WE are glad to find that the emigration from
Ireland begins to be more extensively carried on
to British America than it has hitherto been.
Until very lately New York was the great point
of attraction to which every Irish farmer and
peasant bent his course ; now Quebec appears to
be gaining the preference, and we hear that several
ships are fitting out in Queenstown for the convey-
ance of emigrants to different parts of our North
American colonies. It is true that, for several
years past, emigration has been going on from
Ireland to these localities, but we think it will be
found that more than three-fourths of the Irish

emigrants betook themselves to the United States.
They all flocked to New York, under the impres-
sion that they had there a better chance of getting
immediate work ; but they will find that, at pre-
sent, labour is as much in demand in every part of
British America as it is in the United States, pro-
bably more so ; consequent, no doubt, in some
measure, on the formation of the railroads now in
progress throughout the country, and wherever
the communication is thus opened up, cultivation
is certain to follow. The three several provinces
of Canada, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick, in
our opinion, offer every advantage which they
could desire to those emigrants who are either not
inclined, or have not the means, to seek a new
home at the antipodes. Waste and unoccupied
land is as yet abundant in these provinces ; and,
from the well-known fertility of the soil, is certain
to reward the skill and labour of those who culti-
vate it. In wheat, especially, Canada is known to
be most productive ; and recent events show that
it is advisable to encourage its cultivation in our
own colonies, where it will be beyond the control
of an enemy and the contingencies of war. The
cultivation of wheat is known to have considerably
increased in Canada within the last three or four
years, and the colonists now see how much it is
to their advantage to encourage it, as they are
certain to find a ready and profitable market for
as much as they can export.

We see, in the increa number of emigrants
now turning their attention to the British colonies,
instead of to the United States, the most promis-
ing prospects to the colonies ; and we have little
hesitation in saying that, before many years elapse,
they will be among the most valuable possessions
of the British crown.—Shipping and Mercantile
