University Lands

are being generally circulated in the Co.
praying the Legislature to reduce the
price of School aud University Lands.
Something of this kind will be attempted
at the next session of tie Legislature and
we hope the effort will succeed. Many
of the occupants of those lands went on
to them before the apprisal, expecting to
get them at Government price, and when
the lands were priced, they were obliged
to receive them at the apprisal or lose
their improvements. Most of this land
in this section is timber, and the settlers
have but little cle:. red, and find it very
difficult to pay the yearly interest. A
redustion of the price would be an act Of
justice to the settlers, and would greatly
aid in the improvement of the lands.
