United states of America in

or other public enter
prise, under any of the land laws
of the United States, and have
paid to the United Stales at tin
rate of two dollars and fisiy cents
per act e for such i.tndb &o pur
chased, by teasou solely because
juch evsti numbered sections are
within the limits of such cmigres
cional grant, aud since the date of
such purchase and payment the
edd-nu nbered sections within
such congressional grant, adj icent
to and coterminous with such even
numbered section or parts of sec
tions so purchased, have been or
.-hall by the United States at any

cases, upon the application of the
person or persons so purchasing
parts or portions of such even
numbered sections as aforesaid, to

from the United States in the sum
of one dollar and twenty-five cents
per acre, in cash, for each and ev
ery acre so purchased by him or
them, and for which the sum of
two dollars and filty cents had
been paid; and it shall be the du
ty in each of said cases of the com
missioner of the general land
office, if he finds such claimant n
it!ed to reimbursement under the
provisions of this act, to issue his
certificate to such claimant certi
fying such fact to the second
comptroller, of the treasury de
pariment, and stating therein tin
amount to which such claimant is

then issued in favor of such claim
ant, be paid by the treasurer of

tion of proper draft therefore; and

Chicago, Feb. 8. The Times'
Ottawa (Ontario) special say&:
Some mistake appears to have
been made in thq announcement
that the British government are
sendimr out a number of eisrhtv-
ton guns for the coast defense of
b-qtjiraalt and' victoria, beveral
sixty-four pounders have been sent
out from England, not for the
armament of forts, but to be placed
either on board of British ship'; of
war belonging to the Pacific squad
ron, to go into the naval reserves.
Some time ago tho British minis
tor of war made application to the
Canadian Pacific railway folks to
knmv if thev could tr,mrort. nnf
or more eighty-ton guns over their
road. An estimate of the cost w;;s
given, with a model of tho car
which it was intended to use if the
shij ment were made. Since ihen
nothing has tyoen heard of the
eg!ity-ton gun. The officer in
charge of the British Columbii dis
trict do.-a not speak very favoiahly
ot the couditioir if the a-mtmeut
at that point. The guns, he re.
ports, are few. with rotten timbers
dnd curriuged, while the gum art)
without sights. The batteries at
Victoria and Esquimault, ihe of
ficer sas. arefin a rfi-creditable
condition.
