STEAMER. NORTH STAR.

This boat has been purchased BY our
enterprising townsman, @. B. Day. and
is to be taken over the rapids here, to
run above, some say between this place
and Little Falls, and others above Grow
Wing. We believe boat Of suitable
size and construction might be made to
run, and do good business between
this and Little Falls, and If It can get
over the fall in the river at the latter
place, it might, in good stage Of water,
60 to Pokegoma Falls, two hundred
miles above Grow Wing. It is said that
Mr.. Northrup, Of Winnebago, is ex-
pected to purchase half of her. A more
entsrprising man can scarcely be found
in the Upper Country, and il these two
men take her in hand they can succeed
IT any two men can. A more important
enterprise for the benefit Of Sank r apids
and the towns above here could hardly
be started, and with all our heart wish
them success.
The North Star is expected here to-
morrow on her uphill trip.

Together with his own ideas upon the
subject proved that he had devoted much
time to its investigation. He stated.
that according to The most approved the
ory ofthe structure Of the earth, its SOL
i'd part or crust is but about thirty miles
in thickness. and that the whole interior
beyond this, is matter in a fused state.
He argued that earthquakes are produ-

earth, through assures, in some way
produced, into the fused matter, the ex-
pansive power Of which, is sufficient to
upheave the earth's surface, and to pro-
dnce all the phenomena Of the Garth
quake. That to the irresistible power
ofthis agent, steam, are we indebted for
the beautiful diversity Of hill and dale.

little inequalities in the surface Of the

eye, and which gives a great variety Of

This lecture was the close Of the
course and who is not ready to ac-
knowledge that time spent in this way
IS much more profitable, even to the best
informed in our community, than in any
KIND OF dissipation or idle gossip? BY
these lectures society has certainly lost
nothing in reputation or refinement in
fact we think it has gained much in
both. We are as community, under
great obligation to all the gentlemen

rational enjoyment as have these lee

OUR RAIL ROADS

The Loan Bill has passed bya very
large majority. and It is now 10 Be seen
whether Minnesota is to be visited with
those terrible disasters which the enc
mics Of the Bill predicted would Be The
result Of its adoption. Both parties
have tried since the election 10 cool
on a little, and we hope they will take
fair common sense view Of the mea-
sure. Much animosity was cngendered
by the strife. and party feeling ran SO
high that the interest Of the State was
IN many instances lost sight Of; but this
feeilng should no longer be allowed to
influence any one. What all are now
most interested in, is to know whatmea-
sures are being taken to commence these
Roads. 8
The bone and sinew Of the country
do not feel much interest in knowing who
IS going to make or who to lose political
capital by the course such have taken
IN TINS contest. The promise was that il
this Bill should be ratified by the votes
OF the people, these Roads should be
commenced forthwith without any far
Their aid. That no obstacle should stand
IN the way Of their progress according
to the provisions Of the Bill and their
character. We do expect to see this
promise redeemed. This is all Mime

prominent position among the other
States of the North West.
-Her resources are ample to enable her
TO do this, If she can have a chance
equal TO theirs. One thing she has
which IS gilmore Importance to her pros
Perity than any other one thing. most
salubrious climatic more healthy eli
mate than any other of tile Western or
northwestern States. This alone, with
SOIL much less productive than hers
would insure rapid developm.e Of her
resources-but when we come to add to
1t a beautiful and productive country
vino can doubt its rapid advancement in
all that constitutes great State Z. To
enable US to compete with Wisconsin
and Iowa, it is indispensable that our
system Of Rail Roads should be carried
out. Railroads we must have, even If.
we should lose the whole amount of this
loan, BY the time this SIS, GOO, 900 is
expended, our inhabitants will, in our
opinion, be better able to pay the whole
sum than they now are their ordinary
taxes. But we firmly believe that We
shall be called upon to pay 40 such tax.
The bill is well guarded--the Roads
VIII De constructed, and without the loss
OF single cent to our inhabitants.

EMIGRATION. We see accounts Of

every one seems to be making a strong
and manly effnrt to induce emigrants
to settle 10 their respective localities.

then anything else, to set forth each
advantage possessed and we sincerely
hope ttlateyery one will use its influence
tor the promotion Of emigration to our,
shores. AT . melting recently held at
Hastings,a committee on resolutions was
appointed, who reported in favor Of ssslb- i
scribing for five hundred copies Of each
newspaper published ia this portion OF
country, provided the papers will agree
to devote the first page to such publi-.
cations as may be furnished by the COM.

to prepare an advertisement setting
forth the advantages Of the country
that the same committee shall superin-.
tend the distribution Of these papers.
and for any locality DESTROYS Of joining
IN this movement and not possessing a
