The following correspondence will show that the act of the last Legislature of the Territory, designating the County Commis sioners aa the proper persons to enter Town Sites, is not recognized by the Commissioner of the Land Ollice. It Is a question of doubt whether the Judges of Probate, or the United States Judges, can be regarded aa "Judges of the County Court." Aa soon as that doubt is removed, notice wl.l be given. In the mean time no entering of towns not Incorporated ran be made. A copy of the net of the last Legixlatuie will be placed In the hands of the Commis sioner, and, under the circumstances, the en tries already made may be confirmed. JOHN A. PARKER, Register.

Under the "act of twenty-third May, 1814," the "Judges of the County Court" are given the authority to enter "Town Sites." In this Territory there are no such officers as "Judges of the County Court," but the Legislature has recognized the "County Commissioners" as the proper persons to enter "Town Sites," and ws nave, in view of the spirit of the law, permitted such entries, in the hope that it will meet the approbation of the Department.
