FALSE CHARGES Some time since we took
occasion to explode the story saying that Gov
ernor Walker had been engaged in land specu.
lations connected with the Fort Leayenworth
reserve. The Union sets all such ISLANDERS
at rest by making the following authoritative
declarations
1--WE have the best authority for saying that
the rumors la circulation about the speculation

and relatives, from their temporary resting
place In the Congressional Cemetery, to the
cemetery near Alexandria, Va, where the re-
mains Of many of his ancestors and relatives
have been inferred, some of them for perhaps a
century. Commodore Ms remains now lie
appropriately by the side of those of his imme-
diats parents.

frmation Of the story has reached the Navy
Department up to noon to-day, nor do the Noy.
folk papers Of yesterday say word to confirm
it. .'- II
PRorEsTs.-We hear, on authority in which
we place confidence, that both the English and
French Governments have taken occasion to
protest, through their Ministers here, to this
Government, against Walker, the flibuster's,
