rI1R0PE AND AMERICA.

The celebrated NJ de PRADT has pub
l,bed another work. which he calls. l.
Europe ct L'.ameriqws en- 1922 ct 1923.
n which hp observes-'One sole part re-
mans for Europe to play towards Ameri-
"a. and hi. part will be as beneficial to
her as glorinus: il will cost neither gold
nor her blood; it will cause no other tears
70 be she'd than those of happiness and
gratitude. This part consists in putting
an end to disdain, 10 distsste, to dispute,
10 uncertainty, by frankly sCkUowleds Ing
what really exists, and by terminating the
strange spectacle Of one world remaining
unlecognised by another. The true way
Of serving Spain is not to iatter her with
vain hopes, but 10 induce her to consent
10 sacrifice which, in the actual state Of
things, is little more than nominal, and TO
Which are attached immense advantages
even TO Spain herself; advantages that
hue alone can deyelope. What would
you do TO America? Would you reduce
ber TO slavery again? Would you desolate
Der third time? Instead OF oyer~he NJ
ing her with such mistortunrs, let the go-
wrnments OF Europe, by leaving Der at
peace, diffuse over that vast continent
blessings the more easily bestowed as they
will cost no hing; let them reflect on the
innumerahIe nerations whlc h Tree Ame-
RIGA cannot fsi' to produce; let them CAL
cuats what Europe must gain by this in
crease in the number and the civilization
Of Americans; let them, it possible, COM
pute all the good which Europe and Anne
Ica may mutually confer on each other
by cultivsling the most intimate, add. al
lie sane time, the most liberal, relations.
Such are the only ideas worthy OF occu-
pying the principal Powers of Europe;
such are the only ideas which can satisfy
the demands of The present and future,
and, above all, of Justice and humanity

MILITARY LANDS IN ILLINOIS.

The Illinois lnteIligenCer OF October /,
says, Non-residents holding lands IN The
Military tract lying between The Illinois
and mississippi rivers. and upon which
the taxes had not been paid, will uDder-
stand, that upwards OF 1000 lots were sold
during the month OF December, 1898, Tor
the tax that remained due for the several
years from 1918 to 1922, inclusive. The
lands thus sold. may be redeemed within
one year from the day on which they
were sold. After that period. the time OF
redemption is passed, and by such sale
the title is vested in the purchaser. We
understand that many tracts yet remsi in
unredeemed This neglect on the part of
the holders OF these lands is no doubt in ma
ny instances, produced from the erroneous
impression which seems to prevail in ma
ny parts OF the Union. that these lands
were exempt from taxation for five gears
from the date of the patent BY our cor.
stitulion, these lands remain free from
taxation for three years, while in the hands
OF the patentee; which term, in all cases,
expires with the year 1927 and in many
cases With 1920; so that the whole Of the
land in this tract was subject 10 taxation
for 1929; and ia every instance where the
land passed from the patentee, from the
date OF the transfer No sale OF these lands
for taxes have taken place since 1919, so
that term of four years has INTERVIEWED,
in which most oil these taxes should have
been paid.
