Commissioner of Indian Affairs, arrived in this
city last evening, and entered upon his duties
this morning. We had occasion, few days
since, in announcing this gentleman's appoint
ment to the high and responsible position which
the President has assigned him, to refer to the
peculiar merits required for such trust, all
which, as we stated them, this gentleman pos
sesses in an eminent degree; but we cannot for
bear inserting the following extract from the
Daily National Democrat, published at
Cleveland, Ohio, which shows that his talents
are appreciated abroad as we'll as at home:
I" If there ia one Government bureau more than
any or all others that requires a of energy and
| stern and dndoubted honesty, united to high tai.
ent and industry that bureau Is the Commission
ership of Indian Affairs, and, unless are greatly
deceived the President has found that in the

with the Indian Characterization many years a resi-

IN IMPORTANT DECISION OF THH GENERAL
LAND OFFiCE.-The following decision has been
made by the Commissioner of the General
Land Office, in reference to case which re-
Gently came to the Land Office for adjudication:
The case referred to is that of qualified citi-
zen who, settling upon n piece Of unoccupied
iand, erecting dwelling thereon and occupy
ing IT, was, before completing his right, and
while In the occupancy of his claim, arrested
by legal process under Territorial law. charged
with high crime, and in default of bail was
imprisoned to await his trial, which did not
take place till after the public Offering of the
lands to which the claim belongs Under this
state OF facts the question arises, Is his right
forfeited by his arrest and incarceration, and
the land open to settlement, or does he retain
the right acquired prior to his arrest9
The Commissioner decides that, in the case
stated, the inchoate right to the land so settled
ana occupied prior to the arrest would not
thereby become forfeited, but would remain in
abeyance to await tho determination of the
criminal court against him. The Commissioner
further decides that if his inchoate right was
valid up to the time of his arrest it is not for
felted by that act; aud that no advantage can
De taken OF the claimant by reason of his arrest
ana imprisonment; and if the public sale of the
lands within which his claims lies shall take
place previous to his discharge or trial it would
not be proper to offer at public sale tho tract
so claimed. The arrest of the party does not
destroy, but suspends only his right until no is |
restored to liberty. In the event of tho party's
conviction Of an infamous crime other questions |
ARISE, upon which the Commissioner does NOT |
feel called in the present instance to make 81 |
decision. -
