valient to complcto tho liuslncss In their hands
by the tenth day of November next.
In my Circular, of tho Cth day of July last,
tlicro is no inuinanou mat claims, taken by
lejjtil subdivisions, must bo surveyed If, in
progressing with this unfinished business, I
shall haiipen to have notlfiexl some who do not
desire a survey, or may not be entitled to one,
because of haviwr sctued beforo tho ucnernl
surveys, such persons ought not to bo oltcndoil !
such notice can do them no harm. Tlicro tiro
some cases however, wlercln claimants have
supposed that n truct ten chains wide, and
forty chains long, would bu it legal subdi
vision, and Iiav'o so uJliBed) bnt- tlM-Com-
inlMioncr orthe UcD..nl K'liid Ollleo lias un
ipiallllnlly prohlblteil tnch being so rcganleil,
nnd declared that " th rnmllest h'gul subdivis
ion which Is ksucrplilln of being descrlbcil
by Its relative positlcn In n Township and
section, is io acres ni --'u chains square," or
tho fraction of such -10 acres, mode so by a
surveyed claim.
In looking over the sbtlracts or notification,
observing coses where tho claimant had sup
posed ho could taka a "40'' ten chains wide,
and 10 chains long and had notifliil as such
by a legal sulKlivision, I havo caused such
claimants to lw nolllleil In order that, If the
ditto of his settlement would permit, he might
have a survcr, and perhaps save II) or in.iro
acres of Innil by It but If In such cases ho
should still claim by le-al rubdlvlslon', or, for
nnr reason satisfactory to himself, ileclino tn
survey, I havo noMilitg further to do with his
enso than to hasten tlio adjoining surveys, so
that not only himself, butnls neighbors m ly
bo nb!o tn get their Patent Certificate).
There aro many clalnn, tlio surreys of which
havo been returned tn iho Iteslstrrnnd deceiv

In such cases, nf course no I'atcnts can bo ex

it Is certain that tha present Incumlieiits nro
not responsible j they have only been In nllleo
n short time, and I nm free to believe that In
duo tlmo they will prova themselves worthy of
trmt.
1'fw persons, I apprehend, know tlio trne
roudltlon of their claim nnttcrs, exrept that
n survey has been had n great whllu since,
mid think It time tn receive their Patents.
Inasmuch, therefore, ns ono or two imlilln

KMis'irrry, In eusis where hu e.imi it reiluee

bv no means liiteudnl that that very privilege
In Ids favor, Is to operate us n disadvantage to
other of the community, fin far from pueh

the cousirnciiiin which must govern your
net Ion In such ruses.
" Vim are, therefore, requested to Issua n

Instructions, notico wus issucn, mm very many
of tho settlers nvaili.il themselves of tho earli
est upnoi (unity to kubmlt their claims to sur
vcr, uud who, together with those whoso
claims had been surveyed beloro this thm1,
should have received their Pattnis. In his
Annual report nf 1 85(1, my predecessor siys :
" In order to rxmdito tliecomplitlon of claim-
maps or ToiMiships, to bj 1'ornanUil to thu
Commissioner oi me iiener.u winn uiuee, it
would bo well to empower this ollkv. to say

OfllN.nml tho lteglslcrs, is rclurded i Su-

nor can thu Registers arrive nl a Knowledge of
tho ureas of bneli tracts tu ucconuuod.itu pre
cinitiouUts ; mid from tho same cause, tho re
cently advertised sales ol tho public lauds can
not bo inado in this Territory."
Tl.o .Surveyor General ut Washington Ter
ritory, in his Annual report of 18.'id. calls thu
attention of tho Commissioner of tho General
I .ami Ollkv, to the necessity ol soma Jz-gUla-lion,
by which to compel hettlers to make a
request for Iho survey of their claims.
The great body of tlio early settlers have had
their claims surveyed ; uud even amongst thoso
remaining umurvcyed when I cniuo Into olllce,
(from seven to ten hundred, in tho State,) very
lew. Indeed havu hhowu any reluctance to at
tend to this matter ; but on tlioeoiilrary.have
bet n wulllug hiixIoiipIv for n Una! survey, In
thu completion of which, every claimant with
in Townships, whero there uro any claims re
maining' tu be surveyed, is deeply Interested.
Whllo tho causes beforu mentioned havo
unrated incidentally, there uro other causes
operating directly to prevent the issue of
Patents. Somu claims havo been surveyed,
and the pluls not prepared for thu Registers ;
of others, the Held notes havo remained for
years, without luviiu been corrected bv Der
uly Biirvciors, though they have long since
received their pay for doing tho work, lu
some cases, though the claims have been sur
veyed four or Dvo years, tho field-notes havo
remained iu the hands of tho deputy until tho
present time; uud 1 huvo Just learoed that a
deputy who surveyed some fifty claims lu
Polk county, over llvu years since, uud who
has fulled to correct his vvoil; and return his
notes, Is now nlioul tu Icavo for tho Atlantic
States on u visit. Patent certificates cauuut
Issue for those claims, (muili less Patents,!
until u icmedy Is applied, It Is worse than
useless to have claims surveyeJ, aud thcu per
mit tho deputy to trifle with tho bulsucss, fur
the completion of whiclu in most cases ho has
leceivid his pay in liuid, In the contracts tuwt cipawlvn !

Tho fact Is there is tim strong u teuiK'iiey mi
the part of writers generally to present ilistlu

to surrender was retried by Colonel Hllsa,
who. when ho had translated It to Old Zack,

It lias been common to suppose that Patrick
Henry, " the naturul orator," ns ho Is popu
larly called, was very slightly, If at all, Indebt
ed lor his wonderful eloquence to thoso sources
of mental culture which nro hold In highest es
teem, ns at onco tho models of taste and tho In
struments or learning. It seems, however,
that this opinion is unfounded, and that the
American iletnosthencs Is nu cxeepttou to the
great law which affirms that " tha gods give
nothing to men without labor." From nu In
teresting nnd instructive oration delivered by
Mr. Hugh Ulnlr Grlgsby, before tho students
of William nnd Mary College, 011 tho Fourth
of July last, we clto the following statement In
reference to tho literary stylo mm curly classi
cal proficiency of Patrick Henry 1
Onaliutaiicaof Iho application of philo
logy to tha history of Virginia, Is within my
own experience, niul may not 00 w llhout inter
est, to tho students or William and Mary.
From a critical examination of tha fragments
of tha speeches and writings of Patrick Henry
which havo como down to us, and by a careful
collation of them with thusu of prominent con
temporaries, I was convinced that our Patriot
Prophet had received regular and thorough
training in tho Latin classics, and that he hail
received that training In curly life. There wns
to bo seen In his stylo a ' niriovi fdicitin' and
a ' tttUiddjiinctura,' 11 purify uud 11 tact which
could not lie tho result of chance, or they
would have been equally apparent In tha works
of his rivals ntul it was evident, so finely
were llieso characteristics Interwoven In the
general texture of his style, that hu must have
studied tho ancient uitihors in curly lift1) as
such results rarely appear so conplciiouly iu
tha productions of those who become acquaint
ed with thu classics nt a more advanced ugc.
This was O10 argument of Internal evidence
an argument which was satisfactory to me, but
which, without mi infinitely mlnuto exposition
of details that nona but ti philologist could
comprehend, would not bu conclusive to others.
It would thus be regarded rather as nu opinion
than 11 demonstration ; nnd must, therefore,
sustain my conclusion, for tha benefit of the
others, from the facts uf Henry's early life.
" Ills father was u teacher und a native of
.Scotland, iin.1 he was uiliitiiteil lu that country
when l.itln was taught with substantial skill,
but in tnv vtnr.s before the sun nf Greek liter-
nturu had rU-ti in the Scottish horizon. Now,
thu Seolh tench Latin ut Ihu tcudcrcst ago.
1 11111 myself of Scottish ileicenl 011 thu mater
nal ride, nnd was taught by Scottish teachers,
and 1 nm hardly remember 11 lime when I
could not reud l.itln, or at least when I was
not familiar with tho grmumer. Hut the father
of I lenry was not only 11 teacher and 11 Scotch
linn, hut hu was 1111 ndmlmhlu l.itln tchnlar;
for wu uro told iu thu diary nf Samiiol Davis,
hlmk'lf 11 this scholar, tint thu father of Henry
was hnru familiar with his Horace than with
his lllble. Hence the conclusion was Irresist
ible that. If tho father of llenrv t night Ills
p.iplis the comics, hu would, llku the rest of
inn co.iuiryuieit, ic.ieu itieui vany ; mm, m nu
vvus prnvid to havo been thoroughly skilled In
th -nt thai If haitaiu1ilwi s'iIMa ii nf fctlirr
p.'opTu Latin, he would at tho a.imi lima teach
It's own. This was the argument from prohi-
billty, which 1 did not ii-evd to enhance my
own conviction, but which might be necessary
to gain thu assent of otlurs. Here. then, vvus
11 l.tet neortnlueil lu tho life nf Patrick Henry,
which was not only not known, hut which run
counter to the opinions und statements of all
nts coicmpornrics aim umgrupiicrs. nut was
my opinion true, after all It was strictly true
In liulti resiiccls, that our great orator had

learned them In early life ; for in the recently

Tho Field Family at Homo.
A corresp'jiuleut of tho New York Journal
of Commerce, written from Plttsflcld, Mass.,
August 23d, gives the subjoined account ol
the meeting ol iho members of tho Field family
ut Stockbndge, Mass. :
At Stoekbridge, week beforo last, (hero was
a family gathering worthy of being recorded.
It was thu family of dev. Dr. Field, who for
10 years vvus pastor of the villago church in
Stoekbridge. He is 78 years of uge, nnd Is
nctlvu inougli to nuillvu half the young men of
the present generation. A noble specimeu of
tlio clergy 01 inu otiieu times, uiuuiu mm pome,
going more than a miiu wnu us. over mil ami
dale, to point out a spot of historic Interest, or
show nu attractive iKiIut tn tho ever varying
aud magnificent Stockbridgo scenery. Hut
his charming companion iu tho Journey of life,
a dear old lady of 77 years, onu year younger
than her hu.iutM, is even in advance. 01 mm in
lur activity, intelligence, v!acity,niiti all those
nameless graces which give such sweetness to
tho ngtil us well as the young.
Well, week before last, Iho six sous and ono
daughter, with their wives und husbands, aud
children aud grand children, to thu numlc-r of
forty-six, met at thu ch inning old homestead,
nud'what u meeting ! Tlicro was David, a dis
tinguished lawyer, from New York j Matthew,
an iiiglneer of eminence, residing In ICasteru
Massachusetts; Jonathan, a State Senator,
Irom Stoekbridge; Stephen, a Judge of thu
Supremo Court of California 1 Cyrus, known
to tho world for his Indomitable telegraph en
ergy ; and Henry, the youngest son, a clergy
man und scholar, and tl.o accomplished editor
of tho New York Emugtlut. The daughter
Is the wire of tho dev. Mr. Drawer, of New
Haven, Couu. These were the children, uud
then thero vvero thirteen grand sons and thir
teen grand-daughters, with two great graud
sous, making tho fourth gcucratlou present at
tho gathering.
It won't not bo well to enter tho sacred pre
cincts of tho family circle. What transpired
there is not for tlio publio eyo or car. Hat
nh.it occurred outdoors, bevoud the fireside,
may bo recorded. Tho gathering took place
in Stockbridgo on Saturday, and on Suuday
all assembled In tho old parish church. Itev.
Mr. Drawer made the opening prayer, and tho
venerable Dr. Field preached from Acts 20
chap., 22d und 23d verses. In tho afternoon,
dev. Henry Field, or New York, de!icrcd the
sermon. Sabbath evening, ull tho family met
at tha house of thu son resident in Stoekbridge.
On Monday thev breakfasted In the grounds of
David Dudley field, ef Now York, who hus a
riunimur resilience lu btnchiiriuge, ami ut noon
they ull dined at the old homestead, with their
beloved parents. Tho nftcrnoou uud evening
were passed thero iu the purest enjoyment, und
none so happy us tho father und mother of this
delightful group of children. 'On Tuesday
morning tho charmed circle was broken, tha
members of It leaving the vllleje, never ujjulu
to be united ou earth.
Fl'.jiirKKiMi tiik Gini.s. Away up In tha
northern part of Vermont, rays tlio Anuitrr-
bod.tr, Is 11 primitive nut of a little village,
culled '-The Center." Here not long since, tho
rustle youth of Ilia vicinity congregated for u
"dance," nnd "daueo they did," said our infor
mant, "with an unction unknown to our city
belles una ucuux.
Ono Interesting young man, having "Imbib
ed" rather too freely, became "fatigued" In tho
course of thu evening, und wisely cuucluded tu
"retire" for a short rest.
A duor ujar near thu daueo hall revealed In
vitingly, u gliuqisd of u comfortable bed, of
which ho took possession, with a prospect of
an undoubted snooze.
It so huppcikd, how belt, that this was tho
ladles' withdrawing room; and no sooner had
hu closed his eyes, than u pair or bloomlug
damsels camo in from tho hall, and begau ad
justing their disordered ringlets, thu dim light
01 tnu iuiiow canuiu 1101 insciojiug 1110 tenant
of the bed. The girls hud tongues, (like most
of their sex,) which ran on this wl,u :
" What a nice daueo we're having. Havo
you heard unj holy say unj thing about me,
Juno!''
"La, ycs.Sally ! Jim Drown savs he never
saw you look so lisudsoiuo 111 you do to night.
Have you heard anybody say unythlng ubout
mo?"
" About you t Why, rnrtin. I heard Joa
Flint tell Sam Jones that yuu was the prettiest
dressed girl lu the room."
Whereupon tho dear things chuckled, "fixed
up" a littlo more, and niadu off tos-ards tha
ball room. They had hardly reached the door
when our hair-conscious friend raised himself
up an his elbow, and quite intelligibly, though
slowly, Inquired :
" Ha' you heard nuybody say anything
about me, girls t"

And Senator 0. 0. Clay, Jr., of Alabama,

defeat, to tho expedient with success, I pre

FoMTB.sr.ss. In politeness as In many
other things conuee'ed with tho formatlou of
character, peoplo iu general begin outside,
when they should begin iusldo ; Instead of be
ginning with the heart, and trusting that to
form tho manners, they begin with the mind,
and trust the heart to change tho Influences.
Tho golden rule contains tho very life and sola
of politeness. Children may be taught to mako
a graceful courtesy, or a gentlemanly bow j but
unless they havo likewise been taught to abhor
what is selfish, and always prefer another's
comfort and pleasure to their owu, their polite
ness will bo entirely artificial, and used only
when it is their interest to iiso it. On tho
other hand, a truly benovoleut, kind-hearted
person, will always bo distinguished for what
Is called uativo politeness, though entirely ig
uoruut of the conventional forms of society.
