As inanv persons; otherwise vzellinforined, entertain erroneous
opinions respecting the Government and condition of Canada,
;the following facts are subMitted for their consideration::—
Canada. enjoys perfect religions, social,' and political free-
dom. Through her own Parliament she makes-her own laws.
. Her Municipal :institutions are .unrivalled; each county,
township, city, and village makes, its own municipal laws.
There are no direct taxes except those levied by the people
of the different municipalities on themselves, and these•vary
according to the necessities of each municipality.
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 turupiked, traverse the
country in all direction. Common schools afford free educa-
tion every where to the people, and grammar-and high schools
and universities are also readily available to persons in -moder-
ate circumstances.

Three yean' residence in Canada entitles it foreigner to all
the rights and privileges of a native-born citizen. Aliens can
buy, sell, and hold land. :A 'complete Systka•of regisfey
established in every county, and undoubted titles to freehold
property are easily and cheaply procured.
Lands can be purchased from the Gavernment in blocks of
50,000 acres, at,one half dollar or 2s. Id, sterling per acre, in
lots of 100 or 200,, at 70 cents, or 2s. wad. sterling per acre for
cash, or $1 00 (4s. sterling) per acre, payable in four years.
The lands are of all qualities, and in ail parts of the province.
,tringent laws for the special protection of emigrants are in
force. Government Emigration Agents are stationed at
Quebec, Montreal; Ottawa, Kingston, Toronto, and Hamilton*
and Crown Lands' Agents in all the county towns, through
whom •purchases can be effected, and reliable information
obtained as to price and quality:
The population in Canada us 1848 was 1,315,500, and in
1858, 2,590,700; Showing that it nearly doubled in ten years.
The assessed value of real and personal property, as ascertained'
by assessors under oath, has increased dnring the sa e period
in a m'scli grg4ter proportion than the POpifratiOn- , •
Emigrants proceeding to Canada, who are anxious for
information as to. routes, distances,' and •ratPs of conveyance to
their several places of destination, can obtain the same by
applying to the Agent, personally or by letter.
