair ; the Grand, flowing S.E. into Lake Erie ; the Trent, in part of its course called the Otonabee, and the Moira, flowing S.E. into the Bay of Quinte ; and the Niagara, falling into Lake Ontario. The mighty St. Lawrence sweeps through the eastern part of the province, from Kingston, and the Ottawa forms part of its N.E. boundary. The lakes of Ontario are numerous and magnificent. The larg est are Lakes Superior, Huron, Erie and Ontario. They cover an area of 80,000 square miles, and contain nearly half the fresh water on the globe. The minor lakes are Nipigon, Simcoe, Nipissing, and those in the counties north of Lake Ontario, and in the Ottawa and the St. Lawrence Rivers. The principal bays are the Georgian, Notta- wassaga, Owen Sound, Long Point, Burling ton and Quints. The mineral wealth of the country is not surpassed, if indeed it be equalled, by any other in variety and richness. Iron is found in large quantities a short dis tance back of Lake Ontario, in the coun try between Georgian Bay and the Ottawa ; also, in the same region, copper, lead, ONT LovelVs Gazetteer of [341] British North America.

On the north shore of Lake Huron are extensive mines of copper, and on the shores of Lake Superior, particularly round Thunder Bay, are enormous silver deposits. Amethysts and abates are also found there, as well as mica, iron, gold, cobalt and bismuth. The petroleum wells in the south-westerly part of the province are yielding immense aud apparently inexhaustible supplies, and so are the salt wells at Goderich and Kincar dine. The article is obtained by evaporat ing the brine, and is exceedingly good for table use, having been found, upon chemi cal analysis, to be of almost perfect purity. Large peat beds exist in many parts of the province. The almost unlimited supply of water power throughout Ontario affords unusual facilities for manufactures to which that power is adapted, and in consequence vari ous descriptions of industry are springing up in all directions; steam power is also used to a large extent. The principal arti cles manufactured are cloth, linen, furni ture, sawn timber, flax, iron and hardware, paper, soap, starch, hats, caps, boots, shoes, leather, cotton and woollen goods, steam engines and locomotives, sewing machines, wooden ware of all descriptions, agricultural implements, &c. The settlements in Ontario have hitherto been made south of the Laurentian range of hills, which was thought to bound the lands fit for settlement, hut it has been dis covered that behind this range there is an other tract of rich agricultural land, as level as the St. Lawrence valley, and tim bered with a heavy growth of mixed white pine and hardwood. These lands are ap proached by the. Northern, Midland, Vic toria, ard Toronto and Nipissing railways on the one hand, and the upper Ottawa on the other. They have the basin of Lake Nipissing and the water-shed of the Ottawa for their drainage. Their waters are in part navigable, and the rest can be made 60. Settlement has already commenced to enter rapidly into this new district, consid erable tracts of which have been set aside as fresh grants to settlers. The railway system has made rapid strides in Ontario during the past 30 years. To-day she has no less than 3478 miles, and when those lines now under construction are completed, she will have, at the lowest calculation, 4000 miles. These facts point in no uncertain language to the great strides the province has made during the lifetime of many of the statesmen who now watch the destinies, not of a single province, but of a broad fertile dominion, greater in ex tent than the wealthy republic to the south of the line. Yet, extensive as railway building has been in Ontario during the past two or three decades, the future prom ises many more miles of railway. The raining and timber regions of the north have yet to be tapped and captured, figura tively speaking, by the iron horse. That stretch of country in the vicinity of Lake Superior which belongs to Toronto will in a There are several canals in Ontario. The Welland, between Lakes Erie and Ontario, to avoid the Niagara Falls ; the .Rideau, between Kingston and Ottawa ; and the St. Lawrence canals, rendered necessary by the rapids of that river. Two others have been for some time contemplated, but their con struction is doubtful, one to connect Geor gian Bay with Lake Ontario ; the other to connect Georgian Bay with the Ottawa river. The school system of Ontario is adrairst- ble. It affords the children of the rich and poor alike the means of free education. It is under the control of a Minister of Edu cation and a Chief Superintendent, and ex tends over the whole province. The schools are supported by a tax on property, with some assistance from the ' Legislature, and are free to all. Each Township is divided into school- sections, with a Board of School Trustees, composed of 3 persons, to each section. This Board employs the teacher and controls the school. There are 53 In spectors of schoolB for the entire province, but no Inspector has the supervision, of more than 120 or less than 50 schools. They are paid partly by the Council and partly by the Government. These gentlemen visit their respective schools twice a year, ex amine into the state of educational matters, and send an elaborate Report to the Chief Superintendent of the result of their in spection, and the exact standing pf the schools. Roman Catholics may, if they think proper, establish separate schools, ONT Lovell's Gazetteer of [342] British North America. ONT and are in such cases exempted from 'sup porting public schools, and receive a separ ate grant from the Government. In 1872 there were 4,598 public schools (of which 160 were Roman Catholic separate schools), with 446,326 pupils attending them. The amount of money expended in their support was 11,814,821. The School Act of 1871 has given an immense impetus to public school education, audit is confidently believed that the year immediately following its passage [ will show a much greater increase in educa tional statistics than has yet been known. The high (formerly grammar) schools of Ontario number 102, with 7',490 pupils. They are principally confined to cities, towns and villages. Pupils enter them from the pub lic schools, and thence to college aud the university. The Normal School at'Toronto is designed to perfect teachers iu their pro fession, aud to show them the best method of teaching. Upwards of 300 young men ' and women attend it annually. The system of Teacher's Certificate Is as follows : There is a Central Board ot Examiners, at Toronto, which issues 1st class certiflcates alone. Each County has a local Board of Examin ers for the granting of 2nd and 3rd class cer tiflcates. There are two examinations per annum, the papers being got up by the Cen tral Board and sent sealed up to the local Boards. Any candidate who fancies justice lias not been done to him may appeal to the Educational Department. Of late years the status of teaching qualifications has greatly increased. There are 17 Protes tants universities and colleges, and 3 Ro man Catholic colleges in Ontario. Private schools are few, and generally in cities and large towns. The total number of Educa tional Institutions in Ontario, in 1872, was 5,004, with 463,057 pupils, aud a total amount available for educational purposes of $2,- 629,570. Tho municipal system of Ontario is among the most perfect in the world. All religions are free without State preference. There are numerous public institutions throughout the province, chiefly under con trol or the Government. Of these are the Lunatic Asylums at Kingston, Toronto, London, Amherstburg and Orillia ; the Reformatory Prison at Penetanguishene ; the Asylum for the Blind at Brantford ; the Deaf and Dumb Asylum at Belleville ; the Normal School, University College, and Os goode Hall, Toronto. Other public build ings are in course of construction. The public affairs of the province are ad ministered by a Lieutenant Governor, an Executive Council of 5 members, and a Leg islative Assembly of 88 members, elected every 4 years. The laws and the mode of administering them are mainly the same as in England ; the practice, however, is simpler and far less expensive. The Courts are the Queen's Bench, Common Pleas and Chancery, each presided over by a Chief Justice and two assistants, and a Court of Error and Appeal, composed of a President and the Judges of Superior Courts of Law and Equity. In each county there is a County Court, pre sided over by a County Judge. The Judges of the Superior Court (who are all appointed by the Dominion Government) go circuit to each-county throughout the province twice a year, to hold assizes for the trial of civil and criminal cases. 'The Judges of the Court of Chancery also hold their courts in various counties as well as at Osgoode Hall.

This city has a population of over 70,000 : it is well situated on Lake On tario, very handsomely built, and contains a large number of flue buildings. Ottawa is the capital of the Dominion, and is beauti fully situated on the river of the same name . It contains the Parliament Buildings, one of the noblest structures on the American continent. Kingston is a well built and fortified city, beautifully situated at the outlet of Lake Ontario. Hamilton is a fine commercial city, at the head of navigation on Lake Outario. London is a handsome inland city, in the centre of the western peninsula. Guelph and Brantford are also cities. According to late returns, the total value of the imports of the province from all foreign countries in 1880 amounted to $27,- 869,444, and the exports to $28,063,980. The imports for Toronto alone amounted to $12,- 192,942. The province of Ontario contains many objects of interest to the tourist. Not to speak of its beautiful cities, the Thousand Islands of the St.Lawrence, and the unrival led Bcenery on the Great Lakes, there are the world-renowned Falls of Niagara, a never failing source of attraction, and the Falls of Kakabikki,on the River Kaministi- quai, 30 miles from its outlet into the head of Lake Superior. The scenery surrounding this fall, although less extensive, vies in grandeur and sublimity with that of Niagara Xn beholding it, the spectator is inspired with equal awe, the principal features are equally striking, while the deep intonation is more sensible than that of its rival, and has a nearer resemblance to the roar of dis tant thunder and the rumblings of an earth quake. The existence of Upper Canada as a dis tinct province can be dated only from the year 1791, previous to which it formed part of the old Province of Quebec. Major Gen eral J. G. Simcoe was the first Lieutenant Governor appointed, and the first Parlia ment met at Niagara on September 17, 1792. In 1820 dissensions of a political nature arose in Lower Canada, which went on in creasing in intensity year by year, deepened by the national prejudice of the French aud English colonists to each other, until, in 1834, it extended to Upper Canada, and finally terminated in insurrections in both provinces in 1837. These were, however, quickly suppressed. The result of these pro ceedings was'the reuniting of the provinces, which took place iu 1840. In 1867, under the Act of Confederation, Upper Canada was erected a province, under the name of On tario. It is the most populous province iu the Dominion, having a population, accord ing to the census of 1871, of 1,620,851. The Indians in Ontario, as far as known, number about 13,000. A work was published in 1863, entitled "Eighty Years' Progress of British North America," in which an exceedingly interest ing article from the pen of T. C. Keefer, C. E. , describes in lively and animating lan guage the aspect Upper Canada presented in 1777, only 14 years before it was erected into a Province. " Upper Canada was at that period in possession of the Northern Iroquois, a confederation of the most war like of the native tribes : and there are those yet living who remember when — save the lew families around the precincts of the old French forts— not a white man could be found over all the vast area of Canada West. Toronto was then an Indian village, whose warriors speared the salt water salmon in her harbor, or chased the deer through the county of York ; and their squaws then paddled canoes among the rice beds of the smaller lakes, and threshed out the wild grains over the gunwales of their canoes. In the ' Western peninsula the noble elk herded upon the prairies of St. Clair, or roamed over the oak forests, untroubled by the sound of the settler's axe, and swam the waters where paddle and screw, barque and brig now plow their busy way. Myriads of wild pigeons from the South annually in vaded the beech woods and bore down tho branches by their weight ; thousands of black squirrels from the East swam the broad Niagara, and marched westward in extended line ; while flocks of gorgeously clad turkeys and plump breasted quails stalked solemnly along the wild pathways of the forest, undisturbed by the hoarse roar of the locomotive. In every narrow valley and upon every living streamlet the labo rious beavers arrested the rich alluvion and prepared rich meadows for the flocks and herds of the red man's, successors. The hunter and the hunted have exterminated each other." ONTARIO, Wentworth co., Ont. See Winona.

OTTAWA, formerly BTTOWN, a city ot Ontario, capital of the 19ominion of Canada and of Carleton co., is beautifully situated on the south bank of the Ottawa River, at the outlet of the Rideau, and on the Canada Central and St. Lawrence and Ottawa railways, 54 miles N. of Prescott, 126 miles W. N. W. of Montreal, 95 miles N. E. of Kingston, and 450 miles from New York. It is one of the most flourishing cities in Ontario, being the entrepot of the great lumber trade of the Ottawa River and its tributaries. It is divided into Upper and Lower Town by the Rideau Canal, which connects it with Kingston. The locks here are eight in number and very massive. The town was founded in 1827 bv Col. Bv, R. E. It was incorporated a city, and its name changed to Ottawa, in 1854, and selected by Queen Victoria as the capital of Canada in 1858. The chief attraction in Ottawa is the gov ernment buildings, which occupy an ele vated piece of ground, about 2!J acres in ex tent and 150 feet above the river, known by the name of " Barrack Hill." The view from' this natural terrace is superb. The freat river with its moving rafts, steamers, arges, and canoes rolls swiftly on through splendid hill ranges towards the south. In the distance the fine suspension bridge . which spans the majestic river just below the Chaudiere Falls attracts the eye, even though it be tempted to rest upon /the wild beauty of Jrtie cascade sweeping by craggy rocks between abrupt islands, and plunging into the basin below, where, part ot its waters disappear in a mysterious way. Far beyond the cascade glitters the broad river swiftly rushing down the rapids Des Chenes ,; and in the remote background rise tower ing hills and mountains, often brilliant with purple and gold when the sun dips from view and gilds their lovely summit with his parting beams. The government buildings, the corner stone of which was laid by H. R. H. the Prince of Wales in September, 1860, are constructed of a light-colored sandstone found in the township of Nepean, in the valley of the Ottawa. The walls and arches are relieved with cut stone dressings of Devonian sandstone from Potsdam, N. Y. The roots are covered with purple and green slates, and the pinnacles ornamented with wrought iron castings. The style of architecture is the Italian gothic,,and the south front of the quadrangle is formed by the Parliament building, 500 feet in length. The two departmental buildings are 375 feet long. The rear is open and will be railed off with a suitable ornamental screen. The committee rooms occupy the front of the building. The library, a beautiful de tached circular building, with a dome 90 feet high, is in the rear of the central tower, 250 feet high. The two legislative halls are on each side of the library^ but in the main building. The dimensions of these halls are the same as those of the House of Lords, namely, 80 feet by 45 ; they are situated on the ground floor and lighted from above. The library is constructed after the plan of the new library of the British Museum, and will hold 300,000 vol umes. The two departmental -buildingB contain in the aggregate 300 rooms, and are intended to accommodate all the depart ments of the Government of the Dominion;. and are so constructed as to be capable of extension at any future time without injur ing the general architectural effect. The buildings cover nearly four acres, and cost about $4,000,000, Besides the above magnificent buildings Ottawa contains 24 churches, viz. : Church of England 4 ; Church of Rome 6 ; Presby terian 3 ; Church, of Scotland 1 ; Wesleyan Methodist 3 ; Episcopal Methodist 3 ; Con- gregationalist 1 ; Baptist 1 ; Catholic Apos tolic 1 ; Reformed Episcopal 1 ; Lutheran 1 ; 9 printing offices, several flouring mills, and large saw mills ; and has manufactories of iron castings, mill machinery, agricul tural implements, brooms, bricks, leather, paper, wooden ware, &c, and agencies of two telegraph and a number of assurance and insurance companies, and 9 banks. Two dailv newspapers are published in Ot tawa. The streets of the city are lighted with gas. Adjacent to Ottawa are several thriving villages, among others New Edinburgh and OVB LovelVs Gazetteer of [346] British North America. OXP Hull (now a city). " Rideau Hall," the resi dence of the Governor General, is in the former place. It is a handsome stone struc ture, with 35 acres of well laid out grounds, and beautiful avenues of shaded trees. A street railway connects these villages with Ottawa. The city returns two members to the House of Commons and one to the Provin cial Legislature.

The regu larity at which these " ovens " occur almost confutes the idea of their being merely cre ated by the action of the waves ; they ap pear rather to have been made by human efforts, though for what purpose, unless for mining, it would be difficult to conjecture. Three of the ovens are about 70 feet at the mouth and extend inwards upwards of 200 feet. The discovery of gold in quartz was made here in 1861, but gold was obtained from sea sand gathered on the shore in 1857 and 1859. The shore washings were aban doned in 1862 after about 3,000 oz. had been obtained \ it is stated that the sands are still gold bearing and worth testing. The quartz lodes increase in richness and in size as the depth increases. Very little quartz mining has, however, been done. Pop. 200.

Previous to 1825, Peter borough was known as Indian Plain or Scott's Landing. It was covered with scat tered oaks and small brush, and was on the portage of Lake Chemong, the head of the Otonabee navigation. In that year Colonel Peter Robinson, of Newmarket (a brother of the late Chief-Justice of Ontario), was sent out by Earl Bathurst in charge of 2000 emigrants. He conducted them from the south of Ireland to the Indian Plains, where he encamped them and subsequently settled them in the neighboring townships. Colonel Robinson then Uved in a tent on a rising ground close to the river side, and one day at a dinner party which he gave in his tent the question arose what name to give the future town. It was then decided that it should be called Peterborough, after Colonel Robinson. There were present at the din ner the Hon. Thomas A. Stewart, Mr. Alex. McDonald, Dr. Reid, of Perth, Mr. Sydney BeUingham, late M.P. for Argenteuil, and one or two others. The name was adopted, and Colonel Robinson gave orders that it should be laid out in town and park lots, and promised each of his guests a town and park lot. The land upon which the town stands was then valued at $1 an acre. PETERSBURG, a post village in Waterloo co., Ont., on the G. T.

The sea coast is well adapted for sea-bathing, and few dis tricts afford more romantic and sheltered drives. In close proximity to the town are quarries of a dark, fine-grained sandstone, admirably adapted for building purposes, the Pictou bank building giving a fair idea of the value of the material for architectu ral uses. Extensive coal fields are to be found at Stellarton, Westville, and the Vale. The Foord Pit, of which so much has been heard of late, is at a short distance from the thriving town of New Glasgow.

The Pictou Academy Was founded by Act of Incorporation of the Legislature of Nova Scotia in 1818. It was modelled on the plan of a Scottish univer sity, but without the power of conferring degrees.

It 1 has at present an organic connection with the public school system of the town of Pictou, being governed by a board consist ing of three members of the Academic Board of Trustees and three members of the Town Council.

JOHN'S ISLAND, a Province of the Dominion of Canada, situated in the Gulf Of St. Lawrence, between 46° and 47° 7' N. lat., and 62° and 64° 27' W. Ion. It is washed by the Gulf on the N., and separated by Northumberland Strait from New Bruns wick on the E. and Nova Scotia on the S. Greatest length, 130 miles; breadth, 34 miles —in its narrowest part, near the centre, it is only 4 miles wide. Area 2134 miles, or 1,365,760 acres. The coast line presents a remarkable succession of large bays and projecting headlands. Of the latter the most prominent are North Cape on the N. W., West Cape on the S. W-, and East Cape on the N. E. ; the largest bays are those of Rich mond on the N. W., Egmont on the S. W., Hillsborough on the S., and Cardigan on the E. These bays, by penetrating into the land from opposite directions, form narrow isthmuses which make a natural division of the Island into three distinct peninsulas. This natural division has been adopted as the basis of a nearly corresponding civil division into Prince county in the W., Queens county in the centre, and Kings county in the E. The surface of Prince Edward Island undulates gently, nowhere rising so high as to become mountainous or sinking so low as to form a monotonous flat. At one time the whole Island was covered with a dense forest of beech, birch, maple, poplar, spruce, fir, hemlock, larch and cedar ; and though destructive fires, lumbering and cultivation have made large gaps in it, a considerable part of the original forest still remains. The whole island is eminently agricultural and pastoral. The soil consists generally of a light reddish loam, sometimes approaching to a strong clay, but more frequently of a light and sandy texture, The prevailing tock is a reddish sandstone, but a large part of the surface is alluvial and entirely free from stone. No minerals of the least con sequence have yet been discovered, and even limestone and gypsum appear to be wanting. The climate is much milder than that of the adjoining continent, and the air, generally free from the fogs which spread along the shores of Nova Scotia, is remarka bly salubrious. The winter is long and cold ; but the summer, without being oppressively hot, is eminently fitted to promote the growth and maturity of all the ordinary cereals. The principal crops are wheat, barley and oats, all of these abundant and of excellent quality ; pease and beans are equally good, and potatoes and turnips are nowhere surpassed. The land not cultivable consists of soft, spongy turf, or a deep layer of wet, black mould, which may prove valuable for fuel. The fisheries are very Valuable, especially on the north coast, which is much frequented by mackerel aud cod. The manufactures are chiefly for domestic use. Shipbuilding is prosecuted with considerable enterprise. The public affairs of Prince Edward Is land are administered by a Lieutenant Governor, an Executive Council of 5 mem bers, and a Legislative Assembly of 22 representatives. Justice is administered according to the laws of England. The total population of the Island in 1871 was 94,021, an increase of 13,160 since 1861, and of 89,921 since it first became a British possession (1758). The following table shows the counties, with the capital of each : Counties. Capital. Queens. Charlottetown. Kings Georgetown. Prince Summerside. These counties are divided into 67 town ships and three royalties. The inhabitants consist of descendants of Scottish, Irish, Acadian, French, English, aud other set tlers. The free school system was introduced in 1853. There are about 375 district schools, 15 grammar schools, various private schools, a normal and model school, and two col leges, — Prince of Wales (Protestant), and St. Dunstan's (Roman Catholic). It is the law of the Island that the Bible be read in the public schools. The Lord Bishop of Nova Scotia exercises Episcopal authority over the Island. The Roman Catholics have one Diocese, Char- lettetown. The religious denominations in the pro vince, according to the census of 1871, are as follows : Church of England 7,220 Church of Rome '. 40,765 Presbyterians. 29,579 Wesleyan Methodists 8,361 Baptists 4,371 Bible Christians 2,709 Other Protestants : 1,008 Quakers 8 Total 94,021 Prince Edward Island has telegraphic communication with the continent of Amer ica and Europe by means of a submarine cable, 11 miles in length, connecting the Island with New Brunswick. I The Prince Edward Island railway tra verses nearly the whole length of the Island from Tignish on the north to Georgetown and Souris on the east, connecting also with Summerside (Bedeque harbor) and Char lottetown on the south. Summerside isabout 3% hours' run by steamer from Point du Chene, the northern terminus of the New Brunswick railways. Charlottetown is about 60 miles or 5 hours' run by steamer from Pictou, the northern terminus of the Nova Scotia railways. Tignish and Cascum- peque are depats of the Gulf fisheries. During the season of navigation, there is tri-weekly communication with Pictou, Nova Scotia, aud Shediac, New Brunswick, in addition to which there are steamers PRI Lovell's Gazetteer of [363] British North America. PUG connecting with Quebec and the Gulf Ports to the north and Halifax and Boston to the south. Navigation generally closes about the middle of December, and is resumed about the end of April or beginning of May. During this time mails and passengers are conveyed across the Strait in ice boats, which ply between Cape Traverse iu Prince Edward Island and Cape Tormentine in New Brunswick. A steamer also runs between Georgetown and Pictou, Nova Scotia, nearly the whole winter. Charlottetown. the capital, is situated at the confluence of the York and Hillsborough Rivers, and contains nearly 10,000 inhabi tants. Georgetown and Summerside are the other chief towns, the latter, however, from its situation monopolizes the business of the district, owing to its better harbor. This Island was amongst the early discov eries of Cabot, but no claim was ever made by the English on that account. The French afterwards assumed it, as part of the discov eries of Verazino; and in 1663 a grant was made of it to Sieur Doublet, a French naval officer. Little progress was made iu settling the Island till after the peace of Utrecht in 1715, when its fertility and natural advantages allure'd great numbers of Acadians from Cape Breton. It was taken by the British in 1755, restored by the treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle, retaken and finally ceded to Great Britain in 1758. It was then placed under the government of Nova Scotia. In 1768 it was erected into a separate government, though at the time it did not possess five resident proprietors, nor did its total number of inhabitants exceed 160 families. In 1773 the first House of Assembly met, and the constitution of the colony was definitely settled under the administration of GovernorPatterson, which lasted from 1768 to 1789. In 1799 the name of the Island was changed from St. John to Prince Edward, in compliment to the Duke of Kent, who in that year, honored the Island with a visit. In 1873 it was admitted into the Dominion of Canada. The Island is represented by six mem bers in the Dominion House of Commons and four in the Dominion Senate.

' QUEBEC, after Montreal the most popu lous city in the Dominion of Canada, capital of the Province of Quebec, is situated on the left bank of the River St. Lawrence, which here receives the St. Charles, 400 miles from the mouth of the River St. Law rence at Point des Monts, 180 miles N. E. of Montreal, and 328 miles N.N.W. of Port land, Me. Lat. (of N. E. bastion) 46° 49' 6" N., Ion. 71° 13' 45" W. Mean temperature in winter 10°, in summer 68° Fahrenheit. Mean oE the year 39°. . The city lias a remarkably picturesque situation between the two rivers at the N. E extremity of a narrow but elevated table land, which, for about eight miles, formsthe left bank of the St. Lawrence. Cape Dia mond, the extremity of the table land, is 333 feet above the level of the river, to which it presents a nearly precipitous face ; the descent to the St. Charles is more eradual. The distance from one river to the other across the ridge is rather more than a mile. Opposite Cape Diamond the St. Lawrence is contracted to a breadth of only 1314 yards ; but immediately below, at the confluence of the St. Charles, it spreads out into a broad and beautiful basin more than 2500 yards wide, forming a capacious and excellent harbor. The spring tides rise and fall 18 feet. Quebec is divided into two parts, called Upper and Lower Towns. The Upper Town occupies the highest part of the promontory ; it is surrounded with walls, and otherwise fortified- The ancient citadel, which crowns the summit of Cape Diamond, covers, with its numerous works, an area of 40 acres, and from its position is probably the strongest fortress in America. The chief ascents to the Upper Town are by a steep and narrow winding street and by a flight of steps. The Lower Town, which is the seat of commerce, is built around the base bf Cape Diamond, where, in many places, the rock has been cut away to make room for the houses. On the side of the St. Charles the water at flood tide formerly washed the very foot of the rock, but from time to time wharf after wharf has been projected to wards low water mark, and foundations made sufficiently solid on which to buUd whole streets, where boats and even vessels of considerable burthen once rode at anchor. The banks of both rivers are now lined with warehouses and wharves, the latter jutting about 200 feet into the stream, and along which the water is of suf ficient depth to admit vessels of the largest size. The streets are generally irregular and narrow, in few instances are they well paved and lighted. The houses are princi pally of stone and brick, two or three stories high, the older ones with steep and quaint-looking roofs. The city has several times Buffered from disastrous fires, but the result has been the erection of more attractive buildings, and a consequent great improvement in the gen eral appearance of the city. During the year 1854, a plentiful supply of water was introduced from Lake St. Charles. ¦ In the Upper Town are several squares and public walks commanding views un rivalled for their varied and- picturesque beauty. In one stands a substantial monu ment, erected to the joint memory of Gen* erals Wolfe and Montcalm, the English and French commanders, who fell at the taking of Quebec in 1759. It consists of an obelisk resting on a granite pedestal, the whole 65 feet high. A monument 40 feet in height marks the spot where General Wolfe fell on the Plains of Abraham ; while on the St. Foy road stands an iron pillar surmounted QUE LovelVs Gazetteer of [365] British North America. QUE by a bronze statue, presented by Prince Napoleon Bonaparte in 1855, intended to commemorate a fierce struggle which took place here in 1760 between the British and French troops. Among the public buildings of Quebec may be mentioned the Parliament Build ings, the Roman Catholic Cathedral, an ir regular building, capable of containing 4000 persons, and covering, with the uni versity attached, an area of 8 acres ; the English Cathedral, surmounted by a lofty spire ; and St, Johns Free Scotch Church, also adorned with a spire, occupying ele vated positions hi the Upper Town. There are in all 19 churches in Quebec, and 1 Synagogue. Of the churches 7 are Church of England ; 7 Roman Catholic ; 1 Church of Scotland ; 1 Presbyterian ; 1 Baptist ; 1 Congregational, and 1 Wesleyan Methodist. The educational institutions comprise 3 Roman Catholic Colleges, viz. : Laval Uni versity, with faculties of law, medicine and arts j the Grand Seminary, and the Minor Seminary ; the Ursuline convent, an exten sive establishment founded in 1641 ; several nunneries ; Morrin College, with 10 profes- BorB : Laval Normal and Model School ; the Quebec High School ; and a number of academies and private and public schools. There are in addition the Canadian and Me chanics' Institutes, provided with libraries and reading rooms ; the Literary and His torical Society, the oldest chartered institu tion of the kind in Canada, having been founded in 1824, and possessing , valuable " Records of the Realm," in 80 or 90 folios, and a large collection of historical manu scripts, but nearly the whole of its museum, and a great part of. its library, were de stroyed by fire with the Parliament build ings in 1854; the Entomological Society, St. Patrick's Literary Institute, Advocates' Library, Board of Trade, and Merchants' Exchange. Eight daily newspapers are published in Quebec, 5 of which are in the French lan guage. The principal benevolent institutions are the Marine Hospital, the Hotel Dieu, the General Hospital, and the Lunatic Asy lum at Beauport. Quebec has the head offices of 3 banks, viz. : Quebec Bank, Banque Nationale, and Union Bank of Lower Canada, besides which there are 2 savings banks, and agen cies of the Bank of Montreal, Merchants Bank, and Bank of British North America. . Shipbuilding is the, chief manufacturing industry of Quebec. There are also manu factories of iron castings, machinery, cut lery, nails, leather, musical instruments, boots and shoes, paper, India rubber goods, rope, tobacco, steel, etc. Snebec is an important port of Canada, the most ancient. The great staple of export is timber, Montreal being the port where the agricultural exports are chiefly exchanged for supplies of foreign goods. The timber is furnished principally by the Ottawa and St. Maurice Rivers. As the rafts come down the river, they are collect ed into what are called Coves and secured by booms moored along the banks, the tim ber being partly afloat, partly aground, ac cording to the rise or fall of the tides. These coves extend almost continuously along the left bank of the St. Lawrence, for a distance of six miles abovethe town,through- out the whole of which, at certain seasons, may be seen a mass of logs with a breadth varying from 150 to 200 yards. There are also extensive timber and deal sawing es tablishments near the city, on the right bank of the St. Lawrence. Quebec returns three members to the House of Commons, and three to the Pro vincial Legislature. It is the seat of the See of two bishopB, the Lord Bishop of Q«e- bec (Church of England), and Archbishop of Quebec (Church of Rome). Pop. in 1832, 27,562 ; in 1844, 34,600 ; in 1852, 42,052 ; in 1861, 51,100 ; and in 1871, 59,699. Quebec was first visited by Jacques Car- tier in 1535.. It then consisted of an Indian village called Stadacona. In July, 1608, Champlain founded the city, giving it its present name. The progress of its aggran dizement was slow, in consequence of the hostilities of the powerful Iroquois. In 1629 it fell into the hands of the English ; but with the whole of Canada was restored to the French, in 1632. From this period some attention was paid to the increase of the city ; and in 1663, when the colony was made a royal govemmont, it became the capital. In 1690 the English attempted to reconquer it, but met with a disastrous de feat ; but in 1759 it was captured by the brave General "Wolfe, and has since Deen under the British Crown. An unsuccessful attempt was made by the Americans to carry the city by assault on the night of December 31, 1775, when General Mont gomery was slain.

They consist of the Notre Dame or Green Mountains, so called from the fine forests that cover their slopes, which, from the latitude of the, city of Quebec, follow nearly the whole course of the St. Law rence, on the S. side of which they are situated, and terminate on the Gulf of the same name, between Baie des Chaleurs and Gaspe 'Point. On the N. side of the river is the Laurentian range, which forms undulating ridges of about 1000 feet in ele vation, the Mealy mountains stretching from about lat. 75° W. to Sandwich Bay, computed to be about 1500 feet high, and always covered with snow ; and the Wot- chish mountains, a short range, of crescent form, between the Gulf of St. Lawrence and Hudson's Bay. The rocky masses con nected with the mountain chains that line the St. Lawrence advance in many places close to the scream, forming precipitous cliffs, frequently 200 and 300 feet high. The banks of the St. Lawrence are in many places composed of schist, in a decaying or mouldering condition, and in every quarter granite is found, more or less inclined, but never parallel to the horizon. In the Gaspe district numerous and beautiful specimens of quartz have been obtained : indications of coal have also been traced. The lime stone formation extends over 30,000 square miles ; the dip is moderate, and the strata of limestone generally undisturbed. Along the shores of the estuary and Gulf of St. Lawrence horizontal banks of shells appear at various heights from 10 to 100 feet above high water mark, and inland beaches of sand and shingle, with similar shells ; as also elevated limestone rocks, scooped out by the waves, and showing lines of lithodo- mous perforations — all indicating the suc cessive upheaving of the land since the sea was inhabited by the existing species of testacea. Earthquakes have been very frequent in the province, and some of them of considerable violence. The province of Quebec is richly endowed with miues of gold, copper, iron and other ores. Gold is found chiefly on the banks of the Chaudiere. Copper is found in large quantities in the Eastern townships. Iron is found almost every where, and is of super ior quality. Lead, silver, zinc, platinum, Ac., also occur in various sections. The great River St. Lawrence flows through the Province. Just above Montreal it receives from the N. W. the Ottawa, a river 800 miles long, and in no degree in ferior to it in interest. Below Montreal it receives, on the right, the Richelieu River, having its source in Lake Champlain ; the St. Francis, rising in Lake Memphremagog ; and the Chaudiere, the outlet of Lake Me gantic j and, on the left, the St. Maurice, the Batiscan and the Saguenay Rivers, from 200 to 400 miles in length. The latter is the outlet of the large and beautiful Lake St. John. The climate of Quebec, though similar to that of Ontario, is colder in winter and warmer in summer. Spring bursts forth in great beauty, and vegetation is rapid. In winter the cold iB generally steady j and the atmosphere is clear and bracing, which ren ders the sleighing very agreeable and pleas ant. Winter generally commences the latter end of November and lasts until the end of March. During the winter months the trees are oftentimes covered with frost. Nothing can be imagined more beautiful and brilliant than the effect of sunshine on a calm day on the frozen boughs, where every particle of the icy crystals sparkles, and nature seems decked in diamonds. The soil is generally rich and adapted to the growth of cereals, hay and green crops. Apples and plums grow in abundance. The freater portion of the province is covered y forests consisting chiefly of white and red pine. Numerous quantities of this timber are annually sent to England. The other kinds of timber are ash, birch, beech, elm, hickory, black walnut, maple, cherry, but ternut, basswood, spruce, fir, &c. The lumber regions of Canada must, under judicious management, long remain a fruitful source of revenue to the provinces of Quebec and Ontario. The augmenting and progressive demand in Great Britain and the TJmted States, the West Indies, and South America, for rough and manufactured timber has given an enormous value within the last decade to timber limits ; and as a natural result, explorations have been push ed far into the interior, and regions long neglected have acquired a commercial value. If we examine the records of the Crown Lands Department for the province of Quebec, we find evidence to show that large areas have been acquired at prices far be yond the rates of former days. Thus in 1867, when the British North American provinces were confederated, and each province in vested with the control of the forest lands within its limits, rough surveys had been made of 192,000 square miles, though only a small portion had been leased. In 1881 Quebec had 1683 miles of railway in operation, viz. ; Miles.

Whenever a new district is sufficiently populous to form a parish, the Roman Catholic Diocesan, Bishop, upon the requisition of a majority of the inhabitants, orders its canonical erection into a parish. QUE LovelVs Gazetteer of [367] British North America. QUE By a proceeding somewhat analogous the civil authorities order the civil erection of municipal corporations. The townships are of English origin. After the cesBion of Canada to Great Britain, the English land system of holding in free and commou soc- cage was instituted for the feudal system upon all Crown Lands, and then the town ship took the place of the seigniory. The regular limits of a township are ten miles square, of 100 superficial miles. Such town ships as are not sub-divided into parishes preserve for all municipal or other pur poses their legal limits. The counties were established for the purposes of representa tion, each county having the right to send one member to the House of Commons every five years, and one to the Local Legis lature every four years. In addition to this each county formB a registration division for registration of mortgages, &c. The parish and township municipalities com prised in a county form what is called a county municipality. The province is di vided into 65 electoral districts, viz. : Counties.

For judicial purposes the province is di vided into 20 districts, each judicial district having ample and equal jurisdiction in all matters, except as to revision and appeal. The Superior Court sits in revision only at Montreal and Quebec ; the Court of Appeal also sits only at Montreal and Quebec. Public instruction is under the control of the Superintendent of Education who is as sisted by a Deputy and a Council of 21 members, appointed by the Lieutenant Governor, 14 of whom are Roman Catholics and 7 Protestants. Primary education is so far compulsory that every citizen is bound to contribute a moderate tax assessed on his property. In municipalities where there are different religious denominations the school commissioners of the majority govern. The schools of the minority are called dissentient schools, whose trustees are invested with the same authority as the commissioners of schools of the majority. In the cities of Montreal and Quebec there are separate boards of commissioners for the Protestant and Roman Catholic schools. Teachers are trained in Normal schools, supported at the expense of the Province. The Protestant Universities are McGill College, at Montreal, founded in 1827, and Bishop's College, LennoxviUe, founded in 1843. The Roman Catholic University of Laval was founded by the Quebec Seminary in 1852. The prevailing religion is that of the Church of Rome. The Roman Catholic^ Dioceses are seven in number, viz : the Arch diocese of Quebec, and the Dioceses of Montreal, Three Rivers, St. Hyacinthe, Sherbrooke, Rimouski and Chicoutimi.- The Protestant Dioceses are two in number : Montreal and Quebec. According to the QUE LovelVs Gazetteer of [368] British North America. QUE census of 1871, the religious denominations in the province were as follows : Church of England 62,449 Church of Rome 1,019,850 Church of Scotland 13,023 Presbyterians 33,142 Weslevan Methodists 26,737 Other Methodists 7,259 Baptists 8,686 Congregationalists 5,240 Unitarians 1,098 Miscellaneous Creeds 11,607 Jews 549 Ofnoreligion 420 No creed stated 1,461 Total.,.: 1,191,516 There are four cities in the province : Montreal, population 170,000; Quebec, 60,000; Three Rivers 10,000; and St. Hyacinthe, 4000. The principal manufactures are cloth, linen, furniture, leather, sawn lumber, flax, hardware, paper, chemicals, soap, boots and shoes, cotton and woollen goods, steam engines and locomotives, woodenware of aU descriptions, agricultural implements, ships, &c. The facilities for manufacturing afforded by abundant water-power are ex cellent. The public affairs of the province are ad ministered by a Lieutenant Governor, an Executive Council of 7 members, a Legis lative Council of 24 members, appointed for life, and a Legislative Assembly of 65 members. The judicial department com- g rises a Court of Queen's Bench, with a hief Justice aud 5 assistants ; a Superior Court, with Chief Justice and 28 assistants ; a Court of vice Admiralty; Courts of Quarter Sessions ; and Courts for the sum mary trial of small causes- According to late returns the total value of the imports from all foreign countries in 1880 amounted to $43,544,132 and the ex ports to $41,447,209. The imports for Mon treal alone amounted to $37,073,068, and exports $30,224,673. The chief articles ex ported were pot and pearl ashes, flour, wheat, oats, barley, butter, cheese, copper, wool, and lumber. In 1880 there arrived at the several ports of the province 1149 ves sels with an aggregate burthen of 1,137,027 tons. During the same period there cleared 1228 vessels ; tons 1,096,593. The commerce of the province is greatly facilitated by several canals which avoid the most violent rapids of the St. Lawrence. These are- the Lachine canal, extending from Montreal to Lake St. Louis; the Beau harnois canal, uniting Lakes St. Francis and St. Louis ; the Chambly canal, uniting Lake Champlain with the Richelieu River ; and the Carillon and Grenville canal. The province contains many grand and beautiful objects of interest to the tourist. The Ottawa and its tributaries abound in falls and rapids of an exceedingly pictur esque character. Ascending this stream a little above Rigaud you have Carillon Falls, a series of rapids 12 miles in length. Near Ottawa city a branch, called the Rideau, pours its waters down a perpendicular bed of blue limestone, BO feet, into the Ottawa. The Chaudiere Falls (the Indian name of which is Kanajo, " the Boiling Pot,") in the same vicinity, are wild and grand. The Fall in no place exceeds 40 feet, but the rapids extend 6 miles, aud the water foams, tosses, and tumbles among rocks of every shape, in perpetual variety, and in such \a manner as never to weary the eye, appear ing like a multitude of different streams "struggling for a passage." An excellent view of the whole is had from a fine sus pension bridge over the Ottawa. One por tion of the river is separated from the main stream, and falls into a subterranean pas sage. When this part of Canada was an un broken wilderness, an enterprising Ameri can named Philemon Wright established himself at the falls, selecting the mouth or Hull side as his residence. His descend ants include the present Commons' Mem bers for the counties of Pontiac and Ottawa, The late Philemon Wright had his atten tion early attracted to the strange phenom enon of a considerable portion of the Chau diere Falls descending into a rocky basin without any apparent outlet. Having built the first saw mill ever erected on the Ot- tawa River, at that part of the fails imme diately above the lost channel, and being curious to know its outlet, he followed the course of the river downwards for sixty miles, examining the shore line oil each side, but he was unable to discover the slightest trace of the saw dust or saw mill debris daily cast into the- lost channel, and to this day the enigma has baffled curiosity and science, and the outlet is a mystery. At these and the other falls are timber slides constructed at great expense. Les Chats, an other series of falls or rapids, 30 miles farther up, are formed by the river break ing, at high water, over the rocks in 33 distinct shoots, spreading across the river to a width of 4 miles. Some of these separ ate shoots would, in many places, be called large rivers, and are very remarkable falls, and well worthy the attention of the tourist. At Calumet there is another rapid of scarcely less interest ; a fall of 120 feet in the Keepawa branch ; besides, a number of inferior falls and rapids, studded with saw mills, and the banks in many places wild and rugged ; while the river often expands into beautiful lakes. The well known Falls of Montmorency, 7 mUes below Que bec, with a perpendicular descent of 240 feet ; the Falls of the Chaudiere on the S. side of the St. Lawrence, 10 miles above Quebec, with a perpendicular pitch of 125 feet down a deep chasm; the beautiful Falls of the St. Anne, on the N. shore of the St. Lawrence, 22 miles below Quebec ; and the Long Sault, Cedars and Lachine rapids are all en the fashionable route of tourists. But the grandest river scenery is . to be seen on the Saguenay River, which enters the St. Lawrence about 120 miles be low Quebec. The last 60 miles of its course are exceedingly sublime. The banks, vary ing in height from 600 to 1500 feet, not oniy often perpendicular, but absolutely over hanging the dark, deep river below " as if QUE LovelVs Gazetteer of [369] British North America. RAC to gaze at its own rugged features." / The precipitancy continues below as well as above the water, which has been found as deep within 5 feet of the shore as in the middle; and near its mouth a line of ;J0U0 feet failed to reach the bottom. The depth in other parts varies from 100 to 1000 feet. The upper part of the Saguenay abounds in f aUs and rapids. Excursions are made from Montreal and Quebec to this river in steamboats. The scenery on the N. bank of the St. Lawrence alone is worth the trip. The Indian population of the province of Quebec in 1871 was 8657 — Nipissings, Algon- quins, Abenakis, Hurons, Amelicites, Mic- macs, Montagnais and Nasquapees. The province is said to have been dis covered by Sebastian Cabot in 1497 ; but the first settlement made by Europeans was in 1541, near Quebec, by Jacques Cartier, a French navigator, who sailed up the St. Law rence, to which he gave its present name. In 1608, a permanent settlement was made by the French upon the present site of the city of Quebec. From this period till 1759 the French continued to occupy the country, though much harassed by various tribes of Indians, particularly the Iroquois ; but in the year last named an English army, under General Wolfe, captured Quebec ; and by September 8, 1760, all other places within the government of Canada were surrendered to the British, and the French power en tirely annihilated. In 1792 the province was divided into Upper and Lower Canada, but in 1840, after serious political dissensions, they were reunited under the name of the United Provinces of Canada. In 1867, they were again separated, and under the names respectively of Ontario and Quebec, form the two most important provinces in the Dominion of Canada. QUEEN CHARLOTTE'S ISLANDS, a group of islands in the Pacific Ocean, off Sie coast of British Columbia, N. of Van couver Island, between lat. 52° and 54° N, and Ion. 131° and 133° W. These islands form part of British Columbia. They were first discovered by the celebrated navigator Capt. Cook, in 1778, and taken possession of by Dixon in 1787 in the name of the British Crown. The group consists of two large islands and 2 smaller ones, lying in an archi pelago of isleta The 4 principal ones, caUed Graham, Moresby, North and Pres cott, are divided merely by narrow arms of the sea, and taken together measure 180 ruUes in length by 60 miles at greatest breadth. This group is described as the Eden of the North Pacific. The climate is So delicious, caused in some degree by the Heated River! or the Pacific Gulf stream, that skirts the coast of Japan, and with a speed of 80 miles every 24 hours, runs N. ftnd washes the coast of British Columbia. The Queen Charlotte Islands teem with various mineral products. Gold bearing quartz of very rich quality was extracted at a point called Mitchellfs Harbor, as far back as 1852. Copper and iron ores exist ; and a fine vein of Anthracite coal, of a superior quality, has been partially wrought, but the working is at present suspended for want of 24 capital . These islands are hilly, though not mountainous ; the interior is clothed with magnificent forests of the finest timber ; the coasts are indented with inviting harbors.

ROCKY LAKE, a station on the I. R., in Halifax co., N.S., 11 miles from HaUfax. The Nova Scotia lea Company has its store- houses here ROCKY MOUNTAINS, called also the CHIPPEWAYAN MOUNTAINS, a chain in the central and W. part of North America ; commencing in New Mexico, in about 32° 30' N. lat., near Fort Webster, it extends nearly N.N. W., throughout the N. Sortiou of the continent and the Polar cean, .terminating W. of the mouth of the Mackenzie River, in lat. 69° N„ Ion. 135° W. This range, in connection with the Andes, of which it may be said to be a continuation, forms the longest, and, according to Hum boldt, the most uniform chain of mountains on the globe. Somewhat more than half of the entire chain belongs to North America, the name. Rocky Mountains, being usually applied to that portion only which is com prised within the United States and Domin ion of Canada, although the exact limit of this mountain range towards the S. can scarcely be said to be determined. The entire length, however, of the chain, following the windings, may be stated in round numbers at 3000 miles. The E. boundary of the Rocky Mountains in lat. 38° N., is in 107° 20' W. Ion. ; in lat. 40° N., 108° 30' W. Ion.; in lat. 63° N, 124" 40' W. Ion. ; in lat. 68° N., 130° 30' W. Ion. Not withstanding this general tending to the W., the continent widens so much more in the same direction that this chain, which, in South and Central America, and Mexico, is comparatively a coast range, is several hundred leagues inland in the United States and Canada. The highest known peaks within the United States are Fremont's 13,570 feet, and Pike's Peak, 11,197 feet high ; and Mount Brown and Mount Hooker, in Canada, near 53° N. lat., the former about 16,000 and the .latter 15,690 feet above the sea level. We are very imperfectly ac quainted with this system of mountains ; the general altitude of the range, however, is' supposed to vary from 10,000 to 14,000 feet ; it is said that peaks have been measured of 18,000 feet in elevation. Prob ably no mountains of the same altitude can be so readily traversed as the Rocky Moun tain chain, owing to the great breadth of its base and its gentle acclivity. Among the most remarkable of the numerous passes may be mentioned that leading from the head waters of the Athabasca to those of the Columbia between Mount Brown aud Mount Hooker, and called the Athabasca Portage ; it has a height of 7300 feet, and has only been used by the traders of the Hudson's Bay Company as the principal pass into the basin of Columbia. The f oflow- lng are the measurement of 8 other passes in the Dominion of Canada : 1. Bed Stone Creek or Boundary Pass from Waterton River to the Kootanie, 6030 feet above the sea. 2. British Kootanie Pass, by Ramsay Biver to the Kootanie. '5960 feet- J. Crow's Nest Pass, by Crow River to the Kootanie. 4. Kanaiiaski Pass, from Fort Bow by Ram say River to the Kootanie (with a short tunnel 4600 feet). 5985 feet. 5. Vermillion Pass, from the South Sas katchewan by Fort Bow (4100 feet) to the Kootanie. 4947 feet. 6. Kicking Horse Pass, by Bow Biver and Kicking Horse Biver to the Upper Co lumbia. 5420 feet. 7. Howse Pass, from Deer River by Bine- berry River to the Upper Columbia. 6347 feet. 8. Tete Jaune or Yello whead Pass, from the Athabasca to the Upper Fraser. 3760 feet. The principal pass on United States ter ritory is the South Pass, in about lat. 42° 30' N., and Ion. 109° 30' W. Its elevation is about 7500 feet above the sea. The Union Pacific railroad crosses the Rocky Moun tains near the sources of the Missouri and Columbia at an elevation of about 6000 feet above the sea. Amid the valleys and forges of this stupendous system of mountains, some of the largest rivers of the globe have their birth. Of" these, the Athabasca, Peace and Mackenzie find their outlet in the Polar Sea ; the Saskatchewan in the Atlantic, through Hudson's Bay ; the Missouri and its tributaries find an exit in the Missis sippi ; while the Rio del Norte^ the Colorado and the Columbia take opposite directions, the firBt through the valley of New Mexico to the Gulf of Mexico ; the second through the desertB of Utah to the Gulf of Califor nia ; while the last, from the N., bursting through the Cascade and coast ranges, rushes to join the mighty Pacific, bearing the only water that reaches that Ocean di rectly from this range. Of the geological structure of the Rocky Mountains little is as yet known. Volcanic rocks are known to exist in many places on the slopes or sides. According to the most recent reports there is, between the heads of Madison Biver and the upper waters of the Yellow- RON Lovell's Gazetteer of [377] British North America. ROS stone, a volcanic region of perhaps 100 square miles in extent. Hot springs are found not only in this region, but in various other places on the E. and W. declivities of the Rocky Mountain range. Near 42° 37' N. lat., and 111° 45' W. Ion., there are a number of fountains, the waters of which effervesce with the carbonic acid that they contain. From this circumstance they have received the name of " Beer, or Soda Springs." The most remarkable of these throws up a jet d'eau of about 3 feet high, accompanied with a subterraneous noise, which, together with the rushing of the water, resembles the sound of a steamboat in motion, whence it has been termed the "Steamboat Spring." Inexhaustible coal fields skirt the Rocky Mountains through 12 degrees of latitude, chiefly in British terri tory. The route of the Canadian Pacific railway will be through this coal district, and wfll cross the Rooky Mountains by the YeUowhead Pass.

HELEN'S ISLAND, a beautiful . island in the St. Lawrence, opposite the E. end of the city of Montreal, formerly the property of the Barons of Longueuil but now of the Crown. It is about three-quar ters of a mile long by one-third of a mile broad, and is clothed with fine trees. This island was granted by the King of France to the Sieur le Moine de Longueuil, on the 3rd of November, 1672. In May, 1771, the Baroness de Longueuil married David Alexander Grant (grandfather of the pre sent Seigneur) and they lived in the family mansion, a splendid stone edifice, with outbuildings and a large garden attached, on the south bank of the island, opposite Longueuil. In 1812, the British Government purchased St. Helen's Island, with Isle Ronde and Isle au Praises, for £15,000, and the Baronial residence was converted into the officers' quarters. During the occupa tion of the island by the Imperial authorities (over 50 years) several valuable buildings were erected and improvements of various kinds effected. It was the depot for valua ble stores of every kind for the Montreal district. > The grand magazine alone would accommodate nearly 6,000 barrels of powder, while expensive magazines and other build ings could be readily fitted up for 6,000 more. The ordnance store building next the river, opposite Molson's distillery, is of immense capacity, and in good condition, and will easily accommodate an equipment of six field batteries of artillery ; the armory on the east side, built a short time before the departure of the" military, and 2 Stories high, is also of great capacity ; the f round floor alone, in addition to accommo- ation for powder, will hold 40,000 stand of arms. The infantry barracks, with bomb proof kitchen and Commissariat bakery, wiU easily accommodate 7 or 8 officers and 100 men. At the northern extremity are work shops and cottages for artificersand laborers, a practice battery for a floating target in Hochelaga Bay, and a good wharf with 10 feet alongside at summer level. At the south of upper end of the island there is a rifle range of BOO yards, with metal shields and target, and a saluting platform battery of 9 guns on the Bide facing the city. There are stiU the remains of an old French redoubt at the south west point opposite the city, and lines of entrenchments on the opposite extremity facing Hochelaga Bay. The only works of defence erected by the British Government appear to have been two block houses for the accommodation of about 400 men, principally for musketry and light guns on the top, and the construction of a ditch and a parapet in front of the soldiers' barracks opposite the city. The block houses were built entirely of wood, and, being of little value in modern warfare, have been allowed to fall into decay and become useless. The most elevated part of the Island, near the centre, is about 125 feet above the datum line of the river adopted by the Harbor Commissioners, and farther northward, in rear of the ordnance store building, the site of one of the old block houses is 100 feet above the river datum line. St. Helen's Island has been since its dis covery a pecuUar object of attention and admiration. In 1611 Samuel de Champlain contemplated settling upon it with his family, as described in the Histoire de la Colonic Frangaise en Canada, page 127, tome 1, as follows : " Proche de la Place Royale-(Montreal), et au fleuve St. Laurent, il rencontra une ' petite lie que sa situation et elevation sem- blent avoir f ortifiee naturellement : et dans ses vues pour l'avenir du Canada, il jugea qu'on pourraity batir une bonne et forte vule; mais ce qui est digne d'attention, il la nomma Sainte HUene, sans doute pour f aire partager les avantages de son f utur etablis- sement a Helene BouUlee, son epouse, qui, Ear sa dot, lui donnait le moyen d'en ieter is premiers f ondements. Car il est a re- marquer qu'il ne donne le nom de Ste. Helene a aucune des lies sans nombre qu'il rencontra au-dessous et dessus de Quebec, sinon a celle qui etait a c6te de la Place- Royale, ou. il avait resolu de s'etablir." It will thus been seen from the above extract the opinion formed by Samuel de Champlain of the natural features of this island as a place of security and defence, and there is every reason to believe that the early Jesuit missionaries sought refuge here from the ferocious attacks of the Iroquois, who exceeded all other tribes of the Abori gines in savage and unrelenting barbarities m their treatment of European settlers, and the Hurons and other tribes disposed to be friendly to the stranger. It was also a depot for provisions, arms and storeB, while settle ments were forming on the main land. St. Helen's Island is considered of great im- portance by miUtary men as a defence of St. H Lovell's Gazetteer of [389] British North America. St. J the commercial metropoUs of the Domi nion. The -difficulty of approach by an enemy is almost insurmountable — the shal lowness of the St, Lawrence in certain parts of the basin in front of the city of Montreal, and the force of the current combined, render the passage intricate and difficult, even to the experienced pilots of the steam ferry steamers. The difficulty of access in the east channel between the island and the mainland is still greater. This beautiful island is the property of the Dominion Government, and is in charge of the Cor poration of Montreal, who have converted it into a magnificent park. In the summer months it is the daily resort of thousands. ST. HELENS, a poBt village in Huron co., Ont., 20 miles from Goderich, 6 miles from Lucknow.

There are 23 places of worship in St. John, viz. : Church ' of England 4 ; Roman Catholic 3; Presbyterian 5 ; Wesleyan Meth odist 4 ; Baptist 4 ; Congregational 1 ; Methodist Episcopal 1, and Bible Chris tian 1. The educational institutions comprise a grammar school, a Madras school, and a number of public and private schools. St. John has a number of religious and charitable societies, a public Ubrary, 2 St. J Lovell's Gazetteer of [391] British North America. St. J hanks and 3 branch hanks, 1 savings bankj an efficient fire brigade, fire alarm telegraph, 4 daily and several weekly newspapers, and a number of first-class hotels. The thriving suburb of Carleton, on the opposite side of the harbor, is included within the city corporation. The harbor of St. John is capacious, safe and never obstructed by ice. Its entrance, about 2 miles S. of the city, is protected by Partridge Island, on which are a quaran tine hospital and a lighthouse, the lantern 166 feet above the level of the sea. The passage "W. of the island has in it 10 feet of water, that to E. 16 feet, and abreast of the city there are from 8 to 22 fathoms ; both sides of the entrance are composed of sharp rocks, which become dry at low water. About %L of a mile N. of the lighthouse is a vertical beacon, fixed on the edge of a rocky ledge which forms the W. side of the chan nel and has a deep water close to it. On theE. side of the channel, below the town, a breakwater has been constructed to inter cept the violence of the waves, occasioned by southerly gales. The entrance of the River St. John into the harbor, about iy2 miles above the city, is through a rocky gorge, 90 yards wide and 400 yards long, oc casioning very remarkable falls. The ordi nary rise of the tide in the harbor is 21 feet; at the vernal equinox it rises 25 feet. At low water, Che waters of the river are about 12 feet higher than those of the harbor, at high water the waters of the harbor are 5 feet higher than those of the river, hence the phenomena of a fall outwards and in wards at every tide. Above the falls the tide seldom rises more than 4 feet. "When the waters of the harbor are on a level ves sels can pass the falls, and this can he effected only during a period of 15 or 20 minutes at each ebb and flow of the tide. At times of great freshets, occasioned by the sudden melting of the snow, the tides do not rise to the level of the river, and consequently it is not possible for vessels to ascend the fall. The depth of the fall is about 17 feet. Spanning the rocky gorge about 100 feet above low water, is a magnifi cent suspension bridge 640 feet in length. St. John is the entrepot of a wide extent of country, abounding in agricultural re sources, minerals, and valuable timber. Its admirable situation at the mouth of one of the largest rivers in North America, with a harbor open all the year round, with regular steam communication with all the main ports of Nova Scotia, and the northern por tion of the United States, with first-class railways running from it in every direction, with extensive maritime and manufacturing interests, ensures the certainty of its be coming a city of the greatest commercial importance. St. John has manufactories of iron cast ings, steam engines, machinery, edge tools, nails, cotton and woollen goods, boots and shoes, leather, wooden ware, soap and candles, carriages, locomotives, agricul tural implements, lumber, paper, sugar boxes,' &c. Between 600 and 900 men are yearly en gaged in the fisheries in the harbor of St. ¦ John. Salmon, shad, herrings, alewivet*, halibut, and haddock are taken in large quantities. The streets of St. John are lighted with gas, and the city is well supplied with water from a lake 4 miles in rear of the city. The railway system of New Brunswick centres at St. John, The great Intercolonial connects the city with Nova Scotia and Quebec and Ontario ; the St. John and Maine connects it with the United States ; and the Grand Southern with St. George, St. Andrews, and St. Stephen. Although settlements have been made in Acadia for many years no mention is made of St. John until 1604, when the French ex- . plorer, Champlain, pilot of an expedition commanded by M. de Monts, after coasting along the shores of Nova Scotia, crossed the Bay of Fundy, and discovered the magnifi cent river, which he named St John. At that time it was called by the Aborigines Ouangondy. No settlement was made until 1635, when a French nobleman named Charles St. Etienne, Lord of Latour, com menced the erection of a pallisade fort op posite Navy Island, in the harbor of St. John. De Latour, having been appointed Lieutenant General, lived here for a long time with a large number of retainers and soldiers, and traded in furs with the Indians, But, having fallen into disfavor with the French King, was ordered to surrender his fort and commission ; this he refused to do, and an expedition under the command of' one D'Aulnay Charnisay, was sent out in 1643 to eject him. D'Aulnay blockaded the fort, but Latour, having got assistance of men and ships from Governor Winthrop, of Boston, drove his fleet back to Port Royal (now Annapolis, N.S.), where a number of his vessels were driven ashore and destroyed. Again, in 1645, D'Aulnay attacked the fort, and Latour, being absent with a number of his men, his lady took command, and de fended it with so much skill and persever ance that the fleet was compelled to with draw. Having received reinforcements, D'Aulnay shortly afterwards returned, and again attacked the fort by land. After three days spent in several unsuccessful attacks, a Swiss sentry, who had been bribed, betrayed the garrison, and allowed the enemies to scale the wails. Madame Latour personally headed her little "band of fifty men, and heroically attacked the in vaders ; but, seeing how hopeless was suc cess, she consented to terms of peace, afforded by D'Aulnay, if she would sur render the fort. He, immediately upon getting possession, disregarded all the con ditions agreed to, hung the whole garrison, and compelled this noble woman, with a rope around her neck, to witness the execu tion ; she, a few days afterwards, died of a broken heart. In 1650, Latour returned to St. John, and received from the widow of D'Aulnay, who had died in the meantime, the possession of his old fort. In 1653 they were married, and he once more held peace able control of his former lands as well as St. J Lovell's Gazetteer of [392] British North America. St. J those of his deceased rival. In 1654, an ex pedition was sent by Oliver Cromwell from England, which captured Acadia from the French, and Latour was once more deprived of his property and possession. In 1657, Acadia was ceded to Trance by the treaty ot Breda, but no settlement of importance was made until the year 1749, when a fort was built at the mouth of the Nerepis River, about 10 miles from the city of St. John. In 1745, the French were again driven out by the English ; and in 1758, a garrison was established at St. John, under the command of Colonel Moncton. In 1764, the fi,rst Eng lish settlers came to New Brunswick, but no permanent settlement was made until 1783, when the Royalists arrived and found ed the present city of St. John. It was created a town by Royal" Charter in 1785. St. John (city and county) returns 3 mem bers to the House of Commons and 6 to the Provincial Legislature. Pop. of city in 1861, 27,317 ; in 1871, 28,805. . ST. JOHN, a maritime county of New Brunswick, bordering on the Bay of Fundy, and intersected by the River St. John, which, at its mouth, forms one of the finest harbors on the coast. It is also drained by the Kennebaccasis and other rivers. The surface is agreeably diversified with hills and valleys. The soil is fertile and agri culture has made some advances ; the chief industry of the inhabitants, however, is directed to commerce, shipbuilding, and fisheries. St. John is the most populous county in the province. Area 374,810 acres. Capital, St. John. Pop. in 1871, 52,120. ST. JOHN'S, the most eastern seaport and city of North America, capital of New foundland, near the extremity of the east ernmost of the numerous peninsulas which project from the E. portion of the island, 1665 miles W. by S. of Galway, Ireland, this being the shortest distance between any two seaports of Europe and America, 1076 miles N. E. of Montreal. Lat. 47° 33' 6" Wy Ion. 52° 3' W. The harbor is one of the very best. It is enclosed by two mountains, between the E. points of which is the entrance, called the " Narrows," only 95 fathoms wide in itB narrowest part and 100 fathoms long. This entrance is defended by several batteries and fortifications, and could be made im pregnable. It has 12 fathoms of water in mid channel, but only one vessel can pass at a time. Within there is ample space for shipping in good anchorage with perfect shelter. There are no perceptible tides. A light on Cape Spear (distant three mdes from the harbor) is visible 30 miles at sea ; there is also a harbor light. In foggy weather a 32 pounder gun is tired every half hour, and a compressed air trumpet sound ed continuously for seven seconds in every minute, enabling vessels to enter the " Nar rows " at all times, the water being deep and the shore bold. The town is situated on an acclivity, and consists chiefly of one street, about iy2 miles in length, rather irregularly built, but con taining many good shops and stores, mostly of stone. The houses in this part of the town are small and mostly of brick, but in the upper part they are of wood, and are very awkwardly disposed. St. John's, how ever, has, upon the whole, been greatly im proved since the great fire of 1846, both as regards the style of building and the width and regularity of the streets. It is lighted with gas and well supplied with water brought at an expense of $420,000 from a large lake four miles from the town. The public buildings, exclusive of the churches, are the Government House, a large plain structure erected at a cost of $240,000; House of Assembly, hospital, penitentiary, poor house and banks. There are eight places of worship, 3 Epis copal, 1 Roman CathoUc, 1 Established Church of Scotland, 1 Free Church, 1 Wes leyan, and 1 Congregational. St. John's Church is a fine cathedral, erected for the Roman Catholics at a cost of 9800,000. The Episcopal Cathedral, from designs by the late Sir Gilbert Scott is one of the' noblest ' specimens of Gothic architecture in British America. Cost about $250,000. The educational institutions of St. John's comprise, in addition to elementary schools, academies, in connection with the Church of England, the Wesleyan Church, and the Roman Catholic Church. There are several religious and benevo lent societies, a Uterary institute, a reading- room, library and museum attached ; an agricultural society, 2 foundries, 2 brewer ies, 2 tanneries, 1 block factory, 1 boot and shoe factory, 3 cabinet factories, 1 saw null, 3 biscuit factories, each using 20,000 brls. of flour annually, several oil refineries, aud a large factory occupied for making nets. A fine building has lately been erected called the Athenaium, which has cost $70,000, in which are located the reading room and library above referred to, and some of the Government departments, and which con tains besides a spacious and beautiful haU for public entertainments. The trade of St. John's consists chiefly in supplying fishermen with clothing, pro visions, and fishing and hunting gear. Dur ing the spring season the harbor is thronged with merchant vessels from almost aU parts of the world with goods and provisions re quired in the fishery. The value of imports in 1879 was $7,261,002; exports, chiefly fish and seal oil, $5,918,924. The number of vessels that arrived at St. John's in 1879 was 1007 ; cleared 894. The British Government was established at St. John's as early as 1582 by the gallant Sir Humphrey Gilbert. The French subse quently took possession, but after a series of troubles the island in 1762 again fell into the hands of the British, and has ever since remained in their possession.

Tadousac, apart from its pleasant situation as a watering-place, is interesting from the circumstance of its having been at an early ' period the capital of the French settle ments, and for a long time was one of the chief fur trading posts. Here are the ruins of a Jesuit religious establishment, which are considered a great curiosity, although nothing remains but the foundations upon which the ancient edifice rested. It is con fidently asserted that upon this spot once stood the first stone and mortar building ever erected on the continent of America—, the home of Father Marquette, who subse quently explored the waters of the Missis sippi. From the very centre of the ruins has grown up a cluster of pine trees, which must have existed at least two hundred years. The fate, and the very names of those who first pitched their tents in this wilderness, and there erected an altar to the God of their fathers, are alike unknown. Charlevoix, in 1720, thus speaks of it : "Most of our geographers have placed a town here, where there never was but one 27 French house and some huts of savages, who resorted hither annually to trade with the French when the navigation was free ; the missionaries made use of the oppor tunity, and, when the trade was over, the merchants returned to their homes, the savages to their forests, and the Gospel laborers followed the last."

On the E. and N. E. it is separated from British Columbia by the Gulf of Georgia and Queen Charlotte's Sound, and on the S. from that of the United States by the Strait of San J uan-de-Fuca ; on the N. and W. it lies open to the North Pacific. This island was dis covered by Juan de Fuca, a Greek, in 1592. Captain Cook coasted along the western shore in 1778, and supposed it to form part of the mainland. The first British settle ment was made at Nootka Sound in 1778 by some London merchants. Spain, however, bid claim to the west coast of America, south of 60°, and her cruisers -seized the British trading vessels. r^o resent this a large fleet was assembled at Spithead, but war was avoided by the concession of Spain. In 1792 the island was visited by Vancouver, a lieutenant in the British Navy, who minutely surveyed the whole coast line, and so accurately, that his charts are in use to the present day. Up to the discussion of the Oregon boundary question it attracted little attention, when, by the treaty of 1846, it was vested in Great Britain. In 1849 it was granted to the Hudson's Bay Company for the purposes of colonization, but their control ceased in 1859, when the island became a British Colony, under a complete form of Government. In 1866 the island aud the mainland were united under the name of British Columbia, and so continued until the 20th of July, 1871, at which date that large and beautiful colony became one of the provinces of the Dominion of Canada. Vancouver Island is noted for its rich coal mines, its magnificent harbors, its valuable freestone quarries, its delightful climate, and its forests of fine timber.

These mountains, the lower portion of which is shaded with a soft velvety mist, and the tops covered with snow strongly reflecting the rays of the sun, form the most promin ent feature in the landscape. To the east ward is Mount Baker, which, at a distance of nearly 100 miles, rears its snowy peak far away into the clouds. To the westward is a long wide stretch of sea, bounded on one side by the Olympian range and on the other by the rocks and mountains of Vancouver, jutting out here and there into the Strait ; •while to the northward are ranges of hills and mountains, prominent amongst which, and within 5 or 6 miles of the town, are the peaks of Mount Tolmie and Cedar Mountain. From these heights the most beautiful panoramic views of the southern end of the Island, the surrounding ocean, the Olympian range and the coast range on the mainland far away to the westward may be obtained. The country in the neighborhood of Vic toria is remarkably picturesque. Natural narks — in which there are numberB of fine old oaks, and a profusion of ferns and wild roses, little inlets, bays, and beaches, jut ting rocks, and the tine scenery of the back ground combine to render it one of the most lovely spots on the earth. This, together with its magnificent climate, which is beauti fully clear, cool and fresh during the whole summer season, and very mild in winter, must in the future render it a place of great resort.

This picturesque locality, known as Beacon Hill, borders on the Strait. Here is the public race course, and cricket ground. On the outskirts of the town are many attractive residences ; and every cot tage displays its pretty garden. Though Victoria can boast of no archi tectural pretensions, there are many neat and substantially constructed buildings, among them may be mentioned the Provin cial offices on James' Bay ; the Presbyterian, Methodist and Roman Catholic churches ; a Jewish Synagogue ; Christ Church Cathe dral ; the iron church of St. John, a dona tion to the Episcopalian congregation of the Province from the Baroness Burdett Coutts; the Angela College for young ladies, from the same excellent lady ; the St. Anne's Convent and Orphan School ; the Masonic Building ; the Mechanics' Institute, Bank of British North America, the St. Nicholas hotel, Alhambra, and Driard House, a pub lic Hospital, and a Theatre. Various public buildings are to be erected by the Dominion Government. Two daily and two weekly newspapers are published in Victoria. The city is adequately supplied with gas by an incorporated company ; and with water, by pipes laid down by another com pany, supplemented by carts — the source of supply being certain springs on a ridge near the town. There is constant telegraphic communica tions oetween Europe and Victoria, by way of New York and San Francisco.

If some slight obstructions were removed this would prove a most in valuable commercial stream for 'Winnipeg. The Northwestern Navigation Line carried up the Assiniboine in 1880 , with one steamer, the Marquette, between May lBt and the 15th October, 2,150 tons of freight. The freight down amounted to 1620 tons. Twenty trips were made, and Fort Ellice was reached up to the middle of August. The passenger travel was also very large. The Winnipeg and "Western Transportation Company have a mercantile fleet, consisting of the steamers Minnesota, Manitoba, Alpha and Cheyenne, and have done an extensive business on both the Red and Assiniboine Rivers, amounting in the aggregate to about 12,000 tons, of which 4,000 tons were on the latter stream. In addition to this the trade to and from Lake "Winnipeg by the Hudson's Bay steamer Colville, the victoria and Wm. Robinson, is to be taken into account, whose aggregate tonnage has been very large during the past year. A large amount of lumber has also been towed down in barges from the saw mills in a number of the rivers that flow into Lake "Winnipeg. The Emerson branch of the Canadian Pacific Railway did a very large trade, the volume of which is largely increasing every month. Winnipeg, besides being the poli tical and judicial metropolis of the North west, has-also become the educational centre. The Provincial Board of Education holds its sittings here, and the city is also the seat of the "University of Manitoba, to which is affiliated St. John's College, one of the oldest here ; St. Boniface College, which has recently erected a magnificent building valued, at $30,000, and Manitoba College, a younger but also a flourishing institution. These are supplemented by two very fine ladies' colleges, one St. John's Ladies' School being valued at $12,000, and St. Mary's Academy, a new and handsome structure just approaching completion on Notre Dame street, valued at $15,000. In addition to these higher seats of learning there are the public and separate schools which are well attended. The growth of church congrega tions has also been very rapid ; it is but a very fewyears ago that church accommoda tion was very limited, and the number of worshippers also very small. To-day there are several stately church edifices and others projected. The Presbyterians have Knox Church, a very fine building costing $25,000, and the Roman Catholics have St. Mary'schnrch, nowapproaching completion, valued at $30,000, besides the Cathedral in St. Boniface. The Methodist Church of Canada have two churches— Grace and Zion — the latter being a handsome edifice. The Episcopalians have also two churches in the city— Holy Trinity and Christ's Church- besides St. John Cathedral adjoining the northern suburbs. The Methodist Episco pal worship in Bethel, a neat little brick zens as well as strangers. In the interim Manitoba was constituted a Province of the Dominion confederation, with Winnipeg as the Provincial capital. This gave a metro politan character to the place, and brought the elements of political autonomy in its train; making it the headquarters of the Provincial Government, where the residence of the Lieutenant-Governor and all the public departments of the Province are located, as well as the superior courts and court house and jail. The Dominion Gov ernment, too, have made the city the head quarters for locally transacting business in Manitoba and the Northwest. The city was incorporated in November, 1873, when its population numbered only some 2.000. The assessment of real estate, which at that time was but a little over $2,000,000, has in 1880— less than six years — increased to nearly $5,000,000. During 1880, building has been done in the city to the amount of $922,325— and real estate to the amount of $1,250,000 has changed hands. The territorial extent of the city is about 2,000 acres. The revenue for 1880 was about $80,000, of which $60,000 was taxes and the balance licenses, etc. Bonds have been issued twice by the cor poration—in 1875 to the amount of $250,000 lor general improvements ; and in 1880 to the amount of $200,000 for the building of the Red River bridge. The mercantile and commercial interests of Winnipeg are as yet but in their infancy, but grant strides are being made in this direction. There are three banks in the city, all doing a good business, the Bank of Montreal Merchants, and Ontario Bank. The wholesale mer cantile trade is fast rising into importance, and an enormous business has recently been developed in the North-West. The following is a statement of the customs' returns, ending the fiscal year 1872, the first recorded, and that ending June 30th, 1880 :— 1872. 1880- Imports, Canadian goods $225,000 00 $3,599,980 00 Exports to Foreign countries 125,000 00 562,714 00 Imports, Foreign goods 926,259 00 1,227,005 00 Customs duties 46,839 90 297,768 98 The statement from the Inland Revenue Department is equally satisfactory.

WOL edifice, and the Baptists in a comfortable frame church on Bupert street. The industries of the city are as yet in their infancy, but when the drawback occasioned by the scarcity of fuel is taken into consideration, it will be admitted that the record in this direction is a creditable one for two or three years. Within the last year or two there has been material pro gress made in both the character and design of many of the public and private buildings, in fact some have gone up this year that will compare favorably with those of any other city. A good class of artisans have arrived in the city, and in the general growth of the city their handiwork has been one of the principal elements in the* success that has been attained. Three brickyards have been established during the year, which, with one previously in operation, must have manufactured 3,000,000 brick this season. There are two grist mills, one foundry and machine shop, six steam saw mills and lumber establishments, two brew- ries, two malt houses, one distillery, two cigar manufactories, a soap factory, a bis cuit factory, and also a number of carriage and blacksmithing establishments. In this connection it maybe mentioned that live or six of the leading agricultural implement manufacturers have handsome warehouses doing a rushing trade here : in fact it may be stated, without fear or contradiction, that in no other place of the Dominion is there so large a trade done in farming im plements as in Winnipeg. There are some thirty-five hotels in the city, some of which are very commodious houses, and a great improvement on what existed even three years ago. There are several daily news papers, also a job printing establishment and book bindery. There is a manufactory in which stone of a very good quality is made. There are, in addition to the above, a number of minor industries. Pop. 14,000. WINGLE, a post office in Benfrew co., Ont. WINONA, or ONTARIO, a post village in Wentworth co., Ont., on the G. W.

Its coast is rather irregular, in dented with beautiful and picturesque bays, which are a great resort for tourists iu the summer season. The shores are sufficiently high to prevent the surf from washing up on the land, and is composed of fine gravel or limestone rock, which gives the whole coast a cleanly and attractive appearance. Its greatest width is 7 miles, and length about 21 miles, and has 30,600 acres of as good land as is to be found in the province. There are many evidences of this island having been inhabited by Indians, as human bones and various relics peculiar to Indian life have been discovered in many places. Fifty years ago Wolfe Island was almost a dense and unbroken forest, inhabited by wolves and other wild beasts. But since that period the wild forest has given place to the most beautiful cultivated fields and orchards. There is a thriving village, 6 churches, 15 schools, a town hall, telegraph oflice, grist mill, 6 stores, and a shipyard. The water around the island is as clear as crystal, and teeming with all kinds of de licious fish, such as salmon, trout, whitefish, bass, pike, pickerel, and maskinonge". Pop. 3000.

In times past it, as Fort Bourbon, gave fierce battle to the " Governor and Company of Adventurers of England trading into Hudson's Bay," and incarnadined those Arctic waters in a strife that was brought to a close only by the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713, under which the French ceded the whole country aud Hud son's Bay to the English. York Factory is one of the principal trading posts of the Hudson's Bay Company. It is proposed to build a railroad from here to Prince Albert on the Saskatchewan to connect with the Canada Pacific, a distance of 400 miles. This would bring the Saskatchewan Valley as near to tide-water as Ontario is to tide-water at Quebec. York Factory is nearer Liver pool than New York, the distances being as follows : — York Factory to Liverpool via Hudson's Straits and Cape Farewell, the southern point of Greenland, 2,966 miles j New York to Liverpool via Cape Race and Tory Island, 2,987 miles ; via Cape Race and Cape Clear, 3,029 miles. For 200 years Hud son's Bay Company's sailing ships have traded between York Factory and Scotland, The Straits and Bay are clear of ice early in July, closing again at the end of September. Lignite coal is found in abundance at Davis Strait, and a coaling station for the projected steamship line could be established there.

ARCTIC OCEAN (named from the Greek word Aretos, the "Bear," the constellation of which is principally included within the celestial Arctic Circle), that portion of the Northern Sea extending from the Arctic Circle to the North Pole, The Arctic Ocean enters deeply, in the form of gulfs, bays, &c, into the N. parts of the continent of Europe, Asia and America. The chief of these indentations are the White Sea, in Europe; Sea of Kara, Gulfs of Obi and Yenisei, in Siberia; and Baffin's Bay in North America. It is united to the Pacific by Behring's Straits, and to the Atlantic by a'wide sea extending from Greenland on the W. to Norway and Lapland on the E. This portion of the Arctic ocean contains one of the largest archipelagos on the globe. The middle of it is occupied by Greenland, and on the E. is an extensive group of islands known under the name of Spitsbergen, the small island of Jan Maven. and Iceland. West of Greenland, and divided from it by Davis's Straits and Baffin's Bay, there are a number of islands of great size belonging to the Dominion of Canada. The regions embraced by the more restricted limits of the Arctic Ocean (namely, from lat. 70° N.) are, perhaps, the most dreary and desolate on the face of the globe. Their shores are covered with eternal snows, and the entire surface of their seas with large fields and huge masses of floating ice, in perpetual motion , and whose constant and tremendous collisions are a tended with the most ap palling sounds. Dense fogs, violent storms, and endless nights add to the horror of the scene. There is but one month in the year (July) in which snow does not fall. The Arctic Ocean freezes even in summer ; and, during the eight winter months, a contin uous body of ice extends in every direction from the pole, filling the area of a circle between 3000 and 4000 miles in diameter. Some of the masses of ice that line the shores of this ocean, extend many miles in length, and present sea fronts of 200 feet in height ; while fields of ice 20 or 30 miles in diameter, and from 10 to 40 feet in thickness, are frequent, and sometimes extend over 100 miles so closely packed together that no opening is left between them. They are also found to have a violent rotary motion, by which they are dashed against one another with tremendous force. The ice bergs, of which vast numbers are seen float ing about, vary from a few yards to miles in circumference, and rise to several hundreds of feet in height. The ice in these regions is very transparent, and compact, and remarkable for the variety and beauty of its tint. The water of the Arctic Ocean is extremely pure, shells being distinctly visible ata depth of 80 fathoms. The first attempt to navigate this sea was made in 1500. From 1745, England, anxious to find out a shorter passage to her East India pos sessions than round by the Cape of Good Hope, despatched successive expeditions to ' the northern coast of America, and offered a reward of £20,000 to the successful dis-, coverer of a north-west passage. At length," in 1852, Sir Robert McClure made this pas sage. Sir John Franklin attempted the pas sage in 1845-46, but neither himself or crew ever returned. In 1857-59 Sir Leopold McClintock found at King William's Island a record of his death and of his lost ex pedition. ARGYLE RIVEEj a river of Yarmouth co., N.

Towards the 36th mile sand hills predominate, rendering the land less fit for tillage. The Shecoubish River enters it 58 miles from Lake St. John, and 23 miles further it receives La Loche brook. A little above the 92nd mile it divides into two branches. One of these comes from the N.N. E., and being the larger is called by the Indians the Chief River. The other branch retains the name of the Ashuap mouchouan, 24 miles up is Lake Ashuap mouchouan. From here to its source the river is called the Nikoubau.

At its mouth it iB nearly 1% miles wide, and 25 miles up its breadth varies from % to % mile. About 100 miles upoccuT the great falls, one of the grandest spectacles in .the world. Six miles above the falls the river suddenly contracts to about 100 yards, then rushing along in a continuous foaming rapid, finally contracts to a breadth of 50 yards, ere it precipitates itself over the Tock which forms the fall ; when, etill roaring and foaming, it con tinues its maddened course for about 30 miles, pent up between walls of rock that rise sometimes to the height of 300 feet on either side. This stupendous fall exceeds in height the Falls of Niagara.

See Big Atha-( ATLANTIC OCEAN, one of the five great hydrographical divisions of the globe, oc cupies an immense longitudinal valley, and extends from the Arctic Circle on the N. to the Antarctic Circle on the S., bounded W. by the coast of America to Cape Horn, and thence by a line continued on the same meridian to the Antarctic Circle, and E. by the shores of Europe and Africa to the Cape of Good Hope, and thence prolonged to the meridian of Cape Agulhas till it meets the Antarctic Circle. Its extreme breadth is about 5000 miles, and its area is computed at 25,000,000 square miles. The North Sea or German Ocean, the Carribean Sea and the Irish Sea form portions of the Atlantic. Its principal gulf s are, in Europe, the Bay of Biscay; in Africa, the Gulf of Guinea; in America, the Gulf of Mexico and the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The chief islands are, in Europe, the British Isles and Iceland ; in Africa, the. Azores, Ma deira and Canary Islands, and the Ar chipelago of the Gulf of Guinea ; in Amer ica, the Antilles, Newfoundland, and the AVO* Lakes and Rivers in [452] British North America. BAI islands in the Gulf of St. Lawrence- The chief affluents are, in Europe, the Rhine, Loire and Tagus ; in Africa, the Senegal, Niger and Congo ; and in America, the- St. Lawrence, Mississippi, Orinoco, Amazon and La Plata. The bed of the Atlantic is very unequal in elevation, in some places rising n immense sand banks to within a few fathoms of the surface, and in others sink ing to unfathomable depths. The most extensive banks are those of Newfoundland, the Dogger bank in the German Ocean, and the Agulhas bank off the S.Vint of Africa. The minimum depth oh the banks of New foundland is 60 feet. The German Ocean varies in depth from 66 to 500 feet. In many places the Atlantic is over 15,000 feet deep, and in lat. 15° 3' S., Ion. 23° 14' W. (15° E. of the coast of Brazil) Sir James Ross had no soundings with a line of 4600 fathoms (27,600 feet, or nearly ,6% miles). In the Antarctic ocean Sir James Ross found the depth to be generally 2000 feet ; but on one occasion a line of 24,000 feet failed to reach the bottom. Fish are met with in greater abundance in the North Atlantic than in the South.

Ion., having the province of Ontario on the north a part of New York, Pennsyl vania and Ohio States on the south, and a part of Michigan on the west. Its shape is elliptical, the entire length being about 240 miles ; greatest breadth, 57 miles ; average breadth, 38 miles ; computed circumference, 658 miles. The depth of the lake is less than that of any other in the chain, the greatest yet obtained from soundings being only 220 feet. Towards the shores, and especially at the western extremity, its shallowness is a serious impediment to navigation, which is entirely suspended during the winter months, in consequence of the shoal portions being frozen. The surface of Lake Erie has an elevation of 322 feet above the level of Ontario, and 565 feet above high water mark in the St. Lawrence at Quebec. There is some reason to sup pose that it was once much higher than this. Ancient beaches have been discovered in Ohio and Michigan, having an elevation of over 100 feet above the present Burface of the water. Its principal supply is by the Detroit and St. Clair Rivers, which consti tute the outlet of the three great lakes to the N.W., viz. : Huron, Michigan and Supe rior. Numerous other streams also flow into it, the more important of which are the Maumee, Sandusky, Grand, Huron and Raisin. Its own waters are discharged by the Niagara River into Lake Ontario, and thence by the St. Lawrence to the ocean. The principal harbors on the coast are Buffalo, Cleveland, Toledo, Dunkirk, Erie, Sandusky Bay, and Monroe, all of which 'have been Improved by the United States Government. The commercial importance of Lake Erie has been greatly increased by the construction of numerous canals and railroads, connecting its ports with the in terior and the seaboard.

MICHIGAN (signifying in the Indian language " Great Water*) LAKE, one of the five great lakes of North America, con nected with the St. Lawrence River, situ ated between 41° 30' and 46° N. lat., and between, 85° 50' and 88° W. Ion. It is the largest lake that is wholly included in the United States. The principal portion lies between the State of Michigan on the E., and Illinois and Wisconsin on the W. ; but the N. E. extremity, to the extent of about 100 miles, is comprised within the State of Michigan. Its length, following the curve, is near 350 miles ; its greatest breadth about 90 miles. The surface of the lake is about 600 feet above the level of the sea; some have estimated its mean depth as high as 1,000 feet ; area estimated at 20,000 square miles. The shore of the lake is generally low, being formed of limestone, rock, clay or sand. It never has high cliffs, like those on the upper part of the Mississippi River. The lake appears to be moving westward, as the water is constantly, though slowly, receding from the Michigan shore 'and en croaching upon that of Wisconsin. On the east shore, the sand thrown up by the waves during a heavy sea, soon becomes dry and is carried inland by the action of the winds. This loose sand forms hills ranging in height from 10 to 150 feet, the forms of which are constantly changing. Lake Mi chigan is destitute of islands, except a few near its N. E. extremity. It is usually clear of ice about the middle or latter part of March ; but, as the Strait of Mackinaw re mains frozen considerably later, steamers for the east seldom reach Milwaukee before the middle of April, and they are sometimes prevented by the ice from arriving before the middle of May. Lake Michigan has but few bays on its shores, and fewer good harbors. Among the latter may be men tioned Little Traverse Bay, in the north part of the Lower Peninsula, and Grand Haven at the mouth of GrandRiver ; Green Bay, lying principally within the limits of Wisconsin, is the only considerable bay on Lake Michigan. MICHIPICOTEN, a bay on the north shore of Lake Superior. Lat. 47° 55' N., Ion. 85°30'W. MICHIPICOTEN, a considerable river of Ontario, falls into Lake Superior on the north shore, about 125 miles north of Sault Ste. Marie. This river has its source from lakes on the south side of the height of land dividing the waters of Hudson's Bay and Lake Superior. It abounds with pike, sturgeon and speckled trout. During the summer there is considerable difficulty in ascending the river, owing to the very low state of the water and the numerous rapids and cascades to be surmounted. 'The dis tance to the height of land is some 70 miles. Apart from the river navigation, the inland trip is really pleasant, owing to the nu merous chain of lakes that have to be passed. These more or less abound with trout and whitefish. Moose River, which falls into James's Bay at Moose Factory, rises in Misinabe Lake, o;i the N. side of the height of land. These two rivers con stitute the canoe route between Lake Superior and Hudson's Bayi, there being only a short portage to connect the sources of both rivers. There are very few fish in Moose River, but the lakes on its course contain whitefish and lake trout. There are 39 portages and 179 rapids on this canoe route between Lake Superior and Hudson's Bay. The Hudson's Bay Company has a trading post at the mouth of the Michipi coten River. MICKINACK, a river of Quebec, runs from the N.E., and falls into the St. Maurice about 57 miles from Three Rivers.

W. coast of the province about 3 miles from Chester village. It is about 15 miles long, and has an east branch about the same length. Both streams pass through small lakes, which are frequented by gaspereaux, sea trout, perch, and salmon. MIDDLE RIVER (or WAGAMATCOOK), of Nova Scotia, a rapid stream which emp ties itself into an arm of Bras d'Or Lake. It- runs for a distance of 13 miles iu a north erly direction, and from thence in an east erly direction towards the wilderness from which it takes its rise. Considerable gold has been discovered on this river, ana of very superior quality. In 1864 a gold dis trict was laid off by order of the Govern ment, but unfortunately it fell into the hands of speculators who have done nothing towards developing its resources. Numerous lodes of gold quartz can be seen in a num ber of small brooks which run into the main river. This river is settled for a distance of 14 miles. The lands are well adapted to raise any kind of crops. In the months of June, July and August large numbers of trout frequent this river, and in September and October it abounds with salmon of very large size. There are no lakes connected with Middle River. Its water is clear and cold ; hence the meaning of its Indian (Mic-Mac) name " Wagamat- cook " — " Clear Rapid Water." It has been called Middle River on account of its being half-way between Baddeck and Margaree riverB. It is navigable for boats 3 miles, and for canoes 10. Large beds of limestone are found on its banks ; also red and white MILFORD HAVEN, a river of Guys borough, N.S., abounding with fish of various kinds.

MINAS BAY, a remarkable body of water in Nova Scotia, the east arm of the Bay of Fundy, penetrating 60 miles inland and terminating in Chignecto Bay. The tides here rush in with great impetuosity and form what is called the bore. At the equinoxes they have been known to rise from 60 to 70 feet, while in Halifax harbor, on the opposite coast, the spring tides rise only from 6 to 9 feet. Minas Bay receives a great number of small rivers, the principal of which, called the Avon, is navigable. MINGAN, a large river of Quebec, enters the N. Bhore of the St. Lawrence 465 miles below Quebec. It is one of the finest salmon streams in the province, and excellent for trout. The scenery in rear of this stream is romantic and bold.

E. coast of New Brunswick, lat. 47° 5' N., Ion. 64° 53' W., being the eBtuary of the Miramichi River. Opposite the mouth of the bay are Fox and Passage Islands. MIRAMICHI, a river of New Brunswick, derives its name from the Mic-Mac Indians, the meaning of which iB the "Happy Retreat." It is one of the largest rivers in the province, its total length being 220 miles, and its mouth 9 miles in width, the tide flowing 40 miles from the Gulf. The lands on either side are fertile, the scenery rather tame, but charming, and the farm houses scattered along its entire length have a cheerful and comfortable appearance. Nel son, Newcastle, Douglas, and Chatham are the principal villages and towns on the river, the first occuping the junction of the north-west and south-west branches, and the others lying on both sides of Miramichi Bay. Shipbuilding is largely engaged in at these places. The river is navigable for large-sized ships 2 miles above Newcastle, where it is crossed by the bridges of the Intercolonial railway, for small schooners 20 to 25 miles further, and for canoes 40 to 50 miles above the bridge. The first ship that entered the Miramichi was the frigate which took the remains of General Wolfe from Quebec to England in 1759, a storm having driven her in for safety. The branches of the Miramichi are celebrated for their splendid salmon and trout. A fish breeding establishment, situate on Stew art's Brook, one of its tributaries, is in course of completion by the Government. The Miramichi itself abounds with salmon, sturgeon, codfish, mackerel, herring, bass, shad, alewives, trout, eels, smelts, lobsters. and oysters. The Miramichi is fed by a large number of tributaries ranging from 18 to 100 miles in length. The principal ones are Cain's, Bay du Yin. Nappan, Bartibog, Renous, Bartholemew and Black Rivers. The south-west or main branch of the Miramichi takes its source in a lake a short distance from the Tobique, a river running into the St. John, and flowing pretty equably but with considerable rapidity over a shingly and rocky bed in an easterly course it rolls into the Gulf of St. Lawrence through a large and beautiful bay, in lat. 47° 5' N., Ion. 64° 53' W. In the immediate vicinity of its source are 3 or 4 lakes ; and about 90 miles from its head it becomes con siderably expanded in consequence of the number of small rivulets flowing into it. The north-west branch joins the main river about 35 miles from its mouth. It rises in highlands bordering on the east side of the Nepisiquit, with which it is connected by a short portage leading to the Falls, and runs over a calcareous and rather rocky forma tion. It is 90 miles in length, and receives in its course several large tributaries, of which the principal are the Little River, the Tomoggonips, Portage River, Great and Little Sewogle, and the Little South West. Most of these rivers proceed from lakes, and are navigable for canoes during the Bummer months. The tide flows up the North West Miramichi 16 miles. It is navi gable for vessels of 15 feet draught for 3 miles of this distance, for schooners of 60 or MIS Lakes and Rivers in [496] British North America.

It is separated by a portage of only 370 yards from an affluent of the Saskatchewan. Foils Nelson, Rapid River, &c, are on its banks. • MISTASSA.a river of Quebec, falls into Lake St. John. It is navigable for large boats for many miles, and farther up for bark canoes. MISTASSINI, a large lake of the North West Territories, close to the height of land which divides the waters of the Saguenay from those flowing into Hudson's Bay, in lat. 61° N., Ion. 72° to 73° W. This lake forms the head waters of Rupert Eiver, flowing into James's Bay. The extent of this lake is but imperfectly known. The Indians say it takes three days to cross the narrowest part from island to island. Mr. James Richardson, of the Geological Survey, who explored a part of the lake in August, 1871, says : " Abatagoush Bay (a part of Lake Mistassini) was surveyed for 30 miles— 13 miles to the Hudson's Bay Company's post (333y2 miles N. of Montreal), and 17 miles beyond it. At this point the lake opens out both to the right and left ; and Mr. Bur gess, the officer in charge of the Hudson's Bay Company's post, told me that from this point the western shore trends north for about 6 miles, where a bay 12 miles across, called Poonichuan, stretches S. and S. W. for a distance of about 30 miles. He further informed me that across the bay the coast line continues in a north-westerly direction for 40 or 45 miles farther, and thenee north for about 60 miles. If this estimate is ap proximately correct, the length of Lake Mistassini, including the bays, would be about 150 miles, or but little less than that of Lake Ontario. I have no information regarding its breadth. Besides the 2 bays already mentioned, there is a third on the E. side called Cabistachuan, which rune to the S. and W. from a point about midway between the Hudson's Bay Company's post and the end of our measurement (290 miles from Lake St. John), and is about 20 miles deep. At the south end of this a stream of the same name, said to be of considerable size, en ters from the eastward.'* The coun try around the lake, so far as is known, is level and favorable for agriculture. Good- sized potatoes are grown at the Hudson's Bay Company's post. Mr. Walter McOuat, of the Geological Survey, who surveyed another portion of the Lake, in 1872.- says : "We measured on this lake a coast line of about 150 miles, including no bays less than a mile in width. The main body of the lake was found to be of a very elongated form, lying in a S. W. and N. E. direction, with a perceptible curve between the south-west extremity and the farthest point seen by us, the concavity of the curve being towards the south-east. A long rugged tongue of land, upwards of 20 miles in length, running from the S W. end, divides that end of the lake into two parts ; and, of these, the one onf the south-east divides into several long arms, which are out of the general direction, having a nearly north and south trend. A series of long, narrow islands, which were seen only from a distance, extends for many 1 miles in the same direction beyond the MOI Lakes and Rivers in [497J British North America. MON above mentioned point, being, like it, ap parently parallel with the longer axis of the lake. We carried our measurements round the long point, to the bottom of the bay on the north-west side of it, called Poonichuan Bay, and thence along the main north-west shore of the lake for about 70 miles from the extreme S. W. point. As no land was visible from this position, looking in a north-easterly direction from a point about 40 feet above the level of the water, the whole length of the lake cannot be much, if any, le^s than a hundred miles. It ap pears, however, to be comparatively narrow, being probably not more than 15 miles wide, unless the width increases beyond where we saw it." Another and more recent explorer states that from its size, its beauty ,its storms, the abundance of game along its shores, the multitudinous fishes of different species inhabiting its deep, clear waters, and its legends, it is held in peculiar love, in awe, and in reverence by the nomadic Indians of these parts. The same characteristics ought to make it a favorite place of resort for sportsmen of the civilized type. But it seems that the Lake Mistassini region has better claims to consideration than those it derives from its advantages as a country for game. He further says : The area of this fake equals that of Lake Ontario, while its shores in mineral wealth are not surpassed by those of Lake Superior. This valuable district, from its geographical position, rightly belongs to the Province of Quebec. And would the talented and enterprising gentlemen at the head of the Lake St. John Colonization project but deign to use their influence in obtaining from our patriotic Government sufficient means to make a survey of the Lake and its shores, they would confer a lasting benefit on the Pro vince they love so well, and for which they are praise worthily doing so much. The climate of the Mistassini country is a mar- velously fine one, highly conducive to lon gevity and juvenescence. Summer there, though short, is extremely hot, the winter somewhat long, but clear and cold, the pre vailing wind is the N.W., which brings in its train bright weather for all seasons. In striking contrast to this is the east wind, which in summer is invariably accompanied by rain, and in winter by snow. Life in this region is a most enjoyable one. Nowhere else are Indians so free from vice and crime. MISTASSINI (" The Large Rock"), ariver of Quebec, is formed by the junction of two rivers, the Washieamiscou and the Kakis- sagan, and runs into the N. W- side of Lake St. John, about 3 miles from the Biver Ashuapmouchouan. It is about 3 miles wide at its mouth, including a group of islets, but is extremely shallow. It is also called the Riviere de Sable or Sand River, on account of its sandy banks and the sand shoals at its mouth, which extend consider ably into the lake. This river is supposed to be the ancient route leading to Lake Mis tassini. MOER RIVER, a river of Sherbrooke co., QUe. MOIRA, a river of Ontario, empties into 32 the Bay of Quinte at the flourishing town of Belleville, after a rapid course of about 30 miles.

They are higher than those of Niagara, being more than 250 feet , but they are very narrow— being only about fifty feet wide. These falls are a great attraction to tourists and visitors to the ancient capital. The drive to them is very beautiful ; the scenery on the road through Beauport, where the Provincial Lunatic Asylum is built, and back again being full of interest. About 2 miles above the falls is a curious formation on the river bank called 'Vthe Natural Steps," being a series of layers of the limestone rock, each about a foot in thickness, and for about half a mile receding one above the other to the height of nearly 20 feet, as regularly as if formed by the hand of man. They are great objects of wonder and curiosity. There are several stores and hotels near the falls, and at their base several large saw mills and factories, employing from 600 to 800 hands. / .

It is celebrated for its fine large salmon, and runs with great rapidity. Apart from the gloom and gran deur of the mountain scenery at its source, and from its many lovely tributaries, it can boast of falls and rapids which are ex tremely interesting. From these rapids it derives the name of Nepisiquit, or Foamy River. Twenty milesfrom Bathurst are the Great Falls, which it would seem Nature had deemed so beautiful that she encased them in flint and granite. For miles above and below the cataract the river is very much contracted, and the banks rocky and perpendicular. The total height of these falls is 140 feet, the leap consisting of four. At the foot of each are deep basins, and below them, for about a mile, a number of pools and rapids, whose gloomy but fascinat ing features are greatly enhanced by the prevailing roar and by the blending together in some places of the black water with the white foam. About 7 miles above Bathurst are the Papineau, or Cranberry Falls, which consist of a series of chutes and small falls. The salmon ascend no higher than the Great Falls. It is visited by a large number of tourists every summer. NEQUAQUON, a lake at the mouth of the Sturgeon River, W. of Lake Superior. It is a magnificent expanse of water, navigable for 17 miles.

Long Harbor River, the water of Gribornes Lake and Big River running into Fortune Bay. Little River Conn and Bay Despair River running into Bay Despair. Serpentine Lake or Long Pond running into Bay de East. The Bay de NorthjFacheux, Bay de Lievre, Little River, and White Bear Bay rivers flowing into bays of their respec tive names, also Grandys Brook, Ponnoire and La Poile rivers, with some other to the westward. These rivers are all rapid with rocky or stony beds ; on some are high falls within a short distance of the coast ; and most of them frequently widen out into ponds or lakes between their sources and discharge.

NEW PRAGUE RIVER, a small stream in Kings co-, P.E.I. , noted for salmon. NIAGARA, a river of North America. forming the outlet of Lake Erie and a part of the boundary between Canada and the United States. It commences at Black Rock, 2 miles N. of Buffalo, and flowing northward- enters Lake Ontario after a course of about 34 miles. About 3 miles below its southern extremity it divides into two arms, which embrace an island, called Grand Island, 12 miles long, and from 2 to 7 miles wide. Two or three miles below Grand Island the entire waters of the Niagara are precipi tated over a perpendicular ledge of rocks about 160 feet in height, forming the Ni agara Falls, the most stupendous cataract on the globe. The rapids above the falls have a descent of 57 feet in about half a mile. The river is navigable 7 miles to Lewiston, and above the falls for small boats from the old Fort Schlosser to Lake Erie, near 20 miles. Two miles below the cataract the river is spanned by a magnifi cent suspension bridge, 800 feet in length. NIAGARA, FALLS OF, a mighty cat aract situated partly in Canada and partly in the United States, on the Niagara, a river 34 miles in length, running from Lake Erie to Ontario, and here pouring the waters of the Great Lakes over a perpendicular pre cipice, 165 feet in height. The falls are about 20 miles below the entrance to the river, at. the N. E. extremity of Lake Erie, and 14 miles from its junction with Lake Ontario. About 3 miles below its com mencement, the river divides into two arms, which embrace an island, called Grand Island, 12 miles lone, arid from 2 to 7 miles wide. The banks of the upper portion of Niagara River are low, not usually exceed ing 20 or 30 feet, and the \urrent is comparatively moderate. Nearly 3 miles below Grand Island the rapids (scarcely lesB interesting than the falls themselves) commence, and after a course of rather more than half a mile terminate in the great cataract. Goat Island, a quarter NIN Lakes and Rivers in [501] British North America. NIP of a mile wide and half a mile long, from N. to S., extends to the very brow of the precipice aud divides the falls into two por tions, the higher of which is on the Ameri can side, but the greater body of water on the Canadian. Below the falls the river runs between perpendicular cliffs for 3 or 4 miles in a chaimel of from 300 to 800 feet wide, with great force and impetuosity, till it is released from its narrow and rocky bed, below the Queenston Heights, from whence it flows tranquilly into Lake Ontario. Be tween the falls and Queenston (where navigation commences) occur two rapids, caused partly by the narrowing'of the bed of the river, and partly by the rocks at the bottom. At the head of the first rapids, two miles below the falls, the river is spanned by a suspension bridge, 800 feet in length and 230 feet above the water. At the southern extremity of the first rapids an angle in the river causes a reflex in the cur rent, which forms a number of eddies, com monly called "The whirpool," more re markable for the heaping up of the waters in the middle of the river, by the impetus of the current, than for any peculiar vio lence of the whirlpools themselves. Below this pool is another rapid of about half a mile in extent. NICK LAKE, a lake of Brome co., Que., noted for salmon trout. NICOLET, a beautiful lake in the co. of Wolfe, Que., about 2y2 miles long and 1 mile broad. It contains several islands, abounds with fine trout, and is surrounded by very attractive scenery.

NICTAUX, a river of Annapolis co.,N.S., falls into the S. bank of the Annapolis River, near Middleton Station. Silver and iron ore is found in the vicinity of this river. There are ten lakes on the Nictaux, which abound with trout, affording fine sport for the angler. The lower part of the river abounds with salmon, bass and shad. NIGER RIVER, a rapid stream running in a S.W. direction in Stanstead CO., Que. NIKOUBAU, a river of Quebec, forms the first part of the River Ashuapmouchuan. Its upward course is generally north-west erly to the height of land which divides the waters of the Saguenay from those flowing to Hudson's Bay. It passes through several lakes. At the head of the fourth it divides into two branches, one comes from the N. E. and the other, in its upward course, con tinues north-westerly , and passes a Bort of double lake, called Narrow'iBridge Lake, -where the highest lake, called Whitefish Lake, is reached by a portage of about lmile. This is close to the watershed, which is also the boundary line between the Province of Quebec and the North West Territories, and is 170 miles from St. John, 269 miles N. of Montreal. At Lake Ni koubau the spruce, tamarac, balsam, fir, &c, attain a good size. MINE MILE RIVER, a good salmon and trout stream in Halifax co., N.S., enters the Atlantic through Shad Bay, W. of Halifax, after a course of about 40 miles. NINE MILE RIVER, a river of Bruce co., Ont., on which is the village of Luck now. NIPIGON, or NEPIGON, a large lake of Ontario, 30 miles N. W. of Lake Superior. Its general outline is elliptical, the longest diameter, a little west of north, being sev enty miles, and the shortest 50 miles. The shore on the southern side is deeply in dented by large bays ; and on the northern, Ombabika Bay is nearly 20 miles long with an entrance only a mile wide. These in dentations increase very much the coast line, which measures 580 miles. Lake Nipi- ?on is very thickly studded with islands. t is estimated that there are more than 1000. Some 500 or 600 have already been ex amined, varying in size from 8 miles in di ameter down to a few chains in length. The streams flowing into the lake are numerous. The 18 largest are : Kayoshk or Gull River, Ka-me-wa-min-i-kan or Sturgeon River, (sometimes also called the Poplar Lodge River, from the name of the Hudson Bay Company's post at its mouth,) O-na-ma-ni- sagi or Red Paint River, Pick-i-ti-gonch-ing or Muddy River, Ka-bi-to-ti-quia or the river which runs parallel to the shore, Omba-bi-ka or Rising Rocks River, Wa-ba- nosh or Dawning Day River, Ka-ma-ka-te- wa-ga-mig or Black River, Posh-ko-ka-gan River, Ka-wa-ba-ton-gwa or White Sand River, Ka-ba-sash-kan-da<-gi-sino River, Pa-git-chig-a-mo or Look-out River, Sandy River, Katch-an-ga-ti-na-wi or High Hill River, Ka-ne-sha, and Ka-nee-sha-sing River. The aspect of the country around Lake Nipigon, and of the islands within it, is undulating, and sometimes hilly, but level tracts of considerable extent occur in some places. The largesttract of goodland appears to be on the south-western side of the lake. For 50 miles from the Nonwatan River northwards the country is mostly levei and the soil fertile. The Indians represent this tract as continuing nearly to the Winnipeg River, becoming more level as it recedes westward. Around South and Mclntyre, the two largest bays of the south, there is a considerable area of good land. Along the Kabitotaquia on the west, on both Bides of the river, the country is level and the soil sandy, supporting a growth of grass and bushes, the timber having been burnt off by repeated fires. The land is free from stones and almost ready for the plough. To the north-west ward the country is low and alevel tract ex tends north to an unknown distance. To the north-east along Ombabida Bay, as far as the eye can reach, the country is level and the soil is good. The climate at Lake Nipigon appears to be as well suited for agriculture as the greater part of the Pro vince of Quebec. The timber is principally white spruce, white birch, aspen, poplar, balsam, fir, tamarac, and white cedar, with occasional trees of black ash, grey elm and white pine. Lake Nipigon is 813 feet higher than Lake Superior. The Indiana NOI Lakes and Rivers in [502] British North America. NOR say it has fallen 3 feet in the last 35 years. The shores on the south and west are bolder and the water deeper than on the. north and east. The depth of water is very great. In some parts a line of 540 feet has failed to touch bottom.

Eighteen miles below Ottawa is the RivieTe du Lievre, draining an area of 4100 square miles ; be low this river there are numerous tribu taries varying from 90 to 160 miles in length. The rapids below Ottawa are avoided by a succession of canals. The valley drained by the Ottawa is 80,000 square miles in area, for the most part covered with valuable woods, particularly red and white pine ; it is abundantly intersected with large rivers, and contains a very considerable area of the best soil. The country is generally beautiful and undulating behind what has OUR Lakes and Rivers in [505] British North America. PAC been called the red pine regions, and sus tains a growth of maple, beech, birch and elm. No region of equal extent enjoys so much excellent watei-power, with such am ple supplies of timber and minerals to work up or apply to any kind of manufacture to which water-power is available.

PACIFIC OCEAN, or the GREAT SOUTH SEA, by far the largest of the great divisions of water on the surface of the globe, extends from the Arctic to the Antartic circle, over 133° of lat. ; and from the W. coast of Amer ica to Australia, Papua, Flores, Sumbawa, Java, Sumatra, and the E. coast of Asia, or through nearly 160 degrees of longitude. Area, estimated at 70,000,000 square miles, exceeding that of all the dry land on the globe. In its widest part, at the equator, it is 10,000 miles across ; towards the circles its breadth is diminished, especially in the N., where it communicates with the Arctic Ocean by Behring Strait. It is usually divided by geographers into the North and South Pacific, separated from each other by the equator . The most distinguishing feat ures of the Pacific are the countless number of comparatively small islands spread over its surface, more especially of its equatorial region, and the immense chain of volcanoes which stretch about continuously along its shores, forming one vast volcanic circle. In the south, it is separated from the Antartic Circle only by an arbitrary line ; but in other directions both itB boundaries and its communications with other oceans are well defined. Its coast line on the American side, though generally bold, is very little broken by inlets. On the Asiatic side it is very irregular. The depth of the Pacific has not been ascertained, though there seems no reason to doubt it descends much further below than the loftiest mountain heights ascend above its surface. This ocean was first seen by Europeans in 1513. Vasco Nunez de Balboa, the Spanish Gov ernor of Darien, proceeding on native infor mation, set out on an exploring expedition across the isthmus, and, having ascended a hill, saw a boundless ocean spread out before him. As his view extended chiefly to the S., he gave it the name of the Mar del Zur, or South Sea. It received its present name PAS Lakes and Rivers in [506] British North America. PEN from the celebrated navigator, Fernando de Magellan, who sailed across it in 1521. In the eighteenth century its different parts were explored by Behring, Anson , Byron, Bougainville, Cook, Vancouver, Broughton, La Perouse, &c, and in the present century by D'Entrecasteaux, Krusenstern, Beechey, Fitzroy, D'Urville, Wilkes and Sir James PAINT RIVER, of Quebec.

W. boundary of Maine, when it turns ahd runs E., and unites with the Wollastook River to form the St. John. It constitutes the N. boundary of Maine for -most of its length. ST. GEORGE, a bay and harbor of New foundland, on the W. coast. The bay ex tends inward E. N. E. about 54 miles, and receives the River St. George, which falls into the head of the harbor of the same name in which the bay terminates on the E. Several other streams fall into this bay. ST.

The coast between the mouth of the St. John and the Bay of Seven Islands contains an abundance of black magnetic oxide of iron. ST. JOHN, a river of Quebec, joins the St. Lawrence with the L'Assomption River, N. of the Island of Montreal, after a course of about 20 miles. ST. JOHN, (called by the Indians Pequa- gomi, which means Flat Lake,) a lake of Quebec, between the parallels of 48° 27' and 48° 51' N. latitude, and the meridians of 71° 35' and 72° 10' W. longitude, about 120 miles north of Quebec Its general shape is cir cular, and its circumference about 100 miles. It lies in an immense valley, and is the reservoir into which numerous large rivers and streams empty themselves, many of which rise in the highlands that separate the North West Territories from Quebec. The principal of these rivers are the Mis- taBSini, Peribonea, and Kocuatien on the N., the Ashuapmouchouan and Ouiatchoua. nish on the W., the Ouiatchouan on the S. W~ and the Metabetshuan, Kushpahi- ganish and Belle Riviere on the S. By means of some of these rivers, and their lakes and tributaries, communication from Lake St. John may be had through the Batiscan or St. Maurice with the St. Law rence, and through the Gatineau with the Ottawa. This great lake has its outlet into the Saguenay T>y the Grande and Petite Decharge, which lie on its E. side. Its shores abound with inexhaustible quarries of limestone and extensive beds of line marl. The lake contains a number of beau tiful islands, and abounds with a variety of fish, including the celebrated "win- nouiche." ST. JOHN RiyER, (Indian name Loosh- took, signifying" "the Long River,") the principal river of New Brunswick, rises under the name of the South West Branch, at the Metgermette Portage, in the high lands which separate Maine from Canada, near the sources of the Connecticut. It flows due N. E. to the junction of the St. Francis, (lat. 47° 10' N. Ion. 68° 54' W.,) a distance of about 150 miles, of which course about 100 miles, commencing at the influx of the North West Branch, is known as the Wal- * las took Kiver. Below the entrance of the St. Francis, the St. John flows in an irregular E. S. E. course to the Grand Falls, (lat. 47° 5' N., Ion. 67° 45' W.,) where the river has a perpendicular descent of 70 or 80 feet, abounding in picturesque scenery ; thence its direction isnearly S., to about lat. 46° N., where it bends suddenly E., and flows in this general direction for about 100 miles to the entrance of the outlet to Grand Lake, below which the river flows in a broad channel due S. S. W. Its entire length is estimated at 450 miles. To the GrandFallB, 225 miles from the sea, its course is wholly within the Province of New Brunswick. From a point about 3 miles above the falls, where the E. boundary of Maine intersects the St. John, to the entrance of the St. Francis, a distance of 75 miles, the boun dary between Maine and New Brunswick is found in the middle channel or deepeBt water of the river. From the mouth of the St. Francis to about lat. 46° 25' N., Ion. 70° 4' W., a distance of 112 miles, the river has its course wholly in Maine ; but from the point last mentioned to the Monument at the source of the river on the Metgermette Portage, a distance of about 38 miles, the right bank only is in the Province of Quebec, The principal affluents of the St. John are the Oromocto, Aroostook, and Alagash, f rom the W., and the Kennebaccasis, Washade moak, Salmon, Naskwaak, Tobique, Mada waska and St. Francis, from the E. Vessels of 120 tons ascend the St. John to Frederic- St. L Lakes and Rivers in [517] British North America. St. M ton, 80 miles from the Bay of Fundy ; Bmall steamers ply to Woodstock, 75 miles farther up, and occasionally make trips to the Grand Falls. Above the Grand Falls, the St. John has been navigated by a Bteamer 40 miles to the mouth of the River Mada waska, and from this point boats and canoes ascend almost to its sources. It is estimated that the St. John and its tributaries afford 1300 miles of navigable waters. The area drained is computed at 17,000,000 acres, of which 9.000,000 are in New Brunswick, 2,000,000 in Quebec, and 6,000,000 in Maine. A great portion of this is occupied by dense forests of pine, hackmatack, and other tim ber, of which vast quantities are annually rafted down the river. The valley of the St. John is remarkable for its fertility and picturesque beauty. ST. JOHN'S, a river of the co. of Sague nay, Que., falls into the N. shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Schooners of 80 and 90 tons can enter its mouth, but it is not navigable any distance up. It is a line salmon and trout stream. ST. JOHN'S BAY, on the W. coast of Newfoundland, receives the River Castor. ST. JOHN'S, a river of the co. of Gaspe, Que., empties into Gasp6 Bay at a place known as the Barachois or Tickle of Doug lastown, after a course of about 70 miles. Boats can go up it a short distance, canoes can ascend to its source. It furnishes splendid salmon and sea-trout angling. ST. JOHN'S RIVER, a picturesque river of Ontario, in the district of Muskoka, noted for its beautiful cascades. ST. JOSEPH, a lake of the North West Territories, in lat. 51° 10' N., Ion. 90° 30' to 91°30'W. Length 35 miles; average breadth 10 miles . It receives the Catlake River, and discharges by the Albany River into James's Bay. ST. LAMBERT RIVER, in Laprairie CO., Que., runs into the S. shore of the St. Law rence nearly opposite Montreal. ST. LAWRENCE, one of the largest rivers ta North America, issues from Lake On tario in about 44° 10' N. lat., and 76° 30' W. Ion., and flowing in a N. E. direction, form ing, in a part of its course, the boundary between New York and Ontario and Quebec, falls into the Gulf of St. Lawrence by a broad estuary, in about 49° 30' N. lat., and 64° W. Ion. Viewing this river in connec tion with the great western lakes, of which it forms the outlet, it may be said to rise at the sources of the St. Louis, which flows into Lake Superior. It has received differ ent names in different parts of its course ; between Lakes Superior and Huron it is called the St. Mary ; between Lakes Huron and Erie, the St. Clair and Detroit ; between Lake Ontario, trie Niagara ; between Lake Ontario and the sea, it takes the name of St. Lawrence. Its whole length, includ ing the chain of lakes, is estimated at 2200 miles. The distance from Lake Ontario to the Gulf of St. Lawrence is about 750 miles. It is navigable for ships of the line to Que bec, and for vessels of 4000 tons to Montreal. Between Montreal and Lake Ontario, the navigation is much impeded by rapids, the most important of which are the Cedar and Lachine Rapids, the latter 9 miles above Montreal. The total elevation between tide water and Lake Ontario is about 230 feet. This is overcome by 8 canals, varying from % of a mile to 11% miles in length (but in the aggregate only 41 miles of canal), having locks 200 feet long between the gates and 45 feet wide, with an excavated trunk from 100 to 140 feet wide on the surface, and a depth of 10 feet of water. The St. Law rence canals were deepened for paddle steamers, but from the magnitude of the rapids and their regular inclination the aid of the locks iB not required in descending the river. The passage from the head of the lake to Montreal is made by a freighted steamer in 48 hours ; the upward trip re quires about 60 hours. From Lake Ontario to Lake Erie an elevation of 330 feet is over come by a canal 28 miles in length, with 27 cut-stone locks, 130 feet long by 26% feet wide. These locks will pass a craft of 500 tons burthen, while those of the St. Law rence have double this capacity. The en largement of the former is, however, now being undertaken, so as to meet the wants of the great shipping trade of the West. The total cost of the canals connected with the navigation is estimated at $12,000,000; the enlargement of the Welland will add several millions more to this sum. By means of the Richelieu River and Chambly Canal, large vessels pass from the St. Lawrence to Lake Champlain, which communicates through the Champlain Canal with the navigable waters of the Hudson. The princi pal affluents of the St. Lawrence are the Ottawa, 800 miles long, forming the boundary between Ontario and Quebec, and the St. Maurice, Batiscan, and Saguenay, from 200 to 400 miles. The breadth of the St. Lawrence is very unequal, varying from less than a mile to three or four miles. Across its mouth, from Cap Chatte to Pointe de Monts, the distance is about 40 miles. This stream contains many islands ; in an expansion of the river near its egress from Lake Ontario there is a multitudinous group called the " Thousand Islands," presenting to the traveller an endless variety of charm ing scenery. This portion of the river is sometimes called the "Lake of the Thou sand Islands " (Lac des Milles Isles). The great Victoria Bridge, erected by the Grand Trunk at a cost of about 87,000,000, spans the river at Montreal. The St. Lawrence, with its tributaries, drains an area estimated at 335,515 square miles, of which 90.000 are covered with the waters of the five great ST. LEWIS or LOUIS, a river of Ontario, the remotest spring of the mighty St. Law rence, takes its source in lat. 48° 30'N., Ion. 93° W. ST.

MARGUERITE, a river of Quebec, rises in a chain of mountains in the co. of Saguenay and enters the Saguenay1 River on the N. side, 18 miles above Tadousac. it is one of the chief tributaries of the Sague nay. Its course is very rapid and lies deep ly bedded in abrupt mountains. This river is particularly famous for its salmon , which are very abundant and of a large size. Salmon go up it 60 miles, but then meet steep falls which prevent their further ascent. STE. MARGUERITE, a small stream running into the St. Lawrence, in Nicolet co., Que- STE. MARIE, a small stream in Beauce co- Que., runs S. W. into the Chaudiere. STE. MARIE, a small stream ta Terre bonne co., Que. ' ST. MARY, a river of Nova Scotia, rises in College Lake, within a short distance of the Antigonishe River, and crossing nearly the whole county of Guysborough from N. to S. falls into the Atlantic, about 90 miles E, of Halifax, forming the harbor of St. Mary, where it becomes navigable for the largest vessels for about 10 miles. It has a number of branches flowing through a well wooded and rich mineral country. ST. MARY'S BAY, an inlet of the Atlan tic, on the shore of Digby CO., N.S. ST. MARY'S, a small lake on the Gati neau River, 40 miles above its mouth. ST. MARY'S RIVER, a river running into Sault Ste. Marie and navigable for steamboats. ST. MARY'S STRAIT, or SAULT STE. MARIE, separates Ontario from the upper peninsula of Michigan, and connects Lake Superior with Lake Huron. It commences at the S. E. extremity of the former lake, and, after a general S. E. course of 63 miles enters Lake Huron by three channels. At some places it spreads out into lakes ; at others rushes through narrow rapids, or winds around beautiful islands. Its entire length is navigable by vessels drawing 8 feet of water up to within 1 mile of Lake Superior. At this point the natural limit of steamboat navigation is arrested by the " Sault," having a descent of 22 feet within less than a mile. To overcome this impedi ment and give uninterrupted water com munication between the great lakes a canal was cut in 1855. It is about a mile long, with 2 massive stone locks, each 250 feet long. The canal is 70 feet wide at the top and 61 feet at the bottom. The depth of water is 12 feet. The main body of the canal is excavated through rock. ST. MAURICE, a river of Quebec, one of the largest tributaries of the St. Lawrence, takes its rise in two small springs, one be ing in a savanne and the other a% mile from it, at the foot of a small hill forming part of the height of land between the Province of Quebec and North West Terri tories, over 400 miles N. W. of Three Riv ers, at which place it falls into the St. Law rence. Its principal tributaries are the Shawenagan, Matawan, Rat, Vermillion, Flammand, Ribbon, and Manouan from the W-, and Mekinak, Petite and Grande Bos- tonnais, Croche.Grande Pierriche, Tranche, and Windigo from the E. It expands into numerous lakes, some of large size. Its banks are generally high, in some places from 200 to 1000 feet, and covered with groups of majestic trees. It is adorned with a number of beautiful islands, and has a great variety of falls and cascades. The Falls of Grand Mere and the Shawene- gan Falls are particularly attractive to the tourist. The latter are about 30 miles from the city of Three Rivers. The most re markable place on the St. Maurice is the Hudson Bay Company's post of La Tuque, about 100 miles from Three Rivers. Lat. 47° 18' 30" N., Ion. 73° W. It is separated from the falls by a conical hill principally composed of granite rock, containing quartz, mica and feldspar.

Winding amongst the mountain spurs near its source it follows a N. E. direction to Pointe aux Pius, thence it runs N. N. E to the foot of Big Horn Hill, whence, having received fiie streamlet of that name, it hastens east ward to Mountain House. From this point to Fort Edmonton its general direction is N.E.; it continues in the same direction till it crosses the 54th parallel of latitude, along which it runs and theu turns southward towards, Fort Pitt, and thus, between the latter and Fort Edmonton, describes a large and almost regular curve. From Fort Pitt the river continues its S. E- course to the Eibow, whence it turns suddenly towards the N. E-, first reaching Carlton House and thence Cumberland House. From the latter point its general course is S. E-, al though its great winding sometimes carries it towards the N-, and sometimes towards the S. This great river divides into many branches that flow capriciously through the vast plain which they cut in various, and frequently quite opposite, directions.
