Report OF the secretary Of the Interior.


We doubt whether any report from any department
will be read with more interest and by more OF our c
zens than that by the Secretary Of The Interior. which
we publish to-day The subjects embraced in this report
are directly interesting TO very large portion Of the
people Mr. McCieand has discussed them in a
nsr we'll calculated TO increase this interest The land
system receives no small share OF his attention. and his
views on the subject manifest an intimacy with its de-
tails, as well as its principles. which shows that Mr.
McClelIand fully comprebends this important branch of
his department The interest which he manifess to-
wards the settlers the public lands will be seen with
qualification by large ana worthy class OF our citizens
Il will be observed that he proposes modification OF
the present land system, except for the benefit OF set
tiers Mr.. McClelland makes many valuable sugges.
tons connected with the pension and patent laws whilst
be gives clear and comprehensive view OF the present
condition Of the several branches OF his department His
statements in regard to the value Of public domain
will attract attention, particularly they arrive at con.
illusions widely different from those which have been
heretofore entertained by many eminent statesmen. II
will occur to every reader OF this report that Mr. Nc
Cleland has laborious posilion and the results
show conclusivey that he has proved himself fully
peent 10 his high and responsible duties This report
will enlarge his reputation for talents and give assurance
that this complicated and important department OF the
government is in charge OF man eminently qualified 10
administer it successfully.

The death OF Vice President w r. King, which was
so feelngy adver,ed by President Pierce in his
sage, was announced in both houses of Congress on
Thursday last We published yesterday the eloquent
and truthful euoges upon The life and char
acier and public services of the deceased in The Senate
and we publish to-day the beautiful Tribute paid TO the
memory of The distinguished statesman by Mr.. Harris,
in the House. We shall follow with the other eulo-
ges delivered in the House able to procure
copies. II would hardly be expected that we should
undertake to add anything TO the euloges so well
csived and 30 eloquenty delivered in both houses We
knew Colonel King personally and politically for many
years, and we never knew q more high minded chiv-
arous, and noble His memory merits all tina,
his warm hearted friends have said OF his character and
public services.
By reference to the proceedings in the Supreme Court
on yesterday. it will be seen tina, Attorney General

effects OF all such demonstrations and msne rpretaons

views of propeiy, we deem best TO characterize il a,
once as wholly uniounded.
The whole case may be stated 10 lew words. One

published the following;
