We publish this Information for two reasons:
First, that .bs people Of this section Hbs

the settlement Of land Titles. - 20 psrma-
neut and iassiog improvements can Of will
be made when the title and character Of the
land ('ninersl or sgricul,uran is 10 doub';
and, second, to give to our readsrs jus! such
information as We are pstsousll! asked tot
scores OF lmes eavh month, and thus relieve
ourssll Of a grsa, deal Of oral repetition on
this subject. The question Of title to the
soil is the foundation Of prosperity or de-
moraixalion Of all communities. An iulel'
ligeut man will no, pay for land or improve.
msut', no matter how good they are, if there
is cloud or doubt on tho title. The same
is equally true Of psrsoos Who desire to set
