The ltasca, We mean, than VIII CHI finer
boat or more gallant crew does not sail the

~ On Sunday evening last, Bishop

ing the corner stone of Christ church in this
city. There was large congregation on
the ground. The work on the church has
been rapidly progressing during the past two

Mr.. Isaac Green's house is finished, and

~ In reviewing the commercial history
o! Minnesota, We find that lied Wing has
PISSED through the great crisis with less fall
ures and better credit than any town Of our
acquaintance in tie State. Our business
men have sustained themselves nobly. The
sudden revnlsion which caused the failure
OF SO many business houses in other places.
seems only to have stimulated our merchants
to greater exertions, and they rode out the
storm in safety. We doubt if there is a
town in the State whose merchants are
sounder. or that presents q more active, bu-
sincss.l like appearance, than our own little
city,. Notwithstanding the heavy stocks
that were brought on in the Spring, nearly
every boat brings fresh supply for some Of
our enterprising establishments. We we're
led to these re,narkss by looking over the
fresh stock Of late styles Of hats, caps and
Frcady-made clothing, boots ard shoes, &C..
&C., just received by our go ahead neighbor,
s. B. Foot whose advertisement will be
found in another ,column. Our dry-goods,
grocery and hardware men are constantly
|hl'ins up their broken assortments, and do
ing thriving business All that il neces-
|sary for ri merchant in RedsWing to do to
get rich. is. like Foot, to keep good stock
and advertise in the SENTINEL. g
