portant subjects which before Congress. In

public lands has given rise to the severest sruggea
When the public territory very large the interest too
great to lead to different views and arrangements for Its
disposition. But what country can boast Of 90 large
domain as the United States where there many
parties to struggle for part OF I'll We shall aks up
this question at our earliest LEISURE and present our own
views upon it, Meantime, may say that no speech upon
the subject during the present session has commanded
more attention than Judge Felchs, (senator from Mich
| igan.)
