A CHANcE FOR SETTLERS.
A Large Tract of Land Opened !
Humboldt Oouuty

A Large Tract of Land opened In
Humboldt County.
SAN Francisco, Aug. 5.-More than a
million and half acres OF timber and
grazing lands in Humboldt county have
been thrown open to entry and sale by
decision OF the commissioner of the
United States land Office. The lands
are in the northern part of Humboldt
county. In 1880 survey of sixty-nine
townships in Humboldt county was
made by Surveyors Holcomb and Buck
ley, and persons working under them.
The lands covered by the survey had not
been previously mapped, and the coun-
try was practically without inhabitants,
although known to be we'll watered
and, in parts, heavily covered
with the finest redwood and other
timber. On account of fraud the gov
ernment, in 1887, withdrew from entry
all of the lands surveyed by Holcomb
and his party. Since 1887 the govern
ment land Office has been investigating
the surveys made in Humboldt county,
and today the commissioner directed
Surveyor-General Pratt to announce
that the order of suspension had been
rescinded, and that the lands covered by
it were now restored to entry and sale.
Surveyor-G General Pratt is familiar with
the sections now opened, and considers
them desirable. Water abounds all
through the county. Most of the land
is suitable for grazing, but there are
many thousands of acres thickly COW
cred by timber. The land is all within
the Humboldt land district, and is
reached easily from the California North
ern railway.

Conferences between the Irish leaders
and Gladstone have resulted in such q
degreeof mutual confidence as promises
greatly to expedite the advent of home
rule in Ireland. The acceptance by
John Morley Of the chief secretaryship
for Ireland, was a point upon which the
chiefs of the McCarthyite faction laid
considerable stress. John Dillon, today,
expressed the satisfaction OF the Irish
party at Morley's appointment. He
would say nothing about Gladstone's
home rule billy except that it was
likely to be- one Parnell would
have accepted, adding they would
take nothing less; that Ireland's repre-
sentation must be as full as now. 1t is
expected that the bill will be introduced
as soon as the house re-assenbles in
Januaryor or early in February.

journed TO-DAY 346 members had been

The serious position of the affairs in
Afghanistan has decided the Indian
government to send General Sir Freder-
ick Roberts, at the head OF large de-
tachment, called an escort, but really a
small army, to meet the ameer. The
mission will be accompanied by polit-
ical agent, and the main object is to ar
range plans to strengthen the ameer
against internal feuds and Russian adj
vances. The ameer wants money and
new arms. .
Private Simla advices indicate that
grave military emergencies are pending.
Englishmen are so busy instructing
America how mobs of workingmen
should be dealt with, that they over
look affairs here. Thousands Of idlers
