Minnesota Valley Railroad.

The information contained in the fol-
lowing article, respecting the plans of the
Minnesota Valley Railroad Company. will
be news to majority of the people of St.
Paul, aud we hope to the company. 1t is
taken from the LIE Sueur Statesman of
the Oath:
We learn from Mr.. Fish, Chief Engineer of
the above named road, that there are strong
probabilities that this Company will have to
build Its own road from Mendoza to st, Paul.
as the Central Company are disposed to mon.
OpOlize the advantages of joint construction
of that portion of their road. In case the Val.
ley Company build separate track, they will
not cross the Mississippi River at all. but erect
their depot buildings in West st. Paul, at the
foot OF the present bridge. By running down
on this side the river the Company can get o
much easier grade and the separate branch
will not cost near as much as the half of the
Central Companys branch.
Besides, the danger of crossing the bridge
will be avoided, the expenses of keeping it ia
good repair and the running time between st.
Paul aud Mendoza will be decidenly in fayer of
the Valley road. The only Inconvenience that
will result from this new arrangement is tenn.
porary one in delaying the completion of the
road farther than Shakopee the present year,
instead of Belle PLANE.
A large force of hands are now at work be-
tween Mendoza and Shakopee, and the financial
condition of the Company is excellent. The
Company have ample funds to build 30 miles of
road and stock it without mourning dolla RS
Indebtedness on the road bed or drawing upon
their grant of lands.

Secret Rebel History.

The New York Times of the 10th pub
fishes a statement of late Confederate
official as to the military and financial con-
dition of the Confederacy before its final
dissolution, as to the jealousies and back
billings among the chief conspirators, as to
DA71s's influence or lack of influence, as to
the condition of the rebel exchequer
abroad, as to the appalling suddenness of
the calamity which overlook the rebel
cause, and as to sundry points of interest
viewed from Southern standpoint. The
Confederate military strength (before the
surrender of Richmond) east of the Mis-
sissippi was about 100000 men, all told,
according to this authority. DAVIS and
his fellow fugitives had but 100000 in
their wallets on leaving the rebel capital,
and this sum was mainly in silver, which,
by this writer's showing, accounts for its
bulk. The principal portion Of the rebel
treasure, it seems, was in foreign hands
fact which at least shows that, in spite of
all the buster and brag to the contrary,
the necessity of an early flight had been
anticipated, and in part provided for, a
considerable time before the military sur
render.

Death Of Hon. jeremiah Clemens.

Hon. JERE. CLEMENS formerly United
States Senator from Alabama, died at
Huntsville, on the 21st inst, of conges-
ton of the lungs. He was born at Hunts
vile, Dec. %, 1914, was graduated at
Lagrange College, and commenced the
practice of Law in 1884. He held the Of
fee of United States District Attorney
and was elected to the Legislature for
several terms. During the Texan war he
was Lieutenant Colonel of a regiment,
and volunteering in the war between the
United States and, Mexico, he was appoint
ed Major of the 18th United States infan
try and soon after promoted to Lieutenant
Colonel. In 1S49 he was elected to the
United States Senate to fill the unexpired
term of Hon. Dixon d. LEWIS, and at its
close retired to private life, devoting him.
self to literary pursuits He was ardent
in his attachment to the Union before the
outbreak of the rebellion, and maintained
his principles during the whole contest,
faithful among the faithless found, he
rejoiced at the overthrow of the confeder-
acy, and was expected to take a promin-
ent part in the future councils of his ma
tive State. ..-.

Gen. Sherman,s Letter.

The letter of Gen. SHERMAN in our tele-
graphic columns is scorcher to the in-
famous STANTON and the whole crew OF
Falstaffian non-combattants, now yelping
at bis heels. 1t was private letter to a
friend, and its publication may have been
ill-advised, but it is nevertheless due to
SHERMAN that its contents should be made
known to the public. On receiving Sec
rotary STATIONS structures on his negotia-
tons with JOHNSTON, he wrote full ex-
planetary letter from Raleigh, which he
requested might be given the same pub.
licity as the Secretary's bulletin, but this
letter has thus far been suppressed, for no
other reason than because its publication
would have exposed STANroN's injustice
Some may argue that it would have been
more dignified to remain silent, as Gen.
MCCLELLAN did, when STANTON and HAL
LICK were endeavoring to crush him, but
we are glad SHERMAN has adopted q differ
ent course. He means to show these gen.
tlemen that bis motives and his reputation
cannot be assaulted with impunity, and
public opinion among the masses OF bis
countrymen will fully sustain him.

Foreign Immigration.

It is stated that the arrivals at New York
of foreign immigrants average nearly a
thousand daily. The Milwaukee Ne'os
says the arrivals in that city the present
week will not be less than five hundred.
They come principally from Germany, Ire
land, Norway, and England. The greater
portion Of them bring supply of comfort
able clothing and money enough to buy a
farm. The Irish Times, of recent date,
says:
We believe that when peace ensues between
the belligerents in America, the emigration
which has hitherto taken place, compared with
what will certainly ensue will be as the leak
ace of a weir to the opening of the sluice.
There is not city. town or hamlet in Ireland
in which large proportion of the able bodied
population is not determined to emigrate the
moment peace Is made.

Puritan Intolerance.

A short time ago we noticed an act of
the Massachusetts, Legislature excluding
any dealer in liquors from the jury box,
and another act prohibiting any exhibitions
calculated to bring the negro into disre-
pute. We now have an account Of q re.
cent meeting of the school committee at
Cambridge, at which a resolution was
adopted prohibiting, in the schools under
their charge, the further use of HnLARDs
readers, in order to express &C. the sense of
the disapprobation of this board of the
course pursued by their arthor [Hon. Gzo
s. HnLARDl toward the rebellion and its
leaders" Mr.. HILLARD, upon learning of
their action, addressed a letter to his pub
fishers repelling the imputations upon his
patriotism, and challenging any one to
name a single disloyal word ever spoken
or written by Him. This letter, afterward
submitted to the committee, so put them To
shame that they fastened to rescind their
action at previous meeting.

How and Where the Troops are 70 10
Mustered Out.

Col. AvERuL has received the genera
order prescribing the regulations for mus
tering out and paying the troops that are
to be discharged from service Inc reg
ments are to be mustered out IN the var
GUS military divisions where they are 10"
serving, and then forwarded WIN ar,ns'
colors and necessary equipage, to Fort
Smelling for payment. The muster-rolls,
records, &C., are to be forwarded under
the snecial charge of a responsible officer
Of the regiment to the State rendezvous;
where payment is to be made, and turned
over to the chief mastering officer or his
assistant at that place. This officer is to
be reported to, and take control of the
regiments, but the regimental officers are
to keep the men together, and will be held
accountable for their discipline. In re-
gard to payment, &C., we quote from the
order: ,r,.s.as ~ .a0g
In preparing the muster-eut rolls, corps, de-
partment, division and brigade commanders
will hold regimental officers to strict accoun-
liability in order TO insure accurate and COM
plete records ofthe enlisted MEN, and the bet
ter to establish the just claims of the non-com.
missioned officers and privates who have been
wounded or of the representations Of those
who have died of disease or wounds, or been
killed in battle.
Paymasters viii be designated by the Pay
Department to meet regiments at the designa.
ted State rendezvous, and there make final
payments, obtaining for that purpose the rolls
from the mastering officer thereat. While the
troops are awaiting payment, supplies will be
furnished by the respective supply departments
on the usual acquisitions and returns, counter
signed by the chief mastering officer or his as
eistant. Until after payment and final dis
charge of the troops the chief mastering off.
Ger win look to their being kept together and
under discipline. '... ..e XXX.
Tie chief mastering officer in each State
is to take possession of all the regimental
and company records and the colors of the
respective regiments, and hold them sub
ject to the orders Of the Adjutant General
of the army; the arms and other public
property are to be turned over to the Sup
ply Department.
The work of preparing the records, mus
tering out and payment, will require vast
amount of labor. 1t is thought month
may elapse before the troops arrive home,
and another month before they are finally
paid and discharged. Col. AvERnL will
make every effort to expedite the business
that deyolves upon him.
