States. The principle is new one in the legis-
lation of Congress- with reference to this subject
and the passage of the bill will mark new era in
the history of the public land question. Illinois,
Indiana, Michigan, and other States in which the
public domain is situated will soon come before
Congress aud demand the surrender of this COM
mon property of all the States. If they would be
content to wait until the public lands within their
respective limits are reduced, as in the case of
Ohio, to few hundred thousand acres, the mat
ter would not be one of any great practical impor
tance but the inscriptions rapacity of these
young giants of the West is too well understood
to permit us to hope for any forbearance at their
hands. They will claim the public lands when
ever they think there is reasonable probability
of getting them, and we may rest assured, that
with this Ohio precedent before their eyes, they
will not be slow in making their demands.

quantity of land thus disposed Of, (216, 700 acres

States, but the measure is, nevertheless, one that
deserves passing notice. This bill is based up

B'A Virginia correspondent of the Pennsyl-

Buchanan was the choice of large majority of
the late Democratic Convention in this State
We commend the following extract to the notice
ofthe Douglas men. 1t will be seen that this old
Hunker correspondent not only claims Virginia
for Buchanan, but insinuates doubt whether the
favourite of Young America can carry the State
at all.
There large majority of that Convention in favor
OF Mr. Buchanan Virginia decidedly in favor of this
gifted of Pennsylvania above all others. This is
rous, and this will be conceded by all candid who
were in the Convention whatever their preferences may
be- 1t observed and remarked upon that Gen. Cass
name WINS not once mentioned in the Convention. Not
that he did not have friends; but they very few 1t
IS my candid opinion that had the Convention been pole
Mr. Buchanan would have obtained majority all
others. will mention but one fact, that Mr. WISE
torous Buchanan III favor with the Convention
every mement OF its session. Clabone's amendment in
regard to the organization of the Convention
test vote. A large majority of the Convention was
against expression OF preference and the upon
Claibornes amendment decided against this expression
1t went no farther The District Conventions will send
delegates to the National Convention and Mr.. Buchanan
will certainly have majority of the Districts Mark my
word for it, Mr. Buchanan is nominated he willsweep
Virginia with overwhelming vote; if Mr. Cass Judge
Doug las is nominated, they will carry the State think,
but that will be all.
