What the Southern Press Say of
The Tribune.

We consider The Tribune a very valula.

The New York Tribune, in its faithful

done immense service to truth and Justice.

We regard 1t as the best paper,all in all,
published in the United States.-Morris-
town, Tenn, Gazette.
To-day The Newly DIRK Tribune is I'M
doubtcdly the first of American newspa-
pers; whatever may be said of its rivals,
it has, clearly won precedence of all, and
very creditably does it represent the Jour-
nalism of the country. While dealing
with all the topics coming within the
range of a newspaper, The Tribune makes
speciality of the great subject of agricul-
ture. 1t becomes therefore Il matter OF
vital importance to the country that the
direction of the ideas of this vast section
should be in able and conspicuous hands.
and Il matter for congratulation that the
farmers newspaper par excellence has
the high standing of The Tribunc.-[The

ably at this time more fully illustrated in

The first term of Court held in this

There are two criminal and seventeen
civil cases OH the docket. The Grand
Jury found one indictment only, that
being against Andrew jacobson for

Tuesday night, but was re-arrested and

Among the lawyers in attendance,
we notice Z. Clark, of Window D.
Buck, Of Mankato Il. J. Knox, of
Jackson, and L. u. Hadley, of Luverne,
