I present a communication from the Commissioner of the Agricultural Department at Washington, asking that you will appoint delegates to conventions called by him to sit at his office in the last week of January next. The conventions which will most nearly concern this institution are those which will consider the needs of the agricultural colleges, and of the stock-growing interests. All of which is respectfully submitted. SELIM H. PEABODY, Regent. Mr. Millard moved that the tyds on Nebraska lands be now opened before the bidders present. Carried.
