Considerable poise has been made in the political world latterly about the erec- tion of • new office by tie Ministry under tie desig.atioa of " The Bureau of Agri- culture." It is said that the object of forming the "Bureau," (what a nice name) r to usable Mr. Malcolm Cameron to take his seat is the Cabinet. lie has conscieetioes scruples aboat acceptieg the I'reside.cy of the Camel, though by so doing he could enjoy Motions cues digits - tate is the moat Modems meaner ; but wbea to the duties of a Preeideocy are added thew of a Berme of Agriculture, be will hare so objection, so we are led to ►.leve, to take hie seat at the bead of the Ceased. Some people may made at the idea of arrsagiag matters teas, bet in all sincerity we caa see an canoe for levity or objection. Mr. Cameros might Lave takes his seat o the Cabinet as simple Preaideat of the Commit, bat as he coo - sneered that the duties of that once were sot of so laborious a mature as to entitle him ix faro oexaciextia to X1000 a year, why there was potting for it but to make more work for him by making a new Bu- reau. Of course the duties of the Bureau are clearly defined, and a plan of action by which the interests of agriculture will be speedily promoted, is already prepared and only awaits the formal acceptance of the office by Mr. Cameron for its derelope- ment. That the agricultural interest is of paramount importance in Canada, no use coo deny ; consequently, whatever tends to promote that interest mast be of the utmost comequesoe to the inhabitants of all ranks and conditions. But we would venture to throw out a' t�ges�tioo by which the Bureau of Agri. culture miner be made an iastrurnest of vast and permanent utility. It is well kaown that the most serious drawback to the farsner's prosperity is the cost of la_ boor. Indeed, it is sometimes impossible for farmers to fed help enough to save their crops of grain and hay at any price ; and thus it not unfrequently happens that they suffer extensive losses, which would have been avoided bad there been a large sup- ply of laborers in the country To take sutb steps as would remove this drawback to the farmers's prosperity, by the intro- duction of a su6cient,number of agricultu- The Collins' 8tsomere which receive a rat labourert into the country, would in very large sum trona our Government for our own opinion be work which the Bu- reau of Agriculture might undertake with great prospects of conferring an immense benefit on the people of Canada. We de- pend for labourers io a great measure os immigration ; it is from this so0ree that our hitherto inadequate supply has been received, and it is quite manifest that we hate also to depend on it for the future.— It is to immigration that the United States are indebted for their rail -roads and canals. for their united and separate prosperity._ Ireland's loss has been their great gain ; and if any adequate attention had been paid to the subject by our Canadian au- thorities, a large proportion of the rim - grants who find their way to New -York and the Atlantic ports of the Union, would have sought a home on the more genial soil of Canada. The Province is miwepre- seated in Great Britain and Ireland, by parties interested in the shipping trade of the United States. These parties endea- vor by all possible means to direct the current of immigration towards the Atlan- tic ports and away from the St. Lawrence which is represented by them as exceed- ingly dangerous to navigate, and as being the theatre of many a frightful shipwreck and much loss of life. To do away with the false impressions thus sedulously made on the of the peasantry "at the Bureau minds of Agriculture should appoint Emigrant Agents in Dublin, Belfast, Lime- rick,and Waterford, who would make it their business to visit the country parishes at stated periods, and by addressing the people endeavor to convince those who are about to imiggr*aate of the advantages which they would dente from going to Canada in preference to the States. The instant an old countryman" settles down in Ca- nada be is on terms of political equality with the natives of the soil ; be can vote for a member of parliament, bold real es- tate and is eligible to office, on the same condition, as those who were born in the country. In tbe United States It is differ- ent. nacre the emigrant is an alien until be becomes naturalized, which cannot take place until he has resided for four years in the country and gone through certain forms which to some are very far from being agreeable. Besides, Canadians hare a fellow -feeling for the emigrant which the Yankee serer had and meter can bate.— We say this without calling in question for a moment the kindness of many American towards destitute fugitives from narration in their native eountnes. How easy it would be, by the mere statement of a few facts such as the fore- going, to divert a rnnsederabk portion of the stream of immigration that bas been setting is toward. the States for the past few years, from its usual course, and direct it to the moutb of the St. Lawrence.

Let these agents be under the control of the Chief Commissioner of emigration, that is of the Bureau of agriculture, that is of the Presi- dent of the Commit, for Mr. Cameros would, we are confident, undertake succes- fully the duties of the three departments. The expenses of the agents may be defray- ed by a tax of a &billing a bead on the emigrants, to be collected from the captains or owners of the vessels in which they ar- rive at Quebec. Or indeed tee Province alight well afford in coesideratioa of the advantages wbicb it would be sure to derive from a regular, well organized system of emigratioe, to pay the expenses.

Surely 6e mon hate more ability than erer we, his partial constituents, gate him credit for.— Well the papers from tete East began to come to hand, and we found tbe Tele- graph, Recorder, Bathurst Carrier, Lanark t716serrer, Kiogston Whig and Herald, Belleville Chronicle, Whitby Reporter, Toronto Examiner, North American and Mirror, Norfolk Messen- ger, Brantford Herald, Loodoo Free Press, and Kent Advertiser, all well pleas- ed that the Government had attacbed web important duties to the office of President of the Council as induced Mr. Cameron to feel be could consistently accept it—and that without one shilling of expense to the country. The clerks in one office or another bad corresponded witli Agricultu- ral Societies, and Emigrant agents, and with persons seeking patents, but no re- sponsible known bead existed, whose busi- ness it was to supenotend these important duties and to satisfy public interest and ex- pectation. Tbese cierks arranged in a seperate department under Mr. Cameron whose duty it will be to tint the Agricul- ral Societies, gather statistics, suggest im- provements, watch Legislation and rime - mead aids in close corresposdenee with the Professor of Agriculture will be, we art sure, the most popular department in Canada.
