terday morning, and Immediately proceeded,
in wagons, 70 the upper country. They
numbered about forty-fve. rank and iile,
and arc as fine looking soldiers - ever
marched through our streets. They were
well armed, and uniformed according to
regulations, with the exception Of red fan
mel shirts in place Of coats.
The City Guards, Capt. OGOrmsn, mum
bering nearly fifty men, started from this
city about eleven O'Clock yesterday morning
They were in dark pants and blue flannel
shirts, and armed, like those who had pre-.
ce,ed them, with the regular musket, and
also such varieties OF fire arms and cutlery
"a their means and tastes allowed They
were hardy looking act Of boys, and went
Of in high spirits.
The Companies now en- route for Monti-
cello are
Pioneer Guard, Capt. Western, Company
A, 23d regiment.
ST. Paul City Guard, Capt O'Gorman,
Company Is, 23d Regiment.

These formidable preparations indicate
the determination OF the Commander lin
Chef 10 sustain the laws ut all hazards and
at any expense, and in this he is sustained
by the entire community, whatever differ

wisdom OF the means employed 10 effect this

The reports which come 10 US Of tho state
of feeling in Wright county, In view OF this
military demonstration, are 10 conflicting

nature Of the reception which our soldiers
will meet with on their arrival In the local..

Onc gentleman. well acquainted with the
country and the people, ASSERTS that the
soldiers will find no tocs there--that all
hands will be busy gathering their crops
and that their passive state will BE- much
more pcrplcxing than open resistance. An

DEnRUCrWE FIgE About s o'clock
r. NJ. on the 4th. the ice house Of Charles
Symonds, in the ID Ward, was discovered
70 be in flames, which entirely consumed
that, together with four other buildings.
The FIRE spread from thence to the large
bewery OF Anthony Yoreg, and 70 the
stables and dwelling house also owned by
Charles Symoods, which were entirely con-
sumed.
But very little personal property was des.
troyed, save four or five hundred bushels OF
malt belonging 10 Mr.. Yoreg. A large
amount Of brewed beer was 10 the vaults,
but Il supposed 10 be uninjured. And we
are informed that but little Ice remained In
the ice house. The total loss Is estimated ut
not more than from eight 10 ten thousand
dollars. We were informed by Mr.. YOreg
that his loss would not amount TO more than
three thousand dollars, on which there was
no insurance.
On Mr.. Symonds property there was an
insurance OF three thousand dollars-fIteen
on the building and the same amount on the
ice, OF which there was but small amount
on hand.
The fremen AZ body, ~ usual, were ut
their posts, and VIC must say, from all the
disadvantages which they labored under, in
procuring water, deserve great credit in
saving the many valuable buildings sur
rounding the fire.
We were unable to learn up To the time
Of going to press, in what way the fire
caught, but no doubt through some gross
carclcssnes.

BUILDING IN Sr. PAUL.--Morc buildings
are in process OF erection here at the pre-.
sent time than at any period during ten
wears past, and no one can have Jailed 10
observe that they are Of more substantial
character, and possess more architectural
beauty. The day Of ten foot balloon frames
has passed, and people seem inclined to
patrOnizc the professional architect, or to
consult standard works on architecture, in
selecting their plans for building, in prefer
enoo to following the uncultivated tastes Of
the mere wood butchers Of former days.
The business blocks on Third Street are Of
stone, and built in the most substantial man
ner, and would do credit to any Atlantic city,
and We are confident they will prove to be
excellent investments tor their enterprising
owners.
The cheapness of lumber and wages, in
comparison with previous year,, have in
duced many OF our citizens, who have be-
come tired Of boarding house and hotel life,
TO build homes of their own. The young
men too, who have been sleeping for years
on old lounges, in dingy Offices and stores,
have sighed for more comfortable nests, and
propose to mate this fall, and We may ex-
pect during The harvest moon mating and
Hegira to these cages and nests So carefully
prepared.
We have been informed that in no place
on thu Mississippi river, is there half so
many buildings going on that there is in
st. Paul.

sss EssSss1.
We received by telegraph last night
later osws from the Island Of San Juan
relative 70 the movements Of the
American and British troops there !;
and By the arrival Of the Arabia 1t
Halifax, from England, We learn Of
the effect produced 10 that couotry by
the news Of Gen. Harney's occupation
Of the isls nd 10 question.
The news from the island Of San
Juan indicates that there will be no
collision between the forces Of the two
governments for, although Governor
Douglas seemed determined to pro-
woke an encounter with the Americans,
the British Admiral on that station
hes proved . man OF cooler tempera-
ment having refused to obey the or
ders from the Home Government be-
fore taking any decided action. Mean
while Gen. Harvey had notified Gov.
Douglass that his object in taking poo.
session Of the Island Wa solely 70 pro.
tsct the Americans there from the 10.
suits Of the British authorities Of Van
couver Island and Of the Hudson Bay
Company head Of the last named
being none other than Gov. Douglass
himself. The discreet decision Of the
British Admiral will prevent HOSTILE
ties, and the arrival on the ground Of
Gen. scott will secure peace until the
the two governments can come to 40
understanding.
The news from England is that the
organ OF Lord Palmerston, the London
Post, had taken the view which We
had reason to expect it would assume.
II asserts, with Palmerstonisn indigna-
ton, that the British government can
not tamely submit to the occupation
Of the island BY tho Americans. and
that they will see that justice is done
to British subjects. This is simply
carrying out the established policy OF
the British government to make e.
tensive claims in cases of dispute, in
order to secure even . email share in
the end.
But the matter is one for diplomacy,
and can be settled easily between the
two governments, if England is sincere
in her protestations Of . desire for
peace with the United States, and
will consent TO be guided by common
sense and equity. We have already
surrendered large portion Of Terri.
tory on our North Western boundary
for the sake Of peace, Our govern
ment will not give up this island Of
San Juan, which is clearly ours, aud
should by all means remain in our
possession.-N. Y. Herald.

The OLD FRANKLIN PREss.-Tbe
old press at which Franklin worked in
Boston on the New England Currant,
in 1920, has been preserved for more
than . century in tie printing office oil
the Newport Mercury. The Mercury
was established by James Franklin,
brother Of the philosopher, who then
owned and used the press. 1t has
recently been sold, and is now the
property Of John B. Murray, Esq, of
the firm Of John b. Murray Il Co.,
bankers, New York city. MI. Murray
is already the owner Of one press at
which Benjamin Franklin worked in
Watts printiug-house, near .Lincolin's
Inn Fields, London, in 1885. This
old press Mr.. Murray procured in Lon.
don in l84l, and deposited for safe
keeping in the United States Patent
Office ut Washington in l841, where it
still remains. The only two presses
