MEMORIAL.

To m, Senate and House Of Representatives. cfthe
United States in Congress assembled The memo
rial of the undersigned respectfully represents that
thew are entitled to Bounty Land, under the act
of 18th Of September, 1880 that they are informed
and believe that the INDICATED warrants are worth
more to them than the patented lands woaid be,
thai thev 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, winch
thew could avoid if permitted to sell the warrant
Yonr memoralists further represent that the law
by preventing the sale of the warrants, assun Q
tb.t the officers and volunteers entitled to bounty
lends are not competent to act for themselves,
whereas MANY Of them are among the most intel
l;eent and respectable citizens of the States They
,S.refore respectfully ask that the act aforesaid
NAV be 40 modified as to make the warrants for
bounty lands assignable, and they will ever
pray, &c.

INSTITUTE FOR THE BLIND.-We ought TO
have noticed some weeks since that the board
OF trustees have appointed Mr.. Alexander Nc
Donald, of Boston, to take charge of the Inst-
tute for the Blind, established in this village
Mr. Mcdonald is young gentleman of good ac-
quirements, prepossessing address, and comes
highly recommended by DR.. s. e. Howe, of the
Perkins Institute, Boston. From our short ac-
quaintance with him we are induced to believe
that the board have made wise selection; a
selection calculated to advance the interests OF
the institution. Mrs. HnRter, who has charge
of the domestic affairs of the Institute, has evin-
ced a zeal and devotion to the well being of the
pupils, which do great credit to her rs a woman
and philanthropist. For some months prevl-
Gus to the arrival Of Mr.. Mcdonald, the teach
ers department devclved upon Miss Hoyt, who
proved herself equal to the responsible task
She now has the appointment ofassisstant teach
er.
The number of the pupils is yet quite limited,
owing to a want of proper accommodation. The
new building will be ready for occupancy in the
spring, and is expected to afford ample room for
all who may for the present apply for admission.
The appropriations of the legislature for this
humane and benevolent object have thus far
been small II is to be hoped for the honor OF
the state, that nothing like sectional jealousy
will prevent the appropriation of sufficient funds
to complete the building and meet the other ex-
penses of carrying on the school. Other states
have We'd with each other in liberality for such
objects. Let not Wisconsin be entirely outdone
in a liberality so honorable and praiseworthy.
