ITOTICE TO EMIGRANTS. —The Government
of Canada has authorised the establishment of an Office
In the above named Buildings, and has appointed the under-
signed Agent for the purpose of giving reliable information as
to its Agricultural and Mineral resources, to all persons intend-
ing to Emigrate to that Province, or who may desire to obtain
information respecting the same.
Individuals and associations who have represented to the
Canadian Government that they would be willing to settle
Emigrants in Canada, provided they could obtain large Tracks
of Land, on which to locate a number of families from the
same neighbourhood, are hereby notified, that " Blocks "
averaging 50,000 acres, have been set apart to enable themi
to carry their intentions into effect.
Parties interested in the mineral resources of Canada are
informed that Maps, showing the position of the Mineral
Tracks, can be seen at this office.
These tracks extend chiefly along the shores of Lakes
Huron and Superior. They are believed to be of great value.
The Wellington Copper Mine (Lake Huron) has been success-
fully worked by a London Company for nearly six years. This
Company have. recently obtained a New Charter, to enable
them to extend their operations, and is now known as "The
West Canada Mining Company." •
Other mines are carried on by local associations.
The tracks belonging to the Government can, be obtained on
the following conditions :
On the payment of £25 the Commissioner of Crown Lands
will issue a license to any individual, authorising him to ex-
plore any unconceded land belonging to the Government for
Copper, Lead, hen, Tin, Marble, Gypsum, Earths, or Minerals ;
such license,to remain in force for a period of two years, at the
expiration of which he will be required to complete his pur-
chase, paying for the. lands in fee, at the rate of six shillings
and threepence per acre. Further information may be obtained
et this office.

opinions respecting the Government and condition of Canada,
the following facts are submitted for their consideration :

There are now in Canada 1,871 miles of railway, being a
greater number of miles, in proportion to the population,
than any other country in the world. Steam-boats ply on all
the navigable waters. Railways and steam-boats are sub-
jected. to close and constant Government inspection. Roads
macadamised, gravelled, planked, and turnpiked, traverse the
country in all direction. Common schools aftbrd free educa-

and universities are also readily available to persons in moder-
ate circumstances.

the rights and privileges of a native-born citizen. Aliens can
buy, sell, and hold land. A complete system of registry is
established in every county, and undoubted titles to freehold
property are easily and cheaply procured.
