Very respectfully,

Il. Q. GEARY, Receiver.
A copy Of the above was received few days
since by each of our attorneys We most re-

Elemental order to tho above directing the re-
celyers at local land Offices to demand that all
payments for land and fees be hereafter made
in gold coin of the denomination of ono dol
lar, of the issue of some designated year. Such
an order would prove as cffectual as anything
we can think Of in putting stopto land proofs.
