Book excerpt: Excerpt from A General Description of Nova Scotia: Illustrated by a New and Correct Map Annapolis, soon became the Capital of all the French settico ments in the Province. In these voyages of discovery, the object pursued by the Sovereign was dominion, but gain stimulated the subjects. As a compensation for this hazard ous enterprise, and important service, the King of France made a grant to De Monts, of all the country from the 4oth to the 46th degree of northern latitude. This Territory had the general appellation of New France, or Acadia, and is the same which was afterwards called Nova Scotia, compre hending the present Province of that name, New Brunswick, and Cape Breton. The French however were prevented by the English settlers from crossing the Kenebec river. Thus by the extreme points of national strength and exertion, a boundary seemed to be settled, not as the line of peace and concord, but as the place of future controversies. All the lands from the river Kenebec to the Narragansett country, being granted to the company called the Council for the affairs of New England, and being reduced to possession un der the grants of that campany, assumed the name of New England by common consent. It is singular that the Offs Spring of these two rival nations, no longer acknowledge' their former patrons. New France belongs to Great Britain, and New England is an independent state. The French have preserved in their records a great variety of incidents, which took place while they were in the progress of disco vering and settling Acadia. A minute detail of all these events, so similar to the early history of most of the Ameri can Colonies, would not be interesting to every reader, and from the circumstantial detail, with which they are related, would far exceed the limits of this chapter, which is designed, rather as a sketch of the political changes of the country, than a history of its settlement. In 1618, Sir Samuel Arga I, then Governor of Virginia, made a cruising voyage along the coast, as far north as Cape Cod. There he was inform ed of De Monts' Fort at Port Royal, in the southwest part of Acadia, which he soon afterwards conquered and destroyer]. About this period, Sir Ferdinand Gorges, Presi dent oi the New England Company, recommended to Sir William Alexander, to procure from the English Government a particular grant of New France, or of a portion of that country to the northward of their Patent.
