The Quebec daily mercury
Tout au long du XIXe siècle, le Quebec Mercury soutient les intérêts de la bourgeoisie anglophone conservatrice de Québec. [...]

Le Quebec Mercury est un journal en langue anglaise qui paraît pour la première fois à Québec le 5 janvier 1805. Il est fondé par Thomas Cary, marchand et bibliophile anglophone de Québec. D'abord hebdomadaire, il devient bihebdomadaire en 1816, trihebdomadaire en 1832, puis quotidien en 1863.

Rival du journal francophone Le Canadien, dont il a stimulé la naissance, et pourfendeur de l'ordre traditionnel du Québec francophone, le Quebec Mercury soutient les intérêts de la bourgeoisie anglophone conservatrice de Québec. Le journal appuie les décisions du gouvernement britannique et prend position dans les débats politiques du Canada, ce qui l'amène dans les premières décennies de son existence à s¿opposer régulièrement aux élus du Bas-Canada.

De facture étonnamment moderne, le Quebec Mercury présente les nouvelles locales accompagnées de nouvelles étrangères pigées dans les journaux anglais et américains. Le journal réserve dans ses pages une large place à la publicité.

Thomas Cary fils prend les rênes du journal à la retraite de son père en 1823.

Le ton francophobe des débuts s'adoucira avec les années. Thomas Cary partagera d'ailleurs la propriété du journal avec George-Paschal Desbarats de 1828 à 1848. George Thomas Cary, fils de Thomas, dirigera la publication à partir de 1855.

John Henry Willan, avocat, devient éditorialiste en 1850. Le Quebec Mercury prend alors des positions favorables à l'annexionnisme avec les États-Unis. Willan restera au journal jusqu'en 1862. En août 1862, la famille Cary met le journal en location, ce qui permet à Josiah Blackburn et à George Sheppard de prendre les postes d'éditeur et de rédacteur, dans le but d'appuyer l'homme politique réformiste John Sandfield MacDonald, qui devient premier ministre du Canada-Uni.

Le retour au pouvoir du conservateur John A. MacDonald en mars 1864 entraîne la réapparition de Willan au Quebec Mercury afin d'appuyer le projet de confédération, mais avec moins d'enthousiasme que le Morning Chronicle.

Le tirage du Quebec Mercury atteint 1000 exemplaires en 1870 et 3000 en 1898, année où George Stewart, auteur et critique littéraire, en fait l'acquisition. Le journal était demeuré la propriété de la famille Cary jusqu'en février 1890. L'homme politique libéral Joseph-Israël Tarte, proche de Wilfrid Laurier, achète le Mercury en 1902, mais la surabondance de journaux anglophones à Québec ne permet pas au journal de survivre au-delà d'octobre 1903.

With all due del''fence to our eontenipo- 1 ray Cr Journal de Quebec, tve will again repeat that \u201c for all practical purpose* Montreal is stronger than Quebec.\u201d Le tournai has fallen iuto some serious errors in its rc J view of our oomraents.We never gave it to he understood, for instance, that the fortifi-cations erected lor the doleoco of Montreal -irouiii ho excavueuti-d on tho north side ol the livi-r between the St.Lawrence and the city, and must certainly say that by so inferring our contemporary lias abuu hmly * proved that ho does' not understand the argument, or the tiist principles of the new system of defence which Ins relegated Quebec to a secondary rank as a fortress.The editor must not suppose that tho do-signers of the defences of this oily would bo so blind as to erect them within its immediate neighbourhood, and thereby expose the Victerii Bridge and Montreal to the shot ' and «hell of an enemy.By no means.If j Montreal is ever attacked and defended thu .8'rugglc for its pos-essiun will take place on ! the plain betwot-n this and St.Johns, at a [ vale distance for Montreal from the enemy's \u2022 cannon.The city itself would fall as soon as a hostile force could penetrate to tho river bank opposite, und bring its artillery to bust- upon it.The country they would lir.it have to paas over it wc will admit, as level as a billiard table, but nevertheless, we repeat, could soon be turue-J into a labyrinth of earthworks of greater importance und greater strength than the walls of Quebec, and so govern the contest for the pos»e.s-tan ol the city that it wuuld reduce itself to a mere question of 11 .ml and money.Tho editor ot the Journal, in addition to thu soiges we referred to, should also study thu h-sson conveyed by the successful attack by the Federal ilects on Forts St.Philip and Jackson, Pulaski and FLhcr during the recent war.The difference between stone forts sueh us they have at Quebec and the earthworks propo-ed to he erected in front of Montreal, would the ¦, perhaps, be somewhat more apparent to his undentanding.They went down like chaff before thu poundcriiig they were subjected to, whilu the c.irthwoik* ot Vicksburg, fiorinth and Richmond were never directly taken by assault, und would probably have been held to this day if the men and resources with whiuli thu South origiualiy defended them could luvc been kept up Napoleon once said that he fought and wou his battles with the leg-i and not witli the arms of his (-oldie:*, flic science uf tbe present day will soon cau-c it, in the same way, to be said that umpires are kept and won with the spado and not with the musket.Heporiul for the Daily Mercury.lti:i*OKT.|0 A.1|.UUKOPEAN NÜVV8.BY THE CABLE.LONDON, Jan.8.Report* from Hong Kong state that thu French II- ct iu the Corea i» about to leave tiioM.- water» for thu winter without being able to obtain adequate redress from Cochin ; China.MANCHESTER, Jan.8.Manuiuetuiiiig interests are dull ; orders limited.Middling Uplands 15 peace.LIVERPOOL, Jan.8, eve.Bn-udstulli rumaiu quiet.Cora quoted at t2i to 12s \u2022>«!
