MUCH NEEDED MpRovEMENT.-Through
the enterprise of Messrs. VIM. Wilkens and
Charles Shipley a new street, sixty feet wide,
running north from the Frederick road to the
south side of Baltimore street, near the east
ernmost side of the State Scales, and called
Catherine street, has been contracted for to be
graded and opened by Mr.. Thomas Harden, ne

sails. The work will be commenced forthwith;
This Improvement opens up the only line Q,
and Garrison lane, distance of almost three
quarters of mile This is the section of the
1belt" which voted majority for the extern
sion of the city limits at the late election, and
is rapidly filling up with handsome and sub
stantial residences. So compactly, indeed, is
it built up that it seems continuation Of the
city, more especially as it has the conveniencei
of water and gas.

SINGULAR AccIDENT.-The Manchester cor
respondent of the Westminster Sentinel says
"On Friday, 10th inst, as our friend and fell
low townsman Mr.. Jacob Martin was on his
way home from Reisterstown in his buggy,
when about half mile north of Glen Morris
he was overtaken by the thunder shower and
storm then prevailing in that section, he stop
ped under a large tree, standing upon the side
Of high embankment, to shelter himself and
horse from the storm, where he was pretty
comfortably protected for half an hour, when
suddenly the storm grew terrific and ne thinks
there was water spout as the rain came down
in torrents, hiding the view Of his horse /; just
then part of the embankment gave way ana
the gathered waters with rails, roots, &C., hem
med him in on all sides and it was only through
the determined efforts of himself and spirited
horse that he extricated himself from his per-
ilous situation, the buggy floating and the
horse two-thirds covered with water"

Of their fellow Republicans, have

of their fellow Republicans, have
been refused hearing in its columns
when that hearing was asked for in
order that misstatements made by the
Press in the interests of its political
deity might be corrected. The name
Of Alexander Ramsey has been made
the Shibboleth Of Republicanism in
this State, and the man who failed to
lisp it, or who faltered-no matter
how high his position, how great his
worth, how long his service in the par
Twas marked for slaughter. The
place for such an one was on the
other side of the political Jordan.
1t is believed that this One Man
power, with its corrupt rings and ar
rogant intolerance, has been ef1ectu-
ally broken, and the Republican par
ty breathes freer, and has q feeling Of
independence and selfrespect which
has been unknown to it for years.
Instead Of being dead, it has been, as
it were, just snatched from the open
grave with the Ramsey tombstone in
to which it was dropping, and has
been given glorious infusion of new
life; and, relieved of the incubus
under which it has been staggering,
it bounds forward to battle with the
enemy and win greater victories than
ever

Mr.. KNUTE NELSON has introduce
ed in the Senate a bill which the St..
Paul Press says is chased upon the
assumption that the bondholders will
build the road if they are placed by
foreclosure in entire possession of the
property, franchises, etc., Of the St.
Paul and Pacific Company. His bill
extends the time to December, 1875,
and, We believe, proposes that the
grant Of 10000 acres, withheld un-
der the DeGraff lien, shall enure to
the company in instsllments Of 2o0,-
600 acres for every thirty miles Of
read they shall build, beginning at
Melrose; and that 100000 acres shall
be reserved to satisfy any just claims
against the company" 1t is to be
most sincerely hoped that the Legis'
lature will, at its present session, de-
4 wise some means by which these
branch lines may be built with the
least possible delay. 81"

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.

This is not true. The Republican
party in Minnesota is to-day stronger
