300 PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND . Colville , Rollo, Fortune, and Boughton Bays, are small harbours, with thriving settlements, situated on the south-east of the island, between Three Rivers and the east point. The inhabitants are principally Highlanders and Acadian French. Murray Harbour lies between and Three Rivers . It is well sheltered ; but the entrance is in¬ tricate, and large ships can only take in part of their cargoes within the bar. Several cargoes of timber have been exported from this place, and a number of excellent ships, brigs, and small vessels, have been built here by Messrs Cambridge and Sons, whose extensive establishments, mills, ship-yards, &c, have for many years afforded employment to a number of people. The cultivation of the soil has, however, for a long time been neglected; but an accession of industrious people, who have settled here within the last few years, are making great improvements. The lands in the townships abutting and adjoining Murray Harbour , are very fertile, and form an exten¬ sive district, extending from Three Rivers to the Earl of Selkirk 's property, at Wood Island . There are some fine and beautiful farms fronting on the shores, and some small lagoons, particularly at Gaspereau pond, situated to the eastwai'd of Murray Harbour .* Belfast .—This district may be said to include the villages of Great arid Little Belfast , Orwell, and Point Prime, with the settlements at , Flat River , Belle Creek , and Wood Islands .
