OREGoN.-Mr. Thurston, the delegate
from Oregon, has published circular show
ing the extraordinary inducements for Emil
grants TO go to Oregon. The Legislature
at its last session took measures to secure
the quiet ofthe Indians by purchasing their
lands, and providing for the removal of the
Tribes A bill was also passed giving to all
men, over eighteen years of age; arriving
and settling in Oregon, previous to Deem
Der, 1850, $40 acres of land, if single, and
if married, $40 acres. The bill then pro-
vides that If those single men marry IN one
year from the first of December, 1850, they
shall receive GAO acres. White males over
twenty one, emigrating to the country, and
settling there, between the first day of De-
cember, 1850, and the first day of Deem
Der, 1853, shall receive 100 acres of land,
if single man, and if married, then 800
acres. But there is also provision here,
that if single men marry in one year after
arriving in the Territory, they then receive
$50 acres. All male minors who go to the
country, and settle and become twenty-one
before December, 1855, will receive 100 "a
cres of land, absolutely. and if they marry

their intentions of becoming American citi-
z9ns, are treated like native born American
citizens, and they are only required to COM
plete their naturalization before they get
final title. In the opinion of Mr.. T., Ore
gon is the place above all others for emf
