This Hotel, which for the past 20 years has been the resort of many thousands of visitors to Montreal, is situated on McGill and St. Paul Streets. It has been newly renovated and furnished with ample accommodation for 500 guests, and has gained a wide-spread reputation among the travelling public both in the United States as well as Canada. It is alike inviting to the pleasure seekers who visit the city, as also to the Commercial class and men of business, who find from the general comfort and attention, that convenience which characterizes this Hotel in every respect really first-class. Within the spacious reading room there is an office of the Montreal Telegrapjfi Company, and an operator in attendance, a convenience not always to be found in Hotels. McGill Street is the great thoroughfare of the City, and from its proximity to all the principal houses of business justly entitles the Albion Hotel to that large and increasing sup- port it has ever had from the numerous Commercial class, while from its position it commands a magnificent view of the River St. Lawrence, the Victoria Bridge, Victoria Square, and Mount Royal. The proprietors would direct the attention of their guests to the accompanying Diagram^ from which they will readily see the most direct routes from the various places of interest and business to the hotel. The Albion Hotel possesses every convenience which the travelling public can require, and no efforts are spared by the Proprietors, and those who have the management of its various usiness departments, and can here enjoy the advantages of a truly first-class hotel at moderate charges. The present proprietors will ever endeavour to sustain the re- putation the Albion has had for many years past, and to secure the continuance and patronage of the public. « DECKER, STEARNS & MURRAY.

'^'"'^ ^'^J^i':>ri3oH Montreal, the largest and most populous city, in short the commercial metropolis of British North America, situated upon the south shore of an island, and at the base of Mount Royal, from which the city and the island take their ifame* The cjty occupies a most commanding position. The island is about 30 niiles long and 10 broad, formed by the confluence of the Ottawa and St. Lawrence rivers, and on the north bank of the latter. Montreal posses^es^ all the advantages of an inland city, and Sf seaport accessible to steamships and other vessels of oyer 3000 tons burthen. Holding, too, the key§ as it were of the navigation of the canals, and Lakes—the latter styled " the new Mediterranean" — its position with reference to Quebec, Ontario, the Western States, New York, Boston, Portland, Albany, Nova Scotia, Newfound- land and Prince Edward Island, makes it, by its water and railway communication, the great centre of attrac- tion and commercial emporium of the Dominion of Canada. The city is the chief scat of manufacturing tn u terprist in t^« I>omiiiion. and contains many oostly 6 ALBION HOTEL establishments, the productions of which will com- : pare favorable with those of other countries. Montreal was founded in 1642, upon its present site, and for a long time bore the name of Ville Marie. Hochelega was the name of the original indian village, : upon which a portion of the city is built, and the eastern suburb still retains the name. Jacques Cartier first explored it in 1535. Nothing of its early history ; has been handed down to us beyond that the French settlers were often annoyed by the ravages of the Iroquois Indians. The population in 1758 was about 4000, and as now, was divided into upper and lower town. The upper part then being the level of the present Court House. In the lower town the mer- chants and men of business generally resided, and here were situated the Place d'Armes, the royal magazines, and the Nunnery hospital. In the upper town were the principal buildings, such as the palace of the Governor, the houses of the chief officers, the Convent of the Recollets, the Jesuits Church and Se- minary, the Free School, and the Parish Church. The houses were solidly constructed in that semi-monastic style peculiar to Rouen, Caen, and other towns in Normandy ; some of these buildings are now standing. For a long time it was the head-quarters of the French forces in Canada. It was surrended to the English in 1763, and about that time was described as a city of VISIT0R*8 GUIDE. 7^ an oblong form, surrounded by a wall flanked with eleven redoubts, a ditch about 8 feet deep, and of aij proportionate width, but dry, and a fort and citadel. ,^ Early in the present century, vessels of more than^; 300 tons could not ascend to Montreal, and its foreign trade was carried on by small brigs and barques. In i» 1809 the first steam vessel "The Accommodation" built * by the Hon. John Molson, made a trip to Quebec ; ^ she had berths for about 20 passengers. Years of in-,, dustry, intelligence, enterprise, and labour have pro-ff duced a mighty contrast, — ocean steamers of 3000 tons, the magnificent steamers of the Richelieu Com- pany, vieing in splendour and comfort with the far- famed Hudson River boats ; ships from 700 to 2000 tons, from all parts of the world, lying alongside the wharves of the harbour, which is not equalled on this continent, in point of extent, accommodation, approach and cleanliness. Montreal, as viewed from its approach by steamboat, with Mount Royal for a back ground, covered with beautiful villas, interspersed here and there with tall spires, is truly majestic, and for beauty is almost un- rivalled. The river frontage is about 3 miles in length, ex- tending from the Victoria Bridge to the village of Hochelaga. For more than a mile it hps an excellent ^tone retaining wall from the entrance to the Lachine ■:)■': 8' ALBtON ttOitt its glittering dome, forms one of the most conspicuous ^ objects on the right foreground, and contrasts with the ^ adjacent spire of the Bonsecours Church, one of the oldest in the city. We hardly think the view from the ^ steamers can be paralleled as you pass under the centre ^ tube of the Victoria Bridge, and first see the long ^ array of glittering spires, the lofty towers of the Parish » Church of Notre Dame, the well proportioned tower f of the Customs Buildings, and the long unbroken line ^ of cut stone stores flanking the wharf. '^^^ TICTOBIA BRIDGE. i? .t«^l The Victoria Bridge — The cost of this gigantic , ■♦ structure was originally estimated at ;^ 1,45 0,000, but ^ this sum has since been reduced, and the present '^ calculation of its cost is about ;^ 1,2 5 0,000. In it 250,000 tons of stone, and 7,500 tons of iron hate ^ been used. The iron superstructure is supported by 24 piers and two abutments. The centre span is 380 ' feet ; there are 12 spans each side of the centre of 242 ^ feet each. The extreme length, including abutments is 7000 feet. The height above summer water level in the -tentre opening is 60 feet, descending to either ends at the rate i in 130. The contents of the masonry are 3,000,000 cubic feet. The weight of iron in the tubes is 8,000 tons. The following are ''^> visitor's QvMt 9^ 1 ■■■■'■.

The Bonsecours Market, on St. Paul and Water Streets, is a magnificent edifice in the Grecian and Doric style ; cost about $300,000 ; has a front of three stories on Water Street, and two stories on St. Paul.; The upper part of the building is occupied for the present, until completion of the new Hall, by the var- ious officers of the city. The City Council Room is fitted up in the most elegant style. In the east wing of the building is a large hall or concert room. The McGill College-7-This is an institution of very high repute. It was founded by the Hon. James McGill, who has bequeathed a valuable estate and ;^i 0,000 for its endowment. The buildings for the Faculty of Arts are delightfully situated at the base of the mountain, and command an extensive view. The Presbyterian College, on McTavish Street, and Commercial Academy, St. Catherine Street, are well worthy of notice. ^ The old Government House, Notre Dame Street, occupied as the Normal School, and the Barracks, as mementos of the past, should not.be omitted. THE WHARVES. The wharves of the city are unsurpassed by any on the American Continent. They are built of wood, 12 ALBION HOTKt y "^ , C Tjn^H ..I PRESBYTERIAN COLLEGE, SJ,g 7t>)nV rrr n MONTREAL, P.

Unlike the levees of the Ohio and Mississippi, no unsightly warehouses disfigure the river side. A broad terrace, faced with grey limestone, the parapets of which are surmounted with a substantial iron railing, divides the City from the river throughout its whole extent.^^^'i ^k k "io vdJiov/ V CHURCHES, &c.'^% ^'' MUd:m . The Cathedral of Notre Dame is said W fed tfie largest in North America, and capable of holding ten thousand people. It is 260 feet long by 140 broad, and the front facing the square is flanked by two massive towers 220 feet in height. In the tower bn the left there is a peal of bells, to one of which is attached the Fire Alarm apparatus. The bell in the other tower goes by the name of "Gros Bourdon." It is said to weigh nearly 30,000 lbs. ; it has a deep bass sound, and is used on extraordinary occasions. The tower on the right can be ascended, on the payment of a small fee, and from" its battlement a most won- derful prospect is obtained— the broad rolling waters of the /St. Lawrence, nearly two miles wide, lying almost at the feet of the beholder, covered with shipping ; to the right the Victoria Bridge, Nuns* Island, the village of Laprairie, with the glittering 14 ALBION HOTEL Steeple ; the boiling rapids of Lachine, the blue hills of Vermont in the far off distance. To the left, the beautiful island of St. Helen's, covered with trees, clothed in the proud prosperity of leaves, the villages of St. Lambert and Longueuil, and the river studded with islands, until its silver course is lost at the village of Verchferes. The English Cathedral (Episcopal) on St. Catherine Street is by far the most perfect specimen of Gothic architecture in America, and is truly worthy of a visit from all Tourists. The whole of this neighborhood is dotted with churches, Roman Catholic, Presbyterian, Wesleyan and Methodist — each vieing with a lofty spire to make the ecclesiastical architecture of the city worthy of comparison with the many public buildings with which Montreal abounds. A new Catholic Cathedral is being erected at the corner of Dorchester and Cathedral Streets, which when completed, will be second only in the world to St. Peter's at Rome, and after the same style of ar- chitecture. The new church of the Jesuits is a very imposing one. The interior is covered with frescoes of incidents in the lives of our Saviour and His apostles, and is considered by many the most beautiful church edifice in America. visitor's guide. 16 ^ St. George's Church, on Windsor Street, St. Patrick, on Alexander Street, Trinity, on St. Denis Street, in fact almost all the churches will repay a visit. Mount Royal Cemetery is situated on the north east side of the mountain, about two miles from the city. Judgment and taste have been displayed in the selec- tion and management of the grounds ; it is much visited by strangers. INSTITUTIONS. The Montreal General Hospital, on Dorchester Street, a most excellent and well managed institution, open to all requiring medical attendance, and in re- spect to the excellence of its management, has no superior in the Dominion. The Hotel Dieu, St. Famille Street, one of the largest Rornan Catholic institutions in the Dominion, comprising Church, Convent, Nunnery, &c. The Grey Nunnery, or correctly LHopiial Central des Sceurs Grises, has recently been built at the comer of Guy and Dorchester Streets. This convent was founded in the year 1775, and receives foundlings, providing for them till the age of 1 2, when they are apprenticed or placed in families. Over 600 found- lings are yearly received, of which not ten per cent survive. It is also an asylum for the aged and infirm. The Protestant House of Industry and Refuge, ^]fi ^^LBION HOTEL U situated on Dorchester Street, near Bleury, is a very praiseworthy institution and has in connection a ladies industrial department, which during the year gives employment to a great number of workers, ^^^jThe Montreal Natural History Society buiiding is . situated on the corner of Cathcart and University ^ Streets, and contains collections of the animals and plants of Canada. It is open to visitors. There is no public gallery of art, but there are several very fine private collections. The Museum of the Dominion Geological Survey, St. Gabriel Street, opposite the Champ de Mars, is well worthy of the attention of those interested in scientific pursuits and in the mineral wealth of the country. It contains the largest palseontological col- [ lection in America, besides specimens of minerals and building materials and everything pertaining to econo- mic geology. It is open to visitors. PLACES OF AMUSEMENT. The Academy of Music situated on Victoria Street, comer St, Catherine, has been newly opened, and is exceedingly well conducted, all its appointments being as perfect as its size permits. t^oJl'be Theatre Royal is on Cote Street, has been re- CCtrtly altered and much improved internally. visitor's guide. q%7 place for Concerts, Lectures, &c., and there is situated at the East End of the Champ de Mars a small ^ Theatre which is generally open as a Variety Theatre. ^^. The Victoria Skating Rink, situated on Drummond Street. This building, 200 feet by 80, famishes a large field of ice free from interruption. Skating Carnivals *^and Masquerades take place frequently in winter, and it is also frequently used as a Concert Hall during the summer. . .^^ A large portion of Mount Royal has recently been Jai<4 out as a public park, and when finished will be second to none on this continent. The views are magnificent. A graded carriage way has been con- structed to the top of the mountain, rendering the -ascent easy and the drive most delightful. Also, as a place of beauty and pleasure, the ride from the City around Mount Royal will attract the traveller at all times. The distance is nine miles, commanding some of the finest yiews of beautiful landscape to be found in North America; and in returning, entering the city, a view of the St. Lawrence and of Montreal, both comprehensive and extended, that well repays time and expense. ^ ^1^^; Next to the drive around the mountain is that on ^tj^pj^ichin^ road^leadm^ to the village qf that napac, 18 ALBION HOTEL nine miles from the city. The road is directly along the banks of the river, presenting scenery of unsur- passed beauty and grandeur. It is a lovely drive. If the proper hour is selected, a view may be had of the descent of the steamer over the rapids. Another favorite drive in the immediate vicinity is to Longue Pointe, being in an opposite direction from the last, along the banks of the river. At this place a large Lunatic Asylum has lately been erected. It would be usless to undertake an enumeration of all the places of interest in and about Montreal, for we believe that there are but few places on the Ameri- can Continent where can be found so much of interest to the traveller, whether in pursuit of health or pleasure, as in this city. Water Works. — ^The water comes from the St, Law- rence a mile and a half above the Lachine Rapids where the elevation of the river surface is 37 feet above the harbour of Montreal. The wheel house at the termination of the aqueduct is worthy of notice. The water is admitted to and discharged from this building through submerged archways, under covered frost proof passages, extending above and below the building. The pumping machinery consists of two iron wheels 20 feet in diameter and 20 feet broad. These wheels are upon the suspension principles, "high breast," or "pitch back," with ventilated visitor's ouidi. 19 buckets. To these have latterly been added a power- ful turbine wheel, and two auxilliary steam engines, the whole being capable of raising about 20,000,000 gallons of water in twenty-four hours. The reservoirs, which are situated on the side of the mountain, are excavated out of the solid rock, and have a water sur- face of over 90,000 square feet, 206 feet above the harbor with a depth of 25 feet. The length is 623 feet with a breadth of 173, formed into two reservoirs by a division wall. The two contain about 25,000,000 gallons. The enlargement of these is in progress, by which the water storage will be increased to over 40,000,000 gallons. A Fire Alarm Telegraph has been erected, and proves a great success. The chief office is in the City Hall, from which it connects with 84 boxes, the church bells, several public clocks, the observatory and Water Works near McGill College. Montreal possesses many other attractions, but in a Guide Book like the present we cannot presume to give full particulars. We Jiave, however, endeavored in as little space as possible, and in as concise a form so as not to weary the reader, to direct his attention to those most prominent, . For a while we will call off from the busy city to the Rapids of the St. Lawrence. 29 ALBION HOTEL BAPU^S OP THE ST.

'Iroquois, eight miles further, is a steamboat landing on the Canada side of the river. . v. Waddington, on the American shore, eighteen miles below Ogdensburgh, lies opposite Ogden's Island, which is passed to the right. Here commences Rapid du Plat, and extends about two and a half miles. Morrisburgh, seven miles below Matilda, is a re- giilar steamboat laiidiiig. \ ; ;V V^ t^^J!^"^ ; Louisville landing, twenty-eight nailes below Og- densburgh, is where passengers leave for Messena Springs, six miles distant by stage — a great resort for invalids during the warm weather. The Long Sault Rat>id, extending frotn Dickinson's Landing, forty- miles below Prescott, to Cornwall on the Canada side, ■ is one of the longest and most important rapids of the St Lawrence. ^ ti^i^^^ ^^ uc^ The Cornwall Canal commences about ninety miles abov6 Moiitteal. It extends to Cornwall, eleven and a half miles, overcoming forty-eight feet descent in the St. Lawrence. TDSITOR'S GtriDl. jf Cornwall, one hundred and twenty miles from Kingston, and eighty miles above Montreal, situated near the foot of the Cornwall or St. Lawrence Canal. This is a regular steamboat landing for American and British steamers. * i .j^ sm Lake St. Francis is a magnificent expaiisfoh of the St. Lawrence above Coteau du Lac, extending thirty- six miles. It is studded with picturesque Islands. The Indian Village of St. Regis, and an Island owned by the Natives, lie near its upper termination. At Coteau du Lac, 50 miles (by water) above Montreal, commences a rapid of the same name, ex-^ tending above two miles. ' . Seven miles below this commences the Cedar Rapid, which extends about three miles. Then comes Coteau, Cedar, Split Rock, and Cascade Rapids, which terminate a^ the head of Lake St Louis, where the dark waters of the Ottawa by one of its mouths, join the St. Lawrence. These rapids in eleven miles have a descent of 82J feet '^^'' ^^' ''^'''^'' Beauhamois is at the foot of the Cascade Rapids, at the termination of the Beauhamois Canal, twelve miles in length. ^^^^^^^ Caughnawaga, opposite Lachine, is an Indian village numbering several hundred inhabitants. Lachine, eight miles by land (double that distanci^ by water,) above Montreal, situated on Lake St. Louis, 22 ALSTON HOTEL where enter the black waters of the Ottawa River, St. Lawrence presenting a greenish hue. The Lachine Rapids, a few miles above Montreal, are the last rapids of any importance that occur on the St. Lawrence. They are now considered the most dangerous and difficult of navigation. They are ob- viated by the Lachine canal, 8J miles in length, over- coming a descent of 44J feet. And now the traveller comes to the last wonder of the present age, namely, the Victoria Bridge, spanning the noble St. Lawrence River, two miles long, the longest and largest bridge in the world, after which the delighted traveller comes in full view of the city of Montreal, the most prominent object being the two towers of the Church of Notre Dame. THE THOUSAND ISLANDS. are amongst the wonders of the St. Lawrence, situated about six miles below Kingston. There are in fact no less than 1,800 of these " emerald gems in the ring of the wave," of all sizes, from the islet a few yards square to miles in length. It is a famous spot for sporting ; myriads of wild fowl of all descriptions may here be found ; and angling is rather fatiguing than otherwise, from the great quantity and size of the fish. These Islands, too, have been the scene of most ex- -v- visitor's ouidb' ^citing romance. From their great number, and the labyrinth-like channels among them, they afforded an admirable retreat for tJie insurgents in the last Cana- dian insurrection, and for the American sympathizers with them, who under the questionable name of ** patriots," sought only to embarrass the British Government. Among these was one maa, who, from his daring and ability, became an object of anxious pursuit to the Canadian authorities ; and he found a safe asylum in these watery intricacies, through the de- votedness and courage of his daughter, whose inimit- able management of her canoe was such, that through hosts of pursuers she baffled their efforts at capture, while she supplied him with provisions in these solitary retreats, rowing him from one place of concealment to another, under the shadow of the night. But, in truth all the Islands which are so numerously studded through the whole chain of those magnificent Lakes, abound with materials for romance and poetry. For instance, in the Manitoulin Islands, in Lake Huron, the Indians believe that the Manitou^ that is, the Great Spirit^ (and hence the name of the Islands), has forbidden his children to seek for gold ; and they tell you that a certain point, where it is reported to exist in large quantities, has never been visited by the dis- obedient Indian, without his canoe being overwhelmed in a tempest. 24 -ALBION HOTXI« BliSCEI^T OF THE RAPIDS. iiiijyjiyi- .4Ji-:i I _{' J j..f BfiThis is the most exciting part of the whole passage of the St. Lawrence. The rapids of the " Long Sault'* rush along ata rate of something like twenty miles an hour. When the vessel enters within their influence the steam is shut off and she is carried onwards by the force of the stream alone. The surging waters present all the angry appearance of the ocean in a storm ; the noble boat strains and labors ; but unlike the ordinary pitching and tossing at sea, this going down hill by water produces a highly novel sensation, and is, in fact, a service of some danger, the imminence of which is enhanced to the imagination by the tremendous roar of the headlong boiling current. Great nerve, and force, and precision are here required in piloting, so as to keep the vessel's head straight with the course of the rapid ; for if she diverges in the least, presenting her side to the current, or " broached to," as the nau- tical phrase is, she would be instantly run aground. Hence the necessity of enormous power over her rudder ; and for this purpose the mode of steering affords gi^eat facility, for the wheel that governs the rudder is placed ahead, and by means of chain and pulley sways it. But in descending the rapids, a tiller is plkc^d astern to the rudder itself, so that die tiUer can be manned as well as the wheel. Some tibitob's quids. 25 4 idea may be entertained of the peril of descending a rapid, when it requires four men at the wheel and two ,^t the tiller to ensure safe steering. Here is the rq^on of the daring raftsmen, at whose hand are de- manded infinite courage and skill ; there is, however^ kut little danger to life. The Canadian Navigation G)mpany have never lost any lives by accidents of thSs kind in descending the rapids; ; • ' \ ST. LAWBENCE CANALS^ m. -^BBn The St. i^awrence Canals were designed for paddle*^ steamers, but from the magnitude of the rapids and their inclination the aid of the locks is not required in descending the river. Large steamers, drawing seven feet water, with passengers and mails, leave the foot of Lake Ontario in the morning, and reach the wharves of Montreal by daylight, without passing through a single lodk. At some of the raipids there are obstac^e's preventing the descent of deeply laden craft ;" but the Government are about to give the main channel in all th^ rapids a depth of ten f^et water, "v^hen the whole descending trade, by steam, will keep the river, leaving the c^ak to ascending craft. /:* ,'9l' oi.;r:rNf ■ k tl l ^"C^n'^i ^ ■ ■' --A'^: , ..t«i^i|ptl*i0l Cff^f' ' tow aniiiifii df im noiMrj .Ki liofi 26 ALBION BOTSL Miles.
