 Entered according to Act of the Parliament of Canada, in the year 1885, by Nicholas 
 Surrey Garland, in the Department of Agriculture. 
 
 
PREFACE. 
 
 HE first edition of The Parliamentary Directory and Statistioal 
 Guide is presented to public favor in full confidence that its publication 
 will meet a want not heretofore so well supplied. 
 
 The book will be found to embrace several new and useful features- 
 interesting, it is believed, not only to members of both Houses of Parliament 
 but to ofBcials and others desiring a work of reliable reference. 
 
 The plan of the book is somewhat similar to that of the Congressional 
 Dirkctory, the secf^nd edition of which has appeared, but the scope of the 
 Parliamentary Directory will be found more comprehensive than that of 
 its American prototype. 
 
 The letter-press was partly executed last season, but was not completed 
 owing to the difficulty of collecting some information for its pages. Hence 
 an '* Addenda," which brings the corrected information up to date ; and by 
 this means, for the first issue, the purpose intended has been reached. 
 
 The Parliamentary Directory will be published each Session, after the 
 organization of the Committees of both Houses, its pages being revised each 
 season, and its scope enlarged by taking in matters of Provincial Legislative 
 interest, as well as that of a Dominion character — in which interest, especially > 
 the work has been issued. 
 
 The names of Senators and Commoners have been alphabetically 
 arranged, and further to meet the requirements of social lite, a system has 
 been adopted whereby it can be easily ascertained if a wife, daughter or other 
 ladies accompany legislators to the city — the city address being given. 
 
 Suggestions for future guidance will be gladly received by the editor, 
 whose address will be found on the title page. Meantime a generous 
 consideration of the difficulties attending the compilation of such a work, 
 taking in, as it does, matters untouched by previous authors, is respectfully 
 asked by 
 
 THE EDITOR.

 A REVIEW 
 
 Of the progress of the PARLIAMENTARY and DEPART- 
 MENTAL BUILDINGS of the Dominion of Canada, 
 from their inception to their completion, with contract 
 price, &c., for each ; also, a general description of the 
 Buildings when finished— area of Grounds, ftc, &c. 
 
 On the 34th March, 1857, Resolutions were passed by the House 
 of Assembly towards fixing a place as the permanent Seat of Government 
 as follows : " That the sum of Two hundred and twenty-five thousand 
 pounds be appropriated for the purpose of providing for the necessary 
 Buildings, and that an Address be presented to her Majesty praying 
 Her to select some one place as the Permanent Seat of Government 
 in Canada." 
 
 A despatch from the Colonial Secretary, dated 31st December, 
 1857, conveying Her Majesty's selection of Ottawa as the Seat of 
 Government, was communicated to both branches of the Legislature on 
 the 1 6th March, 1858. 
 
 The place having been thus chosen, the site was immediately fixed 
 upon, and a notice issued by the Department of Public Works, dated 
 17th May, 1859, inviting architects to prepare and submit designs for 
 Parliament and Departmental Buildings, such designs to be received at 
 the Department not later than the ist day of August next following; 
 also stating that the structures "are proposed to be built in a plain, 
 substantial style of architecture, of coarse hammer-dressed masonry, 
 &c., and that the necessary information' relative to sites, size, number of 
 rooms, &c., necessary for the preparation of plans, could be obtained 
 at the office of the Department. Sixteen designs were submitted for 
 Parliament and seven for Departmental Buildings, by fourteen and seven 
 competitors respectively. The first premium for Parliament Buildings 
 was awarded to Messrs. Fuller & Jones, and for the Departmental 
 Buildings to Messrs. Stent & Laver. 
 
 These gentlemen were instructed by the Department to make 
 
•• Parliamentary Directory. 
 
 certain alterations in their plans, with a view to their better adaptation to 
 the purposes conteriiplated, such changes to be made and specifications 
 prepared by the 15 th October following. 
 
 Later, public notice was given that the tenders for the construction 
 of the Buildings would be received until 15th November, when it was 
 found that twenty-one were received for the Parliament and twenty-nine 
 for the Departmental Buildings. 
 
 The tender of Thomas McGreevv (now Hon.) was accepted for the 
 construction of the Parliament Buildings, for the bulk sum of $348,500, 
 the contract being entered into with him on 7th December, 1859, for 
 the completion of the work by ist day of July, 1862. About the same 
 date the contract for the construction of the Departmental Buildings 
 was awarded to Messrs. Jones, Haycock & Clarkf, for a bulk sum of 
 $378,810, and the time fixed for their completion was the ist February, 
 1862. 
 
 The architects whose designs received first premium were appointed 
 by the Government to superintend the execution of the work of the 
 respective Buildings, and were paid a commission of about five per cent, 
 upon the contract sum. As no adequate provision had been made for 
 heating and ventilation ip the accepted plans, a notice, dated 14th 
 November, 1859, was issued calling upon competent parties to tender 
 for this service on or before the 30th December, and to submit in detail 
 the system which they proposed to adopt, with a guarantee of its effi- 
 ciency, &C., for a period of at least ten years after completion. 
 
 In compliance with the latter notice, nine tenders were received, 
 and after due consideration, on the 28th January, i860, the work was 
 awardedto Charles Garth, at a bulk sum of $61,285. This was under- 
 stood to include the whole of the furnishing and fitting up of apparatus 
 necessary for all the Buildings, except alterations that might afterwards be 
 ipade as to the mode of heating- the wings of the Parliament Buildings. 
 
 The building contractors commenced operations on the 20th 
 December, and were principally occupied during the winter of that year, 
 1859-60, in the excavations for foundations, preparing materials and 
 making other arrangements for the carrying on of the works during the 
 ensuing summer. The masonry was cor:r'.ienced on the Parliament 
 Building on the 26th April, i860, and \\\ June the foundation of the 
 iliiiMn Central Tower was laid. On the Eastern Departmental Buildipg

 operations were begun on the 2nd April, and the works were from th^t 
 time proceeded with generally. 
 
 On Saturday, the ist September, i860. His Royal Highness the 
 Prince of Wales laid the Corner-:.tone of the pier immediately under 
 the north-east angle pillar of the Legislative Council Chamber, and the 
 early part of December building operations were generally stopped for 
 the winter. The works were now fully under way, and it became neces- 
 sary to obtain more ample information in regard to the expenditure on 
 and management of the works than was in the possession of the Depart- 
 ment. With this object in view the Chief Engineer was ordered to be 
 sent to Ottawa to report fully on all matters connected with the general 
 character, superintendence, and progress of the works, &c., from the 
 commencement up to that period. A report in detail was submitted by 
 that officer on the 20th April, i86r, recommending certain changes, by 
 which the works could be resumed under a different system of manage- 
 ment and supervision. 
 
 During the latter part of the season of 186 1 the appropriation hav- 
 ing become exhausted, work was suspended by order of the Hon. the 
 Commissioner. 
 
 On the 2ist September, 1861, the Hon. H. H. Killaly was instruct- 
 ed to proceed to Ottawa, and ascertain the best arrangements which 
 could be made for protecting the Buildings during the ensuing winter, 
 and to report upon their condition generally and the best mode of set- 
 tlement v.'ith the Contractors for work performed, &c. 
 
 He submitted his report, which contained the amoui;its in his opinion 
 that should be paid to the contractors for the various items of work per- 
 formed; and later, sent estimates of the work done in October and Nov- 
 ember, 1861 ; and still later, another Report containing a summary of 
 his previous estnnates, also an estimate of the probable cost of complet- 
 ing the Buildings. 
 
 In 1862 the sum of $188,344.30 was appropriated under the head of 
 unprovided items for the previous year — and a further sum of $500,000 
 was granted by the Legislature towards the construction of the Buildings. 
 
 The Contractors urging a settlement for the works they had per- 
 formed, and alleging certain claims for their suspension, a Commission 
 was appointed under the Great Seal of the Province, on the 21st June, 
 1862, to enquire into matters connected with the construction of the 
 
Parliamentary Directory.

 Buildings, and management of the works, so far as they had been pro- 
 ceeded with, and to advise the Government as to the best method of 
 carrymg them on in future, and to supply an estimate of the probable 
 cost of their completion. At this time there had been paid to Thomas 
 McGreevy, for work performed, the sum of $483,163.95 and to Messrs, 
 Jones, Haycock & Co. the sum of $511,391.54. On the 29th January, 
 1863, the report of the Commission was submitted, and amongst other 
 things recommended that the work remaining to be done should be 
 offered to the original contractors at a schedule of prices fixed by them 
 (the Commissioners). , . 
 
 The Government acceded to this proposition and it was also agreed 
 to by the Contractors, and on the i8th April, 1863, contracts were en. 
 tered into with Thomas McGreevy, for the completion of the Parliament 
 Buildings and with Messrs. Jones, Haycock & Clarke, for the completion 
 of the Departmental Buildings at a schedule of prices to be applied to 
 the different classes and items of work. Under this arrangement the 
 alleged claims arising out of first contracts were held in abeyance. 
 
 On a revision of the specifications it was deemed advisable that 
 instead of paying the architects a commission as heretofore they should 
 be paid fixed salaries, and Mr. Thomas Fuller and Mr. Chas. Baillargd, 
 were appointed Joint Architects for all the Buildings, and in accordance 
 with the provisions of the new contract a general Superintendent was 
 also appointed. To settle the claims arising out of the first contract and 
 for claims by the Architects for matters arising out of their supervision 
 for which they preferred claims, the Government appointed an arbitrator, 
 the claimants another, and these two selected a third, and after due de- 
 liberation awarded as follows : to Messrs. Jones, Haycock & Clarke, first 
 contract on Departmental Buildings, on the 8th May, 1886, the sum of 
 $88,176 and for costs $2,203 > ^" ^^^ cases of the Architects, Messrs. 
 Fuller and Jones, $5,064 and $181 costs ; and to Messrs. Stent & Laver, 
 $6,931 and $200 costs. 
 
 Considerable progress was made with the works during the season 
 of 1863, and during the Session a further sum of $100,000 was granted 
 towards construction. 
 
 May, 1864, it was deemed advisable that the Chief Engineer should 
 assume control of the works at Ottawa, in order that questions arising 
 there could be settled without the delay of referring to the Department

 at Quebec. The method of furnishing supplies of gas, water, &c, 
 was decided, and the necessary work commenced During the season 
 Of this year the building operations were vigorously pushed forward, and 
 a further sum placed in the Estimates of $400,000 towards their com- 
 pletion. In May, 1865, ^^^ services of Mr. Baillarg^ were dispensed 
 with, and in the same month and year, it was decided that the Public 
 Departments be removed to Ottawa the Fall ensuing, and the contractors 
 were notified to make extra exertions to put the buildings in order for 
 their reception by that :l.ne. The clearing and grading of the grounds 
 was undertaken and proceeded with, also the laying out and making of 
 roads to the different buildings pushed forward. In the month of 
 October the buildings were reported far enough advanced to permit of 
 their occupation by the several Departments to which they had been 
 allotted. The roads were partially made, and about this time the removal 
 of the Government took place. The wings and central portion of the 
 Parliament Buildings were also sufficiently forwarded t6 admit of a 
 number of the offices being occupied, and of the books of the library 
 being placed in the building. This year the Legislature granted a 
 further sum of $300,000 towards the completion of the works. In May, 
 1866, the claims of Thos. McGreevy were referred to the Chief Engineer 
 ■as arbitrator, who awarded him, on the 12th November, on account of 
 first contract the sum ^f $61,785. The two Chambers and other neces- 
 sary rooms were so far completed as to admit of a session being opened^ 
 which took place (the first in Ottawa) on the 8th of June, 1866, a day 
 long to be remembered, and of which the people of Ottawa and sur- 
 rounding country may feel justly proud, being in so short a time trans- 
 formed, as it were, from a remote backwoods town to a city, the chosen 
 Capitol for the several Provinces, since consolidated, and now forming 
 the Dominion of Canada, with the advantages of periodical visits 
 from the country's legislators, and still more, that the selection of the 
 site on which to erect the Government Buildings of Canada was made 
 In their midst, and that it was the choice of no less a {Personage than 
 Her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen. During the. session a further 
 grant of $500,000 was made toward the building fund. In Novem- 
 ber, 1866, Thomas McGreevy, by permission given him, trans- 
 ferred his contract for the Public Buildings to Robert H. McGreevy. 
 By the Fall of this year the Departmental Buildings were comf> 
 pleted, and in March, 1867, a settlement in full was made with 
 
1 
 
 6 Parliamentary Directory, 
 
 the contractors for all work performed under and connected with the 
 hew or second contract, and which, in the aggregate, amounted to the 
 sum of $436,199.72. 
 
 In February, 1867, authority was granted to make certain altera- 
 tions in the Legislative Assembly Chamber for the accommodation of the 
 increased number of members forming the House of Commons under 
 the Confederation of the Provinces. In the spring of 1867, the Depart- 
 mental Buildings being completed, and the Parliament Buildings well 
 advanced, the staff was considerably reduced, and in May of that year 
 the services of Mr. Thos. Fuller, architect, were dispensed with. 
 
 
 Now that we have pursued the rise and progress of these noble structures, 
 it will seem in ordertogive ageneral description of their outline, situation 
 and surroundings. They were constructed from 1859 to 1865, and 
 consist of three detatched structures situated on the south side of the 
 Ottawa River, on what was formerly and familiarly known as "Barrack 
 Hill." The site on which these buildings stand rises about 159 feet 
 above summer level of the river and commands a view of the entire 
 :ui 'insr country. Buildings are erected on the northern, eastern 
 
 "i v.t, '; w side?, of the hill, leaving a rectangular plot in the centre 
 1^. .i o« n So feet from north to south, and 700 feet from east to west, 
 alcri^ it!) '^gton street The Parliament House in which, as before 
 mentioned, the Legislature assembled for the first time on the 8th June, 
 1866, stands on the north side of the quadrangle upon which it presents 
 a front of 472 feet in length, and two storeys in height, above the base- 
 ment ; its breadth being 370 feet at the centre, and 181 feet across the 
 main eastern and western entrances. The Eastern Block has two 
 principal facades at right angles to each other : one 319 feet in length 
 qpon the square, and the other 245 along Wellington street. The West- 
 ern Block is somewhat similar in shape to the Eastern, being a frontage 
 of 220 feet on the square, and 277 feet along Wellington street Fur- 
 ther accomodation being required, contracts were entered into at the 
 
A Review. % 
 
 dates following : for the " extension " of this block, which was com- 
 pleted and occupied in January, 1877, viz: basement walls on nth 
 May, 1875 ; the super-structure on 29th November, 1876. The new 
 building which is 245 feet in length by 60 feet in width, faces the Union 
 Suspension Bridge, which spans the Ottawa River immediately below 
 the Chaudibre Falls. The building covers an area of 17,900 square 
 feet, furnishing 58 additional offices in the three upper floors, besides 
 to rooms in the basement. The main tower, which is 274 feet in height 
 from ground to top of finial, is situated about the centre of the western 
 front, and contains the principal entrance and vestibule. Cost of 
 " extension " $462,247. 1 1. 
 
 At the time of Confederation the foundation walls of the Parlia. 
 mentary Library building had been carried up to the plinth course and 
 the exterior works partly executed. By Order-in-Council dated 29th 
 February, 1868, the Government directed that the construction of the 
 Library should not be proceeded with. The works were consequently 
 suspended, and were not resumed until the i8th November, 1870, when 
 a contract was entered into for the completion of the walls ; the material 
 for the roofing (iron) arrived from England about the same date, and 
 the building was completed and occupied in 1877. I* is circular inside, 
 and ninety feet in diameter. The main wall is about four feet thick 
 and its exterior face forms a polygon of sixteen sides, at each angle of 
 which is a flying buttress spanning the roof of the lean-to and joining the

 The continued increase in the business of the country, and conse 
 quently the enlargement of the Deparmental Staff has been seriously felt 
 for some time past, the Departmental Building being overcrowded ; and 
 as they cannot be further enlarged without seriously detracting from 
 their symmetry it was decided to acquire a suitable site outside the 
 Parliament Grounds and there erect a new Departmental Building. For 
 this pupose the sum of $84,000 was voted at the session of 1883, and 
 the Northern hall of the block bounded by Wellington, Metcalfe, Elgin 
 and Sparks Streets, which fronts on Wellington Street, was purchased 
 by the Government. The work of demolishing the buildings thereon 
 has been accomplished, and the excavating is being proceeded with. 
 
 Expenditure during the year $70,419.95. A description of dimen*

 graduated at Michigan University ; was Superintendent of Schools for County 
 of Kent from April 1856 to April 1865 ; was employed by Ontario Government 
 to define the North- Western boundary of the Province 1872 ; author of a pam- 
 phlet on The Present and Future Political Aspects of Canada (1869) ; and 
 another on The Blunders of the Dominion Government in Connection with the 
 North- tVest Territory (1871); elected a member of the Council of Public In- 
 struction for Ontario (representing the School Inspectors) August, 1875 ; an 
 unsuccessful candidate for a seat in the Council of Public Instruction, Ontario, 
 1874; first returned to Parliament for present seat at general election, 1867; 
 re-elected at general election 1872; at general election 1874; again at general 
 election 1678, and again at last general election, as decided by Supreme Court 
 of Canada; sworn of the Privy Council and appointed Minister of Interior 
 October, 1876, which position he held until resignation of Government, Octo- 
 ber 1878; favors the amendment of the Constitution so as to provide for the 
 election of the Senate ; for the appointment of Provincial Judges by the Pro- 
 vincial Executives, and the complete separation of Provincial and Federal 
 jurisprudence ; was opposed to acfmission of British Columbia into the Union, 
 as premature, and the terms of Union as preposterous. He was of opinion 
 that, with more than two thousand miles of unsettled territory between the 
 Upper Ottawa and British Columbia, we were not in a position to undertake 
 the responsibility of governing the country upon the Pacific coast. He held 
 that railway construction, if needed in British Columbia, was a work to be 
 undertaken by Imperial rather than by Canadian authority. He was opposed 
 to pledging Canadn to the construction of a continuous line of railway to the' 
 Pacific, as wholly beyond the resources of this country. Favors the Govern- 
 ment of Canada bv the Canadian Parliament, and not by despatches from the 
 Colonial Office. Holds that power to legislate upon the subjects of navigation 
 and shipping carries with it power to establish Courts to adjudicate upon 
 matters arising under such legislation, in acccTdance with the well settled rules 
 of the maritime laws; favors a national policy, based not upon principles of 
 commercial exclusion but upon principles of commeraial extension ; thinks 
 Canada has outgrown the condition of an ordinary colony ; she has commer- 
 cial relations with foreign States, in which she alone is interested, and which 
 she alone ought to regulate and control on her own behalf ; is opposed to the 
 people's representatives abdicating their functions, either by failing to maintain 
 effective control over the expenditure of the national resources or by surren- 
 dering to the Crown and Privy Council an important part of their legislative 
 functions; does not regard an enormous public debt as a national blessing; 
 and believes that the prosperity of the countrv is to be promoted by habits of 
 economy among the people, by encouraging a feeling of self-reliance and per- 
 sonal independence, and by fostering a spirit of patriotism— not flunkeyism — ' 
 by which the interest, the prosperity and the honor of Canada are made the 
 paramount duty of their representatives, and not upon gigantic and costly 
 works built in wild and uninnabitable regions ; considers the present state a9 
 one of transition, and regards the Confederation of the Empire, for certain 
 specified purposes, as the most satisfactory solution of our political future*

 ranchise should be widened, and that efficiency instead of influence should be 
 the passport to the public service ; thinks political progress essential to political 
 vitality, and advocates the fullest freedom of discussion on all topics affecting 
 the public interests : supports the adoption of a system of proportional repre> 
 sentation, whereby, among other improvements, the strength of the various 
 opinions held by the people may be more nearly represented in Parliament; 
 considers that, as the franchise is not merely a right, but a trust, the wilful 
 neglect to vote should be followed by temporary disfranchisement; is opposed 
 to the appointment of Senators for life by the Administration, and desires their 
 selection for a term of years by the Provinces; thinks that the future of Can- 
 ada depends very largely on the development of the great North-West ; ad- 
 vocates the construction, as rapidly as the resources of the country will 
 Kermit, of the sections of the Pacific Railway necessary for communication 
 etween that country and our interior sea-board, in conjunction with an 
 extensive scheme of exploration and colonization ; believes that the cultivation 
 of a national spirit is requisite to the success of the Union ; that the present 
 form of connection between England and Canada does not possess the element 
 of permanence ; that, as the child grows into the man, so the State will come 
 to maturity, and that (notwithstanding the enormous difficulties which sur- 
 round the scheme) there is a possibility and hope of reorganizing the empire 
 on a Federal basis, so as to reconcile British connection with British freedom."

 MacKenzie") taking the office of Minister of Public Works, which he held until 
 Le resigned, with tne other members of the Ministry, Oct., 1878; proceeded to 
 the Mother Country in June, 1875, and while there was presented with the 
 Freedom of Irvine, Dundee and Perth, and visited Her Majesty at Windsor 
 Castle ; during a visit to Scotland, 1881, for the benefit of his health was pre- 
 sented with the Freedom of Inverness ; sat for Lambton in Canadian Assembly 
 from 1861 until the Union ; returned to Commons at general election, 186f, 
 and at general election, 1872 ; again at general election, 1874 ; re-elected by

 general election 1882, but was induced to stand for present seat to which he was 
 elected ; represented West Middlesex in Local House from general election 
 1871 until Oct. 1872. when he resigned. Several important measures owe their 
 existence to Mr. MacKenzie as a private member, viz : the Act amending the 
 Assessment Act of (J. C, (1863); that consolidating and amending the Acts 
 relating to the Assessment of Property, U.C. (1866) ; and the highly useful 
 measure for providing means of egress ^from Public Buildirgs, (1866). As 
 Chairman of Committee on Municipal and Assessment Laws (1866), wrote and 
 framed the greater part of the General Act on Municipal corporations, etc. All 
 the measures of his Government, including the enactment of a stringent elec* 
 tion law, with the trial of election petitions by judges, and vote by ballot; the 
 abolition of the real e&tate qualification of members ; the inspection of produce 
 and weights and measures; the better administration of penitentiaries; the 
 enactment of the Marine Telegraph Law, which virtually abolished the 
 monopoly of the Cable Company ; the ostablishment of a Dominion Military 
 College, and the improvement of the militia system ; the enlargement of the 
 canals; the permanent organization of the Civil Service; the establishment of 
 a Supreme C5ourt for the Dominion ; the reduction of postage to and from the 
 U.S. ; the free delivery of postal matter in cities and towns ; the opening of 
 direct mail communication with the West Indies; the construction of a trans- 
 continental telegraph line; the better administration of Government Railways; 
 an improved copyright law ; the adoption of a final route for the Pacific Rail- 
 way ; the opening of negotiations, conducted on our behalf by our own delegate 
 in person, between Canada and the U.S., for the establishment of an equitable 
 Reciprocity Treaty between the two countries; a new insolvent law; and the 
 establishment of a Territorial Government for the great North-West, have all 
 bean more or less moulded and directed by him. In addition, two very 
 important questions which for some time agitated the public mind and 
 threatened tne gravest complications — the Manitoba amnesty and the New 
 Brunswick school questions — were satisfactorily adjusted during Mr. MacKen- 
 zie's administration. A Liberal ; and has always held those political principles 
 — which by some in England may be considered peculiar — of the universal 
 brotherhood of man; no matter in what rank of life he may have taken his 
 origin. Hasbel-jved-and now believes, in the extinction of all class legislation, 
 an»Tof all legislation that tends to promote any body of men, or class of men, 
 for the mere fact of their belonging to a body or class, to a higher position 
 politically than any other clans in the country. In our great colonies, while 
 no fauit is found with the political organization of the Motiiar Country, or of 
 any other country, we take our stand simply and completely on the ground 
 that every man is equal in the eye of the law, and has the same opportunity, 
 by exercising Uie talents with which God has blessed him, of rising in the 
 world, in confidence of his fellow citizens— one man quite as much as 
 anoth'^r. Believes thoroughly in party government, and that it is utterly 
 impossible to c/*riduct the government of a new country without it. While 
 an earnet:^ advocate and upholder of the present connection with the Mother 
 Country, h? will always endeavor to maintain Canadian rights and to bring

 1852 he was appointed Stipendiary Magistrate for the Lower River and Gulf of 
 St. Lawrence, and in that capacity he organized the service tor the protection

 from 1852 until the Union, when he resigned, and in that position he first had 
 under him the armed steamer Doris, and afterwards the armed schooner La 
 Canadienne, built specially for the service, in which latter vessel he was 
 wrecked in November 1861, during a violent snow storm on the North Coast; 
 in 1869 he established on all the coasts and in the rivers of the Province of 
 Quebec the system of licenses for the salmon fishing. In 1862, Mr. Fortin 
 began a work on the marine animals, fishes, mollusca, Crustacea of the Lower 
 River and Gulf ofSt.Lartrence; he described over eighty species of them, and 
 his descriptions, made from nature in nearly all cases, were printed in some 
 of his annual reports to the Government — see report of 1862, and following. 
 Mr. Fortin in several of his reports described the fishing coasts of the Province 
 of Quebec, I,20& miles in extent, and the difierent fisheries that are carried on 
 in these parts ; he has given valuable statistics, especially since the year 1862, 
 when he appointed a formula which is still followed. In 1858, Mr. Fortin was 
 instructed bj' the Government of Canada to visit officially the French Colonies 
 of St. Pierre, Miquelon and Longlake, with a view to study the conditions 
 under which the French fisheries and fish trade were carried on, both around 
 St. Pierre and on the west, north-west and north coasts of Newfoundland, 
 commonly called the French Coasts. Mr. Fortin was cordially received by 
 the Governor and authorities of St. Pierre, and every facility offered him to 
 fulfil his mission, while the schooner yacht La Canadienne. Quebec built, 
 was much admired by the shipbuilders and others there. Mr. Fortin reported 
 to the Government of Canada on his mission and gave interesting accounts of 
 the French Fisheries of St. Pierre and neighbouring coasts. In 1868, Mr. 
 Fortin, in order to make himself better acquainted in everything appertaining 
 to navigation, shipping, shipbuilding and the fisheries, visited the Maritime 
 Exhibition at Havre, France, which, as everyone knows', was a very successful 
 one ; he brought back with him u great deal of information regarding the 
 fisheries and navigation, which formed the subject of much correspondence

 1873 until 7th September 1874, when he resigned; elected Speaker, 4tn

 the world ; also enlarged the exchanges between the Quebec library and

 assignees. Sittings at Toronto, first Monday in January and July in each 
 year. Clerk of Commissioners — W. B. Heward. 
 
 Courts for the Trial of Controverted Elections. 
 
 The nature of these courts is sufficiently indicated in their title. In respect 
 to elections for the House of Commons of Canada, the Superior Courts, by one 
 of their Judges appointed in that behalf, are invested with special Jurisdiction 
 for the trial of contested elections, and appeals lie to the Supreme Court at 
 Ottawa. In respect to elections tor the Local Legislature of Ontario, the 
 Judges of the Court of Appeal and of the Superior Courts of Law and Equity 
 meet annually in Michaelmas Term and severally select, by a majority of 
 votes, a Judge of their respective Courts, to be placed on the rota for the trial 
 of election petitions. In the case of death or the illness of a Judge so chosen, 
 the Court of which he is a .member meet and elect another Judge. Trials 
 involving corrupt practices are presided over by two Judges, otherwise a single 
 Judge presides, and an appeal lies to the court'of Appeafof the Province. 
 
 County Courts. 
 
 Presided over by a resident Judge in each County, assisted in some 
 counties by a Deputy or Junior Judge. Their Jurisdiction extends to all 
 personal actions wnere the debt or damages claimed do not exceed $200; and 
 to all suits relating to debt, covenant or contract, where the amount is 
 ascertained by the acts of the parties or signature of the defendant, to $400; 
 and to all bail bonds and recognizances of bail given in the County Court, 
 to any amount ; but not to cases involving the title to lands, validity of wills, 
 or actions for libel, slander, crim. con., or seduction. An appeal lies to the 
 Court of Appeal of Ontario. 
 
 County Court Sittings and Court of General Sessions. 
 
 The County Judge in each county holds a sitting of his Court and a Court 
 of General Sessions in his county semi-annually, on the second Tuesday in 
 June and December, except in the County of York, in which county said 
 Court is held four times, commencins on the first Tuesday in December and 
 March, and the t<econd Tuesday in May and September, the latter Courts for

 the trial of cases of felony and misdemeanor, but treason and capital felonies 
 are exempted from their jurisdiction. The Jud^e may also, in his discretion, 
 hold additional sittings at such times is may be deemed expedient to expedite 
 business, but only fbr the trial of issues of fact without a jury. 
 
 County Judges' Criminal Court. 
 
 Persons committed to jail fbr trial, on charge of being guilty of any offence 
 for which they may be tried at a Court, of General Sessions may, with their 
 own consent, and subject to the provisions of the Act in that behalf, be 
 forthwith tried by the Jud^e of the County Court and General Sessions 
 without a jury, and if convicted, be sentenced by the said Judge; and the 
 Judge sitting on any such trial, for all the purposes thereof, is constituted a 
 Court of Record, and the record in any such case shall be filed among the 
 records of the Court of General Sessions last mentioned. 
 
 Courts of Revision. 
 
 The County Judges hold annually Courts of final revision of the Assess- 
 ment Rolls of each Municipality, being in the li^ht of Courts of Appeal from 
 the first Court of Revision held by the Municipality; and also Courts for the 
 Revision of the Voters' Lists, being equivalent to the Courts held by Revising 
 Barristers in England. 
 
 Insolvent Debtors' Courts. 
 
 These Courts, which had reference to traders only, were regulated by the 
 Act known as the "Insolvent Act of 1876," which consolidated and assimilated 
 the practice in Bankruptcy and Insolveiicy in the several Provinces in the 
 Dominion. The County Judges in the several counties presided, and official 
 assignees were nominated by the Governor in Council, and were officers of the 
 Court having jurisdiction in the County or District for which they were 
 appointed. And appeals lay to the Court of Appeal of Ontario. This Statute 
 has now been repealed, and the Courts and Assignee are only continuing ta 
 wind up pending cases. 
 
 Surrogate Courts. 
 
 The jurisdiction of these Courts relates to all testamentary matters and 
 causes, and to ihe granting and revoking of probate of wills, and letters of 
 administration of Uie effects of deceased persons having estate or effect in 
 Ontario, and all matters arising out of or connected with the grant or revoca- 
 tion of probate or administration, subject to an appeal to the Chancery 
 Division. The County Judges are also Judges of the Surrogate Courts.

 tion extends to actions of debt or contract where the balance claimed is over 
 $100 and under $200, when the amount is ascertained by the signature of the 
 defendant, subject to an appeal to the Court of Appeal, and to $100 in other

 if he objects to it. Each Judicial District la divided into Court Divisions, and

 The Dominion of Canada consists of the Provinces of Ontario, Quebec,

 The first four provinces were united under the provisions of an Act of the 
 Imperial Parliament passed in March 18(57, and known a"* " The British 
 North America Act 1867," which came into operation on the 1st <''jly, 1867, 
 by Royal Proclamation, The Act provides that the Constitulijn' of the 
 Dominion shall be similar in principle to that of the United Kinjidom ; that 
 the executive authority shall be vested in ihe Sovereign of (Jreat Britain and 
 Ireland, and carried on in her name by a Governor General and Privy 
 Council ; and that the legislative power shall be exercised by a Parliament of 
 two Houses called the Senate and the House of Comnjons. Provision is also 
 made in the Act tor the admission of Newfoundland — still a self-governing 
 Crown colony — into the Dominion of Canada. October 1876, by an Act ;^8 
 Vic, cap. 49, the North West Territories, excepting t^ie portion already 
 comprising the Province of Manitoba, were formed into a separate and distinct 
 government. They (the Territories) are governed by a Liputenant-Governor 
 assisted by a council of five members, and subject to instructions given by 
 Order-in-C'ouncil at Ottawa and forwarded through the Minister of the Interior 
 or the Secretary of Slate for Canada. Representatives may be returned from 
 time to time to council or a«8embly according as districts containing an area of 
 1,000 square miles attain a population of not less than 1,000 inhabitants of 
 ;?dult age exclusive of aliens or unenfranchised Indians. 
 
 The members of the Senate of the Parliament of the Dominion are

 THE CITY OF OTTAWA, 
 
 ' Capital ot the Dominion of Canada, is picturesquely situated on the soutiv 
 fhore of the nver of the same name, or familiarly* known as the "Grand 
 Kiver," in the County ofCarleton, Province of Ontario, about 87 miles from 
 its confluence with the St. Lawrence River and at the point of junction of the 
 Gatineau and Rideau Rivers and Rideau Canal with tne Ottawa River. The- 
 celebrated Chaudiere Falls are situated at the west end ot the city, and are 
 spanned by a handsome suspension bridf^e erected by the Government at a 
 cost of nearly $67,000, which unites the Provinces of Ontario and Quebec. 
 At the north-east of the city the Rideau River falls into the Ottawa, forming 
 two beautiful cataracts, over 40 feet in height. The city is distant about 120 
 miles from Montreal, the^ame from Kingston, 280 miles from Toronto and 75- 
 from the Town of Brockville. The city is easy of access from all points. The 
 following are the railroads running into the cit^ : Canadian Pacific — theCanada 
 Atlantic, connecting with Grand Trunk going eas'. — the St. Lawrence and 
 Ottawa, connecting with the Grand Trunk going west — atid that known as the 
 Ontario and Queliec Railway, running to Toronto— and the North Shore, run- 
 ning to Montreal and Quebec, the two latter now links of the C. P. R.; as well 
 as a line of steamers plying between Ottawa and Kingston, on the Rideau 
 Canal, passing through the magnificent scenery of the Rideau Lakes, which 
 rival, if not excel in grandeur, their perhaps more extensive sisters the 
 Thousand Islands of the St. Lawrence. This line connects during navigation 
 with the steamers on the LakesOntario, Huron, ftcand the Ottawa River Navi- 
 eation Co.'s Line of Steamers to Montreal where,along the river banks a grand 
 display of natural scenery is visible to the excursionist. The River Ottawa 
 takes its rise near the 49th parallel of north latitude, and descends some 
 rugged stretches over a course of about 400 miles. This river drains an area of 
 57,800 square miles, and its banks are so hizh that it gives to the land adjacent 
 
 ' an admirable system of natural drainage — hence Ottawa's boast of being one 
 of the most healthy and pleanantly situated cities in the Dominion. 
 
 The Town of Bytown, out of which Ottawa has developed, was founded 
 by Col. By, R. E , in the .ear 1827, the same year in which the Rideau Canal 
 was undertaken to be built, this work being performed by the Imperial Gov- 
 ernment for military convenience, as a means ol communication betweerv 
 Quebec and Lake Ontario. Ottawa is proud of its being selected by Her 
 Majesty the Queen as the Seat of Government for Canada, although it had a- 
 strong rivalry in the older and larger cities of Toronto, Montreal, Quebec, and 
 even Kingston at that time. The city can fairly be proud of the natural beauty 
 of her surrounding scenery. Certain views along the Gatineau River and in 
 the valley are admitted to oe, by all who have had the pleasure of beholding: 
 them, unsurpassed for natural grandeur in America, and require the pen of 
 an artist to describe them. 
 
 The Act incorporating Ottawa as a city, waf> passed in 1854 ; it then com- 
 
 fTised ten thousand inhabitants. The Act came into operation 1st Jan., 1855. 
 ts annual assessment, at present 's about $12,000,000, and it has a population 
 of about 30,000. A few of the leading industries, public buildings, ac, may 
 be here enumerated and seem in order. The lumbering interests are on an 
 extensive scale, and the amount of money invested in the prosecution pf this 
 enterprise alone, is marvellous. The iron mines, in close proximity to the 
 city, IS another source of wealth, also the phosphate mines in the sairie i^fgion^ 
 The mercantile trade of the City is well represented (wholesale and retail) in 
 all its branches; and manufacturing, although it has not reaeheel the-

 extent it should have, where so many rare privileges offer, ie gradually grow- 
 ing and may, perhaps, in the near future, so develop, as to assume ponderous 
 proportions.

 Circumstances havin;; prevented the issue of this work at the time 
 originally intended, and a review ot' the Parliamentary and Departmental 
 B,ujldingB having been printed which included up to 30th June, I«83, it will 
 be further necessary to give a brief account of the advancenient since made, 
 and expenditure incurred to 30th June, 1884. The Kditor concluded in hie 
 previous description with a statement of a vote passed for a sum of $84,000 
 towards purchasing a site whereon to erect the required additional buildings. 
 During the session of 1883 a sum of $207,000 was also voted by Parliament 
 for the purpose of erecting a suitable building thereon. As described in the 
 closing portion of the review, the site fronts on the south side of Wellington 
 Street, and extends about half way through to Sparks Street. Is bounded on the 
 east and west by Elgin and Metcalfe Streets respectively. The total cost of 
 the site was $88,136.84, a little over the first estimate. On the 20th Septem- 
 ber, 1883, a contract was entered into with Mr. A. Charlebois of Quebec, for 
 the erection of the new building, for the sum of $295,000, and work has 
 been progressing so favoraltly that the foundations werecompleted and covered 
 over for the Winter before the termination of the building season. The 
 contractor is further aking atlvantage of the cheap labor season, and has 
 erected sheds, &c., where he is preparing the heavy stone that requires much 
 time and labor in dressing, thereby facilitating the speedy accomplishment of 
 his contract. The building is intended to be faced with sandstone, backed 
 with brick, on a solid stone foundation. The floors and ceilings to be con- 
 structed with wroHght iron girders and rolled iron jOists with brick arches 
 between and concrete on top; the entrance halls and corridors to be laid in 
 encaustic tiles set in cement; the roofs are tc be constructed of wrought 
 iron covered with slate. "Se Wellington Street elevation is 280 feet long; 
 the Elgin Street, 110; ll't Metcelfe Street, 99 feet. There will be sub- 
 basement, basement, ground, first, second and attic floors The Wellington 
 Street elevation will include basement, three stories and attic, and will be 
 broken by a central projection and two angle pavillions, projecting 12 f-jet. 
 The general height of this elevation, from level of sidewalk to deck of roof, 
 will be 96 feet, the central projection being however carried up to 112 feet, 
 and the angle projections 104 feet above level of sidewalk. In a future 
 edition, when the building is completed, it will be Im order to give a more 
 detailed description of its interior and general appearance. 
 
 Total expenditure on the building, $115,604.17. Since previous reference 
 to the public buildings, further improvements have been made, viz : 
 
 The north-western entrance to the apartments of the Speaker of the 
 House of Commons was altered and a stone porch erected over the landing of 
 the outside steps. A further extenson of the ventilating system of the House 
 of Commons lias been made, and the result it is said, has proved satis- 
 factory. The incandescent electric lighting of the Parliament nuiidings has 
 also been effected, and for that purpose two installations were constructed for 
 the lighting of the vestibule and corridors of the Senate and Commons, the 
 Speaker's apartments, the basement, corridors, the restaurant, the official 
 reporter's room and the press room. The lighting o' the Commons side was 
 done by the United States Electric Lighting Company of New York, and the 
 main vestibule and the lighting on the Senate side, by the Edison Electric 
 Lighting Company of Hamilton, Ontario.
