Homestead Lands,


The following circular relates to all public
lands within railroad reservations, and it is
important to settlers on the line of the
California and Oregon Railroad:
DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR,
GENERAL LAND OFFICE,
August 5th 1866.
Gentlemen The Secretary the Interior,
under date of June 22d, 1866, decided that
pre- empton settler who had made his filing
on an odd section within railroad limits could
not change to a homestead, the following
being an extract from said decision;
"The homestead settlers right attaches
only from the date Of entry, the pre-emptor's
from the date of his actual personal settle
ment. The title in either case is consumma'
ted by a full compliance with the terms and
conditions imposed by law. The grant to
said company does not embrace lands to
which valid right arising either under the
homestead or pre- emption laws had previously
attached, but if such right be abandoned or
forfeited the grant would Immediately there
after take effect A pre- emptor cannot
abandon his claim as such or transmute it to
homestead entry so as to defeat the right of
the lmpany which Injured before such entry
be made.
If a pre-emption settlement had been
commenced upon surveyed land the latter
might be entered as a homestead before the
right of the company attached, but not at
subsequent date" Therefore,
lst, Settlers on such lands will be required
to establish and pay for their claims under
the pre- emption laws, and
I'd, In case any such settlers have made
entries. under the Homestead Act the same
will be suspended, and they will be required
to conform to this ruling of the head Of the
Department, and furnish proof and pay for
their claims under the pre- emption Act.
Very respectfully,
JOS. S. WILSON, Commissioner.
The railroad reservation, says the Appeal,
dates from the 25th day of November, :and
after this date homesteads cannot be located
on odd sections; and only so acres on even
sections.

THE HOLY CROSS.

Blest they who seek
While in their youth
With spirits meek
The way of Truth
To them the Sacred Scriptures now display
Christ as the only true and living way;
HIS precious blood Calvary was given
To make them heirs of endless bliss in Heaven.
And even earth the child of God can trace
The glorious blessings of his Saviour's grace.
For them lie bore
His Fathers frown;
For them lie bore
The thorny crown;
Nailed to the cross,
That His life's loss
Might be their gain.
Then haste to choose
That better part,
Nor cen dare refuse
The Lord thy heart,
Lest II E declare.
81 know you not -
And deep despair
Forever be your lot.
Now look TO Jesus who on Calvary died,
And trust in Him above who was crucifed

LINKS FROMMEOIORY's CHAIN

/ For the Sunday Appeal
Ten Years how small and short the
words yet what volume can be ex-
pressed therein Joy, such as rarely
comes but once in life time and sor-
row, bitter, heart-crushing sorrow, that
wears away youth and makes us old far
too soon.
Life is at best but an air-bloWn bub-
bic, floating on the oceans breast; one
hour encircled by the rainbow of bright
hopes, the next borne by the ebbing
tide, it sinks between contending pillows
and, awhile unseen is borne along, a
prisoner of hope and fear.
l stood lately, for the first time in
several years, beneath sturdy beech, on
the old "school-house playing ground =
whose gnarled and high projecting roots
had many a rustic seat in the long
ago" There were names rudely carved,
high as hand could reach, bymerry boys
and girls, who have since grown to men
and women's estate.
Tears of mingled regret and sorrow
came TO my eyes unbidden as beheld
them the thought involuntarily in
truded itself, are they happy now as
then ?"
turned, and to the left, overhanging
the small stream, rises a high messy
bluff where through long hours we
stayed building castles in Spain" and
vainly imagining we should never forget
the dreams and impressions that we so
fondly thought Time could never change
Twas there, remember, a young friend
told me the story Of her love, and how
faithfully 1 kept the secret She was
but child then, but since has married
the object of her early love.
Another fair friend had her lover,
too, Zone of the school boys, but ere
he had arrived to the dignity of a coat,
the shrill clarion notes of war sounded
through the land, and he buckled on his
knapsaek and marched away.
Hope was frail and passion heeting,
'Tis often 20;
Visions blrn OF golden sunsets,
With the sunsets 60"
When he returned she was already mar
ried.
High above the rest is the name of
the dearest, best friend l ever had. but
" the sparkling eye, the spirits shrine,
has shrouded its glory forever" She is
gone to a purer better world, where
g the wicked cease from troubling and
the weary are at rest. y
The visit to the old haunt of child
hood has done me good, bringing to
mind many dear mementoes of the past
that have long lain in the deep, still
chambers of the heart
The long shadows warned me to re
turn home. l sighed as l turned to re-
trace my steps, and slowly repeated that
sparkling dew-drop of DoT's:
