IMM1GRANrs.-Onl last Thursday even
ing party of immigrants arrived from be-
low. >, Quite a number Of new settlers have
come IN and taken farms in this and the
more western counties, yet the great tide
of emigration has not yet reached US
Perhaps the war excitement, and the num-
Der OF persons who are drawn off to partic-
ipate, may prevent so large flow of immi-
grants as we had reason to expect.
UPPER CoUNrRY.-Farmers from the
vicinity IF Sank Center, Alexandria, and
the contiguous country, inform us that the
crops are in a much more forward and
promising condition than &erc; although
that is unnecessary, as we have every
prospect of bo:mtiful harvests. Persons
just arrived from Green Lake report the
grass on the prairie to be kncc-h'gh, and
that the cattle which have been running
loose without any other l'od than this
grass, are in capital order for bccf-fat
and plump.

pany of soldiers for Fort Ripley, Captain
Morgan, (the St. Anthony Company
