No Land BOunlY.

AS many inquiries have been made
about the Soldiers Bounty Land bill,
recently pending in Congress, we
publish the following from the Eren-
ing Star (Washington), which states
the facts correctly:
No law was enacted during the last
session Of Congress giving land boun-
ties to soldiers who served in the
Union armies during the rebellion;
the general impression to that effect
resulting from the passage, in the
House of Representatives, of a bill
which failed in the Senate. The only
provision of the Homestead act which
does not equally apply to citizens and
soldiers was passed in July last, and
contained a section the effect of which
is to give to soldiers and sailors who
served during the rebellion the right
to enter 100 acres of land, not mineral,
of the alternate reserved sections of
public lands along the lines Of any
one of the railroads or other public
works of the United States where
ever public lands have been or may
be granted by act Of Congress, held
at $3.50 an acre; instead of so acres,
the maximum amount of this land
which others are allowed to enter.

The Register of 20 inst, in its edit
Orial about the State Convention,
refers to the several candidates most
prominently in the field. AS to the
Gubernatorial succession it says:
At the present time three gentle
men appear prominently in advance
of the rest, and are, we suppose, to
he taken as candidates, and i'm the
field. These are Hon. John A.
Elliott, Of Des Moines; Hon. Henry
O'Connor, of Muscatine; and Col. G..
e. Carpenter, Of Fort Dodge.
Latterly two other gentlemen
seem to be coming forward in con-
spicuous rivalry with the three we
have mentioned. We refer to Hon.
John Scott, Of Nevada, and G. w.
SlagIe, Esq, Of Fairfield, worthy
competitors of the trio Of able and
popular men that lead the canvass.
For Lieut.. Governor there arc
many names talked OF. "Those
most frequently mentioned are, Sem
ator Murray. Of Madison, Senator
Bennett Of Washington, Gen. Leake
Of Scott, Senator Bulls Of Winnie
shiek. g. M. Clark Of Keokuk, and
Col. Milo Smith OF Clinton"

THE Spring seems to have fairly
opened out In this precinct. Weather
warm and beautiful-just the mate OF
what 1t was ten years ago these days.
Roads hard and somewhat dusty.
Some bushes beginning to leave.
Fruit trees getting ready to bud, 20
days earlier than some folks think
best. Wheat nearly all sowed, as far
as we can learn; some oats In already;
and some Farmers blowing for corn.
Let US hope for freedom from nipping
frosts, and for bounteous year to
help US over these plaguy tight

Horses stolen.

A dispatch was received by Sheriff
Hawk on Friday morning, announc-
ing that Markley-one Of the prison
ers who escaped from our county Jail
the other night, and who stood COM
mitted on acharge of stealing horses,
had appeared in Des Moines on Thurs
day night, and stole two Of the best
horses belonging to McHenry & Bow
en-. There is a little private history
connected with this affair that takes
off a portion of the curse of this last
transaction of old Markley. When
he was arrested few weeks ago, and
tried at Prairie City for stealing har.
ness, he sent for McHenry of Des
Moines to come to his assistance.
McHenry told him he would help him
through for fifty dollars. He received
his fee, picked a flaw in the informa-
tion-which was really lame-and
had it set aside, and Markley was re-
leased. But the case was not to end
here. Mr.. M. Howard, of this city,
who so ably conducted the subsequent
prosecution, knowing that the infor-
nation could not be made to stick,
was ready with another, and new
warrant was issued and Markley re-
arrested. McHenry coolly buttoned
up his coat, put on his hat and was
about to leave the court room, when
the following coll0quy, substantially,
took place:
''See here, Mack, ID you, you
amt going to leave a teller in this
way, are your"
Certainly, 1 have done all I agreed
to, i got you clear"
"But am re-arrested on the same
charge, and you ought to stand by
me to the end of this thing"
"For fifty dollars more l will"
Making virtue of necessity, Mark
ley paid him an additional fifty,
swearing however, that he would be
even with him sometime. Itappears
he has taken the earliest opportunity
to pay old Mack for his sharp practice.

[NoTE.-In justice it should be
stated that a later number of the Re
publican says that Mr.. McHenry de-
MES the above almost entirely.
