Wilbur is soon to leave his pastorate here, io'Satera to take charge of tbe Yakima Ap ency, East of tbe Cascades in Washington 5 Territory, which position be Mcceatfally filled, but declined to reaecept under- the late Superintendent of that Territory. Mr. Dickson, who is appointed to the Cma till Agency, was with Mr. Wilbur at the Yakima, end Is Supposed to have been prbMted en lis recommendation General Joel, Palmer is nominated for Grand Round Agency (the dispatch jays 'Jehn.' Palmer, hnt we think the General is meant), and Mr. L. S. Dyar of Salem is appointed to SiletE. These gentlemen are'aU MethodUu we under stand, while Cap tobn Smith, Agent at Warm Springs, where he was rein eta ted several months ago, is a repre estative of the Fresbyterians. So we eem to see the promised policy intro need,'an4 as' the Agents now in posit ion at the Grand Round and Siletx are good and energetic men, we mast eon clade that their removal is dae to the adoption of this policy and not to any jperteaal or unfriendly considerations As to tbe success of this policy, we can only judge when it has been faith fully tried. There is no fault to be found with tbe gentlemen chosen by tbe President, and whose names have een sent to tbe Senate for confirma tion, bat it is still a question if the Senate will resign its claims to a share if official patronage, and endorse the policy of the President by confirming his appointments. , ; Advance In Wheat. . The most important fact in connec tiou. with 'commercial affairs to note this week,, is the advance in wheat, which has been steaidly going up for several weeks, having lately touched $2 15 per cwt for a prime article in San Francisco. This causes an ad jvauce taj 90 cents per bushel hers at . Salem. This advance does "hot seem to be at all the result of speculation, bail's based On the actual demand and supply existing in those . countries which are tbe most important custom rs for the grain market.'"'' .

We do not hear much talk in town about this dread disease, though a few new cases bave occurred within tbe last week. So far as we learn these are all doing well, and tbe greatest care is being exercised to pre vent tbe spread of the disease. All tbe old cases are well, and at tbe present time there may be half a-dozen cases in and about the city This is an im provement on the time when tbere were twice or thrice that many, but our citiaess are determined to eradi cate tbe disease entirely, and-we be lieve it can be and will be speedily done. A Dog Story. A correspondent writing from Polk county the other day gives ns tbe fol lowing rather hyfalutin account of a dog wbo was caught devouring mutton: .We of Polk sounty are just now di vided in opinion, not politically, as one would naturally conclude npon seeing the word " divided," but upon tbe merits and demerits of a case in volving tbe terrestrial existence of an extraordinary canine. It seems that the above mutton canine was possessed of an extraordinary appetite for " lamb rear;" said desire attaining tbe entire master over moral sense and neighbor ly intercourse, in fact, so depraved bad become this " purp" tnat ne seems to have sallied forth at the dead hours of nigbt, and, with blood in bis eye and murder in bis beart, penetrated into a neighboring sheep fold and tbere, forgetting all tbe great moral teachings which bad been instilled into bis youtg and virtuous mina, proceea ed to slaughter, mangle, tear, worry, des'roy and decapitate numerous frisky and otherwise lovely rauttoDS, to tbe great damage and greater disgust of tbe neighbors generally, and tbe owner of tbe sheep in particular. Said own er becoming wrought up with exceed ing wrath upon bearing said canine in his sheep fold, marched bravely out, fully intent upon sending a leaden mes sage through the disturbers most vital part, but upon seeing tne gautani ca nine with bis splendid caudle append age floating in the breeze, bi3 heart smote btm, and laying aside bis double fuse, he called to " Touzer" in bis most mellifluous tones, bidding him ap proach him. - Tourer thinking tbat be had accomplished a great feat in slaughtering so many four-footed ani- mals in oue night, straightway ad I vanced to thefeet of the enraged neigh bor, nnd there laying prone upon bis I f 7'" . . 7 . i d wearied lisrht atnwart nis metan I -,va1I nhvaioB-omv. did suffer tbe en raged neighbor to place a cord around his neck and lead bim gently into a neighboring woodshed, and now comes the darkest part of this dark transac tion.

KAITKRH JSKWB. Washincton. Dec. 13. In the House. Julian presented a petition from set- tiers on public lands in Colusa county, California, protesting against their lands being taken from them by cap italists, as swamp and overflowed lands. (' Tbe House resumed consideration of the bill to consolidate postal laws, tbe pending question being an amendment offered by Hill, repealing from the 1st of July, 1870, all laws allowing frank ing privilege, and amendments thereto, offered by Walker, allowing newspa pers, periodicals; ic, reciprocally, to be interchanged between publishers, and copies of weekly, monthly and semirweekly oewspipers to be sent free to actual subscribers, within tbe county where tbey are published. Adopted. Hill's amendment, as amended, was then adopted. A pro vision was inserted authorizing tbe Postmaster General to take temporary Contracts for postal service over new routes which are to cease unless con firmed at a subsequent session of Con gress. An amendment providing that tbe frankiag privilege should not be taken from any person to whom it has been heretofore granted by special act of Congress, was adopu-d. -Various amendments as to details were dis posed of, and the bill passed. t Johnson asked leave -to offer a reso lution declaring that tbe best interests of tbe United States demand the imme diate abrogation of tbe treaty with China, except that portion relating to commercial intercourse between the two countries. Objection was made. - A resolution was adopted authoriz ing the Ways and Means Committee to enquire into the expediency of levying a tax of IS cents per pound on tobacco of every description. WeBtern members begin to talk of an Apportionment bill, to give increased representation to tbe Slates, based on the returns of tbe census last summer. New members to be chosen at special elections in time to take tbeir seats next December, in- the 42d Congress. A hill to this effect will soon be intro duced, and if do committee reports it, it will be sprung upon tbe House some Monday in tbe morning hour. Cincinnati, Dec. 13. It is under stand at Dayton, that tbe appointment ot Schenck as Minister to England will not interfere with the contest for Campbell's seat, from tbe third dis trict. Friends of the former are de termined to prosecute tbe matter to a final issue. Washington, Dec. 12.

Tbe Duke of ' Mecklenburg reports a severe battle with the Army of tbe Loire at Deau gency, where tbe French were rein forced. Fifteen thousand prisoners nd six guns were taken. Tbe remain der of tbe French army is on tbe road to Bourgea. Another account says that after tbe (igbt of tbe 7th the I!h varians threatened Beaugency and tbe foreetof Marcbouir. The French were reinforced, but the Prussians look Bravant, Buemoit, Messares and Beau- ' ;ency. On tbe 9th Boaveltand Bonuy ' were captured. Versailles, Dec. 10. Tbe Freoch are assuming the defensive in large force rhey ware repulsed at Maotefoll after one day's artillery fight. Tbe Prus sian loss is slight. A few French pris oners only were taken.

Paris suffer no priva'ions on ac count of food. The object of this jnurney is to iumre a concert of action by all the French armies. NerYork, Dec. 3. A Trihnnt cor respondent from London says that a dispatch from Gambetta, oa Friday, announces that, encouraged by lhe continued resistance of the' Army of the Loire, he has reslved to postpone his request for an armistice, and re main with the army. Bordeaux, Dec. 11 Tbe Govern ment is installed here. Vigorons meas ures are decided upon. Lnrge rein forcements are going forward from at! parts of France. Troops are perfect ly armed and equipped. Numbers of batteries are ready with men and horses. Lrge cavalry forces are al.o formed. Several victories are an nounced. Thiers is here. Postal and tplegraph service is much interrupted. Tbe rumor tbat Prussia repudiates the treaty neutralizing Luxemburg is im probable, or that Bismarck would thus defy Belgium and the Netherlands. Tbe rumor of an armistice is unfounded. Tbe garrison of Belfori continues to make a vigorous defense, and its hero ism and endurance excite warm admi ration, j' Advices from Parts to the 6th, from Tours to tbe 9th, and from Brussels and Versailles to the 10th convey the following informatien : The French loss in killed, wounded and prisoners has reached 6,780 men in recent battles. Indications are tbat tbe next move will be on tbe north-east, along tbe Soissons railway. The Saxon head quarters had been removed back to Levert. The loss of gunners in sorties amount to over 800 killed, wounded and prisoners. The loss of Germans in battles on tbe Loire exceed 7,000 killed, wounded and prisoners. Intense relief is felt at Versailles at the recent announcement of the defeat of D'Aurelles. ! The battles on the 5th and 6th, be tween Cbaucey's ICth and 17th corps and tae army of tbe Duke of Mecklen burg, were extremely severe. The French are retreating only inch by inch. Farm Objiamihts. We must protest emphatically against tbe practice of expending all tbe taste, time and labor in tbe adornment or a irront yara The ont-look from the rear windows of a borne should be as gratifying as from tbe front. We want the inside of the platter clean as we,l! as the outside. And tbe same harmonious system should extend to every field on tbe farm. Vines should clamber over out houses, old stomps, nod all uncouth objects that cannot be removed, even tbougn tbe vines oe notbing but -hop or woodbine. Groups of evergreens or deciduous trees or shrubs screen or seclude tbe indispensable appurtenao ces of a farm which are, in themselves only necessities. Groups of trees ii every field are not only profitable albeit tbey do shade tbe grain some what but break up monotony, and relieve tbe eye aod the beart of tbe husbandman, as well as afford animals protection from tbe sun and Btoroi. Some idea of the vastness of tbe rail way transport of soldiers and military stores on the French lines during tbe war may be gathered from tbe returns of a recent week. The receipts of tb Lyon Mediterranean alone were 21 304 over those of the corresponding week last year, end tbe total .increase for all the railway of France derm tbe period aiaee the 1st of January 1870, as compared with the same period in 1869, reached tbe rnqriuaua (uro of 1, 497.928. t.-Gf course aom iI th lines which traversed tbe seat of war suffered: for instance the Eastern lost 38,511 in one week. w - r 4 ' A Troy Dutchman, in trying to rear tb ferrv boat, fell into tbe river. Hi first exclamation on being hauled out was, "Mine Gott,let' bar pndg l The German Empire. We read in the late dispatches tbat King William of Prussia is abont to receive, with tbe consent of the va rious States of North and South Ger many, tbe title of Emperor of Ger many, thus reviving in tbe nineteenth century an Empire tbat was great and glorious three centuries ago. It is interesting to trace the history of tbe Germans, as a people, from the time tbey were nominally subjugated by Ca-jar, down to tbe time, two thou sand years later, when tbey compose the foremost powers "of Europe, bar ing no superiors in tbe fields ot art, science and literature, and, it would seem, no equal in the terrible art of war. One of three grandsons of Charle magne was Kiug of Germany more than ten centuries since, and gradually tbe German Empire rose as successor to tbe power of the old Roman Empire. IJoder Charles tbe Fifth, wbo as Em peror of Germany, ruled over Spain, the Netherlands, Germany and Naples. The German name was for awhile all powerfal in the sixteenth eentnry. It wa rlntipg tHis century that France succeded in wresting from the German States the three bishoprics of Toul, Metz and Verdun, forming tbe prov ince of Lorraine which Prussia has conquered and new holds by force of arms. After the resignation of tbe Imperial Crown by Charles the Fifth, the Imperial authority sunk to the in significance beset by the formidable power of Turkey on the east and by France always a foe of the German States, on tbe west. In tbe seventeeth century Germany was cnt np into a multitude of petty States with rulers wbo. exercised despotic sway, and tbe peace of Westphalia, after the thirty years war which ended in 1648, also tore Aleace, which tbe German armies now hold, having taken Strasbourg, from tbe German Empire. Prussia, by the genius of Frederick the Great, became a great nation in the midst of the German States, and able to cope with Austria. As a na tion she has always been aggrandizing and disposed to grow at tbe expense cf her neighbors, and tbe policy she has rigidly pursued of, educating her peo ple and making every able bodied citi zen a well disciplined soldier, has laid tbe foundation of the new German Empire of which we read to-day. Had it not been for tbe skillful diplomacy and great statesmanship of B:smarck the Kingdom of Prussia would not bave been so thoroughly prepared for war, and the union of all the German States could not bave been secured for it hle prosecution. We may expect great things from German unity. Tbe German Empire may yet include, as its ally at least, the Empire of Austria, which has a population of over seven millions of Germans as its ruling class, and if this ran be attained the great nation, occu pying the center of Europe and stretch ing from the Bhores of the Baltic to those of the Mediteraoean, can sit as arbiter of tbe destinies of tbat conti nent. The future must develope if this re united Empire will prove beneficial to tbe human race, aod secure for man greater development and truer happi ness, or if it is to attempt to plant des potism more firmly on its thrones and create and perpetuate a system tbat shall make freedom impossible. There is reason to have great hopes of a people so enlightened as the Germans are, and we cannot believe tbat in the future tbey will be less free and intel ligent tbau in tbe past.

In 1 view of tbe fact tbat much mi (repre sentation prevails through the coun try regarding tbe existence of this dis ease in Salem, which may be greatly increased by onr statement tbat the Council is about to take more thor ough action to secure its examination, we wish to tell sotue things plainly and bave tbe public understand that oar stntement is tbe entire truth without aoy material omission. To begin then, if we have smallpox here, it has been bere for over six months, creat ing no alarm and not even being recog nized as such nntil it attacked mem bers of tbe Legislature. Since then tbe disease has prevailed among ns in a mild form, two children having died of it, and in a few other instances it has been severe. The people of Salem bave taken all reasonable precautions, aud have not lelt any alarm. About ten days ago there were only a few cases and those all convalescing and nearly well, and we hoped the disease was about to disappear, as it was coo fined to a few families who had bad it for some time; bnt within tbe last ten days we bear of five more cases, two in a family where it bas been for a month, two children of toother family and a child of Dr. Fiske, who must bave taken it from ber father wbo bas attended many wbo bave bad it. Just at tbe present time tbere is much less of it than there was a month ago, and as we want to eradicate it, the city au tborities are taking action to effect that result. We do not advise any per son to come to Salem wbo doesn't want to, but we see 00 reason wby those wbo want to come sbould stay away, for tbe disease prevails in all cases at a distance from tbe business part of the city. We go abont our business just as if tbsre was notbing to be afraid of, but as smallpox is'nt healthy, and business doesn't prosper in that connection, we propose to do all tbiugs necessary to bo done, to get rid of it, and tbat is all tbere is to be said, except that we ought to be thank ful that having such a disease prevail ing it bas showed to mild a form A rural English woman bad tbe right idea wneo, nnaiog herself nnable to whip her basband, U shoaled to ber OS, wbo VM op stair la bed, "Bill eome down tair aod lick tbi feyiber . or else be'Jl ba th' maistero' the whole bona." i Berlin advice tay there are 650,000 German troop in France twenty-one corps and three mors; eorp ander arms at home.. ' . FRIDAY. Tbe Proldfnt's Meuwige. The message of the President is too lengthy a document for ns to pohlisb, and we shall therefore give a plain summary of the various statement made in it. After a reference to ' the national prosperity to our country, he give particulars' of the protection anoHed. by the Minister of tbe United State to foreigners in France, and explains tbe altitude of this country towards the French nation ; also of tbe proposal to mediate, jointly with European na tions lortbe purpose of securing peace. After alluding to the late mfsci of French aod Prussians in China, tbe ratification of treaty with Great Britain of minor importance, and the proper location of onr northern boun dary he comes to the consideration of the ALABAMA CLAIMS. After stating that no eooclnsion has been arrived at for the settlement of this vexed quts'ijn, and the differ ence of opinion that prevails between tbe two nations, tbe President says: Tbe Cabinet of Loudon, so for as it views bave been expressed, does not appear to be willing to concede that Her Majesty's Government was guilty of negligence, or did, or permitted aoy act during tbe war by which tbe Uni ted States has just cause of complaint. Our firm and unalterable convictions are directly tbe reverse. I therefore recommend to Congress to authorize tbe appointment of Commissioners to take proof of tbe amounts aod own ership of vessels, and tbeir claims, and tbat auihority be given for tbe settlement of these claims by the Uni ted Stales, so the Government shall bave the ownership of tbe private claims as well as tbe responsible con trol of all demands againft Great Britain. Whenever Her Majesty's Government shall entertain a detire for a full aod friendly adjustment of these cUnui. the United States will enter upon their consideration with an earn est desire for a coo- loston consistent with tbe honor aud dignity of both nations. Tbe next important matter of tbe message refers to ibe FBOPOSEI) ACIJCISITIOS OF 8AS DOMIHOO. Tbe President repeats bis conviction that tbe best interests of tbe country require the ratification of the Treaty for the purchase of that Island. ! He intimates tbat tb.re is danger tbat European nations will secure tbe Bay of Samana as a tree port it we do not speedily ramplete that purchase. He adds : The people of San Domingo are not capable of maintaining themselves in their present condition, and moat look fjr outside support. Tbey yearn for tbe protection of our free institutions and laws, our progress andcirilizi tion. Shall we refuse them ? The ai quisitioa of Sao Domingo is desira ble because of its geographical posi tion ; it commands the entrance to the Carribean Sea, and tbe I:tbmus transit of commerce. It possesses the richest soil, tbe best aud most capacious har bors, most salubrious climate, and tbe most valuable products Of tbe forests, mines, and soil of aoy nf tbe West In dia islands. Its possession by the United States will, in a few years, build up a coastwise commerce of im mense magnitude, which will gofarto ward restoring to tbe Uui'ed States onr lost merchant marine. It will give to us those articles which we consume greatly, and do not produce, thus equalizing our exports and imports. Ii. case ot a foreign war, it will give ns command 01 all the i.-lands referred to, and thus prevent any enemy from again possessing himself of a rendez vous upon our coast. There follows a glowing picture des criptive of tbe advantages expected from the acquisition of that Islaod and an appeal to Congress to take im mediate steps to negotiate its pur chare. CCRHENCr AND BARKS. After repeating recommendations pre viously mado for establishing for tbe redemption of National Bank Issues, tbe Prrsidnt says : Coupled with tbis recommendation, I take tbis occasion to say that tbe banking sratem of tbe country appears to be well managed, and to actwvr reasonably tbe purpose for which it was established. It is no doubt true that tbe Treasury notes, in represent- . I I nu- wn n n r. t I f , k m ftiiiKlii " -" i1 debt wittiout interest, are toe most economical circalitinn for tbe Govern ment ; but it should be considered tbat tbe banking institutions of tbe country are the agencies by wbivb business is established and fostered. Tbe whole system of banking should be extended only for the purpose of meeting tbe demands of business, but when tbe demands are urgent, a con cession sbould be made, upon tbe grouud tbat prosperity of business is more important than tbe mere saving of interest arising from tbe circula tion of tbe Treasury notes. We give below bis words entire opon the BEVITAL OV AMStlOAX COMKKRCI. Our depressed commerce is a vubjert to which 1 called your special attention at tbe last sessiuo, aod suggested tbat it would, in the future, bave to look more to tbe countries south of us and to China aod Japan, for its market. Our representatives to all these Gov ernments bave exerted tbeir influence to encourage trade between the United Slates and tbe countries to which tbey accredited, but the fact exists, we cat- not control our due share of the com merce of the world. That between tbe Pacific Slates and China and Japan, is abont all the carrying trade now cot ducted in American vessels. I woull recommend a liberal policy toward tbat line of American steamers one that will Insure its success and its in creased usefulness. The cost of build ing iron vessels thi only ooes tbat can compete with foreign ships in tbe carrying trade is so much greater iu the Uoite.d States than in foreign conn- tries, tbat without tome assistance from tbe Government, tbey rannot be successfully built here. Tbere will be several propositions laid before Congress in tbe course of the present session, looking to a remedy for this evil; even if it should be at some coat to the National treasury, I bope tarh encouragement will be given as will revive American shipping on tbe high seas, and American sbip-baiNing at borne. BXTCB TO IPICII PAYMCRT. The average value of gold, at com pared with national currency for the year 1869, was about 134, aod fur tbe eleven months of 1870 the same rela tive value baa been about 115. This approach to a specie basis is very gratifying, but tbe fact cannot be de nied tbat the instability of the value of onr currency is prejudicial to our prosperity and tend to keep np prices to the detriment ot trade. Tbe evils of a depreciated and fluctuating cur rency are to great, tbat now, when the premium on gold has faHVa so mwch that it would seem that tbe time has SMTiTed when by prudent legislation Congress should look to a policy which wo old place onr currency at par with gold at no distaat day. - r -Ht-es- EBDCCTtOM Of TAXiTIOX. , . S Tb tax collected from tb -people bas been reduced more than eight million dollars per annum, by steadi ness la onr present course; there is no reason wby, in a few short years,- th national tax gatherer may not disap pear front tbe door of the citizen al most . entirely. With the revenue stamps dispensed by postmasters in every community, a tax upon liquors of all eorts, aod tobacco in all its forms, aod by a nice adjustment of tbe tariff, which will pat a duty only upon those articles which we could dispense with, known as luxuries, and on those which we use more of than we produce, revenue enough may be raised after few years of peace and consequent re daction ot indebtedness, to fulfill all our obligations. nEVIXCI REFORM. In addition to tbis, a reduction of internal accon.its nmy be relied on tO: make tbis practicable. Revenue re rvfurm, if it means this, bas my early' support; if it implies a collection of all tbe revenue for tbe support of tbt Government, for the payment of prin. cipal and interest of tax, public debt, pensions, Ac, by direct taxation on tlfj people, tueu I am agaiost revenue re form, aod confidently believe the peo ple are with me. If it means failure to provide tbe necessary means to de fray all expenses of tbe Government, aod thereby repudiate the publie debt, then I am stilt more opposed to tech a kind of revenue. Revenue reform bas not b-en defined by aoy of its advo cates to my knowledge, but seems to be accepted as something wbicb is to supply every man's wsnti, without any cost or effort on his part. A true revenue reform Cannot be made in a day, bat must be tbe work of National legislation, aod of time. As soon as the revenue can be dispensed with, ail duty sbould be removed from coffee, tea and other articles of universal nse, not produced by ourselves. The ne cessities of tbe country compel as to collect revenue from our imports. An army of assessors and collectors is not a pleasant sight to the citizens, but tbat, or a tariff for revenue, is neces sary. Such a tariff, so far as it acts as an encouragement to borne products, alf irds employment t9 tbe labortr at living wages, io contrast to tbe Old World, and also in tbe duvelopment of home resources. OTHEB MATTERS. The President pleads for a more pow erful nary, and shows bow inadequate Vur naval force is; tbe Postal Service is represented as working satisfactori ly. Considerable space is given to a discussion of the trouble existing with reference to the Canadian fisheries, and the free navigation of the St. Lawrence as necessary to our commercial pros perity. Sbould the Canadas refute to make fair terms with reference to tbe fisheries question and tbe navigation of tbat river, be recommends onfriead ly legislation on our part to bring tbem to an understanding of their prop er interests. , CIVIL SEBT1CB BtrOKM. Always favoring practical reforms, I would respectfully call your attention to an abuse of long standing, which I sbould like to see remedied by tbl Con gress, ll is a reform io tbe civil ser vice of the country. I would bave it go beyond tbe mere fixing of tbe ten. ure of offices of clerks and employees, wbo do not require tbe advice and coo sent of tbe Senate to make tbem com plete. I would have it govern not the tenere, but tbe manner of making ap pointments. There is no duty which so much embarrasses tbe Executive and heads of Departments as tbat of appointments. Nor is tbere any such arduous and thankless labor imposed on Senators and Representatives as tbat of boding places tor tbeir constituents. Tbe present system does not secure tbe best, and otlen not even fit men, for piblic place. The elevation and purification of the civil service of the Government will be hailed with ap proval by the whole people ol tSe Uni ted States. THE NEW POLICY, TOWARD THI IX0IA5S. Reform in tbe management of tbe Indian affairs has received tbe special attention of tbe Administration from its inauguration to tbe present day. Tbe experiment of making It a mission ary work was tried, with a few Agen cies given to the denomination of Friends, and bas been found to work most advantageously. Alt tbe Agen cies and Superintendences not so dis posed of were given to officers cf the army. The Aei of Congress regulating the army renders army officers ineligi ble far civil positions; Indian Agencies being civil offices, I determined to give all the Agencies to such religious de nominations as had heretofore estab lished missionaries among tbe Indians, and perhaps to some other denomina tions wbo would undertake the work on tbe same plan as missionary work. Tbe societies selected are allowed to name tbeir own agents, subject to the approval of tbe Executive, and are ex pected to instruct and aid tbem as mis sionaries to Christianize and civilize tbe Indians, and train tbem in tbe arts of peace. The Government watches over the official acts of these agents, and re quires of tbem as strict an accounlabil- itr as if tbey were appointed in any other manner. Tbe confident bope tbat the policy now pursued will, la a few years, bring all tbe Indiana upon tbe reservations, where they will live ia bouses, have schools and churches, will be pursuing peaceful and self-sut taining avocationt, and where tbey may be visited by the law-abiding white man wilb tbe rame impunity that be now visits the civilized white settlement. I call your special atten tion to tbe report of tbe Commissioner of Indian AfTiirs for full information on the subject. PUBLIC LARD Tbe President's message contains tbe following upon tbit important sub ject: During the last fiscal year, 8,095,- 413 acres of public lands were disposed of; of thi quantity, 3,699,810 acres were taken under tbe Homestead law, and 2,159,515 acres were sold for cash. Tbe remainder was treated with mili tary warrants, college or Indian scrip, or applied in satisfaction of grants to railroad, or for other public uses. The entries noder tbe Homestead law, during tbe last year, covered 961,545 acres more than those during the pre ceding year. Surveys bave been vig orously prosecuted to tbe extent of the means applicable to tbe purpose. Tbe quantity of land in market will amply supply tbe present demand..; Tbe claim of tbe tettlert ander tbe homestead or pre-emption law it not, however, limited to landt tnbject to tale; at private entry unappropriated inrvejed public land may be acquired under tbe former laws, if tbepa4ty en tilled to enter noder tbem will comply with tbe requirements tbey prescribe in regard to tbe residence in cultiva tion. Tbe actual settlers' preference to right of purchase is even broader and extends to- lands which were no surveyed at the time of hi settlement; bis right wat formerly confined wiihin much narrower limit and at on pe riod of onr history was conferred only by tpeeial statute. They were enaeted from time to time to legalise what was then regarded as an authorized intru aion apon tbe publio domain.. Th opinion that the public revenae abould be regarded cbieSy a a source ot rev enue it no longer maintained, for rapid settlement eod.snccettlal cultivation of tbem is now justly considered of more importance to our well-being than is tbe fund which the sale of tbem' would produce.. Tbe remarka ble growth and prosperity of onr new d.atet and Territories attest tb wis data of th legislation which iavitei tbe tiller of th toil to procure a per T maneni borne reach tjf all. on terms within th The I pioneer who incurs tb danger and privations ot a frontier life, and that'aid in tbe foundations of new. commonwealths, renders a tignal ser vice to bit country and it entitled to ws special faror and protection. Tbe law secure tbat object and largely pro roof the general wellare; they sbould tbf refore be cherished as a permanent fei'.ure of our system. Good faith r ires ns to give full effect to tb ex- ing grants. Tbe time-honored and benefir.ient oliey of letting apart certain teetiona f public land for education Dumoaea u tbe new Stetes.abould be continued. when public provision shall bave been made for the object. I submit, at a question worthy of of teriout consideration whether tbe retidue of our National domain should not be totally disposed of under the provisions of the homestead aod pre emption laws. In addition to tbe twamp and over flowed landt granted to the Statet in wbieb tbey are tituated, tbe landt ta ken under the . Agricultural College Acta, and for internal improvement purposes, under the Act of September 13th and tbe supplemental thereto, tbere bad been conveyed np to the close of tbe last fiscal year, by patent or other equivalent, evidence of title ta Bute asd corporations, 2,783,025, 713 acres. It is estimated that an ad. ditiooal quantity of 174,734,523 acres is still due under grants for like use. Tbe policy of thus aiding tbe State in building works of internal improve ment was inaugurated more than forty years since, in tbe graDts to Indiana and Illinois to aid those States in open ing canals to connect tbe waters of tbe Wabash with those of Lake Erie, aod ibe waters of Illinois with those of Lake Michigan ; it was followed, with some modification, in tbe grant to Illi nois of alternate sections of public land within certain limit of the Illi nois Central Railroad. Fourteen Stales aod sundry corpor ations bave received similar subsidies in connection with railroads complet ed, or in process of construction. At tbe reserved sections are rated at tbe double minimum, tbe sale of them at tbe enhanced price has thus, in many instances, .indemnified tbe Treasury for the granted land. Tbe construc tion of some of these thoroughfare has undoubtedly given a vigorous im petus to the development of our re sources and tbe settlement ol the more distant portions of the country. It, may, however, be nnderttood that much of our legislation in this regard has been characterized by indiscrimi nate and profuse liberality. Tbe Uni ted States sbould not loan their credit in aid of any enterprise undertaken by States or Corporations, nor grant landt in any instance, unlest tbe projected work is of acknowledged national im portance. I am strongly inclined to tbe opinion that it is inexpedient and unnecessary to bestow subsidies of either description ; but sbould Con gress determine otherwise, I earnestly rerommeded that tbe rights of settlers aod of tbe public be more effectually secured and protected by appropriate legislation.

The special meeting of the City Council wa held last even ing;, at wbicb tbe proposed Ordinance relating to appointment of a pbviician to attend smallpox patients, if any more cases occur, was debated at length aod re-referred to a committee consisting of Alderman William, Siarkev and Skiff, to be reported on next Tuesday evening. Tbere are five smallpox cases in town, existing in three families, each of wbicb employs a different physician. The Medical F ac ally consider it advisable that one physician be employed by tbe city to attend all such cases, wbicb would re duce tbe danger of the spread of the diaease. Tbe Ordinance pronoeed con- 'Lined ranch that we thought wat on- necessary, ont we nope no time win be lost in . designating some particular physician to attend "cases should soch occur, for it is only reasonable to sup. pese tbat physicians will sometimes carry tbe disease with them in spite of all precautions. Tbere are now very few cases in town, and with nroner pains taken we can soon be rid of it. There bas been no new cases for a week past. Facts rot Cohstitctiho a Rohakce. The people of Salem were consider ably surprised to bear, abont a month since, that a lady wbo bad been left tn very comfortable circumstance by her late husband was wedded to a person considerably yoooger than herself, named W. B. Chandler. Tb day of the marriage he drew over ' $5,000 of ber money from tbe bank, and they took the first train for Portland and went by steamer for San Francisco. The general prediction made her wat tbat she bad been deceived into marry, log an adventurer who wonld seen re wbat money' be eonld eatily lay hold of and make some excuse to forsake her. Thi prediction bat been verified by tbe return of tbe lady, tolut, and it appear that the day before tb sailing of the steamer, jnst arrived, he fur nished her with m pretended telegram, forged for tbe occasion , and signed with tbe name of ber oldest son, wbieh stated tbat her children at Salem were taken down with smallpox.
