The marked success which attended the publication of Lovell's GAZKTTBEB OF BRITISH NoRTH AMERICA, in 1871. has induced the pubhshers to undertake the issue of a revised edition, and they We now much pleasure in presenting it to the public. This Gazetteer will f„Uy ,h„^ the rapid strides made throughout the Dominion within the past ten years. Great care has been exercised in collecting information, and every place known is given. The Gazetteer will be found to contain over fifteen hundred more places and over eight hundred more Lakes and Elvers than were given in the first edition. A publication of this kind necessarily involves a large expenditure, but the publishers feel assured they will not be at a pecuniary loss in their effort to let the people of Canada know something of their great country. The Publishers. PREFACE. A Gazetteer of British North America, containing reliable information touching the climatic conditions of the different Provinces, the relative fertility of their soils, the vast improvements made in agriculture, commerce and trade, modes of travel and transportation, mining and educational interests, and embodying in a compact form all the outer facts, geographical, topographical, statistical and mercantile of every section of British North America, has become an acknowledged necessity ; and such a work will doubtless be gladly welcomed by the people of this continent, and by the commer- cial, manufacturing and emigrating classes of Great Britain and the continent of Europe, and recognized as an indispensable companion and guide by the crowds of tourists, travellers, sea-side excursionists and sportsmen who are tempted in search of health or pleasure, information or profit, to visit tlie sea-side resorts fringing the line of the "Intercolonial ;" the romantic mountaiu-girt shores of Gaspd and Labrador; the celebrated gold fields and coal mines of Nova Scotia and British Columbia ; the famed salmon rivers of the Lower St. Lawrence and New Brunswick ; the inexhaust- ible fisheries of Newfoundland and Cape Breton ; the fair and fertile plains of Prince Edward Island ; the rich copper and silver mines of Lakes Huron and Superior ; and the Province of Manitoba, Keewatin, and great valley of the Saskatchewan. The utility of a work of this kind, drawing its facts from original and authentic sources, treating ou a variety of topics, all of them of interest, many of them novel and heretofore unnoticed, becomes the more evident when tlie increasing intercourse be- tween the different provinces and the growing commerce between the Dominion and other countries are taken into account The nature and extent of the labor involved in the preparation of this Gazetteer may be inferred from the fact that there are 7,500 Cities, Towns, Villages and Places within the Dominion of Canada and Newfoundland ; that each of the 7,500 had to be classed in alphabetical order ; the geographical position described ; the railway or steam- boat connections, postAl or telegraphic facilities, distance from important centres ; also the manufacturing, mining, agricultural, shipbuilding and fishery industries ; and the population, as far as it could possibly be obtained. Also, that the locality and extent of over 1,500 Lakes and Rivers had to be described. The Gazetteer is classed under three heads : First, the Table of Routes ; second, the Cities, Towns, Villages, Settlements, Counties and Provinces ; and third, the Lakes and Rivers. The first is of itself an intrinsic part of the work. It shows the proximity of the railway stations, and the sea, lake and river ports to every city, town, village and settlement, in British North America, thus informing the reader how he may reach any desired place without unnecessary delay. ,u*-t * * ■ 1 ' Preface, Tlie minuteness of the details and the fulness of the information embodied in the Gazettek.u can best be illiiHtrated by the followinj; extnu'trt ;— AMllKIiST, formerly known as FORT LAWliKNCK, a seaport town of Nova Scotia, tlie capitiil of Cumberlaud co., very pleasantly situated at the head of Chis^necto Bay, and on tlie Intercolonial railway, 9 miles from Sackville, N. B., and 138 miles W. by N. of Halifax. It contains, besides the county and railway buildinjis, 2:^ stores, ch inches, 4 liotels, several mills and factories, an iron foundry, 2 tanneries, 2 ])i-inting ofHces issuing weekly newspapers, a telegraph office, and a branch bank. It has two public lialls and four society halls, and also a very fine driving jiark. It is a port of entry, has a large trade, especially in lumber and shipbuilding, and is noted for its extensive and productive marsh lauds, which furnish excellent i)asturage. Pop. .'iOOO. AMIIEKSTBUKG, an incorporated town in Essex co. , Out., on the Detroit River, 5 miles above its junction with Lake Erie, and at the western terminus of tlie Cnnada Southern railway, 18 miles from Windsor. It was at one time a garrison town, and was called Maiden, the name of a fortress in the town. It contains a court house, a lunatic asylum, 5 places of worship, several saw and grist mills, an iron foundry, about 25 stores, 5 hotels, and a telegrai)h office. Aniherstburg is a i)ort of entry. Steamers run daily between here and Detroit. Poj). 193G. Amherst in Nova Scotia and Aniherstburg in Ontario, two towns of nearly equal iwpulation, rapidly rising in importance as shipping and manufacturing communities, are selected at random from classification A of the (iAzetteeu to show the care with which statistical materials incident to each locality have been collected and utilized. These towns, situated more than a thousand miles apart, exhibit in a striking light the vast extent of the confederated portions of the British North American possessions, while the returns of factories, stores, mills and rail and steamboat connectipns, demon- strate their marvellous progress in all those elements of wealtli and i)opulation which constitute the true basis of national strength. There is one especial advantage enjoyed by those who relate events or transnctions, or any incidents rec.-orded in the earlier annals of this continent : because the chief actors are individualized, their deeds officially registered, and critical contemporaries have depicted in lively colors tho.se memorable events which form chronological land- marks in the history of Canada, whereas the earliest nccounts of the origin and growth of the old world races are involved in the mists of anticpiity, and fabulous legends assign superhuman qualities to mythical and jn-e-historic heroes. The Sagas of Iceland, dating back more than five centuries before Gaspar Corteral, in 1500, entered the Gulf of St. Lawrence, recount how adventurous Nortlinicn discovered this continent, founded the colony of Vinland, and maintained intercourse with it down to the beginning of the twelfth century, though no trace of their occui>ation can be discovered, and Vinland is capriciously assigned to the shores of Massachusetts, Labrador, and Newfoundland ; but it is a well attested fact that in 15;i5 Jacques Cartier landed at the Indian village of Hocbelaga, explored the Ct. Lawrence as far as the foot of the Lachine rapids, and ascended the mountain of Montreal, where, after the fashion of tlie age, he planted a cross. Thus to France undoubtedly belongs the honor of having made the first dis- covery of the St. Lawrence. In subsequent years bands of stout-hearted and self-sacri- ticiug Frenchmen, conspicuous for their fortitude and stoical endurance, exposed their lives fearlessly in adventurous explorations extending from Hudson's Bay to the Great Lakes, and thence down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico. The earliest settlement attempted at Quebec dates 1G08 ; only 273 years have there* 8 Preface. ill I M fore elapsed between the epoch when the first settler, under manifold discor.ragements, planted himself in Canada, and to-day when the Queen of lMi«,'land claims jurisdiction over tlie most extensive colony in the world, inhabited by ui)ward8 of four millions of active, enterprising, and self-reliant people, confederated under the ambitious title of the Dominion of Canada, which consists of upwards of four millions of geographical square nules, extending from the Athmtic on the east to the shores of the Pacific on the west. Its extreme breadth on the parallel of 49" north latitude is 3,066 geographical miles, and the greatest depth from the most southern point of the Province of Ontario to Smith's Sound in the Polar regions rather more than 2,150 miles. It was said of Canada, when the provinces of Upper and Lower Canada comprised her entire territory, that, with the exception of coal and a few of the less important metals, she contained within herself a supply of almost all the known useful minerals, not only amply sufficient for her domestic consumption, but, with few exceptions, for permanent, i)rofitable and extensive commerce. Again, at the great Exhibition of 1861, at London, the jury were pleased to state, " that of all the British Colonies, Canada is " that whose exhibition is the most interesting and complete, and one may even say " that it is superior, as far as the mineral kingdom is concerned, to all countries that " have forwarded their pro^luctious to the Exhibition." Canada has since grown from two Provinces into a Dominion, thereby acquiring the gold and coal mines on the At- lantic and Pacific coasts, and the enormous coal areas of the North West. Little is yet known as to the extent of the mineral deposits throughout nine-tenths of the territory included within the line of the Dominion, but evidence has been obtained to warrant the belief that these sources of wealth exist in inexhaustible quantities and include every variety found on the continent of Europe. The coal mines of Nova Scotia may for centuries to come supply the demands of the marine of England, while capacious har- bors like Halifax afford ample and secure anchorage for the largest navies. Along the line of the American coast, stretching from the Isthmus of Panan)a to Behring's Island, a distance of three thousand miles, few harbors equal, and none are superior to those found in British Columbia ; hence the coal measures of Vancouver Island and the Sas- katchewan acquire additional importance, and must become of incalculable value when the commerce of the Dominion with Japan, China, and the Australian colonies as- sumes larger aimensions. The vast regions belonging to the British Crown, extending from Lake Superior to the Pacific Ocean, averaging six hundred miles in width by two thousand miles in length, are adapted to the uses of the agriculturalist, and are capa- ble of supporting a greater number of the human race than can to-day be found in France, Germany, and Switzerland combined. Every variety of soil and climate offers itself. British Columbia revels in the enjoyment of a Devonshire temperature, while, up to sixty degrees of north latitude, the seasons, owing to the warm winds of the Pacific, are more genial than those of Sweden or Norway. Vetches, w/iich remain juicy during winter, and the enduring bunch grass, as nourishing as the pastures of England, cover vast jirairies, while the abundance of buffaloes and the facility with which horses and cattle find food throughout the year, and fatten and multiply, are facts •which attest the nutritious nature of the natural grasses. This magnificent country, watered by majestic streams, stored with mineral treasures, known as the Saskatche- wan Valley, so called after the celebrated river which descends from the Rocky Moun- fciins to Lake Winnipeg, is noted for the extent and richness of its coal measures. Rich beds of pure economic coal twelve to twenty-four feet in thickness, and iron ore in vast quantities in the same strata, extend from the Coal Rapids, Saskatchewan River, to the \ A' i - - . And the Postmasters of the Dominion. ' The publisher refers especially to the value of the services rendered by the above gentlemen, and gladly acknowledges Mr. P A. Crossby's judicious compilation and classification of the matter, and the unremitting industry he displayed in consulting records, collating authorities, and moulding into shape the topographical, statistical, and historic materials of the Gazetteer. It would be an act of presumption on the part of the publisher to pretend to collecf 10 Preface.

ANTICOSTI, an island lying directly in the mouth of the St. Lawrence, between the 49th and SOtli degrees of latitude, nearly the same as that of the north of France, contains an area of 2,460,000 acres of land of the best quality, similar, said the late Sir William Logan, the eminent Canadian geologist, to the fine arable soil of Ontario, and the Genessee County, New York State; it possesses over 300 miles of sea coast, is about 140 miles long, and 35 miles broad in the widest part, with an average breadth of 271/2 miles. Anticosti is made mention of so long ago as 1660, in the geographical folio work of the celebrated loyalist Dr. Peter Heylyn, known as " Cosmographia." He says that the proper name for the island is Natiscotee, which it is supposed was corrupted by the Spaniards, who fished in and oft the St. Lawrence at that period, to its present ap- pellation. He reports that ihe Island was then held by a tribe of Indians, who were exceedingly kind and friendly to such mariners as landed there. The flef of the island was granted by Louis XIV., about 1680, to Sieur Louis Joliet, as a recompense for his discovery of the mouths of the Mis- 8is8i[)pi and the Illinois, and other services rendered to his Government ; and it seems to have been held of 30 little account in its j)rimitivt' state that here Charlevoix, writ- ing about 1722, in his " Histoire du Canada," siiys that Joliet «* would, perhaps, have pre- ferred one of the smallest lordships in France." In La Houtan's "History of Canada " is a chart of the St. Lawrence, and a plan of the island, showing Joliet's Fort on the western flank. La Houtan was a French ;narine officer, and he mentions that Joliet was captured in his boat off the island by the English expedition against Quebec, in 1690, under Admiral Phips, but released after the faihire of that expe- dition. Mr. T. Anbury, who sailed with General Burgoyne's army in 1756, devotes three pages of his work, 'Interior Travels through America," to the seal fisheries of Anticosti, and the method of catching these animals between the continent and the ad- jacent islands. So much for the early records of Anticos-' ti. Wlien the feudal system became abol- ished, which had long prevailed under the French domination of Cana^la, there being no tenants on the island, the seigneur, or lord of his manor, became possessed of the whole soil in fee simple, since which time it has been held jointly by a variety of per- sons, chief amongst whom are the Forsyth family. The title to this immense posses- sion seems to have been fully acknowledged by the Parliament of Canada, as an act was passed in 1873 incorporating a company to develop the resources of the island. AuticoBti slopes gradually from its ele- iiife" mUnsiKSS^tS^'^-^ ANT LovelVs Gazetteer of [151] British North America. ANT rated northern coast to the grassy savannae which Bkirt the aouthorn snore, and thus, in a great nieaaure, tlie fertile portions of the country are nrolected from severe win- ter winds. Its cliinato is very liealtliy, and it certainly is not severer tlian that of tlie other maritime provinces. The atmospliere is pure and clear, and free from fogs, which ttre so frequent on and around Newfound- land. The winter's cold is considerably tempered by the waters of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and the heat of summer is, to a certsiin extent, moderated by the same in- fluence. Vegetation progresses very rapid- ly, and crops come to perfection in good season. The soil is of good quality, being a rich loam intermixed with limestone ; valu- able forests are to be found on the greater part of the island, and although the timber generally is not of the largest size, it is of a superior (luality, and well adapted for ship- building. The tisheries around the island, which have been hitherto cov ;tively neg- lected, are valuable and ant. Speak- ing of them Connnander d, of Lo, Cana- dieniie, in his report, i , o, to the Domin. ion Governmeni, sajs "This island is beginning to be frequented and settled by hardy fishermen, tempted by the desire of participating in its rich lisheries, which up to the last few years were, comparatively, unexplored. . . . The importance aiid value of its fisheries have increased along with the number of fishermen. The waters bordering on Anticosti are stocked with the same kinds as are to be met with on the south and north coasts of the St. Law- rence." In his report for 1872 Commander Lavoie says : " Large shoals of herrings visit its shores about the same time they repair to Pleasant Bay, Magdalen Islands. A schooner, from Prince Edw&rd Island, caught last spring with the sein. 1,100 bar- rels of herrings in one day." He goes on to say: " The whole of Anticosti abounds with fish of all sorts, but harbors are scarce, even for fishing boats. Codfish on this coast are all large, and no finer are seen even on the Miscou and Ori)han lianks." The number of fishermen frequenting its banks in- creases every year. Even when codllsh was a failure everywhere else in the Gulf, it did not fail at Anticosti. Halibv.t are so plentiful that 199 barrels were taken in one dav. The seal fishery, which could be carried on here as well in winter as in summer, might be turned to prolitalde accoui\t, large numbers of these animals being visible during the former season, and thousands of them being observed in the summer and autumn at the entrance of almost all the bays and rivers, where they remain com- paratively unmolested. Hunting on the islant" Is of considerable value, though of far less importance than its fisheries. The animals, whose skins are of marketable value, wliich are found on the island, are black bears, wldch are very abundant, otters, martens, and the silver, grey, red, black, and, sometimes, the white fox. Great quantities of ducks, geese, and other wild fowl resort to the lakes and the bays of tlie island. Tiiere are numerous natural harbors round the coast, which are comparatively safe in all winds— Ellis Bay and Fox Bay being especially so. The former is distant about eight miles from West End Light- house on tlie soutli side ; the latter is fifteen, miles from Heath Point Lighthouse on the north side. Ellis Bay is two miles in breadth, with deep water three-fourths of a mile from sliore, but only with from three to four fathoms in shore. Fox Bay is smaller ; the distance across its mouth is only one mile and a half, with deep water in the centre, extending up the bay nine- tenths of a mile, but shoaling near the shores of it ; the whole length of the bay being one mile and two-tenths. Mr. Ga- mache, who has resided at Ellis Bay for upwards of twenty-tive years, states the harbor to be perfectly secure in all winds and at all periods. A gentleman from England, in 1853, a member of Lloyd's, who visited the island to inspect a vessel whicli had been wrecked on the coast, declared he considered the harbor a "most excellent one," 80 much so that lie should, on his re- turn to England, make it especially known at Lloyd's, and added furtlier, that there are many places in England, and other countries, carrying on large maritime com- merce, which have not got so deep, so spacious, or so safe a harbor as Ellin Bay. This gentleman had been three times round the world as c:iptain of an East Judiaman. The excellent position of Anticosti in re- gard to snips, commerce, &c., is easily seen, when we remember that every vessel must take one or other of the channels formed by the island, whether having passed from the Atlantic, or intending to pass to tlie ocean through the straits of Belle Isle, through the more frequented passage be- tween Newfoundland and Cape Breton, or through the Gut of Canso, or whether run- ning between Quebec and those portions of Canada and of the maritime provinces lying on the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Vessels taking either of tiie channels formed by the position of the island must pass close to the island in consequence of tlie comparative narrowness of the northern one^ and of the strong southeast current which always runs along the southern channel. To avoid this, and the risk of being driven on the rock-bound coast of the south shore of the Gulf and river, vessels generally stand out till they make the west jioint of Anticosti, close to Ellis Bay. The inner anchorage or this bay has a dcptli of from three to four fathoms at low water, with very excellent holding ground (gravel and mud) ; tbe outer portion of the anchorage could be materi- ally improved at a trilling expense, so as to be able to contain in safety, during all winds, almost any number of vessels of the largest size. If docks were constructed at Ellis Bay, with a patent slip, it would be an admirable pc ,ition for the repair of vessels stranded or damaged throughout the Lower St. Lawrence, luauy of wldch are M ANT Lovems Gazetteer of [152] British North America. ANT ! t ill now broken up by the sea or dismantled by wreckers before asBlHtance can be obtaineu from Quebec. For steam tugs employed for the relief of vessels in distress, this might be made an excellent station ; here, also, a few steamers or gunboats could com- mand the two entrances to the river, or send out from tliis convenient and central spot cruisers to any part of the Gulf. 'J'he establishment of depots of coal at Ellis Bay and Fox river would bo an advan- tage the importar.ce of which it would be hard to estimate, coal being easily nrocura- ble from Nova Scotia, antl laid aown at either harbor at a cost not exceeding from ^3.50 to $i per ton. Considering the fact that upwards of 2000 vessels annually arrive from Europe in the season, besides a large fleet of coasting and Ashing vessels, all of which must pass within sight of the island, some idea can be formed of the importance to be attached to the position and capabili- ties of these harbors for commercial pur- poses. Ten years ago a company *?a8 formed for the purpose of colonizing the island of Anticosti, and for working and developing its resources. They laid out town sites at Ellis Bay, F'ox Bay, and at the South West Point, and tiivided the island into twenty counties, of about 120,0(tO acres each, sub- divided into live townships. In 1880 the Government of Gan&da laid a submarine telegraph cable connecting the island with tlie mainland, an inestimable boon to the shipping trade. Sir William E. Logan, in his Geographi- cal Report of Canada, after referring to de- posits f>f peat, or peat-bogs, in different parts of Canada, says : " The most extensive peat deposits in Canada are found in Anti- costi, along the low land on the coast of the island from Heath Point to within eight or nine miles of South West Point. The thick- ness of the peat, as observed on the coast, was from three to ten feet, and it appears to be of an excellent quality. The height of this plain may be, on an average, tiftoen feet above high water mark, and it can bo easily drained and worked. Between South West Point and the west end of the island there are many peat-bogs, varying in superlices from 100 to 1000 acres." Near South West Point there are several large salt ponds, which, if labor was abun- dant, might be turned to a profitable ac- count in the manufacture of salt, a manu- facture which would become of some value to a great part of our North American fish- eries, which, as well as the greater part of Canada, are now supplied with salt from the Bahamas, and from p]ngland or the United States : and for curing tish and pro- visions, bay salt, formed from the sea and from salt pondc, is the most valuable. In consequence of there not having been a snftlcient supply of salt upon the island, an immense quantity of flsh caught at Anti- costi a year or two ago were rendered use- less. This was alluded to by Commander Lavoie, of ♦' La Canadienne," In his report for 1871, where he says that " fishing was abundant this season, the yield being reck- oned at 9600 quintals of cod, . . bnt the greatest drawback arose from the ditiiculty experienced in curing tish, from the want of salt." Some of the Bahama islands are re- tained merely on account of the salt ponds which they contain, and in Ceylon a large revenue is derived from the salt works car- ried on in that island. In Commander Lavoie's report for 1872, quoted from before, he says that geologists and others who have visiteil the interior of the island, agree in stating that its soil is rich, and that more than one million acres can be cultivated with mlvantage. Clear- ances have already been made at Gamache (Ellis' Bay), at South West and West Point, where vegetables and grains of the district of Montreal and Quebec tlourish. Stories, however, of the numerous wrecks that have occurred on the shore of Anticosti have spread such terror that up to 1861 nobody had thought of settling there. The reefs of flat limestone, extending, in some j tarts, to one mile and a quarter from the shore ; the want of anchorage of a groat portion of the coast, and above all, the frequent fogs, jus- tify this belief, in part, but not in so great a degree as to render r'^'';onable the dread with which they seem to have been regarded, and which can only have arisen from the natural tendency to magnify danger, of which we have no precise knowledge. Four lighthouses are erected on Anticos- ti ; one on Heath Point, at the east end of the island ; another at South West Point, the third on West Point ; and the fourth at South Point, at Bagot's Bluff. That on Heath Point is a round tower, built of a grayish white limestone, quarried on the island, and is ninety feet high. It shows at an elevation of 1 10 feet above the level of high water, a fixed white light, which in clear weather should be vislblf from a dis- tance of fifteen miles. The lighthouse on South West Point is built of the same stone as the previous one quarried on the spot, is seventj'-flve feet high, and of the usual conical form, exhibits a white light, which revolves every three minutes, and is visible at fifteen miles, with the eye ten feet above the sea ; with the eye at fifty feet, it can be seen nineteen and a-half miles, and with the eye at an elevation of 100 feet, it will be visible about twenty- three miles. The third lighthouse, erected on the West Point of Anticosti, is a circular stone tower, faced with fire brick, 109 feet in height. It exhibits, at 112 feet above high water mark, a fixed white light, visible from a distance of fifteen miles. A gun is fired every hour during fog and snow- storms. The llg^^^house at South Point is*a comparatively new building, the light hav- ing been first exhibited in August, 1870. It Is a hexagonal tower, painted white, seventy- five feet above high-water mark, with a re- volving white flash light every twenty sec- onds. It should be seen at from fourteen to eighteen miles distance, and is visible from all points of approach. A powerful steam fog- whistle is also stationed there, about 300 feet east of the lighthouse. In foggy weather, and during snow-storms, thia Al ANT LoioelVs Gazetteer of [i:i3j British North America. APS '^ is sounded ten seconds in every trdnute, tliuH making an interval of fifty secondn be- tween each bliist, which can be heard in culm weather, or with the wind, from nine to fifteen miles disianco, and in stormy weather, or against the wind, from three to eight nr-ales. The lights arc exhibited from the 1st of April to the 20th of December of each year. Provision depots are also established on the island for the relief of wrecked crews. Th*^ first of those is at Ellis Bay, the second : I he lighthouse at the South West Point ; the third, which was formerly at Shallop Creek (Jupiter River), was tills year re- moved to South Point, where the new light- house and steam fog-whistle have been lo- cated, and the fourth at the light house on Heath Point. Direction boards are erected on the shore, or nailed to trees, from which the branches have been lopped off, near the beach, and on various points of the coast. These boards are intended to point out to shipwrecked persons the way to the provi- eioii posts. Vessels are more frequently lost on Anti- costi in the bad weather, at the close of navigation, than at any other time, and their crows would perish from want and the rigors of a Canadian winter, if it were not for this humane provision, made by Government, in the absence of settlements on the island. As, however, the population begin to increase, and dwellings become scattered about, there will be the less ur- gent need for these depots. The currents around the Island of Anti- costi are very variable and uncertain, and to this cause may be attributed many of tlie shipwrecks that have from time to time oc- curred there. At the north point of the island there is a current almost always set- ting over to the north-east, l>eing turned in that direction by the west end of the island. Confined as it is, within a narrow channel, it is very strong. All along the south coast, between the south-west and west points, the swell and the current both set in shore, and the bottom being of clean fiat limestone, ■will not hold an anchor. It is also by no means uncommon in sunnner for the breeze to die away suddenly to a calm. The tide around the island only rises from four to seven feet. It not unfrequently happens that when the current from the northward is running, anothorl'roui W.N.W. comes along thesouth coast, in which case they meet at a reef off Heath Point, and cause a great ripple or irregular breaking sea. This takes place when a fresh breeze is blowing along the land on either aide of the island. A win eight miles. In the space between the winds there is often ob- serred a high colle.

Wrapi>ed in sleep, they quietly awaited the return of day to resume their journey. Hut during the still hours of night the Iroquois liad conipa.ssed his slum- bering foe. Laden witli birch bark faggots and other combustibles, tho Iroiiuois sdent- \y surrounded the cave ; the faggots were piled around it ; the torch applied. Tho Alicmacs, terror stricken, seize tlieir arms and prepare to rush through the tlamos and sell ttieir lives as dearly as possible, but a shower of poisoned arrows mows them down, the tomahawk completes the scene, and history mentions but live out of tho two hundred who escaped with their lives.

BRITISH AMERICA comprises, with the exception of A-laska, the whole of North America N. of parallel of 49°, together with some irregular portions, including New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, stretching south to lat. 43° 30' N., and the triangular portion of which, Quebec; and Ontario, form the base, the apex extending S. to lat. 41° 66' N. This vast territory is bounded E. by the Atlantic, Davis' strait, and Baffin's bay, N. by the Arctic ocean, N.W, by Alaska, W, by the Pacific, and S. by the United States. It comprehends the prov- inces of Quebec, Ontario, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, including the Island of Cape Breton, Prince Edward Island, Newfound- land, Manitoba, British Columbia, and the NorUi West Territories. Generally speak- ing British America is a level country. With the exception of tlie Rocky Moun- tains, on the W,, it has but few elevations, and these are for tlie most part of inconsid- erable height. The coast has numerous indentations, the most reni.arkable of which, on the E., are the Gulf of St. Law- rence and Hudson's b.iy. The latter, cora- niuiiicatincwitii the Atlantic through Hud- son's and Frobisher's straits, and with the Arctic ocean by means of Fox channel. Gulf of Bootliia, Prince Regent's, and other inlets, penetrates to near the centre of the continent, forming one of the most extensive inland seas on the globe. The surface of the country is extremely diver- sified with rivers and lakes. The St. Law- rence, a river of immense volume, over 2000 miles in length, forms the outlet of the great Canadian lakes. The Saskatche- wan, rising in the Rocky Mountains, trav- erses 18° 01 Ion., or a distance of at least 900 miles, and falls into the great Lake Winni- ■ peg, in .'')3'* N. lat. This lake is connected with Hudson's bay by the Nelson or Port Nelson River, about 500 miles in length. Lake Athabaska, situated about lat. 58° N., and Ion. IIO'' W., receives, among others, the Peace River and the Athabaska, a large stream, rising in the Rocky Moun- tains, near the source of the Columbia. The Mackenzie, enteringf the Arctic ocean, is one of the largest rivers on the globe. It flows through about 16° of lat. E. of the Mackenzie, and flowing into the Arctic ocean, are the Coppermine and Fish Rivers. The basin of tiie Winnipeg may be consid- ered as a continuation of that of the St. Lawrence, or as a portion of one high pla- teau divided into two parts. There can be but little doubt that a very great, if not the greater part of the vast region included un- der the name of British America, is doomed to everlasting sterility, on account of the li .

BRI severity of the climate. The most north- ern station in which vegetation has been dis- covered is Melville island, 740 5,)' n. lat.. where tlie mean annual temperature is from 1 to 2 ilegrees below zero, and that of »Iul.v, about 42^. The H|)ecie8 that exist here con- sist chiefly of saxifrages, grasses, cruciform plants, mosses, and lichens ; not a tree or even a bush is able to rear its head ; nor, Indeed, is there a single plant or woody structure except a little willow (Sali.v ar- tica) which rises 6 inches high. It is in these latituiles that the red snow plant (Protorcocus nitmlis), that most simple of cryptogamic vegetables, exists in all its beauty. As we advance southward, vast forests of spruce flra {Abies alba and nifira), among which grow the reindeer moss ami other lichens, overspread the land. To those are added different kinds of wild cur- rants and berries, and a variety of papili- onaceous plants, which abound in the open plains. With these are combined, as we 1 continue to advance, the majestic poplars l of Canada (Popuiws mwfsowica, and others), I birches {liefula pnpyracea and popuUolia), t| and many sorts of oaks and ashes, together with butternuts (Juglann Cenerea) and hickories (Cari/a alba and amara). The animals hunted for food are doer, of four different kinds, buffaloes, rabbits, and por- cupines. Wild fowl are also lumerous, especially grouse, wild geese, and ducks. The prin'cipal objects of traffic, especially in the most northern parts, are the skins of fur-clad animals, of which there are here a great variety. The chief tribes inhabiting the Northern regions are the Chippewas, the Assiniboines, the Crees, the Slave In- dians, and the Esquimaux. Of all these tribes the Crees have the best character, being active, honest, and hospitable, kind to their women , and fondly attached to their children. For an account of that portion of British America under cultivation see Can- ada, Dominion of. BRITISH COLUMBIA, formerly NEW CALEDONIA, a province of the Dominion of Canada, bounded on the N. by the 60th parallel of latitude ; E. by the main chain of the Rocky Mountains ; S. by the United States ; and W. by Alaska, the Pac 'ic Ocean and Queen Charlotte's Sound. Lenj, i 7641/2 miles ; breadth about 400 miles. Are . 3.50,000 sqn.are miles. The coast line is^ deeply indented. The northern part of the colony is diversified with mountain, lake and river ; is of extraordinary fertility, pro- ducing all Canatiian cerenls and vegetables, and fruits in larger measure than any part of even Ontario, and with a mining region (Oinineca) at tlie head waters of the Peace, Skeena, and Fraser rivers, which, though very imperfectly explored (owing to their inaccessibility to general travel), gives in- dications of being very rich in gold and sil- ver. The southern and middle part in- cludes the rich gold valley of Fraser River, and is well adapted for pasturage, and also, with irrigation, for agriculture ; some parts, however, such as the Chilcotin plains, and the great and beautiful valley of the Okan- agon, require no artificial irrigation, nor 12 does any part of the seaboard. Throughout the whole extent of the province there is an abt'ndance of forest land, the timber on wliich is of the most valuable description. One kind especially, the Douglas pine, yields spars from 90 to 100 feet In length, and from 20 to 24 inches in diameter. The tree is very often from 150 to 300 feet in length, without knots or branches, and the diameter varies from six to ten feel, and in quality is about twice as strong as (Canadian red pine, and being more gummy, is more durable and takes a better hold. At Bur- ranl Inlet, 9 miles from New Westminster, there are pine trees 27 to 30 feet in diame- ter. The yearly exports of timber amount to about ?250,o6o, but the vast forests have hardly been touclied. The mineral resources of British Colum- bia are very great. Gold is found all along the Fraser and Thompson Rivers, and in great abundance in the Cariboo district, tlie yield in thai one localitv exceeding, in 1870, one million dollars, while the yield of the entire province for the nast ten years has exceeded twenty-two million dollars. Silver and copper are also to be had in abundance, but the mines have not as yet been very largely worked. The tnie wealth of the province, however, is its coal tields, which are inexhaustible, easy of access and easily worked. Bituminous coal is found on the mainland and on Vancouver Island ; and anthracite coal on Queen Charlotte Island. The latter has been sold in San Francisco for ?20 per ton. The fisheries, which will some day prove a source of national wealth, are amongst the most valuable known. The climate or British Columbia is mild and fa- vorable enough to allow animals to live in the open air throughout the winter, and in many parts the plains and hills are covered with a herb called bunch grass, which pos- sesses highly nutritious qualities and keeps cattle in excellent condition during the whole winter. Winter lasts from Novem- ber till March ; but snow seldom remains long on the gniund. The prevailing winds are from the N. in summer, and from the S. and W. in winter. Tlie area of the land fit for agricultural settlement is estimated at 2.50,000 square miles, diversified by hill ami dale, and watered by numerous streams and lakes. Tlie soil varies from a deep black vegetable loam to a light brown, loamy eartli ; tlie hills supplying slate and building stone. Wlieat, barley, potatoes, turnips, apples, pears, &c. , grow luxuriantlv. The country is rich in fur-bearing ani- mals, of which the principal are the black, brown and grizzly bears, lynx, marten ana beaver. The annual product of the fur trade amounts to between $200,000 and $250,000. Shipbuilding is a branch of trade which promises to assume large proportions. Manufactures are yet in their irfancy. Chief among the rivers of the country is tlie great Fraser River, which pursues a rapid course between steep and rocky banks, until, approaching the sea, it presents a fertile and finely wooded valley from 60 to \ BRI LovelVs Gazetteer of [178] British North America. BRI I :ll 60 miles In length. 'Jlie total length of the FraHor lliver iu about 700 miles. The Thompson river surpasses the Fraser in the richness of its scenery, and llows through one of the niost beautiful countries in the world. The Columbia is another noble stream. It enters the United States at Fort Shepherd, after a course of nearly 800 miles in British territory. Total length about 1200 miles. The means of communication with the interior of liritish Columbia are very good. Steamers ascend ilie Fraser River over 100 miles, to the head of navigation, and for over 400 miles beyond this there is an ex- cellent gravelled road, construtti'd by the government at great expense. Biirraid In- let is the largest and hiu^Ht harbor on the mainland, and one of its ports (Port Moody) will be the terminus of the Canada Pacific railway. British 'Jolumbia consists of two perfect- ly distinct/ )mrts, the mainland above de- scribed and Vancouver Island. This island is the largest in the Pacitic, being 27>< miles long, and 40 to .50 wide. It in separated jfrom the mainland by the Straits of Fuoa, which are about 16 miles in width, and by the Gulf of Georgia, which varios from 30 miles in wiilHi to a narrowness that is brMgeable, viz. : at Valde's Island. The «urlace is marked by mountain ranges and extensive plains. The soil is productive. The Island is noted for its coal mines. Gold liaii also been found. The harbors are nu- inerous and excellent, aiul Esquimalt Har- hor, which is the naval station, is also re- ferred to as not unlikely to prove the ter- inintui of the Canada Pacific railway. The public allairs of British Columbia are administered by a Lieutenant Govern- or, an Exe<;ntive Council of five members, Hud a Legislative Assembly composed of 25 represeutatives elected eveiy four years. Justice in lUspeused by a chioi justice and four assistant*. Education Ls free to all ; the schools are non-sectarian. Victoria, Vancouver Island, Is the capital of the province, and the seat of the see of the Lord Bishop of British Columbia. It is situated on a narrow inlet, which, com- pletely landlocked, gives accommodation to all vessels wliose draught of water does not exceed IK feet. It is rapidly rising into a large city. Tlie number of arrivals in 1880 wa.s 471 (tons 3.56,fr49), and the clearances 466 (tons 353,6«7). Total value of imports ^1,736,616 ; exports $2,643,570. Mails from Canada to British Columbia and vice versa are conveyed between San Francisco and Victoria by the steamer Prince Alfred, an iron steamship of 900 tons. The service is performed twice a month. Some mailc' are also conveyed by land to Portland or Olympia, and thence reach Vic- toria by another steamer. The Vancouver Island postal service is performed from Vic- toria by the steamer Sir James Douglas, which conveys the mails along the eastern coast as far as Gomox, 130 miles from Vic- toria, stopping at Gowiclian, Maple Bay, ChoniaVnus, NanaimoandComox. Cowlchan is a flourishing place. It possesses good scliools, the only stone chunh in the Prov- ince, and a convent at which the nuns (who are Canadians) teach trades to Indian and half-breed girls. Nanuinio is also a flour- ishing town, with bright prospects for the future. There are hardly any settlements on tlie western coast, and there is, in conse- quence, no postal service. The service to Comox is etti<^i(;nt and regular, and is per- formed with every possible regard to econ- omy. The mails for tlie mainland are des- patched from Victoria. Some, of but little importance, are conveyed by the Sir James Douglas, as far as Nanainio, where the stean.er Otter, belonging to the Hudson's Bay Company, receives the mails for the Kiv(U' Skeena. The other mails, which are by far the most important, are conveyed from Victoria to New Westminster, thence to Yale, and fi-oni Yale to Haikerville. The service from Victoria to New Westminster is performed by the steamer Entirprise, be- longing to tlie Hudson's Bay Company. From New Westminster to Yale, on the Fraser, the mails are conveyed, in summer, by the steamer Lillouet. From Yale to Barkerville, tlie service is performed by means of stages drawn by four or six horses. Upon the Cariboo route, between SoiiaCreek and the mouth of the Quesnel, tlie Fraser is navigable, and the J'/cVorift makes the trip promiitly and safely, and affords to trav- ellers every comfort that can be desired. A steamboat has recently been placed on Lake Tatla, to provide miners with facilities for rea(!liing the mines of the District of Omi- nica more speedily, more safely, and with less fatigue. T"legraph lines extend from Swinomisbi in Washington Territory (United States), to Barkerville, at the extremity of the Cariboo road. There is, besides, a branch line from Matsqui to Burrard Inlet via New West- minster, in addition to a right of way over the line beVongiiig to ihe Western Union Telegraph Company from Swinomish to Vic- toria, which comprises two submarine ca- bles. This line of telegraph, wliich by the act completing the union of Columbia with Canada, became the property of the D<^>- minion, is 569 miles long, in addition to the submarine portion, whi
  • 00 miles, which can now be accomplished in 11 or 12 days, by the San Francisco route ; but by the Canada Pacific Kailway, to be complete I in 18!)0, the distance will bo 2627 miles from Lake Nipissing to its terminus at Port Moody, or 2084 miles from Montreal. We are indebted to M. McLeod, Esq., (son of the late Chief Trader John McLeod, of till! Huilson's Bay Company, and author of "Peace River," 4&c.,) for the following information, as to the fertility of Northern British Columbia : " At Fort St. James, about lat. 54^ 30' N., 2000 feet above the sea, the first barley (five quarts) sown produced live bushels, say about 84 bushels per acre. This was about 60 miles west of McLeod's Fort, which last is the highest post on the Rocky moun- tains. "At Fort Frazer, still further west, on the slope of the Cascade, the first potatoes planted, about a bushel, produced forty- fold." Mr. McLeod estimates the total area of British Columbia at 3.50,000 square miles, and the wheat area at 150,000 square miles, or 96,000 000 acres, being all south of lat. 5.5° N. (although there are fine wheat valleys far beyond N.), islands included. The grass, barley, and vegetable area north of the above— that is, from lat. 55° to 60°N. (north- ern boundary line of British Columbia), and from Ion. 120° W. to American boundary, 141° \V., Mr. McLeod estimates at 100,000 square miles, or, 64,000,000 acres. A consid- able portion, say one-si xtii of these areas, is covered with lakes, numerous, and, like all the rivers, abouiiding with wholesome tish —fish, in fact, is the native staple food. Mr. McLeod further estimates the coast line of British Columbia at 10,000 miles, a predicate on that of Norway : the latter, on actual measurement, having been found to have in its indented line thirteen times the length of its coast in a straight line. In point of fact, the British (Jolunibia coiist i> much more, and more deeply indented than that of Nurwav, some of the inlets running in upwards of fifty miles. The inlets are full of salmon and other fistli. BRITISH HARBOR, a fishing settloinent on the north shore of Trinity Bay, Nfld., 26 miles from Heart's Content. Pop. ItJO.

CALEDONIA, or SENPXA, an incoriK)- rated village in Haldiniand couiidary between Quebec and New Brunswick, from the State of Maine to the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Be- tween this range and the Cobequid Moun-. tains, with which it runs parallel, is an ex-* tensive plateau of fertile lands embracing nearly the whole of New Brunswick aiid a large part of Nova Scotia. The coast of Labrador is mountainous. The mountain formations of the country lying between the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the Ri ky Mountains assume a different dire'^tion from the lower mountain ranges above re- ferred to. The country presents a terraced character ; the navigation of the principal streams is obstructed by numerous falls and rapids, the result of convulsions of no ordinary nature. The principal part of the mountainous districts runs in the direction of the great rivers and lakes lying between the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the Rocky Mountains. On either side of the valley of the estuary of the St. Lawrence is a range of mountainous country. That on the north is called the Laurentides. It terminates easterly at the coiist of Labrador and ex- telul^ up the N. side of the Ottawa for 100 miles, then sweeps round to the Thousand Islands near Kingston, then gains the southern extremity of Georgian Bay, con- tinues along the eastern and northern shores of Lake Huron and Lake Superior, and ultimately reaches the Arctic Ocean ; Its whole course is about 3500 miles. This chain v»»rles from hills of 200 feet to that of mouuialns, culminating near Lake Supe- rior to a height of 2100 feet. It gives the CAN Lo'oelVs Gazetteer of [187] British North America. CAN" ipenor, Ocean ; , Tbia that of Supe- ves tba water slied separating the tributaries of the St. Lawrence from those of Hudson's Bay ; but beyond the basin of the St. Lawrence it is traversed by two attluents of this bay, the Saskatchewan and the Churchill, the former taking its source in the Itocky Mountains ; wliile, still farther on, the range becomes the limit of Hudson's Bay rivers, dividing tlieir sources and those of the Back river and other streams, for 800 miles, from the Mackenzie River. In the valleys and lower parts of the Laurentian region there are considerable areas of good land, having a deep, rich soil, and bearing heavy timber. In the higher parts the rigor of the climate scarcely permits tlie cultiva- tion of the cereals. The southern range (called Notre Dame Mountains) is a spur of the AUeghanies, which, commencing at the Gulf of St. Lawrence, forms a prolonged chain of mountains through the States as far as Virginia. In its course through Can- ada it runs nearly parallel to the River St. Lawrence at from 20 to 50 miles distance ; and passes south of Lake Champlaln. Its ereatest elevation on the Canadian side (the Shickshock Mountains on the Gasp6 peninsula), is about 4000 feuc. The Blue Mountains on the S. side of Georgian Bay attairi a height of 1900 feet above the level of Ijake Huron. The country lying between Lake Superior and the Rockv Mountains is intersected by numerous cliains of moun- tains, with extensive valleys of fertile lands intervening. The Rocky Mountains, the dominant ridge of the continent, stretch from Alaska to California. Some peaks on Canadian territory attain a height of 15,000 feet- Between these mountains and the Pacific coast, are the Selkirk Mountains, the Gold Range, the great central hilly plateau or table land, and the Coast or Cas- cade Range. All these mountain chains as well as the central plateau have a general N.W. and S.E. course. The Cascade Range is the northward extension of the Sierra Nevada ; the central plateau bears a sim- ilar relation to the great volcanic arid and hilly table land of the State of Nevada ; and the Selkirk and Gold Ranges may be paralleled with the Bitter Root Mountains between Montana and Idaho. The highest points of the Cascade Mountains do not ex- ceed 7000 feet. The central plateau has an average elevation of from 1000 to 3000 feet. The Selkirk Mountains, towards the north, in the vicinity of Cariboo and about the sources of the North Thompson, have a somewhat greater average elevation than the Cascades. The higliest known summits of the Rocky Mountains are Mount Murchi- Bon, Mount Hooper and Mount Brown, es- timated at from 12,000 to 15,000 feet. They have never been ascended. Of the princi- pal part of the territory lying around Hud- son's Bay little is yet known . Mn«rrt/.9.— The Dominion of Canada con- tains within its limits almost every variety of mineral wealth. The gold deposits of British Columbia and Nova Scotia are among *he richest existing on the globe. The gok ar^ri of Nova Scotia is known to Spread c« or an extent of at least 6000 square miles. Tlie lodes are regular in structure, and preserve their richness to depths of 200 and 300 feet. The gold extracted from quartz rock is remarkably tine and pure. In British Columbia tlie precious metal is not contined to any one section. It is found all along the Fraser and Thompson Rivers, agidn in the north along tlie Peace and Omineca rivers, and on Germansen Creek and on Vancouver Island. From the United States frontier to the 53rd degree of latitude, and for a width of from 1 to 200 miles, gold is found nearly everywhere. Prolitable gold mines are worked in the county of Beauce, Quebec. Gold is also found in the county of Hastings, Ontario ; on the banks of the Shiktehawk, a tributary of the River St. John (New Brunswick) ; on the Atha- basca, McLeod,and Pembina Rivers, which How into the Arctic Ocean ; and on the North Saskatchewan, Red Deer, and Bow rivers, flowing into Lake Winnipeg. The Blackieet Indians have been so Iiostile to miners in the Saskatchewan country that it was only in the neighborhood of the Hud- son's Bay Company's forts that continued washing for gold coulil be carried on . In the neighborhood of Fort Edmunton from S3 to 5^12 worth of gold has frequently been washed in a day by one man. Miners who have visited the gold lields of the North West Territories proclaim them to be enor- mously rich. Extraordinary deposits of silver ore are found in several islands on the N. shore of Lake Superior ; also in numerous veins of argentiferous galena scattered over that portioii of Quebec to the south of the St. Lawrence. Silver is also found in Nova Scotia, and in the Fraser valley in British Columbia. Copper is abundant in every portion of the Dominion —in British Columbia, the North West Terri- tories, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. The copper mines of Ontario are very valuable. On the shores of Lakes Huron and Superior copp(3r is found in large quantities. In the province of Quebec ex- tensive and exceedingly productive mining operations are carried on in the Eastern townships, at the Harvey, Hartford, Hunt- ingdon, Capel, and Ives mines. The Cop- per mountains of the North West Terri- tories are extiaordinarily rich, but dirticult of access. Lead occurs In many places in the Laurentian range. A mine in rear of Ivingston, Ont., has exposed a deposit of re- markable richness and extent. Lead is also found on the N. shore of Lake Superior, often rich in silver, on the shores of Gas|)6, in the Esistern townships, and in Now Brunswick and Nova Scoda. Veins of lead traverse the rocks of Coroi latlon Gulf. Iron occurs in prodigious quantities in the Lau- rentian range. At Hull, near Otttiwa, there is a bed about 90 feet in thickness contain- ing not less than 250,000,000 tons of iron ; on the Rideau canal there is a bed 200 feet thick containing double the above amount ; and at Marmora there are live beds which are computed to contain an aggregate of 1,000, 000,000 tons. These extraordinary deposits are of the magnetic species, yielding 60 to 70 per cent, of pure iron, and occur in tho ! 11 CAN LovelVs Gazetteer of [188] British North America. CAN ^' I ■ame geological formation from which the celobrated Swedish iron is made. Extensive beds of good iron occur in the Eastern town- ships, also in the neijghborhood of Lake Kipissing; and at varu>us localities along the N. shore of tlie St. Lawrence consider- able quantities of bog iron ore are found. Near Throe Rivers, cast and wrought iron of a very superior quality has been produced from this ore for upwards of a century. At the mouth of the Moisic Kiver, about 3U0 miles below Quebec, there is a vast deposit of magnetite, estimated to contain about 20,000,000 tons of iron. It lies on the surface in the shape of black sand, perfectly free from sulphur or phosphorous, and the iron manufactured is of superior quality and pe- culiarly suited to the manufacture of the iineixestern peninsula ; and though one part after another may be exhausted and abandoned, and the exhaustion of the whole resion is but a matter of time, it will prob- ably be long before oil boring has travelled over the whole productive district. On the Gasp^ peninsula natural springs yielding small amounts of petroleum are found over a considerable area. The oil in this resiou occurs in the upper Silurian rocks. There are no less than 60,(XK) acres ol peat lands in Quebec, not including the great bed in the Island of Anticosti, wnich contains as many more, and at least 30,000 acres in Ontai;}o. In many of tiie lK>g8 tlie peat attains a depth of 10 and 20 feet, and even more. It is com- pressed and used for various purposes, with success, instead of coal. Of the other min- erals coal is the most important. It is found in Nova Scotia, in New Brunswick, in Brit- ish Columbia, and in the North West Terri- tories. The coal fields of Nova Scotia are of vast extent and value, and have been worked more or less since tlie first settlement of the colony by the British. The most important mines are at Pictou and Sydney, C.B. They contain a sutticient quantity to supply the whole steam navy of Great Britain for many centuries to come, and also to meet amply the demands of the other North American colonies bordering on the Atlantic. The coal mines of British Columbia are even more valuable than the gold. Bituminous coal is found on Vancou .-er island in several places, especially along the East coast. The coal is of fair quality, superior to the Scotch, but not equal to the Welsh. Veins of coal have been found in other pai-ts of the prov- ince. Anthracite coal, very excellent in quality, is found on Queen Charlotte's is- land. The coal fields of New Brunswick cover an area of about 10,000 square miles. The Albert coal is one of the most beautiful of all carboniferous products ; it is jet black, brilliant and lustrous, with a conchoidal fracture, and is extremely brittle. It is chiefly used in the manufacture of illumi- nating oils (of which it yields, by distillation, a large per centage, and of the very best quality) and gas. Tlie coal mined at Grand Lake is of an excellent quality, being hard, rather lustrous, giving out much heat in burning, and lasting longer than most other coal. The great coal beu of the North West Territories commences 150 miles East of the Rocky mountains. It is 300 miles in width, and extends over 16 degrees of latitude, to the Arctic Ocean. There are no coal mines in Ontario or Quebec. Salt springs, strongly saturated, are numerous in New Brunswick, and salt wells of great richness are worked in the counties of Ontario bordering on Lake Huron. Agates, jaapers, diamonds, rubies, pearls, feldspar, pmethysts, carnelians, chal- cedonies, cairngorms, porphyries, &c., are found in several parts of the Dominion. Gulfs, Bays, Rivers, Lakes, &c. — The coasts of the Dominion have numerous in- dentations, the most remarkable of which are Hudson's bay — one of the most exten- sive inland seas on the globe— the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and the Gulf of Georgia. The hydrographical basin of the St. Law- rence and its estuary comprises an area of about 530,000 square miles. In form it pre- sents an irregular parallelogram running nearly S.W. for about 900 miles, with a pretty uniform breadth of 250 miles ; the I southern side in its farther progress sweep- CAN LavelVs Gazetteer of [189] British North America. CAN I)re- iiming Iwitb a the |8weep- ing round in a wide 8emiH;ircle, the di- ameter of which extends about 900 miles to the N.W. The Great Lakes into which the river expands — Superior, Huron, Michigan, St. Clair, Erie and Ontario,— with its estu- arv, have an area of about 130,000 square miles, leaving for the lands drained by the river an area of 400,000 square miles. At lea^t 330,000 square miles of these belong to Canada, the remainder constitutes a part of the United States. With the exception of about 50,000 square miles (including the whole of the Gaap^ peninsula) in the eastern part of Quebec, the Canadian portion lies wholly on the N. side of the river, while the only part of the United States which does so is situated at the west end of Lake Super- ior. The principal rivers flowing into the St. Lawrence are the Ottawa, 800 miles loiifj, with many large tributaries; the St. Mau- rice, 400 miles long; the Batiscan, tlie (JLaudifere, the Richelieu, the St. Francis, the Hamilton, the Moisic, the liomaine, the Ste. Anne, and the mighty Saguenay. Tlie other cliief rivers in the Dominion are the Saskatchewan, which rises in tlie liocky Mountains, traverses 15° of longitude, or a distance of at least 900 miles, and falls into the great Lake Winnipeg in latitude 55*^ N. This lake is connected with Hudson's Bay by the Nelson River, about 500 miles in length. Lake Athabasca, situated about lat. 69" N., and Ion. 110° W.. receives among others, the Peace River and the Athabasca, a large stream rising in the Rocky Moun- tains near the source of the Columbia. The Fraser River, the golden stream of British Columbia, rises in the Rocky Mountains and enters the Pacific after a course of about 700 miles. The Columbia, IL'OO miles long, also rides in the Rocky Mountains. The Mackenzie, entering the Arctic Ocean, is one of the largest rivers on the globe. East of it, and also flowing into the Arctic, are the Coppermine and Fish Rivers. The Oatineau, the Keopawa, the Matawan, the Mistassini, the Churchill, the Dumoine, the Miramiclii, the Restigouche, the St. John, the Avon, the Clyde, the Grand, the Trent, the Nipigon and the Stickeen, are all im- portant rivers, and the Great Bear, Great Slave, Manitoba, Lake of the Woods, Mistissini, St. John, Nipigon and Nip- issiiig are all magniticent lakes, but they are so fully described among the rivers and lakes that it is unnecessary to repeat them here. The rivers and lakes of the Dominion number several thousantls. Of these descriptions of over 2000, which in- clude all the most important, are given in another part of this work. Climate.— ThQ cliinat(! of Canada is nearly the same as that of Norway, Sweden, St. Petersburg, and the South of Iceland. Both the heat of summer and the cold of winter are much greater than in the corresponding latitudes of Europe. The climate of Nova Scotia is extremely temperate, considering its northern latitude. In Halifax and the eastern counties the mi^rcury seldom rises in summer above 86'^ in the shade, and in winter it la not often down to zero. In the interior the winter is about the same, but the summer is considerably warmer. The cli- mate of New Brunswick is subject to great extremes of heat and cold ; the ther- mometer sometimes rising to lOO'^ during the day and falling in the torest during the night of the same day to 50°. Still the cli- mate is exceedingly healthy and favorable for agricultural operations. The climate of Prince Edward Inland is much milder tlian that of Nova Scotia or New Brunswick, and is remarkably salubrious. The winter is long and cold, but the summer is eminently llttedfor the growth of all ordinary cereals. The winters of Quebec are cold and the summers somewhat similar to those of Fiance. There are at times in winter snow falls of 3 or 4 feet and the thermometer sinks very low ; but the atmosphere is gen- erally dry and exhilarating. The cold, therefore, is not felt to be unplea»int, in fact not nearly so much so as the cold of the winters in England . The climate of Quebec is altogether one of the healthiest under th j sun, as well as one of the most pleasant to live in. The winter of Ontario is much milder than that of Quebec owing to its being near the lakes. Manitoba and the Saskatchewan country have the same sum- mer temperature as the most favored parts of the St. Lawrence valley, as Central Penn- sylvania and Southern New England. The winter isothermal is that of Quebec. The climate of British Columbia varies accord- ing to the locality, owing principally to four causes, greater or lens distance from the sea and from the vicinity of the mountain regions, difference in the' nature aiul quan- tity of the vegetable growth, and difference of level. The low portions near the sea and on Vancouver Island have a moderate cli- mate with ii general range of from 20° in winter to 80° in summer. The temperature on the island is lower than on the mainland owing to the prevailing southern winds. Alone the coast of British Columbia, for l.jO miles inland, the climate is humid, the thermometer rarely falling below 10° or ris- ing above 00°. Rain is abundant during the spring and during the snminRr and autumn. Snow neither falls heavily nor lies long, and the frosts are not severe, ice being seldom more than an inch thick. In the middle districts the summer heal is intense, and in winter mercury commonly freezes. Sod and Productions. — By far the greater part of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Que- bec, Ontario, and the country lying between Lake Superior and the Pacific Ocean and Vancouver Island is admirably adapted for a,<^ricultural pursuits. The soil of Quebec is exceedingly fertile and capable of high cultivation ; the cereals, hay, root crops and fruits grow in abundance and perfection. The great wealth of Ontario is the richness of its soil and the favorable nature of its climate for agri(!ultnral operations. The extreme S.W. district of the province is distinguished by its adaptability to the growth of many fruits, shrubs and flowei-s, which will not come to perfection in an^ other part of Canada. Here the peach ripens in the open air, the finer kinds of grapes grow well, the tulip tree bloBSoma, v\ .1 I'fi ( f s t' , { ,'; 1 IC • 1 til t- 1 I ■ CAN LovelVs Gazetteer of [1,90] British North America, CAN Prince Edward Is enilnenlly agrlcultiiriil and pastural. The far greater portion of the Dominion is still covered wftli foresta, cliietiy white and red pine, immense quan- tities of which are annually exported. The principal trees of British Columbia are the bouglas pine, Menzies llr, yellow llr, bal- sam, hemlock, white pine, cedar, yellow cynro-sH, arbor vitaG, yew, oak, white maple, arbutus, alder, dog wood, aspun, cherry, crab apple, and cottonwuod ; of the North West Territories, poplar and oak, spruce, scrub pines, balsam, aspen and birch ; of Ontario and Quebec, pine, tamarac, balsam, cedar, maple, birch, poplar, ash, elm, clierry, alder, beech, willow, hemlock, etc. ; and o£ Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, oak, beech, birch, maple, ash, poplar, larch, spruce, pine, hendock, etc. Wild Animals. — These comprise thd black bear, grizzly bear, wolf, buffalo, deer, pan- ther, moose, cariboo, wild cat, antelope, prairie dog (a burrowing animal), red fox, silver gray lox, black fox (rare), beaver, nuiskrat, marmot, squirrel, rabbit, weasel, skunk, raccoon, wolverine, marten, mink, seal, lynx, ermine, porcupine. Rocky Mouu- tain sueep, otter, tisher, etc. Among birds there are two species of the eagle, four species of the hawk and four species of the owl ; also wild swans, wild turkeys, wood- cocks, snipes, pigeons, pheasants, ducks of many varieties, grouse, ptarmigan, quail, and wild geese. Among the smaller feath- ered tribe are many beautiful birds — jays, woodpeckers, blackbirds of inuuerous and beautiful varieties, wrens, sparrows, thrush- es, blue birds, larks, robins, whippoorwills, and two species of humming birds. Besides these there are kites, bitterns, herons, crows, kingfishers, partridges, cranes, swal- lows, ravens, etc. There are no less than U3 species of birds in New Brunswick, and a list of the birds of North America pub- liehed in 1856 gives a number of no less than 716. Among reptiles are rattlesnakes and various other kinds of snakes, and liz- ards. Among lish, codfish, salmon, salmon trout, whiteflsh, mackerel, shad, herring, halibut, bass, sturgeon, maskelonge, etc. ; and among shell tish, oysters, crabs, lob- sters and turtles. Manufactures.— The principal articles manufactured in Ontario and Quebec are cloth, linen, furniture, leather, sawn lum- ber, flax, hardware, paper, glass, c^iemicals, soap, boots and shoes, cotton and woollen goods, steam engines and locomotives, sew- ing machines, wooden ware of all descrip- tions, agricultural implements, etc. ; in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, sawn lumber, ships, cotton and woollen goods, boots and shoes, furniture, leather, nails, machinery, gunpowder, paper, steam en- gines, locomotives, etc. The manufactures of Pnnce Edward Island are chiefly for do- mestic purposes. In British Columbia, the manufactures are very few in number, but water power is everywhere abundant. The latter remark applies generallj^ to the whole Dominion. Infcimal Improvements .—The canals of Canada are among its most important pub- the catalpa is not cut down by frost, the chestnut tree bears, and the finest kinds of apples and pears are cultivated. The valley ot the Thames, together with the rich allu- vial fiats which extend from it nortliward to tlie north branch of Bear Creek, and south- ward nearly to the shore of I^ake Erie, is remarkable for its great fertility, and lux- uriant forest growth. The soil is cenerally clay, with covering of rich vegetalde mould, and is covered in tlie natural state with elm, oak, blackwalnut and whitewood trees of large size, togetl»er with fine groves of sugar maule. Towards the mouth of the Thames, and on the borders of Lake St. Clair, is an area of natural prairie of about 30,000 acres. It lies but little above the level of the lake, and is in large part overflowed in time of spring floods. The soil of this prairie is a deep unctuous mould, covered chiefly with grass, v^ith here and there copses of maple, walnut, and elm, and with willows dotting the surface of the plain. Along the shores of i^ake Hiuon and Lak^ Superior oats and barley grow well, but northward, at the di- viding ridge between the waters flowing into Hudson's Bay and into the lakes, it is diflicult to raise even potatoes. The natural vegetation in the lied Kiver and Saskatch- ewan valleys is luxuriant. The soil is an alluvial, black, argillaceous mould, rich in organic deposit, and resting at a depth of li to 4 feet on a tenacious clay soil. Some ^elds at Red River have been known to pro- duce 20 successive crops of wheat without fallow or maimre, tlieyieM being frequently 30 to 40 bushels to the acre. Biirley yields enormous returns, with a wiiglit of from 60 to 55 lbs. to the bushel. Oais thrive well. Potatoes are pnrticularly successful, unsur- passed in quality, and tlie yield remarkably prolific. Turnips, carrots, cabbages and other root crops do nearly as well as pota- toes. Buffaloes winter on tlie prairie grasses up as high as Lake Athabasca, and the horses of the settlers run at large and grow fat on the grasses they pick up m the woods and bottoms. As an agricultural country British Columbia has been much under- estimated. The tracts of arable land are of very great extent. A portion of these, how- ever, require artiflcial irrigation. This is easy to be obtained and not expensive, and lands so irrigated are of Very great fertility, yielding as much as 40 bushels of wheat to the acre. The tracts of land suitable to grazing purposes are of almo&t endless ex- tent. On the ('ariboo road there is a plain 160 miles long and 60 or 80 wide, and between the Thomson and F'raser Rivers there is an Immense tract of arable and grazing land. The hills and plains are covered with bunch grass on which the cattle and horses live all winter, and its nutritive qualities are said to exceed the celebrated blue grass and clover of Virginia. In Nova S4 miles. The St. Ours lock and the Chambly canal connect the St. Lawrence and the Hudson, via the Richelieu river and Lake Cham plain. Distance from Montreal to New York 456 miles. The railway system of Canada is fast as- suming extensive proportions. The first railway was begun In 1836. It was a line 1(1 miles in length, from Laprairie on the St. Lawrence to St. Johns. The road was opened with horses in 1836, and first worked with locomotives in 1837. The first rail- way in Ontario, between Queenstown and Cnippewa, was opened witu horses in 183!). Up to the close of 1H80 there had been con- structed in the Dominion 8102 miles of rail- way, viz. : Railways. miles. Albert 46 Black River valley 36 Brantford, Norfolk and Port Bur- well 3?

Telegraphs.— There are five telegraph companies in the Dominion— the Montreal, the Dominion, tho Now Brunswick, the Nova Scotia, and the Fredericton and St. John. TTie lines of the three latter are leased and worked by the Western Union Telegraph Company. The Montreal is the leading telegraph company In the Dominion. It was incorporated in 1847, three years after the first line was opened in the United States, and has now 22,000 miles of line, and 1700 otllces, including branches. It connects with all parts of the United States and Maritime Provinces, aud with cables to Cuba and Europe, and trans- mits messages to any uf Its stations at 20 cents for 10 words, or 15 cents between places not more than 12 miles apart. The Dominion Company extends from Cape Breton to Samla. Both lines connect with cables for Newfoundland, England, France, &c., for Prince Edward Island, the Island of Anticostl, the Magdalen Island, and the Island of Grand Manan. Postal Service.- -Canada enjoys tho gr«at I 'i ;■ CAN LovelVs Gazetteer of [192] British North America. CAN ( 1^ Kdvantage of cheap postage and an excel- lent HVBtem of postal communicalion. In 1851 , tVio first great step towards cheap i>o9t- Ag(! was taken by the introduction of a uni- form i>o8tage rate of five cents. But it was not until 1KU8 that the nearest approach to tbe British penny post that can be expected was niJKle by the establishment of a uni- form rate of three cents. The result has been highly satisfactory and encouraging. In JJr. llodglns' " School History of Cana- da " (published by Mr. John Ix>vell, in 1866), it is stated that "in 1766, when tho celebrated Benjamin Franklin was Deputy Postmaster General of British North Amer- ica, there were onlv three post ofUces in Canada, and 180 miles of post route, from Montreal to Quebec. In 1791 there were ten post oftices and GOO miles of post route ; in 1830 there were 150 post ottlces and 2500 miles of post route ; in 1840 the number of ottices had been increased to 4()0, and miles of popt route to 57.57." Since the year 1840 the progres.sional growth of the department has continued until, by the report of the Postmaster General for l»80, we fljid that there were in that year 5773 post offices, and 40,611 miles of post route, including British Columbia, Manitoba and the North West Territory. The estimated number of letters by post in the year 1880 was 49,304,000, and CI post cards, 7 ,800,000 ; gross postal reve- nue, $1,648,017 ; postal expenditure, ?2,286,- 611. Patents. — A new Patent Act was passed by the Dominion Parliament in 1872, which opened to all inventors, whether foreigners or residents of Canada, the privilege of tak- ing out patents in Canada, on condition tiiat the articles patented shall be manu- factured in Canada. The opening of the Canadian Patent Office to foreigners has already led to mftny applications for patents by them ; and it is believed that the result will prove to be highly advantageous to the public, and particularly to the manufactur- ing interests of the Dominion. The Act permits the patent to be issued for periods of live, ten or fifteen years at the option of the inventor. About 7 per cent, of the patents issued are for ten years ; about 10 per cent, for fifteen years ; and 83 per cent. for five years. Fisheries.— The fisheries of the Dominion are the finest in the world ; they are almost illimitable, and they are inexhaustible. The ffreat variety and superior quality of the nsh are as remarkable as the multitudes in which they ere found, and supply a wealth that makes full amends for any rigor of climate or defects of soil on any of the coasts in their vicinity. As respects salmon there is a fishing line on the N. shore of the St. Lawrence of over a thousand miles in length, into which very numerous tributa- ries flow. On the S. shore, taking in the coasts of the Maritime Provinces, it is of greater length. In British Columbia salmon are very abundant and of excellent quality. The actual value of the produce of the fish- eries of the Dominion for the season of 1880, for purposes of trade, was 99,570,116, being an ezce«a over that of the preceding year of $114,893. About 1500 decked ves- sels and 17,000 open boats are engaged in the fisheries of the Dominion, employinK some 42,000 men. The estimated number of persons supported, almost entirely, by this industry, in the various fishing commun- ities, exceeds 200,000 souls. ('omm^rce.— According to the last report of the Minister of Customs, the gross value of goods imported into the Duininion of Canada, for the fiscal year ending 30th .June, 1880, was J8G,489,747 ; tho goods en- tered for consumption during uw same periotl and the value of exiMjrts giving a gross aggregate sum of ? 174,401. 205 28 1875 77,886,979 1876 80,966,438 1877 76,>^75,393 1878 79,323,667 1879 71,491,255 1880 87,911,458 Total Tmportt. 9 73,459,644 70,415,165 74,814,339 96,092,971 111,430,527 128,011.281 128,213,582 123,070,283 93,210,346 99,327,962 93,081,787 81,964,427 86,489,747 The chief items of exports for the year 1880, were : Produce of the Mine 9 2,981,613 •' " Fisheries 6,653,347 " " Forest 17,666,693 Animals and their products 18,504,009 Agriculture 37,287,128 Manufactures 4,484,211 The following is an exhibit of the total number and tonnage of vessels built in the Dominion of Canada, and also of those registered in Canada, for the fiscal year end- ing June 30, 1880 : No. 297 Built.

The Dominion of Canada is, therefore, the fourth maritime power in the world. But, in proportion to population, she owns more tonnage than any other country. ferfitocUiofi.— Canada has no national sys- tem of education.

Keligioua instriictiun forms part of the common school system of each section of the Dominion. Jietii/ious Di'iMinlnatinnH. — There Is no State Itttligion in the Dominion of Canaila, all denominations being regarded equally by the (ioverinnent. The clergy depend for subsistence upon the voluntary contribu- tions of their congregations or upon funds appropriated for inis purpose. The princi- pal se^cts are the Episcopalians, lionuiu Catholics, Presbyterians, Methodists, Bai>- tists, and Congre^ationalists. There are 14 Church of England diotieses in Canada, viz. : the Metropolitical diocese of Montreal and the dioceses of Nova Scotia, Fred- ericton, Quebet;, Ontario, Toronto, Niagara, Huron, Algoma, Rupert's Land, British (Jol- umbia, Moosonee, Saskatcliewan, and Atha- basca. There are llJ Koman Calholic dio- ceses, viz.: the archdioceses of Halifax, Que- bec, Toronto, and St. Boniface (Manitoba), and the dioceses of Montreal, Idmouski, Three Rivers, Sherbrooke, St. Bvacintho, (;hiooutiini, Ottawa, Kingston, llandlton, London, Arichat, St. John (N.B.\ Chathani (N.B.), Charlottetown (P.E.I.), Satala (Red River), and Anemour (Macketizio River).

The law of Quebec is derived in ?;reat i>art from French sources. At the Ime of the conquest it consisted, for the most part, of the (Jnutume de. I'aria, and the Edicts and Ordinances of the French kings. Wliere these were silent the Civil (Roman) Law was appealed to, as furnishing rules of written reason. In certain matters the Canon liaw was also in force. Upon the acquisition of the country by Great Uritain. the English ConHtitutlonal and Criminal Laws were introduced, the English form of wills allowed, and English rules respecting evidtuce in commercial cases establlwhed. All t' use laws have from time to time been modltled by the imperial and Cana- dian Parliaments. The Code. Civil de Quebec now Hupersedes all but the English and Statutory Criminal Law. In ITiil, the French Canadian Law was repealed in On- tario (then Upper Canada) and in it-< place was substituted the laws of England. The common law of England is the law of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and British Columbia. The laws of Manitoba are the s.ime as those of Quebec. The Courts of Justice in Ontario are a Court of Error and Appeal, Court of Queen's Bench, Court of Common Pleas, Court of Chancery, Court of Impeachment, Court of Quarter Sessions, Practice Court, Heir and Devisee Court, County Courts, Division Courts and Recorders' Courts. Those in Quebec are a Court of Queen's Bench, Superior Court, Circuit Court, Court of Vice Adiniralty, Court of Quarter Sessions, Court of Special Sessions, and Recorder's Court. Those in New Bruns- wick are a Supreme Court, Court of Vice Admiralty, Court for the trial and punishment of Piracy, Probate Court, Court of Marriape and Divorce, Inferior Court of Common Pleas and General Sessions of the Peace, and Justice Courts. Those in Nova Scotia are a Supreme Court, Court of Vice Admiralty,Court of Error, Court of Probate, Court of Marriage and Divorce, Court of General Sessions of the Peace, and Justice Courts. Those in Prince Edward Island are a Supreme Court of Chancery, Court of Vice Admiralty, Court of Marriage and Divorce, Court of Probate and Wills, and Insolvent Court. In Manitoba there is a Court of Queen's Bench composed of 1 chief and 2 assistant justices ; and in British Columbia a Supreme Court with 1 chief and 4 assistant justices. The Supreme Courts and Courts of Queen's Bench are the highest in the Doraiidon. An appeal lies from their decisions in certain cases to the Supreme Court at Ottawa or to the Privy Council in England. There are in Ontario 3 chief justices, 1 chancellor, 5 puisn^ judges, 2 vice chancellors, and 5 county judges; in Que* bee, 2 chief justices, 16 puisn(^ judges, aim 20 district judges : in New Brunswick, 1 chief justice, 4 puisue judges, and S county pui Prince kdwaiil Island, I cllief justice and 3 pulsn6 judges.

IndiiinK. — The Indians In the Dominion of (Janada are under the superintendence of the .Minister of the Interior, who Is the Superintendent General of Indian Alfairs, and as such has the control and mamige- ment of the lands and property of In- dians. The persons deemed Indians are : 1. All persons of Indian blood, reputed to belong to the particular tribe, band or body of Inuians Interested in such lands or Im- movable property, and their descemlants. 2. All persons residing among such Indians, whose parents were, or are, or either of them was or is, descended on either side from Indians or an Indian reputed to be- long to the particular tribe Interested In such lands, and the descendants of all such pei-sons. S. All women lawfully married to any of the persons included in the above classes, the children, issue oi such mar- riages, and their descendants. None but persons deemed Indians are permitted to settle on Indian lands. From the statement of population contained in the- last ofticial report (1872) it appears that the Indian tribes of Ontario num- ber 12,8«6; of Quebec, 8657; of Nova Scotia, 1,835 ; of Now Brunswick, 1324 ; of British Columbia, 28,520 ; and of the North West Territories, 50.000. The most popu- lous tribes in Ontario are the Six Nation Indians, who. in 1870, were estimated at 2H68 ; the Chippewas of Lake Huron, esti- mated at 1846; the Chippewas of Lake Superior, estimated at 1502 ; and the Mani- toulin Island Indians, estimated at 1,604. The Iroquois, or Six Nation Indians of Ontario, are chiefly descendant of the Iro- quois who adhered to the royal cause durine the American Revolution, and who settled in Upper Canada when the American col- onies established their independetice. They obtained u large grant of land on the Grand river. In the province of Quebec, tlie larg- est bodies are the Nasquapees of the Lower St. Lawrence, numbering 2860, and the Iroquois of Sault St. Louis, numberiiifi; 1650.

After the taking of Quebec the country was placed under mili- tary rule. Tlie French (Janadians were guaranteed the free use of tlieir religion, and their clergy remained in the enjoyment of their former rj;.;' ♦iS. 'ihe ancient crim- iiuil liiw was, however, superseded by the criminal law of Kngland. Jn 1774 a Legis- lutivu Council, composed of 'Z'i members, was appointed to assist the 5,overnor. The American revolution soon after convulsed the continent, and Canndii was again the theatre of contending hoHts. The Ameri- can army of invasion advanced without J i lagfl, Indian Point, opposite Frederlcton, is located a body namboring about JUU. There •re albo about 4UU in Northumberlantl and ^tifi in l<.ent. lu Nuva Scotia, there are a few in every county. The aboriginal in- habitants of the country lying between Ued Klver and the Kooky Mountains are divided Into two groat classes, the I'rairie indiaim And Thick wood Indians— the hrst compris- ing the Hlackfeet with their kindred tribes of iilouds, Luruees, and I'eagius ; as also the Crees of the Saskateliewan and the Asslnlboines of tlie Qu'Ap|>elle ; and the last composed of tiie Hocky Mountain Stonies, the Swampy Crees, and the Sault- eaux of the country lying between Mani- toba and Fort Ellice. The Prairie Indians live on bullalo,and in large camps, and are warlike; the Thick wootT Indians live on deer, &o., in small parties, and are peace- able. The Biackfeet occupy the immenso tract of country between the Saskatchewan and the frontier, a largo portion of which is arid and sandy, being a true extension of the groat American desert, whicli extends from the fertile belt of the Saskatchewan to the borders of Texas. It thus happens that the most active trading relations of the Biackfeet are more easily carrieper Missouri, and the product of their robes, &c., generally finds its way down the waters of the Mis- souri. In British Columbia Indians are found over the whole province. They are generally quiet, peaceable, and very intelli- gent, with great natural power ol obser- yatlon. A large number of them are in- structed by Anglican and Uoman Catholic missionarioH. There are about lifty schools for Intlian children cstablisheil in the Dominion, principally in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec. Some of the teachers are paid out of the Indian fund ; othei-s are supported by various societies. The num- ber of pupils is about 2,000. Among tho functions of the Indian Department are tlie distribution of seed and agricultural imple- ments ; the erection of scliool houses ; the relief of the aged and intirin ; and other like acts of charity and assistance. History .—Ca.um& has its name from the Iroquois wrord Kanala, signifying a collec- tion of huts, and which the early European discoverers mistoolc for the name of the country. It was first discovered, in 1497, by Sebastian Caltot, and partly explored by Jacques Cartier between 1.535 and 1543 ; but the Arst settlement made by Europeans was in 1605, at Port Royal, Acadia (now Anna- polis, Nova Scotia), by de Monts, a French- man. In 1608 a permanent settlement was made by Champiain ujwn tlie present site of Quebec, Canada being then called New France. The mode of colonisation was Bemi-religious. Bands of Jesuit and I\ecol- let missionaries penetrated the countiy in all directions, endeavoring to convert the Indians to the Christian faith. Garrisoned forts were erected at all the prominent points, and the ensuing century was check- ered by contests with the Indians, espe- cially- the Iroquois, a fierce tribe which oontuaoally harassed the French, the latter much ditliculty over large tracts of the ctmi.try, but received a check at Quebec, whore Montgomery fell in 1776. in 17«4 the present limits of New Brunswick were divi"?[h far from satisfying the Frencii Canu^.an party, was, nevertheless, a step in that direction. 'Ihe first I..egislature of Lower Canada met in 1791, that of Upper Canada lit 1792. In 1812 Canada was again disturbed by the war between Great Britain and the Ijidted States, but at its close the colony Blill remained in close connection with the mother country. In 1822 a project for re- uniting Upper and Lower Canada was started. Attempts were made to render the advisers ol the governors responsible to the popular brancii of the Legislature. For some time these eftorts were unsuc- cessful, and the fierceness of the struggle greatly excited the colony. In 1837 the agi- tation was fanned into open violence, and several engagements ensued between the insurgents and royalists. But the years 1840 and 1841 restored tranquillity, the two Canadas being re-united in 1840, by an Im- perial Act, under one administration, and responsible government being definitely established in 1841. The executive cou- sisted of a liOgislative Council, to which the elective principle was applied, a Legis- lative Assembly composed of 130 members, 65 from each section of the province, a Cabinet responsible to the Legislature, and a Governor General appointed by the Queen. The first united parliament met at Kingston in June, 1841. In 1844 the Gov- ernment removed to Montreal. In 1849 the parliament buildings there were destroyed by a mob. The seat of government was at CAN LovelVa Gazetteer of [197) British North America.

In the succesalve elections which hiul biten held during the preceding years it was found that the hos- tile majority from either province In the leglHliituru had increased rather than dlmin- lHh(;d. In IHOl the feeling of antagonlnm came to a (irislB.but as tlie Hequel will show It was only the thick darkness which preceded tlio dawning of ii brighter day, for out of this crisis grew the Dominion of Canad.i. As a remedy for the existing dltHcultieJ the Keforin leaders made overtures to Sir John A. MatHlonald suggesting the adoption of a fodorative system. These overtures were conllally received and a Coalition Govern- ment was formed pledged to the introduc- tion of such a scheme. By a fortunate coincidence, within a month alter the for- mation of the ministry a conference was being arranged at Oharlottetowii for the purpose of discussing the expediency of a union of the Provinces of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island under one government and one legislature. The Canadian Government asked permission to send delegates ; their request was grant- ed, and on the IKth of September, 1864, they mot the Maritime delegates. The confer- ence had met to discuss a Legislative Union— a question with which the Cana- dian delegates had no authority to deal. The proposal to unite the Maritime Prov- inces was looked upon as impracticable ; but the delegates were unanimously of opinion that a union on a larger basis might be etfected. The Canadian dele- gates proposed a further Conference to consider the possibility of a Federal Union, which was agreed to, and the Conference adjourned to meet again at Quebec on the 10th of October. On the dav appointed ib met, and after a session of 18 days the scheme of Confederation was placed before the public. This scheme was, after a time, accepted by the Legislatures or Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Canada, but not by Newfoundland or Prince Edward Island. Delegates were then sent to England, the Union Act was submitted to the Imperial Parliament, passed that body on the 28th of March, 1867, and on the 22nd day of May Her Majesty's proclamati(^n was issued de- claring that the Dominion of Canada should come into existence on the Ist of July, 1867. By this Act " old" Canada was divided into the two provinces of Ontario and Quebec. In 1870 the Government of the Dominion was extended over the North West Terri- tories (out of which the Provinces of Mani- toba and Keewatln were erected), in 1871 over British Columbia, and in 1873 over Prince Edward Island. The island of Newfoundland is still out in the cold, but ouly for a short time. Its destiny is inev- itable : It must form part of the Dominion of Camula, " the brightest Jewel In th« British crown."

CASSIA R is a mineral country, produc- ing gold placer miiing. It was discovered in 1873 Dy^ McCullough and Thibert, who were voyaging from Great Slave Lake to the Pacinc coast. The first and second years of mining the district produced nearly one million dollars of gold per year ; since that time up to 1881, the product has been gradually diminisning, but it is safe to es- timate the amount produced at about $250- 000 per year for the last few years. Cassiar is reached from Victoria by steamer to Fort Wrangel, Alaska Territory, 700 miles (time 4 days) thence by river steamer to Glenora, 140 miles, on Stickeen River (time two days). A fine government trail commences here and brings the traveller to head of Dease Lake, a distance of 84 miles; thence 18 miles by steamer to Laketown— principal town in district— containing Government Offices, Record Office, Gaol, and dwelling houses. 80 miles down Dease River is Syl- vester's Landing, at the mouth of the Mc- Dames Creek ; 12 miles, on good trail, the town is reached, and the mines are working. Defot Creek, 12 miles from Thibert, is also a gold-bearing creek. There are also a num- ber of small creeks in the vicinity paying wages and over, but the former are generally ooueideredthe principal ones. The mail that was sent in from Victoria in earlier years has been discontinued, and now there is only an express to and from Victoria carrying treasure, letters, etc. Goods and supplies oi all kinds are brought in on pack trains from Telegraph Creek, a small town on Stickeen River, 12 miles above Glenora; steamers ascend here at high stage of water only. The country abounds plentifully with fur-bearing animals ; the most nume;'ou8 are tlie bear apd beaver, also land otter, red cross and silver fox, marten, lynx, wolf, mink, muskrat, tlsher, etc., also Cariboo,eIk, moose, and the wild goat on the mountains. On Stickeen River cereals grow well, and vegetables very luxuriantly, such as pota- toes, turnips, cabbage, peas, radish, par- snips, carrots, etc. Wild fruit grows in abundance throughout the country, such as the strawberry, re'd and black currant, raspberry, cranberry (high bush), also the wild " Labrador tea plant. " On Tall Tan— an Indian village 12 miles from Telegraph creek, and a tributary of Stickeen— salmon is caught in abundance, the finest sample of any on tiie Pacific coast. Winters in tlie district are long and generally severe, owing to the high latitude, the place be- ing above 59° north, the thermometer going down to 72° below zero during the winter of 1879 and 1880.

And again : Still stands the forest primeval ; but under the shade of itH brunches Dwells another race, with other customs and lan- guage.

In the tishcrman's cot, the wheel and the loom are still busy ; Maidens si. wear their Norman caps, and thoir kir- tlcs of homespun, And by the evening fire repeat Evangeline's story ; While from its rocky caverns, the deep-voiced neigh- boring Oocan Speaks, nnd in accents disconeolute answers the wail of tho forest. On this very spot In 1756 several hundred Acadians were gathered together in order that they might be transported to other lands, 'rhere are many interesting relics of the Frenc^h Acadians at Grand Pr6.

KINGSTON, a city of Ontario, at one time capital of Upper Canada, situated at the outlet of Lake Ontario, 172 miles W. of Montreal. Lat- 44° 12' N., Ion. 76° 41' W." The city occupies the site of old Fort Fron- . teuac, on the N. E. shore of the river, oppo- site Wolfe Island, having the harbor and shipping in front. The harbor is formed at the mouth of Cataraqui River, which here enters the lake. The west shore is bold, and shipping of any size may lie here in perfect safety. East of the bay the Innd projects southward, terminating In Point Frederick, or Navy Island, beyond which is Haldimand Cove, a deep basin of water, protected by this point on the west, and Point Henry on the east, and guarded from southerly winds by Wolfe Island in front. Kingston is, after Quebec and Halifax, the strongest fort in the Dominion of Canada. Thereisa fort on Messessaga Point, and all other accessible points are secured by bat- teries. There are extensive military works on Navy Point, and on Point Henry is a fortress which completely commands thw harbor and town. A lon^ bridge across Cataraqui Bay connects Kingston with Pittsburg, besides which there are the sub- urbs of barriefleld, French Village, and Williamsville. The city is regularly laid out with streets crossing each otlier at right angles, ^.t is chiefly Duilt of blue lime- stone, waich underlies the town. The streets are lighted with gas, and the houses are partly supplied with water from the bay and partly from wells. Wells of min- eral water, composed chiefly of chloride of sodium and calcium, have been obtained in three instances by boring to the depth of 146, 85, and 76 feet respectively. Among the public buildings are the city hall and mar- ket, court house and gaol, post office, 17 churches, including a Roman Catholic Cathe- «lral, 2 colleges. Mechanics' Institute, Hotel Dieu, General Hospital, House of Industry, the buildings occupied by the several liter- ary and benevolent institutions, and a num- ber of schools. About a mile to the west of the city lies the Provincial Penitentiary, a large and massive stone building surround- ed by a high and most substantial wall, with towerft at the comers. Beyond the Peni- tentiary is the Rock wood Lunatic Asylum. Kingston contains 3 branch banks, 2 tele- graph offices, a number of insurance and assurance agencies, 2 breweries, &c., and has manufactories of Iron castings, mill ma- chinery, steam engines, locomotives, leath- er, soap and candles, boot* and shoes, wood- en ware, brooms, pianos, &c. Ship and boat building is carried on to a great ex- tent, and vessels for both lake and ocean navigation are built and fitted out complete. The commercial affairs of Kingston are reg- ulated by a Board of Trade. The Grand Trunk railway has an important station in rear of the town ; freight trains run to the harbor. A railway is in course of construc- tion from Kingston to Pembroke, distant 120 miles. It now runs to Mississippi, a distance of 61 miles. The Rideau canal, con- necting this port with the Ottawa river, haa made it a place of considerable conmiercial importance. Four newspapers are pub- lished— 2 daily and 2 weekly. The city is divided into 7 wards, and governed by a mayor, board of aldermen and common council. . It returns 1 member to the House of Commons and 1 to the Provincial Legis- lature. It is the seat of the See of the Ro- roan Catholic Bishop of Kingston, and is a port of entry. The total value of imports for 1872 was 86,976,022 ; exports $1,733,222. Pop. 1844, 6840 ; 1861, 13,843 ; 1872, 12,4OT. A settlement was begun here by the French, under De Courcelles, as early as 1672, under the name of Fort Cataraqui, and the fort subsequently received the name of Fort Frontenac in honor of the French count of that name. This fort was after- wards in the possession of the French and the Indians, until it was destroyed by the expedition under Colonel Braastreet in 1758. In 1762 the place fell into the hands of the British, from whom it received its present name. It was incorporated a city In 1838.

Extreme length 1100 miles ; breadth 470 miles. Area estimated at 450,000 square miles ; or about equal to the British Islands, France and Prussia combined. Blanc Sablon, near the mouth of the North West River, is the eastern boundary of the Cana- dian part of this great ^leninsula, which in- cludes the whole area draining into the River and Gulf of St. Lawrence, The portion be- longing to Newfoundland is roughly defined as that which is drained by rivers flowing Into the Atlantic. The remaining area, draining into Hudson's Bay, is called East Main, and is included in the North West Territories of the Dominion of Canada. Tlie interior of Labrador is very imper- fectly known. Professor Hind, who ex- J)lored it, describes it thus : " The table- and is 2240 feet above the ocean at the sources of the east branch of the Moisic. It is pre-eminently sterile, and where the country is not burned cariboo moss covers the rocks. In the hollows and deep ravines are to be found stunted spruce, birch and aspens. The whole of the table-land is strewed with an infinite number of boul- ders, sometimes three and four deep. These singular erratics are perched on the summit of every mountain and hill, often on the edges of cliffs, and they vary in size from one foot to twenty feet in diameter. Lan- ?;uage fails to paint the awful desolation of he table-land of the Labrador peninsula." The principal water shed is formed by the Wotchish mountains sending the water which gathers on its side West North and East. The principal rivera are the East Main or Stude, whi moss and stunted shrubs. In the valleys, where the soil is sandy, and the temperature con- siderably above the average, juniper, birch and poplar trees are found growing, and form a covert during the summer for deer, bears, wolves, foxes, martens, otters, &c., till the approach of winter drives them to the coast. Tlie climate is too severe to ripen any of the ordinary cereals. Barley, sown and cut green, makes excellent fodder ; potatoes and several species of culinary vegetables are said to do well. The whole of this vast wilderness is uninhabited by civilized man, with the exception of a few settlements on the St. Lawrence and Atlantic coasts, and some widely separated posts of the Hudson's Bay Company. Wandering tribes of Esqui- maux occupy the northern coast of Labra- dor, while nomadic tribes of Naskapees, Mistassini and Montagnais Indians are thinly scattered over the interior. The ex- ports, which are chiefly through Newfound- land, are codfish, salmon, seal and whale oil and furs- Once the country was rich in fur-bearing animals and cariboo or reindeer, but these are now greatly reduced in num- bers. Of the eastern side hardly anything is known beyond the coast, which has been carefully surveyed by Capt. Bayfield, Be- fore his day it was on this bleak and danger- ous coast that the great navigator, Captain Cook, first displayed those talents us a ma- rine surveyor wnlcli gained for him the patronage of Sir Hugh Palliser, and drew public attention to his extraordinary enter- Srise. His charts of Newfoundland, Labra- or, and the Straits of Belleisle are, to this day, a convincing proof of his fidelity, genius and discemmeai. LAB LovelVs Gazetteer of [280] British North America. LAC »• il Tho Indians who inhabit tlie interior of Labrador are all tribes of the once (;reat Al- eonquiii race, whose domains extemltxl, be- fore the arrival of the " pale faces," from the liucky Mountains to Newfoundland, and from l^abrador to the Carolinas. Tho aliorl- gines of Newfoundland belonged to this widii-spiead race of red men. The Mon- tagnais or Mountaineers, as they are com- monly called, occupied the country along the lower St. Ijawrence and the Gulf ; the Suotlis Naskapees and Mistassini are tlie Al- gomiuiuH of Labrador proper, and co-tenni- nous with the Esquimaux The Mountain- eers, or " Hunting Indians " of Labrailor, once formed a " great nation," and could bring into the field a thousand warriors to repel the incursions of the Ksquiniaux, with whom they were constantly at war, and for whom they have still a bitter hatred and contempt. They are slothful when not excited l»y war or the chase, cru>-l, revengeful and supersti- tious. Nearly all of them, like the Micmacs of Nova Scotia, profess the lioman Catholic faith ; but thoy have imbibed little of the spirit of Christianity. They bring down furs to the settlements on the coast, and ex- change them for ammunition and clothing. In the use of firearms they are very expert ; but they- are frequently compellud. oy a scarcity of ammunition, torecur for support to their original weapons, the bow and ar- row, aiul with these they can kill a flying partridge at forty yards distance. Their cauoes are made of bircli-bark, and their sledges of a thin birch board, shod with Blips of bone. The Mouataineerd draw their own sledges, as their dogs are but small and used only for the purpose of hunting. Tho Esquimaux of Labrador live almost entirely by fishing. They are partially Chris- tianizeil and civilized through the praise- worthy exertions of Moravian missionaries. They exchange furs, oil and wlialebone for ammunition, guns and clothing at tlie Euro- pean settlementfl. They are miltl, hospita- ble and honest. They are well provided with a peculiar breed of dogs, voracious and fierce, and so like wolves that they might easily be mistaken for these animals. In winter the Esquimalt travel with these dogs over the snow at the rate of from six to ten miles an hour ; each sledge is drawn by ten or twelve dogs, yoked two and two, a pair of the most sagacious being placed in front as leaders, and the whole guided l)y a long whip, without reins, the lash extending to tho foremost dogs. Their huts are, in winter, embanked with tuii and moss, excepting a small casement of oiled seal skin at the top. Without any fire but a lamp, these inhabita- tions are as warm as an oven. The passion- ate attachment of the Esquimaux to their frozen seas and icy plains is wonderful. They infinitely prefer their storm-beaten shores to the gentle waves and cerulean skies of more temperate regions- It is clear that they are a totally different race from the Red Indians of America. The Esqui- maux are stunted in stature and essentially Mongolian in pliysiognomy. having a flat- teaed nose, prominent profile and copper- colored skin. It is remarkable that tho Esquimaux is the only family common to the Old World and the New. During the brief {..abrador summer the whole coast, for five hundred miles north of the Straits of Belleisle, swarms with fisher- men from Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, Quebec, and the United States. They are engaged in the capture and cure of cod, salmon and herring- The total value of these fisheries is not less than a million ster- ling. Most of the fishermen who frequent Labrador in summer are from Newfound- land. They proceed to the various fishing stations along the coast, in small vessels, often taking tlieir families along withtbein, and reside ashore in temporary liuts. They arrive about the end of June, wlien the ice is pretty well cleareti away from the coast, and remain till the first or »,. ond week in October. A considerable part of the cod, salmon and hcirring is shipped by the sup- plying merchants direct from Labrador to foreign ports, but more of it is taken to St. John s.

LAUREL, a post village in Wellington CO. , kat- cliewan and the Churchill, the former taking its source in the Rocky Mountains, Ahile still farther on it becomes the limit of the Hudson's Bay rivers, uividing their sources and those of the Back and other streams, for 800 miles, from the tributaries of the Mackenzie. The general elevation of the Laurentlan range is from 1500 to 1600 feet ; some peaks about the Saguenay at- tain a height of 4000 feet. The surface is of a mammlllated character, its hills being worn by glacial action into round backed fonns, in general thickly clothed with wood, the prevailing trees on the summits being evergreens, in some niaces chiefly pine, and in otJiers spruce, while hardw ood sometimes abounds on the lower elevations and in the valleys. The valleys are in general not very wide, and many are worn Into deep pits holding ponds and lakes ; some streams indeed are nothing more from their sources to their mouths than a chain of such quiet expansions united by short dlFi:harulng channels. The prodigious number of these sheets of water, great and small, bespangling the whole area, is one of Its moat remark- able features, and when looked upon as displayed on a map they appear so scattered at random over the surface as to contradict almost any supposed law of distribution. The Laurentide rocks are of the azoic era. LAU20N, or ST. JOSEPH DE LEVIS, a flourishing post village in Levis co.. Que., on the south shore of the St. Lawience, 2 miles from Levis.

MOO lint landed on its Hhores. An Indian vil- lage called ilocbela^a existed here at this time. The way to it was through large fields of Indian lorn. Its outline was uir- Gular ; and it was encompassed t>y three separate rows of pa/iuades. or rather picket fences, one within the otner, well secured and put together. A single entrance was left in this rude fortification, but guarded with pikes and stakes and every precaution taken against siege or attack. The cabins or lodges of the inhabitants, about 60 in number, were constructed in the form ot a tunnel,- each 50 feet in length by 16 in breadth. They were fori^ed of wood cov- ered with bark. Above ae doors of these bouses as well as along i}>«« outer rows of palisades ran a gallery ascended by ladi'':rs, whore stones and other missiles were laid in order for the defence of the place. Each house contained .several chambers, and the whole were so arranged as to enclose an open court yard, where the fire wai> made. Cartier named tne place Mount Royal. It first began to be settled by Europeans in 1542, and exactly one century after the spot destined for the city was consecrated with due solemnities, commended to the " Queen of the Angels,'* and called yUle Marie, a name which it retained for a long period. In 1760 it was taken by the English. At thie time it was a well peopled town of an oblong form, surrounded by a wall flanked with eleven redoubts— a ditch about 8 feet deep and a proportionable width, but dry, and a fort and citadel, the batteries of which commanded the streets of the town from one end to the other. The town was at this time divided into upper and lower town, the upper town being the level of the present Court House. In the lower town the mei iihants and men of business general- ly resided and here were situated the royal magazines, the a,rmory, and the nunnery hospital. In the upper town were the prin- cipal buildings, such as the palace of the Governor, the houses of the chief ofllcers, the Convent of the Becollets, the Jesuit's Church and Seminary, the Free School, and the Parish Church. The houses were solid- ly constructed in that semi-monastic style peculiar to Rouen, Caen and other towns in Normandy. Early in the present century vessels of more than 300 tons could not as- cend to Montreal, and its foreign trade was carried on by small brigs and barges. In 1809 the first steam vessel, " The Accommo- dation," built by the Hon. John Molson, made a trip to Quebec ; she had berths for about 20 passengers. Years of industry, in- telligence, enterprise and labor have pro- duced a mighty contrast— Ocean steamers of 4000 tons, tne magnificent floating pal- aces of the Richelieu Company, and ships from 700 to 2000 tons, from all parts of tho world, now lay along side the wharves of the harbor, which are not equalled on this conti)iei>t, in point of extent, accommodar tion, approach and cleanliness. In 1832 the cholera rager" in Montreal with great vio- lence carrying off 1,813 inhabitants in a pop- ulation of little more than 30,000. In April, 1648, apolitical mob burued the Paili&men- ary buildings (which were situated on the site of the St. Ann's market), and the seat of government was in consequence removed to Quebec, subseqv .ntly to Toronto, and finally to Ottawa. In July, 1862, a destruc- tive tire laid waste a large part of the city, burning 1108 houses and destroying prop- erty valued at $l,303,2t)4. In 1860, the city was visited by the Prince of Wales ; in 1862 by the Duke of Edinburgh ; and in 1869 Prince Arthur made it his residence for sev- eral months. The Hotel Dieu was founded in 1C44 by Madame de Bouillon, and six years afterwards the Convent of Notre I>amo was founded by Mademoiselle Marguerite de Bourgeois. In 1663, the Company of Montreal was di^ssolved, they having already sold their rights to the religious order of St. Sulpice at Paris, by whom was founded the Seminary belonging to that order, and still existing in tlie city. The two oldest churches in Montreal are the Bonsecours (Roman Catholic) and St. Gabriel (Church of Scotland). The former was erected iu 1658 J was burnt in 1764, but rebuilt in 1771. The latter was built in 1792. Montreal is surrounded by villages whobe population numbers over 25,000. MONTROSE, a post village in Prince co,, P.E.I. , 47 miles from Georgetown. Pop. 200.

MOUNT ROYAL, a very picturesque iHOuntain on the outskirts of Montreal, whose most elevated point at the furthest extremity is about 750 feet above the level of the river ; it gains a moderate height at first by a gradual ascent, which lowers again towards the middle, from thence it assumes a broken and uneven form until it is ter- minated by a sudden elevation in shape of a cone. 'The slopes on the lower part are well cultivated, but the upper part is mostly Cfivered with wood. 'I'he summit, to which there is a good road of v(^ry easy ascent, cotnmands a grand and most mag- nificent prospect. Including every variety that can embellish a landscape ; the noble River St. fjawrence, moving in all its majes- ty, is seen in many of the windings, to an immense distance ; on the south side the view is bounded by the long range of mountains in the State of New York that is gradually lost in the ferial perspective. The base of the mountain, almost all around, is adorned with many elegant vil- lages and pleasare grounds. The choicest orchards of the province are also situated around it, the fruit being of great variety and very abundant, and also of the most de- licious flavor. Mount Royal Cemetery (Protestant) lies in a picturesque position on the St. Laurent side of the mountain, %nd the Roman Catholic Cemetery on the Cote dea Neiges Bide, near where the road British North America. MOU crosses the spur of the mountain that over- looks the city. The former cemetery is one of the most beautiful in the Dominion. On the side of the mountain facing the city is a tine reservoir belonging to tlu' t ity Water Works cleft out of the rock ; iunnediately below it is McGill University.

NEW BRUNSWICK, a province of the Dominion of Canada, bounded on the N. W. by the province of CJuebec, from which it is separated by the River Rustigouche ; N. by Bale Chalenrs ; E. by the Gulf of St. Law- rence and Northumberland Strait, the lat- ter separating it from Prince Edwanl Island ; S. by the Bay of Fundy and part of Nova Scotiu ; and on the W. by the Slate of Maine, from which it is separated by the St. Croix and St. tJohn Rivers ; extending from lat. 45° 5' to 48° 40' N., Ion. 63° 50' to «^8° W. ; greatest length from N. to S. 2;i(» miles ; breadth 100 miles ; area 27,322 square miles, equal to 17,48G,2«0 acres. Its coast line is about 500 miles in length, inter- rupted only at the point of junction with Nova Scotia, where an isthmus of not more than 11 miles in breadtii connects the two territories and separates the waters of NortliumborLvnd Strait from those of the Bay of Fundy, and which it is proposed to unite by means of a canal, called the Buy Verte Canal. The surface of the coimtryis generally flat or undulating. There are some hills skirting the Bay of Fundy vnd the Rivers St. John and Restigouche, out they nowhere assume mountain summits. The shores of the Gulf of St. Lawrence and Nortliamber- land Strait abound in hue ship harbors (each at the mouth of a considerable river), irom which is exported much fine timber. For about- 12 miles inland the country is low and skirted with marshes. The face of the province is traversed in all directions by navigable rivers, chief of which is the St. John, 450 miles in length. It is navigable for vessels of 100 tons to Fredericton, 90 miles from the sea. Above this point smaller steamers ascend 65 miles, to Woodstock, and occasio.ially make trips as far as the Tobique, 75 miles further up, aud even to the Grand Falls, a magnificent cataract 70 or 80 feet perpendicular, 225 miles from the sea. Above the Falls the St. John has been navigated by a steamer to the mouth of the Madawaska, 40 miles; 21 from this point boats and canoes may a8< cend almost to its sources. 'I'he .Madawiiska River is also navigable for small steamera to Lake Temlscouata, a sheet of water 27 miles long, from 2 to 6 miles broad, and of great depth throughout. From the upper part of this lake to the River St. Lawrence, at Trois i'istoks, the distance is only about 18 miles. The country drained by the St. John and its tributaries comprises about 9,000,000 acres in New Brun8wi<:k, 2,000,000 in Quebec, and 6,000,000 in Maine. The valley is remarkal>le for its fertility, and picturesque beauty. After the St. ,Iohu, the larijest river of New Brunswick is the Miramichi, flowing N. E. into an extensive bay of its own name. It is 225 miles in length, and 7 miles wide at its mouth. It is navigable for largo vessels 25 miles from the Gulf, and for schooners 20 miles fur- ther, to the head of the tide, above which, for GO niilos, it is navigablo for tow boats. The river has many hiigo tributaries, spreading over a great e.\lent of country. 'Ihe Petitcodiac is a large river, flowing into Cumberland Ba-;ln, near the head of the Bay of Fundy. It Is about 100 miles In length, and is navigable for vessels of the largest size for 25 miles, and for schoon- ers of GO or 80 tons to the head of tide, 12 miles further. The Ricliibncto is a consid- eiablo river flowing into iho Gulf of St. Lawrence. The tide flows up it 25 miles. It is navigable for small vessels 15 nules. The Uestigouche, at the north eastern ex- tremity of the province, is a noble river, 3 miles \vi(le at its entrance into the Baio des Chaleurs, and navigable for large ves- sels for 18 miles from the Bay. The princi- pal stream of the Restitrouehe is over 200 miles in length. Its Indian name signifies '■ the river which dividcis like the hand " — in allusion to Us separation, almve tlie tide, in five large streams. The main river, and its tributaries, drains over 4,000 square miles of fertile and finely timbered coun- try. Among the numerous bays with which tlio coast is indented, the most important is the B:iie des Chaleurs, an immense haven 90 miles in length, and from 12 to 25 miles in breaiUh, with many excellent harbors. Throughout its whole extent there is nei- ther rock, reef, nor shoal, nor any impedi- ment to navigation. On the southern, or New Brunswick, side of this Bay the shores !ire low, the water deepening gradually fro'n them. On the northern, or Quebec, side, t'\o shores are bold and precipitous, rising iiii j eminences, which almost may be called mountains. Besides the Mira- michi already mentioned, the principal bays on its east coast are Uichibucto, Buc- touche, Cocagne and Shedia.: ; on the south coast are Passamaquoddy Bay, separating New Brunswick from Maine, and on the S. W., St. -lohn Harbor and Chignecto Bay. The lakes are numerous but of small ex- tent. The principal is Grand Lake, .30 miles long and -' to 7 miles wide, communi- cating with the River St. John 50 miles from the sea- Along the shores of the Bale des Chaleurs and the Quif of St. Lawrence gray sand. tf Wl 11 I I''i' \'4k 1 hI-- t- NEW LovelVs Gazetteer of [322] British North America.

The The climate of to great extremes ranges of temperature are : at St. John from 18'^ below to 88° above ; at Richibucto from 20=" below to 90° above ; and at Fred- ericlon from 24"^ below to 05° above. The prevailing summer winds are from the W.S. W. and S. ; when from the S.W. dense fogs are often produced on the Bay of Fundy, and extend from 15 to 20 miles in- land. The autumn is a season of exceeding beauty, the air being dry and clear, and the woods glowing with innumerable tints of the richest and most brilliant hues. Of the soil and capabilities of New Bruns- wick it is impossible to speak too highly. There is not a country in the world so beau- tifully wooeaches) ripen perfectly and are of excel- ent quality. The potatoes raised in this province are the best in the world. Tur- nips, peas, beans, and other leguminous plants thrive admirably. A most protl table r.rop is grass, which occupies about four* flft^ of the land on every large farm. Agriculture, however, has made but slow progresii, and the demand for food is far beyond the supply raised on the soil. The inhabitants generally And it more profitable to follow the lumbering business. The rivers, lakes and sea coast of New Bruns- wick abound with fish of almost every variety. In Bale des Chaleurs immense shoals are seen, darkening the surface of the water. The Bay of Fundy has long been celebrated for its fisheries. The yield from its waters in 1870 was valued at $270,239. In 1871 there were 6,161 men employed iu the New Brunswick fisheries, and the total value of fish caught was estimated at $1,185,- 033. The Salmon fisheries of New Bruns- wick are among the finest in the world. The Buctouche, Caraquette and Cocagne oyster beds are as prolitio as they are fa- mous, and the finest lobsters are found In profusion. Shipbuihling is extensively pmaecnted in the province, more e8i>eclally at St. John and on the Miramichi. Venscls are alio built at St. Andrews, at various coves and harbors on the Bay of Fundy, along the banks of the St. ,lohn and Petltcodiac ; and atCouagne, Richibucto, Bathurst, Dalhooale, Campbellton, and other ports on the north shore. The principal articles manufactured in New Brunswick are sawn lumber, leather, cotton and woollen goods, wooden ware of all desfirlptions, paper, iron caxtings, nails, mill machinery, locomotives, steam engines, &c. The number of saw mills in the pro- vince Is very large, The great extent of sea coast, with its numerous bays and navigable rivers flow- ing into them, furnish atlmlrable facilities for commerce.

The oommon schools are free to all, being sup- ported from the Provincial revenue, and by rate upon the entire property of the country. The chief part of the inhabitants are em- igrants from Great Britain, and their de- scendants. There are a number of French Acadians, settled chiefly in the counties on the north shore and in the valley of the Madawaska, and there are also a small num- ber of Micmacs, Melicites, and other In- dians in t!»e northern part of the province, and on the St. John River. The number of Indians in New Bronswick in 1871 was 1,403. The affairs of the province are adminis- tered by a Lieutenant Governor, aided by an Executive Council of 9 members, a Le- fislative Council of 18 members, appointed ur life, and a House of Assembly of 41 repr. sentatives, elected every 4 years. The judicial department cumprises a Sunn'tno Court, with a Chief and 4 ouIhii^ judges having Law and Equity Jurisdiction ; one of .Marriage and Divorce, a Vice .'Vdmlralty Court, ami a County Court for each county in thu province.

It continued to form part, with Nova Scotia, of Acadia, or New Franco, till it fell into the hards of the BritlHh, after the conquest of Quebec. The tirHt British settlers in the province emigrated from Scotland to the Miramichi in 17<>4 ; and in 1784, New Brunswick was separated from Nova Scotia and erected into a scna- rate province.

NEWFOUNDLAND, or TERRENEUVE, a large i-land in the Atlantic Ocean, at the mouth of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, between lat, 46'' 38' and 5P 40' N., and Ion. 52° 36' and 50° 35' W. It Is separated on Hie N.W. from Canada by the Gulf; its S.W. point approaches Cape Breton ; N- and N. E. are the shores of Labrador, from which it is divided by the Strait of Belleisle ; and on its eiistern side expands the open ocean. It lies nearer to Europe than any part of Amerfca. It is about 1,200 miles in circum- ference ; its width, at the very widest part, between Capes Ray and Bonavista, is about 300 miles; and lis extreme length, from Cape Race to Griguet Bay, about 411) miles, measured on a curve. Its form is somewhat trianjjiular, but exceedingly irregular, owing to its beliiij indented with deep bayp, the most remarkable of which are Hare, White, and Notre Dame Bays, Bay of Exploits, Bonavista, Trinity and Conception Bays on the E. coast ; St. Mary's Bay, Fortune and Placentia Bay, on the S. coast ; and St. George's Bay and Bay of Islands on the W. There are besides these smaller bays and harbors. Many of these are extensive, com- modious and well sheltered, with numerous rivulets running into them, while most of the harbors h.'ive complete anchorages, with clear and good channels.

The rivers of Newfoundland are numerous, and though the umiorlty are small, yet some attain to respectable size. The largest are tlie number, Kiver of Exploits, Gambo and Great Cod Uoy Rivers. The Humber, in its main brunch. Is about 80 miles long— in its second, or Grand I'ond branch, it is about 48 miles long. The Exploits is about 150 miles long, and drains about 3,000 square miles of country. The Gander is somewhat over 100 miles long. Nearly all the rivers issue from lakes or ponds in the Interior. Many of them abound with excellent salmon. Fresh water lakes and ponds are also numerous. They are found over the face of the entire country — on the very tops of hills. The surface covered with fresh water has been estimated at one-third of the whole Island. 67 ponds have been counted from one spot on the N.E. moun- tains of Avaloi). some two and three miles in extent, none less than 100 yards, and not at a farther distance than ten miles from the base of the hill. The principal lakes in the Island are the Gander Pond, Deer Pond, Grand Pond and Red Indian Pond. The Grand Pond contains an area of about 185 square miles ; this includes an island at its south-west end, which contains an area of about 50 square miles. Deer Pond has an area of about 30 square miles. The Ketl Indian Pond has an area of 64 square miles. The Gander Pond is supposed to be of large extent, but has not yet been measured. The prevalent formation of Newfoundland is granite, and in some parts porphyry, quartz, gneiss, mica and claj'slate, with secondary and, over a considerable area, carboniferons formations. The mineral or the Island comprises silver, copper, lead, chromic iron, magnetic iron, specular iron, manganese, nickel, plumbago, gypsum, ser^ pentine, jaapere, white and black marble, limestone and coal. Tra) fiitlioms. The mean depth is estimated at 40 t'athom.s. The prosecution of the tishery on thoOrand Banks has ci late years been left exchi- Bively in ?,he hands of foreigners, princi- pally French, whilst the shore lishery, which, with less risk, is more convenient, is der -'ded upon by tho tishermen of the Island for their support. Tho cod fishery opens in June and lasts till the middle of November, and may be said to form tho chief occupation of the inhabitants of tho Island. The seal lishery is next in import- ance. In 1880, 19(j vessels, with an agg-egate burthen of 29,796 tons, and manned by 9.406 men, were engaged in this lishery. The sailing fleet of Nevfoundland no\' in- cludes 20 steam vessels, 5,759 tons, carrying 3,511 men. The imports of Newfoundland consist of all articles used for food and clothing, as well as for domestic and fishing purposes. The principal exports are fish and fisii oils, Beal oil and skins. The Government of Newfoundland pays $120,000 annually for the steam service of the colony. The steamers subsidized are the Allan Line to and from Liverpool and Halifax, or some port in the Dominion oi United States, once a fortnight ; 1 steanier once a fortnight from St. John's northward; i steamer once a fortni^iht from St. Johi\'s westtvard ; 1 from St. Jo.in's to Conception Bay ; L to convey the Judges on Circuit all over the Islaiuf, and 1 on the Labrador coast, running once a fortniglit along the shore from south to north and vice vcrxn, giving infonnuion to the fishermen where the f sh is most abundant. Tho public afl:i> -.< of Newfoundland are attniiiistered by a ^vernor, an Exec.itive Council of " membt a, a Legislative (Jo^ icil of 13 memb«rs, and a Legislative Asse-ibly of 31 representatives. Tlie juuicial depart- ment comprises a Supreme Court, with a -'Jhief and two assistant judges ; a Vice Al- liralty Court, and a District Court. The public school system is based on the denomination! ;I principle as regarde Roman Catholics, and the non-denomlnatlonal as far as Protf stants generally are concenied. The Churc'a of England Protestants are dis- 8.ati8fled with the system, and desire a sep- aration from all the other Protestant de- nominations, so as to be placed in the same position, as to public education, as tho Uo- mau Catholhji? ; fu/rc this view, however, all the other Protestant tlenomlaations dls- Bont. Tn copsoTiaace with this state of things thare are two general inspector-" of elementary or board schools, one a Protes- tant, he othdr a Roman Ctithollc. The last printed reports of these inspectors are tor i.d71. The number of Protestant schools then It. operation (the number and attend ance live varie'i very little since) w.is IHO, with .M. attendance of 10,676 pupils. 0£ these schools, 138 were elementary ; 7 com- mercial ; 20 Colonial Church and School So ;iety (partly supported by the local gov- ernment) ; 12 Wesleyiiji School Society ; 2 Church of England ; and 1 Presbyterian Church. The number of Roman Catholic schools was 101, \vith an attendance of 5,411 pupils. There are besides these, 7 commer- cial schools, with an attendance of 502 pupils ; and 13 convent schools, with an at- tendance of 1,905 pupils. There are four public academies, bajed on the denomina- tional principle, and all situated in the capital of the Island ; one for Roman Catho- lics, which is in connection with their Col- lege ; one for Church of England I'lotes- tants, in connection with their collegiate establishment; one for Wesleyans ; and one for Protestants of all other denomina- tions. The last named ought not, peiaaps, to be denominational, inasmuch as it is open to all deuominations, though but few, if any, of the denominations who possess academical institutions of their own have recourse to it. Tho towns of ilarb< r Grace and Carbonear have each a grammar school, b jsldes the commercial and elementaiy board schools. There are no railways on the Island, autl tho means of communication are not the best. Two steamers make fortnightly trips to the principal places r.orth and south of St. John's ; and another runs daily between I)ort8 on ('oneoption Bay. Most of the other places have to bo reached by open sail boat. The inhabitants of Newfoundland are principally the descendants of the settlers from Kngland and Ireland.

Newfoundland is supposed to have been discovered by Northmen about the year 1000. It was re-discovered by Sir John Cabot and Lis son Sebastian on the 24 Lh June, 1497. A settlemeni was subsequently formed by some Portuguese adventurers, who were in turn expelled by Sir Francis Drake, in the reign of Quoeu Elizabetli. After this period numeroui English colo- nies were established troiu time to tinu) along thu eastern coast, and several French along tin. southern, in the Bay of Placentia. For a long series cf years the colony ex- isted merely as a tishing settlement, and was much disturbed by the French, until, in 1713, it was declared by the Treaty of Utrecht to belong wholly to Great Britain, the French reserving a riglit to flsli on cer- tain parts of vuo const ; tne rocky islets of St. Pierre and Miiiueloii being also assigned to them on condition that they should not be used for military purposes. The lirst Governor of the Island was appointed in 1728, and the first Legislative Assembly met on the first of January, 1733. The most noteworthy town on the Island is St. John's, the capital. It has telegraphic communica- tion with Canada, the United States and Europe, and the most important places on the Island.

NORTH WEST TERRITORIES.— This large possession of tlie Dominion of Canada includes all that portion of British North America outside tlie provinces of Ontario. Quebec, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick. Manitoba, British Columbia, Prince Edward Island, and Keewatinand the island of Now fouiidland. It is bounded on the N. by the Arctic Ocean, on the E. by the Atlantic, on the W. by the Pacilic, and on the S. by parts of the Dominion of Canada and the United States. Area estimated at 2,750,000 sq. miles. This immense district was, until IK70, known as the Hudson's Bay Territory, so named after Henry Hudson, who discovered the bay in 1610, and perished on its shores. It was governed by the Hudson's Bay Com- pany, by whom it was divided into four large departments, or roRions, subdivided into 33 districts, including 155 posts. The government was administered by a Chief Governor and Council ; and the various de- partments by Chief Factors and Chief Traders. The Northern tlepartment, which included all the establishments in the far north and frozen region, comprised the valley of the Mackenzie River, and the country between that sterile region and the Rocky Mountains, north of LaUe Atha- basca. Tho Southern es it as " a beautiful country, with lofty hills, roll- ing prairies, sylvan lakes, bright green sward, uninterrupted profusion of roses and blue bells, softest vales and panoramas of hanging copses." The Mackenzie River country is well wooded, and the soil well adapted for culti- vation. The rivers and lakes west of Lake Supe- rior are bordered by rich prairies and luxu- riant woods, and the splendid stream (Rainy Biver, 100 miles long) which empties Lac la Pluie into Lake of the Woods is crowned in many places with a plentiful growth of birch, poplar, beech, elm and oak. Sir George Simpson thus concludes his remarks on this beautiful stream : " Is it too much for the eye of philanthropy to discern through the vista of futurity this noble Stream, connecting as it does the fertile shores of two spacious lakes, with crowded steamboats on its bosom, and populous towns on its borders ? " On Peace River grovefi of poplars and pine woods in every shape vary the scene, and their intervals are enlivened with vast herds of elks and buffaloes. About 150 miles east of the Rocky Moun- tains the great coal bed commences. So far as has been ascertained, it is over 300 mlh^s in width, and extends continuously over 16 degrees of latitude, to the Arctic Ocean. The ligiule (or tertiary coal) formation is still more extensively developed. At the Junction of the Mackenzie and Bear Lake livers the formation is best exposed ; it there consists of a series of beds, the thick- est of which exceeds three yards, separated by layers of gravel and sand, alternating with a tine-grained, friable sandstone, and Bometlmes with thick beds of clay, the in- terposing layer being often dark, from the dissemination of bituminous matter. The coal, when, recently extracted from the bed, is massive, and most generally shows the woody structure distinctly. IJeds of coal also crop up to the surface on various parts of the Arctic coast. The Hudson's Bay Company were chart- ered by King Charles 11. in 1670. Since that period they have used this country as hunting grounds from which to obtain sup- plies of furs for all markets in the world. There are probably upwards of 20 diflferent kinds, the most valuable of which Is that of the black fox. The other articles of com- merce are oils, dried and salted fish, feathers, quills, and walrus ivory. About 18,000 BCD>s are annually taken on the Labrador Peninsula. The Canada Pacific railway runs through the great Saskatchewan country, crossing flift Kooky Mountains through the Yellow Head Pass, and opening up one of the rich- eBt countries on the globe. This railway will be the great highway between Oriental countries and Western Europe. It will bo 6.(3 miles shorter than the American Pacific railroad, the distance from New Westmin- ster to Montreal being 2,730 nilleg, as against 3,363 miles from San Francisco to New York f ;ity. On Its construction depends the rapid growth and prosperity of this rich inheri- tance of the Dominion of Canada, now peopleii principally by Indians, but destined before many years to become the happy home of millions of inhabitants. Malcolm McLeod, Esq., son of the late Chief Trader John McLeod, senior, Hon. Hudson's '^ay Company, and author of " Peace Rlvcr," &c., has kindly furnished the f(dlowlng estimate as to Dominion lands in the North West Territories and Rupert's Land: Wheat area 370,000 square miles. General boundaries : From Lac Seul (say Ion. 92° W., lat. 60° N.) to foot of Rocky Mountains, lat. 60° N., thence along base of Rockv Mountains, lat. 60° N., thence to the south bend of Moose River, thence to the Lake of the Woods, lat. 49° N., thence alone Rainy River, and thence to Lac Seul, This area, unbroken by mountains or rocks to any material extent, with streams and small lakes which but fertilize, may be stated at 320,000 square miles. Beyond it, northwards, however, are also areas of richest vegetable mould evo- ly clays of found on ace, Hay ay of at wheat area acres. „, areas be- above, and Sq. milei. u NOR LovelV 8 Gazetteer of [335] British North America.

It conslsta of a long, narrow peniiiBula callod Nova Scotia proper, and the Island of Cape Hreton, which is Heparated from the mainland by the Strait of Canso. It is bounded N. by Northumberland Strait (which separates it from Prince Edward Island) and by tl»e Gulf of St lAwronce ; N.E , S. and S.E., by the Atlantic Ocean ; W. by the Bay (>f Fundy ; and N. by Now Brunswick, with whidi it is connected by an istlunua only 1 1 miles wide, separating the Bay of Fumly from Northumberland Strait. Greatest length from S.W. to N.E., 350 niiloH ; great- est breadtli, about 120 miles ; area 21,731 square miles, equal to 1.1,;{82,003 acres. The country is beautifully variegated by ranges of lofty hills and broad valleys, both of which run longitudinally through the province. Its Atlantic frontier, for 5 to 10 miles inland, is composed cliletly of a poor soil, tliough rich in gold and other minerals. The Cobeijuid range of mountains, as thoy are called, run through the interior of the Province. The summits of a few of the conical mounts of this range ascend l.loO feet and are cultivable nearly to their tops. On each side of these mountains are two ex- tensive ranges of rich arable lands, where agricultural operations are carried on ex- tensively and with profit. From Briar Island, at the extremity of Digby Neck, and Capes Split and Blomedon, a distance of 130 miles along the Bay of Fundy, extends a ridge of mural precipices, in many places pre- senting overhanging masses of trap rocks from 100 to()00 feet in height. Tliese frown- ing crags, with their crowded forests of fir, are first seen by the mariner in crossing the Bay of Fundy ;' their height serves to pro- tect the interior from the driving fogs of the bay. Beyond this barrier lies the rich and beautiful valley of the Annapolis. The south easteril coast of Nova Scot 'a is remarkable for the number of its capa 'ious harbors, there being no fewer than IJ i>orH capable of receiving ships of the lir , and 14 of sufticient depth for mercliantnun, be- tween Halifax and Cape Canso, a distance of not more than 110 miles. There are also some excellent harbors on the S. W. coast and on the N. side of tlie province. The Island of Cape Breton is second only to Nova Scotia proper in the number and ca- pacity of its harbors. The Big Bras d'ur is one grand harbor, while around the coast and in the Strait of Canso there are many fine harbors. Nova Scotia is beautifully divereifled with rivers and lakes, covering an area estim *ted at 3,000 square miles. The largest luke in Nova Scotia proper is Lake Kossignol, be- ing twenty miles in length ; the next larg- est is Ship Harbor Lake, 15 miivS long; Grand Lake, discharging its waters north- ward through Shubeuacadie River to Cobc- quid Bay ; and College Lake, in the eastern part of peninsula. The lakes of Cape Bre- ton are much larger and more impoiiant The principal of tliesti, Injwever, art- inland seas, rather than lakes. The great Bras d'Or Lake is a magniflccnl expanse of wa- ter, of great depiYi, about fifty miles in length, and abounding with the best quality of fish. Of the rivers of Nova Scotia 16 flow into Northumberland Strait ; 4 into St. (icorge'B Bay ; 17 into the Atlantic, and 24 into the Bay of Fundy. The most impor- tant are the Shubeuacadie, the Avon and Annapolis, flowing Into the Bay of B'undy ; the St. Mary's, Musquodoboit, La Have, and Liverpool, flowing into the Atlantic. All the rl vol's are, with few exceptions, navi- gable for coasting -s-essels for distances varying from two to twenty miles. The most remarkable body of water in the pro- vince is Minas Basin, the east arm of the Bay of Fundy, penetrating (iO miles Inland and terminating in Cobequid Bay. The tides liere rush In with great impetuosity, and form what is called the bore. At the ecjuinoxes they have been known to rise from 40 to 50 feet, while in Halifax harbor, on the opposite coast, the spring tides rise only from C to 8 feet. The other principal baysare St. (Jeorge's Bay and Chedabucto Bay in the E., connected by the Gulf of (;an80 ; St. Mary's Bay and 'Jownsend Bay in the extreme west of the peninsula ; and Mahone and St. Margaret's Bays on tlie S- coafit. 'J'he province of Nova Scotia is rii h in geological resources, all the rocks from the crystalline granites up to tlie new sand- stone series being here met with. In the isthmus coiinectiiiK the peninsula to New Brunswick, the underlying rocks consist of gray, red, and 'oulT-coN'red sandstones of the coal measures, containing innumerable seams of Kood t)ituminous coal, many of which ar of sufticient magnitude to be profitably worked. Lofty clills abutting upon the sea coast at the South Joggins pre- sent the most beautiful sectional profiles of the coal-beariTig strata, with curious fossils, both of vegetable and animal origin. Large trunks of t mcs, such as are at present un- known in a living state are here seen at various points, standing at right angles to tlie sandstone strata. Alternate beds of ex- cellent bituhiinoas coal are seen cropping out along the shore, and a company has for years been working extensive mines in one of these coal beds. The rocks of this coal formation also furnish abundance of excel- lent material for building and for grind- stones. Large quantities of beautiful and compact gray, buff-colored and blue sand- stone, ami an immense number of grind- stones are annually exported to the United States. Coal is elsewhere found more abund- antly in Pictou CO., and on the Island of Cape Breton. The i>rovince possesses gieat resources in gold and iron, and in copper, lead, silver, tin, and other minerals. The quantity of iron ore .on the property of the Londonderry Mining Company is inexhaust- ible, and the quality of iron manufactured is at least equal to the best Swedish.

In 1621 Sir William Alexander applied for and obtained from James I. a grant of the whole country, which he proposed to colonise on an exten- sive scale, and in 1623 the attempt was made ; but the proposed colonists flnding the various points where they wished to establish tlieni- selves thronged by foreign adventurers, did not think it prudent to attempt a settleni(;nt, and therefore returned to England. During the reign of Charles I. the Nova Scotia baronets were created, and their patents ratified in Parliament; they were to con- tribute their aid to the settlement, and to have j>ortion8 of land allotted to them ; their immber was not to excee.l 15(t- In 1654 Cromwell sent an armed force and took pos- session of the country, whicli remained with the English till 1667, when it was ceded to Franco by the Treaty of Breda. But the English from time t/y time attacked the French coloidsts at various point«, till 1713 when the country wad finally ceded to Eng- land. In 1763 the Island of Cape Breton was annexed to Nova Scotia. In 1784 the pro- vince of New Brunswick was created ; and in 1867 Nova Scotia became a province of the Dominion of Canada.

ONTARIO, a county in the province of Ont., bordering upon Lake Ontario, has an area of 549,866 acres. This county is wat- ered by several small streams flowing into Lake Ontario, also into Lake Simcoe, which forms its north-western boilndary. The Grand Trunk, Toronto and Nipissing, Mid- land, and Whitby and Port Perry railways intersect this county. Capital, Whitby. Pop. in 1871, 45,990. ONTARIO, a province of the Dominion of Canada, bounded on the N.E. and E. by the province of Quebec ; on the S.E., S.S.W. and W. by the River St. Lawrence and its great lakes ; and on the N.W. and N. by the North West Territories. Length from S.E. to N.W. about 750 miles, and from N.E. to S. W. aboutSOO miles. Area, land and inland waters, 107,780 8qur,re statute miles, equal to 68,979,372 acres. Area of the Ontario fiontier waters of the St. Lawrence and its large lakes about 27,094 square statute miles, or 17,340,160 acres. The surface of the country is gently un- dulating, rather than mountainous, and is diversitied by rivers and lakes. The ridge of high land which enters the province at Niagara Falls enters to Hamilton, and is continued to Owen Sound, thence along the peninsula to Cabot Head and through the Manitoulin Islands of Lake Huron, The Laurentian hills run westward from the Thousand Islands, near Kingston, and ex- tend north of Lake Simcoe, forming the coast of Georgian Bay and Lake Huron. A main water-shed separates the waters of the Ottawa from those of the St. Lawrence ; a minor one diviles the streams flowing into Lake Simcoe, Georgian Bay and Lake Hu- ron from those flcving into Lakes Erie and Ontario. Tlie agricultural resources of the country are very great. The fertile belt extends over three-fourihs of the present inhabited parts, and a vast area, in the hands of the Government, now open for settlement. Im- mense ci ops of wheat are annually raised ; also outs, barley, Indian corn, rye, potatoes, turnips, &c., &c. The apple orchards of the south-western counties are very pro- ductive, and ^)ear8. plums, grapes, cherries and various kinds of berrie.^ thrive luxuri- antly. The climate of Ontado is agreeably tempered by tne proximity of the great lakes. The winter is considerably shorter and milder than that of Quebec. The principal vivers of Ontario are the tributaries of the Ottawa ; the French, the Maganetawan, the Severn, and the Notta- wiissaga falling into Geiygian Bay ; the Saugeen, the Maitland, and the Aux Sables, falling into Lake Huron ; the Thames, run- ning S.W. into Lake St. Clair; the Grand, flowing S.E. into Lake Erie; tlie Trent, in part of its course called the Otonabee, and the Moira, flowing S.E. into the Bay of Quintt^ ; and the Niagara, fjilling into Lake Ontario. The mighty St. Lawrence sweeps through the eastern part of the province, from Kingston, and the Ottawa forms part of its N.K. boundary. The lakes of Ontario are numerous and magnificent. The larg- est are Lakes Superior, Huron, p]rie and Ontario, 'lliey cover an area of 80,000 square miles, and contain nearly half the fresh water on the globe. The nnnor lakes are Nipigon, Simcoe, Nipissir.g, and those in the counties north of Lake Ontario, and in the Ottawa and the St. Lawrence Rivers. The principal bays .ire the Georgian, Notta- wassaga, Owei\ Sound, Long Point, Burling- ton and Quinte. The mineral wealth of the country is not surpassed, if indeed it be equalled, by any other in variety and richness. Iron is found in large quantities a short dis- tance back of Lake Ontario, In the coun- try between Georgian Bay and the Ottawa ; also, in the same region, copper, lead, plumbago, antimony, arsenic, manganese, ypsum, marble of the finest quality, and uhdiug stoue.

On the north shore of Lake Huron are extensive mines of copper, and on the shores of Lake Superior, particularly round Thunder Bay, aro enormous silver deposits. Amethysts and p.gates are also found there, as well a.s micf., iron, gold, cobalt and bismuth. The petroleum wells in the south-westerly part of the province are yielding immense and apparently inexhaustible supplies, and so are the salt wells at Goderich and Kincar- dine. The article is obtained by evaporat- ing the brine, and is exceedingly good for table use, having been found, upon chemi- cal analysis, to be of almost perfect purity. Large peat beds exist in many parts of the province. The almost unlimited supply of water power throughout Ontario atfords unusual lacilities for manufactures to which that power is adapted, and in consequence vari- ous descriptions of industry aro springing up in all directions ; steam power is also used to a large extent. The principal arti- cled iT>anufactured are cloth, linen, furni- ture, sawn timber, flax, iron and hardware, paper, soap, starch, hats, caps, boots, shoes, leather, cotton and woollen goods, steam engines and locomotives, sewing machines, wooden ware of all descriptions, agricultural Implements, &c. The settlements In Ontario have hitherto been made south of the Laurentian range of hillB, which was thought to bound the lands lit for settlement, but it has been dis- covered that behind this range there is an- other tract of rich agricultural land, as level as the St. Lawrence valley, and tim- bered with a heavy growth of mixed while pine and hardwood. These lands are ap- proached by the Northern, Midland, Vic- toria, and Toronto and Nipissing railways on the one hand, and the upper Ottawa on the other. They have the basin of Lake Nipissing and the water-shed of the Ottawa for their drainage. Their waters are in part navigable, and the rest can be made 80. Settlement has already commenced to enter rapidly into this new district, consid- erable tracts of which have been set aside as fresh grants to settlers. The railway system has made rapid strides ill Ontario duriri" the past 30 years. To-day she has no lefo man 3478 miles, and when those lines now under construction are completed, she will have, at the lowest calculation, 4()00 miles. These facts point in no uncertain language to the great strides the province has made during the lifetime of many of the statesmen who now wat<'h the destinies, not of a single province, but of a broad fertile dominion, greater in ex- tent than the wealthy republic to the south of the line. Yet, extensive as railway building has been in Ontario during the past two or three decades, the future prom- ises many more miles of railway. The mining and timber regions of the north have yet to be tapped and captured, fleura- tively speaking, by the iron horse. That stretch of country in the vicinity of Lake Superior which belongs to Toronto will in a very few years see aocond editions of the Grand Trunk and Great Western, it needs but the opening of the Canada Pacitlc to pave the way for the enterprising rail vay man, ever on the alert to tie cities, towns and villages together with a band such as has, changed the face tr' the whole world and made the nineteenth century one of the grandest in history. The following are the railways in operation : Allies . Grand Trunk and branches G46 Great Western and branches 680 Welland 26 Brockville and Ottawa 57 Canada Central 240 St. Lawrence and Ottawa 59 Toronto and Nipissing 88 Northern 168 Midland 141 Whitby and Lindsay 46 Cobourg and Marmora 22 Toronto and Brace 195 Hamilton and North Western 177 Canada Southern 311 Kingston and Pembroke 60 Victoria 56 Dover and Huron 63 Stratford and Huron 78 Simct. e Junction 26 Belleville and Hastings 22 Credit Valley 156 North Sinicoe 32 Picton aiiii Trenton 33 Huron and Erie 71 Georgian Bay and Wellington 59 There are several canals in Ontario. The Welland, between Lakes Erie and Ontario, to avoid the Niagara Falls ; the Kideau, between Kingston and Ottawa ; and the St. Lawrence canals, rendered necessary by the rapids of that river. Two others have been lor some time contemplated, but their con- struction is doubtful, one to connect Geor- gian Bay with Lake Ontario ; the other to connect Georgian Bay with the Ottawa river. The school system of Ontario is admira- ble. It affords the children of the rich and poor alike the means of free education. It IS under the control of a Minister of Edu- cation and a Chief Superintendent, and ex- tends over the whole province. The schools are supported by a tax on property, with some assistance "from the Legislature, and are free to all. Each Township is divided into school sections, with a Board of School Trustees, composed of 3 persons, to each se(;tiou. This Board employs the teacher and controls the school. There are 5.3 In- spectors of schools for the entire province, but no Inspector has the supervision of more th?\n 1'20 or less than 50 schodls. They are paid partly by the Council and partly by the Government. Those gentlemen visit their respective schools twice a year, ex- amine into the state of educationalniatters, and send an elaborate Report to the (Jhief Superintendent of the result of their in- spection, and the exact standing of the schools.

Tlie JudgeB of the Superior Court (who are all apiKjiiited by the Doiniiiion Governuient) go circuit to each county throughout the province twice a year, to hold aaBizeB for the trial of civil and criminal cases. The Judges of the Court of Chancery also hold their courts In various counties as well as at Osgoode Uall. Ontario is dividod into the following coun- ties (which arv. sub-divided into 88 electoral districts), viz : ONT LovelVs Gazetteer of [342] British i.^rth America. ONT and are in such cases exempted from sup- porting public schools, and receive a separ- ate grant from the Oovermuent. In 1872 there were 4,598 public schools (of which 160 were Koman Catholic separate schools), with 446,326 pupils attending them. The amount of money expended in their support was $1,814,S^;. The School Act of 1871 has given an immense impetus to public school education, and it is contidently believed that the year immediately following its passage will show a much greater increase in educa- tional statistics than has yet been known. The high (formerly grammar) schools of Ontario number 102, with 7,490 pupils. They are principally confined to cities, towns and villages. Pupils enter them from the pub- lic schools, and thence to college and th^^ Tiiiiversity. The Normal School at Toronto is '.esigiied to perfect teachers ia their pro- fession, and to show them tlie best method of teaching. Upwards of 300 young men and vomen attend it annually. The system of Teacher's Certificate is as follows ; There is a Central Board of Examiners at Toronto, which issues Ist class certiticates alone. Each County has a local Board of Examin- ers for the granting of 2nd and 3rd class cer- titicates. There are two examinations per annum, the papers being got up by the Cen- tral Board and sent sealed up to the local Boaids. Any candidate who fancies justice lias not been done to him may appeal to the Educational Department. Of late years the statuc of teacuing qualifications has greatly increased. There are 17 Protes- tants univei-sities and colleges, and 3 Ro- man Catholic colleges in Ontario. Private schools are few, and generally in cities and large towns. The total number of Educa- tional Institutions in Ontario, in 1872, was 8,004, with 4(53,057 pupils, and a total amount available for educational purposes of $2,- 629,570. The municipal system of Ontario is among the most perfect in the world. All religions are free without State preference. There are numerous public institutions throughout the province, chietly under con- trol of the Government. Of these are the Lujiatic AsyluMis at Kingston, Toronto London, Amherstburg and Orillia ; the Reformatory Prison at Penetanguishene ; the Asylum for the Blind at Brantford ; the Deaf and Dumb Asylum at Belleville ; the Normal School, University College, and Os- goode Hall, Toronto. Other public build- ings are in course of construction. The public affairs of the province are ad- ministered by a Lieutenant Governor, an Executive Council of 5 members, and a Leg- islative Assembly of 88 members, elected every 4 years. The laws and the mode of administering them are mainly the same as in England ; the practice, however, is simpler and far less expensive. The Courts are the Queen's Bench, Common Pleas and Chancery, each presided over by a Chief Justice and two assistants, and a Court of Error and Appeal, composed of a President and the Judges of Superior Courts of Law and Equity. In each county there is a County Court, pre* Counties. Addington Algoma District..

This city has a population ot over 70,000 ; it is well situated on Lake On- tario, very uandsomely built, and contains a large number of fine buildings. Ottawa is the capital of the Dominion, and is beauti- fully situated on the river of the same name . I* contains the Parliament Buildings, one of the noblest structures on the American continent. Kingston is a well built and fortitied city, beautifully sitiiivted at tlie outlet of Lake Ontario. Hamilton is a fine commercial city, at the head of navigation on Lake Ontario. London is a handsome inland city, in the centre of the western peninsula. Guelph and Brantford are also cities. According to late returns, the total value of the imports of the province from all foreign countries in 1880 amounted to $27,- 869,444, and the exports to $28,063,980. The imports for Toronto alone amounted to $12,- 192,942. The province of Ontario contains many objects of interest to the tourist. Not to speak of its beautiful cities, the Thousand Islands of the St.Lawrence, and the unrival- led scenery on the Great Lakes, ther(3 are the world-renowned Falls of Niagaia, a never failing source of attraction, and the Falls of liakabikki.on the lUver Ivaniinisti- quai, 30 miles from its outlet into iho head of Lake Superior. The scenery surrounding this fall, although less extensive, vies in frandeur and sublimity with that of Niagara n beholding it, the spectator is inspired with equal awe, the principal features .-iro equally striking, while thoilc'ep intonation is more Hcnsible than that of its rival, .'ind li-»s a nearer resemblance to the roar of (l;.s- tant thunder and the rumblings of an earth- quake. The existence of Upper Canada as a dis- tinct province can be dated only from the year 1791, previous to which it formed part of the old Province of Quebec. Major Gen- eral J. G. Simcoe was the first Lieul«iiant Governor appointed, and the first ruriia- ment met at Niagara on September 17, 1792. In 1820 dissensions of a political nature arose in Lower Canada, wldch wenl on in- creasing in intensity year by year, deepened by the luitioiial prejudice of tiio French and English coionistri to each other, until, in 1H34, it extended to Upper Canap. 4500. m OTT LoveU's Gazetteer of [345] British North America, OTT OSMAN, a settlement In MlddleHsx co., Ont., 5 miles from Longwood.

It was incorporated a city, and its name changed to Ottawa, in 1854, and Belected by Queen Victoria as the capital of Canada in 1858. The chief attraction in Ottawa Is the gov- ernment buildings, which occupy an ele- vated piece of ground, about 25 acres in ex- tent and 150 feet above the river, known by the name of "Barrack Hill." The view irom this natural terrace Is superb. The peat river with its moving rafts, steamers, Barges, and canoes rolls swiftly on through splendid hill ranges towards the south. In the distance the fine suspension bridge which spans the majestic river just below the Oliaudlere Falls attracts the eye, even though it be tempted to rest upon the wild beauty of the cascade sweeping by craggy rocks between abrupt Islands, and plunging into the biusln below, where part ot it8 waters disappear In a mysterious way.

Previous to 1826, Peter- borough was known as Indian Plain or Scott's Landing.

In that year Colonel l:'eter Bobinson, of Newmarket (a brother o£ the late Chief-Justice of Ontai io), was sent out by Earl Bathurst in charge of 2U0O einigranU.. He conducted them from the south of Ireland to the Indian Plains, wherd he encamped them andsuoscqucuily settled tliem in the neighboiing townships. Colonel Robinson then lived in a tent on a rising ground close to the river side, and one day at a dinner party which he gave in his tent tlie question arose what name to give the future town. It was then decided that it should be called Peterborough, after Colonel Robinson. There were present at the din- ner the Hon. Thomas A. Stewart, Mr. Alex. McDonald, Dr. Reid, of Perth, Mr. Sydney Bellingham, late M.P. for Argenteuil, and one or two others. The name was adopted, and Colonel Robinson gave orders that it should be laid out in :,own and parl^ lots, and promised each of his guests a town and park lot.

QUEBEC, after Montreal the most popu- lous city in the Dominion of Canada, capital of the Province of Quebec, is situated on the left bank of the River St. Lawrence, which here receives the St. Charles, 400 miles from the month of the River St. Law- rence at Point des Monts, 180 miles N. E. of M(mtreal, and 328 miles N. N.W. of Port- land, Mo. Lat. (of N. E. bastion) 46° 49' 6" N., Ion. 71° 13' 45" W. Mean temperature in winter 10'^, in summer 68° Fahrenheit. Mean of the year 39°. The city has a remarkably picturesque situation between the two nvers at the N< B. extremity of a narrow but elevated table land, which, for about eight miles, forms the left bank of the St. Lawrence. Cape Dia- mond, the extremity of the table land, is 333 feet above tlie level of the river, to which it presents a nearly precipitous face ; the descent to the St. Charles is more gradual. The distance from one river to the other across the ridge is rather more than a mile. Opposite Cape Diamond the St. Lawrence is contracted to a breadth of only 1314 yards ; but immediately below, at the confluence of the St. Charles, it spreads out into a broad and beautiful basin more than 2500 yards wide, forming a capacious and excellent harbor. The spring tides rise and fall 18 feet. Quebec is divided into two parts, called Upper and Lower Towns. The Upper Town occupies the highest part of the promontory ; it is surrounded with walls, and otherwise fortified. The ancient citadel, which crowns the summit of Cape Diamond, covers, with its numerous works, an area of 40 acres, and from its position is probably the strongest fortress in America. The chief ascents to the Upper Town are by a steep and narrow winding street and by a fiight of steps. The Lower Town, which is the seat of commerce, is built around the base of Cape Diamond, where, in many places, the rock has been cut awav to make room for the houses. On the side of the St. Charles the water at flood tide formerly washed the very foot of the rock, but from time to time wharf after wharf has been projected to- wards low water mark, and foundations made sufficiently solid on which to build whole streets, where boats a.id even vessels of considerable burthen once rode at anchor. The banks of both rivers are now lined with warehouses and wharves, the latter jutting about 200 feet into the stream, and along which the water is of suf- ficient depth to admit vessels of the largest size. The streets are generally irregular and narrow, in few instances are they well paved and lighted. The houses are princi- pally of stone and brick, two or three stories high , the older ones with steep and quaint-looking roofs. The city has several times suffered from disastrous fires, but the result has been the erection of more attractive buildings, and a consequent great improvement in the gen- era! appearance of the city. During the year 1854, a plentiful supply of water was introduced from Lake St. Charles. In the Upper Town are several square! and public walks commanding views un- rivalled for their varied and picturesqun beauty. In one stands a substantial monu- ment, erected to the joint memory of Gen- erals Wolfe and Montcalm, the English and Frer.ch commanders, who fell at the taklns of Quebec in 1759. It consists of an obelisk resting on a granite pedestal, the whole 65 feet high. A monument 40 feet in height marks the spot where General Wolfe fell on the Plains of Abraham ; while on the St. Foy road stands an iron pillar surmounted QTJE id table iina the pe Dia- laud, is iver, to 118 face ; .8 more river to er more on«l the Biidth of )elow, at , 8preadB jin more apacious ug tides ts, called per Town montovy ; 3tlierwi8e ih crowns irers, with acres, and strongest Town are jtieet and le seat of se of Cape i, the rock )m for the iharles the rashed the me to time ejected to- oundations ;li to build ven vessels rode at rs are now larves, the into the jr is of suf- the largest irregular , they well are princi- or three Bteep and Iff 6 red from las been the tings, and a lin the gen- liful supply Lake St. ral squares views un- picturesque -ntial monu- lory of Gen- ^Inglish and ; the taking i an obelisk Bie whole 65 fet in height yolfefellon \ on the St. burmounted QUE LovelVs Gazetteer of [3G5] British North America.

Among tlie public buildings of Quebec may be nientioi\ed the Parliament Build- ings, the Roman Catholic CatliediLl, an ir- regular building, capable of cnuaining 4000 persons, and covering, with the uni- Tersiiy altaclied, an area of 8 acres ; the Engiitsh (;athedral, surmounted by a lofty spire; and St, Johns Free Scotch "Churoh, also adorned with a spire, occupying ele- vated positions in ilie Upper Town. There are in all 1!) churches in Quebec, and 1 Synagogue. Of the churches 7 are Church of England : 7 Koman Catholic ; I Churcli of Scotland ; 1 Presbyterian ; I Baptist ; I Congregational, and 1 Weslej an Methodist. The educational institutions com.jrise 3 Roman Catholic Colleges, viz. : Laval Uni- versity, with faculties of law, medi<'ine anil arts ; the Crand Seminary, and the Minor Seminary ; the Ursuline convent, an exten- sive establishment founded in 1641 ; several nnnnerii'S ; Morrin College, with 10 profes- sors : Laval Normal and Model School ; tlie Quebec Hiyh School ; and a number of academies and private and public schools. There are in addition the Canadian and Me chaniea' Institutes, provided with libraries ami reading rooms; the Literary and His- torical Society, the oldest chartered institu- tion of the kind in Canada, having been founded in 1S24, and possessing valuable " Records of the Realm," in 80 or 90 folios, and a large collection of historical manu- scripts, but nearly the whole of its museum, and a great part of its library, were de- stroyed by tire with the Parliament I uild- ingb in l«.')4 ; the Entomological Society, St, Patrick's Literary Institute, Advocates' Library, Board of Trade, and Merchants' Exchange. Eight daily newspapers are published in Quebec, 5 of which are in the French lan- guage. The principal benevolent institutions are the Maiiiie Hospital, the Hotel Dieu, the General Hospital, and the Lunatic Asy- lum at Beauport. Quebec has the head offices of 3 banks, viz. : Quebec Bank, Banque Nationale, and Union Bank of Lower Canada, besides which there are 2 savings banks, and agen- cies of the Bank of Montreal, Merchants Bank, and Bank of British North America. Shipbuilding is the chief manufacturing industry of Quebqc. There are also manu- factories of iron castings^ niachinery, cut- lery, nails, leather, musu-al instruments, hoots and shoes, paper, India rubber goods, rope, tobacco, steel, etc. Quebec is an important port of ('anada, and the most ancient. The great staple of export is timber, Montreal being :he port where the agricultural exports ar<. chietly exchanged for supplies of foreign goods. The timber is furnished ["incipallj by the Ottawa and St. Maurice j'i-vers. As the rafts come dowu the river, they are collect- ed into what are called Coves and secured by booms moored along the banks, the tim- ber being partly afloat, partly aground, ac- cording to the rise or fall of the tides. These coves extend almosst continuously along the left bank of the St. Lawrence, for a distance of six miles above the town, through- out the whole of which, at certain seasons, may be seen amass of logs with a breadth varying from 150 to 200 yard.s. There are also extensive timber and deal sawing es- tabllshments near the city, on the right banl: of the St. Lawrence. Quebec returns thr(>e members to the House of ConuTions, and three to the Pro- vincial Legislature. It is the seat of tlie See of two bishops, the Lord Bishop of Q»e- bec (Church of England), and Archbishop of Quebec (Church of Rome). Pop. in 1832, 27,5(i2 ; in 1844, 34,500 ; In 1852, 42,062 ; in 1861, 51,100 ; and in 1871, 59,61)9. Quebec was first visited by Jacques Car- tier in 1535. It then consisted of an Indian village called Stadacona. In July, 1608, Champlain founded the city, giving it Its present name. The progress of Its aggrau- dizement was slow, in consequence of the hostilities of the powerful Iroquois. In 1629 it fell into the hands of the English : but with the whole of Canada was restored to the French in 1632. From this period some attbution was paid to the increase of the city ; and in 1663, wlien the colony was made a royal government, it became the capital. In 1690 the I i -lish attempted to reconquer it, but met with a disastrous de- feat ; but in 1759 it was captured by the brave General Wolfe, and has since been under the British Crown. An unsuccessful attempt was made by the Americans to carry the city by assault on the night of December 31, 1776, when General Mon1>- gomery was slain.

Quebec QUE LovelVs Gazetteei' of [367] British North America. QUE By a proceeding somewhat analogous the civil aiitborities order the civil erection of municipal corporations. The townships are of English origin. After the cession of Canada to (Iretit Britain, the English land system of holding in free and common soc- cage was instituted for the feudal system upon all Crown I^ands, and then the town- ship took the place of the seigniory. The regular limiis of a township are ten miles square, of 100 superlitial miles. Such town- ships as are not sub-divided into parishes preserve for all municipal or other pur- poses their legal limits. The counties were established for the purposes of representa- tion, each county having the right to send one meuiber to the House or Commons every live years, and one to the Local I.,egls- lature every four years. In addition to this each county forms a registration division for registration of mortgages, &c. The parish and township municipalities com- prised in a county rorm what is called a county municipality. The province is di- vided into 65 electoral districts, viz. : Countie$, Quebec, G Quebec, E Quebec, W Quebec Co Richmond Wolfe Richelieu Rimouski Rouville St. Uyacinthe.. St. Johns St. Maurice....

Land surveyed in 1866, 29,528 square miles. For judicial purposes the province is di- vided into 20 districts, each judicial district having ample and equal jurisdiction in nil matters, except as to revision and appeal. The Superior Court sits in revision only at Montreal and Quebec ; the Court of Appeal also sits only at Montreal and Quebec. Public Instruction is under the control of the Superintendent of Education who is as- sisted by a Deputy and a Council of 21 members, appointed by the Lieutenant Governor, 14 of whom are Roman Catholics and 7 Protestants. Primaiy education is so far compulsory that every citizen is bound to contribute a moderate tax assessed on his property. In municipalities where there are different religious denominations the school commissioners of tlie majority govern. The schools of the minority are called dissentient schoolS: whose trustees are invested with the same authority as the cointnissioners of schools of the majority. In the cities of Montreal and Quebec there are separate boards of commissioners f(»r the Piotostant and Roman Catholic schools. Teachers are trained in Normal schools, supported at the expense of the Province. The Protestant Univeirities are McGill College, at Montreal, founded In 1827, and Bishop's College, Lennoxville, founded in 1843. The Roman Catholic University of Laval was founded by the Quebec Seminary hi 1852. Thr prevailing religion is that of the Church of Rome. The Roman Catholic Dioceses are seven in number, viz : the Arch- diocese of Quebec, and the Dioceses of Montreal, Three Rivers, St. Hyacinthe, Sherbrooke, Umouski and Chicoutimi. The Protestant Dioceses are two in number : Montreal and Quebec. According to tli« QUE Lo'oelVs Gazetteer of [368] British North America. QUE ! % census of 1871, the religious denomiuations in the province were as followa : Church of England 62,449 Church of Rome 1,019,850 Church of Scotland 13,023 Presbyterians 33,142 Weslevaii Methodists 26,737 Other Methodists.

Th ' principal manufactures are cloth, linen, furniture, leather, sawn lumber, flax, hardware, paper, chemicals, soap, boots and shoes, cotton and woollen goods, steam engines and locomotives, woodonwaro of all descriptions, agricultural implements, ships, &c. The faciliticsformanufacturing afforded by abundant water-power are ex- cellent. The public affairs of the province arc ad- ministered by a Lieutenant Governor, an Executive Council of 7 members, a Legis- lative Council of 24 members, appointed for life, and a Legislative Assembly of 65 members. The judicial department com- prises a Cou .t of Queen's Bench, with a Chief Justio, and 5 assistants ; a Superior Court, with Jhief Justice and 28 assistants ; a Court of vice Admiralty; Courts of Quarter Sessions ; and Courts for the sum- mary trial of small causes. According to late returns the total value of tlie imports from all foreign countries in 1880 amounted to $43,544,132 and the ex- ports to $41, 147,209. The imports for Mon- treal alone amounted to $37,073,068, and exports $30,224,673. The chief articles ex- ported were pot and pearl ashes, llour, wheat, oats, barley, butter, cheese, copper, wool, and lumber. In 1880 there arrived at the several ports of the province 1149 ves- sels with an aggregate burthen of 1,1.37,027 tons. During tlie same period there cleared 1228 vessels ; tons 1,096,593. The commerce of the province is greatly facilitated by several canals which avoid the most violent rapids of the St. Lawrence. There are the Lachine canal, extending from Montreal to Lake St. Louis ; the Beau- harnois canal, uniting Lakes St. Francis and St. Louis ; tlie Chambly canal, uniting Lake (3hamplain with the Richelieu River ; and the Carillon and Grenville canal. The province contains many grand and beautiful objects of interest to the tourist. The Ottawa and its tributaries abound in falls and rapids of an exceedingly pictur- esque ciiaracter. Ascending this stream a little above Rigaud you have Carillon Falls, a series of rapuls 12 miles in length. Near Ottawa city a branch, called the Rideau, pours its waters down a perpendicular bed of blue limestone, 60 feet, into the Ottawa. The Chuudi'ere Falls (the Indian name of which is Kaiiajo, " the Boiling Pot,"; in tiie same vicinity, are wild and gran^, The Fall in no place exceeds 40 ftet, but the rapids extend 6 miles, and the water foams, tosses, and tumbles among rocks of every shape, in perpetual variety, and in such a manner as never to weary the eye, appear- ing like a multitude of different streams "struggling for a passage." An excellent view of the wliole is had from a hue sus- pension bridge over the Ottawa. One por- tion of the river is separated from the main stream, and falls into a subterranean pas- sage. When this part of Canada was an un- broken wilderness, an enterprising Ameri- can named Philemon Wright established himself at the falls, selecting the mouth or Hull side as his residence. His descend- ants include the present Commons' Mem- bers for the counties of Pontiac and Ottawa. The late Philemon Wriglit had his atten- tion early attracted to t!ie strange phenom- enon of a considerable portion or the Chau- di^re Falls descending into a rocky basin without any apparent outlet. Having built the first saw mill ever erected on the Ot- tawa River, at that part of t?ie falls imme- diately above the lost channel, and being curious to know its outlet, he followed the course of the river downwards for sixty miles, examining the shore line on each Bide, but he was unable to discover the slightest trace of the saw dust or saw mill debris daily cast into the lost channel, and to this day the enigma has baffled curiosity and science, and the outlet is a mystery. At these and the other falls are timber slides constructed at great expense . Les Cliats, an- otlier series oi falls or rapids, 30 miles farther up, are formed by the river brealt- ing, at high water, over the rocks in 33 distinct shoots, spreading across the river to a width of 4 miles. Some of these separ- ate shoots would, in many pUces, be called large rivers, and are very remarkable falls, and well worthy the attention of the tourist. At Calumet there is another rapid of scarcely less interest ; a fall of 120 feet in the Keepawa branch ; besides, a number of inferior fails and rapids, studded with saw mills, and the banks in many places wild and rugged ; while the river often expands into beautiful lakes. The well known Falls of Montmorency, 7 miles below Que- bec, with a perpendicular descent of 240 feet ; the Falls of the Chaudifjre on the S. side of the St. Lawrence, 10 miles above Quebec, with a perpendicular pitch of 125 feet down a deep chasm ; the beautiful Falls of the St. Anne, on the N. shore of the St. Lawrence, 22 miles below Quebec ; and the Long Sault, Cedars and Lachine rapids are all on the fashionable route of tourists. But the grandest river scenery is to be seen on the Saguenay River, which enters the St. Lawrence about 120 miles be- low Quebec. The last 60 miles of its course are exceedingly sublime. The banks, vary- ing in height from 600 to 1500 feet, not only often perpendicular, but absolutely over- hanging the darK, deep river below " as if :a. QUE ;he Ottawa.

Tlie precipiLuiicy continues below as well as above the water, which hat) been found ns deep within it feet of the shore as in the middle ; and near its mouth a line of .'iUoO feet tailed t > leuch the bottom. The depth in other parts varies from 100 to 1000 feet. The upper part of the Saguenay abounds in falls and rapids. Excursions are made from Montreal and Quebec to this river in Bteambuats. The ceenery on the N. bank of tlie St. Lawrence alone is worth the trip. The Indian i)opulation of the province of Quebec iu 1871 was «657 — Nipissings, Algon- quins, Abenakis, Murons, AuKlicites, Mic- macs, Montagnais and Naaquapees. The province is said to have been dis- covered by Sebastian Cabot in 1497 ; but the first settlement made by Europeans was iu 1541, near (iuebe<% by Jacques Cartier, a French navi|j;ator, who sailed up the St. Law- rence, to which he gave its present name. In 1608, a permanent settlement was made by the French upon the present site of the city of Quebec. Fiuni this period till 1759 the French continued to occupy the country, though much harassed by various tribes of Indians, particularly the Iroquois ; but in the year last named an English army, under General Wolfe, captured Quebec ; and by September 8, 1760, all other places within the government of Canada were surrendered to the British, and the French power en- tirely annihilated. In 1792 the province was diviued into Upper and Lower Canada, but in 1840, after i-erious political dissensions, they were reunited under the name of the United Provinces of Canada. In 1867, they were again separated, and under the names respectively of Ontario and Quebec, form the two most important provinces in the Dominion of Canada. QUEEN CUAllLOTTE'S ISLANDS, a group of islands in the Pacific Ocean, off uie coast of Jiritish Columbia, N. of Van- couver Island, between lat. 51i° and 54° N., and Ion. 131° aiui 133° W. These islands form part of British Columbia. They were first discovered by the celebrated navigator Gapt. Cook, in 1778, and taken possession of by Dixon in 1787 in the name of the British Crown. The group consists of two large islands and 2 smaller ones, lying in an archi- pelago of islets. The 4 principal ones, called Graham, Moresby, North and Pns- cott, are divided merely by narrow arms of the sea, and taken together measure 180 miles in length by 60 miles at greatest breadth. This group is described as the Eden of the North Pacific. The climate is so delicious, caused in some degree by the Heated River, or the Pacific Gulf stream, that skirts the coast of Japan, and with a speed of 80 miles every 24 hours, runs N. and washes the coast of British Columbia. The Q'leen Charlotte Islands teem with various mineral products. Gold bearing quartz of very rich qualitv was extracted at a point called Mitchell's ftarbor, as far back as 1852. Copper and iron ores exist ; and a fine vein of Anthracite coal, of a superior quality, has been partially wrought, but the working ia at present suspended for want of 24 capital . These islands are hilly, though not mountainous; the interior is clothed with magnificent forests of the finest timber ; the coasts are indented with inviting harbors.

KOCKY MOUNTAINS, called also th*" CHlI'l'KWAYAN MOUNTAINS, a chain in the central and W. part of North America ; commem-ing in New Mexico, in alM)Ut ;« ' ;t()' N. int., near Fort Webster, It extends nearly N. N. W., thronKhout the N. portion of tho continent and the Polar Ocean, terminating; \V. of the mouth of the Mackenzie Uiver, in lat- (i'J ' N., Ion. 135° W. This ranpe, in connection with the Andes, of which it may bo said to be a continuation, forms the longest, and, according to Hum- boldt, the most uniform chain of mountains on the nlobe. .Somewhat more than half of the entire chain belongs to North America, the name. Reeky Mountains, being usu.ally applied to that portion only which Is com- prised within the United States and Domin- {•n of Canada, although the exact limit of this mountain range towards the S. can Bcarcely be said to be determined. The entire length, however, of the chain, following the windings, may be stated in round numbers at .'lOOO miles. The E. boundary of the Rocky Mountains in lat. 38° N.. Is ill inp 20' W. ion, ; in lat. 40° N., 108° 30' W. Ion. ; in lat. 63'^N., 124° 40' W. Ion. : In lat. 68° N., 130° 30' W. Ion. Not- withstanding this general tending to the W., the continent witlens so much more in the same direction that this chain, which, in South and Central Ameri«'a, and Mexico, Is comii«iratively a coast range, ia several hundred leagues inland In the United States and Canada- The liiahest known peaks within tlie United Stales are Fremont's 13,570 feet, and Pike's Peak, U,m feet high ; and Mount Brown and Mount Hooker, in Canada, near 53° N. lat., the former about 16,000 and the latter 15,690 feet above tlie sea level. We are very imperfectly ac- auainted with this system of mountains ; \xe general altitude di the range., however, is BuppoMcd to vary from 10,0 nay River to the Kootanle (with a Hhork tunnel 4600 feet). 5%5 feet. 6. Vermillion PasB, from the South SaB> katchewaii by Fort Bow (4100 feet) (o the Kootanle. 4U47 feet. 6. Kicking Horse Pass, by Bow River and Kicking Horse River to the Upper Co- lumbia. 5420 feet. 7. Howse Pass, from Deer River by Blue- berry River to the Upper Columbia. C347 feet. 8. TAte fJaune or Yellowhead Paes, from the Athabasca to the Upper Eraser. 3760 feet. The principal pass on United States ter- ritory IB the South I'BSS, in about lat. 42" 30' N., and Ion. lOlP 30' W. Its elevation ii about "500 feet above the sea. The Union Paclttc railroad crosses the Rocky Moun- talns near the sources of the Missouri and Columbia at an elevation of about 6000 feet aliove the sea. Amid the valleys and forges of this stupendous system of mountaiiiB, some of the largest rivers of the globe have their birth. Of these, the Athabasca, Peace and Mackenzie lind their outlet in the Polar Sea ; the Saskatchewan in the Atlantic, through Hudson's Bay ; the Missouri and its tributaries find an exit in the MisBis- Bipnl ; while the Rio del Norte, the Colorado ana the Columbia take opposite directioiiB, the first through the valley of New Mexico to the (lulf of Mexico ; the second through the deserts of Utah to the Gulf of Califor- nia ; while the last, from the N., bursting through the Cascade and coast ranges, rushes to join the mighty Pacific, bearing the onlv water that reaches that Ocean di- rectly from this range. Of the geological structure of the Rocky Mountains little is SB yet known. Volcanic rocks are known to exist in many places on the slopes or sides. According to the most recent reports there is, between the heads of Aladison Uiver and the upper waters of the Yellow- RON LovelVs Gazetteer of [877] British North America.

HEIjEN'S ISLAND, a beautiful island in the St. Lawrence, opposite the E. end of the city of Montreal, formerly the property of the Barons of Longueuil but now of the Crown. It is about three-quar- ters of a mile long by one-third of a mile broad, and is clothed with tine trees. This island was granted by the King of France to the Sieur le Moine de Longueuil, on the 3rd of November, 1672. In May, 1771, the Baroness de Longueuil married David Alexander Grant (grandfather of the pre- sent Seigneur) and they lived in the family mansion, a splendiil stone editicO, with outbuildings and a large garden atcaclied, on the south bank of the island, opposite Longueuil. In 1812, the British Government purchased St. Helen's Island, with Isle Konde and Isle au Fralses, for £15,000. and the Baronial residence was converted into the officers' quarters. During the occupa- tion of the island by the Imperial authorities (over 50 yearaj several valuable buildings were erected and improvements of various kinds effected. It was the depot for valua- ble stores of every kind for the Montreal district. The grand magazine alone would accommodate nearly 6,000 barrels of powder, while expensive magazines and other build- ings could be readily fitted up for 6,000 more. The ordnance store building next the river, opposite Molson's distillery, is of immense capacity, and in good condition, and will easily accommodate an equipment of six field batteries of artillery : the armory on the east side, built a short time before the departure of the military, and 2 Stories high, is also of great capacity ; the ground floor alone, in addition to accommo- dation for powder, will hold 40,000 stand of arms. The Infantry barracks, with bomb- proof kitchen andCommlHsariiitbakery.will easily accomjnodate 7 or 8 officers and 100 men. At the northern extremity are work- shops and cottages for artificersand laborers, a practice battery for a floating target in Hochelaga Bay, and a good wharf with 10 feet alongside at summer level. At the south of upper end of the island there is a rifle range of BOO yards, with metal shields and target, and a saluting platform battery of 9 guns on the side facing the city. There are still the remains of an old French redoubt at the south west point opposite the city, and lines of entrenchments on the opposite extremity facing Hochelaga Bay. The only works of defence erected by the British Government appear to have been two block houses for the accommodation of about 400 men, principally for musketry and light guns on the top, and the construction of a ^a e ctforUt vtlle; ention, il la ite pour faire futur ^tabli»- ^pouse, qui, en d'en ^eter ar il est a re- nom de Ste. nombre qu'il 18 de Quebec, 6 de la Place- etablir." m the above by Samuel do itures of this -and defence, lieve that the It refuge here the Iroquois, of thcAbori- ig barbarities settlers, and isposed to be ,8 also a depot , while settle- .in kind.

The city is regularly laid out and well built. It stands on a declivity, and when approached from the sea has an imposing appearance. The whole of the elevated portion of the city consists of solid rock, which, for the purpose of forming tolerable streets, has had in some places to be exca* vated to a depth of 30 and 40 feet. The city was almost completely destroyed by tire in 1876, but was rebuilt in a short time in a more handsome manner. Many of the old landmarks have passed away, but in their place have arisen buildings in which the beat architectural skill has been displayed. These buildings are chiefly of brick and stone, and many of the public edifices have an elegant appearance. The principal ones are St. Mary's Cathedral (R.C.), Trinity ChurcL Lunatic Asylum, City Hospital, Court House and Gaol, and Skating Rink. There are 23 places of worship in St. John, viz. : Church of England 4 ; Roman Catholic 3; Presbyterian 5 ;WeBleyan Meth- odist 4 ; Baptist 4 ; Congregational 1 ; Methodist Episcopal 1, and Bible Chris- tian L The educational \n8titution8 comprise a grammar school, a Madras school, and a number of public and private schools.

The thriving Huburb of Carleton, on the opposltu side of tlio harbor, is Included within the city corporathin. The harbor of 8t. John Is canaclous, safe and never obstructed by ice. lis entrance, about 2 miles S. of the city, is protected by Partridge Island, on which are a (luaran- tine tiospital ami a lighthouse, the lanturn 166 feet above the level of theser. The passage W. of the Island has in - of the harbor, at high water the watera ' the harbor are 6 feet higher than those the river, hence the phenomena of a fall 'wards ai.d in- wanls at every tide. Abi \ tlie falls the tide seldom rises more than 4 feet. When the WAters of the harbor are on a level ves- sels can pass the falls, and this can be effected only during a period of 16 or 20 minutes at each ebb and flow of the tide. At times of great Ireshets, occasioned by the sudden melting of the snow, the tides do not rise to the level of the river, and oonseque'itly it is not possible for vessels to ascend the fall. The depth of the fall Is about 17 feet. Spanning the rocky gorge about 100 feet above low water, is a magniti- cent suspension bridge 640 feet in lengtn. St. John is the entrepot of a wide extent of country, abounding in agricultural re- sources, minerals, and valuable timber. Its admirable situation at the mouth of one of the largest rivers in North America, with a harbor open all the year round, with regular steam communication with all the main ports of Nova Scotia, and the northern por- tion of the United States, with flrst-class railways running from it in every direction, with extensive maritime and manufacturing interests, ensures the certainty of its be- coming a city of the greatest commercial importance. St. John has manufactories of iron cast- ings, Bteam engines, machinery, edge tools, nails, cotton and woollen goods, boots and shoes, leather, wooden ware, soap and candles, carriages, locomotives, agricul- tural implements, lumber, paper, sugar boxes, &c. Between 600 and 900 men are yearly en- gage Join ed In the flshnries in the harbor of St. II. Salmon, shad, herrings, alewlvcH, halibut, and haddock are taken in large (luantltles. The street* of .St. .lob are llghtetl with gas, and the city is well supplied with water from a lake 4 niileH in rear of the clt 7- Tin lie railway system of New Brunswick centres at St. John. The great Intercolonial connects the city with Nova Scotia and Quebec and Ontario ; the St. .John ami Maine connects It with the United States ; and the (Irand Southern with St. Oeorgo, St. Andrews, and St. Stephen. Although settlements have been made In Acadia for many years no mention Is made of .St. John until 1004, when the French ex- plorer, Champlain, pilot of an expedition commanded by M. de Mt.

Bliore of Liake Ontario, in York co., 333 mllea W.S.W. of Montreal, 161 mileHfroni Kingatun, 39 miles N. by E. of Hamilton, and SOU miles N.W. of Wiiahlngton. Lat. 43° 49' 4" N., Ion. 79^ 71' 6" W. Mean temperature of the year 44°4 ; winter 26°4 ; summer 63°8 Fahren- heit. The bay is entered from the west by a nar- row channel, and is separated from the lake by a low peninsula about 6 miles lung, en- closing a beautiful basin 1% milen in diame- ter, forniing a safe and weA sheltered har- bor, capable of containing a large number of vessels. The peninsula of late jrears has been cut in two by the action of the waters of the bay and laUe, the western portion now forming an island which has become a favorite resort of the citizens during the summer mouths. A commodious hostelry (Hanlon's Hotel) is now built on the island, with many summer residences, a number of steam ferries connecting these with the city. Gibraltar Point is ttie name given to the S. W. angle of the inland, un which there is an excellent lighthoase. and near by the filtering basin, from whicn the city is sup- plied with its drinking water from the lake. The site of the town is low, but rises sentlv from the water's edge,— the observa- tory being 108 feet above the Lake. The streets generally cross each other at right angles, most of them running parallel with the bay. and intersected by others which have a N. and S. direction, inclining slightly to the W., the whole forming nearly a paral- lelogram. The principal streets running E. and W. in the denser portions of the city are Front, Wellington, lung, Adelaide, Richmond, and Queen streets ; and of the cross streets, Jarvis, Church, Yoiige, Bay, York, and Sim- coe streets.

Many of the stores, especially the wholesale ones, and private dwellings, are quite palatial in their out- ward aspect and interior structure.

Lat. 48'> 19' to 50° 53' N.. Ion. 123= 17' to 128^ 28' W. Length from N.V. to S. E. 278 miles ; breadth varying from 50 to 65 miles. Total area 15,937 square miles (about half the size of Ireland). On the K. and N. E. it is separated from British Columbia by the Gulf of Georgia and Qnoen Charlotte's Sound, and on the S. from that of the United States by the Strait of Sau Juan-de-Fuca ; on the N. and W. it lies open to the North Pacific. This island was «lis- covered by Juan de Fuca, a Greek, in 1592. Captain Cook coasted along the western shore in 1778, and supposed jt to form part of the mainland. The tirst British settle- ment was made at Nootka Sound in 1778 by some London merchants. Spain, liowever, bid claim to the west coast of America, south of 60°, and her cruisers seized the British trading vessels. To resent this a large fleet was assembled at Spithead, but war was avoided by the concessit >n of Spain. In 1792 the island was visited by Vancouver, a lieutenant in the British Navy, who minutely surveyed the whole coast line, and so accurately, that his charts are in use to the present day. Up to the discussion of the Oregon boundary tiuestion it attracted little attention, when, by the treaty of 1846, it was vested in Great Britain. In 1849 it was granted to the Hudson's Bay Company for tlie purposes of colonization, but tlieir control ceased in 1859, when the island became a British Colony, under a complete form of Government. In 1860 the island and the mainland were united under the nivnie of British Columbia, and so continued until the 20th of July, 1871, at which date that large and beautiful colony became one of tlie provinces of the Dominion of Canada. Viuicouver Island is noted for its rich coal mines, its magnificent harbors, its valuable freestone quarries, its delijihtful climate, and its forests of fine timoer. Gold has also been found, but in small quantity. Victoria, at the S.E. extremity of the island, is the capital of British Columbia.

In the interim Manitoba was constituted a Province of the Dominion confederation, with Winnipeg as the Provincial capital. Tliis gave a metro- politan character to the place, and brought the elements of political autonomy in its train, making it the headquarters of the Provincial Government, where the residence of the Lieutenant-Governor and all the fmblic dei)artment8 of the Province are ocated, as well as the superior courts and court house and jail. The Dominion Gov- ernment, too, have made the city the head- quarters for locallv transacting business in Manitoba and the Northwest. The city was incorporated in November, 1873, when its population numbered only some 2,000. The assessment of real estate, which at that time was but a little over $2,000,000, has in 1880— less than six years— increase*! to nearly 85,000,000. During 1880, building has been done in the city to the amount of $1)22,325— ajid real estate to the amount of $1,250,000 has changed hands. The territorial extent of the city is about 2,000 acres. The revenue for 1880 was about j?80,000, of which $60,000 was taxes and the balance licenses, etc. Bonds have been Issued twice by the cor- poration—in 1875 to till amount of $250,000 10" j'eneral improvements ; and in 1880 to tlie amount of S200,000 for the building of the Red River bridge. The mcre?.!<<'le and comm jrclal Interests of Winnipeg are as yet but In tlielr Infancy, but ^iant strides are being made in this direction. There are three banks in the city, all doing a good business, the Bank of Montreal Merchants, and Ontario Bank. The wholesale mer- cantile trade is fast rising into Importance, and an enormous business has recently been developed in the North- West. The folh'Wing is a statement of the customs' retUj ns, ending the fiscal year 1872, the first recorded, and that ending June 30th, 1880 :— 1872. 1880- Imports, Canadian goods $225,000 00 $3,599,980 00 Exports to Foreign countries 125,000 00 562,714 00 Imports, Foreign goods 926,259 00 1,227,005 00 Customs duties 46,839 90 297,768 98 The statement from the Inland Revenue Department is equally satisfactory. The Inland Revenue office here was started In May, 1873. The total receipts of all kinds for the first year were $3,797.29. The total receipts for the year ending 30th June, 1880, were as follows :-t- Llcenses Tobacco Ex manuf Tobacco Ex warehouse. Spirits Ex manufactory Spirits Ex warehouse... Malt Ex manufactory..

If some slight obstructions were removed this would prove a most in- valuable commercial stream for Winnipeg. The Northwestern Navigation Line carried up the Assinlboine in 188(», withoi\e steamer, the Marquette, between May Ist and the 15th October, 2,150 tons of freight. The freight down amounted to 1620 tons. Twenty trips were made, and Fort Ellice was reached up to the middle of August. The passenger travel was also very large. The Winnipeg and Western Transportation Company have a mercantile fleet, consisting of the steamers Minnesota, Manitoba, Alpha iuid Cheyenne, and have done an extensive business on both the Red and Assinlboine Rivers, amounting in the aggregate to about 12,000 tons, of which 4,000 tons were on the latter stream. In addition to this the trade to and from Lake Winnipeg by the Hudson's Bay steamer Colvllle, the Victoria and Wni. Robinson, is to be taken into account, whose aggregate tonnage has been very large during the past year. A large amount of lumber has also been towed down In barges from the saw mills In a number of the rivers that rtow into Lake Winnipeg. The Emerson branch of the Canadian Pacific Railway did a very large trade, the volume of which Is largely Increasing every month. Winidpeg, besides being the poli- tical and judicial metropolis of the North- west, has also become the educational centre. The i'rovincial Board of Education holds its sittings here, and the city Is also the seat of the University of Manitoba, to which is affiliated St. John's College, one of the oldest here ; St. Boniface College, which has recently erected a magnificent building valued at $30,000, and Manitoba College, a younger but also a flourishing institution. These are supplemented by two very fine ladies' colle;.!es,oneSt. John's Ladles' School bein^ valued at $12,000, and St. Mary's Academy, a new and handsome structure just approaching completion on Notre Dame street, valued at $15,000. In addition to thesp higher seats of learning there are the public and separate schools which are well attended. The growth of church congrega- tions has also been very rapid ; It is but a very few years ago that church accommoda- tion was very limited, and the number of worshippers also very small. To-day there are several stately church edifices and others projected. The Prer hyterians have Knox Church, a very fine building costing $25,000, and the Roman Catholics have St. Mary'schnrch.nowapproaching completion, valued at $.30,000, besides the Cathedral in St. Boniface. The Methodist Church of Canada have two churches— Grace and Zion — the latter being a handsome edifice. The Episcopalians have also two churches In the city— Holy Trinity and Christ's Church — besides St. John Cathedral adjoining the northern suburbs.

Tlio induHtries of the city are as yet in their Infancy, but when the drawback ociiasioiied by the scarcity of fuel is taken Into consideration, it will be admitted that the record in this direction is a creditable one for two or three years. Within the last year or two there has been material pro- gieHsniado in both the character and design of many of the public and private buildings, in fact some have gone up this year that will compare favorably with those of any other city. A good class of artisans have arrived in the city, and in the general growth of the city their handiwork has been one of the principal elements in the success that has been attained. Three brickyanis have been established dur'.ng the year, which, with one previously in operation, must have manufactured 3,000,000 brioc this season. There are two grist mills, one foundry and machine shop, six steam saw mills and lumber establishments, two brew- ries, two malt houses, one distillery, two cigar manufactories, a soap factory, a bis- cmt factory, and also a number of carriage and blacksmitliing establishments. In this connection it may be mentioned that live or six of the leading agricultural implement manufacturers have handsome warehouses doing a rushing trade here : in fact it may bo stated, without fear of contradiction, that in no other place of the Dominion is there so large a trade done in farming im- plements as in Winnipeg. There are some thirty-flve hotels in the city, some of which are very commodious houses, and a great improvement on what existed even tliree years ago. There are several daily news- papers, also a job printing establishment and book bindery. There is a manufactory in which stone of a very good quality is made. There are, in addition to the above, a number of minor industries. Pop. 14,000. WINGLE, a post office in Renfrew co.. Out. WINONA, or ONTARIO, a post village in Wentworth co., Out., on the G. W.

Its W. portion is opposite Kingston. Its coast is,rather irregular, in- dented with beautiful and picturesque bays, which are a great resort for tourists in the summer season. The shores are suflticiently high to prevent the surf from washing up on the land, and is composed of line gravel or limestone rock, which gives the whole coast a cleanly and attractive appearance. Its greatest width is 7 miles, and length about 21 miles, and has 30,600 acres of as good land as is to be found in the province. There are many evidences of this island having been inhabited by Indians, as human bones and various relics peculiar to Ii\dian life have been discovered in many places. Fifty years ago Wolfe Island was almost a dense and unbroken forest, inhabited by wolves and other wild beasts. But since that period tlie wild forest has given place to the most beautiful cultivated fields and orchards. There is a thriving village, 6 churches, 15 schools, a town hall, telegraph office, grist mill, 6 stores, and a shipyard. The water around the island is as clear as crystal, and teeming with all kinds of de- licious fish, such as salmon, trout, whitefish, bass, pike, pickerel, and maskinongl.

Ion., having the province of Ontario on the north, a part of New York, Pennsyl- vania and Ohio States on the south, and a part of Michigan on the west. Its shape is elliptical, the entire length being about 240 miles ; greatest breadth, 57 miles ; average breadth, 38 miles ; computed circumference, 658 miles. The depth of the lake is less than that of any other in the chain, the greatest yet obtained from soundings being only 220 feet. Towards the shores, and especially at the western extremity, its shallowness is a serious impediment to navigation, which is entirely suspended during the winter months, in consequence of the shoal portions being frozen. The surface of Lake Erie has an elevation of 322 feet above the level of Ontario, and 665 feet above high water mark in the St. Lawrence at Quebec. There is some reason to sup- pose that it was once much higher than this. Ancient beaches have been discovered in Ohio and Michigan, having an elevation of over 100 feet above the present surface of the water. Its principal supply is by the Detroit and St, Clair Rivers, which consti- tute the outlet of the three great lakes to the N.W.,viz. : Huron, Michigan and Supe- rior. Numerous other streams also flow into it, the more important of which are the Maumee, Sandusky, Grand, Huron and Raisin. Its own waters are discharged by the Niagara River into Lake Ontario, and thence by the St. Lawrence to the ocean. The principal harbors on the coast are Buffalo, Cleveland, Toledo, Dunkirk, Erie, Sandusky Bay, and » ^nroe, all of which have been improved b^ the United States Government. The commercial importance of Lake Erie has been greatly increased by the construction of numerous canals and railroads, connecting its ports with the in- terior and the seaboard.

Ion., being bound- ed on the S. S. W. by the State of Mieliigan, and in all other directions by the Provinco of Ontario, except where it receives its sup- plies from Lakes Michigan and Superior by the Straits of Macki:-..tW and Snult Ste. Marie, and at its outlet by St. Clair River. It Is divided into two unequal t>ortions by a long peninsula named ('habot s Head, and the Ainnitoulln chain of Islaiuls. The parts to the N. and E. are called Manitou (t- c, the Great Spirit) Bay, or tho North ChaiincL and Manitoulin Lake, or Georgian Bay. With the exception of tlieso bodies of water, and Saginaw Bay, the outline of Lake Huron approaches in form very nearly to a cres- cent. Its position, lengthwise, is about S. S.E. and N.N. W., and the distance from one extremity to the other, following the curve, does not vary much from 280 miles. The greatest breadth, exclusive of Georgian Bay, Is 105 miles ; average breadth 70 miles ; estimated area 20,400 xquare miles. Tlio surface of the water is elevated 19 feet above Lake Erie, 352 feet above Ontario, and 600 feet above the level of the sea. The depth of Lake Huron is greater than that of any other in the chain, averaging, probably, not less than 100 feet. Off Saginaw Bay, it is said that leads have been sunk 1800 feet, or 1200 feet below the level of the Atlantic Ocean, without reaching bottom. The waters are remarkably clear, especially towards the Straits of Mackinaw, and very pure and sweet. It is to their peculiar transparency that Dr. Drake attributes the fact, which he ascertained by actual experi- ment, that the temperature of the water at the surface and 200 feet below the Bame spot wa.s precisely the same— 56°. The sun's rays pass through them as through a cloudless atmosphere, without meeting with sutticient solid matter in nuspension to elicit heat. This lake is said to contain up- wards of 3000 considerable islands. It is the reservoir of numerous streams, and its coast affords very flue harbors.

Length 30 miles (of which A miles are in Vermont); breadth from 1 to 4 miles. The bosom of the lake is everywhere studded with Islands, generally cove ed with trees to the water^ edge. The sur- rounding scenery Is exceedingly pictur- esque. Along its western shore are several mountains, prominent among which are "Owl's Head" (which rises 2500 feet above the lake, and from the summit of which a grand panoramic view is to be had), " Kle- phantls " and the Sugar Loaf. The eastern shore, with its gentle slopes and cultivated farms, present a pleasing contrast to the bold, mountainous aspect of the western. The lake empties Itself into the beautiful Biver St. Francis at Sherbrooke. by means of the River Magog. At the outlet of the lake is the pi-ettv village of Magog, and at its head stands Newi>ort- During uio sum- mer months a steamer of liirgo tonnage runs between these two places.

MINAS BAY, a remarkable bodv of water in Nova Scotia, the east arm of the Bay'of Fundy, penetrating 60 miles inland and terminating in Chignecto Bay. The ddes here rush in with great impetuosity and form what is called the bore. At the equinoxes they have been known to j-ise from 60 to 70 feet, while in Halifax harbor, on the opposite coast, the spring tides rise only from 6 to 9 feet. Minas Bay receives a great number of small rivers, the principal ot which, called the Avon, is navigable. MINC AN, a large river of Quebec, enterK the N. enore of the St. Lawrence 465 miles below Quebec. It is one of the finest salmon streams in the province, and excellent for trout.

E. coast of New Brunswick, lat. 47° V N., Ion. 64° 5.3' W., being the estuary of the Miramichi River. Opposite t>he mouth of the bay are Fox and Passage Islands. MIRAMICHI, a river of New Brunswick, derives its name from the Mic-Mac Indians, the meaning of which is the " Happy Retreat." It is one of the largest livers In the province, its total length being 220 miles, and its mouth 9 nules in width, the tide flowing 40 miles fr jm the Gulf. The laiios on either side are fertile, the scenery rather tame, but charming, and the farn- 'louses scattered along its entire length have a cheerful and comfortable appearance. Nel- son, Newcastle, Douglas, and Chatham are the principal villages and towns on the river, the first occuping the junction of the north-west and south-west branches, and the others lying on both sides of Miramichi Bay. Shipbuilding is largely engaged in at these places. The river is navigable for large-sized ships 2 miles above Newcastle, where it is crossed by the bridges of the Intercolonial railway, for small schooners 20 to 25 miles further, and for canoes 40 to 60 miles above the bridge. The first ship that entered the Miramichi was the frigate which took the remains of General Wolfe from Quebec to England in 1759, a storm having driven her in for safety. ITie branches of the Miramichi are celebrated for their splendid salmon and trout. A fish breeding establishment, situate on Stew- art's Brook, one of its tributaries, is in course of completion by the Government. The Miramichi itself abounds with salmon, sturgeon, codfish, mackerel, herring, bass, shad, alewives, trout, eels, smelts, lobsters, and oysters. The Miramichi is fed by a large number of tributaries ranging from 18 to 100 miles in length. The principal ones are Cain's, Bay du Vin, Nappan, Bartibog, Renous, Bartholemew and Black Rivers. The south-west or main branch of the Miramichi takes its source in a lake a short distance from the Tobique, a river running into the St. John, and flowing pretty equably but with considerable rajiidity over a shingly and rocky bed in an easterly course it rolls into the Gulf of St. Lawrence through a large and beautiful bay, in lat. 47° 6' N., Ion. 64° 53' W. In the immediate vicinity of its source are 3 or 4 lakes ; and about 90 miles from its head it becomes con- siderably expanded in consequence of the number of small rivulets flowing into it. The north-west branch joins the main river about 35 miles from its mouth. It rises in highlands bordering on the east side of the Nepisiquit, with which it is connected by a short portage leading to the Falls, and runs over a calcareous and rather rocky forma- tion. It is 90 miles in length, and receives in its course several large tributaries, of which the principal are the Little River, the Tomcggonips, Portage River, Great and Little Sewogle, and the Little South West. Most of these rivers proceed from lakes, and are navigable for canoes during the summer months. The tide flows up the North West Miramichi 16 miles. It i« navi- gable for vessels of 15 feet draught for 3 miles of tltis distance, for rchoonerb of 60 or I m MIS Lakes and Rivers in [496] British North America.

MlUA UIVER, of Gape Breton CO., N.S., is about :j2 inilea lone, and falls into the bead of Mira Bay, on Uie Atlantic coast. Its entrance is narrow, with from 7 to !( feet of water (according to tides), but it widens Hnd uecpeuH directly inside. In some places it is from half to three-quarters of a mile wide, and is studded with islands. It is naviga- ble for small vessels for 25 miles, and is frequented by several kinds of tish, espe- cially Balmoii, eels and gospereaux. Tnere are three bridges over this river. The line of railway from Sydney to Louisburg is surveyed to cross 2 miles above its estuary. MISINABE, a lake of the Noiih West Territories, 60 miles N. E.of Lake Superior. Moose liiver issues out of the lake, and flows N. E. about 250 miles to its drainage in James's Bay. On tlie Ijorders of the lake is Misinabe House , a trading post of the Hudson's Bay Company. MISIQUINIPI, a river of Quebec. See Ten art of Lake Mistassini) was surveyed iVr 30 miles — 13 miles to the Hudson's Bay Company's post {333^2 miles N. of Montreal), and 17 miles beyond it. At this point the lake opens out both to the right and Uft ; and Mr. Bur- cess, the officer in charge of the Hudson's Ba^ Company's post, told me that from this point the western shore trends north for about 6 miles, where a bay 12 miles across, called Poonicfauan, stretches S. and S. W. for a distance of about 30 miles. H<> further informed me that across the bay the coast line continues in a north-westerly direction for 40 or 45 miles farther, and thence north for about 60 miles. If this estimate is ap- proximately correct, the length of Lake Mistassini, including the bays, would be about 160 miles, or but little less tlmn that of Lake Ontario. I have no information regarding its breadth. Besides the 2 bays already mentioned, there is a third on the E. side called Cabistachuan, which runs to the S. and W. from a point about midway between the Hudson's Bay Company's po^t and the end of our measurement (2!)0 miles from Lake St. John), and is about 20 miles deep. At the south end of this a stream of the same name, said to be of considerable size, enters from the eastward." The coun- try around the lake, so far as is known, is level and favorable for agriculture. Good- sized potatoes are grown at the Hudson's Bay Company's post. Mr. Walter McOuat, of the Geological Survey, who surveyed another portion of the Lake, in 1S72. says : " We measured on this lake a coast line of about 150 miles, including no bays less than a mile in width. The mam body of the lake was found to be of a very eloiij^aled form, lying in a S. W. and N. E. direction, with a perceptible curve between the south-west extremity and the farthest point sien by us, the concavity of the curve being towards the south-east. A long rugged tongue of land, upwards of 20 miles in length, running from the S W. end, divides that end of the lake into two parts ; and, of these, the one on the south-east divides into several long arras, which are out of the general direction, having a nearly north and south trend. A series of long, narrow islands, which were seen only from a distance, extends for many miles in the same direction beyond tba ;a.

We carried our measurements round the long point, to the bottom of the bay on the north-west side of it, called Poonichuau Bay, and thence along the main north-west shore of the lake for about 70 miles from the extieme S. W. point. As no land was visible from this position, looking in a north-easterly direction from a point about 40 feet above the level of the water, the whole length of the lake cannot be much, if any, less than a hundred miles. It ap- pears, however, to be comparatively narrow, being probably not more than 15 miles wide, unless the witlth increases beyond where we saw it." Another and more recent explorer states that from its size,it8 beauty, its storms, the abundance of game along its shores, the multitudinous tishes of different species inhabiting its deep, clear waters, and its legends, it is held in peculiar love, in awe, and in reverence by the nomadic Indians of these parts. The same characteristics ought to make it a favorite place of resort for sportsmen of the civiltzed type. But it seems that the Lake Mistassini region has better claims to consideration than those it derives f vom its advantages as a country for game, rie further says : The area of this lake equals that of Lake Ontario, while its shores in mineral wealth are not surpassed by those of Lake Superior. This valuable district, from its geographical position, rightly belongs to the Province of Quebec. And would the talented and enterprising gentlemen at the head of the Lake St. John Colonization project but deign to use their influence in obtaining from our patriotic Government suDicient means to make a survey of the Lake and its shores, they would confer a lasting benefit on the Pro- vince they love so well, and for which they are praiseworthily doing so much. The climate of the Mistassini country is amar- velously tine one, highly conducive to lon- gevity and juvenescence. Summer tliere, though short, is extremely hot, the winter somewhat long, but clear and cold, the pre- vailing wind is the N. W., which brings in its train bn'glit weather for all seasons. I In striking contrast to this is the east wind, which 111 summer is invariably accompanied by rain, and In winter by snow. Life in this region is a most enjoyable one. Nowhere else are Indians so free from vice and crime. MISTASSINI (" The Large Rf)ck"),aviver of Quebec, is formed by the junction of two rivers, the Washieaniiscou and the Kakis- sagan, and runs into the N. W. side of Lake St. John, about .3 miles from the River Ashuapmruohouan. It is about 3 miles wide at itw mouth, including a group of islets, but is extremely shallow. It is also called the Ki\ ifere do Sable or Sand River, on account of its sandy banks and the sand shoals at its vnouth, which extend consider- ably into the lake. This river is supposed to be the ancient route leading te Lake Mis- tassini. MOER RIVER, a river of Sherbrooko co., Que. StOIRA, a river of Ontario, empties into 83 the Bay of Quints at the flourishing town of Belleville, after a rapid course of about 30 miles.

The villages of Cannifton, Foxboro, Plainfleld, Stoco, Tweed and Madoc are situated on this river. The Moira works a number of mills and factories, and is celebrated as one of the finest water powers in Ontario. MOISIC, or MISTESHIPU RIVER. •' the Great River of the Montagnais Indians," takes its rise in some of the lakes and swamps of the highlands of eastern Quobec, and enters the Giilf of St. Lawrence in Ion. 66° 10', about 18 miles E. of the Bay of Seven Islands. For centuries this river has been one of the leading lines of communication from the interior to the coast. It is one of the best salmon streams in the world, and is celebrated for its wild, majestic and wonder- ful scenery. At its mouth are extensive deposits of iron sand.

MONTMORENCY, a river of Quebec, rises in Snow Lake, and enters the St. Law- rence 8 miles N . E. of Quebec, after forming a cataract 250 feet in height. This river is said to be a torrent from its source to its mouth. MONTMORENCY, FALLS OF, situated at th« mouth of the Montmorency River, 6 miles from Quebec. They are higher than those of Niagara, being more than 250 feet , but they are very narrow— being only about fifty feet wide. These falls are a great attraction to tourists and visitors to the ancient capital. The drive to them is very beautiful ; the scenery on the road through Beauport, where the Provincial Lunatic Asylum is built, and back again being full of interest. About 2 miles above the falls is a curious formation on the river bank called " the Natural Steps," being a series of layers of the limestone rock, each about a foot 111 thickness, and for about half a ndle receding one above the other to the height of nearly 20 feet, as regularly as if formed by the hand of man. They are great objects of wonder and curiosity. There are several stores and hotels near the falls, and at their base several large saw mills and factories, employing from 600 to 800 hands.

NEPIGON, a lake and river of Ontario. See Nipigon. NEPISIQUIT, a river of New Brunswick, takes ltd rise near the head waters of the Tobique, and enters Bathurst Bay after a course of about 100 miles. It is celebrated for its fine large salmon, and runs with great rapiditv. Apart from the gloom and gran- deur of the mountain scenery at its source, and from its many lovely tributaries, it can boast of falls and rapids which are ex- tremely interesting. From these rapids it derives the name of Nepisifiuit, or Foamy River. Twenty miles from Bathurst are the Great Falls, wuich it would seem Nature had deemed so beautiful that she encased them in flint and granite. For miles above and below the cataract the river is very much contracted, and the banks rocky and perpendicular, i'he total height of these falls is 140 feet, the leap consisting of four. At the foot of each are deep basins, and below them, for about a mile, a number of pools and rapids, whose gloomy but fascinat- ing features are greatly enhanced by the firevailing roar and by the blending together n some places of the black water with the white foam. About 7 miles above Bathurst small boats largest of these rivers and List or Dunn's River, flowing into Pla- centia Bay.

NEW PRAGUE RIVER, a small stream in Kings co., P.E.I., noted for salmon . NIAGARA, a river of North America, forming the outlet of Lake Erie and a part of the boundary between Canada and the United States. It commences at Black Rock, 2 miles N. of Buffalo, and flowing northward, enters Lake Ontario after a course of about 34 miles. About 3 miles below its southern extremity it divides into two arms, which embrace an island, called Grand Island, 12 miles long, and from 2 to 7 miles wide. Two or three miles below Grand Island the entire waters of the Niagara are precipi- tated over a perpendicular ledge of rocks about 160 feet in height, fonning the Ni- agara Falls, the most stupendous cataract on the globe. The rapids above the falls have a descent of 57 feet in about half a mile. The river is navigable 7 miles to Lewiston, and above the falls for small boats from the old Fort Schlosser to Lake Erie, near 20 miles. Two miles below the cataract the river is spanned by a magnifi- cent suspension bridge, 800 feet in length. NIAGARA, FALLS OF, a mighty cat- aract situated partly in Canada rmd partly in the United States, on the Niags.ra, a river 34 miles in length, running from Lake Erie to Ontario, and here pouring the waters of the Great Lakes over a perpendicular pre- cipice, 166 feet in height. The falls are about 20 miles below the entrance to the river, at the N. E. extremity of Lake Erie, and 14 miles from its i jnction with Lake Ontario. About 3 miles below its com- mencement, the river divides into two arms, which embrace an island, called Grand Island, 12 miles long, and from 2 to 7 miles wide. The banks of the upper portion of Niagara River are low, not usually exceed- ing 20 or 30 feet, and the current is comparatively moderate. Nearly 3 miles below Grand Island the rapids (scarcely less interesting than the falls themselves) commence, and after o course of rather more than half a milo terminate in the great cataract.

NIP of a mile wide and half a mile long, from N. to S., extends to the very brow of Uie precipice and divides the falls into two por- tions, the higher of which is on the Amerl> can side, but the greater body of water on the Canadian. Below the falls the river runs between perpendicular cliffs for 3 or 4 miles in a channel of from 300 to 800 feet wide, with great force and impetuosity, till it is released from its narrow and rock v bed, below the Queenston Heights, from whence it flows tranquilly into Lake Ontario. Be- tween the falls and Queenston (where navigation commences) occur two rapids, caused partly by the narrowing of the bed of the river, and partly by the rocks at the bottom. At the head of the first rapids, two miles below the falls, the river is spanned by a suspension bridge, 800 feet in lent^th and 230 feet above the water. At the southern extremity of the first rapids an angle in the river causes a retlex in tlie cur- rent, which forms a number of eddies, com- monly called "The whirpool," more re- markable for the heaping up of the waters in the raidtlle of the river, by the impetus of the current, than for any peculiar vio- lence of the whirlpools themselves. Below this pool is another rapid of about half a mile in extent. NICK LAKE, a lake of Brome co., Que., noted for salmon trout. NICOLET, a beautiful lake in the co. of Wolfe, Que., about 2% miles long and 1 mile broad. It contains several islands, abounds with fine trout, and is surrounded by very attractive scenery.

N.TGEE RIVER, a rapid titream runninp in a S. W. direction in Stanstead co.. Que. NIKOTJBAU, a river of Quebec, forms the first part of the River Ashnapmouchuan. Its upward course is generally north-west- erly to the height of land which divides the waters of the Saguenay from those flowing to Hudson's Bay. It passes through several lakeK. At the head of the fourth it divides into two branches, one comes from the N. E. and tho other, in its upward course, con- tinueifi north-westerly, and passes a sort of double lake, called Narrow Bridge Lake, where the highest lake, called Whiteflsh Lake, is r( ached by a portage of about 1 mile. This is close to the watershed, which is a)so the boundary line between the Province of Quebec and the North West Territories and is 170 miles from St. John, 269 miles l:l< of Montreal. At Lake Ni- koubau the spruce, tamarac, balsam, fir, ftc., attain a good size.

NINE MILE RIVER, a river of Bruce CO., Out., on wliich is the village of Luok- now. NIPIGON, or NEPIGON, a large lake of Ontario, 30 miles N. W. of Lake Superior. Its general outline is elliptical, the longest diameter, a little west of north, being sev- enty miles, and the shortest 6U miles. The shore on the southern side is deeply in- dented by large bays ; and on the northern, Ombabika Bay is nearly 20 miles long with an entrance only a mile wide. These in- dentations increase very much the coast line, which measures 680 miles. Lake Nipi- fon is very thickly studded with islands. t is estimated that there are more than 1000. Some fiOO or 600 have already been ex. amined, varying in size from 8 miles In di. ameter down to a few chains in length. The streams flowing into the lake are numerous. The 18 largest are : Kayoshk or Gull River, Na-me-wa-min-i-kan or Sturaeon River, Sometimes also called the Poplar Loiige iver, from the name of the Hudson Bay Company's post at its mouth,) O-na-ma-ni- sagi or Red Paint River, Pick-i-ti-gonch-ing or Muddy River, Ka-bi-to-ti-quia or the river which runs parallel to the shore, Omb&-bi-ka or Rising Rocks River, Wa-ba- nosh or Dawning Day River, Ka-ma-ka-te- waga-mig or Black River, Posli-ko-ka^gan River, Ka-wa-ba-ton-gwa or White Sand River, Ka-ba-sash-kanda-gi-sino River, Pargit-chig-a-rno or Look-out River, Sandy River, Katch-iui-9;a-<^i-na-wi or High Ilia River, Ka-n>' c'u v and Ka-nee-slia-sing River. The £Uj,je " of the country around Lake Nipigon, mv of the islands within it, is undulating, ai.d sometimes hilly, but level tracts of considerable extent occur in some places. The largest tract of good land appears to be on the south-western side of the lake. For SO miles from the Nonwatan River northwards the country is mostly level and the soil f«3r\.lle. The Indians represent this tract as continuing nearly to the Winnipeg River, becoming more level as it recedes westward. Around South and Mclntyre, the two largest bays of the south, there is a considerable area of good land. Along the Kabitotaquia on the west, on both sides of the river, the country is level and the soil sandy, supporting a growth of grass and bushes, the timber having been burnt off by repeated fires. The land is free from stones and almost ready for the plough. To the north-west- ward the country is low and a level tract.ex- tends north to an unknown distance- To the north-east along Ombabida Bay, as far as the eye can reach, the country is level and the soil is good. The climate at Lake Niplgon appears to be as well suited for agriculture as the greater part of the Pro- vince of Quebec. The timber is principally white spruce, white birch, aspen, poplar, balsam, fir, tamarac, and white cedar, with occasional trees of black ash, grey elm and white pine. Lake Niplgon is 813 feet higher than Lake Sapenor. The Indians NOI Lakes and Rivera in [602] British North America. NOR ll:- t- -<;' 1 ■ay it has fallen 3 feet in the last 35 years. The Bhores on the south and west are bolder and the water deeper than on the north and cast. The deptli of water is very L'reat. In some parts a line of 540 feet has lailed to touch bottom. Indians fi^h in upwards of 100 feet of water, not a stone's throw from the shore. The lake has its outlet in the Nipigon River, which issues from the south-east side and empties into Lake Superior. " Nipigon " is a contraction of a word signifying *' Deep Clear Water Lake." NIPIOON, a river of the district of Thun- der Bay, Ont., issues from the S. £. side of LiUio Nipigon Bay, the most northern point of Lake Superior. It is about 30 miles long, and is the largest river flowing into Lake Superior. Its size and character, and the area it drains, entitle it to be con- sidered as the continuation of the St. Law- rence beyond Lake Suporioi. Four lakes occur in its course : Lake Helen, 8 miles long and 1 wide ; Lake Jessie, 3; Lake Maria, ^y^ ; and Lake Emma, 4 miles long. The navigalion between these lakes is inter- rupted by falls and rapids. The Uiver Nip- igon iiilords the finest trout fishing on the continent. Its water is very clear.

Six miles above Ottawa the rapids begin which terminate in the celebrated Cliaudifere Falls, whose tumul- tuous waters plunge 40 feet and partly dis- appear in the Lost Cl'audifere by an under- ground passage whose subsequent outlet is unknown. At Ottawa the great river re- ceives the Rideau. distinguished on account of its canal which connects the city of Ottawa with Kingston. Its largest tributary, the Gatineau, with a course of 420 miles, comes in from the north, and drains 12,000 square miles of territory. Eighteen miles below Ottawa is the Rivifere du Li&vre, draining an area of 4100 square miles ; be- low this river there are numerous tribu- taries varying from 90 to 160 miles in length. The rapids below Ottawa are avoided by a succession of canals. The valley drained by the Ottawa is 80,000 square miles in area, for the most part covered with valuable woods, particularly red and white pine ; it is abundantly intersected with large rivers, and contains a very considerable area of the best soil.

PACIFIC OCEAN, or the GREAT SOUTH SEA, by far the largest of the great diviHions of water on the surface of the globe, extends from the Arctic to the Antartic circle, over 133° of lat. ; and from the W. coast of Amer- ica to Australia, Papua, Flores, Sumbawa, Java, Sumatra, and the E. coast of Asia, or through nearly 160 degrees of longitude. Area, estimated at 70 000,000 square mileB, exceeding that of all the dry land on the globe. In its widest part, at the equator, it Is 10,000 miles across ; towards the circles its breadth is diminished, especially in the N., where it communicates with the Arctic Ocean by Behring Strait. It is usually divided by geographers into the North and South PaciiTc, separated from each other by the equator The most distinguiishing feat- ures of the Pacific are the coniitless number of comparatively small iulands spread over its surface, more especially of its equatorial region, and the immense chain of volcanoes which stretch about continuously along its shores, forming one vast volcanic circle. In the south, it is separated from the Antartio Circle only by an arl)itrary line ; but in other directions both its boundaries and its communications with other oceans are well defined. Its coast line on the American side, though generally bold, is very little broken by inlets. On the Asiatic Bide it is very irregular. The depth of the Pacific has not been ascertained, though there seems no reason to doubt it descends much further below than the loftiest mountain heights ascend above its surface. This ocean was first seen by Europeans ir IMS. Vasco Nunez de Balboa, the Spanish Gov- ernor of Darien, proceeding on native infor- mation, set out on an exploring expedition across the isthmus, and, having ascended a hill, saw a boundless ocean spread out before him. As his view extended chiefly to tite S., he gave it the name of the Mar del Zur, or South Sea.

JOHN, a river of Quebec, joins the estuary of tne St. Lawrence at Mlngan, opposite the Island of Anticosti, after a S. course of 60 miles. It is an admirable salmon stream. The coast between the mouth of the St. John and the Bay of Seven Islands contains an abundance of black magnetic oxide of iron. ST. JOHN, a river of Quebec, joins the St. Lawrence with the L'Assomption River, N. of the Island of Montreal, after a course of about 20 mileM. ST. JOHN, (called by the Indians Pequa- gomi, which means Flat Lake,) a lake of Quebec, between the parallels of 48° 27' and 48° 51' N. latitude, and the meridians of 71° 36' and 72° 10' W. longitude, about 120 miles north of Quebec. Its general shape is cir- cular, and its circumference about 100 miles. It lies in an immense vulley, and is the reservoir into which numerous large rivers end streams empty themselves, many of which rise in the highlands that separate the North West Territories from Quebec. The principal of those rivers are the Mis- tassini, Forihonea, and Kocuatien on the N., the Ashuapmouchouan and Ouiatchoua. nish on the W., the Ouiatchouan on the S. W., and the Metabetshuan, Kushpahi' ganish and Belle Riviere on the S. By means of some of these rivers, and their lakes and tributaries, communication from Lake St. John may be had through the Batiscan or St. Maurice with the St. Law- rence, and through the Gatineau with the Ottawa. This ereat lake has its outlet into the Laguenay oy the Grande and Petite Decharge, which lie on its E. side. Its shores abou:«i with inexhaustible quarries of limestone and extensive beds of line marl. The lake contains a number of beau- tiful islands, an f the St. Francis, the St. John flows in an irregular E. S. E. course to the Grand Falls, (lat. 47° 5' N,, Ion. 67° 45' W.,) where the river has a perpendicular descent of 70 or 80 feet, abounding in picturesque scenery ; thence its direction is nearly S,, to about fat, 46° N., where it bends suddenly E,, and flows in this general direction for about 100 miles to the entrance of the outlet to Grand Lake, below which the river flows in a broad channel due S, S, W, Its entire length is estimated at 450 miles. To the Grand Falls, 225 miles from the sea, its course is wholly within the Province of New Brunswick. From a point about 3 miles above the falls, where the E, boundary of Maine intersects the St. John, to the entrance of the St. Francis, a distance of 75 miles, the boun- dary between Maine and New Brunswick is found in the middle channel or deepest water of the river. From the mouth oi the St. Francis to about lat. 46° 25' N., Ion. 70° 4' W., a distance of 112 mii^s, the river has its course wholly in Maine ; but from the point last mentioned to the Monument at the source of the river on the Metgermette Portage, a distance of about 38 miles, the right bank only is in the Province of Quebec, The principal afiluents of the St, John are the Oromocto, Aroostook, and Alagash.f rom the W., and the Kennebaccasis, Washade- moak.

St. M 11 ry ; ton, 80 miles from the Bay of Fundy ; small steamers ply to Woodstock. 75 miles farther up, and occasionally make trips to the Grand Falls. Above the Grand Falls, the St. John has been navigated by a steamer 40 miles to the mouth of the River Mada- waska, and from this point boats and canoos ascend al most to its sourcon. It is estimatud that the St. John and its tributaries allord 1300 miles of navigable waters. The urea drained is computed at 17,000,000 acres, of wl Ich 9,000,000 are in New Brunswick, 2,000,000 in Quebec, and 6,000,000 in Maine. A great portion of this is occupied by dense forests of pine, hackmatack, and other tim- ber, of which vast quantities are annually rafted down the river. The valley of the St. John is remarkable for Its fertility and picturesque beauty. ST. JOHN'S, a river of the co, of Sague- nay,Que., falls into the N. shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Schooners of 80 and 90 tons can enter its mouth, but it is not navigable any distance up. It is a flue salmon and trout stream. ST. JOHN'S BAY, on the W. coast of Newfoundland, receives the River Castor. ST. JOHN'S, a river of the co. of Gasp6, Que.,eniptieH into Gasp^ Bay at a place known as tlie Barachois or Tickle of Doug- lastown, after a course of about 70 miles. Boats can go up it a short distance, canoes can ascend to its source. It furnishes splendid salmon and sea-trout angling. ST. JOHN'S RIVER, a picturesque river of Ontario, in the district of Muskoka, noted for its beautiful cascades. ST. JOSEPH, a lake of the North "West Territories, in lat. 61° 10' N., Ion. 90° 30' to 91° 30' W. Length 35 miles; average breadth lOmiles. It receives the Gatlake River, and discbarges by the Albany River into James's Bay. ST. LAMBERT RIVER, in Laprairie co.. Que., runs into the S. shore of the St. Law- rence nearly opposite Montreal. ST. LAWRENCE, one of the largest rivers in North America, issues from Lake On- tario in about 44° 10' N. lat., and 76° 30' W. Ion., and flowing in a N. E. direction, form- ing, in a part of its course, the boundary between New York and Ontario and Quebec, falls into the Gulf of St. Lawrence by a broad estuary, in about 49° 30' N. lat.. and 64° W. Ion. Viewing this river in connec- tion with the great western lakes, of which it forms the outlet, it may be said to rise at the sources of the St. Louis, which flows into Lake Superior. It has received differ- ent names in difi'erent parts of its course ; between Lakes Superior and Huron it is called the St. Mary ; between Lakes Huron and Erie, the St. Clair and Detroit ; between Lake Ontario, the Niagara ; between I^ake Ontario and the sea, it takes the name of St. Lawrence. Its whole length, includ- ing the chain of lakes, is estimated at 2200 miles. The distance from Lake Ontario to the Gulf of St. Lawrence is about 760 miles. It is navigable for ships of the lino to Que- bec, and for vessels of 4000 tons to Montreal. Between Montreal and Lcke Ontario, the navigation is much impeded by rapids, the most important of which are the Cedar aod Lachine Rapids, the latter miles above Montreal. The totiil elevation between tide water and Lake Ontario is about 230 feet. This is overcome by 8 canals, varying from % of a mile to 11% miles in length (but in the aggregate only 41 miles of canal), having locks 200 luot long between the gates and 46 feet wide, with an excavated trunk from 100 to 140 feet wide on the surface, and a depth of 10 feet of water. The St. Law- rence canals were deepened for paddle steamers, but from the magnitude of the rapids and their regular i'lcliMatiou the aid of the locks is not required in descending the river. The passage from the head of the lake to Montreal is made by a freighted steamer in 48 hours ; the upward trip re- quires about 60 hours. From I^ake Ontario to Lake Erie an elevation of 330 feet is over- come by a canal 28 miles in length, with 27 cut-stone locks, 130 feet long by 26'/j feet wide. These locks will pass a craft of 600 tons burthen, while those of the St. Law- rance have double this capacity. The en- largement of the former is, however, now being undertaken, so as to meet the wants of the great shipping trade of the West. The total cost of the canals connected with the navigation is estimated at $12,000,000: the enlargement of the Welland will add several millions more to this sum. By means of the Richelieu River and Chambly Canal, large vessels pass from the St. Lawrence to Lake Champlain, whi<;h communicates through the Champlain Canal with the navigable waters of tne Hudson. The princi- pal affluents of the St. liawr-nco are the Ottawa, 800 miles long, forming the boundary between Ontario and Quebec, and the St. Maurice. Batiscan, and Saguenay, from 200 to 400 miles. The breadth of the St. Lawrence is very unequal, varying from less than a mile to three or four miles. Across its mouth, from Cap Cliatte to Pointe de Monts, the distance is about 40 miles. This stream contains many islands ; in an expansion of the river near its egress from Lake Ontario there is a multitudinous group called the " Thousand Islands," presenting to the traveller an endless variety of charm- ing scenery. This portion of the river is sometimes called the "Lake of the Thou- sand Islands " (Lnc des Milks Islen). The great Victoria Bridge, erected by the Grand Trunk at a cost of about $7,000,000, spans the river at Montreal. The St. Lawrence, with its tributaries, drains an area estimated at 335,515 square miles, of which 90,000 are covered with the waters of the five great ST.

It has a number of branches flowing through a well wooded and rich mineral country. ST. MARY'S BAY, an inlet of the Atlan- tic, on the shore of Digby co., N.S. ST. MARY'S, a smsdl lake on the Gati- neau River, 40 miles above its mouth. ST. MARY'S RIVER, a rivor running into Sault Ste. Marie and nnvigable for steamboats. ST. MARY'S STRAIT, or SAULT STE. MARIE, separates Ontario from the upper peninsula of Michigan, and connects Lake Superior with Lake Huron. It commences at the S. E. extremity of the former lake, and, after a general S. E. cr rse of 63 miles onters Lake Huron by thr j channels. At some places it spreads out into lakes ; at others rushes through narrow rapids, or winds around beautiful islands. Its entire length is navigable by vessels ilrawing 8 feet of water up to within 1 mi]>' of Lake Superior. At this point the mvtural limit of steamboat navigation is arri urist. The latter are about 30 miles from the city of Three Itlvers. The most re- markable place on the St. Maurice is the Hudson Bay Company's post of La Tuque, about 100 miles iront Three Rivers. Lat. 47° 18' 30" N., Ion. 73° W. It is separated from the falls by a conical hill principally composed of granite rock, containing quartz, mica aiuifeldspar.

Nearly all the rivers described in the fore- going schedule are tidal streams, and most of them have stationary salmon and trout fisheries within the embouchure, and at bays, coves, and inlets on either sides. Those upon the norrli shore of the St. Law- rence descend out of wild, rocky and moun- tainous country. Most of these streams, with their numerous tributaries, and the large lakes at the head of each branch, present every variety of river and lake adapted to the breeding and feeding of fish. SALMON CREEK, a tributary of the Washademoak Lake, Queens co., N.B. Not now noted for salmon, but affords excellent trout fishing. SALMOr LAKE, a large lake about a mile from the village of St. Ola, in Hastings CO., Ont., well supplied with salmon and other fish. S 4LM0N LAKE, a small lake on Salmon River, Yarmouth co., N.S.

SASKATCHEWAN, a river of the North West Territories, takes its rise In the Rocky Mountains, in a small lake near Alount Forbes, in about lat 5P 50' N. Winding amongst the mountain spurs near its source it follows a N. E. direction to Point, aux Pins, thence it runs N. N. E to the foot of Big Horn Hill, whence, having received the streamlet of that name, it liastens east- ward to Mountain House. Froni this point to Fort Edmonton its general direction is N.E. ; it continued in the same direction till it crosses the 54th parallel of latitude, along which it runs and then turns southward towards Fort Pitt, and thus, between the latter and Fort Edmonton, describes a large and almost regular curve. From Fort Pitt the river continues its S. E. oourso to the Elbow, whence it turns suddenly towards the N. E., tirst reaching Carlton House and thence Cumberland House. From the latter point its general course is S. E., al- though its great winding sometimes carries it towards the N., and sometimes towards the S. This great river divides into many branches that flow capriciously through the vast plain which they cut in various, and frequently quite opposite, directions. Clearwater River joins it near Mountain House, and 75 miles farther down it re- ceives Brazeau River, called also North Branch. From its source to Mountain House, a distance of about 150 miles, tlie Saskatchewan is not navigable. From Mountain House to Edmonton, about 150 miles, it is navigable with barges, and from Edmonton to Carlton House, about 500 miles, with steamers during a couple of mouths, some years for a longer period. Between Carlton and Lake Winnipeg the river is very well fitted for navigation, ex- cept for 20 miles between Cedar Lake and Lake Winnipeg, and about the same dis- tance in Coal rapids iiear tlie juncti in which there is very fair fishing. SEVERN, a river in the North West Te?- ritories, flows through Severa Lake Pud enters Hudson's Bay on its S. W. side, E. of Pert Nelson, after a N. E. course of about 360 mik^. It is a fine river, but navigation is difficult. Bark canoes sometimes take this route in passing from Lake Winnipeg to Hudson's Bay. SEVERN, a river of Ontario, discharges the surplus waters of Lake Simcoe N.W. into Georgian Bay. Course about 20 miles. It has several rapids and falls, and runs through very beautiful scenery, SEVOGLE. a river of Northumberland co., N.B., falling into the North West River. SHABOT LAKE, a lakeof Frontenac oo., Ont.

SHAWASHKONG, a river of Ontario, a tributary of th') Madawaska, which empties into the Ottawa River. The banks of this river are for the greater part marshy, the marshes occasionally opening out over a very extensive area, through which it falls by iimumerable small casciuies. SHAWENEGAN FALI^, on the River St. Maurice, 20 miles from its outlet in the St. Lawrence. They are 120 feet in height, very picturesquely situated, and a source of considerable attraction to tourists. They are al>out 30 miles from Tliree Rivers, ;at which place the steamboats plying between Montreal and Quebec call daily. SHAWENEGAN, or MANIGOUSTO (" The foot of a rapid ''), a river of Quebec, rises in the township of Caxton, co. of St. Maurice, and joins the River St. Maurice at the celebrated Falls of Shawenegau.
