FoRr SMELLING, MINNEsorA.-The Fort
Smelling reservation covers eight thou.
sand acres of beautiful land at the
junction of the Mississippi with its
most important tributaries north Of the
Illinois, the inevitable site of a future
city, and worth at least 800 per acre
now, or 100000 in gross, which sum
VIC believe it would have brought if
duly advertised and put up in lots at
auction. Besides the land, there are the
fort the extensive barracks, stables,
&c, which have cost the Government
not less than $4,000.
This immense property, rapidly aug
mcnting in value, has been privately
disposed Of for the beggarly sum Of
100000, only one-third of which was
paid down! There is here clear,
unmitigated Galphinism Of at least
Thrce-Quartcrs of Million Dollars !;
and whoever got the liberty to sell
cngraftcd on the Appropriation bill,
knows who has made this money.
