GOVERNMENT Pa ,TECTION TO EMIGRANTS FOR CANADA
AND THE UNITED STATES.—As SOOR as an emigrant ship
reaches the emigrant station in the St. Lawrence, at
Grosse lite, a few miles blow Qu bee, she is b arded by
the Government Medical Offic,r. If there are any sick
on board they are landel and remain at the hospital, at the
expense of the Government, until they are cured. Imme-
diately on the ship's arrival at Quebec, Mr. Buchanan, th-
Government Emigration Agent, goes on board. He ine
quires into all complaints, and EQEI3 that all the conditions
of the Act of Parliament fur protecting emigrants have
been strictly complied with. This he is able to do in a
most E ffee ive manner, as, whenever an emigrant ship
leaves a British port for Quebec, the Government Etnigra-
ticn Officer at the port forwards to him, by mail steamer,
a list of every passenger, with their names, ages, sex,
trade, &c. This list is always received by Mr. Buchanan
a fortnight before the shi/s arrival. He thus possesses
every particular that may be useful to him in protecting
the emigrants, and directing them to where they can at
once get suitable erupt yment. If there be any just cause
of complaint against the captain of a ship, justice is
afforded by a very summary law passed for the purpose,
and Mr. Buchanan himself superintends the prosecuti ,r.
The Gover, ment of Canada has issued a pamphlet upon the
resources of the country and the prospects in store for the
industrious of all classes who desire to make it the land
of their adoption. Teis pamphlet, as. well as full par-
ticulars of the Through Basking system, by which emi-
gi ants aro protected from the time of their landing
until they reach their destination, together with maps
of the Canadian Railways, showing their connection
with those of the United States, continue to be issued
gratuitously to all who apply for them, personally or by
letter, at the cffices of the Grand Trunk Railway of
Canada, 21, Old Broad-street, Londor, ES).; or here to
