For the M.nnesotian,

SAINT lACI, sept is, lSJ4.
MEssRs. EDIrORs II have this day opened
and read eleven letters from as many individ-
uals, making inquiries respecting Minnesota,
its climate, soil, products, seasons, business.
&c. &c. In some of the letters there are in
terrogatories enough to fill sheet of foolscap.
and each ofthe writers ask for Immediate an
swers; but as have not time to answer them
Individually, l propose, you please, to say a
few things to them through our paper, sending
each of them copy, hoping they may conclude
it will be to their interest to take some one of
the papers published in Saint Paul from which
they may gather all the information they de-
sire.
No doubt they think we shall esteem it a
privilege to give the desired information re-
specting this great Northwest, and so we
should, if people would ouIy hear and read
when we speak and write. But they think it is
so far North, and so far out of the world that it
cannot be possible for Our farmers to grow
grain or our gardeners vegetables but in this
you know they arc greatly mistaken. Why sir
some of these writer's ask wncre St. Paul is To-
Gated? whether it is on the Mississippi and
whether it is above or below the Falls of ST.
Anthony. But now for a few general an
swcrs.
Minnesota is about four times the size of the
State of Ohio-comprsing an area of 1G6, 600
square miles or log, 900, 900 acres of land, the
most of which is fine rolling prairies of rich
soil. a sandy loan, adapted to the short sum-
mers of the climate. The country so far as we
have seen, abOunds with creeks and streams of
fresh water, abounding with spcckled trout, as
well as beautiful lakes well stocked with the
finest OF fish.
St. Paul is in latitude 44e As min. longitude
9S', A min. and is said to pc near the geograpii-
cal centre of the continent Of North America
1t occupies one of the most beautiful and COM
mandiDg points on the Upper Mississippi. As
to the climate it is bracing and invigorating.
True, sometimes the mercury runs down TO
congealng, but then there is quite difference
between the atmosphere of Minnesota and that
of some portions of the States. Here the air is
remarkably fine, pure. pleasing and hcalthful--
free from humidity and charged with electric
ity. AS it regards the products of the coun-
try, our farmers can raise OATS wheat. corn and
vegetables of all kinds.as good and pleantifully
as in any part of this Union. We fed as good
corn last winter as we ever fed in Illinois.
Labor of every kind is in good demand
But if the immgran should not find immediate
employment, he can make himselfa claim. put
up shanty, break few acres, put in his crops
and thus at once raise his own provisions
Much more could be said, but will conclude
by Recommending those individuals to come
and see for themselves.
Yours &C..
DAVID BROOKS.
