NOTE, BY THE EDITORS.

We are really sorry to have given Mr.. FAULKNER
occasion to desire the publication Of the foregoing
Letter. We had not inquired with whom oripina-
ted the call for the papers concerning the Island of
Cuba, which are just now exciting so much atten-
ton We did not even know that such a call had
been made by either House of Congress, until we
heard of the answer to it having issued from the
Congressional Press Our suggestion Of the indif
ference of the House of Representatives to Commu-
nications from the Executive was based on the
notorious fact that the Annual Message of the Pres
dent, though required by the Constitution and never
before so sighted in this way, was, though trans
mted to Congress the second day of the session,
left at the close Of session spun out to term of
nine months lying the table, and is yet lying on
the table of the House, without having received
any action on the part Of that body. We had a
right to suppose that the Cuba message might have
shared the fate of the Annual Message What
appears to be certain is that the Cuba Communica-
ton was lying on the table, among mass Of COM
munications from the Executive Departments. ON
the last day of the late session. On examining the
official report of that days proceedings, we find
that Mr.. JONES, catching for moment the Speak
er's eye, suggested the propriety of the House
ordering Me Executive Reports and Conap,unica,
tons NOW LYING UPON THE SPEAK Err s TABLE 10 be
printed" = 1t would be recollected, he said, that
" GREAT MANY hare neuer been presented TO the
HoaseP No objection being made, the order was
passed as moved by Mr.. JONES, and thus this inn
portant Document has at last to the knowledge
OF Members of Congress, and Of the Public.

LAND CLAIMS In CALIFORNIA.

The latest intelligence from Southern California
states that the Office Of the Land Commissioners at
Los Angeles Is still kept open for the reception Of
claims, although appears that the Board will notb be
in session again at that place, as Judge THORNTON
did not intend to return thither. About one hun
dred claims have been filed since the Commissioners
left San Francisco for the South. The Sacramento
Times of the 30th October says
tbs presumed that the session Of the Commissioners
will be resumed at Santa Barbara, commencing early
next month This is not certain, however, for it is anti
cpated that the next mail will bring prder from the
President requiring the Commissioners to remove San
Francisco 1t is stated that there about three hun
dred claims land which have not yet been presented to
the Board while the number already file amounts to
four hundred and five. From this it appears that the
unadjusted land claims in California reach the
number of hundred many Of which call for twenty
square leagues and upwards 1t will probably be some
time before any important decisions will be
dered, in consequence Of Judges HALL and THORNTON
being unable to agree material questions Should
