a calm 10 the whole of the Western Reserve Of
Ohio under a grant from Connecticut alleged to
have been made after the year 762, when Charles
II. granted 10 that colony a patent ior the Re-
serve. In 1795,it Will be remembered, she sold
the Reserve to another company, reinquishing all
claim TO jurisdiction over the territory 70 the
United States in 1900. These Pennsylvania par
ties to-day applied to the General Land Office to
make TO them patents for all the Reservei The
oilee replied, we learn from parties interested in
the "speculaton,v that the Government never
having had claim to or proprielorship over that
territory, they cannot entertain the application
and that the State of Connecticut is the party to
whom the Pennsylvania company must look for
redress; il they really have rights involved in the
case
