As a further security, and to protect the parties on whose application the Emigrant is brought out, the Emigrant himself (or head of a family where there are women and children) will, before embarking, be required to give Promissory Notes, payable on demand, which will be forwarded to the Local Government. 3. In case of any Emigrant not- presenting himself for embarkation at the time and place appointed by the Agents in England, after having accepted the offer of a passage, and so being left behind, one half of the passage- money will be forfeited, and must be paid to the Provincial Government, on demand, by the applicants in the Colony ; - for which the first mentioned Promissory Notes will be a security. 4. In order to secure punctuality and prevent disappointment, a special Clerk will be employed by the Shipping Agents in England, who, on receipt of requisitions from the Provincial Government, will communicate with the intending Emigrants, ascertain when they will be prepared to start, give notice in duplicate of the port and day of departure, and make all the arrangements necessary to facilitate embarkation. A depot, or other provision for temporary board and lodging, will be provided at the ports of embarkation at the expense of the Agent, in case of the ship not sailing to the day. 5.
