The Soldier.

We have received the following letter from a soldier: HAUTE, July 11, 1870.

R. N. HUDSON—Sir: Will you please publish tbe late acts of Congress in rearard

to the soldiers entering lands in the West, or at least the advantage the soldier has over the citizen and how lonec a time (if any) is Riven the soldier to make preparations for entering such lands. And, also, if those who were officers in the army are included, and have the same privileges as other soldiers Any information you can give us on this point will le thankfully received by MANY SOLDIKRS.

We know of no law which has recently passed Congress in relation to this matter. A bill embracing some of the provisions inquired of in the above communication, was introduced into Congress, but never passed. We suppose it remains quietly on the files, where also remains every other measure in which the people's interests were sought to be protected.

Congress has had no time to pass bills allowing soldiers to enter land in the West, and thus secure for themselves and their children comfortable homes. It has been to busy otherwise. Besides, there are no lands to spare in the West, for soldiers. They are all reserved for the use of rings and "land grabbers.'* Innumerable bills have passed Congress giving away millions, yea, hundreds of millions of acres of the richest lands in all the West to railroads and ring's—but not one ctcrc to the soldier. Wiiat care this Corrupt body of men about the poor soldier? If they vote large grants of land to some combination or ring, the ring or combination pays tliem for it but if they are asked to vote to give the soldier a few acres, the soldier is generally too poor to pay anything for the vote, and hence no attention is paid to his wants.

Oh no. The soldiers are expecting too much, if they are expecting this Congress to do anything for them. There is no powerful lobby influence at Washington, working for them. No money used in their behalf. No one to buy a bill through, and therefore no bill will ever get through.

The distinguished Representative from this district has been so busy himself in getting through the House great "Land Grabs," that he could not find time to do ahy thing for the poor soldier. When he advocated in the Committee, with great warmth and ability, the passage of the bill giving unlimited millions of acres of land to the Northern Pacific Railroad, he had no time to think about giving any to the soldiers in his district for their services in saving that country, which he said was dying, dying, dying."

If the soldiers of the country ever want any bills passed by Congress in their behalf, they must see to it, -that a new set of men be sent there as their representatives. Sweep out that corrupt den of money getters at Washington, and have honest men to go there. The men who fought to preserve and save this country have some right to its bounties, at any rate they have a right to be heard, and they should begin to speak out. Tell Mr. Voorliees that he has assisted in giving vast bodies of lands to corrupt rings, but none to the soldiers, ami therefore the soldier is against him, and his aspiratious to further represent them. Not only tell this to our Representative, but to a great majority of the members of Congress who have occupied seats in that body since the war closed. They have proved themselves unfit for the place. They are shown to be vile and corrupt, from the many vile and corrupt laws they have made and bills they have voted for. A change could not certainly be for the worse, and might be greatly for the better.

REV. T. A. GOODWIN will resume the publication of tho Indiana American on the 17th of August, as a semi-weekly.— Ind. Journal.

Start a new, live paper, "Tom," and don't "revive" auything, much less the Indiana American. It was a good old slow coach, just thirty years ago, and if you now undertake to resurrect it, and galvanize its old bones iuto anything like life, it will empty "your pockets so soon that it will make your eyes bat. There are railroads, telegraphs and lightning generally now, and resuming old things won't do.

THE examination in the case of the missing bonds belonging to the estate of the late John Alexander, of New Orleans, was concluded before the Surrogate, Hutchings, in New York, yesterday. The Surrogate announced that on Monday next he would grant an order to Mrs. Burke, the daughter and executrix of Alexander, for the delivery of the bonds deposited in the Union Trust Company, unless there had been an order of the Superior Court directing them to be left there pending the litigation now going on in that court.

NEW YORK.

WciMlell Pliillipi Spoken of for tlie Ensli&Ii Mission—More Cabinet ltumors— Aspect of European Affairs as Viewed from this Hemisphere—-Obseqnies of

Lingard, the Actor. NEW YORK, July 11.—A Washington special says that the President in conversation with prominent Senators, mentioned the name of Wendell Phillips in connection with the mission to England.

In relation to the mission to Berlin and Secretaryship of State, the name of George P. Marsh, Senator Conkling, Caleb Cushing and General Butler were also spoken of in a friendly spirit. It was suggested that in view of the opposition of Senators Sumner and Wilson and other members of the New England delegation in Congress to the removal of Motley, that no objections could be urged against Phillips from that quarter, that he was a representative American, not likely to be influenced by English peculiarities, that he is well known in England anclappreeiated forliis acknowledged ability everywhere, and would at once take a leading rank among the diplomatists of the old world.

The merits of other gentlemen were also discussed with liberality and favor. The President, however, gave no indication of future appointments.

Another Cabinet rumor, relative to the possible retirement of either Secretary Robeson or Secretary Cox, or both, is also being quietly circulated.

London specials to the Herald says a crisis is imminent on the Continent. Military preparations were going on almost night and day in Paris. If the candidature of Prince Leopold is not withdrawn within the next twenty-four hours the French Ministers will be recalled from Berlin and Madrid and war will be declared. The conduct of France in forcing the issue and in refusing to leave the question of the throne to the Spanish people, is strongly condemned by all Europe, and Prussia's calm and dignified position is approved.

The negotiations between Paris and Ems are said to be unsatisfactory. Prussia, declaring her innocence of intrigue, refuses to interfere with the candidature of Hohenzollen and that she has neither right, power nor inclination to dictate to Spain or Prince Leopold.

A large party in France counsel suspension of action until after the meeting of the Cortes of Spain. The general belief is that the Emperor is determined to fight, and will move instantly without giving Prussia time for preparations. It said that Napoleon would prefer to meet that issue now than after Prince Leopold is elected by Spanish people, especially as he bases claims of his own dynasty on the popular vote.

The obsequies of James W. Lingard, the actor, who committed suicide on Wednesday, were solemnized at Rev. Dr. Gallagher's church yesterday. Over four thousand persons were present, including Mrs. Lingard and her family and a large number of prominent professional friends of the deceased. Mrs. Lingard rode in a carriage to the grave protected by policemen.

PARIS, July 11.—The strike at Mulhouse continues, and nearly 10,000 workmen are idle.

MADRID, July 11.—The Admiral and officers of the American squadron have arrived and were warmly received. The Admiral awaits the arrival of a party of American military officers to inspect the fortifications of Europe cities.

It was stated at the interview on Saturday, that Serrano told Mercier, the French Minister that, as a rule he, never interfered with nominations for the throne, and desired it not to be said of him that he wished to retain the regency, and he added that in the affair of Leopold he acted as in previous cases.

MADRID, July 11.—The Regency has renewed its declaration that the choice of Hohenzollern was dictated by no hostility to France.

The Republican newspapers blame the Government for the present crisis, and think that the immediate proclamation of a Republic would be the best reply to France.

They feel unwilling to risk their lives without some protection from the Government troops.
