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)

if it is not white and fnrred, it is rcugh, at all events.The digestive system is wholly out of order and Diarrhea or Constipation may be a aymp tom or tbe two may alternate.There are often Hemorrhoids or even loss of blood.There may be giddiness and often headache and acidity or datuenee and tenderness in the pit oi tbe stomach.To correct all this if not effect a cure try Green's August Flower, it costs bat a trifle ana thousands attest its sfficaoy.UNITED riFAIEB.Washington, Feb 2\u2014The United State8 Consul at Stockholm baa informed the State Department tnat the Swediih Government his declared against the importation of pork from the United States nnleis it is well salted.This order is founded on a report' that the hog pestilence is raging in the L'nited States.Mr.Ksnna irtade a speech on the tariff tb:s afternoon, crit.cizing Senator Sherman's address on the Preaidmt\u2019e message.He claimed that the system of protection had earned more strikes, driven more men from employment, filled the country with more tramps, aggravated more distress, created more discontent and produced more starvation and death than ar.y other system the country ever saw.Mr.Sherman replied.Boston, Feb.2\u2014Tbe funeral of Prof.Asa Gray took place to-day in Appleton Chapel, Cambridge.San Francisco, February 2\u2014Toe steamer \u2018Belgic\u2019\u2019 arrived from Hong ^c*»g and Yokohama this morning with four cases of smallpox on beard and was placed in quarantine.Tais is tbe fourth successive steamer from China which has arrived with small pox ou hoard.The Chinese papers annonnee that the Chinese Government has resolved to pay back to the United States large sums of money, being tbe unclaimed balance of the W'yomiog indemnity, and hints that the United States might imitate their example by refunding to China the much larger balance of unclaimed indemnity paid to the United States thirty years ago.On December 28th fire destroyed twelve warehouses in Hong Kong, involving a loss of $200.000.The Q .teen of Corea is now enjoying good health, having recovered frôm her late serious indisp'sition under the treatmentof her American physicians.Fire at Foochow des*oyed over four hundred houses ;

that at the age of twenty-five she had married a po r Moecow tailor named Francois Villoing ; that this marriage was her first step towards liberty; that one day she left husband and child and prepared for the conquest of the world.Parts is the objective point of all who seek for adventure, but in this vast city she was O'Jd, hungry, exhausted one December night.Henri H.>z t\"Uud her, almost fn z n, in the Champs-Eiytées, opposite the \u201cWinter Gar-\u2022ten.\u2019' Although François Villoing still lived the friends of Henri Herz, not long after this adventure, received the anrouucement of his marriage with Mile.Pauline Lachmann.\u201cMadame\u201d Herz received and went much in society.Her great ambition was to be presented at court, but her beauty created so much j-alcusy that her past life was discussed.When she triumpnantly entered the Salle des Maréchaine an ai ie-de-camp approached nod eaid, \u201cMme.Villoing, you have mistaken the door.\u201d Immediately she turned to go, followed by the mortified Herz.lathe carriage she muttered, \u201cTne idiots !
