Lumber Operations o., the ST. croix.

The Polk County Press says tho
present winter has been of the most ia
vorable fsr numbering operations ever
known in the Northwest. The weather
has been mild, giving the men a chance
10 work with comfort, and the snow has
fallen TO proper depth for making the
logging roads good and keeping them so
during tho season. Almost every team
has done splendid work, and ii there is
wafer in the Spring, logs will come in
lively. Every town on the river has nu-
merous lumber firms operating, and all
report a successful winters work. Good
judges tell US that it is not an over drawn
estimate 10 put down the amount of logs
cut on tho St. Croix River AMI its tri5u
laries during the past winter at 200 .00O,-
900 feet.

The Tenure of omce Question.

Congress is still ngitatcd with this
troublesome law, and it is Impossible 10
say when it will end. From tia St.
Paul Press of the 3lst ult. we learn that
the House yesterday refused to recede
from its dissgr cement with TIE Senate
on the Tenure of Office bill by vote OF
loo to 90. a motion to agree TO a
committee of conference was adopted,
and Messrs. B. F. Butler, G. G. Wash.
burn and J. A. Bingham'wele appoint
ed on the part of the House. The
Speaker Of the House was not so liberal
to the minority in the selection of the
committee as was the presiding officer
OF the Senate. The joint committee
consists of four opposed, and two in ia
vor Of the Senate amendments. Grimes,
Butler AMI Washbarn, we ap2rehend,
will not readily give up their position,
while Trumbul and Bingham are natur-
ally expected 10 lie firm in defense of
their views. Tired as the country is Of
this dead lock, the composition of tilis
committee does not seem to favor an
early adjustment oe the differences of the
question IN dispute.

Easter SerriCeS.

The Easter services at Calvary church
were very interesting and instructive,
and were witnessed by as many of our
citizens as could well find room at that
place of worship. The usual service
was held N the morning, and in the
evening Rev. Mr.. PEABODY delivered n
discourse, after which lie conducted the
communion service.
The choir, under the direction Of G..
II Nichols, is very great attraction,
and acquitted itself creditabIy on this &C
casion. The music selected was very
iine-the anthem "Christ our Pass
over" being particularly so.
We arc always glad TO chronicle
the success Of all worthy public institu
tons, especially where our community is
interested, and it is with pleasure That
we note the evident prosperity of this
Calvary Church society. May it multi
ply in numbers, and grow in grace and
worldly goods, so that soon we may see
another spire rising in our midst to give
character and responsibility to the town.
