PROSPECTUS.
_ . _

The large number of emigrants who have left Great Britain for
the United States and the Canadas in the past year has suggested
the idea of an Association for the purpose of affording increased
facilities to those intending to emigrate towards gaining for them
a location there with the aid of the smallest expenditure in acquir-
Ing it.
This Association, having already formed a very extended con-
nexion in the United States and the Canadas, proposes to confine
its operations exclusively to these countries, and chiefly to the
farmer.
It is found that nine-tenths of those who emigrate to the United
States are composed of small capitalists, who, for the meet part,
have barely sufficient money to meet the expenses of the voyage
._ltUd the purchase of a location. To such parties loss of time
a' a great disadvantage, and the expenses incurred in
ee'lcell of a location too frequently absorb their small
means. They are in general unacquainted with the
geography of that vast country and its varied resources. Titles
1.0 land, when they do not come direct from the Government, are
ellen defective, and the unaided emigrant runs a great risk of not
being able to fix himself in that portion of the United States where
~
previous knowledge could be turned to the best account. These
in-
duce many other considerations equally important will naturally in-
ilee emigrants to avail themselves of the agency and place themselves
Under the auspices of an Associaticn having the disposal of lands
more or less extensive in every State of the Union, and respecting
Which every authentic information has been obtained and can be fur-
l:Ushed the emigrant beforehand.
The choice of a state is often of much importance. The quality of
the land, its title guaranteed, its contiguity to markets, the cost of
labour and value of produce, facilities of transport, as well as the
climate and the healthiness of the district—all these are of great con-
sequence. In fact, a prudent emigrant should endeavour to possess
himself with as much information before leaving home, as, if acting
?II his own experience, he could barely hope to acquire atter a
eligthened residence in the country.
In addition to this, the Association, by its arrangements for the
voyage out, and transport of the emigrant from the port of debark-
ation to the interior, will enable the emigrant to economize his
Thearis so that neither his time nor his substance would be wasted
°afore his industry began.
The plan the Association proposes is chiefly to dispose of lands on
cornmission ; not to speculate in lands by purchase and re-sale on
its own account, but to afford the emigrant the benefit of its dealing
for the land, either with Government or proprietors. Its extended
connexion, information, and establishment will be placed at the
service of the emigrant who seeks a new home under its directions.
The Association agrees beforehand to sell at cost price, adding merely
hereto a commission, graduated proportionally to the number of
acres in each farm or location, founded on the cost and expenses
attending his transport to the spot.
The lands which will pass through the hands of the Association
from the original owner to the ultimate occupier will he for the most
Part in block ; their cost price per acre to the Association will be
Much below that for which an individual could procure a single loca-
tion in any of the States where Government land is not to be had ;
the emigrant will in this respect alone have a direct advantage.
When he adds to this his saving on his outward expenses and journey
to the spot, his loss of time, the disappointments often incurred on
the other side, he will find the actual outlay Der acre of his acquisi-
tion much lass by a direct purchase through the Association, whose
arrangements will enable it to render him a service he would fail in
attempting for himself.
It is a case of the commonest occurrence with those who go out to
the. United States to waste all their means and small resources with-
out ever arriving at the object of their wishes. Too many are thus
left for the time destitute, and forced to become labourers, instead of
Proprietors of land.
It is for the purpose of enabling the uninformed emigrant of small
teens to avoid this almost inevitable consequence that this Asso-
ciation is formed ; to advise him before departure of the advantages
and disadvantages of settlement in each state, to assist him in the
means
of a location, and to inform him on what point to direct his
means and efforts. By this means he can ascertain to a trifle the
cost of his own and his family's removal. He will be told how he
should stock his land, what implements to purchase ; and in fact h
may acquire a year's experience in advance as to the best mode of
ti""lng himself to account by the instructions to be given him
,lough the officers of the Association on the other side.
some of the newer States, where labour is not abundant, the
Vociation will undertake to supply the emigrant with labour, by
e„",ering such inducements as will secure it. These will form the
ct of special schein ‘s of settlement, which the Association will
-"`ifY from time to time, and the price of land per acre will range
ttecerdingly.
The owners of tracts of land in the United States will find it ad-
vantageous to avail themselves of the Association, it being the in-
tention of the Association to select the most suitable occupiers and
eahlvators.

tire quantity in any one block. These reserved lots will be disposed
f; afterwards at their real market value, and without reference (as
t
the case of the first emigrants) to prime cost.
The settlement of considerable tracts of land, and the voyage
thereto and location thereon of a number of families, will give rise
1„:nallY considerations wkich cannot be easily enumerated, but, to
ere success, cannot be overlooked by the Association. The phy-
tncal Wants of the emigrant will require medical attendance on him
r- the spot. Provision will be made likewise for his spiritual corn
_ort, by providing a clergyman, in conformity with the religious per-
suasion of of each hundred families; and, as it not unfrcquently hap-
ens that many families depart from the same neighbourhood, in all
cases Where practicable, the choice of the pastor will rest with the
emigrants themselves.
