Colonel William b. Yancey a Democrat and
member Of the last Legislature of Virginia for the
the county Of Rockingham, in response to call
upon him for his opinions on the question OF land
distribution thus speaks:
1T cannot be denied that the great question
now before the American people, is the disposi-
ton of the public lands. The current Of public
events has brought the subject before US 10 a man
ner which iorbids US TO question either its para
mount Importance or the necessity Of its immedi-
date consideration. The decision must shortly be
made, or the question win speedily be decided by
the numerical strength Of the Western States,
whether the vast domain coded TO the General
Government for the common good Of all the States,
shall be voted away to enrich our Western breth-
ren, whilst the Atlantic States shall be denied all
participation in the blessings TO be derived from
the common fund. Surely Virginia, whose deyo-
ton to the common veal induced her to sacrifice so
much OF her soil at the altar OF the Union, should
not nov, with arms folded, allow this rich treasure
10 be diverted from its legitimate object 10 enrich
the Younger members Of the coniederacy. We
know that our share would, in great measure, re-
lieve US from the burdens Of constantly increas-
ing taxation, enable US TO complete our internal
improzeme nts, and 70 establish and foster useful
system OF common schoolinstruction. There Is no
question as 20 whether the public lands are going
ia open violation Of the letter aud spirit Of the deed
of cession. We have only 10 decide whether we
will have our share.
Il am aware that the policy Of distribution is
objected 70 on the ground that 10 distribute the
public lands would diminish the resources OF the
General Government aud thus compel Congress TO
increase the duties upon our imports. This objec.
ton il entirely erroneous. The fact that the large
Donations 20 the new States bring the best lands Ia
70 competition sith the government sales, produ.
ees the result, that for many years past, lhe Gen
eral Government has been a loser by the sales Of
the public lands Take, for instance, the year 1851

of the same category, are still further and for
ever to be excluded from our just equality, in
fact DISTINGUISHED of our portion of a common
patrimonyl 1t will not do to say, that tits
unconstitutional to appropriate money out of
the federal treasury for the benefit of the
States as individuals. Whether this position
is true or not in respect to that portion of the
public revenue drawn from the Ordinary
sources, it is wholly untrue and incorrect in re-
lation to that derived from the public lands
In these the States have rights independently
of legislatioD. 1t is part of the capital stock
of the Union, which cannot be diverted from
lis purpose, or changed in its character, by its
conversion into cash, and mingling in the cof-
fers of the general government. If it islaw-
fol 10 grant lands 10 one State, it is lawful
also to make similar grants to others-if it is
to the convenience and interest of one State, to
receive the lands in kind, and inconvenient
for another to so receive them, this does not
make it right that the latter should be de-
priged of its right, but it creates necessity
that it can be admitted to it's fair and proper
share. When the government undertakes TO
manage this fund, lit undertakes to do so with
that Justice to all and it becomes its duty to see
tbisjustice is secured to MI. Following the pri-
mary principle of our Equity Courts, if we fed
ourselves unable to make division of an es'
tate in kind, it becomes our duty to make sale
and divide the proceeds among the claimants.
Or, to make the parallel more complete, if an
advancement has been made to por ion of
the claimants while others have received no
part, or a very considerable part, of common
fund, we are bound first to dispense justice by
making them all equal, before proceeding to
final division, and this by sale or other process
which will accomplish the end without detri-
ment either TO the estate or to the owners
These principles and positions are so clear, so
easily comprehended, and SO palpably just, that
it seems to Us that they ought at once to COM
mend themselves to the approval of the judg-
ments and feelings of all men, irrespective Of
party. For our part, we have no fancy for
that Procustean philosophy, which stretches
out and chops off political members, to suit
constitutional construction within. Much less
do we approve of that boosted championship
of State rights, which fosters some to the ex-
cluson and detriment of others-which is true
to one and false to another portion of the IN
ion.
Having now given the facts, and disposed of
the first and most plausible objection TO the
measures advocated by the American party,
in relation to the public lands, we shall pro-
coed, in future articles, to discuss the proprie-
ty and expediency of those measures. We shall
undertake to show, what detriment Tennessee
has sustained by the past aud present policy of
the general government, and to fix the respon-
sbility of this unjust policy, upon its proper
authors and adVoctes.
