A Runaway Team.

A Runaway Team.
Last Friday morning, fine spirited
span Of horses, attached to a sleigh, be-
ing left united in Third street, corner Of
Roberts street, near the Governors resi-
dence, got frightened, and ran down
Third street, miraculously threading
their way through the multitude of teams,
and foot passengers and boxes and bales,
with which that narrow street is perhaps
more crowded than any other street in
st. Paul; then turning at a right angle
into Jackson street, narrowly escaping
being wrecked against the Post Office,
off they scampered over the bridge,
across Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and in.
to Seventh street, up Seventh street
above the new Methodist church, into
Vine street, up Vine street to Exchange
street, and down Exchange street, across
State, Pearl, Main, st. Anthony, Eagle,
Chestnut, Walnut, Pine and Elm, down
Elm street to Spring street, down Spring
street to Olive, up Olive street to Hill
street, down Hill street across Market,
to Bench street, and down Bench street
by the Fremont House, the Central
House and the Capitol, to the end of
Bench street.-the jumping off place, at
the corner where Douglass mixes excel
lent whiskey punches.
Locomotive Ice TRAINs.-Thc Min
ncsotians, it appears, do not intend to be
entirely cut eff from the balance Of the
world the coming winter Two trains,
each with ten cars, besides the locomo-
tive and tender, are advertised to ply
between Galena and St. Paul, as soon
as the ice shall form in the mississippi
of sufficient strength 10 render it safe
travelling upon it. Ample arrange
ments are to be made for boarding and
lodging passengers. 1t is to be hoped
this novel enterprise may prove sue
CCSSiUl, ana we sec no reason why II
should not, if Old Father Of Waters
will permit the rails TO remain undisturb-
ed.-Ind. american.
The unusual openness Of the wintei
thus far, has of course delayed the a.
bove important enterprise; but VIC arc
happy to inform the public, that the
thing is now fairly in motion. Before
Christmas, the "steam will be up" ant
half Of Galena will be con train.
They will find ample arrangements made
for their comfort, at our public houses
