In a recent report made TO tho House OF
Representatives by the Committee on Public
4 Lands, it is stated that there arozyct ZOO,
600, 900 acres of public lands in tho country
that are sinsurvcyed. Out of the vast area of
the public lands Of the United States, how
ever, after deducting swamp lands, deserts,
mountains, and railway and other grants, it is
estimated that the whole amount of arabic
lands available for settlement cannot now e:
coed $50 to 400 millions of acres. Last year
nearly four millions of acres were taken up
by homestead settlers, and the estimate of the
Committee is that before q century clapses,
all the arabic lands Of the country will be alb
sorbed. When we consider what was the area
of that part of the United States, inhabited
by whites a century ago, this prediction not
only seems probable, but there is also a like
ihood of the entire arabic surface of the
country being absorbed by settlers long before

The New York Erening Post gets off the
following clever and accurate description OF
the condition of the poor old Democracy
The poor World has a hard time of it il,
trying to make the cadavcr it calls the Demo-
cratic party stand upon its legs. 1t props
the thing up every day or two, labels it all
over with notices and devices of it's own in
vention, paints tie Aollo,o old cheeks and sets
candies IN the eye-ho,es, and then shouts
aloud: There, see; just as good as ever it
was.' AS soon as its back is turned, how
ever, the wretched lay-figure falls to the
earth. We admire the persstency of the
World, and sincerely sympathze iu its disap-
pointments. = ~

LONDON, Feb. nth, 1874.

LONDON, Feb. nth, 1874
Perhaps no event in the political world
has created so intense n sensation as the
late trial and sentence of Marshal Bazainc.
Not, indeed, has its discussion in the least
abatcd, since the entire asscmbage of cir
cumstanccs recalls wildly to mind the day
when DumOuriey crossed over to the Aus
TRANS, and certain circles of society will
persist in drawing a comparison between
the unfortunate hero and Marshal Ney,
Notwithstanding that Lamartine truly OBJ
serves Of 1.-THE hrayest Of the braye," that
his fault was one of those (Which are con-
demned but pardoned, ' and though "tech-
nically he was great culprt, his was
glorious life
Bazllnes carccris Il complete catastrophe,
the last scene Of all drawing a curtain Of
sad, dark wool over the entire drama.
Ill-dlrccted, ambition was the snag upon
which was wrecked the reputation of n
man who was in many respects brave
soldier, and whose redeeming trait was a
~ NAih '') any iNi liN tullut.
The Emperor was .Bazaines god but
when the throne tottered and the idol
recled, Baziine was ready to turn icono-
clast and place his hearts deity in the
penetralla Of royalty.
Marshal Bazaine rose from the ranks,
was educated at the Ecole Polytechnigue,
and did his first active military work in
Africa.
He served for two campaigns with the
foreign legation in Spain against the Car
lists, which was followed by another inter-
val of African service, in which he won
sufficient dictinction to be appointed to the
command of brigade at the outbreak of
the Crimean war.
Such was his conduct during this cele-
brated contention that he received frequent
commentator of Marshals Canrobert and
Pcllssier. 1t was, however, in the Mexican
war that Bazane won his glazing laurels,
which served to disfigure, rather than adorn
his brow. 1t was upon the recall of Gen.
Forey that Bazaine, who had previously
commanded division of infantry in the
campaign, was advanced to the vacant post,
and the world may now testify how I'M
scrupulously he carried out the policy
which he believed to be that of his Impe-
rial master His savage system of warfare
startled all Europe, and aroused but doubt
full applause among the Imperialists of
Franco. Dazaine ia accredited with the
