Death OF Lieut.. Gen. Scott.

Lieutenant General Winfield Scott
died suddenly at West Point on Tues.
day morning, the Goth of May. He
lacked but few days of being eighty
years old, as he was born at Petersburg,
Va, on the 18th of June, 1856. The old
veteran has been gathered to his faith.
ers. He was brave soldier, a distin.
guished and faithful citizen, and al,coys
devoted lover of his country. In none
Of the days of the Great Rebellion
showed he any sign Of wavering, and
he stood by the flag as nobly and fear
lessly after the treason of Virginia as
before. The memory of the departed
hero will DO gratefully cherished by his
oountrymen. He retired from active
service in the Spring of 1861. The dis
patch announcing his death ia as fol-
lows:
WEST POINT, x. ", May %.
Gen. Scott died at five minutes past
eleven O'Clock this morning. He was
out on Saturday afternoon, and then
showed 10 signs of his early demise
On Sunday he began failing quite fast,
though none of his physicians expected
he would expire at such an early day.
He was conscious up to the moment
of his death, and though he had lost his
voice two hours previously, he recog-
nized the chaplain Of the post ten min
utes before he died, and clasped his
hand in silence.

Buy Land.

A recent article in the New York
Tribune, from the pen of Horace Gree.
ley, urges every landless man to be-
come owner of some spot of earth SO
soon as may be-" Though land is now
amazingly cheap in most parts of our
country" he produces very good argu-
ment in proof that it is not destined
long to remain SO. Western people
generally know very well the truth of
his statement that "West of Kansas
and Nebraska there is little good land
But there are many who will take no
ones word for it, and can only be salts
fed of the fact after extravagant per-
sonal investigation. Thus we hnvo
such information as the following,
which we take from the Hamilton
Freeman:
"The tide Of immigration which has been
bound for the Northwest territories, has al
settled in different parts of the county, and
more of them are " prospecting" for locations
In this county. Their experience is but that of
returned to the central part Of Iowa and loca-
ted. All should satisfy themselves that they
would ice suited before they go too far
The fertile and cheap land of the
West is reckoning an immense immi
grafton from the older States and from
foreign countries. We dare say that
the transactions in real property in
Iowa for the past four months are I'M
equaled by any twelve months of prevl-
Gus time. Immigrant trains are COM
mon to the streets Of every village in
the State, and the people thus arriving
are mostly men with their families in
search of homes and farms. The land
in Iowa is being rapidly bought up by
actual settlers, and prices are tending
steadily upward. 1t will not be many
years hence that land now selling for So
and $40 per acre will be doubled and
threbled in value. Twenty years from
now, land in Iowa will reach an aver
age valuation of:$40 per acre. The pres
ent, then, is the golden opportunity for
landless men. A man of thirty years,
settled on an Iowa farm, has only to
keep his land, from which he can GER
