Northern Pacific aud Upper Missouri
River Transportation for 1875.

The prospects are fair for a very large
Montana business over the line Of the
Northern Pacific the coming season. I'm
der the arrangements for 1875, made with
the Diamond r. Line. the responsibility
Of the Northern Pacific on up-river
freights terminates at Bismarck. The
Diamond R. people have made an arrange.
ment with the Coulson Line to run
weekly between Bismarck and Carroll,
putting on half dozen of their lii ht
draft steamers which have proven their
ability to do this work promptly and sat.
isfactorily, and the Josephine and
Key West have already
been ordered to Bismarck. to start out
early in the season. Orders have been given
for opening the road to Bismarck, com
mencing March Oath, and freights will be
forwarded on and after the 10th.
L. G. Power & Bro, and j. G. Baker &
Bro, are building light draft steamer
which will be launched next week at Pitts
burgh to engage exclusively in the
Fort Benton traffic, Commodore Koutz
has also constructed new light draft
steamer for the Upper Missouri business,
and is contesting for the Government
freights. This will make fourteen boats
engaged exclusively in the upper Missouri
traffic, running principally from Bis.

Mrs. Oaklcy's Letter to Florence Til
ton.
II know the trials of a young girl
struggling with the daily toll Of the
school.rocm. You have had SORROWS to
bear that never knew. You have been
called to judge between father and moth
er in a broken home. I fear you will re.
greet leaving Mrs. Bradshaw's. Your
mother has long been my dearest friend.
She is most tender, wise and sacrificing
mother. have known many mothers,
but her soul is bound up in her children
more than any ever knew, and ask you
to consider we'll her pleasure, and hold up
her heart and hands in this extremity.
None know better than that it is she,
and not your father, that now demands
the loyalty and service Of any who are able
to serve her. She stands bleeding
at all her life's arteries, and from no fault
except weak fondncss for her husband,
and blinaly sacrificing herself to save
him from his disaster. Do not take up
that role. It is he who should protect
you, and if you have services to render,
cherish your mother. I had hoped most
earnestly you would be spared any open
avowal of your feeling and position
toward your parents. May it not be
forced on you by the selfish hand that
has robbed everyone to maintain this
wretched case. But let no one prevail on
you to compromise yourself: I do not
mean to say what think of your father,
but I can say nothing without admitting
my horror Of his conduct toward her, and
the public that he has debauched by his
publications. I only plead for your low
ing, mute, and suffering mother" Great
laughter from the gallery.]

A letter from q newspaper writer in
London states that the banquet to the
Prince Imperial at Woolwich has given
rise to q good deal Of criticism both here
and in France. The commander of the
garrison, who presided, made an exceed
ingly fulsome speech to the Prince and
even went SO far as to express a hone
that the swords of English officers m;pht
ore day be at his service. 1t is under.

Canal Ring, have done much TO inspire
confidence in the party.
