dress as well as in creeds—institutions drawn from the
Coutume de Paris and the Parliament of Westminster—
ancient feudalities and modern privileges—traditions of
the Sulpicians and reminiscences of Lord Sydenham—
nunneries next door to Manchester
warehouses—barristers pleading in the language of France and a
customhouse decorated with the Royal Arms of England—priests
in long black dresses, and Scotch Presbyterians—cabmen
in frieze jackets fresh from Ireland and native market
carters in coloured sashes and night-caps—in short, a
complication of incongruities; the old and new world jumbled
together, and then assorted according to some odd device
in social economics. Such is Montreal.
