MANITOBA.

Mr.. A. 81. Cyr has handed us letter re.
ceived by him from Capt. A. Grovenor, the
well-known agricultural implement dealer,
who went to Winnepee last spring, from
which We take the following, which will be
of interest to our readers:
Business is quite dull on account of the
grasshoppers, which are more numerous
than they were last year. Farmers in the
vicinity Of the settlement, in fact for twen-
ty miles back, have not put in any crop
this season. Yet I hope to do something in
the way of plows and wagons with the
Mennonites when they come 5000 are on
the way.
"There are any amount of immigrants
coming by the boats (every other day.
each boat bringing from 100 to 200 passen-
gers, mostly Canadians of the poorer class,
who come to take homesteads. They might
better have remained where they were
However, with some Of the leading mer-
chants business is better this year than it
was last year.
'The hunters are just coming in, which
always helps business. The thieves and
gamblers from Bismarck and elsewhere are
now here, but they find it dull. There is
much more business than money. Rents are
high; everything iahigh. We rented dry
goods box with a stovc-!';pc through the
top for $40 per month ; but onl.; staid one
month and got something better for $40.
Yet buildings are going up rapidly; there
must be $50 going up this season. 1t must
be very dull here in the winter, as summer
il the harvest I regret at times that
came up. I suppose St. Cloud joys along
about as usual. I take The JOURNAL,
but don't see any great change. I suppose
you will have high old time on the Sd of
July would like to be there"

NORTHERN PACIFIC.
AUDUBON, MINI, June %. 1875,

EDITOR JoURNAL.-Since may last let
ter, one of the worst accidents ever known
on this road has occurred. The western
bound train on the Dakota Division was
running at the rate of twenty miles an hour,
when coming around curve a wash-out of
some two or three car lengths was discov-
cred, but before the train could be slacken-
ed the engine dropped through, coming to
an immediate stop, and the heavily-loaded
box cars were piled up promiscuously on
top Of it. Our General Superintendent, J.
H. Sullivan. and VIM. Fitzpatrick, Road
Master Of the Dakota Division, were riding
on the pilot, commonly known as the cow
catcher. Mr.. Fitzpatrick jumped off and
WAS INSTANTLY KILLED
by the locomotive coming upon him, while
Mr.. Sullivan was thrown some fifty feet, in
juring him severely though not dangerous
ly. A fireman, Chas Sanders by name, was
instantly killed andC. Rand, H. Foster and
H. s. Lyle, the telegraph repairer, were
seriously injured.
