The Railroad Land Grants.

We mentioned some time since, that
Gov. Randall had sent directions to the
several agents appointed to select lands
under the Railroad grants, t. tahe 10 ac-
ton until further instructed from the Ey-
ecutive department. We learn now that
Gov Randall has deemed it his duty to
send to the Land department q request
that no action be taken in fegar1 to the
issue of patents under the certificate given
by tie late Executive of the completion
of &c miles of railroad hy the La Crosse
IL Milwaukee r. r. Co, Gov. Randall
having doubts whether the Company has
complied with the conditions which being
fulfilled, would entitle them to such GER
tificate. By the terms Of the act under
which they expect to come in possession
of the Northwestern Land Grant, they
ere required to commence and build
the road from this city, which they have
neglected to do.
A statement appeared in the n. Y.
Express, sometime since, that the La
Crosse Company had obtained possess
ion of the Grant. On the contrary, they
have come in possession of no portion of
it.-MadiSoae State Journal.

EE- The lecture last Thursday evening
was well attended. Mr.. Morse entertained
the audience with pleasing description
of the social habits of our forefathcrs. We
learned that they drank whiskey, chewed
tobacco. went counting, DC, in fact were
altogether human beings, and som: of
them quite lusty sinners. We like to see
this view of the Puitans given sometimes.
1t brings them nearer to us. We have
no doubt but that the Puritans wore stee-
ple hats, stern faces, aud were in the main
grand and gloomy old fellows; but then,
there were the. common traits of human
nature which they must have had, and
awc like to sec them shown. The lecturer
appended a moral to the discourse, and
commented pretty sharply oil female fol-
lies and the besetting sins of " Dung A
merica." The next lecture will be given
by Mr.. G. w. Pratt The subject will be
announced in the next weeks Journal.
