New Zealand -- Emigration and immigration; Scots New Zealand Land Company
(most frequently in unwholesome occupations) in a country where a
property-class have in a manner secured every thing to themselves,
to the condition of proprietors in a most beautiful, fertile, and
salubrious country, is surely a sufficient motive for exertion. An
association of twenty working men, by subscribing each 2s. weekly,
can transplant two, or with a family, one of the members yearly; and,
aided by the increase of the value of their colonial property, in the
course of six years, or with families, eight or ten years, the whole
could be proprietors residing on their own estates, the value of
which every passing year would increase for ages to come.
P. M., _Chairman_.
