B.” Will you permit me to answer it so far as Victoria is concerned PAs the agent-general for that country in England, it is a part of my duty to administer the Immigration Act and the regulations made under it for the conduct of emigration from Europe to Victoria. The regulations at present in force provide for the assistance of persons nominated by tbeir friends hi the colony, who, upon payment of a small snm there, maylt; obtain passage warrants in favour of their nominees here, and they enable me to grant free passages to single women fit for domestic service. In this way nearly 400 people are sent ont to Melbourne every month.I hope to receive very shortly further regulations, under whioh the assistance given to emigration by the Government will be largely extended. The terms and conditions of this assistance will be published in all parts of the United Kingdom, so that no one need be ignorant of them. In the mean* time I am always prepared to give the fullest information concerning the condition and resources of Victoria to any one who may inquire of me either personally or by letter, and more than 100 local agents are furnished with the means of answering the inquiries put to them in their several districts.
