From the st. Louis Republican.
MINNESOTA.

MEssRs. ED1roRs: Gentlemsn-Du-
ring sojourn of a few days in your
pleasant and prosperous city, have been
several times surprised at the ignorance
existing among emigrating parties which
have met, as well as citizens of St.
Louis, in regard to my place of residence
the beautiful and inviting land of Min
nesota. l wish to say only word or
two, at this time:
lst. Snow and frost have not been
seen about St. Paul and vicinity, this
spring, since they disappeared at other
points above the Lower Rapids.
I'd. We have not had more rigid win
ter in Minnesota than at other much low
err points in this valley, Judging from the
thickness of the ice which l see carried
about for sale.
Sd. The reason our navigation was so
late opening this spring, was on account
of the ice in Lake Pepin, which those ac-
quainted with geography will recollect is
widening of the river far up in Minnesota.
Navigation below the lake was open as
soon as at Galena.
4th. The country is rapidly filling up
with good population. The land is of
the first quality, and plenty to be had at
Government prices. Markets for pro-
duce always high, occasioned by the de-
mand of the numerous lumbermen and
annuity receiving Indians.
9th. Steamboats, will arrive at st. Paul
daily, during the season. St. Paul is the
place to go to. "&. Peters," which YOU
see stuck up on steamboat signs and adj
vertisements, has no existence-there is
no such place. This name, which was
formerly applied to the Minnesota river,
has been abolished by official act.
MINNESOTIAN."
The weekly Minnesotian. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. Territory) 1852-1858, 1852-05-08

THE ANNIvERsAR1Es IN New YORK.
The large religious and benevolent socie-
ties are making arrangements for the Gel
ebration of their anniversaries, now near
at hand. The past year has been one of
prosperity with them, and the principal
institutions, including the Bible, Tract,
and Home Missionary Societies, have in
creased their RECEIPTS as compared with
the previous year, when they amounted to
about 81 100000. 1t is believed that the
income of receipts will fully sustain the
ratio of preceding years. An unusual
number of returned foreign missionaries
will be present.
Greeley, in late article says, that 'sof
the two great parties, the Wing is the
more likely to be strong where God is
reverenced and grog-shops are scarce"
The weekly Minnesotian. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. Territory) 1852-1858, 1852-05-08

as to be acceptable to all branches of the
Wing party. All this ridiculous muss"
kicked up by Humphrey Marshall & Co.,
at the Wing caucus, don't amount to any
thing worth fretting about. So far as
have reen, not single Wing Journal in
the slave States justifes their course
The Wing press of this city, you will no
tice, is hard down upon them. So are
the Wing papers of Tennessee and Ken
lucky. Scott will be nominated with
greater unanimity, owing to this very
