Excerpt from Echoes From the Backwoods, Vol. 1 of 2

Owing to the diffusion of information, by means of numerous publications respecting our other northern colonies, the stream of emigration has been directed that way; so that, though some thousands who have left their homes in the Old World in search of new abodes annually find their way to the shores of this our nearest colony, yet few, and those of the most indigent class only, remain. In Canada, moreover, where public works have been of late years carried on, the government and private companies have held out strong inducement to emigrants by as sisting them to procure lands; while the great public enterprises continually going on in the United States attract the great majority of the labouring classes, especially Irish, who eventually become settlers.
