LAND REGIsTER,9 OFFICE, |
Olympia. Oct. Is. 1859.

To The Editor of Pioneer and Democrat:
As there appears to be a misunderstand-
ing on the part of those persons desiring
the beniit Of the Presumption Act, l desire
to call the attention of all parties Interested
to the following extract from a letter re-
ceived at this Office by the last mail
"Where unoffered land that is surveyed
is claimed by pre-emption, the law requires
declatory statement to be filed within
three months after settlement, and | am
therefore of the opinion that an entry of
the land is not contemplated till after the
three months expire, unless it is proclaimed
to be offered at public sale before the three
months have elapsed.
In the two cases before us, the settle
ments are respectively dated the day be-
fore the entry or location. Proof of such
a beginning does not authorize a cOnsum-
nation, which rewards in advance what
may never be forthcoming, and, in the Ian
guage of the Hon. Secretary, what the law
forbids, viz: the sale Of public land at pri-
vate entry before it has been offered at
public sale You will, therefore, except
"Heh tnlOubh tuO oPpi0"Su vi u Pu"iiS VI
fering or otherwise, proper exception may
arise, permit no settler on unoffered land
to prove up and enter until at least three
months of settlement and improvement hare
been proUen, to establish the good faith Of
the settler, not otherwise so evident as to
enlitle him to a right of pre-emption.
A." In the present cases, the parties re-
spectively will be called upon for eOntin-
HatiOn Of the improvements and residence al
legged an behalf Of each at The time he tOas al
Loa0ed TO prOrs up"
In compliance with the above instruc-
tions, all persons who have entered land at
this Office under the Presumption Act, and
who have not complied with the law as
construed by the Secretary of the Interior,
will be called upon for completion of the
proof before patent can issue.
Very respectfully, your ob't serv't,
VIM. NJ. RANDALL,

WELCOME HoME.-The bark Glimpse,
Capt. A. B. Cow, arrived here on Mon
day evening last, from San Francisco, heav-
lily laden with merchandise for this place.
Owing to southerly and battling winds since
his arrival in the Sound, the Captain has
not made one Of bis usually short passages
this time.
As no sailing vessel runs regularly be-
tween this place and San Francisco at this
time, We trust the Glimpse will hereafter
be placed upon this rou,e, being confident
that with Cow as her commander, she
would secure the entire carrying patronage
Of our merchants and citizens, with whom
he is favorite, and prove lucrative in
vestment for her owners. We hardly think
she could be placed in more profitable
trade. Try it.

EXTENSION OF THE BASE LINE OF ORE
GoN.-The General Land Office is in receipt
of Information from the Surveyor General
of Oregon Of the extension of the base line
Of public surveys in that State across the
Cascade Mountains, and terminating l49
miles east of the summit Of those mount.
aims and within three miles from the Blue
Mountains The base line passes about
five miles south of Fort Dalles FIVE miles
south Of the bridge over Des Chutes river;
and twelve miles south of Indian Agency
on Umatilla river.
We understand that instructions are be-
ing prepared by the General Land Office
to the Surveyor General to establish a
guide meridian on the line between ranges
thirty and thirty-one east Of Willamette
meridian, or very near the longitude Of the
Fort Of Walla Walla, from the base line
north, so as to afford the necessary data to
the Surveyor General Of Washington Ter
ritory for the extension of the public sur
veys in his district, east of Cascade Mount
aims, counting from the same principal me-
ridian. The instructions direct the termi-
nus Of the guide meridian to be on the
forty-six degrees north latitude, the boun-
dairy line between Oregon and Washing
ton, unless the extension of the guide
reaches the Columbia, for in that case the
river will be the terminus and upon the
completion thereof the Surveyor General is
directed to transmit the information of the
particular spot at which that line will end,
so as to enable the Surveyor General of
Washington to take it up aud continue in
his district in the neighborhood Of Walla
Walla, and prepare the groundwork for his
future surveys east of the Cascade Mount
aims Washington Star, Aug. %.

and small pox have been raging at Sierra
Leone most fearfully, and have carried of

hundreds Of the blacks. Business is very
dull on the coast. Her British Majesty's
brig Heron was capsized in a tornado on
the 18th of May, about 200 miles from
Sierra Leone The only survivors were
the captain and twenty seamen out of the
whole ships crew. A bark of about 400
tons, supposed to be SLAYER, was carried in
to Sierra Leone May 4th, having been
by the Heron in about 10 north
latitude, having neither papers nor colors.
She was taken about the 18th April.
