LETTER FROM TRENTON.
prospects Qftl,e .P1ace-Its Trade
and s3 Wants.

Ed. JoURSAL.--I have sometimes thought
that you had forgotten there is such a place in
Pierce Co. as Ire nton. but perhaps it is the
fault ofus who live here, in not keeping you
better posted.
will tell you Of some of our wants. In
the first place. We want well stocked store
here, so that We win not be compelled to go
TO Red Wing for all the goods We buy. and
with all we have to sell.
Last fall, we had TO take all our wheat 10
Red Wing, at o cost of from 5 to 10 els. per
bushel, never less than cents. One farmer
here had 500 bushels. which he sold TO
Red Wing buyer. 5 cents Per iushel below
the market price. and delivered it Mt the land
ing here for we have good landing. just 38
miles above Red Wing. Another man paid
go for taxing 400 bushels 10 Red Wing. be-
sides the loss of his own time. The rest Of
the farmers here hauled their wheat them
selves, paying 90 per trip for frrriage.
There is large amount of trade goes from
the centsf of our County to Red Wing
which would stop here if it could be accom-
modated. Tie consequence is. We are taking
our capital to help bnild up
Minnesota, where it it lost to us. Aside from
this we foss great amount Of tine in going
there and returning.
Now in the winter we hare no place to sell
or wood except Red Wing. unless we bank
it, and sell to the boats in the Summer, and
it does not pay farmer to neglect his farm
to sell 90 or so cords of wood, and so he has
to haul it to Red Wing for want of market
here.
We do think it only wants to be known
among business men that thore is such an
opening here and some one would quickly
supply tile want.
Lands here have raised from 90 TO sc per
acre since last fall. and there is q great de-
mand for timber land. You will see that
our trade is Of coed deal Of Importance from
the fact that merchants of Red Wing have
raised 5000 to build road. across the is
land, two miles long. with a ferry at each
end. Now why are they idoins all this
Because our trade will pay them back again.
this being the river cenler Of the County, and
the only place 10 cross into Minnesota. ex-
cept at Hastings.
Now why not keep this large trade in our
own County, and create market here for our
surplus products. We have plenty of the
best kind of hard wood, Walnut, butternut,
DC, suitable fer manufacturing purposes, and
easy OF access.
it seems as il the facts only needed to be
known, to bring capital here. which would
find very remunerative investment, and add
much to the prosperity of thu and adjoining
towns. 4. II. B.

on the 10Th inst.

and whoever did so subscribe nv name
thereto, did it without any authority
whatever from mo or my knowledge or
consent.
All the statements, after that of the
election Of Delegates to attend the Ju-
dicial Convention, are erroneous.
The following is n correct statement Of
the action Of the Convention upon the
resolution and substitute
DR.. Andrews offered the resolution as
published.
Mr.. Redman moved to amend, by in
structing tue delegates 10 support tho
strongest man.
To this Mr.. White objected, for the
reason that it had been agreed that the
delegates of Pierce and st. Croix coua-
ties should support Fl. L. Humphrey if
he was the strongest man, and requested
his friends to allow the first part of DIR.
Andrews resolution to remain, and
amend the latter part to correspond with
such agreement.
This was not accepted by Doctor An
drews. a.
Mr.. Redman tLcn Uttered the subs;i.

was passed by large majority.

The Judicial Convention.

The Judicial Convention held at Ne
nominee on the 18th inst, was very
largely attended from all parts of the
Circuit. There was, of course, intense
desire for success among the friends Of
each candidate, but good feeling and Per-
feet courtesy prevailed.
After Pierce Co. had become united
for Mr.. HUMPHREr, st Croix and Pierce,
IL votes, were for him, while Chippewa,
Eau Claire and Pepin, Is votes, were
for Mr.. BARNES.
1t was left for Dunn Co. TO make the
nomination, and i was gratifying fact,
that her delegation was composed of the
best men of the County. They voted
for Mr.. HUMPHREY, not from any lack
of regard for Mr.. BARNES, but because
they believed Mr.. HUMPHREY to lie his
equal in every qualification for the office,
and personally the strongest msn. We
never saw 50 important Convention
break up with so littIo bitter feeling.
The entire Union press Of The Cir
cult was represented, and We enjoyed the
pleasure Of meeting many old acquain-
tances, and making some new ones
Every County, except Pierce, was rep
resented one or more ex-member of
the Legislature.

conduct of your paper. 49,
Americans, as high minded patriots,
owe sacred, paramount duty to their
country, supreme to all dual empire and
all its asurpation faithite, political and

America cut loose from one dual of
monarchy, and is only popular empire
by retaining the other, and is therefore
that much less a free prlncipled SELF gor-
eminent. IS
Now there is no cause at all of an.
tagonism, luminosity and enmily be

the principled free minds of the last,
that is altogether another. higher and no.

sublimest model. rs
The mighty blessing under Divine
Providence that dispsnses al the media
