THE IMPORTANCE OF ONE MILE.-By con-
structing canal about three lourths of mile
in length, from Big Stone Lake to Lake Ira
yer. steamboats, from St Paul could navigate
both the Minnesota aud the Red river of the
North to Lake Winnepeg. a distance of seven
hundred miles. The country traversed by
these rivers is surprisingly fertile and capable
of sustaining dense population. Lake Win
nipeg is larger than Lake Ontario, and receives
the Saskatchewan river from the west.
The Saskatchewan river is navigable to
point Edmonton House) near the Rocky
Mountains, seven hundred miles west of Lake
Winnipeg. and only one hundred and fifty
miles wett OF the celebrated gold diggings on
Fraser river in British Columbia.
The digging of that one mile of canal would
therefore enable steamboat at New Orleans
to pass into Lake Winnipeg, and from thence
to Edmonton House, some 5000 miles. A bill
has been introduced into the Senate which
makes provision for the building of the canal.
Probably in the world there cannot be found
spot across which the digging Of SO short
canal would effect a result SO prodigious. And
what is almost equally remarkable, the ground
between the two lakes is so low, and so level,
that, it is said, the water flows in time of
sreshets from one to the other Washington
Chronicle.

packs upon march.
The recent appointment by the Governor, of
Sergt. Maj. G. o. Gosse. of Portland, to the po-
sition OF I'd Lieutenant. has given immense sat
istaction to the line officers. Lieut.. Gosse is
peculiarly and naturally a soldier; cool, delib-

every qualification to lead and to control men.
