HINTS TO EMIGKANTS. 
Ixix 
however, that an emigrant has taken this rational 
view of his situation, he should determine on his 
pursuits, and allow nothing but absolute cer- 
tainty of better fortune to turn him aside. Men, 
however, landing at Sydney, in their eagerness 
for information get bewildered, give up their 
original plans, adopt new and uncertain specu- 
lations, trifle away both their time and their 
money, and ultimately ruin themselves. An 
individual who goes to New South Wales for the 
purpose of settling, should not remain in Sydney 
a day longer than is necessary for the arrange- 
ment of his affairs. Every shilling spent there 
is thrown away. The greatest facility is given 
by the different depaidments of the Colonial 
Government to the settlers ; and it is entirely 
his own fault if he trifles away his time in search 
of information elsewhere than at the fountain- 
head, or if he trusts to any other opinion than 
his own, supposing him experienced as to the 
quality of the land he may fix upon. Let him 
be speedy in his selection, and fix himself upon 
his allotment as soon as possible. Instead of 
overstocking his farm, or employing more la- 
bourers than he can afford to keep, let him be 
satisfied with a gradual increase of his stock.
