On last Tuesday evening second
spelling school was held in Cranes
Hall. Mr.. II. Blanchard was elected
President of the evening and Mrs. Jas.
Farwell, L. D. Henry and E. T. Hal
BERT judges. In the first part of the
evening there was, as before, general
spelling down Of all who wished to spell.
At the close of this Miss Hattie Barteau
was left standing.
Following this was the spelling Of
forty words on paper for prize.
Lastly, there was spelling match
between chosen sides, Miss Viola J..
Dickson and Miss Freeman acting as
choosers. On account of the lateness
Of the hour three persons, Miss V. J..
Dickson, Miss Lettie Barrett and
Miss Huldah Hildreth, were left on the
floor instead Of one.
Just before adjourning it was an
nounced that Miss Lettie Barrett was
the successful competitor for the prize
which was gold pencil with pearl
handle, valued at five dollars. Miss
Barrett spelt twenty-six of the forty
words and Miss Dickson twenty-five.
The Brass Band furnished music as
at the previous spell. c. E. L.

The new hotel has been leased TO
Mr.. Herrick, Of Albany, New York, for
q term Of seven years. Mr.. H. is an
old hotel man though not very old in
years. He has very fine appearance,
is wide awake, genial and social, and
we believe is such man as will make
the hotel an honor to the city. He fur
nishes it throughout himself and will
probably open it to the public some time
in August. The men who have put
their money into this enterprise deserve
great credit, and the success that is
about to crown their efforts. Red Wing
is to have hotel worthy the business
and enterprise of the city and Of which
no man need ever be ashamed.
j. G. Weatherby has decided to SET
tie in Benson, Swift Co., on the St.
Paul & Pacific Railwhy. Mr..
Weatherby came to this city
twenty-one years ago. He tells us
that our city then numbered some
twelve families. Rev. j. w. Hancock,
then Indian Missionary, lived in a log
house on the present site of Hoffman's
Brewery; DR.. w. w. Sweeney, lived in
log house on the present site Of Shell
don's warehouse; Mr.. H. L. Bevans
had a little store where Eams & Co.'S
meat ma.ket now is, and two other
frame stores, one on Broad St., and the
other on Main St. had been commenced
and that was the extent of our now
thriving city.
The work on the block of 0. Eames
g. Co. has been temporarily stopped by
a law suit. Miss Streeter, step daugh-
ter Of Mr.. Williams, Of the Delmonico,
having just come of age, claims
the property as the heir of Mr.. Strreter
who died some years since. The lots
were sold at Administrators sale, but
the heir claims that no money passed
at the time of the sale and therefore the
sale is void. We understand that there
is prospect Of arranging matters so that
the work can 60 on. 1t is certainly to
be hoped that this will be done, as it
can be, without prejudicing the rights of
any of the parties, as the building will
doubtless be a profitable investment,
besides adding very much to the ap-
pearance of the city and affording en-
ployment to a large number of hands
during it's erection.
w. H. Featherstone started on Tues
day last for trip to Watonwan Coun-
ty, where we understand he has hereto
fore made some investments and where
his brother, D. S. Featherstone has set
tied. Mr.. F. goes with a view of TAX
ing more extended look over the coun-
try and of making further investments.
It is very evident that our Goodhue
County farmers are not all bankrupt.
In this connection we might as well re-
mark that H. E. Perkins, Jonathan
Perkins, Robert Deakin, T. NJ. Iowa.
ter, and other farmers and citizens of
this County, have bought over four
thousand acres of land this spring,
near Morris in Stevens County. We
suppose that our farmers are getting
more wealth than they know how to
use in this County and hence are seek
ing investments elsewhere. It is nat
ural that men who have made their
wealth out of the soil should have more
faith in that than any thing else, but we
believe that little money invested in
manufacturing would pay as we'll.

The Sermons Yesterday.

Reinvigorated by the health-giving coun-
try air, the religious shepherds return to the
care of their hocks filled with energy and
anxious to do battle with the Evil One. The
people, too, are beginning to return to the
city and the churches are again filled with
worshippers. At the Fifth avenue Presby-
terian church yesterday there assembled a
crowded congregation to hear the Rev. John
Hall discourse on the necessity of unpreju-
the Tempter should induce the pro-
Tossing Christian to pervert the Word
of God to the ruin of his own
soul. The reverend gentleman devel-
oped this important text with his accustomed
ability and broadness of view, and showed
that in proportion to the authority which
men attach to the Bible will be the cunning
with which some people will use specious
Bible readings to lure others to destruc-
ton. The Rev. DR.. Tying preached to the
congregation of the Holy Trinity on 'The
Narrow Pathway to Heaven" which, he
pointed out, required care and watchful-
ness to pass through. There is
but one road, and it does not
suffice to make fair start. If we would ar
rive safely at the goal we must watch our
course and avoid the obstacles to eternal life.
The Rev. S. M. Hamilton, of the Scotch Pres
byterian church, took for the subject of his
sermon "The Christian TRANSPORTATION,
and showed the superiority of Christian
ethics over the worldly systems of morality,
which, he said, were only ga collection of
customs that differ in different countries -
The Rev. Father O'Kelly preached in st.
Bernards Catholic church ON the origin and
purpose of the ''Forty Hours Alteration" F."
which the lecturer declared to be one of the
most beautiful of all the Catholic devotions.
Dr. Armitage discoursed in the Fifth avenue
Baptist church on the elements of successful
prayer. True intelligent simplicity he de-
clared to be the element which was needed
to pray with understanding. Join with this
faith and humility and we have all the ele-
ments of successful prayer. In all the Cath
olic churches of Brooklyn Bishop Loughlins
letter promulgating the Papal Jubilee notice
was read. Over the whole religious field the
same activity is visible. The husbandmen of
souls are busy reaping and gathering in their
harvest, SO that all may be safely bestowed
before the day of wrath has come.

"The banking Business.o

In reading the report of the trial of Theo-
dore w. Brown in connection with the lar
ceny of the public treasury we are impressed
with an observation made by Ottman, one Of
the accused party, to a detective. Ottman,
as our readers will remember, is charged
with having taken from the Treasury $47, 900.
For this robbery he is now under arrest.
When Ottman took the money he scarcely
knew what to do with it, and in his anxiety
to have it suddenly out of his hands he led
to his own capture. Detective McDeyitt
says that ''Ottman was anxious to invest the
money in the banking business, and en-
ployed witness for that purpose" This reso-
luton of Ottman to become great banker
only shows the condition into which our
business has fallen. We have no doubt that
if Ottman had come to New York, established
o banking house and gone into business he
might have made great deal of money; that
he might have, like Jay Gould, made restitu-
tion to the Treasury Of the SAT, 600 he took from
it, and might have become 'great power in
the street, "king" among railroad brokers,
his name ''terror" to the market Ottman
desired to enter into the banking business,
but he was too precipitate. He did not make
haste slowly. lie got into the hands of the
police and was arrested Instead of becoming
the JAY Gould of Washington and making
restitution to the Treasury he will proba-
bly, go to Jail and think over the opportu-
mites he has lost.

the platform. But every man will be able to
do decisive work against the rotten ring
which has debauched Pennsylvania, and
which is upheld by the republican party with
all its power" 1t is equally true that not
single officer TO be chosen in the approaching
New York election will have anything to
do with the national currency, and the
logical consequence would be that the Syra-
cuse Convention should say nothing on the
subject If Governor Tilden's Albany organ
expresses his views, the Syracuse Convention
will say nothing on imitation and confne its
declarations to State issues. Such course,
intended to relieve the Presidential candi-
date from painful dilemma, would prove
him to be as wanting in courage as Senator
Thurman and Governor Hendricks.
1t is easy to see where so cowardly
course would land the democratic party
The democratic infationists are bold, ag-
gressive and defiant, and if, in the whole
party, no conspicuous man dares confront
them with resolute opposition, it is too
clear that the democratic party is already in
control of the inAationists. Every other
prominent democrat having been cowed, if
Mr.. Tilden does not permit his convention
to fling defiance in the teeth of the infa-
tionists, it will be evident that they are
masters of the democratic party. If Gov
ernor Tilden has courage enough to fight
them he will deserve the plaudits of honest
men, although he may forfeit his Presidential
hopes. We would fain believe that there is
one eminent democrat who ''would rather be
right than be President"

Georgia.


In q letter from our special Southern
correspondent, Mr.. Nordhoff which we
print elsewhere, he expresses the belief that
the emigration movement which has been be-
gun in Georgia of late is not likely to have i'm
portant results Negroes, as well as whites,
have been removing westward from the State
in considerable numbers for several years.
He gives an interesting account of CONVEX
sation with colored emigration agent on
this subject, and adds some particulars of
the industrial condition of the blacks and of
the common schools and the State finances.
The Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle remarks of
previous letter of Mr.. Nordhoff, that he ap-
pears to underestimate the prosperity Of
Georgia, and points out that the State has an
excellent and economical government and
low taxation. ''We do not pretend to COM
pare the old lands of Georgia with the rich,
alluyial lands of the Mississippi" says the
Chronicle; 'but we submit that we have man.
aged our affairs generally as well as the peo-
pie of the States named in his letter" 1t
will be seen that in his communication
printed to-day our correspondent points out
clearly the fact that Georgia has had, under
democratic auspices, an economical and ex-
cellent administration, showing that the
State debt is trifing, the State credit high,
the taxes low and the counties almost ex-
empt from debt.

The InnAnnnlty idea I'm Politics.

We observe that some crudely thinking ed
itors complain of the OKelly's manage
ment of Tammany Hall. They say that he
is too dogmatic and that he nominates can
didates to suit himself, that he carries the
party in his hat, and that there is no longer
any universal suffrage in New York They
point out that Tammany Hall is secret
order and its influence upon politics perni-
cious. They show that there is really no
public opinion in New York, that we have
''parties" or ''rings" who obey the win
of some one experienced and audacious
member. We do not accept these criticisms
as altogether sound. The O'Kelly, instead
of assuming arbitrary power, is really follow
ing out great idea, an idea that has made a
profound sensation in our modern times
that of the dogma of infallibility.
The O'Kelly is n dutiful son of the Church
He has been studying it's recent history. He
sees how the Holy Pontiff has strengthened
his power by proclaiming as dogma that in
all matters of faith his will is supreme and
his Judgment infallible. AS O'Kelly is q
learned man, who has been much abroad in
early years, and not only q learned but
devout man, who is said by his admirers to
have once contemplated a life Of retirement
and meditation in q monastery, like Charles
v, we can easily see how he would naturally
adapt to New York politics this great idea of
the Holy See. If our people will only look
at the matter a moment they will see how.
wise and sound it is. If the dogma of infal-
ibility becomes part of the Tammany creed
it will save great deal of trouble. O'Kelly
will be Pope. He will dictate the policy of
the party when in power. A great deal of
acrimony will be avoided. Once politicians
learn that from the power of their Supreme
Pontiff of the Tammany Hall democracy of
New York there can be no appeal, there will
be peace. If O'Morrissey, who is also
devout member Of the Church, could have
seen the real drift of the O'Kelly policy he
never would have made his unfortunate
movement. Let us have the dogma of in
fallibility by all means in our city politics,
and since O'Kelly is in the Tammany Vati-
can let the mandate be issued to all the
faithful that he is supreme, that his word is
absolute, and that from it there can be no
appeal.

BOSNIA remains quiet, and no confirmation
comes of the alarming rumors rife yesterday
of the spread of the insurrection. We pub
lish an interesting letter on the subject of
the present troubles, which shows how these
dangerous little wars are played with by the
diplomatists of Europe. The foreign Powers
have at length decided on using their infu-
ence with the insurgents to persuade them
to lay down their arms and submit to the
Sultan. The leaders will be informed that
there is no hope of foreign Intervention in
their behalf, and it is hoped this declaration
may dispose them to accept the terms offered
by the Porte.

Virginia..


The statement we published the other day
from John Fitzhugh Lee, of Virginia, in ref
erence to the work of the Virginia Immigra-
ton Society, will be read with deep interest
and with that respect which we are always
glad to pay to men as eminent as General
Lee. The General came to New York as we
understand, for the purpose of attracting the
attention of our citizens to the resources of his
State. Many of the leading citizens of Vir-
ginia since the war have felt the necessity of
inducing immigration. The resources-agri-
cultural, mineral and commercial-are SO
vast that it seems pity, not only for our
own interest but that of Virginia herself,
that they should not be utilized. Before
the war, when slavery was dominant power
in this country, the tide of immigration ran
toward the far West This arose largely dur
ing the Kansas and Nebraska time when immi-
grafton became political movement when
the Northern and Southern leaders were
struggling for the control of the Territories,
and when large parties left New England
under the tutolage of politicians and anti
slavery leaders, carrying, in the can't of that
day, "Sharp's rifles and Holy Bibles" Since
slavery is dead there has been disposition
to go into the seaboard States, in many of
which land can be found as cheap as in the
West. In fact, the legend "Go West" has
lost much of its attractiveness 1t never, at
any time was thoroughly sound advice.
The Western States have grown too
rapidly. They are too dependent upon
the East for railroad facilities, CONNER
cial privileges and the Post Office. We
do not sec the wisdom which attracts
cmigrants into the Platte Valley, for instance,
or into Western Kansas or Dakota, when
we have great States awaiting them like Vir-
ginia, North Carolina, Georgia and even
parts of New York and Pennsylvania where
land is cheap and the climate is healthy,
where the immigrant is within easy range of
the markets and of opportunities for the
education of his children.
We are glad to see General Lee speaking
with so much fairness and franlness Of the.
social and political condition of Virginia
He looks upon the negro as intelligent and
industrious. He dwells upon the friendly
spirit existing between labor and capital
The free school system is liberal, and there
is a disposition on the part of the old Virgin
ians to welcome all those who really go to
cast their lot with the people Of that great
and noble State
WE PRINT in another column letter from
