cured since the sailing of the Atlantic.
The public attention is centred in the
Vienna Conference, which was formally
inaugurated on the 18th ult. The
hopes and fears are about equally bal
anced as to the probabilities of peace.
From the seat Of war the most impor-
tant statement is that the allies have re-
opened their fire upon Scbastopol, with
good effect.
The Roebuck Committee is still engaged
in prosecuting their inquiries in relation
to the conduct of the war.
The manifesto of the new Csar to his

The "Star' of last evening states that
up to yesterday morning "a, 500 applica-
tons for bounty land warrants, under the
recent law, had been entered at the Pen
sion Bureau, and intimatcs q doubt as to
whether all the cases to be presented can
be disposed Of in less than three or four
years. We regard this as an extravagant
estimate; but, should the Government
conclude that even two years will be re-
quired for the completion Of this task by
the force now authorized, We trust that
this force may be promptly and largely
increased, The expectants of these boun-
lands are in general poor and aged per-
sons, and any ayoidable delay to consum.
mate the intentions Of the law for their
benefit will be alike ungraeious and crael.
1t is, moreover, desirable that Congress
should know. as early as possible, for its
guidance in future legislation, what quan-
tity of the public lands will be required
10 satisfy all the claimants under this law.
