'lhat our Government. have been remiss in this duty, is also clmr. Mind, I do not say that the Canadian , Government have not spent money enough in starting emigrants to this: country, but that when they have ar»; rived here. a sufficient representation and exhibition of the country, are not put prominently before their eyes, so as to induce them to seek out and settle down in a home within the confines of' this vast Dominion: Let me put this matter clearly ; Induced by one of our agents in England, an old country farmer with £1000 sterling in his pock- et, embarks for lenada. Fair wind and weather soon lands him upon ou.‘ eastern shores, and as he travels west- ward, his eager eye constantly heholds attractive advertisements, descriptive maps, and the most liberal representa- tions of the cheapness, fertility, and wealth promotingr resources of the West- ern States of America. Nor is this all, as thetraveller alights at the Union Station, Toronto, one of the first things that attract his attention, is an exhibit of farm productions, tastefully and in- telligently displayed to his view. Wheat, oats, barley, corn, and seeds of every diseription, are shown to the best advantage in a handsome glass case, and aft: 1' closely examining,r the collectâ€" ion, the moneyed emigrant quickly dc- cides to examine the soil, the fertility of nhich is so apparent in its varied pror duetions, and ol which he has already read such famous accounts. Purchas- ing a cheap ticket, the now much in- telested agriculturisc finds himself en route for the west, and soon lands in Decotah or Kansas, exchanges his Hue;- lish soveriens for the wide prairie fields, and forthwith rtjoiees in the promise and latitude of’liis American home.
