Liverpool Journal of Commerce.
AS already indicated in our columns, the
prospects of immigration from the port of
Liverpool this season are most encourag-
ing, and this impression is deepened by
not only the reports received from all
parts of the United Kingdom, but from
other countries out of which the CONT
mental emigration element is usually
drawn. A feature of the movement is
that the class of persons leaving our
shores is in the main composed of such as
are specially adapted for the opening up
of new country,
FARMERS AND AGRICULTURAL LABoRERS
forming a large contingent. 1t would
seem, too, that Manitoba and the recently
surveyed portions of the Canadian North
west are receiving much attention, and
the enticements are such that the prefer
ence for these parts is more likely to in
crease than diminish. In illustration of
this it may be mentioned that the Allan
mail steamer Sandman, which sailed last
week, took out 276 passengers, the bulk Of
whom
and from their appearance were the very
ideal of what settlers going to a new coun-
try ought to be. The causes which have
contributed to this exodus are unfortu-
nately only too well known, successive bad
harvests in this country having rendered
it necessary that the farming class should
select their fields for the exercise of their
industry; and where could they turn their
more earnestly than to region the natural
fertility of which is so remarkable that it
is computed cereals can be grown for
FIFTY SUCCESSIVE YEARS
without manure. Tois has been brought
out in the official pamphlets issued and ex-
tensively circulated among agriculturalists
by authority of the Canadian government
and there can be no reason to doubt the
truth of the statement. Another import
ant element in connection with the move
ment to Manitoba and the Northwest is
that the greater proportion of the emil
grants are of a comparatively well-to-do
class who, as land can be had on almost
nominal trims, are not likely to be con-
tent with
THE FREE GRANT OF 160 ACRES.
Besides it being understood that the Ca
madam government free grant lands in the
nearer parts of the province have been
pretty largely occupied, the lands remain
ing unsold of the Hudson Bay and other
companies will find ready purchasers. In
tending settlers will also find not little
encouragement from the extraordinary
rapidity with which the. Canadian Pacif C
railway is being constructed, as they will
thus be furnished with the means
speedily removing their produce to mar
ket from remote parts.
IT IS WORTHY OF NOTICE
that, although it is expected England will
supply by far the greatest number of emil
grants to Canada this season, yet appear
ances are that Germans and Scandina-
VANS who have hitherto chiefly patronized
the Western states of America, are now
beginning to turn their attention also to
the Canadian prairie lands; and, from re-
cent reliable information from Canada, it
appears that Scandinavians IN tolerably
large numbers have already located
themselves along the line of the Canadian
Pacific, and their labor has been freely
availed of in the building of that road,
which at the present time is finished to a
point
ABOUT QUO MILES WEST OF WINNIPEG.
The coal beds adjoining the route of the
Canadian Pacific railway occupy an area
of 10000 square miles. An idea of the ex-
tent of some OF the mines may be gathered
from the following: Belly River mine,
100000 tons; Grassy Island, Bow river
100000 tons; Horseshoe Bend, 100000
tons; Blackfoot crossing, 100000 tons
Total, 24,000,000 tons. Mr.. Dawson, the
eminent geologist, who has been on a
visit to the mines CT Ignite coal in Ger
many and Austria, pronounces the coal OF
the Canadian Northwest as superior te
that found
ON THE EUROPEAN CONTINENT.
While the trains of many of the railways
south of the international boundary line
between Canada and the United State:
were recently delayed by the blockading
of the lines with snow, the trains of the
Canada Pacific railway were always in
regular time-the line being clear through
out. The yield of crops at Edmonton, 6
point about 1000 miles northwest from
Winnipeg, is reported for 1882 as follows
Oats, so bushels per acre; wheat, AZ
bushels, and barley 35 bushels-the latter

THERE ARE NOW 207 PosToFFIcEs
established throughout Manitoba and the
Canadian Northwest. The winter seems t.
have little effect in checking land sales il
Manitoba. The Land corporation of Can
ada and the Canada Northwest Land com
pany, in their joint ventures in that coun
try, seem to be meeting with unprecedented
success. Their share of the town sites al
ready sold amounts to $318,S56, and thei
sales of farming lands to 1927 SOC, O.
| $646,462. As they still have three-fourth
of the new capital city, besides their inter
ests in other town sites, in hand, and hav
recently acquired all the odd-numberet
sections in southern Manitoba, the pros
poets seem to be beyond expectation.
