But he belieTes that the facts and figures presented in the following pages will do something towards placing th« Manufactures of New Brimswiok in their true position, and stimulating the ambitions of an alread.y enterprising people, which are the main objects of the work, and he trusts that in view of this any minor defects will be overlooked. He cannot close Uiese remarks, however, without complimenting his printers, Messrs. H. Ohvbb & Co., upon the remarkable rapidity with which the work has been pushed through by them, and the careful manner ic which every detail has been car- ried out. IBA COBNWALIs Jr., St. John, K.

Prize List ever issued in this Province, and the hasty manner m which the work had to be performed, it is net to be wondered at that some errors and omissions have occurred. The managers of the Exhibition, however, will be prepared to avoid any dissati^action by gving diplomas, where merited, to any manufactured articles not enumerated in the italogue. All such articles will be classed in the section to which they most nearly correspond. 3STOmOBl- AU Railroad and Steamboat lines to St. John, will convey goods to the M. & M, Exhibition at the regular freight charges and return them free, provided they do not ehaiwe hands, to be shown by certificate from the Secretary to that effect. Thev will also issuiB ExomuioN Bbtubn Ticksts from all points to St John, commencing Sep. 25th t^ to the 90th, good to return until and including Monday October 4th. The Secretary wUl furnish certificates by which Exhibitors may obtain return tickets, good for a reasonable time, before and after the above dates. ''./ve ». B.

Yet tlii?* was no', the liilicy of E;ijjlan 1 yewn as"*, wlinn 1>risk c omjicti- tion might have cni)i)led many of Iver industries. This was njt the policj- that niised her to her present proud eminence above all the manufacturing nations of the earth. In those days the most rigid exclusiveness was as vigorously advocated, and to that system she is largely indebted for iier present position as " the workshop of the world." Since, however, by i-eason of enormous natural resources, immense capital, elaborate machinery, and unexampled cheapness of labour, she can now defy any nation to sup- lily manufactured goods at eipially low prices. Free Trade (which, under these cir- cumstances, means nothing less than the opening of all foreign nwrkets to a monopoly for Kngiish numufacturers) h«s become poi»ular. If, then, protection was formerly necessary to develojie tlie industries of England, how much more do ours now need this aid, when the competition is so much greater I-' As long as foreign manufacturers are allowed to glut our market with materials which their capita! and immense trade eimble them to jiroduce cheaper, it is in vain 1o expect our consumers to jiny a higher price for an article of home production. Itrsonly by a protective tariff, which shall make foreign jiroducts as costly as our ■ )wn, that our manufacturing industries can be temporarily encouraged, and ultimately enabled to supply home and otiier markets with l)etter and cheai>er goods tlian those now imi)orted. l''or an instance of the stimulating effect a limitation of sujiply has on native indus- try, it is only necessary to revert to the state of our manufactures before and since the war of the Union. While that struggle was going on in the adjoining Re|)ublic many things formerly imi)orted from the States could no longer be jirofitably obtained in that (puxrter, especially after the repeal of the Reciprocity Treaty. The immediate consequence was a temporary increase in the price of certain commodities; the ultimute residt is seen in the present flourishing condition of many a manufacture in our miJlst. So it is ever with a protective tariff, if there exist facilities for home production. Restriction may make an article more expensive for the time being, but who tliat loves his country will com- plain at this temporary inconvenience, wlien he knows, that the factories arising in his native land, under such a protective system, will in a few years give employment to a vast amount of labour, supply us with many of the necessaries and conveniences rif life cheajier than foreign makers, and give ua the means wherewith to purchase from abroad what we do not produce at fiome. There are other ways of encouraging manufacturing enterprise such as that which obtains in Ontario, where the Government and townships grant a bonus, and exemp- tion from taxation, to factories recently established. What a stimulus to found new industries, w.mhl such action here give; yet, unfortunately, we suffer all the evils of an exactly opposite treatment. One way then, by which the Manufacturers' and Jleclianics' Association may jironiote the industrial interest of the Province, is by endearouring to secure judicious legislation in relation to all such matters, -nd. This Association has a beneficial effect on the maimfactures of the country, by affording from time to time an opportunity for a " free interchange tjf views and a mutual understanding of each others' interests and recpiirements" with regard to labour, wages, apprenticeships, and other topics of importance to manufacturers and master- mechanics. The wages of labour must of course be drawn from the produce of that labour ; and whenever through over remuneration of the workmen, the cost of production is ren- dered greater than the m irket value of the commxlity, manufacture must cease. It is therefore clearly advantageous for manufacturers to have an understanding between 7- 24 S. R. FOSTER & SON, Manufacturers of GliT MILS AHD SPIKES.

B. 25 S, themselves, in order that by competition they shull not vnisf the i)ro[)artionale rate of wages given in each employment above the actual worth of the labour. Such an ar- rangement instead of being oppressive to the employed, is really essential to their con- tinued well-being, for when the demand for liigli wages exceeds the possibilitiesof pro- fltahie manufacture, discontinuance of the industry any the hope of saving something for a rainy day, finds in the bettering of his own conditioji incentives to sobriety, dilligeuce and activity. The other, ill-fed, sickly, and ignorant, buoyed up by no hope of improvement or rest in tliis life, goes through the daily task with something of the same spirit, as a brokun down horse treading his monottflious round in the brick-yard mill. There can be little doubt that, where an interest is dis- l)layed in the physical, moral and intellectual welfare of the operatives, couided with liberal wages, and where, at the same time, tlie workmen are made to comiirehend that anything beyond fair remuneration must endanger the suceees of the enterprise, in which both employee and employer are mutually engaged, mannfactui'e prospers, and strikes, which are so ruinous to the industries of a country, are almost unknown. An- other matter of common interest to manufacturers, is tlie establishment of some guitr- anteed system of apprenticeship. Of course the man, who has for a period of time, and at some exjiense, devoted himself to tin ac fv.'^ternity as the ^f. vt M. Association could not be ti o liighly esteemed. .'trd. The combined influence of siicli an Ass:iciation, may Ijring the isolated manufac- turers of the Province into more pn minen^ notice, and divert some of the enormous amount of capital and labour, now emjjloyc'! in himber sptculations, into the dnrnels f more iirofltable and i eruianeut iiu'.ustries. When the jn-oduce of any brancii of industry txce^nlsthe (.ffectiuil dtniiind, tlir mnrl-f-f prin- must fall below th • ion' cdluc, mid the produc 'r in conseciuence suiters loss. In the lumber trade, however, the qiiaiitity of tiuiber produced, depends greatly on whether the season is fav» ivd)le for choppinj;, hauling, stream driving, $k.: the same number of men therefore, will icnl t) th > market very different (pinntities of lumber, in different years, ilennwhile the effectual denianl ftr lumber all over the world, averages about the same, one year with another. C )n5efpiently at the close of Avliat has seenud a very iit'osperon-; season, the enornDus export from all tlie great lumber countries, gluts the market, the prices fall, and those whose transiictions are the largest, r.re at once iuvclv.d in tie heaviest losses.

No one can help feeling proud of the number of nourishing factories already in ope- ration in our I'roA ince, wliidi lutve attained to their present prosperous conditifui in spite of nniny adverse eircuuisiances, and without being fostered, or protected, in any way. At the Manufacturer's Convetition held last .January, it was shown by a Committee which the Association had appointed for the purpose of ascertaining facts, "that St. .lohn City and County «/awe had <'>14 nuinufacturing establishments, which enijiloy n,r»l." hands, and jmy wages to the amount of S'5,''$I'S,87-1 annually ; and that our manufactur- ing interests have doubled during the past five years." These industries end)race tlie production of a remarkable variety of materials, nnd we are continually becoming more and more indej)endent. Tl^Acjcording to the third volume of the census " yew liruHincick had, in 1870, Sr).",17(),17(i invested in niiinufacturing industries, employing 18,.T.'t2 hands, paying ^."JjS^M^ytJO wages, working up S'.),431,7(U) of raw material, ami turning out goods to the value of .$l7,y(>7,C>87 — showing a clear profit of nearly eigiit millions of dollars on an investment of less than six millions." Yet gratifying as this exhibit is, it gives no adequate idea of the ^^rpww^ condition of our industries. The advance since then has been continual nnd rapid ; establishments have been enlarged, steam-power and improved machinery has been introduced where not formerly in use, while many altogether new industries have been eommencey the attention of tlie Association. These competitions af skill, industry, nnd intelligence, nre certainly productive of much good. They are a most poi)ular way of diffusing; a knowledge of arts and pro- cesses, whih they at the same time lu'oniote the improvement of these by encouraging comi)etition between rival manufacturers. The benelicial inlluence that Agricultural Shows have exerted in improving farm stock, and implements of liusl)andry, cannot be over-estimated; but still more important if possible, is the imiiulse to improvement and activity which manufacturers receive from industrial exhibitions. The comparison of all recent improvements displayed side by side, cannot fail to inaugurate fresh pro- gress and suggest new devices to rellectiv(> minds, while the distinction gained by merit must stimulate the energies of all. The first Exhibition held under the ausjiices of this Association will be opeiu^d in St. •lohn, on the 27th of September. Particular reference is made to this in another place, and we doubt not it will mark the beginning oi a new advancement in our industrial progress. Such are a few of the good influences tluit tlie Manufacturers* and ifechanics' Asso- ciation will be able to exert. Doubtless, many more ways of promoting our industrial interests will occur to the manufacturers themselves than an outsider can possibly think of. We feel sure, how- ever, that an organization which has for its object tlie atlvancoment and welfare of the whole country, no lese than that of the manufacturing community, must cem mend itself to the symi)athies and support of every thinking man. . . , ,i ■S> \ TO MAKE BUSINESS.

In short, except in tliii, with wliich the Uniteil States can never coniiicto ■\vith us, we art- nowhere. Let us take one other fact, more striking still, to show the charncter and extent of an exjwrt trade we have given over all but entirely to our neighbours. In 1870 the port of New York alone exixn-ted to Cuba articles to the value of 89,001,498; to llayti, ^l,072,7i')8; to other West Indies, 80,500,383 ; while to British (iuiana it sent goods worth $1,090,782; and to other ports of South America, Sll,8i»6,9'29; or in all, very nearly thirty millions of dollars. While New York did thus, in 1870, a very extensive export business with the West Indies and South America, what share had Canada in tiio same enterprise during the succeeding year, when the whole trade was consider- nbly increased ? Ontario did business to the extent of $11,492: (Quebec, 8701,551 ; Nova Scotia, of course, did better, chiefly in fish. She sent to those countries goods to the value of .'83,399,718. Yet the account is a beggarly one — not one-tenth of what was sent from New Yorkj while two-thirds of what was sent was flsh, which ia to be looked on as a sjiecialty in any case. New Brunswick's trade to those regions amounted to $881,- 019. This gives a grand total of $4,993,780 for all Canada, while New York alone, in aacurate figures, sent to the same countries goods to the value of S29,5'2'2,350, with no tish whatever, or none worth mentioning. When we come to particulars, however, we are still more astonished that we sliouKl have allowed so large a trade with our fellow-subjects, and in the vei'y articles we sjiccially need a market for, to remain almost entirely in the hands of our commercial rivals. fiarba■> '> In all of which Canada is nil or next to it. Not only these; there is a great variety of other things sent to these Barbatlians, such as finniiture, carnages, nudes, horses, &c. And what return cargoes come from Barbadoes ? Chiefly molasses, to the extent of about 15,000 puncheons; while , we in Ontario during 1871-2 imported direct some 8000 worth of that article, and received all the rest from the States and Quebec, while «ven in (Juebec much more was brought from the States than directly from the West Indies.

(ice,, as the same cla.ss in Nova Scut la do. The modern tendency, however, is nioro and more to Iiave thf busint.'ss doiu' by stoani. A.l Ica.-t a line of steamers carrying the mails is tJit; lirst thing to be arranged. .\ regular nuiil line runs already out-v a month from Xew York for St. Thomas and Brazil, but that does not fully subserve Canadian comnuivi.,! jHirposes. As far as trade is concerind, it may be said to do altogether the \ery n;- vevse. We are acoirdiugly glad to umlerstand that in tln' event of the Canadian (iov- ernment granting a reasonable [lostal subsidy for a term 1 years (and tu develop such • a trade this is indisjiensably necessary), reliable [lartii - in Montreal are prejiared to j)ut on lirst-class ocean steamboats for a monthly serv ice lietween .Montreal in summer and llalil'a.v in winter, as the one terminus, and British tluiana as the utlier, calliiig at I'ietou, -Vew Y(jrk, St. Thomas and IJarbadoes f.r freight and imssengers, both going and coming. As the I'. S. steamer leaves on tin '.'rd of every month in order to catch one of the bi-monthly steamers for Southampton .it St. Thomas, it would be ii.-cessary that the proposed Canadian packet should leave liuebec during summer, about the .'Jrd of each month, and Halifax or St. John, in the winter, about the Hth, gi'tling b.ick to • inebec about the llth, and to Halifax in winter about the 7th. In this way, with tliu United States monthly nn\il to St. Thomas, there would be a fortnightly comnumication with all the different points of business, for of course Canadian ami L'nit(>d States cor- respondence would lie carried by both lines. Besiiles, steamers rim from the Slates to Havana three times a mouth, and to Jamaica, the IJahamas, and JJernuula always once, a month, and occasionally once a fortnight. That such a line of Cana,0(;o barrels of Hour and from fifty to sixty first-class passengers, would very speedily have far more business than a monthly boat could o\ertake, we have no doubt whatevor. A wise liberality and prompt action in connection with the movement on the part of ihe (iov- ernment, will be found to be the truest economy. Of course, becoming prudence has to be exercised, so that while the tubsidy is liberal it shall not bo excessive, and so that all due gu.arantecs be taken to have t'le ternu of the contract carried fully and fairly out; but with such a trade as wc have indicated waiting to bf taken up, and offering such advantages to Canada and Canadians, it would be short-sighted in the extreme to allow a single season to pass withont putting matters in train for the .«pceily and eflV'c- tual opening np of what gives every promise of becoming, at no distant day, a most in- viting and extensive Held for the commercial operations of- Cana 3-- *j — 1- 1-: ■;is 61 • •£ t o •.r"~'£:i • CI .

The lir.st of these lii- ilustrial displays ever orj^aiiized (as far a-< we can h-arn) was one hehl in a ]iavilii>n in tile Champ de :Ntar3 dni'inn; tlie first Republic, as far back as the year ITt'H, and strau;^e til say tills l-^xhibition originated not at all with that desire to jn'oniote universal peace and prosperity, which now characterizes such undertakings. This aiti)ears from the following extract from the circular of the French .Minister of the Interior, after tho closing of the Kxhihition of IT'.''""*: "The ivxliibition has not been numerous, but it is a lirst cami)aign, and tliis campaign has been disastrous to ihiglish industry." Several Exhibitions were afterwards held in France, liotb under the Repul)lic and after tlie Kestoration, the one of 1819 being l!ie latest National Exliibitiou previous to the introduction of the universal Exiubitions of the jn-esent day, commencing with that of l.ondon in 1851, followed i)y that of Paris, IS.Vi, r.ondon, 1802, Faris, ISt)7, Vi- i^ima, 1873, and finally that now prcpariug to !k' held iu Fbiladelphia in 187(», While, however, the great International Exhibitions are expensive luxuries not to be nidertaken more than once in live years, or so, the bcnelits derived from these compe- litiims of intellect and industry iiave l)een so manifest that the ohl French system of Exhibitions has extended into every land, and niiiub;>rloss eiitirprising Frovinces and cities have felt the stimulating inliuencc which these friendly contests have exerted on their native industries. Here in New Brunswick we have liad not a few which have been productive of much good; but we thirik it is not too inucli to pre- dict that the Manufacturers' and Mechanics' Exhibition, wliicli is to 1>e opened in St. John, on the 'J7th of September, will jirove a better organized, more purely industrial, and, therefore, more advantageous Exhibition to our nianufactui'ers than any hitherto held.

The lievieic concludes by .'aying:-'- \\'e devote a large si»ace this month to iid'orma- lion regarding this Exhibition, and consider too much importance cannot be attaohelied for double the si)ace granted originally, and it is not improbable that other na- tions will do the same. From the great interest taken, it is certain that there will lie alai'ge number]of visitors attracted by tlu' op])ortunity given, not only to view the Kx- hibition, but also to travel tlirough the country. Foreign Manufacturers will put fortli their best effort^ to secure the awards that will be offered, and thus we shall see the tinest specimens ever brought together in the World. In Fine Arts it is fully exi)ected that the Exhibition will be truly miignitieent, and that we may have the privilege of beholding some of the best works of the Old Clusters, and this fact alone should secure the attendance of thousands of visitors. Europeans will be afforded every facility for reaching this country in safety and comfort, early in the coming year ; ex- tra steamers will be added to the ah\'a(ly i)oi)ular American line ; and in addition to the present points of departure there will be s'.eam'rs to Philadelphia from Havre, Hamburg, and (lenoa. The estimates of the niunber of foreign visitors that maybe expected varies from thirty to one hundred thous md, reipiiring in the latter case a tieet of not less than one hundred and fity first-class steamers. Most complete arrange- ments for the c(mifort and care of firndgii visitors are now being affected under the experienced supervision of Mr. Jenkins, of the well-known firm of Cook, Son >.^- Jenk- ins, of London, Paris, New York and Philadeli>hla. As is well-known, these gentlemen have had charge of the visitors to all former Kxhibitions, ami in London loilged jj^cto thoimaud on one occasion all on the same night. Forei;;ners coming via New York will find every possible arrangement made for the rai)id transit over the Pennsylvania Railroad, trains running through in two hours and arriving on the grounds of the Ex- hibition. Visitoi-s from (Jhina, Japan, Australia and the islands of the Pacific, landing at San Francisco, will arrive without change of cars at the same terminus, and goods for exhibition will be delivered with less handling than at any former International Exhibitiiin. From all these facts it woidd appear that the Foreign departuient of the Exhibition would be most complete and attractive. The buildings of the C^'Utennial cover a far largn- area tinn those of any former Ex- i. ■ . . ■ ■ • ^i lallv.;'' 72 CENTRAL HOUSE Boapding^ Sale and Livefy Sfables, THOMSON & McMACKIN, S/.

Tliis was very well in its way, but as ^[ftchinerj- and Fine Arts were all in the same building, lliere were many drawbacks. At Vienna the arranyvment was mucli siuiplilii'd, being ev, .graph ical only. At Pliila- deli^hia the Departments of Cla^isitication will be ])lac(Ml in parallel section* running lengthwise of the building, from mat to west, and will be wider or narrower in i)ropor- tion to the bulk of the articles exldbited. The countries \\ ill be located geographically in sections, running crosswise of the buibling, from norlli to south. Then in additiim, there will be the different bui!. lings for madiinery, agriculture, vSrc, &c. .Tust what our local Hxhibitioi- Is to the ijidividual the International is to the Pro- vince, and we trust our Manufacturers will not let these gulden opportunities pass for promoting their own and their country's welfare. )n- r> \ -..v.-^y .Hi V.

It is a salesman who never sleeps, and is never weary ; who Koes after tiuaineas late and early ; who accosts all Business Men in their Stores, the Scholar in his Study, the Lawyer in his Office ; who can be in hun- dreds of places at once, and speak to tt ousands of persons, saying to each one the best thing in the best manner. A good advei'ti'^ennent insures « busi- ness connection of the most permanent and independent Ija^is, and it iH in a cer- tain sense a guai'antee to the cuftonner of fair and moderate prices.

This magnitlcent i)leasure ground, containing nearly n,f)00 acres, is three times as large as the famous Central Park of ^'e^v York, and oidy because it is new, and not yet widely known, has it not attained a reputation equal to that of any other Park in the world. Says " Pliiladeli)hia and its Knvirons :''* " Fairmont Park needs no eulogist. It speaks for itself; and the stranger who will speml a summer day- or better still, a week — in a leisurely ami appreciative exploration of its hills and dales, its leafy wood- lands and sunny slopes, its rippling streams and placid river, its dewy sunrise and dreamj' sunset, and the glory of its moonlight vistas, will permit no tongue to sound its praises louder than his own." The Park is traversed throughout its entire length by the lovely Kiver Schuylkill, and is thus divided into two j)ortions, caJled for conveniejice, the East and West Parks. " Mutttring the East Park at the lower entrance, we step at once into the grounds per- taining to the Schuylkill Water Works." " Enormous engines worked by water-power, force water from a dam in the river to tlie top of a hill in front of the building — the original ' Fairemount ' — where it is held in a distributing reservoir." " The grounds immediately suri'ounding tlie buildings of the Water Works contain several fountains and pieces of statuaiy." Other points of interest on this sido are, the' bronze statute of Lincoln erected in 1871 ; the romantic Lemon Hill so full of historical associations; thf new distril)uting reservoir, covering one hundred and live acres; and away to the northern extremity the Laurel IliU Cemetry, wliose extensive and finely situateil grounds coujjled with the taste, eleganc-e and muiiitiet^nce displayed in their adorn- lut-nt, render it the most attractive of the many beautiful Cemetries in Phihideli)Iua. Setting out from the same point as at first, entrance is gained to tlu' West Park by crossing the Oirard Avemie Bridge, an elegant iron structure UK) feet long by 1(K) feet wide. Immediately below the bridge on the West side, is a tract calleil " Solitude," consisting of thirty-three .acres, which contains a well-stocked, flourishing, ami cou- .stantly increasing Zoological Garden. *A oompleto and beautifully llluitratod Gu'de-Iiook, publlslied ai the small prioe of U ty ceau, by J- n.

All that remains of the bluff is an occasional flight of stairs leading ui from Water to Front str.-ei. Arch street was sunk so low in a ravine that Front stree crossed it by an arclied bridge, whence it derived its name: but bridge and ravine ar< both gone now. So is the Duck Fond at Fourth and Market, into which the tide tlowe.i and in which boys caught ti-sli that hud found their way there from the Dehiware; and so is Fegg's Run, once a «onsiderable stream running from a spring in Sjiring Garden street, near Sixth (whence the name of the former), through a marsh, to its junction witli tlM> Delaware, in the neighborliood of Noble street.

This conveyance was drawn by two horses, for a mail stage between Kingston and St. John, that road i)eing the first can'iage drive out of the city. In 1820, one Peterson commenced to manufacture carriages as a trade, and was soon followed by Samuel Slcinner in Ridler's Alley. Other factories arose in time, but it was not not until 18.')4 tliat steam was applied to the industry. This stroke of enter- prise was due to the efforts of Jeremiah Harrison, of Portland. Two years later, Messrs, Crothers, Price & Sliaw, began to employ steam in their establishment, and since then the business has continued to rtourish, every year finding an increased d»i- mand for carriages of native manufacture. There are now 10 carriage and sleigh manufactories in the city and suburbs, giving employment to about 120 mechanics, with a yearly expenditure for wages of over $1:3,580. The raw material used is of the. value of at least S-4(J,(X)0, and when manufactured amounts to over $112,0f material produce between .$10,000 and Si 1,000 worth of .«tock, A large number of men are engaged during the winter months in the manufacture of fish barrels.

It is now as- suming good projjortioas, tiiere being nine shops, employing about 03 workmen, wIki receive nearly $2ti,208 for annual wages.

On this lot he erected one of the rude houses of those days, with a shop attached, and carried on fur trading and the manufacture of hats.

The matter of cheap labor may also be tiummarily dis- missed, for although labor in St. John cannot be truly called cheap, it does not differ materially in that respect from other towns in Canada. Cheap fuel, however, we have beyond any other city in Canada. Our own coal mines and those of Nova Scotia f uruisli us with an abundant supply of fuel at a low rate and at all times accessible. No city in the Upper Provinces can ever compete with us in this particular. The sea, also, while it gives us the cheaiiest and readiest means of bringing fuel to our factories is equally available for the carriage of raw material. On this broad and universal highway what- ever we want can be bronglit to us with the greatest facility and the greatest dispatch, whether it be cotton from the South, .sugar from the West Indies, or the products of eastern climes. Our unrivalled position on the seabord, within easy reach of all count- ries that can be ai)proached by water, gives us an enormous advantage with respect to manufacturing. The only remaining element which remains to be discussed, the jjos- session of facilities for the distribution of manufactured goods, we do not yet possess in as ample degree as is desimble, and this alone has retarded our manufacturing indus- tviws. But our position in this respect is rapidly improving and in a very few years will be such as to leave nothing more to be desiired, for St. John is rapidly becoming a great railway centre and adding yearly to the extent of country which must become tributary to it. It is consideraltly less than twenty years ago .since the tirst locomotive was seen in St. John, and it is only about fifteen years .since the line to Shediac was opened for traffic. Yet already we have a railway communicati'.^Ji wiih Halifax, Pictou, Frederic- ton, Woodstock, St. Andrews, St. Stephen, Bangor, Boston, and evciy other town of any size in the United States. We are now able to reach Montreal and (Juebec via the European and North American Railway and the Grand Trunk, and this yeer we will be able to reach these cities and likewise Miramichi, Bathurst, Dalhousie and Campbeil- town by the Intercolonial. Nor is this all. By the Lake Megantic Railroad, which is now under construction, St. John will be brought within 4 W miles of Montreal and 77'! «if Toronto. This will give us, what we mainly want at present, swift and ready means *)f access to the great cities of the Upper Provinces and the large centres of popula- tion. When we have that, as we soon will have, there will bo no reason why St. John flliould not manufacture more largely than any other town in Canada, and send the products of her looms, her foundries and her workshops all through that great western country from which we have hitherto beea cut off by natural barriers. We siiall in- dulge in no vain boasts, but those who live to see St. John ten years hence will see such x;i increase of manufactures as we q.\\\ i:ow scarcely conceive possibje.and which would not be ))03sible, but for the si)Iendid means of coninuiiiication willi the rt'Pt of Canada wliicli it will tlien poss'^ss. ■) K.'-'-i^' iSt! ,,.., I t i 140 -• . > ■ •( /■ilt'f-* ^m>M^> , AVoujcI ri'Npccliully call the attention : • OF Till- RESIDENTS AND TRAVELLING PUBLIC OP ST. .rony AM) yii isn v T(t H18 i.AUUK ANi) W]*I,I, sKl.iXTKC ST< -CK ('l' CLOTHS N srir,M;!.K ;■■<.]!
