The Northern Belle.-Among the nu
merous splendid steamers that make regular
trips to ST. Paul, there is none that has gained
a more enviable reputation than the steamer
Northern Belle; and when one becomes ac-
quanted with its gentlemenly officers its good
reputation is easily accounted for. Captain
LauoHroS is an old and experienced steam
boatman. having been on the upper Mississippi
more than dozen years. and is admi ed by
all, for his many generous qualities. CHAR
LEY HIND-the obliging. the accommodating,
the facetous and gallant Clerks universal
ly beloved everybody speaks well of C
HIND. Travellers, if you wish to enjoy your
selves and get your moneys worth, take pas
sage on the Northern Belle.

Visit to Fort SnelIlng.-We had occa-
sion on Friday last to visit Fort Smelling on
the popular steamer Northern Belle. There
was pleasure excursion on board from Roch-
ester, Mimi. accompanied by the Rochester
Brass Band and good Band it is. The
m mbers comprising the excursion were on
visit to the Fort to bid their friends adieu,
who had volunteered and were about TO take
their departure TO the n orthern Forts or South
crn war.
We met many of our old friends at the F ort.
who cordially took us by the hand, and by
the friendly pressure the thought occurred
" This may be the last time we meet"
The different companies are being daily
drilled. and from the parade we witnessed on
Saturday afternoon we should pronounce them
under good mil tary discipline for the time
in which they have been in service.
We saw Col. GoRMAN, who is untiring in his
efforts, and is anxious to have his men thor
oughly understand military tactics. He is
splendid looking officer, brave and noble
gentleman, and all who may be under his
command may well be proud of so gal ant
leader.
After the parade we were invited to par
take of supper through the hospitality of our
friend. Adjutant General LEkou, who by the
way. is making capital officer. and is ia
vorite with the officers and highly esteemed
by the soldiers in camp.
We saw MARY DowNIE, who is about six
feet four, and for r'w recruit appears Iemar-
kably well. MARY has been promoted TO the
office of Qcartermaster, for the reason. no
doubt, of displaying true valor and preserving
an equ:nimity of mind during Inspection
MARY rooms with Adiutant LEIGH. and never
complains of the hardships and burdens that
soldiers must necessarily undergo during camp
screice.
There are two companies to be sent to Fort
Abercrombie within few days, they only
waiting for their clothing from the East. which
is expected every day. The Fort is about
fifteen days travel from st. Paul by land, and
will he long, tedious journey. They are to
travel with twenty seven mule teams, six
mules to team. Fort AbercrombIe is stua-
ted in Dakota Territory. in the Red River re-
gion. The two companies assigned for this
Fort are company c.. from St Paul, Captain
AoKFR, and company d. from Minneapolis.
Captain PUTNAM. This viii leave four com.
panies at Fort Smelling.

opposition that has met the Prescott company,
we are pleased to record that the company is
full and all ready" at moments warning.
to fight the battles of their country. The
members of the company were mustered into
service on Monday, by Major SWEET, of the
Sixth Regiment. This company is composed
of some of the best men in the country yes,
the very flower of the country" They are

Too much praise cannot be given to Captain
Dill. for his unt,ring zeal in securing men to
fill his company. Long may his name be re-
vered in the hearts of his soldiers.
Owing to the lateness of the hour we have
not time to give a lengthy notice of the Pres

Pierce County.-In our rambles through
Pierce county last week we were surprised to
see so many well imp owed farms as we found
scattered throughout the country. The land
too. is much better than we anticipated seeing.
A large proportion of it is timber, and re-
quires more labor to bring it under cultivation
than prairie land, but the soil is most excel
lent.
The country in the vicinity of the county
seat is very fine. particularly for grazing pur-
poses and we have no doubt that with n few
years there will be opened some of the best
stock farms in the country. There are now
quite a number of settlers scattered through
the woods, mostly Germans, who are impro-
wing the country rapidly in that locality, con-
sidering their limited means.

North Star. Thank you. JOSEPH
