PUBLIC LANDs.--The annual report of
the Commissioner Of the General Land
Office, recently transmitted to Congress.
states that the sales of the public lands are
still on the increase. There were disposed
of, during the year 1874, l,747,l5s acres,
showing an excess over the sales of lS43,
of al 1874 acres, and of lS42 of 6l7,94l
acres. The sales, it is stated, have been
made in small subdivisions to different in
dividuals, mostly of so and l6O acre lots,
intended by the purchasers for their own
immediate occupancy and cultivation. The
quantity sold, however, bears but small
proportion to that in the market during the
year, 6.693,63s acres of new land having
been offered at public sale, in addition to
what had been previously offered, large
residues of which still remained on hand
The surveys continue to 60 on with activi-
ty, and the lands are brought into market
as soon as they are surveyed.

OPThe following are the yeas'and nays
on the passage of Mr.. Welborn's bill in
the Senate, laying the State off into Con-
gressional Districts, published in our last:

per, Harris, Lucas, Miller, Mills, Monroe
and Snell--9.
Those in italics are wings.
If we mistake not, it was Fort and Mon
roe who submitted report to the last leg
islature, in which they opposed districting,
on Constitutional grounds. Fort, we see,
voted for Welborns bill. Has he changed
his notions. or did he think then he was on
the popular side, and having found out his
mistake, is only squaring his sailsl Perhaps
he looks upon WeIborn's bill as such an
outrageous Gerrymander that it would be
a misnomer to call il bill for dstrcting.
constitution. We believe this bill has not
yet been taken up in the House-nor do
we suppose it will be. until the Senate acts
upon the New County bill passed the
House. Should the Senate adopt this bill,
their district bill will have TO be remodeled,
so as to include the sixteen new counties.
