From the Quebec Papers received yesterday, to the
27th October:—

" BOUNDARY QUESTION.-It would appear by the fol-
lowing extract from a State of Maine Paper of Monday,
that a part of the disputed territory is filling up quickly,
upon easier terms than any Government land can be ob.
twined in Canada. It is but justice, however, to observe,
that the Aroostook Valley is settling under a law which
applies to every other part of the State, passed 23.1 March,
1838.

" It is now believed to be a well established fact,that this
section of the Maine presents uncommon advantages for
e.griculture, exceeding that of any other portion of our
State, and probably New England. Settlers have already
commenced, in nearly every township in which settling
land is now offered for sale; with the present road facili-
ties, and numerous other advantages, there can be no
doubt that the current of emigration set in in this direc
tion will very soon fill up the fertile valey of the Aroos-
took."
