Titre :
Quebec morning chronicle
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)

And prattling streamlets swirled along, thro\u2019 heather, moss and fen, And danced, ami glanced, and pranced within the heart of Morag\u2019s (Hen.The sky was clear, no cloudlet swam across the lovely blue, It seemed as if fair Eden once again had peeped in view.And in the woods, the leafy woods, till latest afternoon.The warblers piped their sweetest lay*, that charming day in dune.The world was fair as sleeping babe, or moss rose passing sweet.The very grass looked beautiful, with daisies at my feet ; And as I wandered through the woods that dreamy summer\u2019s day, I felt my pulse leap high with joy, because my soul was gay.I knew the old spot passing well, each nook, and glen, ana stream.That used to glad my youthful eyes in boyhood\u2019s golden dream.\t( The same old burn went singing on its journey to the sea, And oh ! what tender memories its song awoke in me.The old whiobnah was still in bloom ; the hawthorn seemed as fair ; The waving ferns and heather bells were still in beauty there ; And on the tree the blackbird sang his notes, so sweet and wild ; While by the brook wee robin hopped, - just like a guileless child.The face of nature was unchanged, and yet my heart could tell There was a something that I missed from scenes I loved so well\u2014 The friends of youth, my schoolmates all, ah, where, ah, where are they Î Gone, like a dream ;

can assure our readers that we have now in Quebec one of the best equipped sporting goods establish-meats in the Dominion, the store recently opened on Fabrique street by the V.& B-Sporting Goods Co.Every item in the sporting line has been looked after, and all of the very best quality has been secured.The store is a vast assortment of every line and variety of sporting goods and as the large plate glass windows have now been placed in position, the store is indeed one of the finest in town.We hope the promoters of the scheme, Messrs.Van Felson & Brunean, will now meet with the great success that they undoubtedly deserve.CYCLING.The tickets for the raffle for the ladies\u2019 bicycle which has been presented by the Warwick Cycle Co.for the most popular lady in Quebec, are now getting printed and will be ready to-day.The ballot box will therefore be shortly opened, and it is to he hoped that the voting will commence very brisk and lively.Already several names are being brought up as likely candidates and whoever does get the wheel, will have one of the finest ladies' wheels in the Dominion.Q.A.A.A.TOMBOLA.Many of the prizes for the Tombola are now on exhibition at

o\u2019clock on the Q.A.A.A.grounds, CRICKET.It is to be hoped that there w ill he a good attendance at the meeting to night at the Club house to form a good cricket club for the coming season.THE DERBY.On May 29 next the English Derby will be run on Epsom Downs, the most historic race and the most historic race track in all lands and climes.It will be the 116th race for the stake, the first one being run in 1780.In tlo;e days it attracted no attention what evet.In fact, when the first Derby was run as an extra inducement to the public to come and witness it, the programme included a cock fight between the gentlemen of Middle sex and Surrey and the gentlemen of Wilt shire.Neither was there any red tape about the conditions of the race in those days.The conditions of the first Derby were as follows ; \u201cDerby Stakes of 50 guineas each, half forfeit ; for three year olds ; colts 8 stone and fillies 7 stone 11 pounds ; one mile \" It is interesting to note that the handt-cappers of American horses to day rate the colt three pounds above the filly, just as Edward XII-.Earl of Derby^ founder of the race, and his contemporaries did more than a hundred years ago.There are prettier courses in this country than the famous one of Epsom Downs, but none possessing the historic associations of the old track, One of its pecularities is it» great grand «land, towering high like the spire of some huge cathedral.The grand stand is not as sightly cr as comfortable or luxurious as similar affairs on the modern tracks here.It was built solely for the accommodation of tens of thousands of people, and no attention w'as paid to architectural beauty.Some idea of the dimensions of the structure can be gained from the fact that when order» were given to repaint it & few weeks ago, more than one hundred tons of white paint were ordered for the purpose.Last year the English people stood to a man on the success of \u201cLadas,\u201d and the victory of the colt was the most popular in the long history of the stake.This year there is no strong favorite.\u201cRaconteur\u201d is a weak favorite at 4 to 1.\u201cSir Visto\u201d and \u201cSpeedwell\u201d divide second choice honors ut 13 to 2.\u201cLevar\u201d and \u201cLavene\u201d are at 10 to 2 and \u201cSolar\u201d is the outsider at 20 to 1 There will be other stakes than the Derby at Epsom* that the Croker-Dwyer hprses can fry for, and al?3 Ascot and Newcastle where new mettiugs are held.M.B.C.TRIP TO QUEBEC.The Montreal Bicycle Club will likely have ajiig turn out for the 24th, the excursion to Quebec.So far the Hon.Secretary, Mr David J.Watson, lias received many enqui ries.The wheelers who have not visited the Ancient Capital before will bave a chance to visit historical spots, the run out to the Montmorency Falls being one of the finest, an>l there are several nice runs besides this one, especially to Lurette village (Indian), and other outlying towns.All members are requested, who intend to go, to send their cames iu at once.\u2014Star.ANOTHER TRAMP.A Montreal paper says :\u2014\u201cWilliam Thaller, an Austrian, started this afternoon on a walk around the world from St.James street west.The pedestrian\u2019s baggage consists of two revolvers, a knife and a book in which the prominent citizens of the places he visits will inscribe their names.He expects that hU j mrney will occupy about «even years.Thaller intends that his journey will bo » pilgrimage and will visit all the shrines in theVorld.He will stop over at Lachioe to night.Thaller start» on his long journej without a cent and will be obliged to depend upon the charity of the people whom he meets fur his sustenance.\u201d THE TURF.London, May 14\u2014This was the opening THE E.ECENT COLD SNAP.EXTKXSIVE DAMAGE /A' ONTARIO Over A Million Dollars Loss.Au- Recorder\u2019s Cocrt, Yesterday.\u2014A young man, for assaulting a coustable on Sunday while in the execution of bis duty, was fined $10 and costs.The constable had entered Lower Town bar on the hunt for Sunday liquor sellers.The bar-keeper, who led the assault on tbe policejnan, did not appear and a warrant was issued for him.A young man from Ottawa was picked up drunk, but owing to mitigating circumstances he was let off.Several carters aud traders for pot paying numbers were dealt with.Dead Body Found-Toe body of an un known man was found lately near the wharf at River Ouefle.Deceased was 5 feet inches high, aged about 20 years, weighed some 120 pounds, had an old fracture of the left leg and a recent one of the right leg and serious contusions of the head.The cloth-iog had entirely disappeared There was no thing to show the jury whether daath was due to a crime or to an accident, and so the body was interred in the locality set apart fur the burial of unbaptized children.Dfad Body Identified \u2014The body of the unknown man found near Bickell\u2019s Bridge, as reported in Monday\u2019s Chronicle, turns out to be that of a man named Isaie Maasicotte who has lived for three months at St Raymond, and left there about three weeks ago.He was a tailor by trade and his father resides at New Bedford, Mass.He was identified by Mr.Morriasette, of St.Ray iqond, and by Mr.H.ijorin, conductor on the Quebec & LUke St.John Railway, who said that he came from Bourg Louis the 23rd April last.Deceased was aged 37 years The bodv was found hy Mr.J.Hochu and Mr.Fratîcois Baribault.Dr.Marois made the poit mortem but found no marks of violence about the body.The verdict was death from asphyxia by submersion.Ha Qqx, His Baggage.The late Sir James l.acaita was quoted by Archbishop Thomson as the model of self possession, and the instance by which the archbishop illustrated this was highly amusing.He and Sir James were seated iu the same carriage, leaving King\u2019s Cross for the north, when as the train slowly steamed out of the station th« portmanteau belonging to the latter was observed left fiehind on the platform.Without a moment'* dtiny its owner put his head out of the window and shouted \u201cMurder *.\u2019* at the top of his voice, at the same time gesticulating violently with his arms.The officials managed to ^et the traiu stopped au4 came harrying up to tno assistance of the supposed victim, only to be met with the blandest of smiles and politest of requests to kindly put that porU«i4Pteau in tbe traiu.At first they were inclined to be a bit nasty at being thus \u201cdone, \u2019 but, seeing the portly form of the archbishop\u2014the supposed mur Jeter\u2014convulsed whlt.fjiprri-ment, they gave way to peals of inextinguishable laughter.- London Til-BiO.This Is A Common Experieoce, (ra/l Mall Gazette.)

will he uffccied.Montebello, Que., May 14\u2014The frost hue last uight damaged small fruit, but the grain is not enough advanced to have been seriously injured.Avon more, Ont., May 14-There was a slight frost lasd night, but nothing appears to have been damaged to any serious extent.Renfrew, Out., May 14\u2014The frost has not damaged the crops hereabouts to any great extent.Fruit has escaped fairly well, not being enough advanced to suffer permanently, although the plum crop will be affected to some extent.Hawkesbi'KY, Out., May 14-Light front here.No damage done worth mentioning Almonte, Ont., May 14 \u2014The frost has not hurt the crops in this locality, not being sufficiently advanced, hut grapes and fruits are very badly damaged.Thermometer was 23 degrees.Cari.ktoN Place, Otat., May 14\u2014There has been slight frost the last two nights, hut it does not seem to have done much injury in this locality.Toronto, Out.May 14\u2014From all parts of Ontario come the reports of great damaae done by the recent cold snap.In some parts the frost was so severe that ice formed on standing water to the thickness of half an iuch.Farmers and market gardeners who were in the city to day said that besides fruits and vegetables being destroyed, tbe pea crops in many places are badly nipped.Other grains have escaped.The weather that has followed the big drop in the temperature is most favorable.The cold rain removes the chill, but had a hot sun followed crops that now look healthy would have turned black.Niagara Falls, Ont., May 14\u2014Snow fell to the depth of four inches this morning, followed during the afternoon with drizzling rain.The grape crop in this locality has been almost totally destroyed, which means thousands of dollars loss.Strawberry patches louk as if they had been swept by fire.Cherries suffered severely, also the peach trees Corn, potatoes and other vegetables are flat on the giound.The season being fully three weeks ahead of last year, the frost Sunday night means hard times for the fruit growers and farmers in the Niagara district.St.Catharines, May 14\u2014Monday turned out bright and fair after the damaging frost of Sunday night, in the
