** We may by good fortune, obtain a glimpse of a great poet, and hear the
sound of his voice ; or put a c|uestion to a man of science, and be answered good-
humoredly. We may intrude ten minutes' talk on a cabinet minister, or snatch,
once or twice in our lives, the privilege of throwing a bouquet on the path of a
Princess, or arresting the kind glance of a (^ueen. And meantime there is a society
continually open to us, of people who will talk to us as long as we like ; talk to us
in the best words they caH choose : and this society, because it is so numerous and
so gentle, and can be kept waiting round us all day long, not to grant audience, but
to gain it. Kings and Statesmen lingering patiently in those plainly furnished and
narrow anterooms our bookcase shelves, we make no account of that company,
perhaps never listen to a word they would say all day long." — Kitskiu.

THE ISLAND OF MONTREAL.
The following very interesting legend and prophecy was at
one time very common amongst the Mowhawk Indian8,Jthough now
barely remembered : —
Long, long ago there was a great lake where the Island of
Montreal now stands, and the Mohawks dwelt upon its borders and
were happy. Then bad people came and drove the Indians into
the water, killing many of them ; and the great spirit, when ho saw
the Mohawks so badly treated, raised up a country for them out of
the lake and stocked it with game and fruits and maize, and gave it
to the Mohawks ; but there was no mountain. Then the bad people
came over to the Island and took possession of it, and drove the
Mohawks away to the Isle of Jesus, which they made their hunting
ground. Then when they stood on the shore one evening they saw
a great fire leap up on the island, and there were dreadful peals of
thunder, and terrible flashes of lightuing, and all the bad people
Avere killed ; and after a while, when the smoke had cleared away,
the Mohawks saw the Mountain, and they went back and took
possession of the island ; where they lived happily until attacked by
the Algonquins and Wyandots. Then the white man came and
drove all the Indians away. This is the Legend. There is also a
prophecy that one day the Mohawks shall see the fire break out in
1 he mountain again, and that the whole Island of Montreal will
sink, and the great lake again spread over the spot where the
island now stands. The legend and the prophecy are pretty, and
geological research may show pomo foundation for the upheaval.

MONTREAL PAST AND PRESENT.
The City of Montreal, the commercial metropolis of the Dominion
ot Canada, is built on an island of the same name, formed by the
River Ottawa debouching into the Rivt-r St. Lawrence, at its western
and eastern extremities, the former near St. Ann's, the latter at
Bout de ITsle. The island is of a triangular shajjc, and is about 30
miles long and 10 broad, situated in Latitude 45° 31' North, and
Longitude 7cS° 35^ West and 250 miles above salt water.
Montreal was founded on the 8th of ^L^,y, 1642, by ^Llisonneuve,
107 years after the visit of Jacques Cartier and his crew in 1535.
Jacques Cartier was the first Euroi)ean who visited the locality. On
the arrival of Jacques Cartier there was an Lidian village calied
Hochelaga on the site of the Montreal of today. The village was
situated where the English Cathedral at the corner of University and
St. Catherine Streets now stands. What is now known as Hochelaga
was for many years a French town, two miles east of Montrerl, but
is now joined to the City of Montreal.
The first clearing for the city was made where tlie custom house
now stands. The city proper is about 414 miles long by 2 broad,
and over 200 miles of streets and lanes. Montreal is 315 miles near-
er to Liverpool than the city of New York, and one-third of the whole
distance, by way of the St. Lawrence, is in comparatively smooth
water. The distance from Montreal to Chicago by the St. Lawrence
system is 185 miles less than the distance from New \'ork to the
same city. Montreal is 334 miles from Boston, 400 miles from New
York, 845 miles from Chicago, and 2,750 miles from Liverpool.
British troops were stationed at Montreal till 1870. The Barracks
were situated where the C.P.R. Dalhousie Station now stands. The
Military cemetery and powder magazine and store-rooms were on
St. Helen's Island.
12
MONTREAL PAST AND PRESENT.
Montreal surrendered to the British forces under Generals Murray
and Amherst on the 8th Sept., 1760, a year after the capture of Que-
bec. It was taken by the Americans on the 12th of November, 1775,
and retaken by the British on the 15th of June, 1776. The English-
speaking portion of the population were so disgusted with the Rebel-
lion Losses Bill passed by the Liberals in 1847, that, when the Gov-
crnor-(reneral. Lord Elgin, entered the Parliament House (erected
where the St. Ann's Market now stands) on the 25th of April to give
his assent to the measure, they gathered together from all quarters of
♦ne city and entering the Parliament House they drove out the mem-
bers and set fire to the building. That was the last parliament held
in Montreal. One of the strangest features of this unfortunate affair
is that some of the rankest Tories of that timehave joined themselves
with the Liberals under Mr. Mercier since that time — Mr. Alfred
Perry is one.
The population of ]N[ontreal proper (Government census of 1891)
was 216,650 or 245,971 including St. Henry, St. Cunegonde, Cote St.
Antoine and Mile End. This is over 25 per cent increase during the
last decade. Over one-half of the population are of French, one-
fifth of L'ish, one-seventh of P'.nglish and one-seventeenth of Scotch
origin, (bui the one-seventeenth of Scotch origin have as large a share
in the enterprise and business of Montreal as any of the other nation-
alities which form one-half, one-fifth, or one-seventh of the population)
iind as to religion, about two-thirds are Roman Catholics. 'I'he gen-
eral good feeling existing between parties of differeni shades of opinion
renders Montreal less subject to party disturbances than other cities
of the same population. This rule, of course, like every other rule,
had one or two exceptions : but the following two instances show that
the above rule has been very well followed. In the old limes, just
after the Conquest, the Protestants used one of the Roman churches
after the morning mass. Lor 20 years after 1766, the Church of Eng-
land people occupied the Church of the Recollets every Sunday after-
noon. The Presbyterians used the same church before 1792, and
when the congregation moved to their first church in St. (rabriel
Street, they presented to the priests of the Recollet Church a gift of
vandles for the high altar, and of wine for the mass, as a token of
good-will, and thanks for the gratuitous use of the church.
The ])onsecours Church was very nigh being swept away, a few
years ago. to make room for a railway station, but some Protestants,
actuated by a love of the picturesque, and out of regard for the mem-
ory of tlie good Sister by whom it was founded, made such a noise
about it that the bishop interfered to prevent the sale.

Louis Joseph Papineau who, with Wm, Lyon Mackenzie, took the
lead in the troubles of 1837-8, had his head-quarters in Montreal.
On the 9th of June, 1853, Father Gavazzi, a celebrated lecturer^
formerly a famous Roman Catholic priest, lectured against the Church
of Rome in Zion Congregational Church (nov the Herald Building),
and a riot ensued, in which about 40 persons were either killed or
wounded.
One of the most unfortunate events in the history of Montreal was
the murder of Thomas Hacket, an Orangeman, on the 12th of July»
1877, by a gang of Fenians, on Victoria Square, near the Queen's
monument. Several of the bullet shot marks may yet be seen in the
stone wall of the builduig now occupied by the Goodyear Rubber
Company.
The Bank of Montreal, the first bank in Canada, was opened in
Montreal in 181 7.
'j'he second steamer built on the continent of America was built
at Montreal, by Mr. John Molson, and was called the "Accommoda-
ticn." She made her first voyage in 36 hours, between Montreal and
Quebec, on the 3rd and 4th November, 1809.
From 1685 to 1801 Montreal was surrounded by a wall, extending
along the site of Fortification Lane from Victoria Square to Dalhousie
Square, at the Canadian Pacific Railway Depot. From Victoria
Square the walls extended down to the river, about the site of McGill
Street. The v:ity then was of a triangular shape, the small angle
pointing towaids the east. At present the city is of a triangular shape,
but the small angle points towards the west, it seeming to have
l)een turned end for end.
Montreal is less subject to epidemics than many other cities of the
same size, although the small-pox got a hold of it in 1885, on account
of the vast majority of the French-Canadians being prejudiced against
vaccination, 'i'he number of deaths was 3,164 ; of these, 2.887 ^^^'re
French-Canadians. i8t other Catholics, and 96 Protestants.

You may depend on all the advertisers in this book to deal fairly
with you if you wish to trade with them. There are no advertisements
of mean or sharp people in this book.
While the publisher of this book does not deny that he wishes to
make some money out of it, the first object he has in view is to give
such information to the stranger or tourist as will be interesting and
useful to him. As this is the only book of this kind that ever reached
five editions in five years in Montreal, the author believes he is ac-
complishing his object, and at the same time giving his patrons full
value for their money. As this is an age of novelty, the author has
adopted an original plan in putting the preface in the middle of his
book.
HOTELS.
For first-class hotels Montreal is second to no other city in America.
The Windsor Hotel, Dominion Square, is the largest and grandest
hotel, not only in Montreal, but in the whole Dominion. It is on the
finest site in the city, near the new C.P.R. and G.T.R. depots. It
is within a stone's throw of the principal churches in the city, and
close to the famous Mount Royal Park. The Classic Rotunda of the
hotel, grandly frescoed, and its beautiful stained glass windows, is
well worth a visit from all tourists passing through our beautiful city.
In the evenings the Rotunda is always like a r-tock exchange where
business men meet to talk business or hear the news, or make enquiries
of Mr. McConniff about travelling arrangements, or to get the latest
edition of the New York or Toronto i)apers at the news-stand, which
is always open till midnight.
The Balmoral Hotel, opened in 1886, is a first-class hotel, with all
modern conveniences. It is near the C.P.R. and the Ci.T.R. depots
and the wharf of the Upper Canada boats.
The St. Lawrence Hall is the oldest established first-class hotel at
present existing in Montreal. It is in the heart of the business centre
of the city, adjoining the (ieneral Post Office, and has been so well
known to the public for many years that it needs no recommend-
ation. With such three hotels as the Windsor, the Balmoral and the
Hall a traveller will make no mistake in going to either.
The other principal hotels in Montreal are the Richelieu Hotel,
the Albion Hotel, on Mcdill Street; the Canada Hotel, St. Gabriel
Street ; the Jacques Cartier Hotel, Jacques Cartier Square ; the New
York House, on Lagauchetiere Street; and the St. James Hotel,
opposite the Grand Trunk depot.
MONTREAL AND VICINITY.
15
CHURCHES.
After the stranger has fixed on an hotel to stop in, the first point
of attraction in Montreal is the churches. Montreal is noted for the
number of churches it contains, as well as for the number of its
charitable institutions. There are at present 76 churches in Montreal,
or one church for every 2,800 people. Of these 20 are Roman Cath-
olic, 18 Presbyterian, 14 Episcopal, i Reformed Plpiscopal, 12 Meth-
odist, 3 Congregational, 4 Baptist, i Swedenborgian or New Jer-
tisalem Church, i United Free Church, i Luther or German Protest
ant Church, i Unitarian, and 3 Jewish Synagogues. There are seven
Protestant churches in which the services are conducted in the French
language.
Mark Twain remarked at the Windsor once, that he never saw so
many churches within a stone's throw of each other before.
St. Peter's Cathedral, properly speaking the Cathedral of St. James,
(he being its patron saint), now in course of construction on Dominion
Square, demands first attention. It is being built after the model of
St. Peter's at Rome, of which, generally speaking, it is about half the
dimensions. The foundation of it was laid in 186S. The dimensions
of St. Peter's at Rome are : length, 615 feet ; breadth, 286 feet, ; and
height, 435 to the top of the dome.
I'he following are the dimensions of St. Peter's of Montreal, copied
from the figures on the plan of the cathedral, very kindly given to the
compiler of this little book, by gentlemen in actual charge of the con-
struction. The exact heiglit to the top of the cross is 258 feet, that
is 240 feet to the top of the c'ome, and the cross being t8 feet high,
makes the entire lieight 258 feet. The breadtli of the cross is 12 feet.
It weighs 1,500 lbs. The stone work is 132 feet high. Above this is
the dome, 108 feet of wood work, with the cross, 18 feet high, fixed
on the top. The extreme length of the building is 333 feet exterior
and 295 feet interior, 'i'he greatest breadth is 222 feet exterior and
216 interior. The general breadth is 150 feet. The general thick-
ness of the wall is between three and four feet. The foundation wall
is eight feet thick and eight feet deep lielow the surface. The cir-
cumference of the outside of the dome is 240 feet. The view ot the
city from the dome excells by far every other view in the city.
Th<.' i)arish church of Notre Dame, erroneously called the French
Cathedral, stands ui)on Place d'Armes, Notre Dame Street (the cold-
est spot in Montreal at all seasons of the year). It is built after the
model of Notre Dame (Our Lady) in Paris. It holds 10,000 people
comfortably, and when crowded, as it often is, it has been known to
hold 15,000 people. The length of the church is 255 feet, and the
i6

?§'
breadth 134 feet. The two principal towers are 227 feet high. The
Bourdon bell, the largest in America, weighs 24,780 lbs., and cost
$25,000. It is 8 feet 7 inches in diameter, and 6 feet 9 inches high.
It is I foot thick. The clapper weighs 860 lbs. Besides this en-
'ormous bell there are 10 other bells, which, when rung as on great
occasions, make very agreeable chimes. It is stated that the entire
church cost over $6,000,000. • It is the largest ecclesiastical edifice
in America, except the cathedral of Mexico. It has 19 double con-
fession boxes, Avhere 19 priests can hear 38 confessions at one time.
It has two galleries, one above the other.
The church of Notre Dame de Lourdes, built in 1874, for the pur-
pose of illustrating the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception, is the
most beautiful church in the city. The adoration of the Virgin under
this name dates from the nth February, 1858, when it is stated that
the Blessed \'irgin appeared to a young shepherdess fourteen years
of age, named Bernadette Soubirous, at the Grotto of Massabielle, on
the banks of the river Gave, near the town of Lourdes (Loord), in the
the diocese of Tarbes, on the Upper Pyrenees, in the south-west of
France, 530 miles from Paris. It is stated that the Blessed Virgin
appeared to this girl eighteen times, and told her that "' she
was the Immaculate Conception," and sent a message by her to the
clergy, to tell them to build a chapel for her on that rock. It is also
further stated that she revealed a secret to her, which she told her
not to make known. It is also further stated that water, with healing
qualities, gushed out of the rock at that time, and continued to ffow
ever since. In the basement of Notre Dame de Lourdes, at Montreal,
is a fac-simile of the Grotto at Lourdes, which strangers interested in
such things should not fail to visit. Lourdes, at present, is a well-
known place of i)ilgrimage. Lourdes is noted for its excellent choco-
late, and is in the neighborhood of the best mineral springs of the
Pyrenees. — (Anna T. Sadliers, Wonders of liOurdes.)
The church of Notre Dame de Bonsecours (Our Lady of Good
Help) is the oldest church in the city, being erected in 1771.
Of the other Roman Catholic catholic churches, the most interesting
to tourists and others are : the Jesuits' Church, on Bleury Street ; St.
Patrick's Church, on St. Alexander Street; Notre Dame de Naza-
reth ; and the church of St. James.
PROTESTANT CHURCHES.
Christ Church ('athedral (l'4)isco])al), on St. Catharine Street, is
said to be the finest specimen of gothic architecture in North America.

of the grandest churches in Montreal in St. James Church, on St.
Catherine Street.
Of the Presbyterian churches, Crescent Street Church, St. Paul's
Church, and the American Presbyterian Church receive the most
attention for architecture. St. Gabriel Street Presbyterian Church is
tlie oldest existing Protestant Church in Canada. It was erected in
^792.
The Young Men's Christian Association, the oldest institution of

:J VICTORLV BRIDGE.
A
I A'ictoria Bridge, the longest bridge in the world, at the time of its
•;? crecdon was considered the eighth wonder of the world. It is iJb
miles long between stone work and 2 miles long including stone work
approaches. It is made of twenty-five tubes, supported by twenty-
four piers, and two end abutments. The lower side of the centre
tube is sixty feet above the summer level of the River St. Lawrence.
It was erected in 1859 by James Hodges, from the designs of Robert
Stephenson and Alexander M. Ross.
It was formally opened by the Prince of Wales in i860. The height
from the bed of the river to the top of the centre tulje is 108 feet.
The greatest dejjth of \Vatcr during the summer season is about 22
feet, but in the spring the water sometimes rises over 20 feet above
the summer level of ilie river. In the spriiic of 1886 the water rose
25 feet above the average summer level. Tnc centre has an elevation
of about 20 feet above the ends. The current at the bridge runs at
the rate of seven miles an hour. The bridge cost over $6,000,000.
It belongs to the Grand Trunk Railway Company. Trains generally
take from four and a half to five minutes to cross the l)ridge. It took
five and one-half years to build it.

THE LACHINE CANAL is 8^ miles long, and overcomes a
total rise of 45 feet. It has five locks, 270 feet long and 45 feet wide.
Vessels drawing twelve feet of water can pass through it. The width
of the canal varies from 163 to 208 feet. The first ground was bro-
ken at Lachine on the 17th of July, 1821.
WATER WORKS.— The water of the city is taken from the River
St. Lawrence, about a mile above the Lachine Rapids, at a point 37
feet above the summer level of the harbor of Montreal. One branch
of the aqueduct starts at that point, and another branch starts from
a point a little over half a mile above. Both unite and form a canal
about five miles long to the wheel house, at the west end of the city.
From the wheel house the water is pumped to the large reservoir,
on the side of the mountain, a distance of about three miles. The
large reservoir, dug out of the solid rock, is 200 feet above the level
of the St. Lawrence. It is 810. feet long by 377 feet wide, and 24
feet deep. It has a capacity of 36^4 millions of gallons. From the
large reservoir the water that supplies the city above Sherbrooke
Street is i)umped to a smaller reservoir 70 yards further up, on the
side of the mountain. The Water works of the city cost $6,coo,ooo.
THE LACHINE RAPIDS are about seven miles above Montreal,
and about two miles below the town of Lachine. The Rapids extend
about half a mile in length between Heron Island on the north and
Devil's Island on the south. During the summer season trains leave
Bonaventure Depot 7.55 a.m. and 5 p.m., to connect with the boats
sliOoting the Rajjids in the morning and evening. The round trip
may be made in about two hours — return tickets 50c. Oi)posite
Lachine is the Indian village of Caughnawaga, where a remnant of the
Mohawk tribe of Iro(}uois are settled upon a reserve. These Indians
are famous for their skill in boating, so that when the British Govern-
ment, in 1884, sent a boat expedition up the cataracts of the Nile, for
the relief of Kartoum, a gang of fifty Caughnawagas were sent to lead
the exi)edition, and how saiisfiictorily they performed their task is
known to all who took an intcixst in the history of these times.
PARKS AND S(2UARES.
Mount Royal, so called by Jacques Cartier, on his first visit to
Canada, 1535, in honor oij the King of France, rises over 700 feet
nl ovc the level of the River St. Lawrence. The mountain park
er: 430 acres of ground. A fine view of the city and surrounding
i .'•ry may be got from the summit. Looking southward across the

mountain (or St. Hilaire), with the ruin of a chapel on the summit.
A depression in the midst of this mountain is occupied by a lake of
singular clearness and depth.
Next is Rougemont, almost concealing the Yamaska mountain be-
hind it ; and to the right the conical shape of Mount Johnson, or
Monoir, sharply breaks above the level surface. In the far distance
are to be seen the green mountains of Vermont to the left, and the
Adirondacks, in New York to the right.
The cemeteries may be mentioned in connection with Mount Royal
Park, of which thev nov/ form a part. The first Catholic Cemetery
was situated at Place d'Armes, and the Protestant Cemetery was
located where St. James and St. Peter Streets meet. As the city ex-
tended, the Roman Catholic Cemetery was removed to Dominion
Square, and the Protestant Cemetery to Dufferin Square^ on Dorchester
Street east. There was also a Civil and Military Cemetery on
Papineau road and on St. Helen's Island ; and finally they were all
removed to their present location. In the Roman Catholic Cemetery
the ascent to Mount Calvary, by the 14 stations of the cross, appeals
to the devotion of Roman Catholics, and interests Protestants, as
being a feature not met with in the cemeteries usually visited.
St. Helen's Island, now used as a public park, is the most po[)ular
place for picnics in the city. The island is named after Hdlene
Boulle, Champlain's wife, the first European lady that came to Can-
ada. It was used for many years by the British Government as a
depot for military stores and a station for troops. The fort and
barracks still remain.
Viger Square, or as it is popularly called, Viger Garden, in St.
Denis Street.
The Champ-de-Mars, upon Craig Street, is a fine exercise ground
for troops.
Jacques-Cartier Square, near the City Hall and Court House, has
a fine outlook ui)on the river. A column, surmounted by a statue of
Lord Nelson, is placed at the head of the square. It was erected in
1808 by the merchants of Montreal, short' y after the death of the
Admiral at Trafalgar.
Victoria Squark, at the junction of St. James and McGill Streets,
is on the sit« of the old hay market. The name was changed in i860,
in honour of the Queen, on the occasion of the visit of the Prince of
^Vales to Canada. Upon it is a colossal statue of the Queen, in
bronze, by Marshal Wood, an English artist.
Dominion S(,)i:are is the finest square in the city as to site. Till
late years it was knows as the Catholic Cemetery. The Windsor

Hotel, St. Peter's Cathedral, and several other churches, give it im-
portance architecturally. (See list of streets, etc.)
Place d'Armes (so called on account of a battle that was once
fought here with the Indians), the site of the first Roman Catholic
Cemetery in Montreal, is opposite Notre Dame Church ; it is sur-
rounded on all sides by important buildings. This is said to be the
coolest spot in Montreal at all seasons of the ye^r.
THE ST. LAWRENCE.
The River St. Lawrence is 2,200 miles long. Its remotest
source is the St. Louis, a small stream falling into the upper end of
Lake Superior. It is the fourteenth longest river in the world, and
the fifth longest river in America. From Quebec to Montreal, a short
distance below Quebec to the Gulf of St. Lawrence, it varies from 10
to 35 miles in width. Half way between Montreal and Quebec it
widens out into Lake St. Peter, which is 20 miles long and 9 wide.
Jacques Cartier sailed for the first time on the Gulf of St. Lawrence
on the loth of August, 1535, and that being St. Lawrence Day, he
named that body of water in honor of the saint, and the Gulf and
River St. Lawrence have been known by that name ever since.
At Quebec the river rises 14 feet, but it ceases to be observed at
the lower end of Lake St. Peter. The depth of the river is so great,
that Quebec was one of the few ports in America which the "Great
Eastern " was able to visit.
PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
The principal public buildings are : — the Court House, Bonsecours
Market (should be visited on Tuesday or Friday), the Custom House,
the Examining Warehouse, the new City Hall, the Harbor Commis-
sioners' Building, Inland Revenue Office, the office of the Board of
Arts and Agriculture, and the Exhibition Buildings and Grounds,
Mile End.
RAILWAY STATIONS.
Montreal has three of the best railway stations on the continent,
all new. The Grand Trunk and Canadian Pacific Railways, have
Bonaventure and Windsor stations in the west end of the city, and
the Canadian Pacific Railway has also Dalhousie Station in the east
end for the Quebec line. The Grand Trunk Railway depot at Bona-
venture, or St. James Street, and the Canadian Pacific Railway Sta-
tion, on Windsor Street, should be visited by any one who has time.
The order and discipline around Bonaventure Depot is very credit-
able to Mr. O'Hara who spares no pains to have everything right and
leave everybody satisfied.

BENEVOLENT INSTITUTIONS.
Montreal is as remarkable for the number and variety of its philan-
trophic institutions as it is for the number of its churches. Every
national society has its " home " for those of its own nationality. The
St. George's Society for English, St. Andre . for Scotch, St. Patrick's
for the Catholic Irish, the Irish Benevolent Society for Protestant
Irish, the German Society for Germans, and St. John the Baptist's for
French-Canadians. The social organization of Montreal is so com-
posite, that in order to work well, many institutions require to be
triplicate at best. Race and language divide the French from the
English and Irish, and religion divides the English from the French
and Irish ; and the Irish are subdivided by religion, so that they
require two separate national benevolent societies.
The following are the principal institutions : —
Protestant Insane Asylum, Verdun.
The Montreal General Hospital, corner Dorchester and St. Dom-
inique, founded in 1822.
Protestant House of Industry and Refuge, 680 Dorchester Street.
The McKay Institute, for Protestant Deaf Mutes, Cote St. Luc Road.
The Montreal Dispensary, 145 St. Antoine St.eet.
The Ladies' Benevolent Institution, 31 Berthelet Street.
Church Home, in connection with the Episcopal churches in the
city, 116 University Street.

Grey Nunnery, corner of Guy and Dorchester Streets. At one
time this institution served as an hospital. It is now more of a
foundling institution and boarding-house for old men and old women.
The name "Grey Nuns" was first given them in derision. The
malicious reports circulated against the ladies, especially that of their
"furnishing the Indians with alcohol, and making too free a use of it
themselves," gave rise to tne epithet " Sceurs Grises " (Grey Nuns),
the word grise (grey) bearing a double meaning in French, "iz., a grey
color, or tipsy. The peculiar dress worn by the sisterhood of that
order was adopted by them for the first time in August, 1775 ; seven-
teen years after the foundation of the order. The order was founded
in 1738, the first list of members being Mme. d'Youville, with three
pious companions and four or five infirm poor. In the year 1747, the
management of the old General Hospital of Ville-Marie, founded in
1694, was given to the sisters of this order. During the year of the
ship fever in 1847-8, these sisters took a leading part in their attend-
ance on suffering humanity at that time. This institution has about
800 inmates, between nuns and patients. Although visitors are al-
ways welcome, twelve o'clock noon is the time that is best for visitors
to call, as special preparations for the reception of visitors are made
then.
On a little spot of ground (neatly fenced in) at Point St. Charles,
near the end of the Victoria Bridge, is an enormous stone, called the
Immigrant's Memoiial Stone, taken from the bed of the River St.
Lawrence, and erected on a column of stone work by the working
men employed in the construction of the Victoria Bridge, bearing the
following inscription : — " To preserve from desecration the remains of
6,000 immigrants, who died of of ship fever, A.D. 1847-8, this ^tone
is erected by the workingmen of Messrs. Peto, Brassey and Bctts,
employed in the construction of the Victoria Bridge, A.D. 1859.
Tne Hotel Dieu Hosi)ital is the oldest institution of the kind in
Montreal, being founded in 1644, two years after the foundation of
the city. It is under the management of the Black Nuns. It con-
tains a hospital, a convent, and a church. Eighty of the sisters are
cloistered, and do not go outside of the building and grounds.
In the Notre Dame Hospital the management is decidedly Roman
Catholic, but it is open for the relief of the sick and suffering of all
creeds; and the patients have thy privilege of sending for a clergy-
man of the denomination they belong to.
The sisters of the orders of Asile de la Providence have eight
institutions under their charge at Montreal. They have also charge
of the Insane Asylum at Longue Point.

EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS.
The school laws for Montreal are, in some respects, peculiar. An
assessment of one-fifth of one per cent is levied annually upon all the
real estate in the city, collected by the City Treasurer with the other
taxes, and handed over to the two city boards of Protestant and
Catholic School Commissioners. The tax on the property of
Protestants goes to the Protestant Board, and that on the property
of Catholics to the C .tholic Board. One-third of the tax on Com-
panies, etc., goes to the Protestant Schools, and two-thirds to the
Catholic Schools.
McGILL UNIVERSITY was founded by James McGill, a native
of (ilasgow, ScoMand, who died in 1813, leaving $150,000 for the
foundation of a College to be called by his name. It is Protestant
in its general character, but undenominational, all the leading Pro-
testant denominations having like privileges in it. It has over 500
students and 40 professors. It has four faculties, of Arts, Applied
Science, Medicine, and Law. Being non-denominational, it has no
Theological Faculty ; but it offers advantageous terms of affiliation
to other Theological Colleges. It is affiliated with the Presbyterian,
Wesleyan, Congregational, and Anglican Diocesan Theological Col-
leges at Montreal. It has also two affiliated colleges in Arts ; Morrin
College, Quebec, and St. Francis College, Richmond. It is also
affiliated with the McGill Normal School.
The Presbyterian College of Montreal is entirely devoted to the
training of missionaries and ministers speaking English, French, and
Gaelic, in connection with the Presbyterian Church in Canada.
The Montreal College and Grand Seminary, or the Seminary of
St. Sulpice, on Sherbrooke Street West, has a large number of students
and professors. There are two courses of study, one for the church
and the other for a business course.
Laval University. — What the McGill University is to the English
and Protestants of the Province, the University Laval is to the French
Catholics. The chief seat of this institution is at Quebec.
The establish'ment of Laval University at Montreal profoundly
agitated the French community, and the matter does not seem to have
been finally settled as yet.
St. Mary's College, otherwise called the Jesuits' College, on Bleury
Street, is under the nianagement of the Jesuit fathers.
Ville Marie Convent is the mother house of the order of Grey Nuns.
It has accommodation for 1,000 nuns. The nuns of this order make
an annual retreat here from all parts of the country. The building
is better known to some under the name of Monklands. It was at
24
MONTREAL AND VICINITY,
one time the residence of the Governor General of Canada. A fine
view of this building is got sailing down the river on a clear day. ^ •
The sisters of this order at present number about See professed
sisters, 90 novices, 50 postulants, and about 20.000 pupils.
The nuns of the order of the Sacred Heart have three establishments
in Montreal. The home of the order is at Amiens, France.
The Hochelaga Convent is the mother house of the siste-s of the
order of the holy names of Jesus and Mary.
The Veterinary College. — Montreal possesses a very important
School of Veterinary Science, under the care of Principal McP^achran.
Students from a great distance come to attend this College. It has
six professors besides the principal.
Board of Art Schools. — These are free evening classes for drawing.
The Montreal School has 300 pupils.
SCIENCE, LITERATURE AND ARTS.
Libraries. — The principal libraries in Montreal are : the McGill
College Library of 25,000 vols. The Advocates' Library in the Court
House, 15,000 vols. Presbyterian College Library, 10,000 vols.
The Mechanics' Institute has a very large library. There is a free
public library in the Eraser Institute, Dorchester Street. The Y.M.C. A.
has a very good library, and a well supplied free reading room.
THE FINE ARTS. '
Music. — There are several musical societies in the city, but only
two, the Mendelssohn Choir and Philharmonic Societies are regularly
organized.
The Art Association. — This institution owes its existance to the
late Bishop Fulford and the late Benaiah Gibb. There is a permanent
collection which is being gradually added to and improved. All art
exhibitions of any importance in Montreal take place here. The
Cralleries are open from nine to dusk, and are situated at the corner
of St. Catherine Street and Phillips Square, Saturday, except when
special exhibitions are in i)rogress, is fr:'e.
The Natural History Society. — The Mufeum of this Society is on
L^niversity Street, near the English Catliedra]. It is well worth a
visit. Among the interesting articles to be seen there is the first
breech-loadmg gun ever invented. It was sent. out to this country by
the French Government. It was used by the French in one of their
expeditions against the Indians of Lake Oka. The Indians attacked
the canoe in which the cannon was placed and upset it. The cannon
lay for a while in the bottom of the lake and one part of it was lost

AMUSEMENTS.
Theatres. — The Academy, on Victoria Street. The Queen's, cor-
ner of Victoria and St. Catherine Streets. The Royal, on Cote Street.
tobogganing. — This is the most popular of the winter sports of
Montreal ; although, like most other amusements, it is not without its
dangers.
Hunting. — Montreal can boast of the best conducted hunting
establishment on this continent ; Kennels, at Papineau Road.
Skating. — The Victoria Skating Rink is the largest and best Skating
Rink in Europe or America. Besides this Skating Rink there are
several others of less importance.
Gymnasium. — The Gymnasium of the Montreal Amateur Athletic
Association (M. A. A. A.), 114 Mansfield Street, is a very good and
useful institution.
The following kinds of amusements are also well represented in
Montreal : — Cricket, Base Ball, Foot Ball, Curling, Chess, Boating,
Bicycling, Golf, Racket, Lawn Tennis. (Racing — Blue Bonnets, about
5 miles west of Montreal, and Lepine Park, about 3 miles east of
Montreal, are the principal places for this amusement, where vast
crowds of people gather on a racing day.)
Militia. — Volunteering is a favorite occupation of the young men of
the city. There are six regiments of Infantry, one troop of Cavalry,
one company of Engineers, one battery of Horse Artillery, and six
batteries of Garrison Artillery.
NEWSPAPERS AND PERIODICALS.
The newspapers and periodicals of Montreal, in English and French,
are about fifty in number. There are five French and four English
daily and ten French and eight English weekly newspapers. There
are eight French and eleven English monthly and two English
quarterly periodicals.
The Gazette (Conservative) and Herald (Liberal) are the English
morning papers. The Gazette is the oldest existing pajjcr in the
26

m
Dominion, being established in 1778. It was orininally written in
French, afterwards half French half English, and finally it was wholly
issued in English.
The Quebec Gazette, published in 1764, was the first paper printed
in Canada.
The Star is a general newspaper, and has the largest circulation in
Canada. It does not devote much space to editorials, but when it
does start its weight is always felt. The letters from the general
public on the topics of the day, in its Saturday issue, are always very
interesting. It upholds British connection ancl advocates the building
uj) of a Canadian Nationality. It was established in 1869.
'J'he Witness is a religious, ])olitical, temperance and comic paper.
It advocates prohibition but opposes high license. At the last
general election it took sides with anti-British party. It advocates
that unknown quantity called Unrestricted Reciprocity.
The principal Canadian newspapers outside of Montreal are the
Toronto Mail, Globe and Empire. The Mail is independe.it and is
the leading morning paper in Canada. The Globe is liberal and the
Umpire is Conservative in politics.
The True Witness is the Irish Catholic National and Home Rule
Organ. It was the only paper in Montreal that did not make any de-
monstration for the Queen's Jubilee ; but it stood up for the British
ilag at the last election.
The Shareholder, published in Montreal, is a very valuable paper
to business men.

HOW TO VISIT THE PRINCIPAL PLACES OF INTEREST IN THE SHORTST
TIME FOR THE LEAST MONEY.
In whateves quarter of the city you are lodging, the first place to
visit is Notre Dame Church.
From the Windsor, if you do not wish to hire a cab, walk down
Windsor street to the corner of St. Antoine street or up to the corner
of St. Catherine street. From there take the street cars going east,
and tell the conductor to let you off at the Post Office, and then a few
paces from you is Notre Dame Church and several other places of
interest. A few blocks east from there is the new City Hall, the
Court House, Nelson's monument, St. Gabriel street old Presbyterian
Church, and not far away is the Bonsecours Market and Bonsecours
Church. While there you may visit the Harbor and the new Custom
House, about a half mile further west. Then walk up McGill Street
to Victoria Square, from whence you may get the street cars to take
you to the principal places of interest up town. P'irst visit the Notre
Dame de Lourdes, near the corner St. Catherine and St. Denis Streets.
From thence retrace your steps westwards, till you come to Bleury
street, and there is the old Jesuits' Church and College. Then turn
up to St. Catherine street west, till you come to the Art Gallery, cor-
ner of Phillips square. Then visit the English Cathedral and the
Museum of the Natural History Society. Then take the street cars
till you come west as fur as Guy Street and visit the Grey Nunnery at
noon. After dinner, hire a cab to take you to McGill College (there
is a very interesting museum in connection with the College, which
visitors may enter on payment of a small entrance fee)' and close by
are the two city reservoirs ; and if you don't wish to hire a cab to take
you to the top of the mountain, you cau go up by the elevator for 5
cents. Then after you have taken a good view of the surrounding
country from the top of the mountain, and visited the two cemeteries,
you can come luick to the city by the omnibuses for 15 cents, and
you have a dny well spent, and not over a dollar of necessary expense,
besides your hotel bill.

f MOUNT ROYAL €L€VATOR *
Any visitor to Montreal who has not visited and taken a ride on the Mount
Royal Elevator, cannot say that he has seen the principal sights of the city , This
masterpiece of modern engineering has been in working order since September,
1885. Cars run from 15th April ta iSth November of each year, and Uikes
passengers from the bottom to the top of Mount Royal, 1728 feet incline and 422
feet perpendicular height, in three minutes, for the small sum of five cents. It
connects with the St. Catherine, lileury and St. Lawrence lines of street railway.
It is close to the Exhibition Grounds. This is the shortest and cheapest way to
the famous Mount Royal Park, and Cemeteries. In 189 1 250,000 people passed
throui h this line. The construction cost $45,000. Every possible precaution is
taken as to safety. The engine is loo horse power, and can move eleven tons or
150 passengers to the top, but only 75 people are allowed to get on at one time.
Besides the cables attached to each car and the motive power there is also a safety
cable connecting the two cars which balance even with the same number of passen-
gers going up and down. These safety cables are controlable by strong brakes.
All the machinery is carefully tested and examined every morning before the com-
menccn.ent of the day's travel.
