PLYMOUTH ROCK.
BY MRS. L. II. sIGoURNEY


A bark is moor'd below,
Mid the tossing of the bay
What seeks she, where the hunter bow
Hath evermore held sway
Who stand on Plymouth Rock
Yon feeble, alien band
Why dare they winters widest shock,
Thus, in a stranger land
Their sufferings who can tell,
Save the bitter blast that blew
And the freezing SHOWS that fell
Ere their lowly cabins grew?
An axe among the trees
The rugged hearth-stone flames
Up spring the mushroom huts-are these
For England's high born danes
Hank to the war wkoop wild
See the red Indians crest;
The prayerful mother clasps her child
The warrior girds his breast.
Their trust, mid fear and toll.
Was in the Strong to Save;
Their ploughshare broke a sterile soil
Their faith disarmed the grave.
Recount their deods of yore,
Sons of those ancient sires,
And kindle on this sacred shore
True Freedoms beacon fires;
And give Him praise, whose Hand
Sustained them with His grace,
Making this Rock, whereon We stand,
The Mecca Of their race

PUBLIC LANDS IN oHIo-INTEREsTrNe STATS.
TICS

The following tables, taken from the neat,
concise, effective speech of Mr.. Chase in the
Senate, April l4th, advocating the cession to
Ohio of the unsold public lands within its lin
its, will be found instructive
The quantity of land unsold in Ohio, on the
30th of September last was only 2l6,O70 acres
The quantity sold by the General Government
in Ohio, up to that time, had been 1866, 9O9
acres Besides these large sales, there had been
granted to the States of Connecticut and Vr-
ginia, rs Inducements TO the cessions made by
them to the United States, 7,376,769 acres
and to companies and individuals, mostly in
large tracts, and for resale, 1855 acres
and to satisfy claims for military purposes,
l,564,997 acres. The aggregate quantity OF
lands for which the people Of Ohio have had,
or have yet to pay the Government or its
grantees is therefore 23,046, 484 acres There
have been reserved for Indians and salines
40, SAT acres. There remain, as have stated,
only 2l6070 acres unsold Ii follows, there
fore, that the whole amount contributed by the
United States as the proprietor Of this i'm
mense domain, to its improvement and prepa-
ration for sale is only 1913, 859 acres. This in.
cludes all the grants for schools, colleges, re-
hgous purposes, and internal improvements.
The amount of money paid by the people of
OhiO--the individual citizens of OhiO-into the
Treasury of the United States for the privilege
of occupying and tilling the SOIL is 2O,s53, 6s4
The sums paid to the grantees Of the Govern
ment for lands granted to States, companies,
and individuals, not included in the ordinary
sales, estimating these lands at the minimum
only, amounts to $i303o 968. The vast aggre-
gate swells to 500 800, 664 Make every deduc-
ton from this sum which any fair considera-
ton can suggest; exclude the value of the
grants TO Northumberland as the grants to
John Cleyes Symmes and the Ohio Company,
and the grants for military services-and still
the amount paid by the people Of Ohio to this
Government and its grantees, for the soil on
which they live and from which they draw by
honest toll the means of life, will greatly ex-
coed $50 100000.
The history of the world does not afford an
other instance of the original ownership of wild
lands being acquired by the inhabitants of any
State or country at such price
will now state somewhat more particularly
the grants made to Ohio for education, interna!
improvements, and other purposes, and compare
their amount with similar grants made to other
States
The grants made to Ohio are these
For schools, colleges, &c = 72z52s acres
For internal improvements l,243,00i
For swamp lands 303, 329

Ut 0j000jT
The quantity granted to the Central railroad
is not precisely ascertained II is set down in
the official tables ut 2, 246, 400 acres but these
figures are certainly much below the real guam
tity. In the debate on the Iowa land bill, Sem
ators who sustained tho Illinois grant stated
the quantity to be from 100000 to 2, TOO, 900;
and have reason TO believe the largest guam
tity is not outside the truth II appears, then,
that the grants to Illinois exceed the grants to
Ohio by more than 100000 acres.
