The following correspondence will show that the act of the last Legislature of th Territory, designating th County Commit sinners a the proper persons to enter Town Sites, is not recognized by the Commissioner of th Land Office. It is a question of doubt whether the Judges of Probate, or the United States Judges, can be regarded as "Judges of the County Court." A soon as that doubt is removed, notice wl.l be given. In the mean time no entering of town not incorporated can be made. A eopy cf the act of the last Legislating will be placed in the hands of th Commis sioner, and, under the circumstances, th en trie already made may be confirmed. ' JOHN A.
