TO EMIGRANTS.- Emigrants who

TO insist upon being landed here; and not

captains, TO be put ashore. against their in
cEnations and against express agreements.
They may rest assured that, wih the en-
ception of points where they haze harbors

the facilities fer .landing are as good here
as atany other place on the lake; and there
has been no time daring the present sea-
son, whilst boats have been passing, but

do we'll to recollcct this, as it is only ncces-
sary that they should be determined, to
prevent the imposilions which are frequent
Iy'practised.
Passengers desiring to land here, either
TO remain or'to go into the country, need
have no fears for their comfort whilst here
