truly the Indians are very fortunate in
having him to s~uperintend the first
steps towards Civilization, for his
knowledge Of the Indian character, to-
gether with his long experience upon
@the borders" peculiarly fits him for
the position. He is Just in from the
Reservation on Blue river, and from
him we gather the following items:
The Qtoes have very nearly fifty
acres Of melons and pumkins, which
MIR. LortOn planted for them with his
own hands. Because they insisted
that if melons We're planted BY Indian
labor, they would never attain ire
spectacle growth. But it has beer
discovered already, that these planted
at their request have never reached
any size larger than that Of common
apple. AID the reason is, that so sool
as it is outof the blossom, Mr.. Indian
euts it from the stem, peels it, AM
devours it at a single mOuthful, which
proceeding is decidedly against an,
further growth on the part of thI
melon. csc baa saG11 /.
They have some Of the finest corr
in the world, a kind which they hav
raised for years, and whichtheir father
raised before them. Il is avery fai

P~RE-1MPTToN DECISION.

In a case recently before the Com
missioner of the General Land Office
the testimony showed that the pre-
emptor, who was the owner of a farm
on which he resided in the same town
ship in which the tract claimed is situ-
ated, made a contract for its sale, re-
ceiving a portion only of the price, and
gave bond for a deed, conditioned to
be executed upon the payment in full
Of the price agreed upon. The title
Of the Fendee being defeasibIe by the
non-performance of the condition, the
fee simple was still in the vendor the
preaemptOrl and he was therefore such
an owner and occupant Of real estate
as to preclude him from acquiring a
right under the ~pre-emtion act5of Sep
tember A, 1841. The Commissioners
ordered that the entry be cancelled,
and the party required to apply in the
usual manner for the return Of the
purchase money.AW Washington Star,
