up the amount you are defaulters to the
State, and we shall begin to consider
whether your repentance is such, that we
can lntruSt YOU with the affairs of govern

by asking to be restored to power, rather
than that return to plumber is all you

wholesale plunderings and peccadillos,
commencing with the Five Million Loan

But TO return to the subject of
Swamp Lands. We are informed by the
Commissioner that the utmost diligence,
consistent with accuracy, will be used to
bring these lands into market at an early
day. There has been forwarded at this
Office, blank forms Of affidavits to be used
in case of those who wish to enter their
claims under the presumption clause
The forms are of t1co hiadS one in case
of actual settlers, and the other for those
who occupy adjoining lands. Thousands
arc waiting to make rush for these lands,
when the day of sale comes in. The actu-
al settler ca1 buy them and pay one .tourth
down; whereas the SPECTATOR, the ldnd-
Aarh pays the full amount in cash on

law brings them within the reach of all.
There are enough good lands among them
