the premises shall be placed in proper charge
for the pre- emptOr, so that residence and Gull

been fully complied with. the grounds of eX-
emptiOn should be established, when the prov

The Great Army in Kentucky

The movement of troops from Indiana,
Ohio and the Dalt fields of Western Vir-
GINA, is now towards Kentucky and the
army in Missouri will probably not long
hence be concentrated along the river, maxi
ing combined force OF not less than l0O,-
900 men for grand winter movement on
Memphis, Nashville and East Tennessee
The Cincinnati Commercial says:
The programme of operations with the
Army Of the West can only be copjectured
but it is safe to say that appearances indi.
cate the passage of the Cumberland Gap by
a competent force-the driving of Buckner
across the Cumberland river, and grand
expedition down the Mississippi. The
gunboats and floating batteries being built
for river service are nearly ready, and the
date of their completion will not be far
from that of the advance.

MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL AZ
FAIRS. :.

at our latest dates from New York,
money was dull at six per cent. on call
loans and was in good supply for first>class
paper which is taken freely at 81 and ~.
Very high rates were obtained for paper
not strictly speaking frst-class. Houses
that have thus far met their liabilities will
most likely be able to weather the storm.
Capitalists look with suspicion on men
whose names are associated with two or
three per cent. month, and are unwilling
to touch paper representing claims in the
Southern States. We are inclined to the
opinion that we have seen the worst side of
the war. In the initiatory in accommodating
clothing, and feeding our vast army, both
East and West, the power OF the govern.
ment in its money resources has been
thoroughly tested, and money is now more
abundant today than at the commencement
of the war. The government has not been
Inconvenience in Its operations by the
heavy drafts made upon it, and every mo-
ment its power is augmenting to crush out
the rebellion. The hoplessness of the rebel
cause, is every day becoming more apparent.
There has been decided increase in the
traffic on our Northern lines of railway over
last year. When navigation closes on the
lakes and rivers, the increase must be great,
as all the food wanted for export to Europe,
and the vast amount of goods necessary for
the supply of the West, will have to be
transported over the main lines between
New York and the West. The Mississippi
has heretofore supplied all this vast country
with sugar, coffee and other articles, which
will now necessarily have to be brought by
rail-
The public have taken ABOUT $50, 100000
Of 100 Treasury Notes, and $l3,00O,OOO
of United States demand Notes: By the
first of January over one hundred million
of Treasury Notes, of different kinds, will
be 10 circulation. This, in addition to the
circulating medium, must have decided
beneficial effect upon the commercial inter-
ests of the country.
Our latest advices from New Orleans,

The Richmond Examiner says: 8" with
pride and pleasure We record the gratitude
of the Southern people in announcing that
no less than thirty thousand dollars, made
up by the free will offerings of men, women
and children, now stands to the credit of the
widow and children of the martyr jackson,
the brave Alexandrian, who fell in defence
of the flag of his country. Should the ma
RAIDERS penetrate to our hearthstones, we
trust that they will find that the example Of
jackson is not lost upon the fathers, bus
bands, sons and brothers of our city"

GENERAL l. ND CFFIcE,
October %. 1861.
GOODWIN WILSON. Esq, st. Augusta, MINI.
SIR: Your letter of the lst instant has been
received, requesting for your son, J. w. Viii
son, an extension of time to enable him to pay
for his presumption claim. based on settlement
in December last. on the E. S,W. and w. ]
S, +. IL, l23. %, being land subject to pri-
vate sale, having been offered on the It'll No
vember, 1859.
The 18th section of the presumption act of
the 4th September, l84I, declares that if pre-
emptor claiming land subject to private entry
shall fail to g make the proof, affidavit and
payment" therein required, within twelve
months after the date of settlement, 1" the
tract of land so settled and improved shall be
subject to the entry of any other purchaser"
AS the statute thus fixes limitation of
twelve months from the date of settlement
within which the pre.emptor shall pay for the
land, it is not in the power of this office to en-
large the period for payment.
which stipulates in case of forfeiture, that the
"land shall be subject to the entry of any
other purchaser" means that it is subject to
disposal to others for cash. but is not liable to
be taken by location of Bounty Land Warrants
because Congress in the Bounty Land Act of
September %, 1850, has expressly shielded
such settlement and cultivation tracts from
such locations, except with the consent of snch
settler, to be satisfactorily proven to the pro-
per land officer.
Very respectfully your obedient servant,
j. NJ. EDMUNDS, Commissioner.
