To the Senate and House of Representatives Qfthe
United STATES in Congress assembled The memo
rial of the undersigned, respectfully represents that
they are entitled to Bounty Land, under the act
of 25th Of September, 1885, that they are informed
and believe that the INDICATED warrants worth
more 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
they could avoid if permitted to sell the warrant
Your memorialists further represent ,hat the law
by preventing the sale Of the warrants, assume,
that the officers and volunteers entitled to bounty
lands, are not competent to act for themselves,
whereas many Of them among the most intel
ligent and respectable citizens of the States. They
therefore respectfully ask that the act aforesaid
may be 80 modified az to make the warrants for
bounty lands asaignabIe, and they will ever

PUBLIC DEBT OF VIRGINIA.

We learn from the Petersburg Democrat that the
public debt Of Virginia is twenty-five millions i've
hundred and forty.eight thousand seven hundred
and fifty-seven dollars and six cents. This state
ment is based upon Report Of the Finance Com
mite of the House Of Delegates. recently submitted.
The estimate of the disbursements from the Treasury
for the next fiscal year amounts to $2,342,476 g..
To meet the interes, this large debt, heavy tax
alton is of necessary; for up to this time ac'
cording the Report referred to, the entire dividends
from all works Of internal improvement amount to
only about Sal, 900 per annum. " In round numb
ers," says the Democrat, the Report estimates all
the resources of the State and Board of Public oks,
as equal TO $663,545 80. Now. as the annual and
necessary expenses Of the government amount to
65U 900, it follows that the resources of the State
are Just equal the discharge Of its unavoidable cur
rent obligations. So that but for the immense debt
of the State. the government of Virginia might sub
sst without any burden upon her peoPle" The ex'
penditures for internal Improvement in Virginia. thus
far, amount to fraction over fourteen millions oi
dollars.
The public debt of North Carolina, exclusive of
the States obligations imposed by the Central Rail
road charter, does not now exceed, we believe, ont
million two hundred and. fifty thousand dollars.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
AT meeting of the Wings Of Henderson County,
held on the 22d of last month, the following among
other Resolutions was adopted:
Res,lued, That in the absence of all the delegates
appointed to attend the Convention at Raleigh we
respectfully request his ExceIlency; Charles Manly,
to represent US in that Convention, and that copy
of the proceedings of this meeting, signed oy the
Chairman and Secretary. be forwarded TO him by the
Chairman"
After this with other Resolutions, offered by Mr..
Baxter, had been adopted, Henry i. Farmer, Esq.,
introduced the following as an amendment, which
was also adopted:

and chivalrous advocate of Wing principles, Gen.
John G. Bynurn of Rutherford"
Gov. Manly requested to represent in Convention

On the 18th Of March, Mr.. Mangam made some
remarks in the Senate, in the course of which he said
the Wings had "nag in training for the Presi-
Dental race, "which he thought likely would not
only pass the score, but leave his competitor in the
distance" Mr. Mangum was understood on all hands
to alude TO Gen. Scott, and his remarks were hailed
throughout the free States, aad especially by the
New York Tribune, as an evidence of liberalty and
national Whieism which could not be too highly
commended.
Bot on the LIST of April, Mr.. Mangum again took
the floor, and said he " thought both parties were
pretty we'll disIocated-broken in the middle. He
had no party feeling, for he fell he had become pretty
nearly an outsider." g..
On the 18th of March, Mr.. Mangum was in fine
spirits-a Wing all overland ready to stake his
dollars on the Scott nag but the first Of April
the enthusiasm of the gentleman had fallen sc

himself nowhere az a party man. Mr.. Mangun

case of murder-and, at term, two cases, where.

DELEGATES TO baltimore. The Standard sug.
ees,s the pfoprie,y of the District Conventions Of
this State selecting each four delegates to the BAIT
more Convention instead of only one as heretofore
contemplated. In view Of the reasons therefor We
mos, heartily second the suggestion and we hsPe it
will be acted upon by all the District Conventions
yet to meet. The reasons for this suggestion and
why should be carried out are, that other States,
disregarding what was considered settled pointi
that each State should send delegate for every
Congressional District, have selected greater num-
Der. Virginia appointed four tor each Congressional
District, and, If we mistake not. other States
have appointed many and all have appointed more
