BANK OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA
Some excitement was occasioned yesterday
by the closing of the doors of this bank.
The reason assigned for this action is, the
suspension of eastern correspondents, and
the consequent return on them of protested
drafts.
1t is understood that the owners of this
bank are responsible for the issues of the
Nicollet County Bank, located at St. Peter.
By the last report, the circulation of the
Bank Of the State was only about $4,000,
to secure which there are deposited in the
Office of the Auditor $4,000 of Minnesota
eight per cent. bonds, which are above par
at this this time in New York.
Of the Nicollet County Bank there are
also $4,000 of notes in circulation, for the
redemption of which there are $4,000 in
University bonds deposited with the Au-
ditor.
No fears are entertained by the holders of
notes On either of these banks of sustaining
any loss.
We are advised by the owners of the
Garden City Bank that there is no connec-
tion between that and the Bank of the State
nor the Nicollet County Bank, and that
their issues are secured by Minnesota eight
per cent. bonds.
The excitable state of the public mind in
relation to financial affairs renders the sus-

Half dozen horse railroads, scores of
omnibusses, carriages, hacks, wagons, carts

cattle were thorough bred, and their pedi-
gree, as indicated in the printed catalogue,

Among the objects of interest, is the
Power House, where the machines are
driven by steam power. The building is
over one hundred feet long, with shafting
its whole length, which sets in motion the
many machines there exhibited.

Black Republican Criticism of Daniel l
Webster

A Boston correspondent of the New
York Tribune furnished the following criti-
cism upon DANIEL WEBSTER. Old line
Wings who now swear by the Tribune, will
make note ont.
Daniel Webster was born in New Hamp-
shire, from which place, having been starved
out by his creditors in early life, he came to
Boston, where he was owned for thirty years
by few corporations, who, then finding
him damaged and expensive to keep, sold
him for $4,000 to a New York Company,
who soon put him off to the slave power for
promise of the Presidency. The last
purchaser, having got the article, did not
pay the consideration, and there being no
means of enforcing the contract, either in
Federal or State Courts, Mr.. Webster re.
tired to Marshfeld where, having "sot" on
Mr.. Winthrop, he died, and was buried
with great pomp. He was then duly can
noniz:d by MIR. Everett and his statue by
Powers, an execrable caricature, was set
up in the State House yard, causing much
speculation among the members of the
General Court, whether it was meant for
Pericles, Pompey's Pillar, or the Razor
Strop Man in a mood of wrapt contempla-
ton, or if it is Webster, whether it is Dan
iel, Noah, or the Professor Opinions differ.
A respectable tailor attracts good custom
by advertising that he did not make the
pantalOOns, on his statue.
MIR. Webster was good lawyer, a mod
crate statesman, poor diplomatist, and at
one period of his life an orator. From this
latter complaint, however, owing to full feed
ing, he recovered. His private life was
adorned with some virtues. He was a
first rate judge of chowder, the English
classics, and old otard. He was an expert
fisherman, though timid in boat a poor
shot, and had the best hog in Plymouth
county. He attended church with consid-
cradle Bregularity, and his respect for the
Methodist clergy was great. He hated
lean OK, an untitled can, and Abott Law
renee. He loved brook trout, Peter Har-
vey, and his country. He left to his family
splendid legacy of unpaid debts, and a
sincere love o! good liquor. He was good
looking man, Powers to the contrary, not
withstanding. The great army and innumer-
able company of American insolvents will
continue throughout all time to hail him as
their august apostle, and will treasure his
memory and copy his example with affec-
tiOnate fidelity and respect. To all good
little boys, and Presidential aspirants, the
chief lesson of his life is, OaUn Ihuelf.

PREPARING FOR A LARGE TRADE.--The Dry
Goods House Of Messrs. Cathcart is now being
filled up with very large stock of Winter
Goods, which the senior partner has been
selecting in New York. The long experience
of Aessrs. Cathcart as purchasers, gives them
peculiar advantages in making selections, and
the large stocks furnished four times yearly,
give them opportunities to buy mostly from
first hands, and their customers reap the bene.
fit of these advantages, in reduced prices for
the goods. This house is better prepared than
ever before, to compete with Eastern prices,
and the inducements offered to Country Mer-
chants will be great enough to save them the
time and expense of going East for Dry Goods.
County dealers will do we'll to examine their
stock and prices.

treaty would be drawn ceding Lombardy to
