Entre ; which commence within a few miles front the Villa

de la Concepcion, and at about one hundred and twenty miles in a
direct line from the City of Buenos Ayres, and two hundred miles

siderable portion of the finest part of the Peninsula. They are

Uruguay and the Parana, which effectually protect the Province
from the predatory incursions of the Indians. Vessels of one
hundred and fifty tons burthen, navigate both these Rivers to the
shores of the Settienients. The country is undulating and diversi-
fied with wood ; the soil is a rich black mould, of which the Asso-
ciation possess upwards of a million of acres ready to receive the
plough without any preparation. The climate is similar to that of
the South of France. Both coil 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 principally
from distant countries.
A certain number of young farming men, of good character, if
healthy and strong, with their wives, if married, and not eiceeding
one child with each couple (unless at their own cost), will be con-
veyed to the Settlements and the expenses 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 Asso-
ciation with good and sufficient food and clothing, and with neces-
sary building materials, and agricultural stock. These advances
will be continued for 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 them-
selves, or by the Agents of the Associatitni, whose duty it is to
convey such produce to the best markets, and to account faithfully
for the proceeds. This engagement the Association guarantees.

conveyance of passengers.. The expense of the voyage and provi-
sions varies, but averages about £lll for each adult. Children under
fourteen Teats of age, are charged one half ; and under seven, one
' third the price of adults. The voyage out is generally performed
with a fair wind in two months.
Families who are taken out and established at the expense of the
Auceiation, will hold their lands on lease, each family fur so
long as the man, his wife and children, and the survivor of them,
shall lives
Families *lid pay for their passage dut and establish themselves
free of expense to the Association, will have the land conveyed to
theta and their representatives for mes in the manner of freehold.
in either use, Weever, they will be subject to a reserved rent,
varying from 6d. to Bs. per acre, according to the situation. The
land is free from tythesand taxes.
As thole returns arise, the Settlers will be required to repay the'
above advances by easy instalments. and with A 5 per cent. Interest
thereon, or the value of the advances and rent will be received from
them in produce or labour.
Tice Farms willhe sold as Fteeholds, free from rent, for fifteen
tears purchase of the annual rent required on lease, provided the
purchase be made before the letting ; but if, after a man have rented
a farm be be desirous of buying it as freehold, he may do so within
bevels years, at twenty years' purchase ache annual rent.
Grazing Farms, varying in extent from one thousand to twenty
thousand acres, properly enclosed and watered, will also be let to
persons who pay their passage out, and shew that they have the
means to stoat such farms.

ONSiOn stn three hundred acres of land, and fifty head of cattle, and
fifty rffit, an the credit of each share paid up, and may hold such
land en lease at an annual rent, until a general division of the land

farming, and preparing and working leather, will be most useful.
Other tradesmen must be cautious not to go nut prematurely.
Gentlemen of small income may find an acceptable abode is
these Settlements. The cheapness of provisions; and of horses and
their keep, the profusion and variety of game and fish ; the cheer-
fulness of the scenery, and the salubrity of the climate, offer mate-
rials which they may avail themselves of with advantage, and upon
whicb, aided by a library and other institutions intended to be esta-
blished, they may form an agreeable society.
Otters, Surveyors, and Workmen, are gone out to make prepa-
rations for those who are to follow ; bat it is not intended to send
any other Settlers out to the above destination, until August or Sep-
tember next. As that period approaches, the particular time of
