MEMORIAL.

To The Senate and House Of Representatives. ofthe
United States in Congress assembled The memo
rial of the undersigned respectfully represents that
they are entitled to Bounty Land, under the act
of 18th Of September, 1850, that they are informed
and believe that the INDICATED warrants are worth
more to them than the patented lands would be,
that they do not expect or desire to reside on the
land thus granted; that if patented to them, the
expense OF agencies and taxes will be an annual
charge, reducing the value Of the grant, which
thew could avoid IL permitted to sell the warrant
Your memorinlis,s further represent that the law,
by preventing the sale of the warrants, assun s
that the officers and volunteers entitled to bounty
lands, are not competent to act Tor themselves,
whereas many of them are among the most intel
ligent and respectable citizens of the States. They
therefore respectfully ask that the act aforesaid
may be so modified as to make the warrants for
bounty lands assignablc, and they will ever
pray, &c.

THE public will be gratiied to learn that the
| United States Mail Steamship Company
abled TO announce that their srrang ements are now
complete for sending passengers through from
New York TO San Francisco and back.
In IN e first attempts of this Company to meet
the want is OF travel to California, by providing
ships on the Pacific, in connection with their
ships ON New York to Chagres, they were pre-
vailed upon, at the urgent solicitation of the great
number then desirous TO go out, to sell tickets for
through passages from Panama in advance for
their ships then going round This done
from desire to accommodate those who could
procure passages IN no other quarter. and by
which, whatever might be the detention, they
would reach San Francisco sooner than by any
other line Unforeseen difficulties, and the preva-
lence Of fever at Rio de Janeiro at the time, pre-
vented their ships nom reaching Panama as soon
anticipated, and caused detention at the 18TH
mus, which was increased by the lmpatlence OF
passengers in going forward, against the advice
Of the Company, at an earlier day than the ship
could possibly reach Panama.
These interruptions now all removed.
Three Of the four ships Of the Company, intended
for the Pacific service, have arrived at Panama,
and several of them have performed trips to San
Francisco and back. So that the Company are
now able to give the public the that the
voyage through from New York to San Fran
CISCO will be performed with regularity aud d es-
