figures made by hand, closed by large brass
clasps, and twelve by twenty inches in length

lished in the Holland language, and contains
maps of oil the principal Places spoken Of in
Holy Writ, with engravings of SoIomon's
Temple and other celebrated places and
scenes. The Typography is excellent, and
the binding is the most substantial we ever
saw. The paper is Of an inferior appearance,
but strong and lasting. 1t is quite curios-

weighs nearly % pounds. 1t was presented
to MIR. Vanderpoel By Capt. AppIeby one of

from a Holland family some years ago. 1t is

THE DOG AND THE MEAT.

&c.
The st. Anthony Express just at this time, re-
sembles the dog barking furiously at the meat
over its head, held by its new master, who seems
to take delight in listening to the tones of his ia
vorite. 1t evidently has been promised big
slice, if barks loud and strong, and its first efforts
speak well for what it may do hereafter. But
Mr.. Express, don't get into an excitement. Don't
run mad, or you may bite some one, and if you
should, it would be sure death. .-,.
The TINES does not conclude ssthat because the
Legislature did not passively acquesce in the
Governors veto, minnesota is the most corrupt
place on Gods EARTH" But the TINES said that
the whole action Of the Legislature and the Railroad
Company, with their money and other appliances
of evil, would lead people abroad to believe that
Minnesota sswas ore of the most corrupt places
on Gods carth.'
The TINES opposed the whole action of the
members of the Legislature on the Railroad mat
ter, because it has no confidence in the Company,
and it believes now that the amen iments tackled
on to the end of the Charter, are not worth the
snap of the fnger-that the company will evade
everything done by the Legislature and become
a curse rather than blessing to the Territory.
1t has seen enough of this Railroad company, and
those who have the management of it, to satisfy it.
self that Minnesota will be better off without any
railroad, than with one, under the guidance of
such men. Thus believing, it has raised its voice
against it, and shall do so again. So bark on,
Mr.. Express, we like the ring Of your voice. AS
general thing, you are pretty clever, but like
poor Tray, VIC fear you are now in bad company.
Bark on!

II RESERVE LANDs--The Reserve Presumption
Bill had not up to the 10th inst, passed the Sen
ate. The probability of its becoming q law has
occasioned great deal of excitement, both among
the settlers on the old Reserve Lands and those
who are anxious to become such. Such jumping
of claims, such hunting for lumber, such hurrying
of teams, such diligent watching by night and by
day, is extraordinary, even in this land grasping
community. We hear Of one man being shot in
the legs while attempting to establish himself on
claim. Then we hear of another claimant having his
shanty burnt down, filed with grain then We hear
it is no such thing. We hear Of property changing
hands, with unrefusal facility; Of inquistoral in.
genuity; of express messages to absent claimants
making great sacrifices to favor each other, of
desperate resorts to procure lumber wherewith
to build shanies of great satisfaction, and great
dissatisfaction. One man--Mr. C. Hoag--who
has held quiet possession Of. his claim for more
than two years and has expended $l,40O in i'm
provements, finds part of what he had come to
regard as his own premises, in possession of an
other. Here, there, and in another place, the act
which was intended to be just and bene6cent, seems
likely to furnish occasion for chickering's and heart
u1nqings, for neighborhood grudgesand vexatious
lawsuits. And all for a patch of dirt. Alas
for poor selfish, scrambling men st. anthony

The fire on Saturday evening last, is another
warning to our citizens, which, if not needed,
may cost them dearly. Had the flames reached
the American House, thousands of dollars worth
of property would have been destroyed, and many
persons doubtless made to suffer. 1t is the srang-
est thing to us, that the people of this city, with
all their intelligence and enterprise, and with all
their liberalty, should be SO backward in the for
nation of Fire Department. The TINES has
spoken Of this matter SO often, and urged immc-
date action often, that it seems perfectly use
less to say any thing further on the subject. 1t
is true, Hook and Ladder Company has been
formed, but of what use is it, The citizens will
not contribute sufficiently even to purchase the
necessary apparatus, and although there are q
host of young men, ready and willing to man the
ropes, yet they can do nothing becsuse they have
not the means. As shameful a. this Is, it is
nevertheless true, and the fact is no credit to the
city or the citizens. We hope property holders
will see the immediate necessity Of doing some
thing towards forming an Efficient Fire Depart
ment. Delays are dangerous.

Late Eurspsan News-Defsas q Me Brisish MIN
issry-Ns prospects Of Peace.
BY tho arrival of the Asia, VIC learn that the
British Ministry have been defeated by majority
Of Isl. It seems that they did not act energetic
ally, but by various illtimcd movements, lost the
confidence Of the people: A loud clamor was
faised against them, and they were finally obliged
70 withdraw. Their oonduction of affairs in the
Crimea ishighly censurcd: and but few, if any re-
gret their retiracy to private life. While the En-
glish soldiery were enduring all the horrors OF
want and starvation, Ministry were wasting their
time in foolish debates. Lord Derby had been
invited to form new Ministry, but up to the time
OF the sailing OF the ASIA he had been unsuccess-
full "a. - s.c
Prussia still maintains her position in siding
for Russia, and that position has been endorsed
by the German States. Austria and France be-
came somewhat excited at the course pursued by
Prussia, and angry notes have passed between the
two latter and the former power. 1t is reason
able to suppose that the Gear has had finger in
this matter, and that his enemies have been COM
pletely out-generaled in Diplomacy. ,'
No new movements have taken place in the Cri-
mea. No battles. Preparations are being made
for THO spring campaign, which smack more OF
war than of peace. There is but little doubt but
Prussia will unite with Russia against the COM
bined forces of the allied army, and inasmuch as
her troops have been placed on war footing, and
the French troops a.e forbidden to march through
her territory, there i, every reason to believe that
the spring will open with renewed hostilities and
more blood-shed. While these things are trans
piring, the Conference at Vienna, carry the idea
that peace will be the ultimatum Of their dcliber-
atoms, but we think the sequel will prove that II
is merely to give Nicholas time to consummate
his plans. The Car is no fool, and if he can
keep the troops of France and England in the
field six months longer, he knows full well, that
he will then be able to dictate peace on his own
terms. By that time the flower of the English
and French armies will have persisted, and these
powers will be glad to withdraw from the contest
Place Russia in whatever light We may, We think
she has the advantage and will keep it. We
shall see.

the strong convulsive emotions of the breast when

break not the deep solemnity by rude laughter or
intrusive step. Despise not woman's tcars-thcy
