The following letter from the Commission
err of the General Land Office, is in answer to
one addressed to that gentleman by Hon. H.
M. Rice, in relation to tie powers of U. S.
District Judges in certain cases. We pub
lish it for the information of all interested:
4.sf GENERAL LAND OFFICE March I'd, 1857.
Hon. III II. Rice, House Of Representatives.:
SIR : have the honor to return herewith
the letter to your address from N. H. Hem
iup, dated at St. Anthony, Feb. 10th, Isl,
and received from you this morning, and in
reply have to state, that there is no founda-
ton for the report therein referred to, to the
effect that this Office has recently decided
that 6 Territorial Judges in Minnesota are
not County Judges within the provision of
the statute of the L. S. pertaining to town
sites" ~
On the contrary, we have ever held that
an entry under the act of May 23d, IA, by
Judge of the District Court of the q. S.
for the Territory of Minnesota, as Judge
of the County Court of the County in
which the land is situated, in virtue of his
commission as such District Judge, is such a
compliance with the law, as to the manner
or mode of entry, as will authorize its al
lowance. Such entry of course being, in the
words of the law in trust for the several
use and benefit of the occupants of the town.
according to their respective interests.
Very respectfully, your ob't servant,
led THos. A. HENDRICKS, Commissioner.

The Minnesota Land Bill.

We publish elsewhere, this morning, the
Minnesota Land Bill as it passed Congress,
with the exception of the amendment grant
ing lands to Alabama. The grant is most
liberal in its character, and insures the early
construction of every road named in the bill,
and consequent speedy development of the
resources of the Territory. We presume
the Commissioner of the Land Office will at
once close all the Minnesota Land offices
west of the Mississippi River until the Ter
ritorial Legislature shall have made proper
disposition of the lands granted in the bill,
and the various lines shall have been deter
mined. If the Minnesota Legislature shall
have adjourned before intelligence of the ac-
ton of Congress reaches St. Paul, it is prob
able that Gov. German will convene that
body in special session at an early day. A
brilliant destiny is dawning upon Minnesota.
Chicago Democratic Press. $50
The Press, lately has got hold of some
over wise man to do up it's Minnesota items.
He not only appears to know more about our
business up here than we do ourselves, but
he must even take sides with st. Peter on
the Capital m.ving question. Is the Press
certain that Gov. German, or any other
Governor, has the legal power to call an extra
session?

We trust that the able and convincing
communication from the pen of Hon. JOHN
NJ. BERRY, which we to-day copy from the
Faribault Herald, will be read by every
voter of Minnesota, into whose hands this
number tf the Minmesotiam may fall. Mr..
Berry came here, at the opening of the Leg
islature in January, as the Representative Of
Mower County-if not an East and West
line man, at least strongly inclined that way.
We know he took an unprecedented view of
the question throughout; listened to all the
arguments on both sides, and finally arrived
at the conclusions which he foreshadows in
this first communication addressed to the
thinking men of Southern Minnesota. 1t is
to be hoped Mr.. Berry, will in accordance
with an intimation here given, keep on
writing upon this subject.

We saw yesterday a letter addressed by
M. o. Walker, Mail Contractor, to j. G. Ter
ry, Esq, of our Post Office, asserting in
terms that he defied any one to prove that
any mail bag, directed through to st. Paul,
had been left off at any way station during
the past winter Walker has the further
impudence to offer fifty dollars reward to
any one who will prove that he does not
state the truth in this instance.
A man who would thus offer pitiful
bribe-a bride which no ordinary loafer
would take-to prove what he himself
knows to be lie, is not fit to handle, or
have charge of, the mail bags of two-penny
village--to say nothing of the immense con-
tract he has failed all the while to perform
between Dubuque and St. Paul
Mr. Walker, we assert aah proof did not
deliver newspaper mail at St. Paul on Sat-
urday of last week or Sunday of this week,
although letter mails arrived on both days.
The Dubuque Post Office reports that the
agents of Walker refused to take those
mails from that Office, in accordance with
contract.
How long are we to suffer from this deri-
LECTION of duty on the part of faithless
contractor, who will first violate his con tract,
and then try to lie himself clear of his
faithless ness?

Our Courts.

e The only action which Congress took to
provide for the holding of courts in Mime
sofa, appears to be embodied in the follow
ing, which comprises section in one of the
appropriation bills. We are not yet certain
that this new provision displaces the diff
culties occasioned by the inconsiderate act
of last year ejogI IAN a.ft
And be it further enacted, That the
Judges Of the Supreme Court in the Terri
tory Of Minnesota, are hereby authorized to
hold court within their respective districts in
the counties wherein by the laws of said
Territory, courts have been, or may be es-
tablished, Provided the expenses thereof
shall be paid by such counties respectively.

Kansas.

The st. Louis Republican of the 18th con-
tains the Farewell Address of Governor
Geary to the People of Kansas" 1t is mere
ly brief history of the short official career of
the Governor in that unfortunate Territory.
IN which he justifes his course, complains
bitterly of the want of aid from the Federal
arm to sustain him in maintaining law and
order, and shows clearly that he has not
failed in doing his duty to crush out Border
Rufianism, so far as was in his power. o.D
But Gov. Geary has been compelled to
leave Kansas, and give up the execution Of
all his well devised plans for the future as
useless undertaking. The Border Ruffians
were too strong for him. The fate of Free
Kansas is now more enshrouded in gloom
and uncertainty than ever before. The end
is not yet. - 'S71s 9tfQ

Admitting, for the sake of merely allud-
ing to the matter, that the ridiculous mea-
sure of removing the Capital to st. Peter
was not dead many weeks since that in
fact it once had vitality, we think we may
safely assert that the appointment of Col.
Medary as Governor will end the farce very
summarily. Of course, we merely speak
from our knowledge of the common sense
and legal judgment of the man. He, per-
haps, will not form any opinion upon the
subject until he arrives here but we are
entirely willing to trust to what that opin::
ion may be. fi~s ~ PIX .92hto

RIVER IrEM.-The Dubuque Express and
Herald Of the 18th, says, "The prospects for
the speedy opening of the Mississippi are
still frightening. The weather is gradually
softening, and the ice in the river is com
mencing to overflow and rot by the action of
the sun, and if the present warm spell con-
tinues, in very short time the travel across
the ice will be stopped. We have now
prospect Of rain, and hope to have it, as a
steady rain for two or three days would eff
open the river. The steamboat
men are actively engaged in preparing their
various craft for the spring trade. In our
streets may be seen crowds of men depend
INT on the river, anxiously swaiting its
opening" ..l1sali.osj-a.

BLooMINGToN.-This new town, recently
laid out on the Minnesota river in Hennepin
County already begins to assume the ap-
pearance of a business place. The proprie-

which will be ready for occupancy on the
opening of navigation this spring. Bloom
ington occupies beautiful site through
which the main thoroughfare up the Valley
of the Minnesota passes. For further parti-
culars concerning this point and its improve
ments we would refer our readers to Mr.. j.

The recent decision Of the Supreme Court

that 'fre" is not one of the "perils of navi-
CATION" unless expressly stated in the bills
of lading Of steam and other vessels, has in
duced an important movement on the part
Of masters and owners of freighting vessels
AT meeting held at the Exchange Rooms
on Friday last, it was resolved to add "fire"
to the exceptions usually contained in bills
of lading; and that no bills of lading be
signed by officers of boats not containing the
clause, dangers of navigation and fire only
excepted" The full proceedings are pub
lished in another column. 1t is supposed
that the interests in other cities will follow
up this movement, and very soon it will be
acquisced in as very reasonable exception
in all contracts of this kind.

SIGN OF SPRING.-The crows on Saturday
were making the hills of West st. Paul
noisy with their harsh but welcome music.
This is sure indication that spring is al
ready the season of the year without refer
ence to the almanac. AS the birds were
highly perched upon the tallest trees on the
bluff, the event afforded a certain Hastings
man very good opportunity to get off a
wicked pun in connection with the recent
vote for county seatin Dakota. He remarked
that those must be Hastings crows, as they
were caoving oUer West St. Paul. eaT
