Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Hogg's Instructor, 1851, Vol. 6: New Series
We have colonies in abundance, in any one of which an industrious. Though poor, man may earn a tolerable living at once, and ere long attain to a quiet independence. In all these there are immense tracts of land belonging to the crown, which are at present utterly valueless, and can only become worth anything by the labour of man. Let thou sands of our poor but decent countrymen be transported to one or other of these colonies annually; let lands be allotted them, and a decent maintenance be provided for a year or two, by the same bounty which carried them thi ther, and at the end of that time they can shilt for them selves. Those who remain will then have more room. Such is the teaching of nature and common sense, has been the practice of nations in all past ages, and is that of families m the present.
