4.4.1 OFFICE,
WEAVER BrILDINGB, BRUNSWICK STREET.
Liveool, March 20th, 18E0.
NOTICE 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 hay 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 them
to carry their intentions into effect.
Parties interested in the mineral 'resources of Canada are
informed that Maps, showing the position of the Mineral
Tree* can be soen 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 et-
plore any unconceded land belonging to the Government for
Copper, Lead, Iron, 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 lee, at the rate of six shillings
and threepence per acre. Further information may be obtained
at this office.
As maw,.
opir-

As many persons, otherwise well informed, entertain erroneous
Anions respecting the Government and condition of Canada,
le following facts are submitted for their consideration :
Canada enjoys perfect religious, 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-bouts are sub-
jected to close and constant Government inspection. Roads
macadamised, gravelled, planked, and turnpiked, 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 years' residence in Canada entitles a foreigner to all
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.
Lands can be purchased from the Government in blocks of
50.000 acres, at one half dollar or 2s. Id. sterling per acre, in
lots of 100 or 200, at 70 tents, or 2s. Wad. sterling per acre for
cash, or 61 00 (4s. sterling) per acre, payable in tour years.
The lands are of all qualities, and in all parts of the province.
Stringent 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 in 1848 was 1,315,500, and in
1858, 2,500,700, showing that it nearly doubled in ten years.
The assessed value of real and personal property, as ascertained
by assessors under oath, has increased during the sa e period
in a much greater proportion than the population.
Ethigrants proceeding to Canada, who are anxious for
information as to routes, distances, and rates of conveyance to
their several places of destination, can obtain the same by
appiying to the Agent, personally.or by letter.
