AA'"ASANS<1S AM hAADsss
Upwards of three thousand quarter sections
Of these lands were sold for taxes in October
and November last, and, unless redeemed
within twelve months, by payment of the a.
mount of taxes and costs of sale, with an addi-
ton of one hundred per cent. per annum, they
will be forfeited by the owners. The amount
which will be required to redeem quarter

fees, varies from about sac dollars to about

sold, except in those cases where the taxes
had been paid.
The Idres for the present year have been
due for some time, and, unless they are paid
before the first Monday in November next. the
lands will be sold. They amount to So 40 on
each quarter section, except for lands lying in
Independence County, where County tax of
80 cents is levied in addition to the territorial
tax, which makes the tax on lands living in
that County, amount to So 20 for each quar-
ter section, or 100 acres. The fees charged
by the Land agents, for paying taxes, vary
from so cents to 81 per tract, according to the
number of tracts to be attended to.
Military Bounty Lands become taxable at
the expiration of three years from the date of
the patent; but il sold before the expiration
of the three years, they become taxable imme.
diately after the transfer.
Those residing at distance from the Terri
tory, whose taxes have not been paid, have
not moment to spare-they ought to attend
to their lands without delay.

and obtain certificates Of redemp;ion; that he

OF which is contained in the following extract:

in salone, and the third beaten and dispersed.
Commodore Porter-The trial of this
officer has terminated, and the proceed
lngs have been approved by the Pres-
dent. He was found guilty of the first
charge, which related TO the landing a
force at Foxardo, in direct opposition TO
the instructions given him by govern
ment,--" IN conlravention of the Con-
stitutinA of The United States, and of the
Law of Nations.'
The first specification of the second
charge was not wholly proved. That.
however, was fully proved respecting
the letter which he sent to the PresI.
dent, bearing date the 18th April, 1926.
and the letters 10 the Secretary of the
Navy, dated Goth Jan. the 18th April.
and the 18th June, 1925. His conduct
was declared insuboTdinaie and disre-
spectful, and g violated the respect due
from every officer in the Navy, to the
Head OF the Department, impairing the
discipline of the service, and setting
most dangerous and perDicious exam
pie" The letter of the 10Th Of March
the court did not consider as deserving
the same censure, and Of course this
specification was not proved.
The second specification of the Sec
ond charge the court considered fully
proved. This had reference TO his pub
fishing a pamphlet after the Court of
Inquiry had investigated his conduct,
before the Executive had published or
authorized the proceedings of the Court
TO be made public
The third specification was fully
proved. 1t declared that the pamphlet
mentioned in the second specification
was . an incorrect statement Of the pro-
ceed'ngs of said Court of Inquiry"
On the fourth specification, the Court
found him guilty. 1t stated that in the
publication referred to, he inserted ma
ny things respecting the Secretary of
the Navy, which were false and disre-
specttul both to him and the Court of
Inquiry.
The fifth specification related to his
publishing the official correspondence
and orders of government without au.
thority or permission for that purpose
This was fully proved.
1t will be seen by the statement above
given, hat the Court considered him gull
'y of all the charges brought against him.
except in writing the letter of the 10Th
of March, mentioned in the first specifi-
cation of the first charge. The SEN
tence of the Court was, that he be sus-
pended from the service six months.

1t will be seen by extracts made from

Those letters established the fact, that a

rec;ioa, and had occupied Argos. Th :
accounts of later dates are uno hicial, but
are numerous; most oil them anDounC-
inc rot only the entire defeat of Ibrahim
but Of his capture BY the Greeks while
others are OF an opposite cast; one OF the
most plausible OF which is, that the force
repulsed before Napol was light corps

the last accounts were to be credited,

Argos to Corinth, and had destroyed it.
