Falls City.

In another column will be found an in
~teresting letter from Falls City. We
thank the writer for the compliment paid
us, and assure him and all others, that in
the future as in the past, either in private
or public capacities, no effort shall be ne
elected, calculated to develope and ad-
vance the interests of Nebraska, and es-
pecially the southern portion.
We rejoice with our neighbors that the
navigation of the Nemaha, to the Falls
IS no longer an experiment; hat over
the future prospects and importance of
Falls City no longer hangs a doubt. We
acknowledge frankly, that at first sight
of this place; the beauty of the site the
~inexhaustable water-power; the album
dance of stone and timber, and the vast
amount of u~nexcelled farming land around.
we were forced to admit Falls City more
full Of promise than any other point of
the Missouri river, it has been u for
tune to visit. In addition to the advanta.
ges which nature has bestowed, no poin.
can boast of more energetic and enter,
prising citizens. With such a combina,
ton, who can fail to prophesy~ correctly a:
to the future of this young city?

Areher-Half.Rreed Line.

In another column will be found a no.
tice relative to the town of Archer, in
Richardson county. We learn by Judge
FERGUSON, that by an act of Congress,
what is known as the "McKoy line," has
been established as the half-breed line.
This leaves Archer off the half-breed
land, and also relieves many settlers who
had spent their all in improving claims,
and had the "new line' been established
would have lost all. Too much credit
cannot be given E. s. Dundy, Esq, who
went on to Washington in person, and TO-
gether with our Delegate, succeeded III
accomplishing what has been done for the
settler.

Taxing Lands.

AS we stated last week, a floating par
agraph has been going the rounds both
through the press, and in private circles,
to the effect that the Supreme Court of
the United States had decided hat lands
sold by the General Government are not
taxable by the States or Territories until
the artual iOsue of the patent. We had
10 faith that the report was true. 1t was
so directly in the face of all right and
Justice; and we intended to have written
somewhat at length on the subject this
week. The following letter from Hon.
G. w. JONES, to the editor of the Du-
buque Express and Herald puts the mat,
ter to rest:
WASHINGTON, June Is, 1853.
SIR:I called on the Clerk of the Z.
S. Supreme Court, relative to the decis.
ion of the I. S. Supreme Court with re-
gard to the illegally of taxing lands be-
fore the issue of the patents. He informs
me that there is no such opinion given
and as he OWNS much land in the West
that it is subject to taxation, which would
be exempt under such a decision, if any
such has been made. He says the news.
paper report is without the least founda.

Support your County PaDer.

Recollect, if a home weekly paper is
to be supported, home influence must do
it. Every-dolIar sent to Eastern papers
is at an expense to local papers. The
county acquires prominence through its
papers, more than in any other way, and
to every n who has county interests at
stake, his home paper is a necessity.
Never will such a man take a paper prin-
ted away from home until he is able to
take a second paper. His first paper will
be his home sheet and he will so identify
his own interest with that of his county
paper as to consider his subscription as
much a matter of duty as the payment of
taxes Cleveland Herald.

PASSPORTS for France,

Mr.. Sartiges, the French Minister,
writes to Secretary Cass that the regula-
tons in regard to passports to France
have not been changed. The visa of a

and by exception the French Vice Con-
sui at Baltimore, as well as the Legation
of the Emperor at Washington, have the
power to grant these 'visas'. Carriers
bearing official dispatches of a foreign

eral rule in regard to the visa, on condi-
ton that they are provided with a pass
