Minnesota Legislature.

This body completed its business and adjourn
ed sine die, at an early hour last Saturday even

tests at the early part Of the session, the last
month was devoted, with energy on the part of
all the members, to completing, as tremendously
as possible, the business before them. Some of
the measures which received their attention,
and finally the legal sanction, will have an i'm
portant bearing upon the future destines of the
Territory.

the session, were of the most friendly charac-
ter, and their separation from us, incident to
