The congregational Church in this
city, have leased the new Court House for
the winter, and have commenced to hold
regular services there.
We notice daily in our streets, parties
with their pack horse and baggage, or single
individuals with bundle swung from rifle
over their shoulder, making tracks for the
woods.
FARMERS in this section have been grumb-
ling not without reason this fall at the low
prices and dull sales for their products, but
unless we much mistake, there is better
time coming for them, and that shortly.
YESTERDAY, the twenty-sixth, was observed
in Wisconsin as Thanksgiving Day.
The Chronicle is particularly down on ille-
gal voting. 1t gives list of voters who
swore in their votes there,-principally the
Mahoneys, Murphys, ONails, etc.-so that
citizens can see if any of them are illegally
sworn in.

Slavery In the Free States.

The Washington Union of the 18th pro
claims the doctrine. as an article in the Dem
ocratic creed, the Constitutional right Of the he
lave holder to remove with his slaves 10 an.
FREE STATE and hold them there! ! ne lirs'
preat aggression upon the North was the re-
neal re the Missouri Conpr romisc. Next
came the Dred Scott lecislon then the Bu-
chon.n le,,cr to Sllliuan declaring that the
Const;tntion carries Slavery into all Terrific
r;os IF tho limited States. Now we have..t the
f"nrth sten in this down hill road to despot-
ism, that the Constitution overr,des State
rights and carries slavery into all the States.
The fifth and last scene in the drama, is the
re-opening Of tn. African Slave trade, which
is fiercely advocated by the South. Oh,
Democracy, what crimes are perpctrated in
thy name Chicago Tribune.

REMARKABLE DIsPATCH-A Post Office
has been located at the town of Fairview, in
this county, and T. b. Haggard appointed
Post Master.
On learning from the people Of that town
that they wished Post Office David Han

mediately reported in favor thereof and that
he would supply it without extra charge, and
in ten days the appointment was received at
the Red Wing Post Office. A commenda-

Gold Feyer i'm the Lake Superior Coun-
tFV.

We learn from private source that con-
siderable excitement was lately caused at On
tonagon by the arrivrl of party of Indians
from the head waters of the Menominee Riv-
er, bringing with them remarkably rich speci-
mems of gold bearing quartz. They repre-
sented that the country was rich with the
same species of mineral. Some of the lead
ing mining men Of Ontonagon, after examin-
ing the specimen, formed an agreement with
the Indians to guide them to the place from
which they procured the specimens, and also
to keep the matter secret for the present
By their special request the Ontonagon pa
pers are also silent in regard to the expedi-
ton. The Menominee River rises in Mar
qnette County and flows southeast into
Green Bay. 1t forms the southern boundary
of the peninsula. 1t is thought that the
heavy Shows which have lately fallen will
perhaps, prevent the explorers from reaching
their destination this falL-DstroI Free Press,

LINES TO E

Though many a shadow rests upon
This saddeued heart of mine,
A thought of thee, oh dearest one,
Comes like a prayer divine:
And though loved ones are often near
With songs of gentle glee,
All me they are not thine, and still
My spirit turns to thee!
All yes, love to muse on thee,
At this calm, gentle hour,
When winds go singing pleasant tunes,
And kiss each dropping flower;
And bright above the holy stars
Are dancing in their glee--
Then, soft as angelwkisperS come
Heart-cherished dreams of thee!
Oh, may thy dreams be pure and bright,
And sweet thy balmy sleep,
While a gels round thy breathing form,
Their holy vigils keep;
And soft as dew upon the flowers,
May dream land watt to thee
Some tender tale of future hours
Some treasured thought Of e.

Provisions AND SuPPLrEs.-Since our last
ISSUE we have had the arrival of four steam
ers, brineing us large amount of supplies
&c. On Thursday last the Iron City and City
Of Superior arrived, the former dischargng
700 and the latter 500 bbls freight. On Fri
day the North Star and Mineral Rock made
their appearance; the former having on board
for this point 500 and the latter about 1900
bbls freig ght, making the gross receipts for the
week in the neighborhood of 5000 bbls.
The mines and our merchants generally
have pretty much all their supplies now in
store, and, as the Lake Superior fleet design
making at least one more trip. we feel safe in
saying that all our goods ordered will arrive,
and if the money "psnic" does exist We have
the satisfaction of knowing that there are
provisions enough in the country to feed all

Marriage.

Nature never did betray the soul that
loved her. and nature tells men and women to
marry. just as the young man is entering
upon life just as he ONES to independence
and mans estate Just the crisis Of his being
when it is to be seen whether he decides
with the good and the great and the true,
or whether he sink and be lost forever-nat-
rimony gives him ballast and right impulse.
War with nature, and she takes sure re-
venge Tell a young man not to have an at
tachment that is virtuous, and be will have
one that Is vicious. Virtuous love, the hon
est love of man for the woman he is about to
marry, gives him an anchor for his heart -
something pure and beautiful for which to
labor and live. And the woman, what
pure ght it sheds upon her path it makes
life for her no day dream, no idle hour, no
painful shadow, no passing show, but some
thing real, earnest, worthy of heart and
head. But most of us are towards, and
dare not think so; we lack grace ; we are of
little faith our inward eye is dim and dark.
The modern young lady must marry in style !;
the modern young gentleman marries for
tune. But in the mea anwhile the girl grows
an old maid, and the youth takes chambers
-ogles at the nursery maids, and becomes a
man about town, man whom it is danger
Gus to ask into your house, for his business
is intrigue. The world might have had a
happy couple instead, it gets woman, fret
full, D ague to all around her. He becomes
a sceptic i'll all virtue; a corruptor OF the
youth of both sexes a curse in whatever do
mestic circle he may penetrate Even worse
NAV result. She may be deceived, and die
of broken heart. He may rush from one
folly to ano her. associate only with the vic
cious and the dcpraved, bring disgrace and
sorrow upoa himself and all around him, and
sink into an early grave.
Our great cities show what becomes Oi
men and women who do not marry. World
ly fathers and mothers advise not to marry
till they can support wife and the boys
wickedly expend double the amount in bad
company. Hence it is all wise men OikC

NOVEMBER.

Pale dreary Autunn's eve mas come-
The twilight Of the year
The Summers gilded sun has set,
And cherries Winters here.
upon the mountains wrinkled brow
The leafess monarchs sway,
While playful winds and rustling leaves
In waltz and schottische play.
The weeping willow sghs like grief
That has no heart to burst;
And yearns as frutless as the "fg"
For barrenness accursed.
The tree that stands in Eden's midst
That bore the fatal fruit
Mi. hit learn to play its song of grief
Upon the willows lutte.
The sumacs loiter on the glen
With scarlet pompons plumed--
The image of phosphoric seas
by lightnings flash illuned.
In lonely awe and grandeur stands
The green-clad mountain pine;
Its awful, agonizing dirge
Is fearfully sublime.
That dirge no tongue will e'er describe
Thoughts Lutte need never try;
Remorseless grief can strike no chord
That initiates its sigh.
II fsepulckres were .Eolian harps,
And strung with dying groans,
Some fallen angel might contrive
To chant such dismal means.

SERVED HIM RIGHT-A few evenings since
an ex-policeman met one of our most quiet
ard peaceable citizens on Main street, and
without the least provocation whatever struck
him with slung shot. The blow was not
sufficient to prevent the assaied party from
pursuing and knocking down his assaiant
with his cane. The next day the expolice-
man was arraigned before Justice McKinstry
and fined one hundred dollars. Two other
individuals were fined and committed for con-
tempt of court during the progress OF the
