OCT Very beautiful is the following "Re- membranes" flom the pen of Pred There are tones which will haunt us, tho lonely Our paths be o'er mountain and sea, There are looks that will part from us only
 When memory ceases to be. There are hopes which our burdens can tighten, Though toilsome and steep be the way, And dreams that like moonlight can brighten, With light that is clearer than day.

A NEW SPECIES OF CoTToN-Mr. Thomes Smith, who resides in the immediate vicinity of Richmond, has a small field of cotton which is considered a curiosity by all who have seen it. It differs but little in appearances from the or dinary kind, except in color, which is as deli cately crimson as a maiden's blush. Not only is the stalk of this georgeous hue, but the leaves also, the vividness of color fading however, as it approaches the margin of the leaf, into pur- plish green. This is not the effect of disease or of any extraneous circumstances connected with its culture but peculiarity in the plant itself, every stalk posing the same rich and healthful glow, and thrifty as any cotton in the coun- try. Where the seed origionally came from we have not as yet ascertained. The prospect ofa heavy yield is equal to that of any other species, beidg we'll boiled. and the weed of vigorous growth We.were shown the lint of a few bolls, of last years growth, and for fneness and
 length of staple we believe it not inferior to the sea island. If this cotton turns out as well as present appearances indicate, it will be valua- ble acquisition to this branch of agricultural in- dustry.LRic1mond, Y, Reporter, July 24.

A meeting Of the citizens Of Pennington was held
On the 29th April, to take some steps to aid in further
ing the interests Of the County Agricultural Society.
It was called to order by appointing Ariel Wellman to
the chair, and c.. r. Rollins secretary.
Mr.. w. Jones gave a brief address setting forth the
object of the meeting, and reviewed the proceedings Of
the various meetings held throughout the County.
Mr.. Jones then offered the following resolution
Resolved, That this meeting favors the Dakota Go.
Agricultural Society, and are willing to sustain it.
Adopted unanimously.
q MI. Henry Lille offered the following resolution -
Resolved, That this meeting deem it advisable for the
Dakota Comfy Agricultural Society to purchase forty
acres Of land near the south branch Of the Vermillion
river for permanent Fair Grounds. t:l
A general expression was given in favor Of the &c.
ciety and its proceedings. A vote of thanks was also
rendered 70 MI. Jones for his ~exertions in establishing
the Agricultural Society.
4 meeting Wa appointed to be held at Lakeville on
the LIST inst, and the meeting adjourned.
Il viii be seen from the shove proceedings, and also
from those Of yarioss other similar ueetiugs, hereto
fore published, that the fasning community are almost
unanimous in favor Of securing permanent grounds
vhereon to hold the Agricultural Fairs. It is GER
tainly for them to say how and where the Society should
have Its Exhibition grounds, as it is got up expressly to
favor their interests. At the same time it is not proper
for the Society to change its plan Of operations for this
year, until it has been properly convened for that pur-
pose. Its Constitution and By Laws were framed by
farmers representing districts Of a large portion of the
County, and after due deliberstion adopted. It was
to avoid any suspicion that improper influence was
controlling its action, that the proposition to have the
6rst Annual Exhibition in the place that offered tho
greatest pscupiary inducements, was adopted at the 6rst
raeating, held in this town. The ~propristy Of tho
measure was certainly generally admitted at frst; but
now, after being discussed among the farming commu.
mites, it does not seem to answer their wishes. That
i may prove best to change it, We are not the party to
say, although We think the change should not be made
this year, while money il 50 scarce and business Of all
kinds depressed. However, We hope that At the meet
ing to be held in this town next Friday, the 7th inst,
scall will be Issued for a special meeting Of the Society
to consider the propriety Of making the desired change,
and that Delegates be invited from each precinct to be
present. If it then should seen best to make any
aediaeasieps in tls eoassitatisn, it viii no deabt -

At an informal meeting Of the Democratic citizens Of
Nininger Township, held in this place, agreeable to the
call Of the Chairman Of the Democratic Ex. Com, VIM.
FELTON,, Esq was called to the chair, and VIM. Govett
was appointed Secretary.
Mr.. A. N. Cheney stated that the meeting was called
at the request Of several members Of the p,rty, who
deemed the time AMI circumstances ~propitious for OF.
ganizing their scattered forces. As for him, he thought
it would be wiser to abstain until some party question
came before them. It was we'll known that q citizens
meeting was called to nominate Township officers with.
out distinction Of party this he regarded as most con-
ducivs to the interests Of the town. He was bound,
however, to abide by the decision Of the party in this
as in all other matters pertaining to its interests; at the
same time he deemed it his right and duty to aid in
directing its conduct. He therefore would advise to
cooperate with the citizens meeting.
Mr.. Mowry coincided with the views of the gentle
man last up. As chairman Of the Executive Commit
tee he had deemed it advisable to call the friends TO-.
gether for consultation, at the suggestion Of several of
them. As far as his own feelings were concerned, be
thought it better not to organize on merely local ques.
lions like the present the interests Of the town would
be better aerved by united action. za1
A resolution was then adopted that the meeting ad-
journ until Thursday evening, to meet At Elfelt's Hall,
at u o'clock.
A resolution Was also adopted to appoint q Democrs-
tic Township Executive Committee Of five. Messrs.
J. r. Case, A. n. Cheney, VIM. FELTON,, Charles K.
knight, G. h. Aowry, were appointed as such com.
mittes. q. at.t..e,
A motion was offered and carrird that the proceedings
Of the meeting be published in the E. A. Journal.
A resolution Of thanks were given to the editor Of
the Journal for his offer to publish all notices Of party
meetings. .f s.Ifa Essss
The meeting then adjourned evidently impressed
with the determination to nominate and also elect q
clean ticket.

held another meeting, and presesded to nominate q
straight ticket, not Be satisfied with the citizens party.

Emigration into Minnesota is on the increase, but
not TO euoh an extent 40 was anticipated. It seems
