Letters Of instruction are received by the Post
masters at Galena and Saint Paul, from the p.
NJ General, to make up mails at each place, for

Of time now by sending mails through Prairie du
Chen; aud our mails win also be more frequent.

| Rumors from above say that the St. Peters river
is ten feet higher than il has been known for many
years. There is much apprehension that the Mis-
sissipp will be higher this season than it has been
in the memory Of N n. If SO, the destruction Of
property is not yet complete, and it may be well
to prepare for the wcrst.-t Dubuque Her. 20
1t is not true that the Minnesota river est. Pc
tiers higher, OF as high it was last year. The
Mississippi is not as high at st. Paul by several
feet as it was last year.
How does It heppen that the administrations
Wing or Democratic, all the same, uniformly
hat can be found any where uasentenced, for the
office of Secretary Of Territory! 1t is simply
because these expert old rogues, having in
stinctive perception that it is good Office to

The Democrat quotes the Pioneer Of August
9Th, 1880. in approval of parties. wherein we say
that without political parties, we have personal
paIties.'' This is true, neishbor. every syllable
Of it. We tried it on here, faithfully, and found
another thing true, viz: that tci political parties
we have personal parties, fighting under poiiti-
cal masks. This is true-strictly true, in Mime
sofa, Mr.. Democrat; and smarter men than you
have tried TO prevent it. Our neighbours Democ-
! raey is the Rice Democracy, and he knows it,
1t is like our town Board, or like a slab, sspretty
much all on one side.''
The way the Rice party invite Mr.. Sibley into
their present organization, as they call it, is to sci
another dead-fall, walk into it, invite Mr. Sibley
and his friends in, and if they find them too many
then to escape and knock out the figure 4 that

The Rice gang have trumped up wretched
pettfogging prosecution, against the purchasers Of
the Kittson property, at the east end of the town
for three purposes, viz: to malign Mr.. Kttson, to
finjure those who purchased Of him, and 10 pre-
Attorneys who will prostitute their profession tc
such vie purposes, ought to practice upon each
