NertA-Eastern Alinnesesa.

In the heat of the Railroad discussion last
summer. we stated that there were points on
the North Eastern shore of St. Louis Bay in
Minnesota Territory. equally as good for q
town site as the one on which the present site
ofSuperiOr in Wisconsin, is bhilt. We were
informed by Col. Robertson, who has large in
terest in said city in Wisconsin. and the Min
nesotian, the organ of Wall.street capitalists
and Spectators. that such was not the case
that no other point except that of Superior City
in Wisconsin, was accessible-that the point
was Superior city and no where else.- Times.
Without wishing to provoke new and fruit
less controversy upon question which was
definitely settled some months ago, so far as the
people of Minnesota can settle it, either now
or in all time to come, we would respectfully
request of The editor OF the Times that be make
good his above assertion by prooffrom the files
of the Minnesotian, or else acknowledge that
he has placed our Journal in false position.
Whatever may have been. or is now, Col. Rob
ertson's position in the premises. we are quite
certain the Minnesotian never took any such
ground as is here attributed to it.
The charter that we sustained at the time of
its passage, and still sustain. provides for the
terminus of the road in .Minnesota, on the
north shore of the bay fist. Louis, opposite
the mouth of Left Hand river"

SOMETHING NEw.-Third street was yesterday
the scene of considerable excitement, created
by the appearance Of an "orsan grinder" and
monkey-both of whom. We are happy to state.
in good health; the monkey retaining all the
vivacity that characterizes that quadruped
in his native groves. and dancing to the tunes
generally used upon such occasions. F. r the
proprietor of this institution" we are not yet
in possession of any recommendations. TIE
monkey evidently is possessed of Lofty aspira.
tions, as a portion of his programme consisted
in climbing from the sidewalk into the second
story of the Mnnesotian Building, the crowd
in the meantime becoming fully convinced Of
q great and poetical Il nth in Natural History.
ssThe higher up monkey climbs,
The he shows hist i!'
In his descent earthward he alighted upoL the
head of a bystandcr, took off his Panama, and
commenced hunt on his Uranium after ideas
or. perhaps. something more palatable to his
appetite. AS he commenced his journey up the
street, followed by crowd of juvenile admi.
rers. our heart was gladdened with the thought
that another evidence of advancing civilization
was visible to the public eye.

FINANCIAL AND CONNER GAL.


TUESDAY, Sept. ll--G p NJ.
There was a heavy market this morning. Stocks
were offered in large quantities, and buyers were
scarce Reading sold TO the greatest extent. All the
second and third class of Western railroad stocks
dull and neglected at the decline. Galena and
Chicago was held at lls; offers Of lie. 1851 were
made without finding sellers. Chicago and Rock
Island steady at the advance reported yesterday
State stocks we're little more active than we have
reported for some days past Railroad bonds were not
in demand at all this morning. The entire sales
were under twenty thousand dollars. Indiana IS de-
clincd per cent Missouri 6s, /; Cumberland, /;
Cleveland ard Toledo, Il Erie RR-, d Reading RR., l.
There was little tightness in the money market
to-day We should not be surprised to see any day
pretty sharp turn in the that would require
sharp shining among stock spectators who have
large call loans hanging over them.
At the second board Nicaragua Transit was bet
ter. All other stocks of which there were sales
were without change or lower. Illinois Central
bonds fell Oh per cent; Reading Railroad, j. Cleve
land and Toledo, !. Nicaragua Transit advanced
per cent. All the difficulties between the Nicaragua
Transit and the Pacific Mail Steamship Company
were settled to day. The amaigamation has ut last
been accomplished. Spectators have for some time
past been buying the Transit stock, with the ex-
pectaton Of realizing handsome profit as as
the arrangement with the Pacific Company was
made. 1t is impression tina. If these purchasers
do not sell at their calculations will disappear
in smoke. We know that soae Of the oldest and
largest holders have been gradually reducing their
supplies. The Nicaragua Company is q very pro6ta-
BILE concern to its officers, agents, and employees
generally, but stockholders have rather poor look
for profits. The stock is not werth az much with
the amaigamation as without. The company Is
falling into bad hands. All the best men in the
management are silently slipping out. When they
leave il the stockholders will g very little Of its
profits.
The Ass istant Treasurer reports to-day as fol
