I IHE ADVERTISER. It. V. FURNAS, EDITOR. THURSDAY ilOILSlNG, 11AUCI1 25, 1S53. Land Sales. We have reliable informatics of a late cate.fronj Washington, that iheL&siDs; pareat has determined to have a pub lic sale of lands in Nebraska and Kansas' tins season. The sales in Nebraska will take place in September. We are glad the ealesin thisTerritory have been so delayed as to give us the, benefit of the present sea son's emigration. - Great credit is due our worthy Delegate, Hon. Fxxsra Fcbgcs ox, for hisrontinued and thus far, success ful, efforts in behalf of the actual settlers. ,We are confident his course will give gen eral satisfaction. The Ddkotah City Herald of ihe 17th reads cs a lecture for copying into the ' Advertiser, a few weeks since, a para graph from the New Orleans Picayune, : "Extravagance" of the Territories." The Herald misrepresents us we trust unin tentionally when it insinuates that we '"charge extravagance upon the people ojiht Territory. r We complain, . and justly we contend, of non-resident interfering specu- laiors who have never had aT permanent residence among us, nor think cf having. Just such men, Mr. Howard, as you mean when j'ou say,"A man from Louisiana or : Mississippi is appointed a'dfebursing agent -of some kind in the Territory, and in some way squanders the funds with which -he is entrusted, so that the end for which it was designed is not accomplished, and then goes home with a "fortune in his 'breeches pocket." .

Where four months; ego,-were but . four houses,' now' are twentyrcne neat frame buildings already, : and others going up in almost every di rection. We were informed that con tracts are now given out for the erection of fifty additional buildings, to be com pleted this season. Peru is situated di rectly on'the bank of the Missouri river, about half way between Brownville and . Nebraska City ; is surrounded by a heavy settled portion of the country, and cannot fail to make, in a very short while, a place of importance.- Its proprietors and in- . . habitants are. all men of untiring ind us try and perseverance.
