upon that suojcct, iu which the President
was charged with, tong a spocoUtor in public

- On coming out of the- Capitol, the su

tln.ae in powM were the authors; by wnicn
Ihev had prohtcti; and which this measure,
should it become a law.would not complete.
then asked what had csnsetl such an , ex-
tr iordtnaiy demand for public land, that the
sales should have mora than quintrupiso
within the last throe year? end said that,
