Among the public edlhces, one of the most
prominent is the French Cathedral, q stone
structure go by 40 feet. said TO be capable of
which there are two, both stone, reach height
of 30 feet, and from them a fine view may he
had of the city and harbor and m any surround-
ing villages. In one Of these towers is hung
THE GREAT RKLL,
the largest in America, weighing nearly so 900
pounds. II is only used for striking alarms of
fire. In the other tower there is q chime OF
smaller bells.
Bonsecour market, in which are also the mu-
nctpal Offices, Is a handsome stone structure
and unique institution; the lower stories OF
which are well adapted for a public market.
Among the other buildings of note in the city OF
Montreal may be mentioned the new court
house, post Office, McGill college. the English
cathedral, Place d'Armes, Hotel Dieu Hospital,
the Mount Royal Cemetery, the Gray Nunnery,
La Chine canal as the principal points visited
ey the tourist. The hotels, which are large and
comfortable. at this season especially, are ex-
tsnslvely patTonized by American tourists,
hundreds of when arrive and depart daily.
The stores and shops are handsome and seem TO
Pc wen stocked with good quality of wares.
We inferred tbst the Americans DO a very con-
siderable amount of shopping while in this city.
Tourists will find il TO their advantage in an
economical way to obtain gold for immediate
use while in Canada It is true that at hotels
and in the large stores u. 3. bank notes will be
taken at the regular discount, but without coin
hundred other little expenses. The cheap, vet
respectable,
MANNER OF DRESSING
adopted by the Canada people is to be admired.
The fabric of the clothing worn both by the
gentlemen and ladies does not, as q general
thing, cost one third Of that worn by our trades
men and business people in the STATES.
The population OF Montreal, though curious
mixture of French, English, Scotch, Irish and
American, is still largely fashioned after the
French element. 1t is curious to notice that
while the physicians are mostly OF English ORR
gin, the legal and clerical professions are evil
IDENTIFY mainly French. This fact NAV perhaps
be accounted for by the circumstances that the
English government has faithfully observed the
provisions Of the treaty by which Canada was
transferred to at, whereby their own law and
religion were guaranteed to the French settlers
OF the colony. 1t is we'll known that the laws
and ussees OF people are more permanent in
their character than are the physical sciences,
and that upon the condition of the latter rests
the efficiency Of the medical profession. The
advance Of the medical Nofession and the physi-
cal science in Canada, we are inclined 10 be-
leve, keeps pace with the other parts of the
world. Theology claims TO be perfect, law 10
be copser vative, and therefore little or no pro-
gress is made by either, while medicine is one
OF the progressive sciences. L.
