-HNl ON TITLES. ~ .

MOO ON TlEk8S. Il.
With respect 10 the extent Of the property, il
may be difhcult in many cases, to ascertain Il
precisely. AZ In the case Of land conveyed, the
description Of it may refer to monuments, de-
stroyed or removed after the execution Of the
deed. Sometimes the deed may not be void for
uncertainty, and yet the imperfect and inarti6cial
description contained in it, may afford very little
assistance in determining the extent of the grant.
1t is oftentimes difficult to determine the guam
tity of estate in the land conveyed, as, whether
estate for life, in tail, or in fee, &C., has been
created or conveyed, especially, where the claim
is under will, or deed drawn by unskillful
persons, without regard to precedents. So some
times it is not easy to determine the quality Of
the estate, from the uncertainty of the law the
subject; as where an execution, in favor of two
or more creditors, 10 extended on land, it is un-
certain whether they hold as joint tenants or ten
ants in common, no case having been adiudged
on that point since the statute altering the law
with regard to joint tenants
man, intending to make disposition of his
property, having ascertained the extent of his
rights, should consider Of the species of convey
ance, and the manner Of conveying best adapted
to effect his particular intention, the operation of
the deed, and the quantity ofproperty affected by
it. For in some cases good title may be by ono
porting to effect the same purpose, nothing would
lawfully pass. As if tenant for life or years,
should attempt to convey land to another in fee,
by conveyance raising an use, or lease and re-
lease; what the grantor might lawfully convey,
would pass, but nothing more. But if he should
attempt to convey by feoffment, fne or recovery,
the estate for life or years would be forfeited the
reversioner or remainder man might enter imme-
diately, and the person, to whom It had been at
tempted to convey the land in fee, might recover
back the money paid for the purchase, if not
e6tOpped bV some net of hia own.

REAL ESTATE.

CONTINUED FROM NO. FOURTEEN.
On that portion of Fort street which after
crossing St. Anthony street at the Winslow House,
pursuing Southerly direction to Leech's addi-
ton, lots in the immediate neighborhood of the
Winslow House are valued at 300 per foot, de-
clining with the distance to $25 at the termina-
ton of the street the line of Leech's addition.
This street and its combinations, form an impor-
tant thoroughfare connecting the highways which
permeate the valley of the Minnesota, and the
broad and fertile regions to the south and west
with the commercial centre of the Territory.
One already sees in the rapid multiplication of
business fronts on the street, the evidence of
growing Importance in a business regard. Some
of our most elegant private residences are on
this street.
ably situated, the advantage lying in the nature
of the ground traversed. Oak street, indeed, is
not travelled at all, owing to the peculiar mobM-
ity of the constituent particles which character
Uses that sort of soil known as bog. But this is
a slight defect easily remedied by strong appli-
cation of Pats and spades-lots sell for 5000
$1,000 along its course.
Leech's addition, containing 40 acres, lies south
of Rice & Irvine's. Lots in the best situations
worth 5000 $76O-from $3.50 a 5000 is the
verage range Of prices. Leech's out lots occupy
ing like extent Of 40 acres contain each an area
of two acres and sell at the same rates per foot
quoted in Leech's addition.
Winslow's addition lies south of, and contigu-
Gus to the last two mentioned--$l50 to $3.50 will
comprise the whole variety of prices in this ad-
diton.
In Stimson, Brown Ramsey's addition, lots
are sold for 5000 to $500.
Their additions cover the narrow margin of level
land lying between the river bluffs on the east,
and the terminal slope of the higher lands at the
west. The gradual slope we have mentioned here
tofore, here swells out in bold and graceful out
lines, lending an air of Baronial stateliness to
the few handsome residences which are set upon
its ridge.

HoRNELLsvILLE BANk.-We mentioned few
days since the failure of N. B. Kidder, of Geneva,
with liabilities to the amount of $500, 900, From
the fact that he nearly sole owner of both the
cambridge Bank and the Bank of Hornellsville,
it was feared that both these Institutions would
hare to suspend. The drafts of the cambridge
Bank upon its correspondent in New York is dis
credited, but the circulating notes are amply Sc
cured, and will, we understand, still be redeemed
by the State Bank at Albany. The Hornellsville
Bank, will not, we hear, suspend. The notes of
redeemed by the Metropolitan Bank in New York.
The cambridge Bank had, ON the 30th Of Septem-
Der, circulation of 1913, l46, secured by $685.
New York State Stocks at par value. The Hor-
nellsville Bank had $50,O64 circulation, secured
by $3l 1913 State and $4,000 United States
Stocks at par value. The Bank of Monroe, at
Cuba, is also connected with the failures alluded
to. Its circulating notes are partly secured by
bonds and mortgages, which renders them less
safe than those of the Banks above named, but
they are yet taken at the Metropolitan Bank.

ca Under a very foolish rule established by
the agent Of the State of Indiana, that State,
with ample funds in his hands, has been placed
under protest in several instances in New York.
The agent declines to pay drafts of the Auditor
of Indiana for interest on registered bonds be-
longing to banks in that State, ON the plea that
the drafts should be for the entire amount of in
terest due that bank. In the cases alluded to,
the drafts were for amounts due on such bonds
as belonged to bankers at the west, who had sur
rendered circulating notes for them. 1t appears
to be simply an attempt to avoid the trouble of
paying several drafts instead of one, and FOR this
trivial the State is under protest, and the
drafts of the Auditor returned unpaid to the west
CO We regret to hear, of some large failures
in Pittsburgh. These are not confined to bank
ers, but have extended to some of the large iron
and glass houses, and general merchants.
GT The finances Of the State of Michigan
are in a most excellent condition.
The available means of the State is nearly
million of dollars, and her bonded debt only
about two and half millions.
The advance in the value of real estate, in the
commonwealth, has been very large, the past year.
Railroads have done wonders for Michigan-ad-
vancng her interests probably more-in the ratio
of population-than in any other State in the
Union, and next to her-Indiana.

pool circular of the exports from that city to the
United States, from LIST of November to 18th De-

c. The ice broke up at st. Louis on the 5th
inst, several steamboats, were severely damaged
in the grand emeute Of the icy masses. One boat
was sunk, some were torn from their moorings.
The same disasters occurred last spring, as our
readers will recollect, on the breaking up of the
ice at st. Louis.

Most kinds of goods, in the New York market
are ruling low /; and the trading jobbing houses,

cally examine q mans worthiness for cre1it-as
compared with his standing, IL months ago.
We hear, to-day, of one case of arrangement,
caused by the delay in the mails.
CO We stated with much satisfaction some
days ago, that measures were being taken for the
speedy resumption of payment BY Messrs. Page
Bacon. The day was not then appointed, but
we have it now officially that on the 18th inst.
that house will be prepared to pay on demand any
claim which may be made upon it. This resump-
ton has been brought about BY the liberal friend
ship of o number of gentlemen, mostly of this
city, who have come forward and made that house
loan, upon such securities as it had to offer, to
an extent fully sufficient to meet the demands
which might be made upon it upon resumption of
morrow for St. Louis, with funds in hand to the
the extent Of about $3.50, 900 including draft on
st. Louis Sub-Treasury for $500, 900. The entire
amount OF aid promised to Mr.. Bacon we have
heard stated as high as 81. 100000, if 80 much
should be needed. As the balance due Messrs.
Duncan Il Sherman, has been arranged BY ex-
tension, the above amount, we have from the best
authority, is sufficient to sustain Messrs Page &
Bacon even if they should be called upon at once
topay every outstanding claim upon them.
The resumption Of this house will be hailed
with Joy in st. Louis, where few men have a lar.
ger circle Of devoted friends, than Henry ID. Ba-

FURTHER BANK EXCITEMENT AT VERSAILLES
The people of Versailles, Woodford Coz are
determined to abide by the resolves they made at
public meeting on the 9th ult., with reference
to the conduct Of Mr.. Barclay, banker of Lex

branch of the Commercial Bank.
Last Saturday, a messenger from Messrs. Til
ford s Barclay, of Lexington, arrived in Lexing

Bank paper, designing to draw the specie for the
same. He was frustrated in his purpose however,

REAL ESTATE REVIEW.

But little is doing in city property. There have
been some transactions in wild lands, nearly al
ways in remote sections indicating that specu-
lation is fast extending its boundaries.
The surveyed government lands are rapidly
passing into private hands. Ramsey county is
almost all appropriated-a few sections in town
remain in this county. The land Offices are still
doing good business, but the entries are nearly
confined to Washington Co. The wooded re-
gions of the st. Croix here offer tempting re-
ward to the far reaching cupidity of the specula-
tor. Let the man of small means, tied like Pro-
metheus, to the barren rocks of New England,
with an eternal penury gnawing at their hearts !;
let the thousands toling for starving pittance in
the dirty drudgery of cities come here quickly,
the sooner the better-anticipate the grasping
avarice of the speculator, and take possession of
this Canaan-rough, hard-fsted, sturdy men of
muscle longing to leave an inheritance for your
children, but without capacity to rob mail, or
fnanceering skill to issue bogus certificates of
stock-thesela lakes and hills and woods were Civ
en- to you from the beginning, by God Almighty
by Warranty Deed, sealed with his seal of the
Day Star.
