NsHrs Editors; We have enjoyed one Of
the mildest and most agreeable winters that
could be imagined. The lowest range of the
mercury has been twenty degrees below zero,
which was one morning in December, when
the Mississippi closed, since which we have
had but few snow storms; In fact, during the
month Of January the sun shoue bright
every day.
Business has mol been over brisk during
the winterj In fact, the farmers have been
running on the economical, owing to the
low price offered for their produce. The
wheat crop Of last year was Of rather an
inferior quality, but little Of Il ranking as
number one.
During the past four months the farmers
have been giving considerable attention to

HusBASDRr, which resulted last week In the
organization Of the State Grange Of Mime.

sprlnglng up In all parts OF the State, and
the membership ls rapidly increasing. spe-
cial deputies, well skilled In the business Of
organizing, are actively engaged In the work,
and are now pushing their way Into Illinois,
Iowa and Wisconsin, and the prospects nre
that by the first Of May, State Oranges will
be established In each Of these States. Where.
ever the work is understood Il is sure TO And
favor, being an institution long needed by
the farmers throughout the entire country,
Our wise Legislators have nearly completed
their labors for this session. The most i'm.
portant business they have accomplished has
been visit TO the Wisconsin Legislature,
but from tho complaints made by the Wis.

that State Is by no means al agreeable bill
TO settle. These wholesale sprees Of our
great neu 80 against the grain Of those who
cannot participate, and yet have TO contribute
to defray the expense. An attempt is being
made TO remove the State capital from ST.
Paul to a point some enc hundred miles
west Of the Mlsasslppi, where there Is plenty
Of vacant land.
Female suffrage has also been freely dc.
bated In our Legislature, but gets the cold
shoulder as yet; OF course this will come
about In due time. II Is q strong argument
| to say that Intelligent, well educated women
are full as competent to cast votes as igno.
rant foreigners and illiterate colored men.
The subject Of paying of the State rail-
road bonds has been and ls now a subject in
tcrcsting the people Of this State, and Il is
very evident the 500, 900 acres Of State lands
will be turned over for this purpose. This
will be an easy way Of clearing up the debt
without adding to our taxes.

The hotels continue crowded with

purpose to move very cautiously In such
matters, many of them will soon wear the

SECRETARY STEWART.
The indications last night pointed to strong
opposition In the Senate to compliance with
President Grants recommendation Of the re-
peal Of the law forblddlng an importer to
hold the office Of Secretary Of the Treasury.
The opponents Of the repeal allege Its venera.
BILE age and Its general propriety as reasons
for declining to abrogate Ii In Mr.. stewart's
favor. More or lees Of Grants friends, how.
ever, believe that opposition to having sc
decided free trader In the Treasury as Mr.

indisposition to comply with Grants re-
quest.
SECRETARY BoRIB.
It Is generally thought to-day that Mr.
Borie will decline the Navy Department

glee. They evidently want no man In the
Cabinet identified at any time of his life
with the great trans-marne commercial

DR.. Sharpe, now postmaster of Richmond,
Va, is believed to be the gentleman whom
Gen. Grant designs appointing United States
Marshal Of this District. He is the Presi-

q man of high character. As postmaster Of
Richmond, he has the universal regard of
that community, which is guarantee of his
entire acceptability to the people Of the Dis
