 DIOCESir OF' MONTREAL, 
 
 CANADA eI^T. 
 
 f 
 
 The Piocese of Montreal was establislied in the 
 year^ 1850, bj the division of the old Diocese of 
 , Quebec : and contains an extent of country just abouV 
 ■jfche size of England and Wfeles. -Bj for the greater 
 portion of Caiada East, or Lower Caatfda, was settled 
 by French Bom&n Catholics, before the province was 
 ceded to die croT^ of England, in 1763: and aA 
 .immense Majority of the present population are 
 members of the Roman Catholic Church. According • 
 to the census of 1852, out of 890,261 there were 
 746,866 Roman Catholics, and 669,523 of French 
 origin : and out of 57,/l5 in the city of Montreal, 
 41,414 were of that communion. In consequence of 
 thiq, the progress of the Church of England has 
 beeu comparatively jnuch slower than in Upper 
 Canada, aiid it continues to be attended with^much 
 greater J^cnlt ies; the Boman CathoUca b^ag^ 
 
 very nearly in ithe proportion v©f 7 to 1 of the 
 whole population. Nor has the Church in Lower

 Panada, where the population in the rural districts 
 18 much less wealthy than in the West, received the 
 same amount of assistance .towards endowments, as 
 m the upper province. So .large a portion of the 
 , land having been already conceded, and forming the 
 property of the French Seigneurs, the free territory 
 out of which grants couM be made was very limited 
 and the lots set apart under the name of Clergy 
 Reserves buf of little value. While, therefore by 
 the recent act for the Secjilarisatioja of these Clergy 
 Reserve Lands, the Church in Upp^ Canada received 
 for compensation a sum equal to about 1,700^ for 
 each Clergyman, in the Diocese of Montreal it only 
 amounted to 170/. And this with a. few small glebe^ 
 most of which have been purchased within the last 
 seven years, and are all under 50/. annual value, forms 
 the whole amount of endowment now held for the 
 maintenance of the Clergy. For, what is further 
 necessary, they depend upon the aid of the Society 
 /or the Propagation of the Gospel, and the voluntary 
 contributions of the pepple. About the period of 
 the appointment of the first Bishop in 1850, notice 
 was given by the Society for the Propagation of the 
 Gospel, that they should be obliged in consequence of 
 the great demands made upon their funds in other 
 quarters to withdraw the assistance they had so long 
 been giving to the Church in Canada: and from the 
 Djocese oft TorontI) it will be withdrawn entirely

 pendent of external help. But without the aid of 
 endowments, with a poorer class of settlers in the 
 country^ districts, with the members often widely 
 scattered amongst an overwhelming majority of other 
 creeds, and with Montreal as the only town in the 
 Diocese where any help can be obtained towards thd 
 more destitute districts, it must be ground for hope and 
 encouragement if we can be (©sfied, for the present, 
 that some real advance is making, and a good spirit 
 according to their power, manifested by the different 
 congregations. " 
 
 In a Pastoral Letter, addressed by tte Bishop to 
 his Clergy, just before his leaving Montreal for the ^ 
 purpose of visiting England, dated 10th August 
 18o7, after alluding to his expected departure from' 
 his Diocese, his Lordship writes :— - 
 
 "From all that Ihave been able to learn of the inten- 
 tions of tl^ Society for the Propagation of the Gospel, I 
 certainly have reason to expect that a very considerable 
 reduction will be made after the 1st July, ll858, ia the 
 amount which has been, allowed us during the last five 
 years. And I need scarcely state for your information, tifat 
 there will be an absolute necessity for increased exertions 
 being made by the members of the Church amongst us, if 
 we are to maintain our present position, and still more so 
 If we are tt, continue, as we ought to do, increasing our 
 efficiency and extending our ^orders. 
 
 " I may remind you that it was just about the period of 
 my *PPr^ent to this Bishopric, that the Society for the 
 _ «)pagatioa^Qf^4he Gospel Tefused tagranTaJSy addTtTomir^ 
 aid, as they had heretofore done, on the appointment of 
 Clergymen to any fresh Missions; so that whatever pro- 
 gress has been made since that time, has been, for the 
 
S?' 
 
 most part, from the increased efforts of our pwn membcrsy 
 assisted, as vacancies occurred, by a different distribution 
 of the annual grant placed at our disposal by the Society 
 for the Propagation of the Gospel. Such a course certainly 
 necessitated a somewhat more cautious and slower move- 
 ment, but it was on surer ground as far as it went, and 
 gave proof of more inherent vitality in our body, and of 
 better hope for the future. Without indulging then vi 
 any vain boastings or unfounded calculations, 1 cannot but 
 feel confident that the Church in tliis Diocese has been 
 doing a good work, and making considerable advances 
 during the last seven years, and they have been seven 
 years which have not been all ' years of plenty.' It will 
 perhaps inlJerest you to know a few particulars respecting 
 what has been done, and it may Afford us encouragement 
 to hope that we may be able yet to accomplish still more. 
 
 When I arrived in Montreal in September, 1850, there 
 were 48 Clergymen officiating in the Diocese, serving 43 
 separate cures ; there are now 55 Clergy officiating in 51 
 separate cures, and there are three others vacant. Of these 
 55 Clergy, 21 have been appointed to their cures since my 
 arrival; the other 34 were in the Diocese before : while of 
 these 21, eleven have been licensed by me to newly formed 
 missions or cures, the remainder to fill vacancies in old 
 ones. Again, of these 21 new Clergy, fourteen have been 
 ordained by me within the Diocese, 2 came out from 
 England, 2 from the Diocese of Quebec, 1 from Toronto, 
 1 from l?red#icton, and 1 from New Orleans. Of the 55 
 Clergy now officiating in the Diocese, 34 only have Par- 
 sonage Houses ; of which 17, with more or less glebe 
 attached to them, have been provided since^September, 
 1850. There are 6.6 Churches now in use (besides School- 
 houses and private rooms in which Divine Service is per- 
 formed); of w h inh number Slfhftve been consecrated^ fmd-= 
 
 the other 16 are used without being consecrated, either 
 not being quite completed, or not out of debt, or being 
 about to be rebuilt. Of these Churches 1& have beeu con< 
 
 ..#> 
 
 
 '3i

 seerated by me ; and there are 9 in coarse of erection, 
 including the Cathedral and 3 others which are being 
 rebuilt to replace the or^nal ones, now too small or 
 dilapidated — ^besides two which have been much enlarged. 
 There are also in the Diocese 33 consecrated Burial- 
 grounds, of which number 14 have been consecrated by me. 
 "No doubt, when we look at the waste places yet unoo- 
 cupied, and call to mind the very imperfect machinery we 
 have yet been able to employ, and the weakness of our 
 own best endeavours, we must feel an humbling conscious- 
 ness of the unworthiness of all we have been striving to 
 do ; yet we may still see that this Diocese, which labours 
 under many disadvantages, has during the last seven years 
 been making great comparative progress, and with less 
 external help than at any former period : and without ad- 
 verting to other topics, I may notice the steady increase 
 in the funds of the Church Society, — the great success 
 which has attended the establishment of the Fund for 
 Widows and Orphan^ of the Clergy; and also that very 
 nearly 10,000/. was raised last year, within the Diocese, 
 for Church purposes. We must, however, remember while 
 enumerating these material signs of advance and increase, 
 that they are som/s of the signs and evidences of that in- 
 fluence for good which the Church is daily gaining, more 
 or less as the case may be, m different parts of the Diocese, 
 and of the manner in which she is winning the affections 
 and the confidence of the people. This is testified by the 
 numbers who attend our services, and partake of the 
 ordinances administered by us, and by the character of the 
 people, wherever our Clergy are faithfully serving in the 
 work of the ministry, and especially where in any district 
 they are sufficiently numerous to be able to co-operate in 
 their labour, and bring a united influence to bear upon the 
 public mind . And while it is, no doubt,_a fact tluitve^ 
 
 great advantages have arisen from the subdivision of the 
 old Diocese of Quebec, yet it is most certain 4hat no in- 
 fluence of a Bishop resideoiiPiuiiQngst jou, however dili" 
 
gent he might be, or however able /to give Ume and 
 attention to the several parts of his/charge, could have 
 produced, during these seven yeari such satisfactory 
 results, unless he had had the willing and earnest co- 
 operation of his Clergy in their several cures : to whom in 
 80 many mstances belongs the credit, as they had also the 
 chief anxiety and labour in carrying into successful opera- 
 tion the works enumerated above." 
 
 And it may be also mentioned, in order to show, 
 that there is a willing mind in those who can afford 
 to give for the ordinary support of the Church and 
 the poor, that the sum raised by the congregation of 
 the late pathedral during last year, from the pew- 
 rents, offertory, and collections for « The Diocesan 
 Church Society," amounted to 2,6511.; from St. 
 George's Church, 1,763^. ; and others in the city 
 were in proportion to their congregations— collections 
 which will not often be surpassed by Churches in 
 England, even where the members are far wealthier 
 than those in Montreal. 
 
 The prosperity of the Church, however, has lately 
 received a great temporary check i^n the City and 
 Diocese of Montreal, by the loss of! the Cathedral, 
 which was totally destroyed by fire, on the lOth of 
 last December. This building was the old Parish 
 Church, constituted the Cathedral by the Royal 
 Letters Patent in' 1850; but it wap neither well 
 situated nor appropriately constructed for such a 
 purpose. The occasion seemed to offer an oppor- 
 tunity for endeavouring to erect one in a better 
 
 A\ 
 
 A 
 
 location, and in every way more suitable. The work 
 has been commenced with considerable spirit. Plans 
 
9 
 
 were obtained from Mr. Frank Wills, the architect 
 employed by the Bishop of Fredericton in the erection 
 of his Cathedral ; and if they can be carried but and 
 the whole completed according to the original design, 
 it will not be surpassed for b«au,ty or ecclesiastical 
 proprietyjljy any^ building in Ncjth America. 
 
 The Editor of the Ifew York " Church Journal," 
 who visiied Montreal during the recent meeting of 
 " The Ainerican Assbciation for the Advancement of 
 Science^**' in that ci^y, having seen the plans and the 
 commeycement of the work, gave an interesting 
 descrifjltion of the new cathedral in his paper of 
 Augu^ 26th, and concluded with the following 
 remarks : — 
 
 " We Lave been thus minute in our description of this ^ 
 fine building, because it is of such marked interest both 
 as a specimen of church architecture and as a step in 
 cathedral growth on this side the water. It will be the 
 finest cathedijal building of our communion on the conti- 
 nent, the onli one comparable to it being that at Frede- 
 ricton, by the same architect. The cathedral at Toronto 
 is larger thai^ either, but it is yet incomplete, and is 
 inferior to botik in purity and power of design." 
 
 The whole cost of the work will not fall much short 
 of 40,000/. : of this sum 16,000/. remains to be raised 
 by private subscription. The rest has been obtained 
 from the insurances on the old Cathedral and the sale 
 of some land at the old site. Before he left Mont- 
 real, the Bishop obtained the following subscriptions 
 
 'Om SOm fl o f tha mpTnVtorg nf ftm Pk .-i t >rAx fni.-- 
 
 collection has been since continued, and, it is ex- 
 pected that by this time it amounts to between 7,000/.

 (Since the above List was printed, the Bishop has received a letter, 
 informing him that 2,562/. -10*. additional subscriptions, in the city 
 of^ontreal, had been coUected up to the date of October 19th )

 When it is considered how small a body the 
 members of the Church of England are in S^ontreal, 
 how large are the annual demands upon them; for the 
 support of the Church in the City and Diocese, aiid 
 how much of its fiiture prosperity depends upon th<^ 
 position it is enabled to occupy in the Cathedral City] 
 4t^s not without some^eonfidenee that^iirappeal will 
 he met with a liberal response, that the Bishop now 
 asks of his brother Churchmen in England to help

 hinv in this great work: The Roman Catholics, with 
 many large churches in Montreal, one of which will 
 hold 10,000 worshippers, have just commenced their 
 new Cathedral, which is expected to cost 200 000/ • 
 and though members of the Church of England'ought ^^ 
 to have better motives to induce them to make fitting 
 provision for their Services than any mere rivalry 
 with others, yet the willingness, with which others , 
 are ready to make sacrifices for the honour of God 
 may remind th^ of their duties and responsibilities.' 
 Before fie left Montreal the Bishop received the fol-' 
 lowing address from the members of the Finance and 
 Building Committee, who are associated with him in 
 the work of rebuilding the Cathedral :— - 
 
 ", Montreal, August 22, 1857 
 "My LoaD,-We, the Members of the Finance and 
 Building Committee, appointed by the Vestry for the pur- 
 pose of superintending the rebuilding the Parish Church 
 and Cathedral, beg respectfully to request your Lordship 
 that you will, during your contemplated visit to En^^land 
 be pleased to endeavour to obtain some assistance from' 
 the members- of the Church in that country, towards com- 
 pleting the erection of our new Cathedral. We can con- 
 fidently leave it to your Lordship to explain in detail all 
 the particulars of the case. You will be able to show the 
 nature of the building we h^ve commenced, as well as its 
 cost the funds already at our disposal, and the efforts we 
 are Aiaking within the Diocese to raise subscriptions,in order 
 that the original design may be fuUy carried out. When 
 
 T'l T^ Cathedral was destr oyed by fire, we felt that wfi 
 
 should nothave teen justified, had we not taken advantage "^ 
 of the occasion thus afforded us for replacing it by a buiS- 
 mg of a more suitable character, and more worthy of the

 name; and we confidently hope, if we can succeed in 
 accMaplishing the work we have undertaken, that it will 
 by God s blessing, materially aid in promoting the influence 
 and efficiency of the Church in this City and Diocese We 
 congratulate your Lordship on the progress we have been 
 able to make before your departure, and trust that on your " 
 return to us in the spring of next year, you will find that 
 very considerable further advance has been effected The 
 success, too, which has so far attended the application for 
 subscriptions amongst the members of our Church in 
 Montreal is very encouraging.

 and safety of yourself and family, while absent from this 
 Province, and with every feeling^of unfeigned respect and 
 attachment.
