Land Claims in California—Settlers vs. Speculators. There was a discussion in the Senate, yesterday, be- tween the two Senators from California—Mesers, Gwin and Weller—on a subject that will occupy a large space in the future legislation of Congress, and probably on the fate of public men in California and other portions of the Union. This question is, the contest that is just com- mencigg in California between the settlers and large land cai ts in that State. Mr. Gwin, some months since, introduced a bill giving a very small fraction of land to the actual settlers, on these land claims, who settled be- fore the passage of the law for their examination, and who bave remained upon these settlements and cultivated the land. giving the land claimant the same quantity of unoccupied public land in other portions of the State. ‘This was giving these settlers some of the benefits of the donation bill he bud introduced—giving each settler on the public land one hundred and sixty acres. When the knowledge of this Lill reached California, it was ferociously attacked by the land claimants and the newspapers in their interest, and all sorts of abuse heaped upon Mr, Gwin for introducing it. He was called arobber. and other choice epithets were heaped upon him. There attacks have called out the Senator in his defexce, and were the occasion of his speech yesterday. It was listexed to with great attention in the Senate, for Mr Gwin has a commanding influence in that body in all mensures connected with the State he represents He evidently had considered his subject well, and took bis position deliberately. Although he spoke to the bill under consideration, which I have etated above, yet there was no mistsking the contest he had determined to enter into with the holders of large incomplete land cisims in California, when they came in contact with ectual settlers and cultivators of the soil, He referred to the pre-emption bill that he had passed through the ite, and which would undoubtedly become # law. giving the right of pre-emption to every settler on the pullic éomain in California. whether surveyed or unsur- veyed—to the one hundred and sixty acres he occupied anid cultivated, or may hereafter occupy and culti- vate, This, he contended, gave every settler a right of property’ to the soil he occupied and cultivated. if the ie to that soil was in the United States. He then procecicd to exatnine these large land claims, and showed feom numerous decisions to which he referred, rend. that the title in fee of all the land covered by in- choute and incomplete claims in California, was in the U. States. and therefore the granting pre-emption: periicn of the public do: hough a case was decided under the law of 1861. the lands ns covered Were reserved from pre-emptions,) conveyed wtitle to the settlers which they could maintain in the courts of the country. If bis law is right. which he did not read, but wil publish with his speech, his conclusions are invesistiblo; and if the preemption law passes the liouse of Representatives, as it passed the Senat settler in California is protected by it against a writ of Jectwent in the land he occupies; for it is not contended that the great mass of Jand claims there are perfect titles Mr Gwin. as he progressed in his argument, showed great nec in his position. and denounced the specula- tors in the great land claims in unmeasured terms He ed the attacks upon him with great scora, and well smigbt. if be is backed by the settlers in his State. He oduced geome ctrious and startling statistics in regard to the Mexican population of California, and contended that it was incredible to suppose that such vast quanti lies of land would have been granted to so few people He was replied to by Mr. Weller, in a short speeea, who took ground for the large claims, and contended that they should be confirmed. even if incomplete, to the full e tent of land claitas honest in th ; He approached the sub y. with the skill of an experienced tactician, red to his course while in Congress from Ohio, torhow he was the friend of the settlers ; but co ed that the government was bound to coniirm tl complete grants in California, “He that he was compelled to differ wi assiduity in advancing the int constituents he acknowi Mr. Gwin replied, b age, whose common gel iy restated his position. and ex- prersed his readiness to meet bis colle nm he hould give his views in fall to the ate. He said the claimants in California were protected elaims only could be acted on by the Board of Com ners, aud the political power of this government could confirm the equities of such claims in whole or in part—that the settlers had equities that could and would be protected by the government. ¢ subject passed ove ap again, In the meantime. members of Congress are flooded with attacks on Senator Gwin and _ his bill, and let e ming the prote ‘The most legal rights of 1 by treaty : that incom ¢ e claim resist them to thi T have been ret orfare of the warnings given in the Hreann, about two yerrs ago, of the charges of fraud against these claims, and the caution in le Iam struck with the necessity of Congress proceeding with great slating about land matters in California, wisdom of the precaution Cur Mantanzas Correspondence.

This Board convened at six o'clock last evening, pur- sunnt to adjournment, the President, Jonathan Trotter, Kisq.. in the chair, The time of the meeting was mainly oceupied in voting An ordinance was reported from a committee of the Hoard. in relation to the per centage to be allowed to the acscseore. According to this ordinance the assessors are ‘o reevive 134 per cent. on the whole amount assessed ; the collector 1s per cent.; the deputy collector 114 per cent. This ordinance was proposed as a substitute to that from the Board of Aldermen. which gave 1\¢ per cent to the aseessors. and 145 per cent to the collectors. Assistant Alderman Woonwann opposed its adoption, on the ground that it increased the amount. Assistant Alderman Bovron said that instead of in- creasing, it reduced the present fees of the assessors from 234 per cent., and of the collectors from 3 per cent . to the amount stated. The collector, said he, is required to give $30 000 seourity, in real estate bonds, andthe deputy collectors $10.000 each, also in real estate bonds, for the faithful performance of their duties. The reported amounts Will not give to the assessors and collectors over $1,200 a year for their services, out of which they have to employ their own clerks, Se on the adoption of the ordinance was put and carried. ‘The Board adjourned till six o'clock this afternoon.
