It is now well understood that the advantages of going to the United States are not so great as they were. The large towns are over-peopled, tiacles are crowded, house rent and clothing are dear, and the burden of tantion is enormous. In Canada scarcely any of these evils are yet ex- perienced` Magnicent territories lie waiting for the occupation of man. It was high time that the Government made use of the vast riches in their possession. By an Act recently passed lettleth in Ontario areentitled to receive l0o-ac c lots of land free of chat-ge-subject, it may be presumed, to the usual condition with reference l to theproper clearing and cultivation ofthe soil.

Not every man is able to t 11 the soil, but where tillers of the soil go, lap bourera and artisans must soon follow. With tt_vo immense elds of labour open, only ten days distant from England, it should not be diicult to diminish the stress upon our market. The Canadian Government cannot be too lib:rs.l in the temptations held out to English emigrnnts- since every? shipload of wot-kingmen makes the country richer The United States Government was sagncious enough to see that from the t-st, I and hence the wonderful position which the coun- 'I try has gained within the present century."

He also stated that he had receiv- ed no interest at any time on deposits of board moneys. This statement seemed so extraordinary, that I immediately addressed lir Denison a letter in reference to our conversation, and upon o:ber matters, oi which the following is an extract : Toronto, Dec. 17, I868. R. L. Denison, Esq Treasurer Board of Ag- riculture: Sir, Refer ring to our conversation this morning, I would,be glad to learn from you whether I rightly understood you to say that you kept no separate bank account for the Board of Agriculture and Agricultural Associa- tion; and that at this moment, while you hold yourself personally respond iblo for any balance whicb migh appear from the accounts to the credit of the asaociatio , such balance was not deposited in any bank, nor available in cash at any moment. If I so correctly understood you, I beg to in- quire whether the Board of Agriculture hold any securities from you, and if l0,l1l0 names and amounts of such securities. at n;-I .1... .1...

It will be noticed by the statement of 1867,` that Mr Denison put in an account during the year for $6,338, being commission of one per cent on` moneys disbursed by him to the Agri- enltnnl societies of the Province for the previous fteenyeara. This claim was brought before the rd at a recent meeting, but vna disallowed y It, upon an` ground that such a if made at a'1,.abonld have been made annua ly. Inatoad, an mm of $1,100 voted to tho troaIu:e`r'for extra lamina .a...:.._ --u - uuuua a mum unmucu ul quA,U-H lb`. Out of this amount, payments have been mai since the 30th uil... as will be seen by sniement accoln['l.nying this report, to the amount of $1,108 76, fer which vouchers to the amount of $141 66, as indicated by the statement, have been pro-iuced. There remain to be paid, as per statement annexed, pI'iZ'8 to the amount of $|,_460 50. ' In relation to payments during the last year, for which no vouchers have been produced, it. in groper to remark that the practice he: been to rend the secretary : certicate with the money to she person receiving a prize, with the request 1 that it be returned, having the receipt endorsed npon it. Delays sometimes occur in making the return, no that some, if not elf, of the vouchers may yet be forthcoming. Hnvino ma.`-on-I.-in-A `I-.- L..I-..-.. .- .n x -- ` nun; get. UUIUIIIICDIIIIIIE. Having ascertained the balance to the qredit of the board, an shown by the accounts 0` the 30th November, I addressed n_ letter to Mr eni- son, asking to be permitted to examine his btnk book, had to have explanulionl. in relation to the manner in which the bunk account of the heard is kept, and whether any interest has reoeiv- ' ed on denoaizs. which, r-Inn:-inliu :.. .n.- _- -- amount: on sucn securities. I nd that the balance which ought to he available fr..m the books and vouchers submitted to you is a very large one, upwards of $12,000, including the balanco unpaid of the Paris exhi- bition appropriation. It would greatly facilitate me in reporting to the Commissioner of Agricol- ture toknow thlt the sum is available in some bank to the credit of the board, and to have pro- duced the bunker : certificate of the fact.

Although it does not prope.-ly come within my duty, I take the liberty of calling` your at- tenticn to the manifest inconvenience which re- sults from the ptnctice, hitherto followed, of pay- in 3 prizes months and even years after the close of the exhibition at which they were nwnxded. There is no good reason why all prizes should not be paid within a couple of months, at the furthest, after the exhibition ; and it would greatly simplify the accounts, closing up each year`: txunsnctiuns within the year, if the rule were made absolute that no prize! would be paid unless demanded before the let December foilowing the exhibition at which they were ttwerled.
