Irefer you to the report of the Secretary o
the Interior, which is herewith laid before you
for the useful and varied information In relat tior

TO his department.. The quantity OF iands die.
posed Of during the last and the fret quarter
OF the present fscal years, was three million
eight hundred and forty.one thoussnd, five
hundred and forty nine atres; OF which one
hundred and sixty-one thousand, nine hundred
and eleven acres were cold for oasb; one mil
lion, four hundred and fity.six thousand, Eve
hundred and fourteen acres, we're tlken up
under she homestead Law, and the residue dis
posed Of under laws granting lands for milissyy
bounties, for railroads and Uther purposes. 1t
also appears that the sale Of the public lands is
largely on the increase. Il has long been
cherished opinion of some Of our wise.t states.
men that the people Of the United States had
q higher and more enduring interest In the
early sttlement and substantial cultivation OF
the public lands, than in the amount Of direct
revenue to be derived from the sale of them.
This opinion has had q controlling iIfuenoe
In shaping legislation upon the subject Of our
national domian' may cite, as en- instance
Of this, the liberal measures adopted in refer
ence 10 active settlers and the grant to the
otate8 Of tne ovoiuoWeu lauus Witnin tneir
limits, In order TO their being reclaimed and
rendered fs for cultivation. The grant to rail-
road companies Of alternate tections Of land
upon the contemplated lines of their roads
when completed, will largely multiply the IA
oilities Of reaching our distant possessions.
Tais policy has received its most signal and
bensfcsns illustrstioa In recent enactmen.s,
granting homesteads 10 actual settlers. Since
The frat day Of January last, the before-men
tened quantity Of ! .456, ,5i4 acres Of land has
been taken up under i.s provisions. This fact,
and the amount OF sales, furnish gratifying
evidence Of the increasing settlement upon the
public lsnds. Notwithstanding the great
struggle In which the energies Of the nation
have been engaged, and which has required 90
large q wishdraWal Of our cIuzens from their
pursuits, cordially concur IN the
Recommendation Of The Secretary Of the In.

Curiosities Of the DRAFT.

The conscription has begun in
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and
Massachusetts,. In many instances
the fate worked curiously. In one of
the districts of Pittsburg the man who
drew the ballots was himself drafted.
Quite q number ofpersons were draft
ted twice, having been entered in two
Wards. r r
The Chronicle gives some other
cases which are singular. 1t
says:
''In one.instance three, and in sew
eral instances two, were drawn from
the same family. From st. Nicholas
Hotel some half-a>dozen altogether
was drawn yet Of the immense num-

tnnate enough to secure a prize. Mr..
Houston, of Smith6eld street, had his
two sons drawn, and our champion
oarsmen and his brother were also
among the elect. Indeed we are
told that there was one or more drawn
from every house on the lower side
of Smithield street, betw cen Dismond
alley and Second Street, while those
residing on upper side got off COM
paratively free. But the most singu-
lar features Of yesterdays draw ing
was the large number of Germans
drawn in Third Ward. Every one
supposed the Celtic element would
be largely represented among the
conscripts from this district, but a
glance at the names of those drawn
in the Ward indicates an entirely diff
4 ferent result. Indeed, it would seem
as there were many more Germans
that Celtic drawn, though the num-

A man in Ottawa county, Michigan, while
plowing with his oxen, received from q
neighbor two hundred dollars in green backs,
which for safe keeping, he placed it in the
bottom of his dinner pail in his wagon.
While away short distance, the OK ate his
dinner and money, and left him the aiterna-
tive of killing one or both to secure the
greenbtcks. He concluded to dispatch the

public veal demands it. The par
ticular kind Of organization we have
in view in making this suggestion is

dent, as a nation. for taking such a
step, or at least making the proposal,
the example ofthe English, Swiss,
and German nations may be cited in
evidence ofthe popularity with which
such a system is regarded abroad.
Similar bodied of militia, SO to speak,
are also recruited in France, but
they are by no means popular convo.
cations, and are under the surveill-
ance Of the authorities. With pro-
found sense of the necessity which
exists anongourselves for the recruit
ing and forming of snch companies,
we unite an earnest desire to see our
suggestion acted upon without delay.
Any person are all conversant with
the history of the hour can readily
preceive the inestimable value of such
bodies of men and the practical use
to which they could be put. Rifle.
men in particular are the most eff
cient infantry in tho world when
properly handled, and all generals
take special care to guard against
exposing their troops to their gallant
fire. Mechanics make the best rifle
men in the world, as they do also
the most versatile soldier. The rec-
ord ofthe war is full of instances
wherein tradesmen have thrown down

ners, completed their labors in ibis
line, and then resumed their guns

have been ready to attack the enemy
either with spade or musket, and
have skillfully and cheerfally:perform-
ed labors, against the time, that were
not within the legitimate range of
the particular corps to which they
belonged. Ifthese glorious achieve
ments can be cited of those artisans
now in the ranks, why can we not,
in perfect confidence that our voice
will be needed, call upon other work
men still at home to organize bodies
of riflemen, to form themselves into
clubs of home-guards. and be willing
to defend that home, either on its
doorstep or 5000 miles from it |?

stout of heart, no better materials

In some instances military organiza4
tion have contented themselves with
parades, holiday affairs, suppers,
camping out in the woods of some
watering place in close proximity to
a fine hotel, in short, doing everything
except face the foe. We are conf
dent that no such shortcomings as
these could be recorded against regi.
ments of hard-fsted, stout-hearted
workmen, and we urge them, in what
ever State of the Union they may be
to take steps to form companies with
