PATRONS AND SUPPORTERS:

THE MERCHANTS AND SHIPOWNERS OF LIVERPOOL.
Liverpool being now the first port of embarka-
tion in the world, it has been thought advisable to
establish a company for the express purpose of giv-
ing the intending emigrant to theßritish Colonies in
Australia and Canada, and to the United States of
America (but more especially to Australia), such gratuitous in-
formation as is requisite to obtain a cheap and agreeable voyage,
and to promote his safety and success on his arrival.
To this end a regular register will be kept at the Company's
Offices of all Emigrant Ships of character leaving Liverpool, to-
gether.with the correct time of sailing, the scale of charge, tax.,
a:A the latest time for the emigrant leaving his home.
Another register will contain a list of respectable hotels and
lodging-houses, with their scale of charges, and the addresses of
tradesmen from whom the emigrant may obtain his outfit of ne-
cessary articles at moderate prices.
As none but ships, hotels, and tradesmen of undoubted clia-
raoter can obtain an entry on the Company's Regi,ster, it is con-
fidently and earnestly' hoped that the emigrant will firmly with-
stand every attempi through other means to induce him to engage
his passage, or pay a deposit, before his arrival at the Company's
Offices in Liverpool, where he is certain to gain that knowledge,
free of charge, which will effectually shield him against the impo-
sitions to which he is unavoidably exposed.
Emigrants should give the company a week's notice at least of
the time of their departure for Liverpool, and their mode of tra-
velling, when its servants will be in attendance to receive them
and heir luggage.
As the company is supported by its patrons, no servant is al-
lowed to receive fees of any kind on pain of dismissal.
Attendance at the Chief Offices, Liverpool, from Ten to Five
All applications attended to gratuitously. Letters per
-post, with postage stamp enclosed, must he addressed to The
Secretary of the Emigrants' Advice and Protection Company,
Liverpool." W. WHITEHOUSE, Secretary.
