IScIDgSTs OF TIE FLooD.-Wc find the
following in the HennePin Tribune. Why
don't the editor give the names Of the noble
citizens who so nobly turned ont to res
cue the drowning:
The river continued to rise until Saturday
morning, whea some OF our citizens started
up the river in q boat, for the purpose Of
rescuing any who might need their services.
When the had proceeded about two miles
they discovered three men and dog cling
ing to a log about three hundred yards from
the river, in ten feet of water. 1t appears
that they had attempted to escape on raft,
which they had built, TO Hickory Ridge, but
their craft had been rent asunder by the
swift current which had driven their frail
bari, among the trees, where they had foun-
dered They passed on to cabin a short
distance from these where they were arres
ed by the cries of several small children in
a garrct about three feet high, and eighteen
inches above the water, which was rising
rapidly. One Of these little fellows, peepng
through the chinks OF the cabin, asked "If
he would drown"
"No you're safe, you're safe =! exclaimed
the man in the boat. The little fellow turn
ing to his mother, said I'VE wont drown,
mother, Tie Nlan says We wont. lnlS
scene was too affecting TO their kind hearted
rescuers it touched their hearts, and they
gave vent to their sympathetic feelings 10
tears. They then went back to the spot
where the men were clinging to the log,
and found them we'll nigh exhausted, but
still hanging with that tenacious grasp with
which We adhere to life when we contemplate
the terrible prospect CT immediate dissolu
ton. They took them into their boat and
landed them safe at this place.
In the evening Of the same day, the same
party embarked for Lomax's saw mill, on
Bureau creek, about a mile from town, to
which point they were compelled to break
the ice in order to obtain channel OF sui
ficient width for their boat to pass. Before
arriving at the mill they discovered Mr.
Harris clinging to a small raft, who was on
his return from Hickory Ridge, whittier he
had taken his cattle in order to save them
from drowning. The poor man was so be-
nun,bed with cold that he could scarcely ar
ticulate thanks TO his preservers. After tax
ing him on board they proceeded to the
mill and took on board as many persons as
the boat could carry, who were in a drown
ing condition when the boat reached them.
They made two trips to that place, and re-
turned safely each time with their precious
freight Of men, women and children. 'it I

TuoRorGH DRAIyrSG-lrs COST RErrRsED
BY OxE CRor.-The piece of land which was
entered by Dr.. II. A. Grant, of Enfield, Ct.,
for the premium of the State Society, and to
which it was awarded, measured one aero
and five eighihs. This was drained by lay
ing drains, according to the ground, 80 to
40 inches deep, and 40 to 50 feet apart, at q
cost of STAT. 1t vas plowed and planted,
manured with leached ashes in the hill,
titled and harvested at cost not exceeding
s25: making the whole expense of the crop
and drainage sl72. The yield was 156
bushels of corn, which realized DIR. Grant
sl.25 per bushel, making s195. and leaving
a surplus of $23 profit. We have the
account from DIR. Grant himself, and do not
racollect the estimate he put upon the ashes
he employed. No other manure was used,
however. Corn is not always worth $l.25'
per bushel, but nevertheless the benefit Of
the draining is less evident. The land
before was wet during much of the summer,
and produced late in the season good
yield of hay.-lhs Homestead. .'

NEWSPAPER CREDIT SYsrEY.-A rather
magniGcently proportioned illustration OF
the credit system can be found in the con-
dition OF the Richmead Enquirer, when
after fifty yeals OF publication, its proprietor
removed to Washington, his books showed
over $500. 900 due from living patrons.
The amount of total loss was not given,
but was estimated at 100000 or more.
Dishonesty seems TO find its eliminating
point in the practice Of many newspaper
subscribers.
