ES In his first message to Congress, at
the extra session in the summer Of 1861, Mr.

EA. In his first message to Congress, at
the extra session in the summer Of 1861, Mr.
Lincoln said
Lest there be some uneasineSs in the minds
of candid men as ~ what is to be the course
Of the government toward the Southern
States after the rebellion shall have been
suppressed, the executive deems it proper to
say it vii! be his purpose then, as ever, to
be- guided by the Constitution and the laws
and that he probably viii have no different
understanding of the powers and duties of
She federal government relatively to the
rights OF the states and the people, under
the Constii uton, than that expressed in the
inaugural address. He desires to preserve
the gnveTmnen', that it may be adm mister
"a for all, as ii was administered by the men
who made 1t. Loyal citizens everywhere
nave the right 10 claim this of their govern
ncnt, and The government has no right to
wIihhold ur neglect it. 1t IS not perceived
that, III giving it, there is any coercion, any
conquest, or any subjugatIon, in any just
sense Of those terms.
Now atowing that the abandonment of
slavery shall precede the acceptance of over
ture olpeace, Mr.. Lincoln's message can be
only as the confession that he Is
doing What I" loyal citizens have right to
protest against his doing, and what he vio-
lates the Constitution and the laws of the
United States in doing. -...-.-.- 49,.

PEDESTRIAN JOURNEY.-A well-to.d

PEDESTRIAN JoURNEY.-A well-to-do
farmer of Delphi, Indiana, named Hoover, a
few weeks ago made up his mind that he
wanted to see how our Minnesota farmers were
prospecting this dry season, and that he would
come here and return without the trip costing
him much, while seeing a good deal of the
country, by coming afoot. In sixteen days he
reached Ottawa, LIE Sueur county, where he
had friends residing, and after spending two
weeks with them, reached st. Paul Monday,
having so far expended but $50 in his travels
He had seen much more of the country and
the people than ordinary travellers do, and was
in proportion pleased with our North Star
State. Having made little speculation in the
purchase of large quantity of honey in LIE
Sueur, he treats himself to a ride home by
steamboat and railroad, leaving here Monday
on the Stella Whipple which carried his honey.
When he has arrived home, it is his intention
to make longer journey afoot, to the "away
down East land of Maine to visit the friends
of his bovhOOd.

REAL ESTATE.
Sales During the Last Month.

We notice an increased demand among capt.
talists and tradesmen to obtain possession of
buildings and lots located in the business part
of the city. Property on Third street, below
Wabashaw and above jackson, seems to be
considered the most desirable, and sales are
readily effected for lots $50 feet in depth at
5000 per front foot.
This competition for Third street property
should have the effect produced in cities below
and east of US, of enhancing the value of prop
erty all over the real business portion of the
city, but no such effect has as yet been noticed
on property on upper Third street, or on the
streets between Third and Seventh, or the
cross streets from the river to Seventh street,
except perhaps on jackson street, on which a
number of sales have been made of late at en-
HANGED prices. Lots on Fourth, Seventh and
Jackson streets are bringing from $40 to $40
per front foot; and on upper Third street
from $75 to 800 per front foot. The want OF
hotel on upper Third street or Middle Town
is severe drawback to any advance OF price
in that portion of the city.
Vacant lots, suitable for residences, 90 not
seem to be in much demand on account OF the
scarcity of lumber; and farming lands seem to
be entirely neglected. Compared to the price
of gold and articles of general merchandise,
real estate has made no corresponding adj
vance. Outside lots sold of late have
resulted favorably to purchasers. and any
one that can afford to hold cannot but re-
alize handsome profit on theirI investment.
But in fact there are as yet very few sales
made for speculative purpose; but mostly to
actual occupants, or for permanent investment.
We are informed by Messrs. Morgan and Nc
Cloud, real estate dealers, that of $4,000
worth of property sold by them this season,
the sales have been confined entirely. to resi-
dents of this city or State. This is readily &C
counted for by the low water in the Mississip-
pi and the want of Railroads, preventing our
usual summer visitors from coming up this
season. When however we again have rains
and our usual stage of water in the river, and
our railroad system begins to be developed,
we confidently look forward to a healthy and
permanent improvement in prices of property
in st. Paul and vicinity. Meanwhile those
who invest at the present low prices will reap
the benefit of the future enhanced values and
many now despised "corner" which now
looms up, rocky pile, will prove "a pile
of ricks" to the lucky owner.

FROM THE NoErH.-Joseph Anderson,
ESQ.,, returned last week from survey of the
road through from Crow Wing to Superior
City with view to opening up new route,
the repairs necessary, &C. Mr.. Anderson was
very favorably impressed with the country
over which he travelled, especially that
from Lake Mile Lac to Lake Superior. He
states that he never saw finer crops of oats,
wheat and corn. Oats he thinks will average
from 40 to SO bushels to the acre; wheat 20,
and the corn as promising a. any he ever saw
IN Ohio. The farmers have not suffered from
v,nt Of rain, and the weather during the en-.
t,re summer has been delightful

FROM LAKE SUPERIOR. -Messrs. Banning
and Smith reached home the 31st ult from a
visit to Superior City. They visited Lake su-
perior on business connected with the interests
of the st. Paul and Superior Railroad. They
brought with them fine specimen of slate Ia
ken from ledge near the Falls on the st. Louis
River. 1t is of excellent quality and well
adapted either for roofing or school states and
pencils, being better for the latter use than any
for sale in this city. They represent the sup
ply as inexhaustible, and of as good quality
as that they brought with him.

FATAL AooIDRNr.-Mrs. Mullarky, sixty

five years old, whose residence Is at the corner
of Eighth and Minnesota streets. was discov-
cred Monday morning lying under the bluff
on the middle levee, opposite the Emmert
House, MORALLY hurt by having fallen fromthe
top to the bottom of the bluff, at that point
about eighty or ninety feet high, and half way
perpendicular descent. A woman living in
the neighborhood saw what she now believes
to have been Mrs. Mullarky sitting on the edge
of the bluff, about midnight, and saw her fall
over, but was too much frightened to go out
and give an alarm before morning. Mrs. Null
larky was visited on Sunday by her daughter,
residing some distance from the city, who
that her mother has been for nine years partly
deranged. 1t is supposed that Mrs. M. wan
dered from her home late in the evening, while
under an attack of insanity, and accidentally
fell over the bluff. 1t was reported last even
ing that she was already dead. From the first,
no hope could be entertained of her recover.
