HOMESTEAD BILL.-Bounty and Railroad
land grants are rapidly encroaching on the
public domain. Let the railroad monopolies
go on unchecked, extending, multiplying, COM
plicating their interests, and they will in time
become strong enough to prevent any other
disposition of the public lands. How happens
it, that the Homestead Bill, so often brought
forward in Congress, so generally approved by
the People, so strong hitherto in the House of
Representatives, has not been once mentioned
this session? Are there no friends of the
measure on the Committee on Public Lands /?
True, bill to grant l60 acres of the public
domain to the landless man, free of cost, might
be OF no special interest to any member of
Congress. Members are not apt to be land.
less; or, if they are, they prefer professional
labor to the cultivation of the soil; but legis.
lStors are of course intent on the public good,
and do not need the Intervention of selfinterest
to quicken their efforts for its promotion. To
put through such bill would be a labor of
love; so obviously disinterested, that we should
think honorable members would be eager to
take part in the work.
Come, let it not be said, that Congress
in which the Republicans were strong enough
to elect the Speaker of the House, a bill to
grant land to the landless, was never intro
duced Whatever you may do about Pacific
railroads, and railroad grants, here, at least,
you may unite in an act Of universal bene6-

ILLNESS OF DIR. KANE.-The latest accounts
from Havana represent DR.. Kane as very i'll,
with little prospect Of recovery. A letter dated
the 29h ultimo says:
DR.. Kane, The Arctic explorer, arrived here
from England on Christmas day, but very low
from the effects of stroke of paralysis on the
passage out. He seems a little better since
landing, but his physicians think it is very
doubtful if he ever leaves here. Spanishlike.

not try competition? Take away the patent

Why tax twenty.eight millions to enable twenty
four hundred gentlemen to live in luxury, with
out being obliged, like other people, by COM
petition, to apply themselves to the intelligent
development of the materials and resources
within their power?
Give us free sugar General Houston, OF
Texas, in giving notice Of a bill to suspend the
duties on sugar, shows disposition to conhde
in the ability of his people, at least, to raise
sugar without the aid of protection.
But, say many DIRECTORS, What is the use
of repeating one tax, and suffering others to
remain? If we cannot have a revision of the
whole tariff system, let the whole stand. That
is, because we cannot remedy all grievances,
we should remedy none. Let US do the good
that is now praeticable-extirpate at once an
ugly tumor, if we cannot at once renovate the
whole system.
But, we fear combination Of local inter
ests will defeat the populer will. Classes, after
all, have many epresentatves-the People, but
few. Many Southern men will rally around
the sugar planter, and warn the iron men to
beware: and the iron men, in fear, will admon-
ish the advocates of wool protection to take
care: and the woolen and cotton protection
lists will begin to look to their peculiar inter
ests, and railroad jobbers tremble for the
safety of their magnificent land schemes and
