A meeting Of some Of the prominent men Of Rice,
Goodhue, and Dakota Counties, and Pierce Co., Wiz,
was held at Hastings on the 3Oth inst, for the purpose
Of devising means to induce emigration to this portion
Of the country. A number Of resolutions were adopted
setting forth the views Of the meeting as to tho course
that should be pursued to accomplish this object. tits
to have a series Of articles prepared, setting forth the
advantages Of the various sections, and have them pub.
lished in the papers in the above counties, and 500
copies Of each to be taken for g~ratpitops distribution,
and paid for out Of a general fund. This seems to be
an excellent and feasible plan to effect a good deal at
. triding cost the information sought to be dissemins.

Minnesota AZ Regarded by Scientific Men.
Lieutenant Maury, in a recent letter to = scientific
journal, speaking Of Minnesota, says 3 81.
There is ia this Territory a greater lumber Of these
lovely sheets Of laughing waters, than in all the country
besides: They give variety and beauty to the land
scspe; they soften the air, and lend all their thousand
charms and attractions to make this goodly land lovely
place Of residence. We see that, with these beautiful
sheets Of water, nature has done for the upper Missis-
Sippi what Ellet proposes should be done for the gov
ernment for the Ohio, and what Napoleon III, is doing
sg the rivers Of France.
Every one Of these thousands of lakes is q reservoir
tor the rains in the wet season, which it reverses to fill
up the river in the dry-at least that is one Of their
Offices, for they have many. The consequence is, that
though moee water falls from the sky upon Minnesota,
IN summer, than you in New York receive ip winter or
spring, yet the Mississippi there is never flooded. The
difference between extreme high and low water at St.
Paul IL not more than six or eight feet-while further
down, as a Memphis, the difference is many times as
great. TIE difference on the Ohio, | think, is upwards
If thirty feet.
Minnesota is far from the sea, but it is a better va.
tered country than either Kansas or Nebraska. Indeed
it may be considered the best watered State in the
Union, and it doubtless owes its abundance Of summer
rains measurably to this leke system r

The County Agricultural Society.

The meeting at Hastings on Saturday the 9th inst.
was highly satisfactory, and although it may be said
that it was poorly attended, yet, they who did attend,
most coveted in this noble e~qterprise and, when We
find such men taking an interest in any enterprise, and
especially in one in which the highest interests Of a la
boring people are concerned-viz., an association Of
agricultural inteEests-we are sure of the success Of the
enterprise. These men not only gave US their pyesence
but their membership also.
Mr.. 1gnatius Donuelly gave the meeting a practical
address on agriculture, and the great interests bordering
upon it. 1t would tend more to the deyelopemept Of
our agricultural resources, if the people could avail
themselves Of such practictical hints-as Mr.. ponpelly
gave-more frequently. Ill. haA
Asset Of Bylaws were adopted by the Society, which
together with the Constitution, and the Rules and Reg
ulstions governing the exhibition Of articles at the An
nual Fair-Ygill be published in pamphlet form and

1t is sincerely hoped that every farmer, mechanic,
and merchant every oonnoisseur in the fine arts; every
educator; every female in the County Who desires to
exhibit her peculiar skill in various kinds Of hspdiwork
will I'll, chesrfally, enter into this scheme for the COM
mon good, and become members.

Business Of a legitimate kind is still quite dull here.
although the banking institutions are heaped full and
overlooking. The stock gamblers are playing an inter.
esting and exciting game Of odd-and-even in railroad
securities, while merchants, manufacturers, shopkeepers
and mechanics are pinched to meet their current ex.
penses. This state Of things will, however, we think
be bat temporary.
Western emigration is q much talked Of subject now.
a-days. Allowance must however be made for the fact.
that at least two persons speak Of moving Westward,
for one that gets under way; and ia the universal dis
content and very prevalent ID es4isu 49, e4ist,M Is
but natural that many should cast their eyes Westward.
What result will follow,-whether a great exodus or .
~dribbling removal,-it is, l think, beyond the power Of
any one to predict: My own opinion is that there viii
be 9 very considerable emigration. Thousands Of indi.
viduals will seek to change the current of their fortune
BY changing the place Of their residence, and no doubt
the greater proportion will find their anticipations
realized.
The religious excitement still continues. Its extent
is wonderful. It is reaching now over q number Of
States, and is spreading itself even into the humblest
hamlets and villages. Who can doubt IN view Of such
manifestations that the mind hath ~epidemics even as
the body hath, and that this is Of one them. Our great
country seems prone to sweeping contagious o. senti-
mens, whether they assume . political, a social, a apecu-
llasive or . religious aspect.
