KING’s COUNTY FORTY YEARS AGO.

The following geographical sketch of | Kivg’s County, published in 1861, by the Rev. George Sutherland, pastor of the Free Caureb, Charlotietown, and member of the Board of Educatio:, may prove in- teresting and instractive to the teachers and school children of the province,

This county occupies the east end of the Island ; and its East Point is the nearest part of P. E. Island to Cape Breton. In form itis triangular—having the county line that separates it from Queeo’s County as its base, and its northern and eastero fronts washed by the waters of the Gulf. Its easiern side, forming the whole east end of the Island, is 48 wmiles in lergth from Kast Poin to the eou'hero extremity of the county line, tne

north side from the same poiet to the norihern extremity of the county line 1s 43 miles; the base or county line is 34 miles I: contsins 22 Townships or

i lows, viz, Nos. 38, 39, 40,41, 42,43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56,59, 6t, (3,64 und 66. Lot 64 contains 22,000

j acres, but Lot 66 only 6,009 acres. George-

':own and Royalty contain 4,000 acres

) [ts area is 643 square miies, or about 412- 000 acres.

Its eastern coast is much indented by bays, harbors and rivers ; its northera is generally unbroken, the on'y two jarge arms of the sea being St. Peter’s Bay and Savage Harbor. The land ie undulating, hills of greater or less elevation being found in the vicinity ofall the rivers. Toe country is everywhere we}! waiered by rivers, streams and brooks, Theshore, at the southern angle of the county, is re- markably high and precipitous,whence the plave bas received the name of the High Bank. At a short distance from this bank the water is deeper than on any other coast of the island at the same distance from the shore.

The two chief capes are Cape Bear, on the south side of Murray Harbor, so call-~ ed from from being a resort of beare, and East Point, so called from being the ex- treme east end of the [s'and. Hast Point 18 in lat. 46 deg. 27 min. north; loug, 62 deg, west. The inferior heads or poinis are op the east coast, Terras Point, te- weeu Murray Harbor end Cardigan B y, St. Andrew’s Point, on the north entrance of the same harbor, Bruce, Spry, Howe, Eglington, Rollo, Colwill, Swaatoo, Cheps- tow, Dean and Hervey pointe, and Basin Head. Qn the north shore, Beaton, Sur veyor’s, Campbell’s, Sylvester, Long, Shipwreck, Short and Beaver’s points and Cable Head.

Ybe Murray Islands,—Several small islands in Murray Harbor, Panmure Ie- land, about two miles in length and one in breadth, on the south side of Cardigan Bay, and Boughton Island, about two miles ic length and a balf mile in breadth, On the north side of the same bay, are the chief islands.

Bays.—Cardigan Bay,or Three Rivert-- a large and safe bay, the only one really such on the east coast, and easy of access to the shipping when pressed by {stress of weather. Bt. Mary's Bay and Sturgeon Bay, smaller portions of the same bay on the south and west of Panmure Island, sod Launching Bay tormed from the same on the north side by Boughton Island ; Boughton Bay at the mouth of Grand River, Have Bay, Fortune Bay, Rollo Bay, Colville Bay; and on'the north side, Sv, Peter's Bay. This fire sheet of water, although receiving several rivers, is com- paratively useless for shipping on account of thesand bar across its entrance, ia which there is only, at the lowest tides,

It ie fitted by nature, aud by its vicinity to the Strait of Canso, tobe a great commercial port, Grand River and Souris, although not properly harbors, are important shipping places. Litue Harbor to the north of Souris is of novalue; and Savage Harbor is «6 mere bay, wholly unfitted for trade by reasou of ite shallow watere ae 2 Luxes, poode and §coves.—There are

The most important rivers in the county arethe Montague, the Morell and srand River, The upper streams of the firet are in Queen’s County; its estuary is well adapted for trade. The Morell ig wholly within the county. Its main branch issues from Piequid lake. It flows into St. Peter’s Bay. Grand River is properly a large inland extension of Boughton Bay. Its tead waters are picturesque end attrac- tive. It has plenty of water, but the entrance is narrowed by sandbers on both sides of the channel. Murray River,called after an early settler of that name, is a narrowed extension of Muriay Harbor. It has creeks and inlets of the same nature on either side. Brudenell, Cardigan, Fortune and Souris partake of the same character. Midgell, Marie, Sturgern and Brown’s Creek are on a smaller scale, though similar ia formation; and are pro perly brooks. Such a variety of waters, inner and outer,within so limited « epace, ig a peculiarity of the Island, and con- tributes much to its development, trade and attractive aspect.

The only town is Georgetown, the capi- talof the county pleasantly situated on the south front of a point of land‘between the eastauries of the Cardigan and Brude- nellrivers. It is well laid out with broad etreets crossing each other at right angles, and with an extensive Square and Common. Its progress is st: ady but slow- enterprise and capital might in a few years elevate it into aa imporaut city. The harbor is excelleat and frequently re- mains open till the middle of January. Distance from Char.ouetown, 30 miles Population, including the Royalty, 331.

There are two villagea, Sourie and Montague. Souris is situated on the north side of Souris harbor or Colville Bay. The trade is consiverable, as it ia the chief place of export andentry for the whole surrounding region. The cuief oo- cupation is fishing. Distance from Char- lottetown fifty miles, Montague is a ris- ing village srouod the bridge on the Montague river, uear the head cf tie tide. It is a fevorit place for the export of pro- duce ofall kinds. It is eazily accessibl- by the vessels usually engaged in the trade. The situation is attractive,

Setlements.—The first eetilers natur- ally located themselves along the coasts, vn the banks of the most accessibie harbor or bay. In this way,at a very early period, the saores from St. Peter’s Bay, ise Coast trom For.une river to Grand river, aod the shcres of Cardigao Bay or Taree Rivers (its early name) were settled. Rollo Bay, named after the commander of (be British force sent to take possession of the Island in 1753, was early oceupied by the French or Acadians,whose descen- daots ure now found in the aistrict,

The most iwpertant settlements are; — St. Pever’e>—An ald peopl: are inteliigent and Muaoy tarms weil cultivated. The ionad; tants are generaliv comfortable. Ship building sud fishing partially , followed. Salmon fishing in the bay, very valu bie, Dirgweii’s, {Douglasees, Cotfin’s, ec among theearly British settiers.

Murray Harbor.—Thia ia also aa old settlement. Onthe north side, the peo- ple are chiefly of Scotch descent; on the south side, there is a coas:derabie inter- mixture, among wnom are the descendants of \mmigrants trom the English Channel Ivlands, chiefly known a3 “Guernsey peo- ple.” Toe inhabitants are industrious and thriving. At one period a great trade in lumber was carried on. The settlemen: was begun in 1788.

New Perth.—-This place was more rea cently occupied: but has made great and rapid improvement. The people hare devoied themselves exclusively to farming, andthe result of undivided attention is success; industry, thrift, aud comfort are, manifest everywhere.

Poor, unacquainted with the clearing of the forest, and many of them past the prime of life, their difficulties at first were great. They have begun to curmouut these; snd every year ls accelerating their prosperity, Dundas.—Thiv receat seitiement, bear ing the name of our respected (Governor, occupies a fertile and beautifci tract of countryjsround the bead waters ot Graad River.

“USE OF O AND OH.

%} Many pupils even in the higher grades, have no idea that there ix a difference be- tween these two toterjeciions, O is used with anoun in direct sddrees; as, “Arise, O My countrymen, and resent this treach« ery!” The exclamation point follows the whole expression. O is an_ interjection used in the expression of joy, paio, ete., and the exclan:ation point follows it, as “Oh! I bave made a sad mistake.” But if the whole expression is enclamatory then the mark comes at the end; as, “Oh, |} how beautifu! this sunset is !”

IN UNION 18 STRENGTH.

Tbe teachers of Brooklyn have fur nished one more proof of the truth of the proverb. The city government, acting on the advice of the city attorney, deciined to pay the rate of wagesto which the teach- ers believed themselves by Jaw entitled. The amount thus withheld aggregated two hundred thousand dollars. Acting | in concert, eizh'een hundred teachers in- stituted separate ~uits. The city, acting as defendant, wa~ liable to inocalenable court expenses; and the city attorney |
