Important Land Bills Besides the bill introduced by Mr. Morrill, for distributing a portion of. the public lands of the United States'for the endowment of. State Agricultural Col* legCs, there,are other important bills be* fore Congress, affecting the disposal of this national reabestate. Mr. Foot, of the Senate, bas introduced a bill to grant **a homestead of one hundred and sixty acres of pnblic lands to actual settlers;” and Mr. Johnson, of Tennessee, another of like import, requiring "occupancy and cultivation” of the land so granted,'for the period of five years. A bill has also been introduced by'Mr. Grow, the .object of which is to-check the Und speculations which have been .heretofore ao entered into, on every occasion of bringing new lands into market, and to encourage actual settlement. This bill prohibits the future sale of public lands under procla* mation of .the President, until the same shall have been surveyed for at least fib teen years.

Message.

—Tho Kato French and Pik«.

Tho President's message occupies four columns in'type. It says that delusion prevails as to the condition of parties in Kansas—recapitulates the history of past affairs —pronounces the Topeka government an nsnrpation, and says it is impossible that any people could have proceeded with more regularity in the formation of the Lecomplon constitution than the people of Kansas have done. The convention in June last was a propitious moment to settle the difficulties, brit the Topekaites suffered the election to go by default, . Henco they have no right to complain. The Lecomplon.con vention was legally constituted and inyested with power to frame a constitution, which it did, and submitted the question to the people whether Kansas should be n free or a. slave Stale. . The President believes that, under the organic net, the convention was bound to submit this all important question to the people. . They did so, and again the Topokailes defaulted. •> At the election of officers', January 4th, a wiser spirit prevailed, and the vote was larger. Tba people of .Kansas.have, therefore, in strict conformity with the' organic act, framed-a constitution and Stale Government,* submitted the slavery question In the people,' elected officers, and. now ask admission into the Union under line constitution. , The ‘President Is decidedly in. favor of its admission and'thus terminating the Kansas question by localizing the distracting •inilneuccs;: As the question of cxpwliency, even; Kansas shonld bo admitted,.inasmuch an it would restore qiiiet to the Union -'and propriety ,to the Territory and to; the people of Kansas. Tho only practical difference between admission and rejection, is whelhorThey can more speedily change their present constitution or frame a second,; to bo submitted to Coogrcss. It should never be forgotten Ibat iri proportion to the insignificance of the «lavc;'question; as./affecting the few thousand inhabitants of Kansas, the fourteen slave Stales will feel the rejection of the constitution keenly. .. Kansas,.once admitted, the excitement becomes localized, and the troops can he withdrawn. . 'The following is tho’ concluding portion of the mesaago: ' • \ ■ Every patriot, in. iho country had- indulged tholiopc that Kansas Nebraska act would put a final end to slavery agitation —at least ill Congress—which had convulsed the country and endangered the Union, This act .involved great and fundamental principles, and if fairly carried into effect will'settle the question.- .Should agitation ,bo again, renewed; should the people of sister States be again estranged from each other with more than their former bitterness, this will arise from a cause, so fur as tho interest of Kansaslaro concerned, more trilling and insignificant than has ever stirred the elements of a. great people into, commotion; To the people of Kansas the. only practical difference between the admission or rejection depends solely upon the fact whether they . can themselves more speedily’ change their present constitution, if it dbes;not accord with the will of tho majority, or frame a second constitution to be submitted to Congress herealter. Even if this were a question of mere expediency, and not of right, the small difference of lime, one way or the otheri is not of the least'importance when contrasted with the evils which must necessarily-result to tho.wholo country from the revival of tho slavery agitation. In considering this question it should never bo forgotten that tho proposition itself is insignificant, let the decision be what it may, so far as it may affect a few thonaand inhabitants of Kansas, who have j from the beginning resisted tho constitution and laws. For this very reason tho rejection of tho constitution will bo so much the more severely felt by the people of frontier Slates of this Union where slavery is recognized under the constitution of the United.Stales.

i Jt seems now lo be pretty.*well settled that the poblionre determined to sustain , the Kale French, as an independent boat I between Cincinnati and Madison. It is | believed tube for the public good that the Madison Packets should bo independent of ■the Mail Boats. The extortions of the Lady Pike for several yoara post clearly establish this fact. Since the Kate French has been in the trade, the trading and traveling pnbltc between Cincinnati and Madison, havesaved in freights and pas* sages more than both boats (the Kate and Pike) arc worth.. The Med Boats and Pike, owned and contrslcd by the same men, have made on freights and passen* gers, probably' more Than $1.0,000 less than they would have made, hod the Kate not ted need the ; farc.‘ \VhiVfhe has made 50in<i money in; tlio trade at her .prices, with the Pike fanning against her. at half prices,[ishe has saved : the public on tlie Pike’s prices before she came into the line, some three or four thousand dollars, on the business she has done. There is no personal hostility to. Capt; | David; but his private interest and feel| i ings roost not be allowed to interfere with 'the public gdod, in this matter. Do iknows-Aoic he came to bb Captain oh a boat belonging.to the old L'ooisvi|lo and i Wheeling lino-— how the Mail r Boat Co. | broke down that dine,"and. what part he i played in the matter, and hoio ho came to | bo in the Cincinnati and Madison trade, I under the patronage and protection of tbtj j Mail Boat Company. , Capt..David most jnot expect his personal friends to sacrifice !the public good for his private interests in 'keeping up the Mail Boat monopoly of ’the Cincinnati and Madison trade. It ! would ho asking too, much. Tho objoc;tiori to tho Pike is its connexion with tab I Louisville Boats, and ire former high (charges, and its present mean low charges, under the, direction of their owners: i Why do the; Pike’s owners depend on her moan half-prices to got 'custom and drive off the French, rather than on fair living prices and public accommodations? Do they think ;tlm people fools? ' Do they not'know Tlmt their course, since the | French come into the trade, in tho redaction of prices .'is esteemed/meaner, and is I more offensive to .the honor and moral feeling of thof pub)ic than, their former extortions?'. If , they - do not, they are in a fair way of finding it pot, ■ • i] [ Tho-Pike is/in the habit of grabbing tlio freight belonging to the French. Not satisfied witli her own duplicity in doing busincsk at dying rates, she grabs up | freight, whenever she has a chance, destined by its owners for the French, This hi oven ntbanor than her gulltrap half prices. Tins incauncss hurts hnr infiuitely more than the French. It is a game that cannot bo played with any success. It is a‘ losing game; and redounds to the benefit of those it is intended to injure. . All-lho French asks is an open field and' fair play; and that the people are : giving her. . f ■With few exceptions,‘the wharf Masters on! tho lino arc fair and honorable, and where they are not the people will see to it that tho French has, tho business (hat tknj order for her. Let all who desire to see the Mail Boats and Madison-Packets . owned and control cd by separate nnd'indepeadcat interests, arid, who arc delcrwined to put on effectual stop tathc extortions of the past, keep thcir cyes open, and see that the French has ah open-field and fair play, and all will soon be right. * OCT v '
