 THE SPLCNDID STEAMERS OF THIS SERVICE SAIL 
 
 WEEKLY FROM 
 
 LIVERPOOL and MONTREAL 
 
 Leaving Liverpool every Thursday and Montreal every Satur- 
 day during the season of Navigation, and to and from Halifax and 
 Portland in the Winter. 
 
 The accommodation for all classes of passengers is unsurpassed. The 
 Saloons and State Rooms are situated amidships where least motion is felt. 
 Electric lighting is used throughout the Ships and the various rooms are in 
 communication with the Steward's pantry by electric bells. 
 
 Promenade deck for the exclusive use of cabin passengers, extends the 
 entire width and two-thirds the length of the Steamers in the central portion 
 of the Vessels. 
 
 The Ships are built with all the improvements in marine engineering, and 
 are fitted with bilge keels which minimises rolling and makes them the steadiest 
 vessels on the Atlantic. 
 
 The rates of passage are as low as by any first-class line, round trip cabin 
 tickets ranging from $100 upwards. Return tickets are also good returning by 
 the Glasgow-New York service, the Allan State Line.

 SPECIALTIES. 
 
 High grade Bessemer iron ores. LOW GRADE GOLD ORES. 
 
 Canada is ricli in economic minerals. IK) miles eastlof Toronto is a large deposit of 
 maKiielic iron ore suited to make the hit,'liost grades of tool steel, beiog rich in iron and 
 very free from impurities. IiiLo this Helmont mine a Railway has been liiiilt w hich con- 
 nects with The Canadian Paciflc Railway and The Central Ontario Railway, giving easy 
 access to Lake Ontario, whence the ore can be shipped to any point on the great lakes. 
 Adjoining the Relmont iron mines is tlic property of the Ledyard Gold Mines Co., (Ltd.), 
 on which are several veins of quartz containing free gold and auriferous pyrites, 011 
 which considerable development work has been done. Those mines can be reached by all 
 il route, in about five hours from Toronto.

 dominate on the surface. A conservativf! estimate of I he production of this di-irici for

 The city of Toronto has often hccn selected as tlie ineetini; 
 place (.f inrei'national coincntions (,n account of its accessibil- 
 ity l)y land and water, its situation in a, liiirlily developed and 
 well settled agricultural re-ion, its iinportiuice as a coinniercial 
 and industrial centre, and its comparative coolness in .suniiner. 
 To the tourist it orters the advantaj,^. of hein;,' an extremely 
 convenient ceiitiv from which to make excursions either in 
 Canada or tlit! United States. 
 
 It is inteixled in this pie liminaiT proi^Mvimme t(.t;ivean out 
 line of what the memhers of the Uritish Association may ex 
 pect to find interesting in the Dominii.n, and to indicat/' the 
 arrangements which are in pro-ress for th.^ir reception. 
 
 The meeting of the ilritish Association at Toronto is ex- 
 pected to he lield from the |8tli to the 27th of August, 
 1897. While it would I... possihl.. t.. reach Toronto in lime 
 for the meeting l,y .sailing eight days prior to the ISth of 
 August, the intending visitor would do well to leave amplei' 
 time for the journey. J5y doing ,so he will he ahl<. to take 
 advantage of the numerous excui-sions which will l)e arranged 
 for during the weeks immediatcsly preceding the meet- 
 ing, or to visit parts of Canada or of the United States 
 in which he may he .specially interested. July and August 
 are pleasant months in which to cross the Ocean. J f arrange- 
 ments can be made to spend September in Canada, the forest 
 scenery and the clear and somewhat pungent atmosphere of 
 the early fall will atlbrd a series of fresh experiences to the

 The (lisiaiiee from Kiiifhuid to Canada nee<l not now he a Tin- 
 serious ohstach'. for duriii;,' r.H-ent years the nund.er of (hiys jl''''"?. , 
 occupied by the ocean voyage has heeii materially rediuvd, Hiiiuiiuo 
 while the coiiiforts of the voyage ha\e great Iv increased. •''^•""''^• 
 The main routes to Toronto are hy Liverpool \ ia (,>uel»ec 
 ;ui(l .MoMiical; ami hy (Masgow, [.iverpool, Soul hamptoii or 
 London \ ia .N'ew V.,rU. There are also routes via lloston, 
 I'l.iladelphia and I'altimoiv. 
 
 For passengers from London, the lines sailing from South The rotito 
 ampton present the altrait ion of a short railway Journev at \''\^''^v 
 the heginning, and highly convenit'iit facilities for emharking. 
 The steamers of the Aiiieriran Liiir and tli<..se of the North 
 (leiiiiaii Lloyd aiv among the finest, of their class. The Cunai'd 
 steamers sailing from Liverpool perform the voyage in from 
 six to nine days. The Journey from New York to Toronto 
 may i)e niadi' via Im.sIoii ami .Montreal or \<v the Kivi-r 
 Hudson, Alhany, Uuflalo and Niagara Kails. A pleasant 
 variety may he introduced hy taking one of the excellent 
 steamers of the Niagara Kiver Line from <Jueenslon on the 
 Niagara l{i\i'r to Toronto (in t wo-jind half hours); or the 
 traveller may make his way to J'oronto via the Adirondack 
 Mountains, Lake Champlain and Montreal. 
 
 The Canadian lines of .steiimei-.s from liiverpool to .Montreal 'I'ho Can 
 possess the great advantage; of having an ocean voyage of '/jljj'". 
 only four or five days from land to land. The remaining four 
 oi' ti\e days are occupied in travt-rsing the land-locked waters 
 of the Gulf of St. Liwrence and in \isiting (Juehet-. It is 
 expected that l)y the sunnnei' seji.son of LS97 there will be a 
 greatly impi'oved service of steamers ecpial lo tin; fastest 
 vessels on the New York route. The existing vessels of 
 tlie Allan, Dominion, and lieaver Lines from Liverpool to 
 -Montival are exceedingly comfortable. The Canadian steam- 
 er.s are preferred t<i the New York Hikm's by those who would 
 rather travel with a moderate than with a \rr\ large number 
 of fellow passengers. 
 
 After the short ocean voyage the first land sighted is the 
 <?oast of Newfoundland ; and shortly afterwards the v(;ssel

 wick, the ItiteiXMjlouial Ufiilwiiy iiiiiy \m taken to Halifax, or 
 to Sydney ill ('aj)c I'.reton Island. Halifax is interest ing as 
 the na\al station of the North Atlantic 8(iua(lron ; the city is 
 fortified, and is garrisoned hy imperial ti'oops. 
 
 Passeni,'ers may remain at (Quebec for a few (hiys and then '.•tiolx-c, 
 proceed l)y train to their d(;stination, or they may retain their 
 l)erths in the steamer, and sail, after a brief stoppa<,'e, up the 
 St. Lawrence to Montreal (KJS miles). The city of t^iebec, 
 which was founded in KiUS l)y Champlain, is by common con- 
 sent the most picturesciue city in North America. The \ie\v 
 of (i)uel)ec from th*; ri\er and the \ iew of the broail estuarv of 
 the St. J.awrence from the citadel are alike enciiantiny, while 
 the (juaint streets in the Lower Town are among the few sug- 
 gestions of Mediievalism un the Contimsnt. A characteristic 
 vehicle, the caleche or calash, enabltjs the visitor to mount the 
 Somewhat steep streets of the citv without fatigue. The Plains 
 of Al)raham, th(i site of the decisive battle of 1759, are near 
 the citadel. 
 
 Numerous short excursions may be taken from Quebec. 
 The Falls of Montmorency (2G5 feet high) are six and-a-half 
 miles distant; and the Shrine of Ste. Anne de IJeaupr.', the 
 Lourdes of American Catholic pilgrims, is twenty-one miles 
 from Quebec. 
 
 The liiver Sagucnay and Lake St. John may l)e reached 
 from Quebec in one day (>•, steamer, or by the Quebec and Lake 
 St. John Ilailroad. The former flows through a "-or^'e 
 where the clifl's which form th(? banks of the river are on 
 either side from GOO to 1,500 feet high— the most impressive 
 points being Capes Trinity and Eternity. 
 
 Tlie region round Lake St. John is a network of small 
 lakes and rivers. The fishing is excellent, the principal 
 rarity of the regi(jn being the landdocked salmon, known as 
 the Wiiuuiush, which attracts many anglers to the country. 
 
 Montreal may be reached from Quebec by rail or Ijy river Montreal, 
 steamer. The Canadian Pacific Railway is situated on the 
 north, the Grand Trunk liailway on the; south side of the river. 
 
 ^Montreal was visited l)y the British Association in 1884.

 in the l)uildings of McCill University. Since then the

 ToituNid is a city of aljuut -.'00,000 iiilial.ituiits, iiiaiiilv cf TimoiiIo. 
 Iliitish origin, anrl is situau-d on a slope lisin-^ ifcnth tVoiu 
 l-.ikc Onlaiio. Altliou<,'li tlif city is foniicrl on llic Aiiici icaii 
 model, ill regular parall('lo;,M'aiii.s, the streets are umisuallv 
 wide, and are almost iinivei'sally adorned with shade trees. 
 The latter feature alone is sullieient to render the eity very 
 Iteautiful, especially in .sunnuer and in tlie early autunni, 
 
 Toronto occupies approximately an area of ahout fifteen 
 s(pi'ire miles, while the [lopulation nundiiM's only ahout L'O pei' 
 ficr-e. This r-emarkahly widespr-ead area is hy no means empty. 
 The " Hat " syst(!ia has not found any foothold in the city, eacii 
 houso, howe\er' small, heinir occupied as a r'ule hy a single 
 family, and situated in ,i,'iound space sullicient toallord alinost 
 inyar'iuljly a lawn, and ,i,'ener'ally a gar-derr. In the residential 
 distr-ict.s, the ^Mounds ar'e fr'e.|uently extensive and as a ride 
 ai-e kept with j,Mvat car'e. The .yener'al elU'ct of ample spac<- 
 and copious suriunei' shade renders Toronto jierhaps more 
 attractive than any other' city on the CJontinent. In surimier- 
 the hree/.e from Lake Ontari.) prevents the temperature tidirr 
 rising \ery high, excepting on rare occa^ions. The average 
 mean terrrperature for Tor'onto in duly is l.h' higher than tor' 
 r.orrdon, irr August :]. 5 higher' and in Septeniher O.o higher-. 
 The distances of the city, which ar-e neces.sar-ilv great 
 relatively to the population, are readily overcome hy the ad- 
 miral)le ser'vice of the Klectric Street Railway. Alike in 
 freipjency of car'.s, in the e(|uiprnent of them and in the admin, 
 istr'ation of the line, the Toi'onto Railway is arrrong the hest, 
 if not the bt;st in the world. 
 
 Tor'onto is the capital of the Province of Ontario and the 
 .seat of the Provincial Government. The Parliament iJuild- 
 ings, the Law Courts, known as Osgoode Hall, and the new 
 civic buildings are among the architectural features. The head 
 olHces of the banks, the otlices of financial and insurance 
 companies, and the leading newspapers, as well as those of the 
 lar-ge business houses, are fretjuently good examples of street 
 ar-chitecture, reflecting in var-ious ways the influences of the

 The Uiiivei'sit y (if Torontd, wlicise huilcliu^s iire being 
 placed at the disjiosal <tf til" Association for the purposes df 
 the Ujeeting, is a State institution, founded in accordance with 
 an ad(h'ess hy the Legislative Cijuncil and House of Asseinl)ly 
 to King George ITT. in 1797. Although the University may 
 thus In' regarded as celebrating its centenary in 1897, the 
 actual foundation did not take place until 1827. whenaurant 
 of 500,000 acres of " waste lands " was made by way of endow 
 ment of what was then called Iving's College. The abolition 
 of religious tests in 1S37 resulted in the secularization of the 
 University and the discontinuance of its faculty of Divinity. 
 Subsequent ads of the L(\gislature have from tii.ie to time 
 changed the constitution of the I'niversity. At pre.sent it 
 consists of the Senate, compo.sed of members partly ex-otticio, 
 partly appointed by the Provincial (Jovernment and partly 
 elected, and of the University Council composed of the Pro- 
 fessoriate. There are two faculties in the University, the 
 faculty of Arts and the faculty of Medicine. Phy.sics, Chem 
 istry, liiology. Physiology, Anatomy, Minei-alogy and Geology, 
 .Mathematics, ilistoi'y of Philosophy, [Modern History, Politi- 
 cal Economy aiitl Constitutional f{istoiy, Roman Law, Con 
 stitutional aiul Tnternationat Law, Comparative Philology, 
 and Italian and Spanish are the Statutory University subjects 
 in the Faculty of Arts. The Faculty of Medicine includes 
 chairs in Clinical Medicine, Surgery, Pathology, Gynn-cology, 
 and other branches of medical education. 
 
 The University of Toronto also embraces University 
 College, Victoria Universit;y (.Methodist) in confederation, 
 Kno.x College (Presbyterian), Wycliffe College (.Vnglican), St. 
 Michael's (Roman Catholic), Ontario Agricultural College, 
 Guelph ; the four latter with .six others being in atliliation 
 with the University with rejiresentation upon the Senate. 
 No fees are charged for tuition in the Faculty of Arts of the 
 University. The School of Practical Science, although under 
 th(! iimnediate direction of the Pro\incial Education Depart- 
 ment, and thus a .separate institution, is recognized as tin- 
 Engineering Department of the University, juid is represented 
 
 fiiiversity

 A niniiher of cities and towns in Ontario are within a 
 short distaiKMf ot' I'oionto. The city ot' Hamilton, at the 
 head of l)urliii;.'ton i!ay on Lakn Oiitiirio, is an im|iort)int 
 miiniifai'turint< centre. 
 
 The most notaltle place of interest near Toronto is Niagara 
 Kails, If time is limited this excursion iniiy he made coin- 
 fortaiily in one day. The Hue steamers of the <,)iitario Na\ i- 
 ;;ation Company cross Lake <)ntai'io, a journey of aliout 
 thirtv miles, in two hours, and ascend the Nia;,'ara l{i\er for 
 K<>v(Mi miles to (^hn-enston. From this villat^e electric trams 
 convey \i-itors to the Falls in one hour, and ample time to 
 .see th(! principal ohjects in the immediat«i vicinity of the 
 cataract is yiven, iicfore tlie steamer for Toronto leaves the 
 American sich* at Lewiston, or tlie Canadian side at t^ueen- 
 ston. Tile visitor may leave Toronto at seven o'clock in the 
 inornint,', spend lialf a day at th(! Falls, an<l he hack in 
 Toronto at nine in the evening. Hut tlie historic nei^^hltor- 
 hood of Niagara is worthy of a longer stay. At the mouth 
 of the Niagara lliver, on the border of Lake Ontario, is 
 the old town of Niagara. This was formerly a military post, 
 and near the t(jwn are the remains of two old forts— Fort 
 Mississauga and Fort George, the scenes of exciting episodes 
 in the war of 181:.*. 
 
 On the east hank of the river, opposite Niagara and in 
 territory posses.sed Ijy the United -States, is Fort Niagara, 
 one of the western posts liekl liy the IJritish authorities for 
 years after the treaty of peace in I7f^3, Niagara possesses 
 a Hue hotel, the (Jueen's Royal, and bathing, fishing and 
 l)oating may be con\eniently enjoyed liy tliose who spend a 
 few days in the town. On the heights abo\e 'Jueenston,

 The town of C'al<,'ary is the edinniercial centre of ihe 
 Alherta stock-raising re;j(ion and is situated at tiir foothills of 
 the Itocky Mtaintains. There is line farming land to the 
 north, amid which a railway runs up t<i the \ alley of th«' 
 North Saskatchewan Miver. I'Mmonton, the chief place of 
 this district, has an agreeable climate and contains many 
 Hnglish settlers. From Calgary a railway als.i runs to 
 I"'ort McI,,eo(|, in the neighborhood of which there are 
 large ranches of horses, cattle and sheep. Aflei- leaving 
 Calgary the main line of the Canadian Pacific ascends the 
 foothills, and runs through passes and valleys into the heart 
 of tlu^ Kocky -Mountains. The Mountains may be seen to 
 advantage from the comfortal)le "observation car'' attadied 
 to tlie trains. At Anthracite, lU 7 miles from Winnipeg and 
 4,3r)0 feet above the sea le\el, are some of the mines which 
 extend along tlie base of the Uockies, at intervals fur oOO 
 miles, many of the seams yielding excellent anthracite coal. 
 r>anfl', a few miles from Anthracite, is a mountain village near 
 the Kocky Mountain Park of Canada, a region set apart by 
 the Dominion (Jovernment as a national j>ark, and containing 
 Vjeauties of mountain, lake and road sccMiery which ha\e made 
 this part of Canada famous. The ISaiitl' Springs hotel af- 
 fords the l)est accommodation for the passing visitor. Here 
 there are hot sulphur baths, etc., and besides the -driving, 
 fishing and other attractions, there are (opportunities for the 
 pursuit of big game in the mountains for those who ha\e the 
 leisure to make longer excursions.

 At the conclusion of tlie iiuietinj^is at Toronto, or of the 
 journey to the North-West, members have a clioict.' of several 
 routes eastward to the seaports from which the ocean steamers 
 sail for Knj,dand. Toronto is so situated that the traveller 
 may, without ^'reatly divergini,' from the direct route, reach 
 the Atlantic Coast either thntu^h Cnited States territory, 
 or throutjh Canada. The (hiily steamers down Lake (Jntario, 
 among the Thousand Islands, and through the rapids of the St. 
 LawrencM! liivei- to .Montreal or (Quebec, allord a delightful 
 means of i-ejoining the < ceim steamers. This occupies a day 
 and a half between Torontcjand Motitreal. The railwav rcjute 
 occupiers a night or a day. 
 
 Members who liave seen Hastern Canachi bc^fore, ami j)ro- 
 pose to visit some of the principal cities of the Cnited States 
 on th(^ ri'tuin joui'iiey, will TiikI Toi'onto a i-onvetiient starting 
 point. The lake steamers alrt^idy referred to will convev 
 them to t^ueenston or Levviston on the Niagara Iviver. 
 A short railway tiip then follows. From lUdValo routes 
 may be closen via Washington, Baltimore, I'hiladelphia, 
 New York and lloston. If tlu; steamei' has to be joined at 
 t^Kiebec or Montreal, the railway journey north to those 
 places fioni New Yoik or IJoston is short and comfortable. If 
 timt! permits, the visitor who desiies to visit the Provinces of 
 Nova Scotia and New iJrunswick may do so in a charming sail 
 ahtiig the coast fiom <>|uebec to Pictou, N.S. by the(Julf I'orls 
 S.S. Line, and thence via Halifax to IJoston. The direct
