RED RIVER ANNEXATION,

On Saturday last President Grant re-
ceiyed Mr.. ODonohue, ex-secretary of the
late provisional government of Manitoba,
who is the bearer Of memorial Of the peo-
pie Of that country to the United States
government asking its good offices in OBJ
tanning relief from the exactions and griev-
ances inflicted upon them by the English
officials. The memorial sets forth that not
a single pledge given by the English and
Canadian authorities to the provisional
government has been kept, and that the
only hope of the people for relief from the
intolerable expressions under which they
labor is in independence or annexation to
the United States Mr. ODonohue claims
that the annexation movement has assumed
formidable proportions in several British
provinces, especially In British Columbia
Nova Scotia and Prince Edwards Island
and that it only requires encouragement on
the part Of the United States government,
to make this policy felt throughout the do
miniou of Canada.

CONDITION OF THE CHIPPEWA INDIANS

Major 3 \. Clark, Agent for several OF the Indian
reservations of Minnesota IN private letter to General
Eaton Commissioner of Education, gives the partcu
lars OF his trip of the Chippewa reservations
He says:
No agent has ever visited them before, and they
we'll nigh discouraged Their treaty made
five years ago. Eight hundred dollars ear has been
appropriated for farming Not foot of land has been
cleared, seed provided, tools furnished. far
mer went up there, stayed day two the
reservation, came part way back and hired to a
sawmiil. Another farmer employed for or
years who has never been within hundred and
fifty miles of the reservation. In relation the edu-
caona facilities enjoyed by these Indians, he says
"A school house erected aDout three years ago,
and the treaty SSOO year has been appropria-
ted sustain the school. School was taught there
about days last summer. found the school house
with every window missing, part of the floor ripped up
and gOne the roof broken by fallen tree the
benches, if there were any, carried away. Nothing
left but bare walls teacher appointed last fall,
found keeping trading post forty miles from the
Seryation lie had no books and can scarcely speak
English
We clip the above from the St. Paul Pi-
0neer. The management of the Indian de-
partment seems to have been somewhat GU
rlous, as far as the Indians around Lake
Superior are concerned. Could not Gen.
Parker spare few hours of his valuable
time to look after his subordnates and
compel them to attend to their business, in
lieu of meddling with politics and railroads.

VIRTUAL DEFEAT OF THE ST. CRoIx SUPERIOR
LAND GRANT BILL

The bill for the extension of this land
grant came up in the House on Thursday,
and after lively debate in which the bill
was ably advocated by Messrs. Washburn
of Wis, Wilson and Wilkinson OF Mimi.
and Kelly of Penn, it was recommitted to
the Committee on Public Lands for amend
ment, by vote of 102 to 84. This virtu-
ally kills the bill, as there is no hope that
it will come up again during the session
The people of Northern Wisconsin are
deeply disappointed at the result, and
their only hope for the bill is in the justice
of the next Congress.

the cars were filed and run into the country to be

CATASTROPHE on THE MISSISSIPPI On
the 2Sth the steamer w. Il. Arthur, one of
the finest crafts on the Mississippi river,
exploded her boilers, killing sixty of her
passengers and crew and severely injnring
many others. The frequency of similar
disasters on Western waters Shows either
incompetency in officers or criminal care
lessness in the construction Of boilers and
calls for additional Congressional legisla-
ton on the subject. Life is of little value
among Mississippi boatmen; but when pas
sengers are sacrificed by the score the
travelling public is excnsable in entering its
protest.

DULUTH, MINI, JAM 26th, 1871.
Ed TINES: Your correspondent having just left the
Clark House where the assembled wisdom of the State
is vet in conclave, concludes to write. True to time
the Especial" arrival with 175 excursionsts all told
all of which except Especial guests" made themselves
at home at the Clark House, and mostly commenced
the serious labors of the occasion by proceeding to
survey the situation. All at this hour enjoying

as though the terrible storm Z? of last week had not
demoralized them. Indeed " Breakwater' the
brain has completely got hold of the ring" that
we are led believe that three days blow, would
place towr-on solid basis
We hardly believe however that all the excursion
lists will be prepared to ego it blind" We note
among them good and true" who would
not be led to sign memorial to Congress that would
be disgrace to a ten year old school boy. But we
do presume that they a majority will condemn the
entry, call Rice's point dock "a Folly" pronounce
Superior humbug, eulogse the mind that conceived,
and the power that created that mpregnabe barrier
the 'Breakwater," against which the pillows of Lake
Superior thundered in vain during the severest Hur-
ricane' (?) ever known.
But never will Duluth fully enter on her career of
prosperity until her citizens pull off their and
to work in earnest. The Breakwater and canal as
practical harbors will be failures-but not Duluth
With the completion of the government works at the
St Louis entry and the n. p docks in st. Louis bay
where is the only harJor of which Duluth can boast
and good enough for any city, expect to see
continued prosperity. Duluth cannot nor will not
continue prosper until she stops trying to break
down every one, and everything that does not
by, and depend on the construction of an outside
harbor, even the canal.
We wish the citizens of your town would cut loose
from musty politicians and depend more on muscle
If then you can't speculate YOU will at least deserve
the prosperity which will surely come the reward
of honest endeavor. More anon. J.

No section of the world has been
more cursed with so-called "mining
experts" than our young State Of Ne
yada. In the early days of the Com
stock it was a simple matter to find
plenty of these humbugs, and the
single ledge, many ledge or no ledge
theory was proven by them In Court
with equal facility. In the first OF the
White Pine excitement, "experts "
pronounced Treasure Hill one vast
bed of solid horn silver, while Others
said the Eberhardt and one or two
other little deposits were all there was
I'm IL. Some said there was no regu-
larity to the thing, and yet others
fnllv as erudite and experienced,
boldly declared that a true fssure vein
of great size and depth ran north and
south directly through the centre and
extent of the hill. In some instances,
however, the opinion Of a really COM
petent expert is good to have, and
perhaps really important In the work
ing and development Of mine, or the
transfer from one party to another ;
vel even then the chance for interested
humbugpery is excellent, aud only
real established aud acknowledged
merit should be consulted or employed.
On this subject the New York Engi-
nesrinq and Mining Journal makes the
following just remarks:
"The person selected to examine q
mine should be a mining engineer, ac-
quainted with the mining laws, Gus
toms, history and economical condi-
lions Of the country, and skillfnl, not
merely In mlne-engineering, but in
the examination and criticism of
mines, which Is q totally different
branch OF the profession. The prac-
tice Of sending chemists, biologists,
naturalists, military heroes, or even
mining captains, to perform this diti-
cult work, has borne much miSchleV-
Gus fruit. Not five per cent. even Of
the educated mining engineers have
had enough Of the peculiar experience
required to enable them to judge OF
new enterprises safely. Yet IN nu-
merous cases the expert who figures
in the company's prospectus Is not a
mining engineer, not even a scientific
man In any sense, but n charlatan or a
tool. Now the employment of such
men Is disgraceful and i~nexcusable.
There are engineers, justly famous In
this particular speciality and no
honest company needs to put up with
tho verdict of unknown or incOmpe-
tent judges"
