He referred to the Isle of Or- to the luxuriant there, If Chambly was romantic in 1588, what must it he to-day, with thrée hundred and seventy-nine years of a nation's rise and dominanee huddl- ing on its back? says Margaret Bell in the Toronto Globe. What stories it could tell of tem- pestnous times when the French flag flew over Canada, and all France suffered under the sway of Catharine of Navarre? Stories of the meeting of Cartier with the Iroquois and the And of a later day, when Cham- plain, with his new allies, the Algon- quins, was obliged to carry his boat above the rapids of Chambly Basin before proceeding to the lake swhich Tem- pestuous times indeed! But the waters of Chambly Basin laved the shores just the same as they do to- day. Only there were no private piers built from private gardens {fragrant with rose and lilac bushes. Rather were there darts whizzing) about and arrowheads of flint. To- day the motorist, blase in prosperity, is obliged to stop and ask: What means the crumbling stone fort which stands up from the Basin some twenty odd miles from Montreal? The Tri-color and the Union Jack fly side by side, and the fort gives evi- dence of the days when the same two flags were not so friendly. Evidence of warfare and strife, of blood and tortuous times. For the ston#s which once made the fort worthy of the name are beginning to fall away and leave great gaps. Fort Chambly was built round about 1665, when La Salle undertook to explore the Ohio and Illinois rivers. any things happened during the two years he was away on his trip of ex- ploration. Many things=avhich caus- ed him to explain on his return that "that was the unhappiest spot in Canada." Chambly, from its very situation, was bound to play a trump or two in the making "of history. From the, time when paintea bands of savpeps "stole along the Riche- liew, aagiithe French, bent on_con- quest, received the same savage tribes for allies; from the days when Burgoyne led his valiant g English troops against the citizefis of New England -- from those turbulent times until to-day, when tourigts jin- vade the luxuriant valley of Cham- bly, the quiet-looking village has been adding round after round to complete the cycle of history. Chambly was only one of a line of forts built from Sorel to Lake Champlain for points of defence. They were called the key to Canada from the New England side, for the route of the. New Englanders was from the Hudsomto Lake George by way of Portage. From George to Lake Champlain, from there to the Richelieu, and on to Sorel. Although these forts had no part in the actual war---actual fighting might he more exast--still it was through them that the fighting could take place. They were the troop despatchers, the larders of supplies for the troops, the general lookouts across the great field of battle. At the time of ' Vaudreuil, the great blunderer; Bigot, the chief of the corrupt, and Montcalm, the gep- {tleman and soldier, Chambly writhed at the war raging all around. When the great Montcalm and the great Wolfe, conquered and conqueror, gave up their lives after seven min- utes' actual warfare, Chambly, the hallowed spot which now' stands pensive and tranquil, had bad its ghare in the horror of defeat. Then it was that it came under the sway of a\new power. > . On June 1st, 1777, the head of that new power in Canada persqnally paid a visit to the troops stationed there. Sir Guy Carleton's name still remains on a bit of parchment in the old fort.. A new power usually in- troduces reforms. Four years after that June Chambly was rebuilt and made stronger. An eminent engineer and soldier came over with ten thousand Hessian troops. These brave Hessi- ans knew they might never return to their homes, for they were sailing into a revolution. They never did return. And they ald not die vie. torious. Their brave leader, Rie- desel, was obliged to surrender at the battle of Saratoga. More warfare. - New leaders. Lord Durham inspected the fort, found new recuits and added more sup- plies. The Americans were wily, and bethought themselves how they could gain greater knowledge of Canadian locations. They invited the French to join them against the English. But the French, always loyal, treated the invitation as an insult. of the French people. The war of 1812 needs no comment. But Eng- lish and French were ready to fight together against the fog which had crept in from the south. Crept in by the waterway route, of which Chambly was one of the forts, The Papineau rebellion of 1837, the year the beloved Victoria came to the throne, and the Fenian raids, twenty-one years later, caused activ- ity in the fort.

He further recalls haw the strong- est df race religions préjudices had to be overcome by the farmers of the Canadian confederation and which were overcome only by a con- vention: similarly in the case of South Africa and also Australia.
