Concluding that some thousands are similarly sit

tion Society be established, based upon the same
rules and regulations The following may be
taken as an outline for a Prospectus:
EMIGRATION SOCIETY.

a comparatively small outlay, and persons in easy
grade of life may establish themselves or tnelr

every class OF society, VIII receive iresh stimulus
bv this Association which will raise the means IN
a ready manner from expectant emigrants, 70

terprise. roo

If the above succeeds, of which there can be no
doubt, other tracts can be taken up and thuS the
overpopulated cities in the east may be provided

The payments must be fixed according the value Of
/ The land
RSy~ The above scheme embodies some
excellent ideas, though we think it might be
improved. The great difficulty in such cases
is to secure the services of agents or actuar-
les of knorn integrity and capacity. 1.-THE
Working Men had dozen such at their
command, they might very surely andspeel-
lily improve their general condition.
