The PUBLIC LANps--Mr. Clay has revi
we'd in the Senate, bis bill which passedthat bo
dy at the last session, fog distributing the pro-
ceeds of the Public Lands. Meanwhile, Ger.
tain Members from the Western States, en-
couraged by the sentiments expressed on that
subject in the Presidents Message, have moved
enquiries into the expsdiency of reliuquishng
TO the respective States in which they lie, GER
tain described portions of those lands. This ia
designed as the entering wedg for the ultimate
demand of Tho total cession of tho Nation
al domain, TO the new States within whose
limits they lie. The gross demagogisrn of
Gen. jackson was never moro conspicuous
than when he calls the price paid by the pur-
chaser, Isl % or 50 90 per acre for the finest
laud in the WORLDLY tar, and urges it as an in =
tolerable hardship. We hope Virginia and
Vrglnia'S Representatives, now that the Presi-
DENTAL contest is over, will so far aba,e of their
eumty to MIR. Clay as to give his bill an i'm
partial hearing; and thereby not merely defeat
tie Piundering schemes in agitation, but secure
TO Virginia sono return for her unprec edente d
sacrifices and maguifcen. liberality.

RECEPTION OF TIE Presidents MESSAGE
AT CHARLEsToN.-The sentiment excited by
the following article from the Charleston Mcr-
curry, the leading Notification print in the State,
IN conjunction with the Presidents Proclama-
ton, will in the mind Of every patriot, I've one
of keen regret. We are here told that the views
OF The Presidents Message were such as to have
satisfied D. Carolina-we see the joy which he
had dIifused by the conciiatory language aud
recommendations Of that Message, and but for
the Proclamation, the man who advised whicl,
ought to be viewed as the most deadly enemy
Of his count and its peuce---but for this most
ill-,imed and thrice fatal edict, the dove OF
peace had alreedy been in flight to carry the
glad iidings of reconciliation. 10 The midst of
the satisfaction which his Message had diffused
when the excited passions Of party were al
ready beginning to subside, and the first adj
vances were already made towards restora-
ton of long suspended good feelings and social
intercourse, the Presidents Proclamation
comes like the sudden white cloud in the Me-
diterraneap, to mar the fair prospect. Who adj.
vised that fatal rescriptl Why was i, not sus
pended to await the effect Of the Message, and
the action of Congress!
THE MEssAcE.-We !wore indebted to the at
tention of the Hon. Robt w. Barnwel, for the onl,
copy ofthe President Message received in this CITY
yesterday, which Immediately published in ar

had taken ground decidedly in favor of State Right

Extract of letter 10 the editor of the Pennsylva
MIA Inquirer, dated

Harrisburg. Dec. 9, 1892.
Dear Sir:-Mr. Keating's resolutions came nm
yesterday, and passed second reading with some
slight amendments, some of which were propoAed
by himself. He prefaced their introduction to tho
House with observations in their favour: but
causes, exhibited by some of all parties, to press
their immediate consideration. few objected to
the constitutional propriety of the interference of
the state Legislature, although perfectly satisfied
with the tenor of the resolutiOns-some suspected
political illness prefcrence-others considered the
mater premature and unnecessary-but no one
hestacd TO express his decided disapprobaton of
the opinions issued by the convention of South
carolina. Several alterations and amendments
were proposed to the resolutions when Mr. Clark
son, OF your city, in short, but most expressive
and emphatic speech, decided the question. He
considered that the Legislature Of Pennsylvania
owed to the Union party in South Carolina
some dcoIded expression of opinion upon a
subject which had been proposed to the considcra-
ton Of the several states by the nullifiors. In
most kind and feeling manner, lie called upon the
representatives. as Pennsylvanians to Law aside s,,s
picoa and distrust, and to proffer such sentiments
for their support and encouragement, as in like
circumstances we ourselves would desire The adj
hress was conclusive, and tine House unanimously
declared in their favour, after the most impressive
aontlon to the observations OF the gentleman from
Fhadelphia.-I say unanimous, although ona
single coice expressed scarcely heard negative;
which was elected, l believe, by a conscientious
constitutional objection to few of the resolutions,
because the constituents of the individual repre-.
sentative bad declared they could not be satisfied
WIN The practise yRon all occasions of spending
the public Time and money upon subjects which
did not unequvocaly fall within the scope OF
legislative duty.

upon his attention, he will leave the respon-
s;oi'i'y upon Congress. We hcve given but a hur.

what attitude the Representatives. of Virginia
Will assume in this great emergency, and what
part thoy will take between their principles and
their Prcsidont--finally, how the opposition will
oestow their weight, speculations of engross-
ing interest.
In regard to this latter proposition, we feel an
absorbing solisudc. We trust to find in that great
party which has opposed the election of Gen Jack
son. an mpregnable barrier to the qualification of
his evident desire Tor war, and rampant against
the unbounded assumptions of power by the Fedc
raj Executive. In the Senate at least they have
the power to put tho hook in the nose of Levia-
than, and we trust they will exercise it.
Recovering from tho unusual surprise which the
Presidents Proclamation excited here, it will be OBJ
served in our report of the Legislative proceedings
yesterday, that the General Assembly of Virginia,
have moved in tho great impending crisis. Tho
Governors Message, and the speech of Cen. Brod.
max, will be read with general interest.
In what these proceedings may issue, we are I'm
able to predict; but the general impression is, in
the recommendation of General Convention, an
afectionate appeal to S. Carolina TO await the re.
suit of that event. and new vindication of the
principles of Virginia, supposed to be dangerously
jammcd between Executive Prerogaiive and Fete-
raj encroachment on the enc side, and South Ca
rohna extremes, on the other.
We express the joyful and decided conviction
that such a course would be effectual-lhat S. ca
rolma at such moment, will listen with respect,
to the voice of Virginia; that the crisis will take
favorable turn and some expedient he found to save
the Union and tranquility. The Presidents preci-
pitation, is tho chief obstacle to this consumma
ton.
