A MIsrAKE.-The Times, of yesterday
prefaces al article which it publishes eutitled
"Garrets," with the announcement that il
is from the pen of Ike Marrd alias DoNALr
JUDsoN. In the real name of the author
we think that paper is mistaken. His name
is DONALD G. MITCHELL, formerly our Con
sui to Venice, but which Office he has some
time since resigned. Since his resignation
he has resided in Paris, engaged upon a
a." History of Venice" which will be shortly
given to the public and which, no doubt
like those Of his writings which have pre-
coded it, will be read with avidity. BY the
way, we advise those who have not read his
Reveries of Bachelor" and Dream
Land" to procure them Immediately, prom.
ising them that the perusal of these works
will amply repay.them. Mr.. MITCHELL has
an honored place among the most graceful,
piquant and interesting writer's Of our coun-
try. MAY his shadow never be less.n

The following card from WIN. Foster
Esq, tells its own story so f lily that it needs
no preface. 1t effectually does away with
one of the lies which formed the staple
Of the speeches at the Saint Anthony
" Indignation" meeting, a few days since:
ST.. PAUL, March 9, 1855.
EDITOR OF PIONEER I'm the Minnesottan
of yesterday, correspondent, in reporting the
proceedings Of meeting held at St. Anthony
on the 9TH inst, in reference to Governor Cor
MANS refusing to sign certain bills on the last
night Of the session, quotes the Hon. G. T.
SrEARNs as follows -
"The Governor said that il the tenth section wat
stricken he would sign 1t Qhe bill which proved &c
have been altered In the tenth secticn) Mr.. Brown
got il through the Council agreeable to the wish Of the
Governor, but, In the meantime Gov German spoke In
a low tone of voice to Mr. Foster and requested him
(Foster) 60 up and tell his (he Governors) friends
to vote against the joint resolution that he had
ted Joseph Brown to draw striking out the tenth
section Of the bill which said to be altered.''
I suppose am the Mr.. FOSTER allnded to-
as was the only one Of that name in the Elk
ecutive Chamber during that evening and ]
have only to say that the foregoing statement
made by Mr.. SrEARNs, is unquali6edly false
Gov. GoRMAN had no such conversation with

Important ise-;mprOvement o.
the Minnesota River.

During the last session of the Legisla-
ture, bill passed the two Houses Of the
Legislature, and became law, providing
for the improvement of the Minnesota riv-
err The act Incorporates Company, with
power to construct dam across the Otter
Tail Lake, or upper Red River, below the
mouth of the Sioux Wood River, for the
purpose Of turning the entire current of the
Otter Tail into the Lac Traverse, through
the Sioux Wood River, which is a deep
canal cut by nature through aperfectly lev
ell prairie, and is the outlet Of Lac Traverse
There is scarcely foot fall in the whole
distance between Lac Traverse and the
junction of Sioux Wood River with the o.
ter Tail Consequently, a head of some
four feet. obtained by dam across the o.
ter Tail. it is supposed will be amply suf6-
Gent to cause an entire change in.the course
. Of the water of the Otter Tail River, d.
recting its current into Lac Traverse, in
stead of permitting it to flow down the
channel of the Red River toward Hudson's
Bay. Lac Traverse approaches to within
about one half mile of the channel of the
Minnesota, some five miles above Big
Stone Lake. Here it is proposed to cut q
canal which shall divert the water from
Lac Traverse into the Minnesota. This is
regarded as entirely feasible, as the canal
need not be more than six feet deep, through
. soft alluvial soil.
1t is estimated that tie quantity Of water
which will be obtained by the proposed i'm.
provement, will be quarter more than that
now flowing down the Minnesota at and
above Fort Rtdgley; and, it is believed, will
be sufficient to permit the free navigation
Of the Minnesota, at all times, by light
draught steamers, as high up as the Sioux
Agency. With this increase of water in
the river, triaiug outlay Of money will
make the rapids navigable; and then tue
Minnesota valley can be penetrated 10y
steamboats, at all seasons of the year, when
the river is free from ice. through the Gu
tire portion open to settlement.
Important as this improvement will be to
the navigation of the Minnesota river, when
completed, still more important result to
the valley of the Minnesota is contemplated
by the projectors of this enterprise 1t is
well known that Otter Tail Lake is sur
rounded by heavy growth of white pine
and that the tributaries to the outlet OF
that lake flow through dense pine forests.
This improvement, by turning the water of
the Otter Tail in the Minnesota, will afford
the means Of floating pine logs from the
pineries on the Otter Tail and its tributaries
to any point on the Minnesota river, which
heretofore could only be obtained at a heavy
expense Of transportation from the mills on
the Mississippi.
The profits the company expect to real
ize from the improvement are comprised in
. toll to be levied on all freight, logs, &C.,
passing through the canal connecting Lac
Traverse with the Minnesota river. This
will, in q few years, afford large income,
f lumber can be obtained through that
:hannel. The charter is perpetual, but
mar be altered or repealed after the expi-
Iaiop Of eighteen years We understand
The daily Minnesota pioneer. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1854-1855, 1855-03-10

that preliminary survey of the contempla-
ted works win be made in May next, and
the works completed during the ensuing
summer. The expense Of the dam, and the
excavation of the canal sufficiently wide to
admit Of floating saw logs, is estimated at
from eight to ten thousand dollars. The
toll authorised is ten cents per thousand feet
Of logs; therefore the toll on ten millions
feet Of logs will cover the construction Of
the works That amount Of lumber would
not supply the demand in the Minnesota
valley for one year.
If this enterprise proves to be success III.
it will be of great benefit to the valley Of
the Minnesota. and contribute very much
toward increasing the already rapid settle
ment Of that rich and fertile region Of oul
Territory, while it promises to become high
ly profitable to those who may engage ii
it.
The bill Incorporating this company wa
introduced by the Hon. j.. R Brown, o.
the Council, to whom We are indebted fol
the greater portion Of the facts and conclu
sions herein presented. Mr.. B. he's resided
several years at Lac Traverse, is well &C
