IMPORTANT TO New SETTLERs.-A
bill to grant homesteads to early settlers
in New Mexico, Kansas, and Nebraska,
has just passed both Houses of Con-
gress, and has been signed by the Presi-
dent. 1t grants leo acres of land to
persons who resided within the terrific
ry prior to the Ist of January, 1853, or
who may remove and settle there before
the first of January, 1858. We copy a
section of the bill:
"Sec. 2. And belt further enacted
That, to every white male citizen Of the
United States, or every white male
above the age of twenty-one years, who
has declared his intention to become a
citizen, and who was residing in said
Territory prior to the first day of Janua-
ry, eighteen hundred and fftY-three,
and who may be still residing there.
there shall be, and hereby is, donated
one quarter section, or one hundred
and sixty acres of land. And to every
white male citizen of the United States,
or every white male above the age of
twenty-one years, who has declared his
intention to become a citizen, and who
shall have removed or shall remove to
and settle in said Territory between the
first day of January, eighteen hundred
and fifty-three, and the first day OF
January, eighteen hundred and fifty
eight, there shall in ike manner be do
mated one quarter section, or one hun
dred and sixty acres, on condition ol
actual settlement and cultivation for not
less than four years: Provided, how
ever, That each of said donations shall
include the actual settlement and i'm
provement Of the donee, and shall be
selected by legal subdivisions, within
three months after the survey of the
land where the settlement was made be-
fore the survey; and where the settle
ment was made after the survey, then
within three months after the settlement
has been made; and all persons falling
to designate the boundaries of their
claims within that time, shall forfeit all
right to the same"
This bill is an Improvement upon the
amendment to the homestead bill, pro-
posed by Mr.. Hunter, as it does not re-
quire any pay from the settler, and only
requires four yearsresidence instead Of
FIVE. Persons desiring homes in Kan
sas, or Nebraska, will be glad to learn
that by this bill they can secure them
without paying any thing for them. by
complying with the above conditions.

FOREST MELODIES.

Ilove the fine old forest,
That for centuries hath stood,
And waved its lofty branches
Grandly in the solitude;
Mid its glories and its graces,
A stately grandeur dwells;
And Natures hand there traces
All her bright and magic spells.
Its shades are full of voices.
Ever ringing joyous out;
From its trembling whispered breath
ings,
To the storms wild boisterous shout;
And its notes so deeply thrilling,
From the dark recesses start,
And swell through the ether, stilling
The quiet beating of the heart.
When the gorgeous robe of spring time
Hath arrayed them in its green,
And the leaves are bright with dew
drops,
Glancing in the mornings sheen!
Then its full enchanting chorus
With rapture we have heard,
For the songs are round and Ger us,
Of each giadsome forest bird.
Or when the scar of Autumn,
Hath fastened on the leaf,
And clad in summer glories,
With the fading garb of grief;
One fearful strain of sorrow
Will the song bird sadly chime,
Ere they fit upon the morrow
To some far and sunny cline.
We have heard the gentle zephyrs
Stealing through the waving boughs.
With melody enhancing "
As the maiden's whispered vows;
And the storm-wind, as it rushes
In its wild and mad career, ..f
The bravest bosom bushes ~
To a solemn awe and fear.
Fen the frosty rain of winter,
Hath cheerful minstreisy,
As the ice of morning falleth
From the tall and stately tree,
And the heart can feel no power
In the poets sweetest lay
Like the music of the shower
In some sultry Summer day.
OH I love the brave old forest,
That for centuries hath stood,
And waved its lofty branches
Grandly in the solitudel
Ny home is in its bosom
Where no human foot hath trod,
Ny companion, the wild blossom,
And my trust, in Natures God.

THE BLIND BOY AF PLAY.
By ELIZA COOK.

bI kLAlA C0Ok. isAa-f 81 E
The blind boys been at play, mother,
And merry games he had;
We led him on our way, mother,
And every step was glad;
But when we found starry flower,
And praised its varied hue,
A tear came trembling down his cheek,
Just like drop of dew.
We took him to the mill, mother,
Where falling waters made
a rainbow Ger the rill, mother,
As golden sun-rays playedl
But when we shouted at the scene,
And hailed the clear blue sky,
He stood quite still upon the bank,
And breathed long, long sigh.
We asked him why he wept, mother,
WheHe'er we found the spots,
Where periwinkles slept, mother,
Ger wild forget-me-nots.
"Ah mep said he, while the tears ran
down,
As fast as summer showers,
cit is because / cannot see
The sunshine and the flowers"
Oh, that poor sightless boy, mother,
Has taught me l am blest,
For can look with JOY, mother,
On all / love the best;
And when see the dancing stream,
And daisies red and white
I'll kneel upon the meadow sod, z5s
And thank my God for sight.

GEOLOGICAL Divisions OF OHIo.--
The grand geological divisions of this
State are well understood. The strata
dip easterly. At Cincinnati you are
upon blue limestone, the lowest rock
formation, geologieslly, in the State
Travelling esst-st Dayton and Xenia,
you come upon the outcrop of the cliff
limestone, which continues to Golum-
bus, where it is quarried for the new
State House; few miles east of Co
lumbus. it dips under the black slate
and in short distance the black slate
disappears under sandstone; this sand
stone is northern continuation of the
Wayerly sandstone of the old geologi-
cal survey; still continuing east, you
find that the Wayelry sandstone dips
under a coarse grained sandstone, in
some places made up of pebbles ce-
mented together, and frequently called
pudding stone. This is the conglomer-
ate-above which come the coal meas
ures, consisting of alternate beds of
sandstone, coal, limestone, slate and
iron ore. This conglomerate. or coarse
sandstone formation, is important as
furnishing a geological horizon, indi-
eating where we may expect to find coal
that is above it, and never below it..
Again take map of the State, and
draw a line from little east of Sandus-
ky City, through Columbus and Balm
bridge to the Ohio river, and the great
limestone formation is all west of this
line. Draw another, from near Cleve-
land, through Newark and Lancaster to
Portsmouth, and all the coal, iron or
slate, in workable quantities, lies east Of
this line Ohio CUltiUator.

PROCRASTINATION is THE THIEI

REPRESENTATION is THE THIEF
OF TIME.-Delay is dangerous-neglec that
cold and cough few weeks, and the hope of re.
covery will be lost to you forever. Let not any
pecuniary consideration deter you from trying to
save your life and health while there is chance,
Consumption is annually sweeping off thousands
to the to,hb; no disease has baffled the skill ol
physicians like it, no physician, perhaps has done
more for the cause of suffering humanity than DR..
Wistar. An "ounce of prevention is worth q
pound of cuIe;" therefore. before your lungs be.
come liberated, and so diseased that no human
means can save you from an early grave, try in
season, try at once, a medicine which has been oil
such infinite valve to thous ands-obtain bottle
of DR.. Wistsr's Balsam of Wild Cherry, take it,
get another if necessary, persevere in using it,
until you have removed the disease entirely
which if neglected will terminate your life.
PULMONARY CONSUMPTION
Has. until within few years, been generally
considered incurabie, although many medical meI
of the highest standing. among whom we nigh
mention Laennee and his friend Bayle-both dis
tlnguished authors-admit that this dreaded dis
ease may be cured, even in its advanced stages
when the lungs are not completely disorganized
The remedy which we now offer,
wISTAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY,
not only emanates from regular Physician. bu
has been well tested in all the complaints fo
which it is recommended, with entire success.

Nebraska.

II viii be seen, by reference to the sy-
inopsis Of the Congressional proceedings,
as published in to-day's paper, that the
Nebraska bill has been referred, in the
House. to the Committee Of the Whole on
the state Of the Union. The vote Of the
Ohio delegation was as follows:
YEAs-BaH, Bliss, Campbell, Coraoin,
Edgerton, Ellison. GIDDlNGs. Green, Har-
lan, Harrison, Johnson, Nichols, Ritchey,
Stuart. Taylor and WADE. Democrats 8,
Whigs6, Free Soilers 2.
Disney, Olds, and Shannon
Democrats 8.
ABSENT Lindsey and Sapp.-l DEM
ocrat. and Wing.
Washington city papers claim that the
bill will be reached and passed the present
session. Notwithstanding the reference tina,
has been made Of it. A bare majority, we
believe, is only necessary to take up q
bill in Committee of the Whole, out of its
regular order.

lives were lost, principally deck passen.
gers. Her cabin and deck were crowded
with passengers. The second mate was
among the persons lost. The snag struck
the bottom Of the boat and came up through
the deck where the fremen were stationed.
The Sultana picked up the survivors and
brought them to Natchez. 1t is thought by
many that she did not strike a snag, but
was swamped In the heavy gale that oc.
Cured about that time. She was loaded
very deep.
We are indebted for the above particu-
lars to Mr.. George II. Gray, one of the
clerks of the R. J. Ward. He obtained
this information from mail agent at Nat.
chez.
CINCINNATI, March 2O.-The officers OF
the lll-fated steamer J. L. Avery arrived
here to-day, and furnished full particulars
Of that disaster.
The boat sunk in two minutes after she
struck snag, the cabin parting from the
hull, and the latter went down in sixty feet
of water.
Mr.. Guthrie, the engineer, says that
the loss of life cannot be less than sixty or
seventy. including eight cabin and nearly
all the deck passengers. The boat had a
large and valuable cargo-all a total loss.
Insured principally in this city.

Explosion of the Reindeer

The Louisville papers Of Thursday, con-
tain full details of the explosion on the
Reindeer. Twenty.four of the victims
had died and were buried, and twenty.
eight more were dreadfully, if not fatally
scalded. The cpuse Of the disaster was
by the boats careening or listing to one
side, which threw the water into the boilers
on one side, and left the outside boiler with
but very little if any water in it, and the
hues were bare, and as soon as the boat
righted the sudden rush Of water on to the
naked and no doubt red hot flues caused
them to collapse. Both sides of the boiler
flew out, and all on deck in range, both
fore and aft, were doomed to destruction.
The mate, MIR. Mullen, was killed while in
the act of attempting to trim the boat.
