acres were taken under the home
stead law, and 215, ,95I, ,531 acres sold
for cash. The remainder was loea-
ted with military warrant, college or
Indian scrip, or appliedin satisfaction
Of grants to railroads or for other pub
lie uses. The entries under the
homestead law during the last year
covered 951, ,545 acres more than those
during the preceding year. Surveys
have been vigorously prosecuted to
the full extent Of the means applica-
ble TO the purpose. The quantity Of
land in the market will amply supply
the present demand. The claims of
the settlers under the homestead or
the pre-emption laws are not, how
ever, limited to lands subject to sale
at private entry. Any unapprOpria-
ted surveyed public land may to q
limited amount, be acquired under
the former laws, if the party entitled
TO enter under them will cOmp - with
the requirements they prescribe IN re-
gard TO residence and cultivation BY
the actual sttlers. Preference of right
Ofpurchase is even broader, and ex-
tends To lands which were uusury ey-
ed at the time OF his settlement. His
right was formerly confined within
much narrower limits, and at one
time in or history was conferred on
ly by special statutes. They were en-
acted from time to time to legaliZe
what was then regarded as an IN
authorized intrusion upon the nation
al domain. The opinion that the
public lands should be regarded chief
ly a. a source of revenue is no longer
maintained. The rapid settlement
and successful cultivation Of them Is
now justly considered of more import
ance to our well being than is the
fund which the sale Of them would
produce. The remarkable growth
and prosperity of our new states and
territories attest the wisdom of the
legislation which invites the tiller of
the soil to secure a permanent home
on terms within the reach Of all. The
pioneer who incurs the dangers and
privations of frontier life, and thus
aids in laying the foundation of a new
commonwealth, renders a signal ser
vice to his country, and is entitled
to its special favor and protection,
The laws secure that object and larg, =
ly promote the general welfare. They
should therefore be cherished as q
permanent feature Of our land system.
Good faith requires us give full effect
to existing grants. The time-hOnOr-
ed and benefeent policy Of setting
apart certain sections of public land
for educational purposes in the new
States, should be continued. When
ample provisions shall have been
made for these subjects, submit as a
question whether the residue OF our
national domain should not be who'll
ly disposed of under the provisions Of
the homestead and pre-emDtiOn laws .

has arrived when, by wise and pru-
dent legislation. Congress should look
10 a policy which would place our
currency at par with gold at no dis
tant day.
REVENUE REFORM"
Ths tax collected from the people
has been reduced more than eighty
million dollars per annum. By stead
iuess in our present course there is no
reason why, in a few short years, the
national tax Catherer may not disap-
pear from the door Of the citizen en-
tirely. With the revenue stamp dis
pensed by pOsrmasters IN every COM
muuity. a tax upon liquors Of all
sorts. and tobacco in all forms, and
bv wise adjustment Of the tariff,
which will put a duty only upon
those articles which we could dispense
with. known as lUxuries, and on those
which We use more of than we produce
revenue enough may be raised af-
ter a few years Of peace and cOnse-
ouent reduction of indebtedness to
fulfill all our obligations. ! further
reduction Of expenses, in addition to
a reduction of the interest account,
may be relied on to make this prae-
ticable.
Revenue REFORM - if it means this,
has my hearty support. II it implies
a collection of all the revenue for the
support OF the government, for the
payment of principal and interest Of
the public debt, pensions. &c, by di-
rectIy taxing the people, then I am
fED,v-anrra rofOrra - and
f1dently believe the people are with
me. If it means failure to provide
the necessary means to defray all eX-
penses of the government, and there
by reputation of the public debt and
pensions, then I am still more Op-
posed to such a kind of revenue re-
form. Revenue reform has not been
defined by any of its advocates, to my
knowledge, but seems to be accepted a.
something which is to supply every
mans wants without any cost or e.
fort on his part. A true revenue re-
form cannot he made in a day, but
must be the work of national legisla-
ton aud of time. As soon as the rev.
enue can be dispensed with, all duty
should be removed from coffee, tea,
and other articles of universal use, not
produced by ourselves. The necessi-
ties of the country compel US to col
lect revenue from our imports. An
army of assessors and collectors is not
a pleasant sight to the citizens, but
that, or a tariff for revenue, is neces-
sary. Such a tariff, so far as it acts
in encouragement to home products,
affords employment to labor at living
wages in contrast to the pauper labor
of the old world, and also IN the de-
velopement of home resources.

The massacre Of the French and

circumstances Of great barbarity was
supposed to have been premeditated,
and to indicate purpose among the
pOpnlace to exterminate foreigners in

authorities and the mob. The gov

Mexican government in exempting

EDUCATION AND AGRIcULTURE.

In conclusion, I would sum up the
policy of the administration to be
a thorough enforcement of every law;
a faithful collection Ofthe tax provided
for; economy in the disbursement Of
the same; prompt payment Of ev-
cry debt of the nation reduction Of
taxes as rapidly as the requirements
of the country will admit, reduction
of taxation and tariff to be so arrang-
ed as to afford the greatest relief TO
the greatest number; honest and fair
dealing with all other people, to the
end that war, with all its blighting
consequences, may be averted, but
without surrendering any right or OBJ
legation due to US a reform in the
treatment of Indians, and the whole
civil service of the country; and firm
ness in securing a pure, untrammeled
ballot, at which every man entitled
to cast vote may do so just once at
each election, without fear OF mOles-
tation or prescription on account Of
his political faith, nativity or color.

and for eleven months of 1870 the

is very gratifying, but the fact cannot
he denied that the instability of the
value of our currency is prejudicial to
our prosperity and tends to keep up
prices to the detriment Of trade. The
