LAND REFoRM.-We yesterday gave the sub
stance of what was said in favor of this measure
at the late meeting in New York. 1t is our
purpose to give a hearing to the opponents OF
this scheme as soon as space will permit.
very able article ON the subject is copied into
the Union of this morning from the New York
Journal of Commerce; but 1t is not destitute OF
sophistry. The position assumed IN the iourth
paragraph is untenable, and unworthy place In
the connexion in which it stands. The writer
says:
nThe gift of one hundred and sixty acres
of land, upon condition of cultivation, is only
bounty of 5000 for becoming farmer. Now,
suppose the Government fifty years ago had
offered bounty of 5000 to those who would
adopt the mechanical art of the blacksmith, the
carpenter, or the mason does any one suppose
that the number Of those who would follow for
q livelihood those pursuits would have mate
rally increased"
The cultivation of the soil is the primitive
and natural pursuit of man. 1t enjoined upon
him by the express command of Deity. With
out obeying that command he fails to perform
great office imposed upon him by his Creator.
Yet he may perform this Office through the
agency of another, for whom he in turn may do
some useful service promotive of this work.
1t is thus that in society, by an implied COM
pact into which every man enters, the aux
iliary duties of life are assumed. When, how
ever, it is found that there are too many persons
engaged in this secondary class of duties, and
that the great cities of civilized men are crowded
by those who cannot procure employment, and
who with their families are living in idleness
and penury, is it not natural that the mind
should recur to the green pastures and fresh
waters the possession of which is natural
right, and the consideration for the reinquish-
ment of which has failed?
Whether it is good to forsake the conven-
tional rules Of society, or rather to so change
them as to permit and maintain the assertion of
a right to possess unoccupied land by men who
desire to cultivate it, is not necessarily estab-
lished by the distinction we would draw; but
that any parallel exists between permitting a
man to occupy the soil upon which beneficent
Providence has placed US all, and giving bo-
nus to whomsoever will pursue calling which
many are willing to adopt from choice, is, in
our opinion, an unwarranted assumption, and
well adapted to beget suspicion of the motives
of those who would maintain it..
