[From Our Regular Correspondent.] February 1G, 1889. Secretary Coleman is now tbe offiiial title of the gentleman who has so jfficieDtly presided over the Agriculural Department, as Commissioner, inder the present administration. Che elevation of Mr. Coleman to the sabicefc was an act on the part of the President which spoke loudly in favor A tbe manner in which tbe arduous luties of the Commissioner of Agrimltnre have been performed, and the prompt confirmation of the nominaion by the Senate was, in view of tbe arge number of political appointnents now " huDg up," a compliment ,hat Mr. Coleman may be excused of eeling proud. The only thing in this jonnecfcion to be regretted is that the jountry is so soon to lose the valua>le services of Secretary Coleman. Eveu the Republicans are compelled ;o acknowledge that Secretary Whitley's management of the Navy De- ; jartment has been all that could be tsked. The latest Republicans to >ublicly put themselves on the record o this effect were Senator Plumb and Senator Hale, both of whom eulogized Secretary Whitney in speeches made )Q the Naval appropriation bill. Four rears more of Whitney and we would lave a navy of which we might be >roud. Mr. Harrison will be fortulate indeed if he can had a man who ian make a record equal to that of he present secretary. Mr. Randall's Appropriation Comnittee, having finished its regular vork, is now considering the Cowles fill, repealing the tobacco tax. What vill be done with it depends upon vhat the House will do with the Senate tariff bill, which has been adrersely reported by the Ways and lleans Committee, and whether if the Senate bill is defeated, as now seems irobable, the latter committee will eport any other tariff or revenue UtittbUltt. A strong lobby is working on the Jenate Committee on Territories, enieavoring to get an unfavorable re)ort from that committee on the )klahoma bill. The opposition is >eing led by ex-Senator McDonald of ndiana, and is likely, from the best nformation yonr correspondent can )btain, to fail.

I etauding i ji nUiiHiw "'rtrnt Concerning Forfeited Lands. A meetiog of the Sinking Fund j Commission was held in Columbia on Tuesday of last week, and tbe matters considered were mainly of a routine character. The Secretary of State, the commission's agent, wa3 authorized to issue a circular letter to all persons interested in lands forfei'ei to the State, giving the amount due and notifying that euit will be brought if payment is not made. As the matter is one of general interest, the following summary of the circular is given : Tbe Secretary of State states that by virtue of th^act approved December 24, 1887, and the amendments thereto, approved December 24,1888, he, as agent of the Sinking Fund Commission, is authorized to bring an action as for debt against the former owners, or any person or persons having any legal or .eqaitable interest in, any lands which have been forfeited to the State, for the recovery of the full amount of all taxes, costs and penalties accrued to and including the levy of 1886. Then follows the description of the land in each special case, and a statement of the accumulated charges up to the time at which the property passed into the charge of the Sinking Fnnd Commission, .'he simple taxes which have since accrued, the fee for discharge, and the total charges against the properTyto and inclpdiDg the levy of 1886. The person to whom the circular letter is addressed is thfcn notified that if settlement of the amount be not made to the Secretary of State within thirty days from date, suit will be brought, and upon judgment being obtained, an execution will be issued and the said land will be sold by the sheriff , at public sale io satisfy the stated amount and the. costs of suit * v-.i! A biaDk lorm 61 application IB 111closed, the circular printed on the inner pages of which gives fall information as to bow to proceed to obtain a discbarge. By settling without delay those interested will save a large amount of extra costs and expenses. Pimples, Sores,v Aches and Pains.
