TO The Editor of the HERALD:
There seems to be very general impress
sion that the land scrip issued to confederate
soldiers can only te located by locating like
quantity tor the state adjacent thereto; that
ia, that one must find body of vacant land
embracing 1850 acres before locstioa can BIZ
made, settirg aside to the state the slternt To
1880 acres, rs is required by railroads in set
ting aside alternate section of their surveys.
The statute reads ~ follows 'Sec. 3. The
certificate granted uuder the provisions of
this &c. shall be located as follows: The lu-
Gator shsll oils, locate u like amount OF land
for the benefit of permanent school
fund, before either shall be patented, and
such locstions shall be made on any of the
public dom sin of Texas not reserved by law
from location"
Il will DO seen from this that the survey
for the state Can be made ON one tract of va
cant land, and the con ederate scrip on any
other within the state, whether they be adjs-
cent OF u bur dred miles apart.
The price IF these certificates has been
materially Effected by this erroneous i'm
preston ss to location, and ineteah Of their
being Of small value, they are the best GER
tficates in which the locator or land speculaa
tor can invest.
OF course, and by the very requirements
necessary to procure them, they
sre owned by poor men or
widows, and cannot by them bs located, but
must be placed in the hands of of others tor
location, or sold. Tne great bulk of them
will b., sold, and the original owners will
realize less from them than any one else;
hence deem it but a simple duty to call
attention to this matter that these worthy
ones may get the most out of what TO them,
At best, will be but little more than per.
mauept record of thez noble deeds and
sacr fees in cause lucy se,ia"ed to be- just
and poured out then blood 80 prove to be
right. -ITlzEN.

A Ringing Letter.

We have just received a stirring
letter from the patriotic Secretary of
the Georgia State Grange, which
will appear in our next issue. That
letter should be read before every
Grange in the land. Like a bugle
note on the eve of battle, it will in
spire true Patrons everywhere with
fresh enthusiasm and a more earnest
determination, and touch and fire
the hearts of those that haye been
cold and Indifferent. Our enemies
may sneer and ridicule, and predict
the early downfall of the Grange,
but the intelligent, fearless Patrons
know and can proudly boast that
"Our cause is no sappling chance-sown
by the fountain%
Blooming in spring, ia, autumn to fade;
When the whirlwind shall strip every leaf
from the mountain,
The more shall the turner's exult in its
shade. I
Moored in the rifted rock,
Proof TO the tempest shock,
Firmer It's rooted the ruder it blows. -
