The first removals will be the settlements in the province of
Entre Rios ; which commence within a few miles from the
Villa de la Concepcion, and at about 120 miles in a direct line
hart the city of Buenos Ayres, and 200 miles from the city of
4'1°44 Video. These settlements occupy a considerable por-
ti of the finest part of the peninsula. They are inclosed by
tts° great branches of the Rio de la Plata, viz. the Uruguay
middle Parana, which effectually protect. the province from the
depredatory incursions of the Indians. Vessels of 150 tons
burthen, navigate both these rivers to the shores of the settle-
ments- The country is undulating and diversified with wood,
the soil is a rich black mould, of which the association possess
upwards of a million of acres ready to receive the plough with•
out any preparation. The climate is similar to that of the
south of France. Both soil and climate are favourable for the
growth of wheat and other grain, but the natives are averse to
agricultural labour, and procure their supplies of flour princi-
pally from distant countries.
A certain number of young farming men, of good character,
if healthy and strong, with their wives, if married, and not ex-
ceeding one child with each couple (unless at their own cost),
will be conveyed to the Settlements, and the expences of their
voyage will be advanced by the Association.
Each family will be put in possession of an enclosed farm of
fifty acres, and they will be supplied from the stores of the As-
sociation with good and sufficient food and clothing, and with
necessary building materials, and agricultural stock. These
advances will be continued or three years, should the Settlers
be unable to provide for themselves out of their own resources
for so long a period.
The produce of the farms may be sold by the individuals
themselves, or by the agents of the Association, whose duty it
is to convey, such produce to the best markets, and to account
faithfully for the proceeds. This engagement the Association
guarantees.
The Settlers will be conveyed in ships fitted up expressly for
the conveyance of passengers. The expence of the voyage
and provisions varies, but averages about 181. for each adult.
Children under 14 years of age, are charged one half ; and un-
der seven, one third the price of adults. The voyage out is ge-
nerally performed with a fair wind in two months.
Families who are taken out and established at the expcnce of
the Association, will bold their lands on lease ; each family for
so long as the man, his wife and children, and the survivor of
them, shall live.
Families who pay for their passage out, and establish them-
selves free of expence to the Association, will have the land
conveyed to them and their representatives for ever, in the
manner of freehold. In either case, however, they will be
subject to a reserved rent, varying from 6d. to 2s. per acre,
teeording to the situation. The land is free from tythes and
(axes.
As their returns arise, the Settlers will be required to repay
the above advances by easy instalments, and with 5/. per cent.
interest thereon, or the value of the advances and rent will be
received from them in produce or labour.
The Farms will be sold as Freeholds, free from rent, for 15
lisears' purchase of the annual rent requir on lease, provided
Purchase be made before the letting ;ed but it, after a man
lied rented a farm he be desirous of buying it as a freehold, he
may do so within seven years, at twenty years' purchase of the
annual rent.
Grazing Farms, varying in extent from one thousand to '
teemY thousand acres, properly enclosed and watered, 'will also
be,_lefl to persons who pay their passage out, and show that they
have the means to stock such farms.
Shareholders in the Capital of the Association may receive
Possession of three hundred acres of land, and fitly head of
cattle, and fifty sheep, on credit of each share paid up, and may,
hold such land on lease, at an annual rent, until a general divi-
Edon of the land take place.
Artificers of every kind may establish themselves advantage-
Cul;,„Y on these Settlements • but at first, those in the line of
"umg, farming, and preparing and working leather, will be
ost useful. Other tradesmen must be cautious not to go out
Prematurely.
