merly bean private practice in that
party-we mean President murder

the Inauguration of Wade for Presi

Letter from Fair Point, Goodhue Co
MINI.

Mr.. J. B. Lynn, formerly of this
County, writes us from the above
place in Minnesota, March LIST, to
which part he went in December last.
He reports very severe winter, even
| to those who have resided there for
years. The Mercury stood much of
the time at 400 below zero. That re>
gion has been settled dozen years.
Railroads are making great changes,
especially in raising the price of
lands. In single month a farm had
raised from 81, 900 up to SO, 900, which
Is but one of many cases of specula>
ton. Wild lands are advancing in
proportion, and the credit is 10 be
given to the railroads. He says Go
yer, | have often thought of the clear
arguments which you wrote and
printed year ago concerning the
profits of railroads and of how it pays
for land holders TO tax themselves

Blue RIVER VALLEY r. R-An
act OF the legislature authorizes the
towns of Blue River valley to vote
aid for a branch railroad from some
point on the line ot the Milwaukee
and ST. Paul road il Grant County
TO Monttort, on the old Military
road. The route, direction and ter
mlnous OF this road are To be here
after settled, We have always held
that Dubuque may be reached and
have Il Milwaukee connection very
much cheaper by branch road leads
ing south west from Blue River Sta
ton by way OF Monttord, Fennimorc,
Lancaster and Potosi, than bv any
other route ever dreamed of. and
that such route would be 'Ieveller
and more direct in line, thcref re, to
be ever q preferred route on travel
and business. The grade ia easy to
the summit at Monttort, thence upon
a continuous divided ridge to Potosi,
and thence by imperceptible descent
to the river in the direction of Dun.

Popularity of the Lacrosse Democrat.

Pomeroys LACROSSE Democrat is
now by far the most popular demo-
cratic paper in the United States,
having a weekly circulation alone of
10000, chiefly south it is true, but
alsc q greater circulation in the north
than any other democratic paper
He claims six times the circulation of
any other democratic paper in the U.
S. The only secret Of his remarka-
bic success consists in his manly adj.
vocacy of the true sentiments of his
party instead Of a sort of hypocritic
discrimination, He is no hypocrite
but an outspoken democrat, honestly
avowing his preference for the rebel
side OF all issues. Pomeroy scorns
all deceitful advocacy of any half,
way union measures : he would wipe
out the war debt by bold reputation;
the confederate debt and pension
list he would shoulder and so Of all
the real coiors of his party. He
avows that great majority of his
party hold to precisely bis senti-
ments, and cites the thousands OF
letters, names and post offices given
in prinGto prove all he claims. Scores
Of such letters appear in his weekly
paper, all these speaking the senti
ments OF the ultra and unreclaimcd
rebels of the south. His paper bears
every testimony of there being Il
party i'll the country able and deter
mined to control the next National
democratic convention and make the
candidate and platform just what
they would have them.

COUNTY JUDGEs-Tho legislature
enacted new law for compromising
county Judges. Tho County Super
visors are 10 fix upon a salary to DO
paid the Judge by the county, and
all executors and administrators
shall pay the expenses Of settling
their estates into the county treasury
at the following rates whore the
estate is valued ~ $1,000, then $40. 90
must be paid into the county treasu~
~ tor an estate worth $4,000, $50.
90 aud so on up TO $4,000, when
$1,000 must be paid and no inyento
ry or appraisal shall DO received by
the Judge until such foes are paid.
Hitherto the Judges have been paid
by fees. 1t il said that even in the
most popu,ous counties Of the state
the income of County Judges is not
above $1,000. while in majority ct
counties the incomes are not above
$3.50. In such counties as Grant.
Rock, Greene and other medium
counties the income OF adges is $500.
10 S6Oo. 1t is understood That Judge
McGonigaFs income would be about
5000 were ne exact in making collec.
tions. But considering his 'ackn,ss
as fee collector he probably doe,
not receive above 81 90, In this re.
spect the law will be an improve
ment Large estates must pay
more than small ones for the closing
M. Hitherto the cost was AS great
for settling up small estates as large
ones.

by his argument in the McCardle
case, and who is now talked of as
the probable successor to Doolittle

Western blood by residence there
since his graduation at the Harvard
Law Scnool. He is a strongly
built man, of medium height, with
enormous chest, big head, heavy
black hair, and frank, strongly
marked face. His manners have a
good deal of the Western free and
easy cut, and his politics are of the
extreme and out>spoken type. He
openly avowed his belief that the
McCardle case would go against him
and his desire thereupon that Con-
gress should re-organize the Su-

A New FASHION IN CHURCH
Sunday evening last, an amusing
little scene was witnessed by por.
ton of the audience at one of our
fashionable churches. While the
sermon was being delivered, lady
deliberately removed her hat, "

eighty air-pins. The raven locks
fell upon her shoulders, and then
people, instead of attending to the
sermon, looked for the next move
ment. It came in several quiet, sat-
isfactory, enjoying movements of the
comb down the back Of the head
and through the hair Instead Of at
tending to the sermon, people still
continued to watch the lady. The
hair was then gathered in both hands
dexterously retwisted, the comb in
serted, those seventy>fve hair.pins
(and it seemed as if they would nev>
