The Public Domain.

From the confused report Of the
Land Commissioner it will be seen
that up to June 80, 1872, Congress
had granted to railway companies no
less than 2l5,97l,005 acres Of the
public domain. and the amount dis.
posed Of in other ways foots up
592,016,367 acres, making . total Of
Sol, es7 ,s79 acres.
The reckless land grants made by
Congress hsve been made apparently
without reference TO the fact that
there was limit to the area OF pub.
lilo land, and particularly Of that
which was desirable and tillable. It
has been evident for years that the
day for cheap lands was we'll nigh
gone, and that the lands were rap.
idly passing into the hands Of corpo.
rations, from whom it IL impossible
to purchase except At . material ad.
vance upon the government price. I,
was necessary to make many and
large grants to railway corporations
to secure the building Of railroads
through such portions OF the country
q were not settled sufficiently to
make the roads profitable for mum
Der Of years.
Railroads have done more than an,
other one thing toward the early
settlement and development of the
west. and yet it is . matter Of regre,
shat Congress has been 90 lavish in
making land grants TO corporations
whose enterprises were not Of nat.
ionai importance. The "Psc,ficr
Railroads were of great Importance,
and capitslists required great induce
ments to embark in such An enter
prise, ~ so large portion Of the roads
would run through an unsettled
country. and over the mountains that
form the divide of the Pacific and
tie Missouri slopes.

Various theories have lately been
advanced to account Tor the Ill.
success that has thus far attended
every attempt to form the ''new par.
~" 90 much desired by certain out.
atrsibow politicians. The explana.
ton seems simple enough, and is cor.
reetly stated BY the Cincinnati En-.
4s'rer. The opposition comes no,
from the pol,t,clans, but from the
people. The former are ever read '
tor . new shuttle, but the latter Ar :
not. And this holds especially true
IN relation to the great bulk OF the
Republican organization. Having
always conscientionsly adhered to
their principles they can see no rea
son to change them. It is different
with the Democracy, whose late
Liberal experiences have shown
that they have no principles worth
mentioning to stand BY, and can
therefore lose nothing by . change.
