When Marquis Duguesne Went From ! Quebec to Montreal a Century and a Half Ago the Old City Turned Out En, Masse to Say ' Good-bye-- Huge Cavalcade Needed to Take Him and Nine Attaches. In some respects this age is sim- Pler than were the times of the past, in other respects life is much more complex than it was a generation or two ago. The latter is true of what may be called the industrial side of life in wireh there is such a mingling of varied interests and such a diver sity of services It is sonplér, in one respect at Jeast, in what may be called the ex-. ternals, in 'the stage setlings amidst which i is played, in the manner in which men go up and down the vary ous paths of 'occupation, discharge their duties and perform their work. There aré still formal and some- times elaborate ceremonies, but tos duy they are not the picture but only ihe frame The picture consists in the doing the thing for which the office or it really exists. A Prime Minister goes about his work like an ordinary private man of affairs, and even a governor-general moves here and there throughout the country over which he rules with the least possible display in keeping with his high office, and often with as much simplicity as would be shown by any citizen of independent means in his travels either for pleasure or business Perhaps this in part is due to the degnooratre spirit of the age, perhaps in part 10 the pace at which we live and the little time there is available 1 mare nt is contrasted with monditions of the past, and thanks to the journals of a French military man, who lived in Canada a little more than a century and a half ago, & comparison can be made of the way in which things are done to-day with the way of ithe old regime when Can- ada was but a soar on the wildernese of the St. Lawrence valley and her entire spopulation was scarcely equal to that of a present day city of the second class, In 1751, when quesne came oul as clouds were lowering over Canada and New England, and only four years later they broke m that storm of war destined to make such great changes on the. map of North America. The comming storm was at that time foreseen and preparation was made to meet it. Aanong the military men whom at about thisitime France sent out 10 her American-colonies was Col Franquet, ; Chief Engineer of Fortifi- cations. He was: first employed the Marquis Du- governor, the at Louis- bourg, Bredon, where he plan- ned and directed' the construction of these fortifications which eight years later the British army under Am- heorat and Wolle baitered down after a long and trying siege. His work at Lounisbonvg finished, he crossed over to Isle 8t. Jean, now Prince Edward Island. Then he came on to Quebec and what he sawrthere and in other parts of Canada he set down with considerable litemary merit and which throw sidelights upon an interesting chapter in Canadian history. Thanks to the Annuaire de !'Institute Cana- dian for the year 1889, the memoirs of Col. Franquet have been made ac- cessible to the student of history, and | in his charming sketches Sir James | Lemoine of Spencer Grange has given to his English readers a number of Franquet's most inkeresting chapters, One tolls. of a mid-winter journey formed - by Marquis Duquesne and party from #Quebec to Montreal, and {from it ones.can learn how the gover- nor of Carmda traveled one hundred and. fifty-three years ago. "Each year," wrides Franguet, "it is eustomary, ngy necessary, that the general in the "colony should go to Montreal in Jenuary, retoming Quebec in the {following August." He then gives a summary of the business to be transacted at Mont: real, selecting officers th command at the King's posts in the upper coun- try, providing the posts with soldiers, arms and stores, to issue permits to traders, to receive the delegates fromn the Indian tribes and so forth. In 1753 Duguesne fixed January 14th as the day for his departure from Quebse, and with him were (0. go nine officers as a military staff. The setting out of the vice-regal expedition for Montreal was a great event in the Ancient Capital, parti- cipated in by" the elite of Quebec so- ciaty aml withessed by the greater part of the city's population. In the official company assembled to see the governor off was the notori- ous but them powerful Intendant Bigot who, to use the popular term of today, was the great grafter 'of that administration. Bigot was to aecompany the governor as far as Pointa-anx-Trem twenty ndfles shove Quebec, and with him he was taking a y oi ladies and gentle men. All were to. be Bigot's guests at dianer that day and at brembfast the fellowing morning. . At ten o'clock in the forenoon of the day appointed for the departure of the governor a gay cawaicade of single sheighs and tandems assembled before the Chateau St. Lomis.. where the great marquis held his little court, Franguet relates that it was a bitterly cold morning, with howling 4 wind and driving snow. So strong and boisterous was the gule that its pear: abmost. drowned the salvo of guns fised. from the fort as the gov- ernof. and: party drove through St Louis Gate. The procession of sleighs filled with the high dignitaries of the colony aod the leaders of Quebee's gay society, followeft the Ste.

The viee-regal party drew up at the door of the Con- vent of the Nuns of the Congregation, founded there in 1713, and then in charge of two sisters.

At every village in which the governor lodged on his journey to Montreal this would be re- | peated so that a winter visit from the | great murquis was not an unalioyed pleasure to the local militia in the rural parishes.
