The "Song OF the North Wind" on
our fourth page, we regard as the most
spirited lyric we have met with since the
publication Of Cutters "Song of Steam;''
although it is destitute of that degree of
inspired imagination, and other requisites
essential to true poetry, which character
ize the latter production.
An aged Englishman, who lived alone
in the neighborhood of White Bear Lake,
was found dead in his shanty on Thurs
day. He moved thither some time last
summer, and seemed DESTROYS of avoiding
intercourse with his fellow-men. We
have not learned his name. None of the
neighbors knew of his being ill, or that he
suffered sickness at all, or by what means
he came 10 his death. Coroner Reed sum-
moned jury and went out to hold an in
quest yesterday morning.
Information has reached here, based up
on statement of distinguished Senator
who is member of the Judiciary Com
mittee, that the committee have unani-
mously agreed to report in favor of sus-
tanning the President in his removal of
Judge Goodrich, and will therefore report
in favor of the confirmation of Judge Full
Ter. BY an act just passed by our Legis-
lature, Judge Cooper is assigned to the
Pembina district, and Chief Justice Full
ler's district comprises Ramsey, Wash
ington and Chisago counties, while the
man of leather is still confined within the
limits Of the UNITED States of America,
Benton district" 1t is great pity that
friend Murray's bill "to clean him OUT"
which was before the House few days
since, had not been memorial addressed
to the President instead. and slightly mod
flied as to the name Of the individual to be
q cleaned OUT
1t will be seen that steps are taking TO
establish first class female Seminary in
st. Paul. A meeting to that end was held
at the Office of the Minnesota Outfit on
Monday evening last, the proceeding, of
which will be found in this paper. A
board Of Trustees, composed of portion
of the most staunch and energetic friends
of education in the Territory, was chosen.
We have no doubt, from the character of
the Board, that this essential and laudable
enterprise will be entirely successful.
The recent death of the mother of the
editor Of the Democrat is announced in
the last issue of that journal. We trust
that our heart will never become so scar
ed by the whitening, scorching fires Of
party maevo!cnce, that we cannot deeply
sympalhise with brother editor, or any
opponent, who suffers under such irving
affliction. We arc not, at all events, vet
so hopelessly lost TO the better feelings of
humanity. We too have an aged mother ;
and would not be astonished that any mail
which works its wearisome winter way
to this frontier land, should bring us in
telligence of blow equally stunning
Does it not often occur to the reader. that
the arrival Of a mail is an epoch of great
and fearful moment to many an isol ,ted
heart? And how varied the sensations
produced in different breasts, when the
doors of the post-oflice open and we re-
ceive our letters!

We haze both-our ncighbor had the
first; and late arrival brought sadness
and mourning to to his home, while to us
it conveyed intelligence Of the most robust,
and blooming health of our little playmate
of last year-all the treasure God has left
us of the large store we then possessed.
And yet the great world moves on-on-
Duzzing ana lying TO the fast approaching
end of its journey, regarding no more the
feelings and sensations thus produced in
the hearts of mere individual passengers
upon the voyage, than do the whirlins,
impatient wheels of the locomotive, as thew
thunder over the iron track, conveying to
their destination, side by side. these mis-
sives of sorrow and gladncss-or bitter
woe and buoyant joy. "Such is life.'
