Mr.. Gilman on the Land Sales.

Amongst the many startling assertions
made here by Mr.. Gilman in his discussion
with Mr.. Window, none was more astou?d-
ing than his dictum on the Land Sales
He told the settlers not to be uneasy, or
take any trouble about getting the means
to preempt their claims. There are no
spectators to buy their homes, Or if there
are, and they should actually buy the SET
tiers homes, all the;sett]ers have to do is
refuse to give possession until Douglas is
elected. Then he will refuse to give SAID
spectators patent. They. cannot hold
the land without one; and 50 will be COM
pclled to give it up to the original claim
ant and take back the money or lana
warrant without interest. >..><5..
Mr.. Gilman must certainly think the
peoI lie of Stearns County are .*born idiots."
He knows, and every lawyer in the State
knows, that the certificate Of purchase from
tho Land Office is perfect title ), that i.
iasbeen adjadged by our State Courts and
thc United States Courts that ! man cap
sell and transfer property on such certif-
cate and that the title he thus transfers
before the issuing of tho patent, is COM
plete in All respects Is though tho person
transferring had already his patent on rec.

Douglas has found hts mother,

We learn BY telegraph that Judge Douglas
arrived at Clifton Springs, New York, ON The
morning OF the 18th, and remained g the house
Of his mother till afternoon, when he addressed
an audience Of from fifteen to twenty thousand
people, He expressed pleasure tbat he had IN
opportunity Of relieving his Republican lriends
by announcing that he had At last found HE
mother: He expressed regret that Mr.. Lin
coin did not find it safe to. visit his birth-plsce
or the graves Of his srents for fear Of vio-
lence: He spoke for about two: hours.- P;o-
neer + Democrat, .,-..-..,
=. MI. Doaglas is becoming Is great !
fbber as his organs. That there 'wero.
"6fteen or twenty thousand people" at tho
little place Of Clifton SPRING, Is the trans
parent exaggeration Of some Douglasite,
while Douglas own assertion in the course
of his egotistical remarks, that Mr. Lin.
coin dared not visit the graves of his
father and mother, is falsehood that will
be duly appreciated when it is remembered
that one Of Mr.. Lincoln's parents is buried.
in Illinois aad the other in Indiana. But.
if Mr.. Douglas is insepsible to the obliRa-
tions of truth, it is some consolation to OBJ
serve that he il sensitive to ridicule. -
After wandering about 30 many weeks,
electioneering for the Presidency, while
pretending to be on his way to see his
mother, he has actually been shamed into
making her visit. He could not do 20
