From the London Times, April 9th.
The. London Times on Mr.
Motley's appointment.

Mr.. Motley will come to country which
he knows, and where he is well known
He is no stranger in Europe, like many
of the home bred political men of the
United States, who first form a real &C
quaintance with the Old World when
they visit it in an official capacity. Mr.
| Motley's feelings toward England are, no
doubt, those of most educated Americans.
A man in whom the historical sentiment
is strong, and large part of whose life
has been spent in investigating the past,
can badly fail to be in some sort we'll
disposed to the old country. This tend
ency is naturally strengthened by knowl-
edge of English society, and the remem-
brance of many cordial friendships. Mr.
Motley's reputation as a distinguished
man of letters, no less than his diploma
tic position, will insure him hearty well
come In this country nor is there any
type of Minister whom we would receive
more gladly than the historian and the
scholar, Mr. Motley, however, would be
the first to admit that in him we must
recognize one who has decided opinions
on the matters in dispute between us and
the Americans Whatever may be his
social or historical prepossessions, he is,
as far as actual politics are concerned,
a thorough representative of the North.
ern Republicans AS the intentions of
President Grants Government are as yet
secret, even if any have been formed, it
is useless to speculate upon the turn of
affairs. The Convention which has been
concluded between the two countries
awaits the decision OF the new President
and the Senate, which have not yet form
ally decided upon it. Surprising it to be
set aside, and negotiations to be renewed
at some future time, we may expect to
find in Mr.. Motley an earnest and uncom-
promising supporter of the opinions which
are said to be dominant among his coun-
trymen. In the matter of the Alabama
claims his principles and conduct are not
likely to be alleged by any weakness for
US. 'a
We have nothing to complain of in this
and are, indeed, disposed to prefer deal
ing with nation through Minister who
represents its prevailing impulses Such a
man may be more harsh and exacting
in negotiation, but when the business
is concluded there is at least the satisfac-
ton that it is likely to prove real set
Element. In other respects Mr.. Motley
will probably prove Minister of an ord
er very unlike Reyerday johnson. We
shall lose genial and indefatigable
speechmaker, but shall gain in exchange
gentleman who will be understood on
both sides OF the ocean to say only what
the great mass of his countrymen really
means.

Minnesota Correspondence.


Mr. ED1roR:-As not only the farmer,
but all branches of trade and COM
merce are interested in the doings of the
farming community every where, I doubt
not that few items from this section of
our commonwealth will be of interest.
Whiteyou are wading in water or sticking
in mud, we are rubbing our eyes from the
effects Of the dust that flies in clouds
from every passing carriage, or is swept
in eddies by every puff of wind. Spring
is about twenty days later than last year,
that is, if we have any spring here; which
I have not been able to see in two years
the usual harbingers of its advent are I'M
known. No song of the early birds,
no croaking of the inmates of the lake
or marsh, no soft spring breezes, no early
budding of the willow, but cold and
bleak to-day, the trader is muffled in
furs and robes; to morrow, he seeks cool
place IN summer garments. Such is the
change from winter to summer, and spring
is left out of the question. Farmers are
quite well along, putting their wheat into
the soil and large breadth is being sown.
The weather is too dry, however, as there
have been only few showers, of few

every indication of thunder shower,

| AS stated in previous letter, wheat
is being shipped to Europe by way OF
New Orleans, and by the time new crop
is produced, the experiment will have
proved a success or failure. In the event
of q success, it will be beneficial to the
farmers of Wisconsin, and Illinois, and
MICHIGAN, for the reason, that Minnesota
produces so said superior wheat, which
is now shipped to Milwaukee and Chi
cago and if sent south, there will be a
greater demand, and more room in those
cities for wheat raised in the respective
states U.s., 9t#5 .gs.F. 4
The contractors of the Superior r. r.

cieved a fine reception and was seranaded
on his return from Washington. He is
spoken of as candidate for governor
and if nominated will receive greater
number of votes than any other man in

and certain independence and manli-
ness that makes him popular with the
masses There is already large immi-

Cape Cod Women.

NOWuoTc else IN all new England Will
one see SO high an average of female beau
ty of figure and hair and skin, as among
the young girls of one of the peninsular
towns on Sunday, and in no place is the
change produced by the lapse of years,
from twenty to thirty SO painful and OBJ
vlous. For the rounded, complete mat
ronly beauty of the second span of married
life, one may look without seeing single
instance. The cause of this is not far off,
and suggests itself at once, to one who
sees the congregations of women, with
here and there an old sick man among
them, and then skip all the years Of
active life down to early childhood before
he finds the male sex again represented.
For 1t is true that in the fishing season
there are no men or boys on the shore,and
it you go among the group of bright,
happy girls who do not remember the
cloud that hangs above them, you will
find that nine out often of them look for
ward to union with one who is now
away, and who expects to spend his life
fishing in the summer and coastipg in the
winter. Now, imagine one of them sit
ting IN her little home two years married.
with her baby in the cradle, and the
northeaster bowling without. She knows
too well that at that moment he may be
struggling in the breakers while the
Highland light that she can see, glares
down pitiless upon his agony; for she
has only to climb spur of land behind
her house to sec the skeleton of ship
from which the cruel waves tore the des-
pcrate hand hold months ago, and left
the husband and father to sink in sight
of his own home, without friend to aid.
The grave stones will not let her stand
between them, even for moment, for
they tell her how in single night, sixty
seven women of one little town were left
widowed and desolate. If she will stay
In her house and shut out the suggestions

her forehead, and cast glance out upon
the waters, over which she has since wait
ed for his return. When q vessel arrives
she hurries to the landing, and nothing
doubling for the long disappointment,
waits and watches to the end. How little
