An interesting letter about the ostrich farm
near San Diego California, will be found on
another page of THE TRIBUNE this morning,
written by Mr. William G. LIE Due. ex-Com-
missioner of Agriculture. The birds brought
from South Africa last fall by Messrs. Proth-
eroe and Sketchley are in excellent condition
and seem to understand what is expected of
them. The persons interested financially IN
the experiment, therefore, are confident OF
success. The facts which Mr.. LIE Due recites
certainly seem to Justify their high hopes. 1t
is impossible, however, not to recall the old
adage about counting chickens before they are
hatched. The patent incubator may not work
as 1t ought, and unexpected difficulties may
be encountered in rearing the young chickens
The day is rapidly approaching when we are
again TO have kind of fractional currency in
this country much like the departed "shln-
plastersn of war times. 1t will be in the shape
of the postal notes which have been printing
in this city during the summer, and are now
ready to distribute to the money-order post
Offices throughout the country. They cannot
be used, however, before September 3. The
notes promise to be about as great q conven-
fence as the Post Office Depar ment has ever
given us-so great, indeed, that the use OF
them may easily degenerate into abuse. rs"
pecially in large towns and cities where there is
a money-order Office, there may he disposition
to use the notes to considerable extent as
"change," instead of silver coin.
If the Commissioners sent to Indian Terri
tory by Secretary Teller to settle the difficult
ties between the hostile parties in the Creek

FORTH" they have performed great task, and
have earned the warm thanks of every friend
of Indian civilization. They have ended o
bitter feud which has existed ever since the
outbreak of the Rebellion, and the progress
of which has been frequently marked by
bloodsoed. The quarrel had demoralized both
parties, and stood like rock in the pathway
of civilization. 1t is sincerely to be hoped
that, as General Fisk says, the Creek difficult
ties have been finally adjusted, "tO the entlrt
satisfaction of all parties"
The Republicans of Iowa still insist tina

the immense quantity of advice that has beer
thrust upon them lately by uniformed well
wishers at a distance, they have opened thu

JOHN SwINToN's New York paper
says of "Nasby," of the Toledo Blade,
who is in for pulverizing the liquor
power:
II have not seen Nasby in New York
for some months. There is an odd fel-
low for you. He can work harder and
steadier both at demijohn and type
writer, than any other Literary feller"
in the country. He never travels with
out both the articles mentioned as his
side companions. His method is to hire
q whole section in Pullman, have the
curtains drawn and the table set up, and
proceed to business with the Typewriter
on top of the table and the jug under
meath. He takes drink to page, and
his eagerness for the jug makes him
rush off the page at a very lively gait
Nasby's face looks like the moon before
a storm, and his garments look like a
secondhand store after cyclone. He
thinks whisky heavens best gift to
man. For some years past he has been
travelling abroad getting material for a
history of the world. 1t will be sold by
the cord. He has made a great deal of
money, and through prudently buying
his liquor at wholesale and selling it to
himself at retail, he has saved up a for
tune by saving the balance. He is
short, fat and fifty, and he smokes five
cent cigars when he can get seven of
them for quarter"

PUBLIC LANDS.
Three Important Bills introduced by
senator Ingalls,.


WAsHINGToN, December Three bills
relating to public lands, introduced by
Senator ingalls,, are designed to materially
simplify the operations OF the General
Land Office, and change in several i'm
pOFtant particulars its methods of acquir-
ing titles to public lands.
The first provides for the repeal OF the
pre-emption law, but authorizes second
homestead entry by persons who have
made one homestead entry and have for
any reason failed to perfect their title, and
who, at the same time, never made fail
ure under the pre-emption act.
The second repeals the timber culture
law, but permits title to be perfected in
accordance with the provisions OF that
law upon all claims entered before the
passage OF the repeating act.
The third and last of the series proposes
TO amend the homestead act by prohibiting
Communication hereunder till two years
have elapsed from the date of settlement
one year ID which must be Of record III
the Land Office. 1t also repeals the pro
vision of the law under which local land
officers ;Ire authorized to receive relin-
quishments, and Immediately throw the
claims relinquished open to entry. In eff
feet, it requires all ACCOMPLISHMENTS to be
forwarded to the Commissioner-Ciener
oil the Land Office and be approved by
him before the land in question is
thrown open to entry. The effect
of this series of measures, il they
become laws, will be to limit
the amount OF public land a single indi-
vidual can secure to one claim Of 160 acres
Land may be secured after two years OF
actual residence thereon, by paying $2J
per acre, or after five years residence for
nothing. The provision in respect to re-
linquishments is designed to put a stop to
the practice of filing entries upon public
lands and holding them for the purpose Of
selling the REIMBURSEMENT TO incoming
settlers. Under existing laws, citizen
may obtain three claims, one each under
the homestead, pre-emption and timber
culture laws. lie secures the timber-cul
ture claim without residence, and may
purchase the pre-emption and homestead
claims after six months actual residence.

MINNEAPOLIS, December "a Tribune
special says that Mr.. Carlstaii, oi Duluth,
received a letter yesterday from friend
who was 4 passenger on the Inflated Ma
nistee, of which the following is a svnop-
siss "When the boat went ont the iet-
ter goes on to state, "tnoy encountered
very heavy gales rom the southwest, AMI
when about twenty miles ott the boat was
put about, but coItd not make it, and
broke in two. The lifeboats were taken
out, bet before they could be launched
all but one were swept away, an,i oily
nine persons who were iH t.iS boat we're
allowed to get ia. They had terrible
time. After the steamer went down there
wa. nothing but wide expanse Of water
before them. They rolled around on ihe
turbulent waters cold, wet and hungry,
three days, and one by one dropped or,
death having come to their relief. scni6
OF them froze TO death, while some
died from exhaustion and exposure
to the wind. Capt. Mackcy never
ieit the boat, but wrapped himself up in a
hoaSy overcJat and remarked, Il will
never leave the boat until the last soul Is
Gil. l am captain of this boat, snd il she
is a coffin for anybedv she will be my
coffin After the men had left the boat
the Masistee made one plunge under
the waves, and that was the last ol
her. They report that when they left the
boat there were the crew and ten OF
eleven passengers on board, and out oI
those who started out in the boat only
three were saved and reached Hough,
ton. The wreck occurred off Eagle
Harbor, and there was no possible
chance OF saving her under the circum.
stances. They say that at last, when
everybody knew there was no hope OF
saving the boat, Capt. Mackey gave his
orders just as coolly and collected as ii on
land"

In respect to the proposed new Ctn.mittee

Cdnimerce, now hayihr jurisdiction OF
these subjects, confederation of all ques-
tons relating to commerce, shipping, the
iasrchant marine, life-saving service and
lighthouses. The necessity of this divis-
ion OF labor is, in the opinion of the com
mlttee, due to the apparent demand for
extended commerce. The American skip-
ping interests have APPEALED to Congress
forsears for relief, and American commerce
constantly demanded the aid of legislation
IN vain. Investigations have been insti-
tuted and measures of relief suggested
but the Committees of the Commerce for
the two houses of Congress have been
occupied from the opening of the session
to its close with equally important meas
uTes touching the iniprovanant Of rivers
and harbors, and have been obliged to
allow considerations of such measures to
rest till too late for action. This is es-
pecialiy true OF the committee DR. the part OF
the House. For thsir consideration the bill
known - :he river and harbor bill com
neiees early in the session and continues
with hardly an interruption to the time it
IS reported. If then, they consider and
report measures touching commerce, and
the House sends them TO the Senate

has received the river and harbor Bill. and
its attention in turn is engrossed by that
The committee believe division OF the
labor Of this important committee Of the

attained he a more careful and thorough
consideration and scrutiny of the river
