MORE LAND WARRANrs.-By reference to
Our tclegraphic dispatches, it will be seen that
another Bounty Land bill has passed the House
OF Representatives. This bill is intended to give
military Land Warrants to each soldier who has
ever participated in any Of the wars in which
the United States have been party.
Should this bill become law, there will be
some fifty or sixty thousand moro Land War
rants thrown into the market.
In view of these circumstances, VIC advise our
country friends not to be in hurry about enter
ing their lands. Land Warrants must fall be-
fore many weeks. If there be no danger of
"jumpers,' VIC advise you to hold on for the
good time coming.
