Congress gave to certain a portion of our land, and we as the owners of the sa'Hje, with the "consent of the Gov ernment, gave to others who we believed were entitled thereto, and we propose to give the balance to our children as the last of that great inheritance once in the possession of the liamis. What rights have the settlers upon our lands The answer is plain uone in justice or equity. But politically they have votes, and in this are they stronger than 'we.

This is not the 'Iceiolvctt, that the committee on public lands be directed to inquire into the expediency of allowing every soldier who served ninety days and upward in the army of the United States during the late war of the rebellion, and received an honorable discharge therefrom, to select one hun-derd and sixty acres of the public lands subject to sale, including the alternate reserved sections along the lines of railroads to which grants have been or may hereafter be made, and which may be unoccupied by preem-tion or homestead claims, and to receive a patent therefor, at the expiration of five years fiom the date of such selection, without requiring any occupancy of the same, and that said committee reported by bill or otherwise." The Topeka Commonwealth, concerning the above, says "we rejoice that an effort is thus being made to give au additional remuneration to the men who bore the brunt of the battle, and faithfully served their time in the armies of our common country.

The freedom from the ravages of Indians of oar frontier for the year past is spoken of, aud only tliree settlers are known to have been killed during the past season, by them. The repeal of the clause iu eur Constitution which prohibits former rebels from voting is recommended. Agriculture, Commerce and Manufactures receive extended attention, and our railroads and manufactories are referred to as already accomplishing great things for theprospeiity of the State. Legislation to encourajre aud foster immigration is reccommeuded in strong terms, and as the Governor's views are practical and to the point, it iB hoped that they may meet with erment, who demanded remoonerashen likewise, but they didn't ask a second Jan7-3pi passed upon our rights for many years. In June, 1854, the Miami Indians of Kansas, jointly with their brethren ia Indiana, concluded a treaty with the United States, whereby the said Indians sold to the Government their tract of land in the Indian Territory (new Kansas), supposed to con for that purpose.

Did this look as though the Indians gave them encouragement. But the settlers did not keep their promise. They remained, for the troops were gone, and they had no cause of fear. Time aud time again were they warned to leave the Reservation.

At last, after we had been threatened with violouee should we dare to come upon or take possession of the lands patented to us by the United States, we appealed to the Government, asking that troops be sent to remove these trespassers. We made the application ourselves, through our Agent, James Stanley, in last June or July. We again petitioned the Department iu October last, and in December last the troops were ordered here.

Along the lines of the railroads which now span the continent, a hardy and energotic body of men would locate and build homes for themselves and their children.
