Titre :
Morning chronicle and commercial and shipping gazette
Sous un titre qui a varié (Morning Chronicle, Quebec Morning Chronicle, Quebec Chronicle), un journal de langue anglaise publié à Québec qui met notamment l'accent sur l'actualité commerciale et maritime. [...]
Fondé en 1847 par Robert Middleton et Charles Saint-Michel, ce journal est d'abord connu sous le nom de Morning Chronicle. Son programme éditorial est tourné vers les intérêts britanniques, ce qui plaît aux conservateurs et aux impérialistes. Toutefois, cela n'en fait pas une publication politique pour autant puisque l'on y évite les longs éditoriaux et les sujets polémiques, probablement pour se différencier du Quebec Gazette, ancien employeur de Middleton et féroce concurrent. Le contenu est plutôt centré sur l'actualité (majoritairement en provenance d'autres journaux anglais et américains), sur la vie commerciale et maritime, ainsi que sur la littérature (peu présente pendant les premières années). La ligne éditoriale du journal est définie comme suit : « [.] in the management of The Morning Chronicle we shall, therefore, begin by simply declaring, that, as we glory in our connexion with the British Empire, it will be our undeviating aim and unremitting endeavour, to create and foster a cordial attachment to those time-honoured institutions which have made her so illustrious in the annals of the world ». (May 18, 1847, p. 2)

[Traduction]
« [...] la direction de The Morning Chronicle, par conséquent, débute en déclarant simplement que, comme nous sommes très fiers de notre relation avec l'Empire Britannique, notre but sera sans détour de créer et d'entretenir un attachement aux honorables institutions britanniques, qui se sont grandement illustrées à travers l'histoire mondiale ». Sous Charles Saint-Michel (1849-1860), le journal devient le porte-parole des aspirations de la bourgeoisie commerciale anglaise et les sujets politiques prennent une part plus importante. L'esprit protectionniste, rattaché au torysme, teinte la rédaction. Durant la période de la Confédération, le Morning est utilisé comme tribune pour faire la promotion des idées de John A. Macdonald. Toutefois, l'attrait premier du journal reste avant tout la vie relative au commerce. En 1874, une fusion avec The Quebec Gazette met fin à une concurrence jugée ruineuse. Fondé en juin 1764, c'est l'un des plus vieux journaux d'Amérique du Nord. Une nouvelle entente survient en 1924. Pour mettre fin à une concurrence qui les affaiblit, le journal alors connu sous le nom de Quebec Chronicle and Quebec Gazette et le Quebec Daily Telegraph (fondé en 1875 par James Carrel, il défend les idées populaires et est reconnu comme étant libéral) s'associent et deviennent le Chronicle Telegraph. Les nouvelles prennent une place prépondérante dans les colonnes de la « nouvelle » publication. À partir de 1934, le journal est connu sous le nom The Quebec Chronicle-Telegraph. Il paraît toujours aujourd'hui. Voici les différents titres que le Quebec Chronicle-Telegraph a connus depuis ses débuts : Disponibles en ligne : The Morning Chronicle (Jan. 1847 - Nov. 1850) The Morning Chronicle and Commercial and Shipping, 1850-1888 The Morning Chronicle (Feb. 1888 - May 1888) The Quebec Morning Chronicle, 1888-1898 The Quebec Chronicle, 1898-1924 Non disponible en ligne : The Chronicle Telegraph (1925-1934) The Québec Chronicle-Telegraph (1934 à ce jour)

from Col.Ridgeway, chief of the Britiah-Afghan Boundary Commission, the news from other sources regarding the Russian movements is of the gravest character.The only redeeming feature of the intelligence for Afghanistan is that the Afghans have attached themselves more firmly than ever to our side.\u201d The Telegraph says : \u201cThe objection of the Ameer of Afghanistan to Russia\u2019s claim to a misition practically commanding Zulfikar Ass is supported by Lord Salisbury.Lord Salisbury\u2019s reluctance to consent to the Russians\u2019 offer to submit the question in dispute to a

16\u2014As a consequence of the Russian advance the Afghans have invited the British Commission to Herat for the purpose of directing defensive mea'-aures.London, July 16\u2014The Pall Mall Gazette says there should be no dispute between England and Russia about the Zulfikar Pass, or a position commanding the Pass and the possession of which by the Ameer would cut off communication between the Russian frontier at Postakro-bat and the wells and pasturages in the valley to the North of which are admitted to be Russia\u2019s.DeGiers, in the negotiations which resulted in the cession of the Pass to the Ameer, distinctly refused to concede this position to Mr.Gladstone, and he will not concede it to Salisbury.\u201cIt will,\u201d declares the Gazette, \u201cbe wanton naughtiness if Salisbury and Churchill expose themselves to a rebuff which can only be averted by war.It was Granville\u2019s folly to claim this disputed land, and it will be Salisbury\u2019s crime if there be war

her parents\u2019 house, at their request.He always had plenty of money and said he received an income through an uncle in England.During the past year articles of value bad been missed from the house, from time to time, and the servants bad been suspected.It was not until yesterday, when Mrs.Broughton\u2019s grandmother discovered that her truak had accident at Mattawa, which resulted iu the

ing last, the rafting season having closed, Mr.Lumsden, owner of the tug \u201cArgo,\u201d with his wife, family and six of the crew of the steamer, started in a low boat from Temiscamingue for Mattawa.They had passed numerous dangerous rapids en roule and reaching the hea l of Calf Rapid Lumsden and family landed to walk over tho portage, while the six boatmen '\u2019under-took to shoot the rapid, regarded by lumbermen as one of tho worst on the river.About the middle the boat shipped a heavy swell and upset and now at tho mercy of the turbulent waters they were swept beyond the roach of human aid.The terrified group on shore would catch a glimpse of the struggling men clinging with the desperation of despair to the bottom of the boat, but one by one they were washed away into the mad whirl of waters till when the bay below was re ch-ed only two men were left.A boat manned by four Indians put out from the shore and the two survivors, now half unconscious and with hands torn and bleeding from their desperate struggle to keep hold of the wrecked boat, were picked up snd taken ashore.The four who were lost were A.Martin, of Aylmer, engineer of the boat ; \\Vm.Christian, of Bristol, an old river man ; Geo.Langelier, of Quebec, and a young Englishman named Hudd.Mrs.Lumsden returned to Ottawa with her family yesterday, and Mr.Lumsden remained behind to direct the search for the bodies.A retired professional acrobat named Fortier, alias Daniels, recently robbed hotel-keeper Navillon, of Aylmer, of a large sum of money.Fortier was traced to Montreal, where he was awaiting trial on another charge.Detective Genest took the culprit back to Aylmer, where he has been tried and sentenced to two years in jail.June 22, 1885.See.A Manager, Commercial Chambers, Canadian

2 Cor.vi.; Heb.x.; 2 Peter ii.(127.) This is, of course, aimed at Charles Bradlaugh,, the Atheist member-elect of the House of Commons for Northampton.Bradlaugh has been elected by his constituency three times, and as often has been refused his seat in Parliament\" The first time he made his appearance before the Clerk of the House, he declined to take the member\u2019s oath, on the ground that he did not consider the oath binding on his conscience.He had no belief in a supreme being, and his mind was fully made up that an oath, as an oath, had no binding force.He was rejected, went back to his electors, and was re-elected by them to the seat.On the 11th of February, 1884, he decided to take the obligation, and we be* lieve, he did manage in a surreptitious way, to subscribe to the oath.An action was immediately begun against him under the parliamentary oaths act of 1868, Ho recover tho penalty of £500 for having sat and voted without the taking of tho oath.The case went against .Bradlaugh.His counsel then moved for a new trial on the merits of the case.Lords Justices Cotton and Lindley have just rendered another verdict against him.They hold in effect, that even if Bradlaugh took the oath as a formality, he could not, in the nature of things, take it as an oath.The Master of the Rolls regards it as clear to his mind, \u201cthat, whatever he may say or do, if his mind was in that state, by the law of England he has not taken an oath, and that is what the law requires.\u201d Mr.Bradlaugh is again thrust out by this decision.Pharmaceatlcal Association.The Council of the Pharmaceutical

St.Lawrence, having gone as far as the Straits of Belle Isle.Mr.Allan is president of a company which proposes to prosecute the fisheries on a very large scale.The gentlemen in question were enchanted with their trip and the observations they were enabled to make, and believe that the fisheries of the Gulf will produce a very gratifying result.It is their intention to commence operations next spring, with the seal fisheries.by Military College Examinations.At Kinvaton, the first, fourth and sixth places were seenrod by Montreal boys studying at Lincoln College, Sorel.When it is remembered that the competitors come from every Province of the Dominion, the Province of Quebec is to be congratulated on the extremely creditable positions taken by its boys.Sir.W.A.H.Kerr, first on the list, and a son of Mr.Kerr, Q.C., of Montreal, was over 1,000 marks ahead of the second candidate.Mr.G, H.Baker came fourth, Mr.B.McLellan was sixth, Mr.W.H.Rose fifteenth, and Mr.E.A.Whitehead came out

of the steamer \u2022 Quebec,\u201d which arrived herefrom Montreal yesterday morning, report a terrible accident on the river, which occurred shortly before midnight on Wednesday.The steamer was only a few miles below Sjrel, and near the westerly end of Lake St.Peter, when she ran into a small white open boat, cutting it com pletely through.The boat was only observed shortly before the accident, and tnc engine of the steamer were at once reversed, but too late to prevent a collision.Two human beings were fteen in the water running astern of the \u201cQuebec,\u2019\u2019immediately after the collision, and cries were heard from them, such as \u201cFor God\u2019s sake save us, hurry up Boats were at once lowered, but all search for the unfortunates proved unavailing, and both must have found a watery grave.Whether there were more than two occupants in the boat when struck, those on board the steamer are unable to say.Nothing has yet been aacer tained as to the identity of the deceased small bag was picked up, however, on the water, containing a pair of new boots, a black shawl, other articles of clothing and some fresh provisions.The passengers on board the \u201cQuebec\u201d are loud in their praises of Chief Steward Laoombe for the activity he displayed in attempting to rescue the drown ing men.Press Excursion As already announced, the departure of the members of the Associated Press of the Province cf Quebec will take place on the 21st August, at 7.45 a.ra., from Quebec.The excursionists will take the Intercolo niai half an hoar later at Levis.They will arrive that night at Dalhousie, where they will sleep.The following is the programme which will then be followed :\u2014 22nd, Saturday\u2014Leave Dalhousie steamer at 5 a.m.22nd, Saturday\u2014Towards 10p.m.arrive at Gaspe.23rd, Sunday\u2014Stay at Gaspe 24th, Monday\u2014Arrive at Dalhousie during the evening.25th, Tuesday\u2014Leave Dalhousie at 7.45 a.hi.25th,

places Paspebiac, where the famous Rubin bouse is established and the summer residence of ex Lieutenant-Governor Robitaille ; the coquet tish village of New Carlisle, audCarleton with its enchantiugsite.Mr.Julien Chabot, Manager of the St Lawrence Navigation Co., has kindly reduced the price of the passage on the steamer plying between tho Bay des Chaleurs ports to the trifiing sum ot $4 for both going aud return ing.In addition to this, the excursionists will have to pay 50 cents for their meals and for their beds.The whole trip will cost each member only some $12.Ladies, of oourse, may take part in the ex cursion if they wish on the same terms as the members of the press.Another Lynatn Case.Proceedings have to-day been instituted on behalf of a poor creature confined in Longue Pointe Asylum, which may prove to be as iuteresting and startling as the Lynam cause celebre.The unfortunate inmate who cow seeks to be released from confinement is woman named Mary Power, who, a namber nf years ago, came to this conntry from Yoogbafl, Ireland, bhe is well off, having in her own right property and bank stocks to the value of $30,000, which is administered by a curator residing in this city.Five years ago she was confined to Longue Pointe at the request of hsr sou and a\u2019curator appointed to the estate.Ae soon as her relatives in Ireland heard of her confinement one of her sisters was immediately despatched Canada, and upon visiting the unfortunate woman, although the sisters had not seen each other for over twenty years, the pre tended lunatic at once recognized her rela live, saying, \u201cOh, Helen, how thankful am you are come ; get me out ot here, I am not insane.\u201d The sister was not long in set ting about to free her.The services of Dr Lanctot were obtained, and a medical ex amination took place, when Dr.Lanotot opinion that the woman was not a fit person to be confined in the asylum was corroborated by Ôr.Perrault, the resident physician, who it will be remembered, gave such important and unprejudiced evidence in the Lynam case.It is understood that Dr.Howard, the visiting physician, is also of the same opinion to that any opposition to her release will be difficult.Toe petition for her release was presented to Mr.Justice Jetté yesterday and the writ was ordered to issue immediate ly, returnable on Friday.To-day service was made upon the Lady Superioress, Sister Tuerese, through Messrs.Downie and Lane tot, acting for the interdict and her sister.Thanks to the revelations in the Lynam case, which exposed the disgraceful delay before any unfortunate can be released should interested parties contest, the new act of last session simplifies the proceedings very materially,*and the attorneys for the peti tioner believe that before ten days hav elapsed, she will be free.Opposition is autl cipated on the part of the curator, Mr Benjamin Clement.\u2014Montreal Star of Wed nesday.of River Navigation In

Montreal, July 16\u2014A Star special from Regina says :\u2014Messrs.Lemieux, Grcenshieldj and Fitzpatrick, Riel\u2019s counsel, so far are anything but favorably impressed with Regina.They reached here at three o\u2019clock in the morning, during a drenching rainstorm.Proceeding to the rpj10 Palmer House under the guidance of their fellow traveller, Sheriff Chapleau, they, were chagrined to fine all the accommodation taken up.There was no alternative and arm-in-arm the quartette in the darkness traversed the mud-covered streets to the Court House, on the floor of which they found a bed till dawn.They have since secured quarters at the Palmer House.The eminent legal gentlemen have lost no time and at an early hour the three counsel visited Riel.The latter was almost overcome when they entered his presence, and in a voice choked with emotion he expressed his gratitude for the generosity and unforgetfulness of his friends in the East.He said it was pleasant to observe that each gentleman was of a representative nationality, and he declared he was no longer dubious of the result of the trial.On adjourning to another ap partment, the prisoner declined to walk in advance, explaining that he believed in showing deference to nhat he termed his superiors.He conversed at length on the subject connected with the trial and gave explanations which his counsel hope to turn to great advantage before Judge Richardson.Riel declared his firm belief that his conduct would be vindicated.He said he had been working for fifteen years in a just and humane cause and had got into his present position while endeavoring to gain the rights of the oppressed half breeds.On the subject of religion, he was greatly disposed to speak.He said that the Deity had exerted a special pro tection over him and he was confident that he was destined to occupy the greatest position in the Dominion.Riel also scouted at the idea of ever returning to the United States when he gained his liberty.Before the interview concluded he said that he did not want his trial conducted on a party basis, but desired judgment on his merits.The prisoner com plained that his health was anything but good, owing to the rigors of prison discipline.His counsel will probably plead a general denial of the charges supposed to be expressed in the indictment, arguing various grounds of defence, which will be announced later.The jury panel from which the jury in Riel\u2019s case will be selected consists of thirty-six, composed of thirty farmers, four merchants, one hotel-keeper and one contractor.Tho list is as follows :\u2014Joseph Sheppard,Thos.Gordon, Wm.D.Perley, Oliver Shane, Francis Cohstovo, Peel Doon, Thos.Hourd, B.Limoges, Hy.Painter, Walter Merrifield, John T.Fratiinifham, Geo.Anderson, Thos.Bull, A.E.Tregent, John McIntyre, John McCallum, D.Woodward, W.O.Brooks, Jas.Watson, James Strang, Ed.Evatt, Thos.Rogers, Michael Sullivan, Peter McCallum, Malcolm A.McLean, Wilton Passy, Adam Auld, Arthur Me Asher, Donald Gunn, William Boo-ley, E.G.Brooks, Owen Strickland, Robert O.Rigby, Henry T.Whittaker, Thos.Wright aud John B.Davis.No reprieve for Connors haa been received.The murderer will be hanged on Friday morning.(His counsel, Mr.Johnstone, in view of his strvuge conduct, has asked several local physicians to enquire into the prisoner\u2019s mental condition.A Jewish Rabbi who came from Winnipeg to give the last consolation met with poor success.As soon as the subject of the murder was broached the condemned acted like a madman and seized his shackles in a threatening manner.Connors protests his innocence ; his beloved has arrived to comfort his last hours.A private letter received hero from J.N.Greenshields, one of Kiel\u2019s counsel, today, states that the three counsel are convinced that in order to obtain an impartial trial a change of venu will be necessary.This will be applied for immediately.Ottawa, July 16\u2014The Governor-General\u2019s Foot Guards will entertain the Sharpshooters to a banquet on their return.A telegram from one of the Sharp-shooters, wjio reached Winnipeg last night, states that they expect to be home on Wednesday.A deputation of ladies headed by Mrs.Perley visited the Mayor\u2019s office today and asked to be allowed to take part in the welcome to the returning volunteers.They will present the corps with a silk tiag, enscribed \u201cOttawa Sharpshooters, from the ladies of Ottawa\u201d 1885, Cut Knife Creek, N.W.T.\u201d Toronto, Ont., 16\u2014Active preparations are being made for the reception of the troops.The public buildings along the route are being decorated, and private citizens are also decorating their buildings.A large platform is being erected in front of the City Hall for 600 school girls, who will welcome the troops with patriotic songs.The Mayor has received a letter from Captain Ludgate, of the Salvation Army, Hamilton, offering to send a contingent of the army to join in the welcome to the troops.He has also received a despatch from St.Catherines, that if 36 hours\u2019 notice be given 1,000 visitors would come from that city.Corporal Pouliot and Private Wilson, of the 65th Battalion, arrived here this afternoon from Owen Sound, in charge of the bodies of Privates Osgoode and Rogers, Ottawa Foot Guards, and Sergt.Yali-quette, 65th.They went through to-night to their destination.Winnipeg, Man., July 15\u2014Tho troops under General Middleton, the Queen\u2019s Own and Royal Grenadiers, of Toronto, the 65th Battalion of Montreal, the Midlands and the 90th and 92nd of Winnipeg, reached Selkirk at 10 a.m.to-day, and were met at the wharf by Mayor Col-cleugh, who presented .General Middleton with an address of welcome, to which he responded, paying a high eulogiura upon the troops under his command.Lieut.\u2022 Governor Aikens aud Mrs.Aikens, Mrs.Middleton, Misses Aikens, Hon.Messrs.Norquay and Brown, of the Manitoba Government, and other leading citizens of Winnipeg met the troops.A splendid collation was then served to the men under the trees on the river bank, the Selkirk ladies officiating.Selkirk citizens proved themselves generous and warmhearted hosts.A special train wilh Gen.Middleton aud his staff and others left for Winnipeg at 1.45 p.m., and arrived here at 2 p.m.The General was escorted to Government House by the Halifax Battalion headed by the bugle band of the Montreal Garrison Artillery and the 9th Battalion of Quebec.The troops embarked at 5.30 for Winnipeg, and will reach tho city at 7.30 p.m.The Midland and 65th Battalion have gone home from Selkirk, via Port Arthur.All the others came to Winnipeg.Tho York Rangers and Sim-coe Foresters Battalion and the Governor General\u2019s Body Guard under Colonel Denison reached the city by rail from the West just as General Middleton arrived from Selkirk.There are at least 15,000 people now on Main street awaiting the arrival of the troops, and the demonstration promises to be the most .enthusiastic ever held iu Winnipeg.The city is illuminated to-night.On the civic holiday to-u orrow there will be a review of all the troops by General Middleton at 10 a.m., a torchlight procession, civic and military, in the evening, with bonfires, fireworks and general rejoicing by the citizens.tif4 John Street Railway.( To the Editor of the Mominq Chronicle.) Mr.Editor,\u2014May I be permitted to enquire through your columns why the shareholders of the above Company have received no dividend since the Company's inception.There is at present in this Company and in other joint stock concerns and banks in Quebec, far too much unproductive capital for the good of the community.If no return is is to be had for our money, why should we not be refunded the amount ot our stock and the Company wound up.At present it is not the shareholders who profit by their stock.Yours truly, A Shareholder.Quebec, July 16th, 1885.[Note\u2014A representative of the

query was tho opening sentence of the Rev.George Batchelor\u2019s sermon on \u201cHow to Prevent Cholera,\" at the Unity Church.He followed the interrogatory with a few remarks relating to the antiquity of the inquiry aa an indication that much depended on the state of the health as well as the condition of the weather.The appearance of a cloud in the eastern horizon\u2014tho reported pestilence, he said, made it highly proper to propound the biblical question, the text of hia sermon\u2014\u201cand how art thou in health, brother ?\u201d He deprecated any attempt to alarm the people by exprès aions calculated to create the impression that the cholera was sure to visit this country the present season, but the ap pearauce of the pestilence in other lands made it proper to examine and make public the best means of preventing its attack.\u201cIf it does come,\u201d said he, \u201cit will attack the ill-fed, the intemperate, the disobedient, the people weakened by dissipation or fear.Other things being equal it will leave the strong, the obedient and the healthy.The first injunction is : Be not afraid.A cheerful man is protected against epidemics by the mere fact that he does not permit himself to fear an attack of the prevailing disease.I need not tell you to obey all the sanitary laws.Not only to make your houses and homes clean, but also 'make them cheerful.Cheerfulness is a health-giver.The man who strives for pleasure is not happy, while exhausting pleasures are more deleterious than wearying toil.Next to an obedience to the ordinances of the board of health I would recommend the closing of all business houses on Saturday afternoons, the spending of Saturdays in such a way that there will be no Sunday morning headaches, and the spending of Sundays so that there will be no Monday lassitude.Inordinate pleasure kills more people than cholera or any other epidemic.Another health-giver is a good conscience.The conscience, burdened with evil, anticipated or accomplished, is a disorganizing element to happiness and to health.\u201d In conclusion,, the preacher said that no community could hope to escape, or deserved to escape a pestilence that was not mindful of the suffering of the poor, as a single case made its spreading possible and therefore required consideration of all classes.The divine law as revealed to man iu his pleasures
