Morning chronicle and commercial and shipping gazette
Sous un titre qui a varié (Morning Chronicle, Quebec Morning Chronicle, Quebec Chronicle), un journal de langue anglaise publié à Québec qui met notamment l'accent sur l'actualité commerciale et maritime. [...]
Fondé en 1847 par Robert Middleton et Charles Saint-Michel, ce journal est d'abord connu sous le nom de Morning Chronicle. Son programme éditorial est tourné vers les intérêts britanniques, ce qui plaît aux conservateurs et aux impérialistes. Toutefois, cela n'en fait pas une publication politique pour autant puisque l'on y évite les longs éditoriaux et les sujets polémiques, probablement pour se différencier du Quebec Gazette, ancien employeur de Middleton et féroce concurrent. Le contenu est plutôt centré sur l'actualité (majoritairement en provenance d'autres journaux anglais et américains), sur la vie commerciale et maritime, ainsi que sur la littérature (peu présente pendant les premières années). La ligne éditoriale du journal est définie comme suit : « [.] in the management of The Morning Chronicle we shall, therefore, begin by simply declaring, that, as we glory in our connexion with the British Empire, it will be our undeviating aim and unremitting endeavour, to create and foster a cordial attachment to those time-honoured institutions which have made her so illustrious in the annals of the world ». (May 18, 1847, p. 2)

[Traduction]
« [...] la direction de The Morning Chronicle, par conséquent, débute en déclarant simplement que, comme nous sommes très fiers de notre relation avec l'Empire Britannique, notre but sera sans détour de créer et d'entretenir un attachement aux honorables institutions britanniques, qui se sont grandement illustrées à travers l'histoire mondiale ». Sous Charles Saint-Michel (1849-1860), le journal devient le porte-parole des aspirations de la bourgeoisie commerciale anglaise et les sujets politiques prennent une part plus importante. L'esprit protectionniste, rattaché au torysme, teinte la rédaction. Durant la période de la Confédération, le Morning est utilisé comme tribune pour faire la promotion des idées de John A. Macdonald. Toutefois, l'attrait premier du journal reste avant tout la vie relative au commerce. En 1874, une fusion avec The Quebec Gazette met fin à une concurrence jugée ruineuse. Fondé en juin 1764, c'est l'un des plus vieux journaux d'Amérique du Nord. Une nouvelle entente survient en 1924. Pour mettre fin à une concurrence qui les affaiblit, le journal alors connu sous le nom de Quebec Chronicle and Quebec Gazette et le Quebec Daily Telegraph (fondé en 1875 par James Carrel, il défend les idées populaires et est reconnu comme étant libéral) s'associent et deviennent le Chronicle Telegraph. Les nouvelles prennent une place prépondérante dans les colonnes de la « nouvelle » publication. À partir de 1934, le journal est connu sous le nom The Quebec Chronicle-Telegraph. Il paraît toujours aujourd'hui. Voici les différents titres que le Quebec Chronicle-Telegraph a connus depuis ses débuts : Disponibles en ligne : The Morning Chronicle (Jan. 1847 - Nov. 1850) The Morning Chronicle and Commercial and Shipping, 1850-1888 The Morning Chronicle (Feb. 1888 - May 1888) The Quebec Morning Chronicle, 1888-1898 The Quebec Chronicle, 1898-1924 Non disponible en ligne : The Chronicle Telegraph (1925-1934) The Québec Chronicle-Telegraph (1934 à ce jour)

I cannot subscribe to a doctrine of that kind, and if 1 look to the Sovereigns of Europe I see many of them who could never subscribe to the doctrine that a peu,ne have no right upon fault or upon offence lo declare that they will no longer give their obedience to a Sovereign who has not afforded them protection and who has rightly forfeited their allegiance.To take the latest instance first, the King of the Belgians owes his crown to a popular revolution.Such, too, though at a more remote date, is the founlalion of the right of the King of Holland, who owes his throne to a popular revolt ogainst the Crown of Spain.Such is the foundation of the right of the King of Sweden, to whose crown there is even now a pretender.Such, in fact, is the right of the Emperor of the French to his throne.\u2014(Hear, hear !) If the right of legitimacy were to prevail, who but the Duke of Bordeaux could claim the allegiance of the people ot France ?and yet they pay no allegiance to him.but yield their willing submission to the Emperor who now rules over them.Such, likewise, is the foundation of the right of our own dynasty.\u2014(Cheers.) Our Sovereign can claim no right superior to that derived from tt-e decision of the Parliament and the people of Great Britain that the Throne was forfeited by the House of Stuart, in consequence of the rights of the people and their withdrawing from the country over which they reigned.If such it the case, is Italy to be the only country the people of which are not to exercise this power.\u2014(Hear, hear!) Are the people of luiy, who, as I have said, have been so moderate and so just in their proceedings, who have committed no outrages, who have taken part in no violence, to be deprived of that right, of that power, which had been exercised in Belgium, in Holland, in Sweden, in France, and iu Great Britain ?I cannot be a party to denying them that right.\u2014 (Hear, bear!) On the contrary, 1 believe that if you allow the people of Italy to settle their own concerns\u2014(Hear, hear !)\u2014and that is the doctrine which my noble friend and myself bar* always held in this House, especially during the whole course of the present session\u2014if you allow the people of July, wheth- ' er they have hiluerio lived under the rule of the Duke of Modena, under the Pope, or under the King of the Two Sicilies, to seule with their sovereigns on what terms they shall pay their allegiance, there will no longer exist the irritation and discontent which so long prevailed, but they will proceed with peace and order to establish the foundations of good government.With respect to our conduct in : these matters, I have no wish to interfere prematurely or to keep up a constant interven- ; lion in the affairs ot other nations, but, at the same time, I cannot forget the history of my country.I cannot be blind to her greatness, nor can I forget her duties.She has duties to ; Europe as she has duties to her own people.I cannot believe in that at which my right hon friend the member for Stroud seemed to hint,\u2014 a new fantastic policy by which this country; should separate herself, as it was supposed to do in Roman times, from the whole world, and i attend merely to her internal affairs.I believe that if she did that, if she forgot her duties, if she refused her advice and her councils, { wi on that advice and those councils were required, while in the first instance her conduct would be injurious to other nations, while in the second place it would lead to the prepon- the representatives of the other Powers of Fu-derance of some great power, and to the conse- rope.The conviction that such is the case must quent injury and detriment of the people of necessarily be a source of deep regret in an as-Kurope, it would end in the loss of that very semhly where so many persons are at all times independence which by such selfish means wo | found prepared to take part in the disenssion had endeavoured to maintain.\u2014(Cheers )\u2014 of foreign affairs.\u2014^Cheers and laughter.) The be sent to the Emperor of Austria, but as to offering any advice, we distinctly declare that we offer no advice or opinion regarding them.Austria may accept them or reject them as it may deem best.\u201d He said afterwards to me, 441 do not believe my Government will accept these terms ; but supposing they were accepted, and I got an answer saying that Austria was ready to treat on those terms, what then?\u20194 I said if that happened\u2014if we once knew that Austria was ready to treat on those terms, then we would offer ourselves aa mediators, or in any other character Austria might prefer; and 1 said, 41 If you would prefer that I should speak to the Ministers of Prussia and Russia, and inform them of the terms, and that there weuld be no difficulty in proposing them as a basis of a peace, I am ready to do so.\"\u2014(Hear, hear!) I think it was our duty not to conceal from Austria that peace might be obtained on the terms proposed.\u2014(Hear !) If we had refused to communicate those terms, and if Verona and Pescbiera and Venice bad fallen, and Austria had been obliged to make worse terms than those which we had been asked to transmit, we would have exposed onrselves, I think, to severe animadversion,\u2014(Hear hear!) This was on the Wednesday.On the Sunday I received a note from Count Apponyi, saying that his Government considered these propositions quite Inadmissible.I do not find fault with the bon.gentleman for making a confusion in the story, because he probably bad heard it very inaccurately, and has only repeated it as he heard it ; but at that time, on that very day, a further proposal was made to my noble friend on a smaller number of articles, I think four, which the French Government requested us to communicate to Austria, and to communicate with a view to recommend them.Mr noble friend and I considered that question, and we resolved to ask our colleagues what was their opinion of that proposition.On the same evening, however.I received from Count Apponyi the note to which I have referred, and, accordingly, the next day there could be no doubt or difficulty in the Cabinet, because we were all agreed not to propose to Austria terms on which she was not willing to treat.These terms did not differ in substance, tnough they might in degree, from those which we had seen before, and we could never recommend to Austria terms upon which she had already declared that she would not treat.That was our conduct towards the Austrian Government.I think in this statement the hon.gentleman will find an answer to all his questions.It is a very plain story, and it is one upon which the Government is prepared to stand.Well, sir, there is much difficulty attending communications by telegram, and it is likewise very difficult for beligerent Powers to know what is goine on in the councils of neutrals ; but it certainly did so happen that, while on the one side the Emperor of Austria said that the Neutral Powers were considering terms of mediation which would probably have been more unfavourable to him than those which he obtained directly from the Emperor of the French, at the same time the Emperor of the French said that the German Powers were so hostile to him that if he had not made peace he wuuld in a short time have had to make war upon the Rhine.These statements were rather statements of apprehension than of fact.It might never have happened that the Neutral Powers would propose any terms of mediation at all.They bad never agreed upon any basis of mediation, they bad never even had any serious discussion of the terms of mediation.Prussia had made a proposal, to which the hon.gentleman alluded, and for not commaoicating which he finds fault with me The fact was that the Prussian Minister took away his dispatch, and particularly desired that it might be considered a confidential dispatch, and one j of which be did not wish a copy to be left in the office or communicated to the Government.To revert again, however, to the state of things which existed when peace was made :\u2014The Emperor of the French thought that war was impending upon the Rhine, and that that was the future which he had to meet The Empe-' ror of Austria thought that the Neutral Powers were considering terms of mediation, and these apprehensions\u2014not any certain knowledge, becanaetbere were no facts npon which that knowled ge could he founded\u2014did operate upon their minds, nnd they used them as justifications for the peace which they made.I must say, sir, that, so far from thinking that we are deeply responsible if we in any way unintentionally contributed to this result, I should greatly rejoice if our position was such\u2014if our attitude was such\u2014that it induced those great Powers to make peace, and not to prolong that sanguinary war which, had it been continued, would.I am persuaded, have had no result, either for the benefit of Italy or of mankind, which would have made amends for the blood shed and the tnisehief done in its course.Therefore, although we can claim no credit for the peace\u2014 although our mediation did not produce it.and although I think that the right bon.gentleman is mistaking in supposing that the transmission of those terras induced the Emperor of Austria to conclude the treaty, and give up Lombardy, I do rejoice that peace was made, and I think that the future of Italy and the future of Europe will be far better provided forby councils of peace, whether they are the councils of Governments or the coocils of peoples\u2014whether they are conducted by diplomatic corres.pondence or by conference, than could have been accomplished by the continuance of the late war.\u2014(Hear, hear !

\u201ca continual source of party demoralisation, offering a standing premium to party leaders, who through such au agency can rule in defiance of the public opinion of their own section.\" The tlpublic opinion of Iheir own etetionf there is a manifest inconsistency in this expression, end it is quite evident Ihsl, in the writer\u2019s mind, public opinion is the opinion of his own setion.Were the alternative, however, to be the Union as it now exists or a situ pie Dissolution, we should have nothing fear (says the Globe in the same obscure mode of expression) we should have nothing to fear a decision in favor of a dissolution.Without waiting to enquire what sense these words may be intended to imply, we pass readily to the conclusion, at which the Globe, arrives, being strongly of opinion that the said conclusion far outruns the logic employed to introduce It, and must have been derived from a different origin.\u201c A Federative I nion of the two sections with provision for the extension of federal system, as occasion might require, would secure exemption from wrong and ability to control our own affairs.\u201d This is a plausible position ; but it implies a premature dissolution of the Union, which (we imagine) must continue undisturbed, until the British North American Provinces Are in a state of sufficient maturity to be amalgamated in one general confederation.And thus the only feasible solution of the whole question with respect to tbe increasing anomalies, which occur in the nnionjof Upper and Lower Canada, will be found (if it can be found at all) as the Imperial Government had foreseen, in a confederation of the British N.American Provinces* The Editor of the Canmlien, in onr opinion commits a grave mistake, not so much in consenting to accept of tbe proposal for a dissolution of the union between Upper and Lower Canada, as by seeming to ignore the existence of any other population or religion in Lower Canada than the Franco-Csoadian Thb VicroniA Briho*.\u2014The Editor of the Ronton .ill'tt concludes a description of this magnificent work, as follows : Taken as a whole, we reganl Victoria Bridge as the noblest specimen in the wort»!

smoke, too, ross from the devoted **difice, aud were blown eastward by the breeze.His Lordship, Bishop Farrell, when aroused, at once saw that the building could not be saved; he, however, directed Mr.Harcourt Bull to the spot where the safe was kept, with the plate and the box with the sacred vessels.Through their exertions, aided by a host of willing arms, these were saved, but not until the box was charred and the vessels so heated that they could not be held in an ungloved hand.Now the hose arrived, and was quickly adjusted to the hydrant, but it was loo late to save the church ; all that could be done was to save the school house next to it\u2014which was preserved uninjured, not so much as a pane of glass being broken\u2014 and the small houses in rear.One of these, occupied by Mr.Hanilfon, who, we believe, carries ice around for Mr Dewey, had the roof burned and a little subie destroyed.\u2014A hundred dollars, however, will remedy all that damage, as fortunately, all Mr.H's.cattle were out at pasture, so none of them were lost.We have said the Church could not be saved ; the people had to look on while the roof fell in, and while the fierce red fire shot up to tbe lad-fry and enveloped tbe lofty cross.This, too, fell ; tbe organ and galleries went down with a crash, and at six o\u2019clock nothing bnt charred timbers remained.There was no insurance on any of the property destroyed, which, including the pictures, organ, the Bishops chair, Ac , we estimate, must have been worth from $15,000 to $20,000 Whst the Roman Catholics will do fur a place to meet in was, of course, one of the first considerations for the clergy.We believe it has been arranged that tao Services will be held every Sunday in each school-houie until notice is given of a more permanent arrangement.We understand, however, that steps will be taken to build a brick church, of a plain design, on tbe same spot, as there not yet sufficient funds to commence the Cathedral on James Street.This church will be roofed ir> before winter, and a meeting will soon be held to raise money by subscription.We cannot, ns yet, say anything as to the cause of tbe fire.Some say it was incendiary, while others imagine not.An investigation, we learn is being held.Tbe Ust Deutehe Post (Austrian paper) \u2022ntict-pates a \u201csatulactoty\" result from the Conference \u201cWe see a proof that this will be to in tbe «iispo-ait ions ul A ust Ha srd France, and in the concessions of Ssrdit\u2019M.K'ng Victor Em ¦Minus I hs* renounced tunlivr re«i*lrnfe.He contents himself with whst «b*nwe* 'o the friendship ot Francs and which be esn o »ly i»rf»«*rve by grateful de-votednvtt let Kis z* ne rolls benefactor.Now, Sardinia being disposed to Bcrocnplnh the oh.ig»-tiot a which she acrep'ed by contenting to the |irelitiunar»esa iwmriius obs\u2019teles can aria* to the execution ol ¦hns'* orslnviaaries.The agitation in the Dutch es *nd in R» magna, the result of the vote ol 'Tuscan), fee., however iii'»ch i overpay b* made ahou; 'fetn.will In* soon reduced to very bitle \u2022\u2022 soon a* the ventshle slate ot things ahall be nuf.le k nrwn And that veritable ala'»* will he kn\u2022^»',\u2022 »¦\u2022 soon ss Piedmont shall se* ri< Uily withdraw I #r support fin*»» agitato»*\u2014at *o>n at the revo'nlion *h*ll know that it hat noth ng to hope fer 'ioiii France.\u2019 The London hur ol the I7ih inst.fis» the fol-hwmg : 11 |t baa been decided at the Conference of Zurich that the armistice shsll be indefinitely pro-louged.The plenipotentiaries are now engaged in defining (be future lint of boundaiy letwerii the Veuitisn Slates «mShaidmiair LowbaiHy.According to reliable accounts the best leebng prevails in the deliherstiona »*l tin* eiivsv», and they pursue their work loge ih^r in perfect har-ntony.The tumors affntmng a contrary state of thin** a e i ot borne out os yet by any well ascertained fact.Three principal question* are un-iler consideration.The lirai concerna the character end system ol thr| luture govornment of (he Italian province which is to reiram under the Austrian sceptre; the second relates to the Duchies, and its solution is peihapa the m
