Mr. son ay wooden press, made by ome Scripture, of Colborne. Afithough a very indifferent affair, it was used for a year, when Mr. Wilson procured an iron press from New York, probably one of the first iron printing presses in the province. The Free Press was continued for five yoarst Mr. Welles was editor for a short time only. This journal was evidently intended for the public weal. No one can read the fn dacs without being convinced h t the proprietor was intent upon rendering service to the public. He al- lied himself to no - party; contending political aspirants had equal access to the columns of the Press, and could thereby challenge unbiased attention. The Traveller, or Prince Edward Ga- zette, published every Friday by Cecil Mortimer, commenced April, 1537, and continued about four years, when the printing press was removed to Co- bourg. Gazette appeared at Picton; J. Dornan publisher. It was continued under this name by Rev. Mr. Playter. In 1847 and 1849, T. Donnelly became editor the Picton Gazette, which name it still bears. Mr. Dounelly was succeed- ed as editor in 1853 by Maurice Moore, and he again by S. M. Conger, in 1856, whose family continues to publish this | old and popular journal. The Picton Sun was established in 1841, by J. Douglas, who was: succeeded in 1845 by J. McDonald, and he again, in 1849, by Mr. Striker, who removed it to Cobourg, in 1853. The following year Dr. Gillespie and R. Boyle com- menced the Picton Times, which' still continues to thrive. The North Am- evican was removed from Newburgh in 1861, and published by McMullen Bros. The New Nation succeeded it in 1866, but went the way of most news- flesh. Phe Anglo-Canadian, established in February, 1831, printed and published by Alexander T. W. Williamson, and W. A. Welles, was the first paper pub- lished in Belleville. The Phoenix arose from the ashes of the Anglo-Canadian. It was first issued July, 1881, and published gvery Tucsday by T. Slicer, editor and proprietor. In one of the early copies is a prospectus of the Canadian Wesleyan; the subseribers to the announcement are "H. Ryan" and "Jd. Jackson," dated Hamilton, Aug- ust, 1831.4 The last number. of the Phoenix, issued July 8rd, 1832, "is- sued by W. A. Welles, for the proprie- tors," says: "As the present number completes the year, it is intended to give the paper a new name, which, though less classical, may be consid- ered nfore appropriate" --the Hastings Times, published by €. Benedict. The Intelligencer, of Belleville, was founded by George Benjamin, Septem- ber, 1834. He contindbd as its editor until 1848, when Mackenmie Bowell, now Sir Muockenzie, succeeded him. He remains the proprietor. Mr. Benjamin was an Englishman, born 1799, and died 1864. He was a gentleman of more than ordinary ability, a consis- tent politician, and a true friend. He held the highest municipal offices, and was M.P. from 1856 tc 1882. The Vie- toria Chronicle was founded in 1841, by 8S. M. Washburn and J. Sutton, who had removed from . Brockville, Sutton remained partner for years. In 1849 the establishment was pur | chased from Washburn by E. Miles, who, with T. R. Mason, continued for a long time as proprictor.

Kingston was first incorporated, as a town, in 1837, with a mayor, four aldermen and four councillors. Incor- poration as a city, with more alder- men and councillors, occurred in 1846, soon after it had been cut off as 'the seat of government. King- ston's longest and greatest struggle was between 1848 and 1852, over the inclusion of lot 24, the populous su- {burb best i as the great | in 1840, the Prince Bdward (Stretch of houses and land west of and Division streets.

F ledges were forced upon the county member, and threats were made against all and sundry who should promote the migrations, burnings and wonders were t0 be enacted should parliament perpetrate the outrage, {and yet one fine morning the bill was calmly 'made law, and lot 24, divided into Rideau and Victoria wards, be- came part and parcel of the city. And there was® no exodus, or riot, or conflagrations, only peace, perfect peace; the war was over, and defeat acknowledged. --------t-- ISLANDS SHUNNED. -- Dreamy Maidens Find Life Lone- some Along the River. The sign "Wanted, a Man." might well be posted at more than one resort at the Thousand Islands this season: Not in ryears . has there been such a scarcity of the much §esired male sex. Hotel keepers, as well as the maidens, are bemoaning the fact. Many of the hotel proprietors say their guests are protesting because there are no men about and in consequence it is dull. Why the young men are shunning the islands this summer is an unsolved problem. One man in discussing the situation said that he believed the young men were becoming more and more addicted to stag parties in the woods. Others claim the expense at- tached to a vacation at the islands is too much for the pocketbook. ------------ Marriage At Peterboro. A pretty wedding occurred in the Church of England parsonage, Peter- boro, on July 2nd, when Miss Mabel h, Kingston, and Charles Edward es, Toronto, were united in marriage, After the ceremony the young couple drove to the home of the bride's cousin, No. 13 Ce- dar street, where ga sumptuous supper was served, The bride looked charming in a grey tra selling suit and white point d'esprit blouse and white picture hat to match. The groom's gift to the bride was a prarl ring and to the bridesmaid 5 wold belt buckle. The bride received many beautiful and useful presents, among them a family Bible from the lside's brother of Toronto. The bride receiv- ed many gilts from Kingston; she is 4 graduate from Kingston hospital.
