3rd. Colonisation. This scheme we have 

 said has three objects in view. 1st. The reliev- 

 ing us of our surplus population. 2nd. The 

 reduction of our national debt ; and 3rd. The 

 improvement of our colonies and the proper 

 settlement of our emigrants in them. In this 

 national work our industry is also divided into 

 three great divisions, corresponding to the above 

 three objects of the scheme. 1st. We have the 

 industry of the mother country at home, re- 

 ciprocating with the reduction of our national 

 debt. 2nd. We have our naval industry in 

 conjunction with the removal of our surplus 

 population from our shores to our colonies. 

 3rd. Our colonial industry busy in providing 

 for the wants of this surplus population. Each 

 of those divisions must be properly organized 

 before any attempt is made at a commence- 

 ment. The following will convey a general 

 idea of the machinery of such a scheme. 



Let the mother country be divided into 

 districts, one or more counties to each district, 

 according to the number of their inhabitants.
