The Eclectic for December is an exceptional

contains any thing that is not worth the atten

price Of the magazine; as the Spectator saws. it

sole any one who has none, or at least not
much" No story could be more interesting.

is explained with such lucidity that even the
wayfaring man can not fail to comprehend
Col. Chesney's article on the Military Future
of Germany is of real value, as the opinion of
one Of the most competent military critics in
Europe. Prof. Ovens paper On Petroleum

OF Geography in Physical Science is one of the
most important read at the last meeting of the
British Association. Other articles, OF scarcely
interior interest, are Cowper and Rosseau;
West Indian Superstitions; Michael Angelo;
and In my Study Chair. The number is es-
Iecially strong in poetry, The Children's Bed
Time being one OF tn. moot beautiful of recent
poems relating to childhood, and A Lapland
Legend, picturesque version OF one of the
old nature myths. The interest of Mrs Alex

.. .. lngersoll & Co

Hundreds Of readers of the Anti Monopolist
have, during the past year, sent their orders to
the long established and popular dry goods
house OLD. w. Ingersoll & Co. at the corner Of
Sd and Waboshaw streets, st. Paul; and in not
one caseshat we have heard Of have they failed
to give satisfaction to their customers. In
many casgs the grangers in a grange have COM
bined and sent a joint order for SO many yards
OF prints, merinoes, &C., &c. In other cases an
individual has sent his order first for small
amount, and then finding that he made money
by the Transaction for larger sum.
Messrs. Ingerso!l 4 Co. have On hand very
large stock, which is constantly being replen-
ished by purchases in New York. made with
cash Doing an immense business they con-
tent themselves with very small per centage
Of profit, and are thus able to give their Gus
toners great bargains.
Minnesota es blessed this year with large
crow OF wheat, which is selling for high
price. Our state is consequently better off than
any other state in the Union. The misfortunes
oil our fellow citizens in other states have given
us cheap labor and cheap goods. Now is the
time to lay in supply Of clothing, dry goods,
&C., sufficient to last two or three years. Next
year we may have poor crop and low prices
and be as poor as the east is now. "Tade time

Donnelly's majority in Dakota county proves
to be in the neighborhood of 200, a very large
majority considering the fact that he was op-
posed by Seagrave Smith, well known Dem
ocrat, with the entire Republican vote pledged
to his support. Beside this, Smith had the
support of every paper in the county, Repub-
l,can and Democratic, and it is alleged that
thousands of dollars were used openly by the
railroads and wheat buyers to defeat Mr.. Dom
nelly. --FaribauH Democrat.
We are glad to see that our Democrat
ic contemporaries understand the nature
OF the fight that was made against us.
They are helping by their utterances to
bury Seagrave Smith below the centre
of the earth. The Republicans held out
to him the bait that II he would only de
feat Donnelly he should succeed Strait as
Congressman. Let the Republicans
now nominate him. He has done their
dirty work. Why should he not have
his reward?
