FREIGHT TARIFF

The principal class of freigh,s in which
our shippers are interested is merchan
disc, the tariff on which, from Dubuque
u all points up to Prairie du Chen, is
Is cents per cwt.. and on intermediate
points from there up to Winona 20 cents
per cwt., and on intermediate points up
to Alma % cents per cwt., and on inter
mediate points to Red Wing 30 cents per
cwt., and to all points above there 35
cents per cwt.
From st. Paul 10 St. Louis 25 cents
per cwt. for produce and 35 cents per
cwt. for merchandise, and so cents per
barrel for flour.
As considerable wheat and -four is
shipped partly by river and partly by rail
to Milwaukee and Chicago, we give the
rates sometime since agreed upon in
Chicago: From Prescott, Hastings, St.
Paul, Hudson and Saltwater, Is cents.
On flour from all points above Winona,
go cents per barrel.
II will be seen that the freight on -four
and wheat has been reduced from what
the rates were at the opening of naviga-
ton last spring.

Final Decision.

The case of the State ex rel P. V.
WISE, vs.. j. G. BuTToN before the Su-
preme Court, has been finally decided in
favor of Mr.. .BurroN. The court rem
dered decision favorable TO Mr.. BurroN
some time ago, but Mr.. WISE not salts
fed, brought up some other legal point
and continued tho contest. In the State
JonrnaL we observe that the decision of
the Supreme Court is again adversely to
him, and the strife at last ended. Mr..
Burton can now enjoy the honors and
emolumeuts of District Attorney undis
turbed, while Mr.. WISE has the sublime
satisfaction of paying the costs of the
suit and remaining in that post of hon.
or, private station, yet little longer.
