MEMORIAL.
To the Senate aud House Of Representatives ofthe
United States II, Congress assembled The memo
rial Of the undersigned, respectfully represents rbat
thew 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 If permitted to sell the warrant
Your memorialists further represent that the law
bv preventing the sale Of the warrants, assun
that the officers and volunteers entitled TO bounty
lands. are not competent TO act for 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
NAV he so modified as to make the warrants for
bounty lands assignable, and they will ever
pray, &c.

was appointed clerk in the Department of State
in 1927
He was well acquainted with the French and
Spanish languages, and with English literature.
Throughout the term Of his service in the Depart.
mcnt he strove to promotion, and obtained it,
not by counting the acquaintance OF those having
likely TO have political importance, but by the
conscientious and accurate discharge of the duties
assigned to him, without any faint of personal
servility to his superors in Office and by employ
ing his leisure in those pursuits which were adapt
cd to inform, expand and elevate his mind. and to
improve his great natural capacity for business.
BY his death the public has lost faithful and la
borious servant; his immediate family an affec-
tionate husband father and brother; his associates
in the Department valuable c1emplsr; and his
friends one whose worth they will always hold in

As the friends Of other candidates for this office
are already active in their behalf, desire to pre-
sent the name Of the present incumbent, WALTER
LENox, esq. for reelection. II is to be expected
that personal preference will to some extent, gov
ern the choice OF many; but before the community
generally, honest and discerning in it's decision, is
not the proper question. What is the public inter
est2" 1t must be admitted by every rejecting cti-
zen that sudden and uncaled- for change is not
only unjust to the officer, but to the public inter
est It takes away the personal motive and ambi-
ton which induce the faithful performance Of duty
and loses to the public the benefits of official expert
ence. II the present incumbent has discharged
the duties Of the office with ability and zeal, and
hereafter bring to it the advantage of practical
experience, trust that the people of Washington
