Our Manufacturing Interests.

Nothing affords us more solid pleasure than to
witness the growth of manufactures among as,
especially in this city. The sound of the saw
and the hammer, the anvil and fan. makes music
to our more pleasurable than the finest efforts
of nine-tenths of the world-styled prima DOM as.
In this our new and practical land, we would
look with full encouragement to every species of
manufacture which aims to convert the raw ma
terial of the farmer and the miner into shape for
still greater utility. Every wagon, pillow, engine,
saw-mill or pound of flour manufactured in our
midst, is just so much inherent wealth retained
by us. Every department of trade has its repre-
sentative already here. Why not that of manu-
factures9 Throughout the Territory, ores of
many kinds abound, which, one day, will astonish
the most sanguine and enterprising. Although
their Development lies just ahead, it requires
time to ripen their manifold advantages, and
incalculable wealth. As the commercial heart of
the Nation throbs, and the Iron Horse pants for
transit acress our fertile lands toward the Pacific,
we should get ourselves in right position respect
ing manufactures. We have present facilities
for establishing among us workshops which shall
yet be able to supply the power to convey the
wealth of India to our doors. Capital should
seek some of these channels, whereby we are to
reach our future greatness. Encouragement of
manufactures among us will confer greater
advantages upon our city than the same amount
of means withheld. Already the blacksmith and
the machinist have come hither to help on the
work. New Foundries spring up and announce
their readiness to supply the public with their
products. Let the solid men of St. Paul see to
these things and their " stocks on change" will
be all the sounder.

To the Ladies.

Madam-Miss-yes, we mean you AS this is
the time for New Years calls, We wish to call
upon you in the early morning, and ask you if
you will do good deed to-day-or rather if you
will refrain from doing bad one? We know
you will Do not prefer to that bevy of young
men the ruby glass you have prepared. They will
respect you as highly if you withhold tiff not,
you can maintain your self:respect, and the ap-
prevail of clear conscience. Keep the wine of
your side-boards to-day. While your young
friend drinks "long life to you" he drinks short
life to himself. But once touch that fountain of
appetite, and a stream of unconquerable habit
may gush forth, that will flow through the chan
nels of long life, to embitter the charms of man
hood, and the placid purity of age. If sorrowful
results do follow, may your fair hand be guile
less! Will you keep q cold-water side board
to-day? You can pledge your friendship just
as strong; you can bury mutual animosities
just as deep in its crystal cup-your sleep will
be sweeter, and your guest will be far better off.
Try it once.

The Territory of Arris0nia.

Mr.. A. P. Cook, who has arrived in Washing.
ton, as n delegate from this Territory, formed
from the Gadsden purchase from Mexico, reports
the population to be from 10000 to $4,000, and
that the Territory will make State about az
large as Pennsylvania.
We find floating on the newspaper sea the
above, which seems to indicate that Arrisonia is
"some." On the contrary it is boundless bar

by few Indians and half-breeds. Even grass
hoppers have emigrated to Texas, and when car

Blood for Blood |!

The Iowa Legislature was, at last accounts,
engaged upon a discussion of Bill providing
for the repeal of Capital Punishment. The bill
was finally tab led by vote of 40 to 20. The
world is coming to it. Not many years will
pass ere men will understand that electors cannot
confer upon govern ment that right which they
themselves do not po ssess-the right to take life
that the doctrine that revenge is wrong for indi-
viduals, but right for Legislatures is q weak
sophsm; and that han giug man up between
heaven and earth, when Society can be otherwise
protected, is unwise, da ngerous and inhuman.
Keep the question before the public.

passed into History, and the heart throbs with a
sublime hope as we stand upon the margin Of
