Owing to a late advance in the eastern
markets all kinds Of crockery can be pur-
chased at Red Wing to-day as cheap as it
can be had at Chicago. We have been fur
nished the above retail prices by dealers at
Red Wing, and it would seem to US that
they must do better on other articles than
on these in order to do business at ALL 9TH
erwise, as the fellow said, it would be ne
cessary ''to cheat little in order to make
an honest living.'

RED WING.

Its History md Growth-Lcgends and fctaons
Red Owl-Beauty Of location -Magnif-
cent building sites-Institute addition-South
side addition, &C., &c.
The beauty Of the location of Red Wing
has ever been the theme Of comment by the
visitor, or even the passing tourist. The
plateau upon which the city is mostly built
is about forty feet above the river, and is
entirely surrounded by high hills or bluffs,
except on the side next the river. Barn
Bluff stands at the lower end of the town
like some tall sentinel, landmark far
away; then follows College Bluff, Twin
Bluffs, and several other nameless bluffs,
that form sort of semi-circle from the river
above the city to the river below, and the
city lies here in this curious lap of the
bluffs.
Red Wing is supposed to have been the
favored lover of the beautiful Wenonah, of
the maiden rock legend, and who never we'd
ded any of the dusky maidens, but bent his
energies to the arts of war, and of the
chase.
The original village of Red Wing was laid
out in 1852, the first hotel was built in
1853 and was named the ''Red Wing House. -
This hotel has become noted in fiction as
the starting point of Eggleston's Metropolis
vile under the name of Red Owl House, -
as has the city under the name OF
'Red OWL The growth of the city has
been so great that there have been added
to the original plat over thirty additions
and subdivisions. Among the most recent
and important additions are the Institute
! Addition and South Side Addition. The In.
stitute Addition is situated upon an emf.
nence overlooking the business part Of the
city and commanding most beautiful view
Of the scenery of the Mississippi river. OF
this very scenery an English writer who
visited it few years ago, says: sit is one
| Of the few finest and grandest he had seer
in his extensive travels in different parts Of
the world" The proprietors Of this addi.
ton are Capt. Edward Murphy of Minneap
oils, and ". P. Hood, Of this city. In thi.
addition is situated the Red Wing Collegiate
Institute and the addition affords some mos
beautiful and mainifcent sites for resi-
dences. Adjoining this addition is the
South Side addition which has just beer
plated; it contains seventy blocks Of ter
! lots each.

MEMPHIS. Aug. l2.-An Appeal Helena
special says that Mr.. Sebastian, who has just
arrived from Austin, MAKES the following
statement: Between 300 and 400 men from
Memphis landed at Shoe Fly, below Austin,
this morning. and marched into the town
without opposition at 3 o'clock. The
citizens had abandoned the place on
the previous evening, and the colored
men, after holding the place few hours and
sacking it. left for their homes. The Men,
phis people found about thirty negroes in
town, who surrendered at once. Eight of
them were arrested and put in jail-the
others being non-combatants were not mo-
Tested. Everything up to O'Clock this
morning, when he left, was quiet. At Trot-
ter's landing he learned that the negroes
were organizing for the purpose of retaking
Austin. Col. Campbell, formerly sheriff of
Desota county. Miss, has crossed the river
at Helena and gone to Austin to endeavor to
restore peace.
SIXTH DIsPATCH-oRDER RULES AGAIN.
MEMPHIS, Aug. 1.-THE latest reports
from Austin state that the improvised troops
have disbanded and gone home, and peace
is restored. The impression prevails here
that a few determined men could have pre-
vented the whole affair at the outset by
meeting the negroes before summoning help
from elsewhere.

Chaplain HlcCabe at the Methodist
CuUrCh

The Methodist church was filled to its
utmost capacity last evening, drawn thither
by the announcement that Chaplain c
G. McCabe. of Chicago agent of the
Church Extension society of the Methodist
Episcopal church, was to preach. After
singing, and prayer by w. w. Foster, jr.,
of Pittsford, the pastor, Rev. II. +. Austin,
introduced the chaplain to the audience,
who proceeded at once to lay before his
hearers the claims of the society. He gave
a very interesting history of the work that
had been accomplished by the society since
its organization, some years ago of the
fifteen hundred churches that had been ded-
icatcd to God in that time through its in
strumentalty, being about onc-fourth of
the whole number erected by that denomi-
nation during that period. The proportion
of houses of worship being erected by this
society is at present averaging about four
week, and he predicted that within two
years the ratio would increase until every
one of the seven days of the week would
see church consccratel to God, through
the workings of this society alone.
lie related several interesting accounts
of the establishing OF these churches along
the frontier, and his description of the
work along the line of the great Pacific
railroad, where a church was planted as
soon as a depot was established. The loan
plan, where societies had been helped in
part to funds to erect a house of worship,
was particularly commended, and several
instances were related of societies that had
attained to great power and influence
through the help they had extended them
in this manner TO show what dctermlna-
ton would do when brought to the test he
related his experience in connection with
the building of church in Utah, the house
.being dedicated in sixty days from the
commencement OF the effort to obtain sub
scriptions. lie appealed to the chnrch to
give literally to the cause, and upon out
siders he especially called to give aid TO the
great and good work. He hoped that the
contributions would exceed the previous
year, and felt confident that such would be
the case, from the fact that at Pittstord
where the chaplain spoke IN the morning
upon the same subject, they contributed
more this year than Rutland, Brandon ant
Pittsford together did last year At tho
close of the speakers remarks, Rev. Mr.
Austin, in few wel-chosen words, pointed
out to the audience the great good thai
4 would come of the donations bestowed
D upon the mission, and appealed to the con
grcgation to give freely to the cause. Tn,
, pastor appointed collectors to take The
, contribution.
While the contributions were bein!
taken, Chaplain McCabe entertained TIN
! audience with some old familiar songs
i playing the accompaniment himself,
The meeting closed with the singing o
IL the doxology by the whole congregation
> after which the pastor pronounced tn
u benediction.

Railroad Collision.

CANosErAoA, N. Y, July 10.
Trains No. eastward and No. Z west
ward, both through express, on the Buffalo
and Erie railroad, came In collision on a
single track mile east of this place at 8
o'clock Saturday morning, while going at
the rate of fifteen to twenty miles per hour
The westward train carried passengers
from New York at Z o'clock Friday even
ing. Both engines were destroyed, and
the baggage and smoking cars of the west
ward-bound train were utterly demolished
A u nber Of passengers in the westward
smoking car were hurt. A large, fine
looking gentleman named Van Horne,
from Philadelphia, had his left arm and
leg broken and seems internally injured.
He appears to be the most hurt. A couple
OF other passengers in the same car have
arms broken, and a number have suffered
severe cuts and bruises. The baggage
master of the western train, named Atkins,
was killed. A brakeman on the same train
had an ankle broken. The firemen and en-
gineers escaped with slight cuts and
bruises. The engine of the east
ward train plunged through the engine,
baggage and smoking car of the western
train, and smashed the front platform and
glass in the front end of the forward first
class car, but all escaped without injury.
The baggage car of the eastern train had
its end and side burst out, but the baggage
was uniniured. The westward baggage
was destroyed, and the mails soaked and
torn. 1t is stated that the eastward train
had the right of way. The westward train
should have waited at Burns, the next
station east Of Canoseroga. The westward
conductor says he had new engineer this
morning, and he instructed him at Burns
to pull up to the station and wait for the
train, instead of which he pludged ahead
The road curves sharply to the east around
the hill, and trains are invisible to each
other hundred yards apart The crash of
the engines was the first warning to the
passengers. Mr. Nanhorn, badly ir iured,
is agent of the New York and Erie rail-
road. The fireman on the eastward bound
train had his ankle broken, and was hurt
internally. All passenger coaches of both
trains remained Oh the track, except the
westward smoking car

Reciprocity Treaty.

ST.. JonN, n. b., July 10.
The Dominion board of trade after long
debate on the reciprocity treaty, which was
severely criticised, and accepted by none
of the speakers without qualifications,
adopted the following resolutions
Frst-Thc board reitcratcs its formerly
expressed opinion in favor of reciprocity
between the United States and Canada.
Second-That while the document known
as the draft of the reciprocity treaty con-
taius many desirable provisions, particular
ly such as relate to the exchange of natural
productions, anC a reciprocal extension
of maratme privileges, the treaty is never
theless defective in the privileges secured
for Canada, which are not nearly so valu-
able as those conceded to the United States /;
and that this board, by means of "A properly
constituted committee and otherwise, take
steps to represent to the government of
Canada those aspects Of the treaty in which
it is unfair to Canada or might operate
prejudicially to Canadian interests.

ceptable manner.
