THE LAND SALES.

In scarcely any one instance has the
Pres'dent displayed more foolish mis-.
management than in the case of the Min.
nesota Land sales. A measure that he has
persisted in, spite of the most earnes,
representations Of our Senators and Repre-.
sen'ativcs in Congress, of the unamimou.
sentiments Of our people as expressed thro
the press, BY petitions and through every
medium by which it has been possible to
approach him, and in spite Of the universally
admitted fact, that the sales cannot, unde,
the circumstances be productive Of any rev.
enue to Government, because, while there
rs no money to be obtained from even actual
settlers. in payment for their claims, swarms
|of spectators stand ready 20 cover every
vacant tract with land warrants, as soon as
it becomes subject to private entry. Blu,
the efforts that have been made in that be
half have been so far successful, that the
lands proclaimed for sale, liaye been limited
to those lying on the route Of the proposed
railroads More especially the people o.
this vicinity have reason to congratulate
themselves upon the fact that the Lake
Pepin Half.breed Tract" is not to be sold.
twas embraced in the original draft Of the
proclamation, but on tho representations,
and at the request Of Mr.. Phelps, our Rep
resentativc in Congress, was struck out.
The lands covered BY the proclamation,
in this district are those on the route oi
the railroads, and between ranges 18 and q
west. Comprising in all &c. Townships,
the greater part Of whieh-at least nine
tenths-has already been pre-empted. So
that the injury caused in consequence Of the
sale will not be SO serious as in the other
districts, but it will still prove great hard
ship to very many settlers, depriving them Of
their homes, Of the result of years Of labor.
We still hope that the sales will not come
off; as we have not i,een able to learn that
they have yet been advertised, and as very
strenuous efforts are still being made to in
duce the President to keep them out of
market. r." nd

WHAT SHALL WE DO!

Red Wing is quiet as Sunday. No team!
in the streets. The men folks are all ou
harvesting, and it's too hot for women folk,
to circulate around. To be sure we nov
and then catch a glimpse Of &. fan wavin!
behind curtain, but that much is only al
aggravation. The papers are entirely de
void of news or Of anything interesting
The new books are flat and dull, and tn
old ones too heavy for the season. Every
body is depressed and lieles,, seeking TO
nothing but shade. The sky has been low
cry :or three days, but the clouds are to-
lazy to rain, or else find the water too com
Portable to part with it.. . ,.'..'.
Lemonades and cigars bring no relief.
what shall we all do ? w
Up on tho prairics, tley say, the breeze il
rustling over the the wheat fields and thro
the corn. How beautiful is the grand swell
of the green sward, rolling off until far away
it mingles with and is lost in the sky. Ane
those groves, like islands floating beautifully
on the sea ; and the clouds, other islands
covered with verdure. only so distant tha
the foliage is indistinct and massed together
And the sweet scented harvest fields. Yor
can hear the cradles sliding gracefully thro
the grain-the tinkling cow bells-tht
ceaseless hum Of the bees and flies, and the
gently ripping brook-all befitting, and
harmonizing with. a tranquil frame of mind
Out under 'hese influences, one no longer
Graves for excitement, and it is not tiresomt
to have nothing to do. We find an easy
position without tossing or fretting; thu
smoke from the cigar curls peacefully up
wards and the mind is filled with the beau
|,iful and sentimental.
So if You are tired and ,listless and de-
pressed, here in town, as you always will b
in such hot woather, with nothing to do
betake yourself to the lovely praireis, ant
experience the miraculous and happy chang
that will take place in all your feelings an,
sentiments. and philesophize if you will up

The greatest objection the editor OF the
