publican member o. Congress who the other day, voted
assinst the admission Of Minnesota as a State, and gavs
a. reason for lis vote, when taken to task BY his in
dlEnsnt constituents, that he wanted fro free States
made out OF he Territory. II the treasury is depleted,
It we're far better to have even a common board fence
placed around the Square than to let it remain il its pres
sni condition, as then cattle would be kept out stIeast.

strange notions about such matters, and their constit-

mated there was little hope for repairs being made to the
Square, unless the ladies o. the city tooK the matter in

sbjecti Il view Of calling their attention 10 the subject,
~ throw out the hint OF the zOdsr Alderman for their
Consideration.

adapted in its present form to planting cotton seed in
every condition Of soil It's prominent advantages as AZ

windy weather.
AnAehine combining 80 many good parts cannot fail 70
