Land Reform.

We hear with pleasure that DANIEL WEE
sTER is preparing to make one of his grand
est efforts in favor of the proposition to offer
every man Free Home from the Public
Lands. Gen. SHIELDS has a bill for that
purpose in preparation which, it is hoped,
will combine the votes Of all the friends of
the principle. Our informant understands
that, from the imperfect canyasses made,
this or some other good bill will pass the
Senate by ten and the House by thirty ma
iority. There's good time coming -
even lift should not come this year. Friends
of Land Reform. write to your Represen-
tatiyes.

California Journalism,

Although journalism is among the most money
making vocaticns in the Land of Gold il has ev..
IDENTITY not yet reached perfection. The absence Of
adequate materials, especially the scarcity Of paper,
has proved great impeachment. Journals far more
profitable than ours have been obliged to appear
for weeks on frrGpoin paper, there being no other
to be had at any price. Nobody seems to have
objected, though how our grumblers would stand
quarter of sheet printed on rather coarse and
brown grocers wrappingpaper, and charged at
two shilings to half dollar per copy, we can't
imagine. We have mind TO try it a week o. two,
Just TO teach them to appreciate more Justly the
blessings they now enjoy.
The Pacific Courier, Messrs. Crane and Rice's
new Wing paper the first decided Wing journal
In California; had not made its appearance on the
lst ult to the great disappointment of MANY. its
publishers included. who have been tantalzed
by the non-receipt of their materials. We pre-.
sumo, however, they arrived very soon alterward'
that the Courier has long since been issued and is
decidedly the handsomest daily in California. We
wish 1t ample success, and that it may fully merritt

seem to have had Tor made) q very severe

case lies within narrow compass, and
ought not to have required three days de-
liberation. what are the facts in the case?
what are the laws and usages of our Gov
'ernment with respect to the payment of
such claims, and of interest thereon?'-
There certainly need not be much difficulty
nor delay in answering these questions.
Yet the Committee have boggled over the
matter as if they had been required to in
vent Perpetual Motion or square the
circle.
One Of our correspondents speaks Of the
majority of the Committee having resolved
to condemn the payment of interest for par
tisan or factiOus purposes. We can better
say with how much justice this charge is
made when the facts come out but, in their
absence, it will be hard to make the People
believe that ELISHA WHITTLEsEY rejected the
claim on any such grounds, or that those
who follow in his footsteps with regard to
claim are so far wrong as to Justify an i'm
putation Of unworthy motives. Let US keep
cool and ascertain the facts.

DEATH OF MEs. OsGooD.-We learn with
equal surprise and pain that FRANCES SAR-
GENT OscooD, widely known as an author,
mainly of Verse, some Of which is truly
worthy of the much abused designation,
Poetry, died at o'clock last evening. In
the prime of life, the light and JOY of low
ing household, with Literary position not
lofty but creditable and fairly, faithfully
won the clouds of Misfortune and worldly
care just breaking away from her onward
path, we know no one to whom continued
life might seem more desirable than to her.
