the Republicans in the Senate yesterday,

for an investigation into the truth or falsity
Of the charge Of corruption in the disburse.
ment Of the funds in question. Mr.. lIEAroN,
the Republican Senator from St. Anthony,
virtually admitted the charges were without

should have had man!iness and the honesty
to have granted the Committee Of Invest,

The Democrats were willing that the Com

Exclusively of Republicans. and that it shou't

GOOD TIMES COMING.

There are many indications which 60 to
show that without the intervention or help
Of legislators or governors good times are
again returning to Minnesota. There is
constantly increasing flow Of grain into oil
our river towns. and weekly increase
in the cash value Of the same. As far as
our own town is concerned, although the
roads arc in bad conditions for want Of
snow it never presented more lively appear
ance than it has for the last four weeks
A fair quality Of wheat has this week brought
lseventy cents per bushel-caah. Wheat
buyers arc numerous and purpose to pur-
chase an unlimited amonnt. ., The store
houses arc full and the question Of sto.
rage is becoming serious one. Our mer.
chants are busy from morning till night
and the cash sales exceed all former expe:
'ience in Red Wing. We are informed BY
friend that has: :1sde diligent search, tha,
there is not one vacant tenement in the

The immense quantities Of wheat in thu

sible to conceive without threading your way
through the forests of straw stacks, with
which the prairies are covered, and the yer,
fair price it is now bringing must make .
decided alteration. First instead Of payin:

:. Nothing has been done in Congress, since
our last, except to ballot for speaker. In.
d;cations are that speaker will soon be
elected. The Republicans have come with.
in few votes, Of tho necessary number
On the 2lst, Cobb Of Georgia asked them
whether they had no other candidate than
Shcrman-a member who had not endorsed
Helpers Book. This points at Corwin, who
would be elected on the first ballot if III.
Republicans started him. Then followed .
conversation between Cobb and E1hridge
(American,) in which it appeared that the
bulk Of the Americans are willing to sup
port Democratic candidate, as soon as il
is evident that their votes. will elect him
but said Ethridee you have no candidate
that can obtain the SO votes you claim -
Cobb stated that the objections to harmony
were now overcome, and the 18th ballot
was taken. Whole number 226-.neeessary
to choice ia Sherman LOG. .Millson So
Gilmer s, Etfridge z; Davis 4, Scattering Z
We look for the next ballot with great in
terest, as it is likely to elect Millson.
In the Seease;a aSlidell introduced > bill
making appropriations for the purchase
Of Cuba. Senator johnson Of Tennessee
introduced u homestead bill. ,,.p, y
In the Legislature nothing. At all has bee'
done. The Republicans having determined
to transact 20 business until Gov. Ramsey
is sworn in fearing the Democratic part!
may divide with them the credit for certai,
measures now proposed by both parties
The week has therefore been spent in dis
cussing the Abolition resolutions introduce,
