This makes . total for tho year, of
81, 49,, 100, and taking into account
the fact that but q comparatively small
proportion of the frauds committed
are discovered, the exhibit is truly a
serious one.
The Commissio':er report states
that in New York the amounts realized
by the government are mainly from
seizures, made for the most part on
board Of vessels, of goods imported
from foreign countries. The larger
suits against prominent firms of New
York originate with the examination
Of invoices. Smuggling in small arti.
cles is in that city also carried On to
considerable extent, amounting for the
last year to 100000.
The greatest difficulty experienced,
however, Is in preventing struggling
across the anadiau border. Snug
Cling At the southern ports is not in
proportion to the extent Of the impor-
tatious, owing mainly to the inaoces-
sible character of the coast.

The Development Of Minnesota.

We present her rate Of increase Of
population IS compared with other
states, enabling Us to form some idea.
as to how rapidly her fertile acres will
be brought into cultivation. Her
population in 1849, was 4,O5S in l8.
IS when admitted as state, $4,000 !;
in 1860 172,OOO; in 1866, O,0O0 I,
1870, 435, 900. Michigan, Illinois
and Indiana were each from tweQty to
twenty-eight years in reaching the
population obtained by Minnesota
from 1850 to 1860. Wisconsin in.
creased from 1860 to 1865 at the rate
Of 11.9O per cent: Minnesota, $3.50
per cent. From 1865, to 1868, three
and half years, Minnesota increased
1880 per cent against Wisoousiu's in
crease Of ll.90 per cent in five years.
Will Minnesota increase in population
from 1872 to 1900 as during the last
ten yearys! The last decade was
marked by the war and the "1ndian
Massacre" which seriously crippled
growth. These drawbacks viii not be-
long to the future, while 1900 will End
the state gridiroued by railroads. It
seems then that the above question
must have an affirmative answer, That
would give Us in 1900 . population Of
1884 900, or only 43 inhabitants to
the square mile, Eve less than in Illi-
nois. Certainly there can be no doubt
that at that tine she win have popula-
ton Of at least 1000, ,OOO.-Ec.

Mr.. Bennett, of the New York
Herald, occupied the prisoners dock
Of French court, short time ago,
The occasion was an outgrowth Of the
case of the man De Brimont, which
has figured extensively in the pr :ss
during the past few months. It will
be remembered that De Brimont mar
ried an American girl Of wealthy par
ents, who subsequently died, and that
be thereupon sued her father to COM
pei hin to provide for his support
He actually secured judgment from
= French court, but - property Of
his father-in-law was in this country,
be was obliged to bring an action on
the transcript Of the French judgment
before an American court. This he
did, but he was defeated. The affair
vas commented on freely BY the New
York papers, and the proud-spirited
Gaul, failing to make the fathsr-in-law
support him, hit upon another plan
for replsnishing kisexohequer. Find
ing Mr.. Bennett in Paris, he sued him
for libel. Thus it came 70 pass thai
that young gentleman had occasion d
occupy the prisoners dock.
The result Of the trial d not YET
known, but it involves . point Of Law
the decision Of which will b awaited

Wood, who went down on tho Osceola
her last trip, haawrittsn US graphical
" describing the Journey which oceu'
pied more than . week between this
place and St. Peter. Their sandba
experience seems to have been both
interesting aud exciting aud we regret
that it is too long for our columns.
We give the concluding paragraphs;
and think that many persons here will
appreciate and endorse Mr.. Woods
estimate Of the officers, and their man.
agemsnt of the Osceola
After leaving Bachelors bar we had
no more trouble, and everything went
finely, the boat arriving at st. Peter.
when the officers had concluded to un-.
load the Hour and most Of the wheat
in order to tighten the boat sufficiently
to enable to g back to Bachelors bar
for the wheat left there. As for our
self, We did not care to try that over
again, 50 spent Sunday in St Peter,
and came to st. Paul Monday morning
Between Henderson and Shakopee,
much to our surprise We passed the
Osceola, steaming along IS though she
had never seen a sand bar, and We
concluded that the proprietors had
changed their mind about going back
to Bachelors bar. And thus ended
one of the most eventful trips the o.
ceola ever made.
When it was FIRST proposed to run
the Osceola to Redwood Falls, few
people had any idea that she would
make more than two or three trips.
How many she has made we do not
know, tut General Flower, informed
us that they had disbursed nearly thir.
ty thousand dollars at the Redwood
Falls landing alone. To the people Of
Redwood County especially, the o.
ceola has been q blessing, as the pro-
prietors have paid the cash directly to
The farmers Of whom they bought
the wheat, thus leaving the
money in the county. We are quite
sure that al feel grateful to the enter.
prise of Messrs. Flower l. Hawkins,
and certainly, if any firm deserves
prosperity it is this one. It is TO be
hoped that they have been sufficiently
paid in their undertaking to benefit
the people Of Minnesota valley as we'll
40 themselves.
All, who we're passengers on the
boat, during this somewhat lengthy
journey, will long remember the effort
Of the proprietors and officers to make
thsie guests comfortable under tAs
circumstances. Certainly, there never

themselves remarkably well. Really,
wesdo not know what the ladies would
have done with the children during
such . tedious trip, had It not been
for him. How he could coutsive h
heap the vegetables of the season, on
the table, il beyond our ken But We
think that if We knew as much about

We should be pretty we'll posted il

OF with His Head.

After . reception At the magnificent
palace OF the Duke of Sutherland,
whose retinue il said to be almost
equal to an army, the Shah was solici.
tous for the safety Of the British en-
pire. On tho mornig after his rsoep-
tion BY the Duke he sought an inter
view with the Prince Of Wales. for
whom he is said to have taken . liking
As he is not man of many words, and
French is the only language in common
between him and the Prince, and he
speaks it with difficulty, he lost no
time explaining what seemed to him
to need no explanation. He simply
advise the Prince to put the Duke Of
Sutherland to death. A the Prince
naturally was . little surprised At the
abruptness Of this suggestion-saa he
and the Duke are, moreover. great
ftiends-the Shah urged with 80 mpch
eagerness that it was impossible SO
powerful subject could BE- permitted
70 exist without endangeriug the
throne When the Prince explained
to him that, however just his view
might be, the laws Of England did not
allow king to put subject to death,
the Shah became much depressed.
Presently he rallied, and exclaimed,
"But at least you can put out his
eyes!' 1t was difficult to make him
understand that even this could not be
safely done /; and when he at last broke
of the interview, he was evidently
persuaded that there could be little
security for dynasty which possessed
90 slight authority over its subjects.
It never could have occurred to him
that there was an impropriety in &C.
cepting the Dukes hospitality in the
evening and proposing bis execution
in the morning. Nor did the failure
of his plan deter him from accepting
the same Dukes invitation to Treu.

Of life in an English country house

Some idea may be formed Of the
nature and extent Of the business Of
the General Land Office when it is con
sidered that during the fiscal year end
ing June 80, 1872, there were receiv-
ed an registered 55,672 letters, and
that A, 900 we're written and recorded.
Commissioner Drunmond makes
the gratifying announcement that the
business of the Office. which was large.
" in arrears which he took charge, is
being speedily aud perfectly brought up,
aud that by the end of the present Is.
cal year the old cases will be adjusted,
that thereafter parties who purchase
lands Of the Government viii not, as
heretofore, be subjected to the suspense,
anxiety, and loss consequent upon q
dozen years, or more, in the adjust
ment Of their entries" The greatest
care has been exercised in properly
arranging and preserving these records,
and their importance and value are in
estimable. On this Commissioner re-
marks:
Were every acre of land now own
ed by the Government sold or other
wise disposed Of, there would still be
ample necessity for the perpetuation
Of this bureau, with . clerical force BY
no means small, to afford information
and furnish papers respecting che orr
giual transfer Of title from the Govern.
ment. In many instances the necessity
for these TRANSCRIPTS Of records arises
from errors and inadvertances either
in constructing laws or in execution
Of the details Of transfer, both Of which
inevitably lead to expensive and pro-
tracted litigation.
"There IL not % Qw4sr Of homo in
any Of the States in tho prosperous
valley Of the Mississippi, nor in the
rapidly growing regions beyond that
river, who does not depend upon the
records Of this bureau for evidence "a
complete the chain Of title BY which
his home is held. Even from those
regions Of the West which have been
peoplsd for the greatest length Of time
this Office Is in eopstant receipt Of ap
plications for certified transcripts oi
records affecting the validity Of title q
lands which, for ten, twenty, and even
ffty years, have besn under cultiva
