edition was 800 copies, three volumes tn
each, valued at from $4,000 10 $4,000.
They were insursed for $4,000; and their
property destroyed is estimated az from
$4,000 to $4,000. The materials Of tbe
Madisonian Office were all destroyed, and
no insurance on them. They were worth.

:, General Lan@ QGscc.-From the Annual
Fep9rt o. the Commissioner of the General

year, 1889, the nrnhel of acres scld was g.
= 'o9.i' anu ihepvrchasc money fer the same
amounted to S4,1G8.S
Twill thus be seen that the sales for enc
half Of the year 1889, exceeded these Ct tho
Whole preceding year. This is the more re-
mHrkabic frcm the consider. ion Of the rcpcr-
al scarcity fmcnoy in the country for tic las,
twelve months. The year 1856 was disiin-
Gri,hed for the large amount of sales of pub
nc lands. The entire proceeds for that wear
rom tins source amounted to more than tyon-
tiy-five millions Of dollars, being about SIX
times as treat as the amount received in 1855.
