Of  ���������course there is something radically wrong to  produce this evidence of unproductiveness in  the colony.   The land laws are quite liberal  , enough.. 'A man may pre-empt 160 acres and  ..pay for them when he is able to dp-so at the  rate of SI per-acre.;: Free., grants'might stimulate settlement, but we do not think that the  absence of a free grant system is the cause of  .' ihe tardy settlement on our agricultural lands  True it is that in the United States free grants  are rapidly drawing from their native homes  thousands of Germans and.Norwegians, but  we lack tbe: conditions that would make the  free grant system effectually operative in bur;  /case.   We: hzye hotthe agencies at;workin  *Bnrope :hy. which the! people are ��������� made acquainted/with, tbe advantages /offered in a  : new country, and, what is of still greater im-  " ^ort-ance;we have no means for bridging  jmigrants. to/the colony ^x^aMtibjnsly and  cheaply. \ In our present: isolatipny neither  . free grants nor emigrant; agencies could do  much toward making radically, right what is  radically wrongi It is said, that thousands  oi people bave come to the Colony within  the course 6f tbe past ten years with the in-  tention ot settling, but they were lured away  by the 'superior attractions offered in tbe  neighboring 'territories; - Doubtless this is in  a great measure.true, and there'Is something  [���������%"-ifrSiiUSWe ini&y perhaps arrive;at"the soiu-  'XX tion-'of--the-"mystery���������this something that is  -'radically wrong���������if we take a glance at'tbe  . conditions of our neighbors.   First, tbey have  had the control of tbeir own affairs, while in  this country one or two men have controlled  ours totally regardless of public  opinion.  When a man settles in the territory of our  neighbors he knows that he is bound to prosper if only be labors with ordinary prudence  and industry.   Increase of population, the  various enterprises of individuals and aggre-  ..  gations of individuals, local, state and federal  .governments, all tend to make attractive tbe  spacious territory, and hence a ceaseless tide  of immigrants enriches the community.   That  ~   erico^  the phrase, we have a future before,us, is ever  present with the settler in the republic.   Indeed he has but to take up land to get rich,  because other people make it valuable for  him by the increase of industry and population.   Now, it is just the absence of this progressive^conditionwhich explains the some-  "'"' tjii ng that Is radically wrong in th is country.  : After carefully considering all the ciroum-  ��������� stances and conditions of British Columbia  '   the immigrant might truly say, it has a future  before it, but he might also with equal accuracy add, but it is a future indeed, to be en-  " joyed chiefly by a future and scarcely at all  by the present generation,  and  therefore  British Columbia won't do for me.   Such is  tlie conclusion derivable trom the aspect of  affairs in British Columbia at any period during tbe past ten years.   Men settle on land  not only for the sake of the profits of its cultivation, but also for the increased wealth it  brings through increase of value.   What we  v have said of the United States is almost equally applicable to Canada, and will be so to  British Columbia when she becomes part of  Canada.   It is no idle boast, no mere specious  argument advanced to favor onr Confedera-  ,   tion proclivities, but it is a fact proven hy  ;carefully; compiled : statistics, that  Canada  has/advanced more rapidly in population  an d. weal th ev en th an the very progressi ve  United States, in spite^ of Fenian-annexation  meetings and other ridiculous proceedings at  Quebec and elsewhere.   Land, cheap land  and free land, is the motive power that propels the European currents of emigration to  the shores of America, and ever since what  was radically wrong was made radically right  in Canada by the abolition ot just such government as we have in British Columbia, and  government by |the people substituted, the  cheap and free land policy, with emigration a-  gencies and cheap transport, has rapidly increased the population and wealth of the  country. A do-nbthing-and-don't-eare a-far-  thing-for-ypu form of government, like oprs,  and a do-something-or-quit form of government, like that of Canada, offera clear explanation, iu the difference between,the. two  systems, of the something that is radically  wrong in this colony. We.have not bad, as  the saying is, a future, before us." Until now,  when Confederation promises to give us popular government and direct communication,  we have bad few attractions to offer for permanent settlement.. True, land is cheap and  produce dear, but the future/the future, has  always been the decisive consideration, and  hence* production falls far short of the demand. Already, however; a ,cbange for the  better is apparent even though the great political change is only in a chrysalis condition^  aud what is radically wrong is beginning to  bo merged into what is radically right. Tbe  rich lands of the lower Fraser are being rapidly pre-empted.,.' Something like "'a future"  is dawning oh the country, and land that can  now be had for a dollar an acre, w.ill soon,  by the magical influences of overland railways, popular government, and the increased  importance, as a part of the Dominion, that  will attach to tbe;colony, become doubly,  trebly, a blind red times more'valuable, just  asit.does in Canada and the.United States.  .Meh.are beginning to:see that the great physical and political changes looming through  the vista of Confederation will quickly transform the hopeless future of the colony, as an  isolated community, -into,something like the  cheerful and busy aspect of affairs in Canada  arid the States. ; :"'/  Bobn*���������At Barkerville. on the 11th inst., to the wife  of A.

NoTuDQMA^The other day we observed  two men discussing in a very animated manner, when suddenly one called the other "a  g���������a d-rd Dutchman," at the same time expressing his opinion as to the expediency and  advisability of knocking out somebody's in-  tesupe&an a manner which indicated bis iread-  me8s.;!?^/foso; unless; his opponent wouldUm-  mediately, adopt a inbre hiimble tone; As  quick as lightning, if not agood deal quicker,  the little square-built Dutchmao, as he was  called, divested himself of his coat, rolled up  bis sleeves, threw his hair back, and struck  a regular pugilistic attitude, with a twinkling  eye and smiling lips. "Now, py Cheorgei"  he exclaimed," knog outmy cuts, iv you gan;  I'm a tamned Tudgman, am I? Py Cbeorge,  you zhall zee vether Vm a tamned Tudgmati!

The  broad, well-rounded cbest, the big muscle,  and the alacrity:with.which theHeligolahder  offered his "<mts" to be knocked out; seemed  to create a feeling, on -the part of his opponent, which is;frequently expressed by. the  phrase :* taken.down a peg/J and after a .few  remarks indicative of a disposition tov^get  eyco-witb him yeti"i the Heligqlander?s tall  "opponent strode off,' exclaiming at parting,  '* rii^haye you- up .afore the;JudgedX* To  b^irmit" you and the ���������hudge," was the res-  pohse/v--It-may: not be universally.known that  Heligoland is an island in the German Ocean,  and; one��������� of; the: fifty colonies: of the United  Kingdom.  Tub New, Strikes/��������� The Victoria c0.,  (Lowhee creek,); and the Discovery co.,  (Dragon creek;) hare each spent about two  years and considerable money... (for working  men) in their endeavors ro; prospect their  claims, and their enterprise would now appear to have reached the point where success  is certain. ��������� The strike on Dragon creek is the  most important as it will certainly lead to  the development of a large section of Cariboo  hitherto comparatively neglected. /Dragon  creek itself is considerably over four miles iu  length, and there are numerous creeks near  it which have scarcely ever been touched.  .Quietly arid; steadily the Discovery co. had  beeu working, firm in the belief that;when  once they reached bed-rock their "outlay; and  patience would be -compensated. Almost  immediately after their labor had demonstrated the existence of gold in paying .quantities, several other companies start mto existence and flock to the creek, which now  promises to become ah important addition to  the list of known gold-bearing channels. It  is the most important discovery made in Cariboo since Mosquito creek came into notice.  Those Letters.���������It may be remembered  that in tbe early history of British Columbia  as a colony, and as a gold-mining country, a  series of letters was written to sundry Jing-  lish and Canadian newspapers, in which the  gold cdeposits were particularly alluded to,  and a "rush" to the colony was the consequences. Among tbe.letter-writers was a  certain reverend gentleman, still ro the  colony, who was soundly abused by the disappointed good-for-notuings' who, # finding  that gold could, not be procured without a  wholesome exercise of patience and muscle  left the country in disgust. We understand  tbat it is the intention of tbis reverend personage to republish his letters m Canada, toother with a compendium of facts, to show  bow very nearly his statements and predicts as to the. mineral and agricultural  wealth of the colony have proven correct in  comparison with such facts.  ExrRESs.~The express arrived on Tuesday  and left on Thursday. Mr. T. Barry, from  the 150*>ile post, was tbe only amving_pas-  senger. Robert Orr, Jno. Martin, W.

No application will be received after the 10th November Mons/B. Deffis is well known in tbis  colony as an: efficient professor of languages.  Havin* had several years experience in teaching, his mode.of tuition will be found easy  and effective. This is a good opportunity  afforded miners to employ profitably the long  winter evenings,  EdvSentixki, : I would call the attention  of the people of Cariboo, and of Barkerville  in particular, to the importance of having a  sleigb road made to Dragon creek.   There  has been a good prospect from there, which  has been quite sufficient to cause a largehum*  ber.of claims to be taken up..and already,by  recording, leaves of absence,etc., the revenue  is in receipt ot seven or eight hundred dollars  from that creek alone, and quite sufficient to  justify the people in asking the government  to contribute money for a sleigh road to  Dragon creek  for this winter,- and  they  certainly  ought  to  grant  it, as they  are  the only on^s who have received any substantial benefits from it. as yet.   Such-a road  would open up a large^aection of country,  and facilitate access from Barkerville to Hard-  scrabble, Tom. Coulter, Nelson, Oro Fino,  Dead wood, and other creeks, ail of which  have contributed largely to the revenue and  would give much more if a sleigh road were  made, besides furnishing employment to a  large number of men who are now idle, because they cannot get supplies to their claims  A level track could be found down the valley  of Willow river, and men who are interested  on Dragon creek would guarantee to make a  good 6leighroad to that creek for three-Jum-'  dred dollars or less. ; ThereforevI trust that  the present opportunity to advance.the inter*  ests of the country will not be neglected.

William creek presents a dull aspect; but the  outlook' is very encouraging.' Good strikea  have been made ou Lowhee and.Dragon  creeks; a great deal more work will be dene  on Lightning creek this wiuter than last; the  Wave.rley.;tunnel-is- going; ah������������ad-welI-; the-  Ballarat tunnel is also coming up lively;  Canadian creek looks more promising than  heretofore; French creek will soon tell i!a  tale ; and last, though, perhaps first in importance, the te^t quartz mill.is expected to arrive on Tuesday, next. Aleantitne. water is  plentiful, and a great many opened ciaiins  will be worked toward mid-winter.       / ���������  Gone.���������Among the recent'departures was  Mr. Taliesiii Evaus, who had been mining in  Cariboo for,several years.;,;Althongh;.h������e:: was  one of the:most unlucky among^jg ifhlucky  on esr he d 0 es n 011 ea ve n s vv i th -any pron"n h?  ciamientos against Cariboo, as is too often;  the case with those who have failed to secure  a prize in the mining lottery, but lie is still of  opinion that Cariboo is one of the richest  mining countries in the world. "u Fare thee  well."  The Weather. ��������� Since -the snow commenced falling, over a we^k ago. the weather  has remained wintry with slight exception.  There is still plenty .of water running in the  various neighboring creeks and gulches, and  it"-, is probable that the deep diggings will  bave the. advantage of a good sluice head for  a long time yet. The ground was thoroughly  drenched before tbe snow and frost set in. and  all the spriogs ia the hillsides. are running  quite freely.  Removal.--Mr. P. McEntee has commenced  work in his new o'nd lanre shop in Barkerville, near tho theatre, where he will carry.  on his blacksmith business at the same rates'  as before. He only charges $3 per set for  borse-shoeing, and all other kinds of blacksmith work at corresponding rates.  AcctnEXT.���������In the early part of this week  an. accident occurred to Mr. Davis, of the  Van Winkle CO., Lightning creek. The walk*  ing beam of the pump jammed him severely,  but, fortunately, he escaped without any'  broken bones.   He will be laid up for a few  daysv; ���������/ V./\ ���������.' '������������������' /.I  Another Churcet.���������The Rev. Jas. Reynard  is having a church built at the, lower part of  the town. Judging fromthe nature and extent of the work already done, we should say  that the church will be a large and substantial edifice.  For the New Diggings.���������On the 2Glh ulfc.,  Byrnes & co., 7 men; on 30th ult., Sylvester  6 co., 3 men; on the 1st inst., McMartin & co.,  7 men; on 4th inst., Davis & co., 5 men; altogether 22 men, left for Peace river, and aro  amply supplied with provisions and "tools for  a year.  Wood.���������Several men have commenced cnt-  tin������- wood for fuel since the snow fell, so that  we������are likely to enjoy the benefits of an  active competition in the wood business during: the winter,   -  The Quaktz Mill.���������It may be expected  here in the course of next week. We understand that Capt. Wright would make a special  trip with the steamer Victoria to bring it  from Soda creek.
