It is too youu" to have many traditions or nuieh vem'ral)le history, yet it has some. It luight be"^ look- ed to as the central subject of a long history were a writer to diverge into the annals of the Province, of which it is the Seat of Government. It is the ])lace of residence of the Lieutenant-Governors of Ontario, the Seal of Legislation, of the Courts of Justice, of Education, and the centre of "Western Commerce. In 1793, besides the old French fort built in 1G8«, it contained no other human habi- tation than the rude wigwams of the migratory Indians, and then not many of these. When the census was taken in January, 1801, the otKcial return was 45,160. l!y natural increase and immigration it may be estimated in 1870 as close upon 70,000. This beautiful city extends between east and west over two miles, boumtcd on the south by the I5ay, a spacious inlet from Lake Ontario, and str(;tching northerly about a mile and a half, including open spaces at the extremities, terminating with Yorkville, on the undula ting heights, and more westerly, limited by the (Queen's Park where stand the Uriversity and Observatory, with handsome private residences, amongthe pic- turescjue wood.s, at an elevation from one hundred to two hundred feet above the level of tho Lake.^ Taking the site of the Observatory as the geogra])hical position of Toronto, the city occupies a spot of the globe on the north-west angle of Lake Ontario, in 43= 39' 4'"' North Latitude, and 79° 21' 5" West Longitude; or 5 hours, 17 minut.'S, 20 sec^onds of time slower than the clock at Greenwich Observatory, .six n iles from Charing Cross, London, England. Toronto is distant from Niagara Falls, by (ircct line across the lake and the mouth of Niagara river, 50 miles ; from Collingwood atjthe north terminus of the Northern Railroad, on Georgian Bay, Lake Huron, 9? miles ; from Hamilton, 45 • London, 114 ; Kingston, 165 ; Ottawa, 233 ; Montreal, 323 ; Quebec, 503 ; New York' 500 ; Boston, 593. ' The beach at Toronto, which nearly encloses the Bay from Lake Ontario, is a barrier of gravel and sand. It has accumulated by the wedging of ice into an angle of the shore where the water freezes, being there comparatively shallow. Against that ice, throu<'h long ages, Lake Ontario, too deep to freeze, has surged up in the tempests of winter depositing a wall of shingle transferred from its own bottom. Another beach formed ii'i like mann. r, encloses Burlington Bay at the western extremity of the lake, five miles *rom the city of Hamilton, 4 GUIDE noOK OF TORONTO, Bouohette, in his work on the Survey of Canada, j)ublisht'(l in 1832, dpscrihes the harbour and site of Toronto as lie saw the locality in 17!»3, thus :-•" I still distinctly recollect the untamed aspect which the country exhibited when I tirat entered the beuu- tiful basin which then became the scone of my early hydrograidiical operations. Dense and trackless forests lined the margin cf the lake, and reflected their inverted images in Hi glassy surface. The wandering savage had constmcted his ephemeral habitation be- neath their luxuriant foliage, — 'the group then consisting (jf two families of Jlissisaagas ; and the bay and neighbouring mandies were the hitherto uninvaded haunts of inmionse coveys of wild fowls ; indeed they were my abundant as in some measure to au'ioy us duiing the night. In the Spring following, Lieutenant-Governor Simcoe re- moved to the site of the new capital, attended by the regiment of Queen's Ilangers, and 'jommenced at once the realizations of his favourite project. His Exctdlency inhabited, during the sninr.ier and through the winter a canvas hint.**, which lie imparted directly for the occasion ; but frail as was its substance, it was rendered exceedingly comfortable, and soon became as tlistinguished for the social and urbane hospitality of its venerateil and gracious host, as for tiie peculiarity of its stnicture." From 1793 till 1854 the Seat of Government was in Canada an unsettled question . the people of Newark in the tirst-nametl year, were troubled with the mibject ; they being in possession desired the Government to remain where it was. Governor Simcoe decided that it should be at York, yet only temporarily until the West should be settled and London built. Lord Dorchester the Governor-General thought Kingston the proper place. In 1795, the retirement of Lieutenant-Governor Simi.'oe from Upper Canada led the inhabitants of Newark to hope that the projected removal of the Seat of Govern- ment would not be carried out. The name Toronto was superseded by that of York about 1794, and by Act of Parlia. liient it displaced York in 1834. It is found in Canadian French documents as early as 1G86, and if it be of Indian origin, its antiquity extends beyond memory. Ouentorouk is given as one of the native names which, says the Rev. Dr. Scadding, may have been gradually rubbed down in passing from trader to trader to Toronto. Two favoiirite interpretations have been "trees rising out of the water," and the "place of meeting." Others have suggested th'; word "Toronto" to be a perpetiuition of the French engineer who constructed the fort in the years 1750-52, but the fort and French habitations within were named Rouille, in compliment to the Colonial Minister of France who authorized its construction. The public buildings of Toronto which first attract the eyes of strangers are th Churches, with tall tapering spires. The umbrageous avenues leading to the Park carry the visitor to the University and Observatory. Trinity College, Upper Canada College Knox College, Model School, the Parliament Buildings, Lunatic Asylum, the New Prison, St. James' Cemetery, and Necropolis, attract notice ; and the General Hospital for its widely beneficent utility demands admiration ; St. Lawrence Hall is massive and Commodious ; the City Hall, near it, serves the Corporation with a place of assembly and City offices ; St. James' Cathedral, the towers still unfinished, St. Michael's Zion Knox's Churches ; the Music Hall, Masonic Hall, and Post Office, Mechanics' Institute and further to the west, Osgoode Hall, the structure in which the higher Courts of Law, and the practising lawyers a.ssenible ; these and many more, together with banking houses, manufactories, merchants' warehouses, spacious hotels, lon«,„rc..H, l.ut to tl». a. .bitior. .,f its onrlier inlmlntants to ,nuk.. tl.Hr (■,„„ili...s th.- lirst in lin-.u,.. of « Rran.l l.uu .wninK ari.to.ra, y.

The Model Schools are designed by the system of instruction pursued and by general arrangement, to be the model of all the Public Schools of the Province. The building is situated on the centre of an open square meaw.ring seven and a half acres, on elevated ground, distant from the Bay about three quarters of a mile MrsEUM.-In connection with the Model School is an Educational Museum, containing specimei^. of school apparatus and furniture, a collection of Italian, Dutch and Flemish oil paintmgs, and statuary, -jasts and busts. Tliis Museum is freely ouen to the public Public School Librakies. Their head-quarters Depository is in the Normal School buildmgs, Each School and Municij.al Corporation desirous of establishing Free Public Libraries is aided by the Educational Department granting one hundred per cent, on local appropriations, and by supplying books from the Depository. At the en.l of 1863 the Libraries, in that way established, numbered 576, with over 1,200 sub-divisions, and containing 205,122 volumes. The whole number of Educational Institutions reported open in Upper Canada in 1863 was 4,588; the pupils attending them numbered 375,333 ; the sum of $1,803,493 was expended in their support. Grammar Schools.— These act as a connecting link between the Common Schools and the University, and are designed to give instruction in the branches of a practical English and commercial education, including the elements of Mechanics and Natural Philosophy ; and also iu the Greek and Latin languages, and in Mathematics, so far as to prepare students for University College, or any College affiliated to the University of Toronto. ^ THE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO. The University of Toronto was established by Royal Charter, dated 15th March 182' and was styled "King's College" on 3rd January, 1828. It was endowed by Patent' with a grant of lands which, at the request of the Parliament of Upper Canada ha,i been set apart by the Crown for that purpose in 1798. In 1843. the arrangements having been completed for opening the University, the formal inauguration of the Institution and first admission of students took place on the 8th of June of that year, and its first Convocation on the 14th of December, 1844. In 1849 the Parliament of Canada in compliance with the Imperial recommendation " to consider in what manner the Univer- sity could be best constituted for the benefit of the whole society," abolished such restrictions as made agreement with the Thirty-Nine Articles of the Church of EnKland Compulsory on professoi-s and the holders of scholarships, changed the name from " King's College." and enlarged the powers of Convocation under the title of the Uni- versity of Toronto. In 1853, Parliament, by an Act, separated the functions of the University irom those assigned to it as a College. The University buildings occupy a charming situation within the woodland limits of tne Queen's Park. The Architect was Fit^derlck William Cumberland, Esq now Managing Director of the Northern Railway, and Lieutenant-Colonel Commanding the 10th Royal Volunteer Battalion of Infantry. Colonel Cumberland was also Archi- tect of the Normal and Model Schools, of St. James' English Cathedral, and of Osaoode Hall, prominent structures in the city, besides various public buildings situated in different parts of the Province. UNIVERSITY COLLEGE. On the first establishment of the Provincial University, the functions of instruction, ani of examining for honours and degrees, were continued under the Act of 1849 With a view of adapting the University to a system of affiliated Colleges, the functions were separated, and University College as a distinct Collegiate Institution.

Kennedy, (formerly of Hamilton) the proprietor of these new and extensive Works, conducted us over his establishment a few days a^^o. The premises are situated on York St., (next to Nelson Wood & Co.'s) nearly opposite the Rossin House, taking up two large stores, portions of the party walls of which have been removed so as to make a sufficiently extensive Warehouse. The machinery, which is now complete, is of a very superior class, and was made by Messrs. C. C. Winchell&Co., of Cincinnati, specially for the Works, which Mr. Kennedy seems determined shall be equal if noi ahead of anything in the Dominion, in regard to equipment. Every grade of Tobacco will be manufactured, and in bright goods Mr. K. purposes to endeavour to supply the demand which now exists, owing to the Virginia market being shut to our merchants. He has the a(U iitage of the experience and assistance of the oldest Cincinuatti manufacturer ; and with the facility which he poss- esses, gives us every reason to expect that Toronto has gained a very important addition to her manufacturing interests, in the establishing of the Virginia Tobacco Works. New Firm. —We note another addition to our list of merchants— Messrs. E. H. Moore & Co.— General Commission Merchants, &c., who have recently commenced business here. This firm are agents for the well known Safe manufacturer, of Montreal— Chas. D. Edwards (for- merly Kershaw & Edwards). Arrangements have been made so that Messrs, Moore & Co. will be in a position to compete in prices witli any in the market ; and he has already brought on a fine supply of the various sizes made. We believe that in this line they are exhibitors at the Exhibition. Messrs. M. & Co, will also be engaged in various branches of the Commis- f"on Trade. Fanct Goods, Wooden Ware, Willow Ware, Etc.— We direct attention to the adver- tisement of Messrs. Nelson, Wood & Co. They are extensive importers and wholesale dealers in European and American fancy goods, fireworks, toys, paper hangings, docks, looking- glasses, and looking-glass plates, cordage, mats and baskets ; and mannfacturers of brooms, WooJen ware an i matches. From their superior facilities for manufacturing and importing, and their long experience in the fancy goods and wooden ware trade, they are enabled to sell at the lowest market prices, while they are now offering special inducements to jobbers and large buyers. They have also on hand a large stock of staple and fancy goods, adapted to city and country trade. From the high reputation of this firm for fair and honorable dealing, we are satisfied that parties sending orders will have them fdled to their utmost satisfaction. The Toronto establishment is at 74 and 76 York street, and their Montreal house at 25, 27 and 29 St. Peter street. Country merchants coming to the city this fall, as well as visitors to he Exhibition, will find it to their advantage to give Messrs, Nelson, Wood & C(». a call. ur^h Veterinary late of Toronto. 8.

IRWIN, Oshawa, . . i . ; Dkar Sir,— In reply to yours of this date, I beg- to say that we have had your Heater in use about ten months, and consider it a success, and great economiser of fuel, saving us, as it does, about thirty per cent. Our Kngineer informs nie that the la.st time he cleaned it out, he tooli about two bushel of lime and sand out ef it. It lieats the water within about (12) twelve degrees of boiling point. I can cordially recommend it to all persons using- steam power. W. H. GIBBS. Woodstock, August 12, 1870. JOHN IRWIN, E.SQ., Oshawa. ' Dear Sir,— In reply to yours about your Heater, I must say, that, as far as saving of Fuel is concerned, your Heater dues all in that resjieet that you claim for it. As I never had any trouble with Lime in my Holler, ami cannot speak on that i)iiint,"but have been troubled with Sand, and find that it keeps the siind from getting into the Boiler. I have two run of oatmeal stones and two run of flour stones, with one and one-fourth ccrds of pine wood per day, but before your Heater was put in I used about one and tliree-quarter cords of hardwood per day. It thus effects a saving to me of fu.ly one half for fuel. 1 remain, yours truly, JOHN FORREST. Mb. IRWIN,— Dear Sir, Having used .vour Patent Heater for some months, I can fully recommend it a.s a great fur' economiser, as it is capable of condensing the steam from our forty horse-power engine, and also cleanses the water. It does more than the inventor claims for it. 1 would not be without it for any consideration. M. DEAN, Oshawa. «„ iDwixT r. Woodstock, August 12, 1870. Mr. IRWIN, Osiiawa.

DICKEY, NEILL & Co., Proprietors. It is alvviiys a pleasing duty to record the success and advancement of our Home manu- factures and more es].ecially so when, as in the case of the Soho Foundry, we find that the establisliment is, as it were, wholly our own. having sjnung up in our midst and risen from its unpretending primitive state to its present enormous dimensions hy a steady growth and active enterprise of the proprietors. In oiu- editions of former years we have usually noticed the progress of the Soho Foundry, and we are hap])y to say that we have this year to notice a much more e.vtensive and decided improvement tluul in any year since its commencement. ' For the benefit of any who may not have the opportunity of visiting it we may give u very short sketch of the establishment, Init to any who can, we have no doubt that il will amply repay the trouble. Crossing the weigh house and weigh bridge from the office (where of course visitors are expected to get permission to go Hirough the works) we enter the Machine Shoj), a building about 300 feet long by 55 feet wide, well stocked with all the most approved tools for Iron work, such as Lathes, Drilling Machines, Tlaning Ma- chines, Shaping Machines, Slotting Machines, Screwing Machines, Bolt Cutters, &c., and in a building speiially set ajiart for the work are Axle Lathes, Car Wheel Boring Machines and Hydraulic Presses for pressing car wheels on the axles. The action and power of some of tliese Machines to the uninitiated are tnily astonishing, and perhap.s'the most noticeable are a very large Lathe, capable of running a wheel 18 to 20 feet in dia- meter of their own manufacture, and built expressly with the view of meeting the demands of the heavy work which forms so large a portion of the business of the establishment, and a very jiowerful Hydraulic Ram which exerts a power of IVoui 200 to 250 tons, li'i this Machine Shop alone there are constantly employed over 100 Mechanics. The "Moulding Shop" or Foundry proper, situated in the rear of the Machine Shop, though formerly one of the largest in the Dominion, has this year lieen extended to nearly double its former size and cai)acity. It is littcd uj) with two hu-(e melting furnaces and two heavy cranes now in operation, and another furnace and crane in course of con- struction. In this department all kinds of eastings are made, varying in weights up to 5 or G tons each, and the same forethought in providing every facility for the handling of large or heavy work which is so striking throughout the whole establishment i,s notked here. At present the amount of iron melted is from 5 to 7 tons i)er day, but with the aid of another now erecting this will of course be largely increased. In the Smith Shop there are 18 forge iires and a furnace, the blast for all of which is furnished by a fan run by steam power. There is also a steam hammer manutactured by themselves, and many other appliances for the working of wrought ii'on. The annual consumption of raw iron here is about 900 tons and of coal aljout 700 tons. The 15oiler Shop is a large new building erected this summer to the rear of the Foundry and fronting on Soho street. It is supplied witii machinery of the heaviest description designed and manufactured by the proprietors, and particularly suited to tlie requirements of their extensive 1)u.sine.ss in this line. The Pattern Shop and Car Shop are to the north and also fronting on Soho and Pluebe .streets, but we have not space to ,sav more of theju than that the one is replete with the choicest models and patterns of the best machinery I ONTARIO PRINTERS' EMPORIUM, 85 a&d 87 BAY STEE JT, TOROITTO. ^•> (SUCCKiS.SOllS TO WHJ.IAM HALLEY), IMPORTERS or Si DEALERS IN ENGLISH & AMERICAN Tfpe, Presses, Machinery, Printing kh Papers, AND REQUISITES OF KVKRV DESCRIPTION.

Wingfield commenced business as Practical TphoLsterer, Cabinet Maker and Spring Manufacturer, at 151 Yonge street, a little over two years ago. He manufactures every description of Cabinet Ware, Chairs and Bedsteads : but his main business consists in getting up a superior class of furniture ; and during the past season has filled orders for gentlemen in Toronto, and other .sections of the Province, for drawing and bedroom sets, which compare favourably with the best produced by either Ameiican or European manufactories. His business has in this de- . partment been constantly increasing, so that he has been comiyelled to increase his facili- ties in order to supply the demand. He is a practical man, personally superintending the execution of all orders. He uses the best materials and for durability, taste, .superior workmanship, and artistic finish combined, he challenges all competitors, either in the States or Canada.

Tlie proprietor of this Machine claims for it that it is the best cheap Shuttle Machine in the world, being constructed in an elegant, siniiih;, stidug and durabh' manner, on the eombined principle of the Singerand Howe Machines, and doing with case a range iif work from the lightest muslin fabiic to the heaviest b(«ivpi' clotli.

Ahs. Mendon's large exjierieiice a.s an agent, Inning tested almost every machine manufactured, and her ([uickness of perception, and know ledge uf all the jiart:- (jf the maidiine, and its working, give her a decided advan- tage over any sewing machine agent we know of in Canada.

Were we a lady iiui'ehnser desirous of learning to run a machine, we would not hesitate to pay a, considerable extrv sum for having the advantage of Mrs. Mendon's instructions ; although the fact is, you can purchase to the greatest advantage at her store.

Mr. Dunnctt has .spared neither |iains nor exiiense in adding to the attractions of the j.laee. Handsome iilea.«ure grounds have been laid out tlie pant sunimer, and the build- ings enlarged and beautitied, and the bathing facilities greatly increased. We have aee^P 101 aiiiilyzation of the water— and the ablest medical men bear their testimony to it» highly curative ({ualities. The popularity these spiings have attained during tiie past summer is surprising to tlie Londoners, who have witnessed the great relief uttorded to the suli'erers who have liathed in, or draidc, the healing waters. Many Southern tourists iiave availed them.selve.s of the suiJerior hotel accommodation, and the invigorating and salubrious climate of the " Forest City," instciul of remaining at Saratoga, a» has been their custom in former years, they having greater conhdence in the curative elfects oi' the London White Sulphur Spring.t.

CANADIAN BUSINESS CONCERNS. MessKS. Angus, Logan tfc Co., 278 St. Paul St., Montreal, do a very exten.'>ive bus- iiess in the manufacture and importation of ]iaper aud stationery. Having now in oper ution four mills, two at Sherbrooke and two at Windsor, (,|c., they arc able to turn out six tons of paper per day. They manufacture all descriptions of coloured, book and news printing pajiers ; gi'cy, brown and manilla wrapping paper.s, also match pajxr and rooting felt. They also imj)ort largely of all kinds of foreign stationeiy. From the extent of their business, they are enabled to offer as favourable inilucements to purchasers as any house in the trade, and we cordially coniuiend them to the public. NoliTii's Patent DutM Heatkk. — The patentee, ^!r. North, received a diploma for this great eeonomiser of fuel ut the Hamilton Exhibition of 1801. The "Heater" can be applied with ecpial advantage to either coal or wood stoves. Health, comfort and econ- GUIDi: noOK OF TORONTO. 53 oniy lire tlic ro.suUs of its use.

Iuwin's Patf.nt Waste Steam IIkatku.— We woulil call the special attention of innehini.sts and all using steam to any e.\tent of power, to this valualile and mueh needed invention. Hy its use incrustation and corrosion in the boiler is prevented ; and it fdfects a savinj,' in the fuel used of fully 30 per eent. It will l»e noticed in eonneetion with the iulvertisement on another page, tlie eertilieatcs of such men us Mr. (^lilihs, Pre- sident of the Osliciwa Cabinet Factory, and others are given, from which may be deduced the fact that it does much mon; than the inventor claims for it, in ell'ecting a saving of fuel— a very desirable cunditii.n to ail using ste.-m engines. Parties ordering should send number of iior.se power ol engine, etc., to Mr. Irwin, Oslinwa, who will answer all in(|uiries promptly. Parties may place the highest reliance uiKin Mr. Ii'win's integrity ; as the Waste Steam Heater is not one of these catch-pennies which so often are gotten up to gull the public. The machines have been fully tested, and we have tho best evi- dence iu the experience of practical men of their great utility. ODDFELLOWSHIP. Indki'KNDENT Ouukh of Odui'Jcllow.s, (Bai.ti.moui; Unity.)— The rapid strides which this institution has made in Canada during the last few years, and more especially in Toronto, demand more tliaa a passin:^' notice. On tlie 1 Itli .(.•umary, 1868, through tlie oxertions of a few members of the Order tiien resident iu Toronto, a dispen.sation was granted for the form- ation of the first Lodge. Sanguine indeed, thougli the hopes and expectations of the project- ors were, little did they look for that realization which, to-day, proves, that from small be"inn'iigs great results often Jiow, and though we do iKjt by any means consider tho work jot done (for we trust to see a still further increase,) yet wo think that a mention of the fi"ures at which tliey have even now arrived goes far to establish the position tiiat there is every leasou to e.x-peet that tlie llaltiniore Unity of Oddfellows must .^oou Liecoiiie an institu tion in our midst, calculated to wield au inliiieiice ior good, and make itself recufjiiized by the prominent position which it is fast assuming through the length and breadth of our land. The l(jllowing ligures show the present membership : Canada Lod;^e, instituted iu Toionto, Jan. U, 18(58, now numbers 131 members.
