/ II this be true, the lands for witch two
dollars per acre are now requisd to be
paid under the credit system will really
DC worth no more, (stript of heir i'm

fAen DC selling equally as good land for
In Illustration of this position your
memorlailsls beg leave to present some
calculations, which they deem sufficien,
10 remove all doubt on the subject.
| II you will suppose the case of the
sale OF a single acre for two dollars, and
payment OF the FIRST instalmani which
IS SO cents, there will remain 81 SO cents
yet to be paid, being 25 cents more THAI
the present minimum price of the publ
land. If you will deduct 375 per c5aI
therefrom, there will then remain to b
paid 934 cents, which added to the firsV
lnsialment already paid, will give you
81 454 cents, sum exceeding the mi
nlmum price for which tho public lands
are now sold.
| Where two instalments have been
paid, the price that would be redeiy ed
tor the acre, after making similir de-
tduc,lon, would be 81 62l cents land
where three lnstalmenis are paid, the
price received would be 81 81 tents.
/ These are calculations founded on a
sale at the former minimum PRIZE
Where a higher price shall have been
given the amount received will be re-
duced in the same proportions, and it
cannot escape yoor honorable body that
me safes were more generally, for sum
above the minimum price then, than they
lprobably ever will be again. 7,
Your memoriaiists forbearto enter in
to a discussion, to show the important
advantages tina, would result to the coun-
try trofn being released from the load of
debt, which their hopes and expectations
would not allow them heretofore to shake
oil, BY reliDqaishng proper proportion
afthe lands lhey had purchased.

I From The Star ofthe Ues..l

observe that Mr.. Warren, the Editor of the
Edwardsville Spectator, attributes the post
ponement of the Land Sale, which bv a Pro-
clamation ofthe President of the United States,
was to have taken place at the Land Office, in
Edwardsville, on Monday last in part, to I" the
absence from the ate of Mr. Coles, the Re-
gister," for that Distrct.--it is but Justice to
Mr.. Coles, that the Public should know that
that event was not attributable in any part, to
his absence butte thelamentablc death of the
Receiver. Tnis Mr.. Warren, must have known
to be the reason Of the postponencnt and not
withstanding Mr.. Coles absence, the sales
would have taken place, but for the death of
the Receiver. TRUTH.
FIR Mr.. Nike, the Clerk in the Regis
ter's Office, and who is supposed TO be the
author Of the above article, in company
with the editor and others, was at the
house of the late Col. Stephenson, on
evening Of the decease Of the latter. L,
having been observed that the sales could
not be held in the absence of both OF the
officers of the Land Office, he (Mr.
NIX. requested that We would notice.
the fact in an editorial paragraph, to
prevent an unnecessary travel to this
place, of persons w'.o intended to pur-
chase at the sales; with which request
we complied, in the following words:
s"In consequence Of the absence from the
state OF Mr.. COLES, the Register, and the death
OF Col. STEPHENSON, the Receiver, no sales of
public land will take place at the Land Office
in this town, on Monday next, as advertised by
proclamation of the President Of the United
Z States"
In doing this, we thought we were
complying strictly with the request, and
without intending or expressing The least
censure upon Mr.. Coles. But it seems
his friends have taken the alarm, lest
his absence should be construed into a
dereliction Of duty; and, therefore, it
must be denied, that his absence had any
agency in the postponement, because,
forsooth, the sales would have been held,
had not Providence interposed, in the re-
moval Of the Receiver. Admirable logic
Registers and Receivers are, by law,
the superintendent OF all public sales OF
the lands Of the United States-the cour-
tesy Of the law giving the precedence to
Register. They act jointly, and their
authority is equal. II the Receiver can
hold a sale in the absence of the Regis
ter, the latter can do the same in the abb
sence Of the Receiver; and were we dis
posed TO turn the logic Of" Truth" upon
himself, we would say--.he postpone
nent Is not in any part attributable to the
deceasc ofthe Receiver, butifthe Regis
were not absent the sales would have,
taken place.

but where money could be raised, i. was
generally applied to the satisfaction OF
the claims Of private creditors, and more
particularly SO because the law in sucn
cases could be put in force against them
and their properly sacrificed to raise the
money to meet such demands. u
1 Your memorialists therefore beg an
indulgent hearing Of their petition. and
benign consideration of their situation,
and pray: st. That a law may be pass
ed authorizing those who have retained
more land on further credit than they
wish to keep, to rclinqaish such part
thereof as they may think proper, ac-
cording to the restrictions contained in
the act to which they have referred :
ID. To extend the time TO a still further
day, within which complete payment
may be made on any tract Of land, SO as
to entitle the purchaser to discount Of
s74 per cent. =
In acceding to these propositions your
memoralisis beg leave 10 express the
belief that no injustice will be done to the
interests of the United States.
The government has already fixed the
minimum price Of the public lands at
81 IS per acre, and from the quantity
now in market, the most sanguine cal
culator cannot but believe that as good
land will remain unsoid six years hence
as can be desired for cultivation. ~
