a BILL Tuap Should PASS.

The bill introduced in tho House
the othor day by Representative
O It's, fron the Ju li3iary C,nnitt,e,
to prohibit aliens from acquiring title
to land in the United States, is aimed
at an evil which should long ago have
been met by Congress and the negis-
~latures OF the several States. How
great estates have bscn bought aud
stolen in tile territories Gy foreign
persons and corporations is an old
story. Mr.. Oates report states that
European noblemen, principally
English, own about 2l,oo0,o1o acres
in this country, to say nothing OF TIE
holdings Of untitled aliens Bonds
covering 1O0,o00,oao acres Of railroad
lands aru owned abroad. It is evident
that we are permitting to DO built up
in tho republic n system of alb
sentee landlordism identical with
that under which Ieellnl has
suffered, aud on n scale SC gigantic
that tho modern world has seen moth
ing approaching it. The bill of last
session similar to the Oates measure,
which wns allowed finally to sleep
away its life in committee, made the
country familiar with some of tho in
stances cited by Mr.. Oates, notably
that OF one Scully, who, although he
lives in England and is a British sub
ject, has an estate of 10000 acres in
Illinois, the tenants on which pay him
a yearly rent OF S2),0oo, and that OF
the Schuleys. also British subjects,
whose 1000 acres within tho limits Of
Pitts5urs and Allegheny yield them
annually about 100000.
There can be only one opinion abont
tho necessity Of making impossible
the extension of this system. None
bat tho citizens Ola couotry should
be permitted to own it's land, for the
ownership OF the soil makes those
who havo it tho masters OF those who
must use it's. l.. Post.

been made to tho Board oT Pdrdons
without avail, and after the reading
OF kilograms Indicating the utter

in behalf of the prisoners, tho general
sentiment OF those who took part in
