Abstract Public School Reform and the Haliiax Middle Class, 1850-1870 In mid-nineteenth century Halifax a coherent and sometimes self-conscious middle class began to emerge. The new middle class slowly forged a common identity through the changing social relations of the international industrial economy and through an increasing attachment to a cluster of ideas that can collectively be called bourgeois progress. Between 1850 and 1870 diverse groups within the middle class banded together in associations and organizations to pursue their goal of moral and material progress. The role of the pursuit of moral progress in creating a middle class identity and consolidating middle class influence is the central subject of this study. The transformation of a loosely organized collection of varied public schools into a large modern, professional and bureaucratic school system forms the central core of the discussion of the process of middle class formation in Halifax. The success of middle class institutional development in Halifax rested on newly acquired mechanisms for intra-class collaboration. The development of new strategies for middle class collaboration was an essential step in the consolidation of bourgeois power and influence. vi Abbreviations ER Report of the Superintendent of Schools for the Province of Nova Scotia, appended to the Journal of the House of Assembly (Nova Scotia) ER Report of the Superintendent of Schools for the Province of Nova Scotia J Ed Journal of Education (Nova Scotia) J HA Journal of the House of Assembly (Nova Scotia) NSHQ Nova Scotia Historical Quarterly NSHS Nova Scotia Historical Society PANS Public Archives of Nova Scotia PEA Provincial Education Association SNS Statutes of Nova Scotia YMCA Young Men's Christian Association Acknowledgements Once again I would like to thank Michael Cross for his excellent supervision. David Sutherland has been more than generous, not only sharing his unpublished research on the members of the Halifax business community, but often acting as a testing board for my ideas. My friends and office mates Michael Earlc and Suzanne Morton have for years provided me with stimulation and comfort. Judith Fingard and Ruth Bleasdale have both offered encouragement and valuable criticism throughout my years at Dalhousie. Without the miracles performed by History Department graduate secretary Mary Wyman and her colleague Tina Jones there would be no other thank yous. I have benefitted enormously from participation in the Dalhousie History Graduate Students' Seminar and the Halifax History Group. And like countless others before me I want to thank the patient staff of the Public Archives of Nova Scotia who have responded to hundreds of requests and have also brought new resources to my attention. Finally, I want to thank my family for keeping me in touch with another and more immediate reality. viii Introduction In December 1859 William Garvie, an ambitious twenty- two year old tutor at Dalhousie College, explicitly linked moral and material progress to Christianity in a speech to the Young Men's Christian Association entitled "The Light and the Shadows or Christianity the Ideal of our Race". The speech was so well received by the audience that it was printed for wider distribution.! Garvie's forum, the content of his talk and his florid and romantic style combine to make "The Light and the Shadows" a useful starting point in the pursuit of an understanding of emerging middle class values in Halifax. His forum, the Young Men's Christian Association, was one of a plethora of non-denominational Protestant organizations established in Halifax in the 1850s which manifested the faith in specialization and collaboration that were hallmarks of the middle class. An earlier gathering had prompted the Presbyterian Witness to exult that "a finer scene cannot be imagined than that of a large assemblage composed of all the evangelical denominations...united with one heart and one voice". 2 Garvie presented his audience with a highly teleological version of the history of the world, a version of history that culminated in the glories of mid- nineteenth Protestant culture.3 He told his audience Freedom and improvement are identified with its cause, art and science are its handmaids... It has asserted the divine right of manhood, and 1 I 2 proclaims freedom to the slave; it has triumphantly recogr.ized the proper social sphere of womanhood; it has given expansion to the intellect, and opposed a barrier to moral wrong; and raising man to the vantage ground of its Ideal, it points through the glorious vistas of the future to a higher existence — a happiness ennobling and immortal — and having done this can it meet a rival in any age or clime?4 In mid-nineteenth century Halifax a coherent and sometimes self-conscious middle class began to emerge. The new middle class slowly forged a common identity through the changing social relations of the international industrial economy and through an increasing attachim nt to a cluster of ideas that can collectively be called bourgeois progress. Many within this group believed that both material and moral progress could be achieved through the application of scientific knowledge and the adoption of democratic political institutions and the replacement of aristocracy with meritocracy. Together these ideas fostered faith in professionalization and state intervention. At the same time new theological enthusiasms spawned by the religious revivals of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century continued to spread a doctrine of optimism and faith in social perfectability. The combined forces of economic change and evangelical religion acted on the family to produce new social and familial roles for men and women.5 while these changes threatened to disrupt existing social relationships and alliances, many within the emerging 3 middle class were enthusiastic promoters of the new order. Their efforts to direct and control the process of change were both a pursuit of their material interest and a reflection of their faith in their ability and their right to create a better society. The process of middle class formation must, therefore, be analyzed as both an economic and an ideological or cultural phenomenon. The middle class made a close connection between material and moral progress. The identification of this relationship was central to the emergence of a common middle class identity and to the consolidation of middle class influence.

MDCCCXLIIL Digitized by GoogI e OXPOBD: PRINTSD BY I. 8RBlIlPTON. THE OXFORD SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING THE STUDY OF GO THIC ARCHITECTURE. GOTHIC ARCHITECTURE is a subject which has of late years excited a considerable degree of public interest, and the labours of many eminent individuals have been directed to the recovery of its Principles. From the scarcity of records ex­ isting monuments are the safest guides in this research: but as they are widely separated, the labour of examination and comparison is so great, that, without some more systematic plan of operation than has hitherto been adopted, we can scarcely expect that the task will be satisfactorily accom­ plished. It has been suggested that this inconvenience may be best met by the formation of Local Associations, having for their principal aim the collecting of Drawings, and descriptions of the Edifices in their immediate neighbourhood, which would thus form so many sources, whence the enquirers into the Gothic Antiquities of any particular district might derive in­ formation.· In furtherance of this object, "The Oxford Society for Promoting the Study of Gothic Architecture" .has been established. The number of Churches now fast rising in every part of tbecountry, renders it 6ithe highest importance to provide for the cultivation of correct Architectural Taste; the circum­ stances of this place seem to point it out as peculiarly well suited for the purpose; because many of its residents are, or soon will be, Clergymen, the constituted guardians of our Ecclesiutical Edifices, while the City itself, and its neigh­ bourhood, abound in specimens of every period of the Art.

Introduction The sigh of relief on the Atlantic coast could be heard all the way to Ottawa on October 17, 2016. On that day, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced the nomination of Justice Malcolm Rowe of the Newfoundland and Labrador Court of Appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada seat vacated by Justice Thomas Cromwell. Justice Cromwell’s replacement was to be the first appointed pursuant to a new process put in place by the Trudeau government. When that process was unveiled on August 2, 2016, Trudeau announced that the position would be open to any qualified Canadian lawyer or judge who was functionally bilingual and “representative of the diversity of our great country.” A further clarification stated that “[a]pplications are being accepted from across Canada in order to allow for a selection process that ensures outstanding individuals are considered for appointment to the Supreme Court of Canada,” confirming that Atlantic Canadians did not have a lock on the position.1 People on the east coast generally take most things in stride, but this proposed change created a considerable outcry.
