This was Performed under the direction of two commis- sioners, the Director of Surve.ys, Toronto, for the province of Ontar- io, and the Surveyor General, Otta- wa; for the Dominion of Canada. The interests of the peoeince of Manitoba were considered to be the same as those of the Dominion since Dominion lands only Were affected. The report of these commissieners has just been leaned. It present:1 a historical sketch with the incidents leading up to the necessity for the survey, the present 'boundaries, meth- ods of survey, actual surveys made, and a general description of the dis- trict. An appendix giving the tomtits of magnetic declination observations is also included. Perhaps the most interesting feat- ure of the repert so far as the gen- eral public is concerned, is the chap- ter devoted to a description of the district.
