The Illinois Central and the MO-
bile a. Ohio Railway
Land Grants.
The following joint resolution has been
:.....l....l =. L. Ill;...;- i n.-inIn tnro

The following joint resolution has been
introduced in the Illinois Legislature
WHEREAS, BY an act of Congress OF the
United States, approved September 20, 1880,
entitled IAN act granting the right OF way
and making grant OF land 10 the states OF
Illinois, Mississippi and Alabama, IN aid OF
the construction of a railroad from Chicago
to Mobile" certain lands were granted 10
the State of Illinois, for the purpose Of aid
ing in building "A railroad from n point at
or near the mouth OF the Ohio river, To the
city of Chicago, and 10 Dubuque, in the
State of Iowa, with condition inserted in
said act, that il said railroad shall not be
com pleted within ten years, the said state
of Illinois shall be bound TO pay TO the
United States the amount which may be re-
ceived upon the sale Of any part OF said
lands by said State: and the title To the res
idue mot sold) OF said lands shall reinvest
in the United States. And whereas, IL was
further enacted by section OF said act,
''that in order to aid in the construction or
said Central Railroad, from the mouth OF
the Ohio river TO the city of Mobile, all the
rights, privileges and liabilities hereinbe-
fore conferred on the State of Illinois, shall
be granted to the states OF Alabama and
Mississippi respectively, for the purpose OF
aiding in the construction of a railToad from
said city of Mobile To IA point near the
mouth of the Ohio river, and that public
lands OF the United States to same extent
in proportion to the length OF the road, on
the same terms, limitations and restrictions
in every respect shall be, and Is hereby
granted to said States of Alabama and Mis-
sissippi respectively. and
WHEREAS, Although that portion Of said
Chicago and Mobile Railroad, within the
State OF Illinois, was completed within si1
years after the passage of said act, aud has
been since and is now maintained and ope-
rated. and large part OF said road between
the Ohio river and Mobile has also been
completed. and is now operated. but por-
ton south OF the Ohio river, for twenty
miles or more, has never been constructed,
and the road therefore from Chicago 10
Mobile has never been completed, and the
purposes of said act OF Congress therefore
never answered, and its conditions never
complied with; therefore
Resolved by the Senate, the House con-
curing herein. that our Senators and Re
presentatives in Congress be requested 20
use their best eXertions TO have the aims
and purposes of said act of Congress car
ried out at the earliest possible period.
The subject matter Of the foregoing
resolution has also been introduced in the
United States Senate, by Mr.. Logan, Of
illinois,

Important Political Movement.

The Democratic members of the Illi-
nois Legislature, together with many of
the leading members of the party out
side that body, have held convention,
and unanimously declared in favor of
the Passive, or Missouri policy, which is
to cooperate with the Reformers in the
movement inaugurated by Gratz Brown,
Schurz and others. A despatch says:
General McClernand was the first speaker,
and he favored aiding the Liberal Republi-
cans, with the view of defeating Grant and
bringing about a change i'm our affairs.
This could not be accomplished by the Dem
ocrats alone and it would be the part of
wisdom to accept an honorable alliance with
the Liberal Republicans.

"AvOfd Expense"

A late Pilot in its comments on the Dill
of Col. Mcintosh providing for the
transferring of all lands held by the
Auditor for redemption or purchase tor
non-payment of taxes to the various
Circuit Clerks offices, where they can be
redeemed by the owner with little trou-
bic or expense, or purchased by the poor
people and at once become rich source
of revenue to the State, urges as an OBJ
lection that the printers fee allowed OF
TWENTY-FIVE cents for advertising each
subdivision will inure to the benefit OF
a few Democratic newspapers. The Pilot
will remember that under the existing
law. fifteen cents is allowed for advertls-
ing each subdivision of delinquent lands
for three weeks. Surely twenty-five
cents for three months, the space provided
for in this bill, is not equal to fifteen
cents for three weeks. We fear the OBJ
lection to the bill which is a wise, just
and humane measure, is its Democratic
paternity.

The powerful. conclusive speech of
Hon. j. K. Mcintosh, in behalf of the
claim of the sitting members of the
House of Representatives, from Lauder
dale, Messrs. Kelly and Smith, cannot
fail to be read with the interest which
the subject has naturally awakened. In
the partisan attempt to deprive Lauder
dale Of her legally chosen Representa-
tives, the so-called Republicans have
aimed a fatal stab at the vital principles
Of Republican governmental right of
the people to be represented by agents of
their own selection.

Conviction of Ex-U. -. Marshal
HeVfOm.

The trial of E. A. Peyton, late U. s.
Marshal, in the Federal Court, for en-
bezzlement, has resulted in his conviction.
He was arraigned on four indictments
convicted in one-and plead guilty IN
the others. 1t is rumored that being
shining light of Radicalism, he has
been sentenced to Imprisonment SIX
months. This is the lghtest punishment
affixed to the crime-and as he was con-
victed in four separate cases, the punish
ment under the law could not have been
for less than twenty-four months. The
Judge has executed the law by ordering
his confinement in jail for six months for
each offense-the term of each contine-
ment to begin on the same day A
righteous Daniel.

The Political prosecutions.

The political prosecutions conducted
under pretence of Furnishing violations of
the Enforcement Act, commenced in the
Federal Court on Wednesday-Counsel

man, T. j. Wharton, Judge Geo. L.
Potter and Sentor Steele. and United
States District Attorney E. P. Jacob

A jury was empanneled after consid-
erable delay, and the first case called was
that of Mr.. l.. d. Belk, of Meridian. =
For full report of the. proceedings,
which will be. found elsewhere, we are

rary, Col. A. G.. Horn, of the Meridian

The Harrison County shcriGaIty.

The following from the Handsboro
Democrat will show how the arbitrary
conduct of Gov. Powers in overruling
the choice Of the people in the Sheriff is
rebuked by all classes:
We visited the courthouse yesterday and
found the southwest room still occupied by
l.. +. Pradat playing sheriff. but going it
alone. His deputies having become dis
gusted with his conduct in holding on to an
office which the veriest fool in the world
knows he has no legal nor just right to,
have all left him solitary and alone.
We presume it will not be necessary for
Powers to send his bayonets down here to
protect his special pet. but we must confess
that the air in and around the southwest
room has ''Wheatonish" odor.

In order to furnish our correspondent
an answer in the most authentic form,
we have submitted his inquiries to the
Auditor of Public Accounts, and re-
ceived the following answer:
The law makes the Sheriff and his Bond
responsible to A, in the case cited. and he
should proceed against them upon his re-
CENTS. In the sale of lands the State charges
only such taxes as have been allowed the
Sheriffs. Yours; very truly,
Feb. 10, 1872. Auditor
We will add that the law operates as
a hardship on the person whose land has
been improperly seized by the Sheriff.
The State ought to hold itself responsible
TO him for all damages resulting from
the dishonesty, or incompetency' OF us
officials, and should also provide severe
penalties for maIfeasance or neglect OF
duty by the last named.

The Summit Times closes a long dis
QUESTION on the subject of the alleged
printing coalition" with the following
postscript:
Having no desire to provoke controver-
sy with THE CLARION on this subject, and,
at first thoroughly disbelieving the charge,
and entertaining the kindest feelings tor
the proprietors of THE CLARION. our read
ers will not miscoBstrue our motives in
referring to it and we do now leave it with
no ex pectation of recurring to it again.
And now as our cotemporary has had
his say" may we not be permitted to
indulge the hope that it will judge The
CLARION by its course and not by vague
rumor or unfounded suspicion. 1t 1t
should turn out though we should fail In
all other good endeavors, that we shall
have been somewhat instrumental in re-
forming the expenditures in the printing
service-we trust a sense of justice as
well as the "kind feelings" expressed by
the Times will prompt it to be as ready
to give us credit as it has been hasty to
find fault.
