The SECOND MINNESOTA REGIMENT
Eight companies have been mustered into
the service of the United States " for three
years or during the war;" The ninth, it is
said will be made up of Ramsey county
volunteers, Hastings volunteers and volun-
teers from Red Wing, it being found i'm
possible to recruit full company from
either of the towns named. Where and
how the tenth company is to be raised is
more than we can tell, unless the original
spstem of A. Ward be adopted allowing
it to be composed exclusively of comman-
ders in chief, of whom there are severa
regiments in the State, all anxious to serve.
We hope the tenth company will be soon
offered, as it is important for the proper
care and discipline of the regiment that the
field officers should be appointed as soon as
possible, which cannot be done until the
requisite number of companies are mustered
in. If harvesting was over, there would
be no difficulty in getting men, but for two
months at least, our young men can make
more than eleven dollars month by stay
ing at home.
The clothing for the second regiment has
been purchased in Boston, and will arrive
in this city in the course of week or two.
We have seen the specimens of cloth for
coats, pants, drawers, tents, &C., and if the
manufactured articles are equal to the spec
linens, our soldiers will have no reason to
complain. The goods are OF excellent
quality, and will do good service.
Nothing definite is known as % the field
officers, but it is generally considered as
settled that Major Van Cleve, of Long
Prairie, and Captain George will have ap.
pointments.

MINNESOTA AND PACIFIC RAILROAD
We are glad to announce that work has
been recommended on the Minnesota and
Pacific Railroad, between st. Paul and st.
Anthony. The section most affected by
freshets is within the limits of this city,
where there are some heavy embankments.
These will be levelled up and prepared for
the soperstructure as soon as possible.
We understand the ties, rails and running
stock generally have been purchased, and
will be ready in the course OF few months
to be put in operation on the road bed.

GOLD ON THE SAsKArcHEwAN.-For a
year or two since it has been generally I'M
derstood that gold had been found on the
eastern slope of the Rocky Mountains in
sufficient quantities to pay for working, and
this has been fully confirmed by the arrival
in st. Paul of two gentlemen, in possession
OF some twelve or fifteen hundred dollars
worth of the precious mineral, of fine quail
ty, that has been forwarded 10 New York
by Messrs. Burbank & Co.
Mr.. M'Laren and Love, who brought the
gold to this city, have had experience in
mining in California, and are connected
with three others who are now at work on
the North fork of the Saskatchewan river,
along the tributaries of which for five or
six hundred miles east of the mountains
gold is found in quantities that will pay for
the labor of gathering.
The sum brought down by Messrs. Love
and M'Laren is not all they have gained in
the mines. They have sold some to the
agents of the Hudson Bay Company, and
have expended considerable in their outfit,
everything needed in this line being at
Califonia prices. Their sole object in COM
ing to st. Paul was to get provisions for
years residence in the mines.
1t is said that the presence of gold east of
the Mountains has been known long time
to the Hudson Bay Company, but for some
reason they have discouraged mining, al.
though they have bought all the specimens
brought in at their trading posts. The last
number of the Fort Garry Nor Waste
says:
We have reliable information that there is
gold on the Saskatchewan-at Fort Edmonton
and between that post and Fort Pitt There
have been frequent rumors of this lately, but
this places the matter beyond question. We
have no doubt of it now. 1t is of no use for
old Toryism to discountenance the fact, and
ignore the unpleasant information. It has been
the policy of many in this country, who dislike
publicity and would fain see these patriarchal
times continue forever, to ridicule all reports
and sentiments to the effect that we have gold
mines iu our neighborhood. But such policy
connOt repel hard facts. Our informers have
inst come from the district referred to, and
are practically qualified to testify, as they
have worked gold minds in Australia, CalifOr-
mia. and British Columbia. The gold on the
Saskatchewan is of the finest dust kind, like
that on Frazier River. We will speak more
fully of the discovery ere long.
The facilities for getting to the gold re-
gion are good. The stage and steamboat
from st. Paul will CONVEY passengers to
Fort Garry, about thirty miles above thu
mouth of the Red River in Lake Winnepeg,
and from thence, we presume, batteaux may
be obtained that will carry the miner up
The Saskatchewan. If the travel would
warrant, we are assured that Messrs. Bur-
bank are ready to run steamboat from
Fort Garry into the Saskatchewan.

GvmnaItieg ~ tbe Rvea,


DR.. Holland is now writing, inthe Spring
field Republican, series Of essays entitled
a examinations. In the first chapter he speaks
thoughtfully and beautifully Of the infnity
which lies below us-the wonders which are
diseoverable in little things Here is an
illustration, from which he deduces 8 valu-
able lesson;
These thoughts come to me, borne by Ger
tain memories. l remember a venerable
gentleman Of Bufalo-Dr. Scott-who did,
and who still does, very great things in a
very small way. At the age of seventy he
became conscious Of decaying power Of vision.
Being professionally physician and naturally
a philosopher, he conceived the idea that the
eye might be improved by what he denomi-
mated a series Of SECULAR gymnastics" He
therefore undertook to exercise his eyes upon
the formation Of minute letters-working
upon them until the organs began to be
weary, and then, ike a prudent man, resting
for hours. By pre- Pressing slowly and care
fully, be became, at last, able to do wonders
in the way Of fine writing, and also became
able to read the newspapers without glasses.
Here's hint for some clever Yankee-as
GOOD as fortune.) Now, reader, prepare for
q large story; but be assured that it is true,
aud that my hands have handled and my
eyes seen the thingsof which l tell you. At
! the age Of seventy-one, DR.. Scott wrote upon
an enamelled card with a stile, on space
exactly equal to that Of one side ofa three
cent piece-The Lords Prayer, the Apostles
Greed. the Parable of the Ten Virgins, the
/ Parable Of the Rich Man and Lazarus, the
Bestitudes, the fifteenth Psalm, the one
hundred and twentieth Psalm, the one huno.
| red and thirty-thir Psalm, the one hundred
and thirty-6rst Psalm, and the figures 1885,
I Every word, every letter and every punetua-
! ton, Of AL these passages, was written ex-
guisitely on this minute pace, and that old
man not only saw every mark be made, but
bad the delicaey Of muscular action and
steadiness Of nerve to form the letters SC
:. beautifully that they abide the test Of the
highest magnifying power. They were, Of
course, written by microscopic aid.

The Chicago WigwHm nt Auction.
A very small number of people gathered
ia the Wigwam this morning at ten O'Clock
to attend the auction sale of the building Il
was very lonely. The wreaths and garlands
has been torn dawn, struggling, faded rem

The American Eagle over the speakers stand
still had Its talonsfuH of cannon, guns, balls
and bombs, flags, spears, battles axes and tom
ahawks, but his eyes Wers faded and his
wings dropped, and he looked weary and dis
cOnsolate. The accumulated debris of cigar
stumps, peanuts, newspapers. plaeards, cleo
ton tickets; &c, &C, although eloquent souv-
enirs of bygones, added to the antiquated
and ruinous effect. The ante-rooms, like
chsrnel chambers, seemed ghostly, and the
blsckened walls gave out unnatural sounds.
A dilspidated stove-pipe, and the mu-
tilated forms Of plaster nymphs lying in
corner in the snowy ruin, were the only fur
niture.-Altogether it was funereal, solemn,

Coal BRANDY.-Among the inventions of
later years, the existence Of which is not
generally known as it might be, is coal brandy.
A weekly paper states that owing to the
moulding and rotting Of the grape, French
brandy-makers have adopted bituminous coal
as substitute. They distil a potent spirit from
this substance, which is thus made available
for the production of two kinds Of fre-one
for the comfort of man and the other for the
destruction Of his health. Large quantities
Of alcohol distilled from coal, and doctored
with certain chemicals to give it the Oognac
favour, are now exported from France to
England. Coal brandy is the latest adspta-
ton of the good gifts Of Providence to the
purpose of poisOn-mOngers that has come TO
our knowledge. Coal tar has long been used
for favouring Whiskeys. -.ses
