We learn from D. A. Dickinson
Esq.,, who has just returned from Du-
luth, something Of It's status which is
reliable. He says the town is hardly
half as large as Mankato, and mainly
built Of wood. There is good hotel
maintained; mainly b, exeursionists,
but aside from. the railroad business
and through freight but little thrift
could be seen. The country adjacent
is barren, and cannot be made tributary
to the growth of the town. It, sue
cess is not as yet assured.-Mankato

articles and sketches, make up the bal.
anee~ of the table Of contents. Scrib-
ncr 4 Co., publishers, New York.
The August number Of the Eclec-
