NORTHERN PACIFIC.

The Prospect of Congress Extending Its
Time Bright and Encouraxing--The Road
Doing Good Business--The st. Paul
Route to the Black Hills and its Mani
fold Advantages.
A visit yesterday to the Northern Pacific
Office, in this city, and pleasant interview
with General Manager Sargent, elected the
information that the leading officials of the
company are in good spirits and confidently
expect the early passage of the bill for an
extension of time to the road, now pending,
and which has been favorably reported upon
in committee of the House. Unless some
unlooked-for accident occurs, the bill will
certainly become law the present session,
and in this event, the company will
without further delay, proceed to build
from Bismarck on to the coal fields west of
the Missouri this season, though it is not
anticipated that any thing beyond the build
ing of this distance-some twenty-five or
twenty-seven miles-will be attempted this
year. The intermediate period however, will
not be lost but occupied in getting good
ready for next seasons operations, when
there is little doubt, the extension will be
carried to the Yellowstone and beyond.
Business on the road is now picking up
rapidly both in passenger and freight
traffic, and on the whole the prospects of
the company are decidedly encouraging.
On and after Monday next the 18th inst,
the company puts on its express passenger
trains, which leave st. Paul at 1870 A. NJ, daily
except Sundays, and arrive at Bismarck
at Z o'clock the next morning. At this
point the Northwestern Express, Stage and
Transportation company connects with the
N. p, running it's stages through to Dead
wood in 36 hours-mahng the time from
St. Paul to Deadwood only So hours. From
Chicago to Deadwood, by this route, the
time is cnt down to only 80 hours. 1t may
be safely set down, without any chance of
contradiction, that the St. Paul route is the
quickest, cheapest, and most comfortable
line to the Hills, and that it will hereafter
take the bulk of the travel to that region.
It's time table cannot be matched by the
Iowa or Union Pacific lines, and in point of
accommodation, safety, and convenience, it
far excels them. Parties contemplating a
trip to the gold fields will save both time
and money by taking the st. Paul route.

ST. PATRICK,
How His Day is to be Observed In St. Paul
This Year.

How His Day is to be Observed In st. Paul
This Year.
St. Patrick's day coming this year on
Sunday, it's celebration will necessarily be
deferred to the following day, next Monday,
the 18th inst. This circumstance will rob
the occasion of much of it's eclot, especially
as the Monday itself is saints day in the
Catholic calendar, that of Saint Gabriel, the
archangel. The usual street procession will
be dispensed with this year, but the Knights
of St. Paul will parade in the morning, and
proceed to pay their respects to the bishops
and clergy at the episcopal residence. The
Father Matthew and st. Joseph's societies
will be invited to unite with the Knights,
and cordial invitation is extended to all
who desire to participate in the
ceremonies. In the evening, two
entertainments will be given, one in the
Opera House and the other in Knauft's hall.
The Opera House entertainment will con-
sist of an address by Rev. John Stanley, and
grand choruses, songs, dramatic perform
ance, Rotations, &C., by amateurs. The
Knauft's hall entertainment will be for the
benefit of St. Mary's schools, and will COM
prise an address by Hon. Ignatius Donnelly,
vocal and instrumental music, historical
tableaux, and humorous drama, entitled
F" DR.. Murphy" Take for all in all, the day
will afford a large fund of innocent and en-
ioyable features, and will amply make amends
for the more imposing ceremonials which
usually characterizes the celebration of the
day of Ireland's patron saint.

Railroad Accident.

An accident to the engine on the down
train on the st. Paul & Pacific road caused
about six hours delay in the arrival of the
train from the west due here at 6:1O last
evening. At 1000 last night the train
was between Delano and Maple Plain, on its
way hither. The above was derived from the
road officials, though rumor gave different
reason for the delay which, in brief, was that
freight train got off the track on Wednes-
day, just this side of Willmar, which necessi-
tated transfer of passengers on that day
between the up and down trains, each re-
turning from that point. The same rumor
also accounts for last nights detention, apart
from the delay incident to transfer, by the
further fact that the engine on the down
train had been disabled.

RETURN POSTAL CARD.

Postmaster Day Conceives Brilliant Idea
Which, the Same, is Accepted by Com
mittee of the House, and is Likely to be
Adopted by the Department.
Postmaster Day, of this city, forwarded
to the department at Washington, on the
22d of November, design for new postal
card, which has since been recommended by
the committee of the House of Representa-
tives, and is likely to be adopted. The pro-
posed card is somewhat larger than the ordi-
nary "postal," and on one side contains the
address and message, and on the reverse side
the return address, and below it the answer.
Each side is intended to be of different color,
and each will bear the impress of one cent
postage stamp. The plan is to erase the ad-
dress and message on receiving the card. and
after writing the return address and answer
OH the reverse side, to forward the same as
if it we're an original of the common kind.
Its advantages are apparent in several re-
spects, and it is to be hoped the idea, or a
similar one, will shortly be adopted and
brought into every day use.

RIVER MATTERS.

The River Rising Below and the Rapids
All Right-CommodOre COulson and the

The lower Missouri river is reported as
rising rapidly.
Reports from the lower Mississippi repre-
sent the river as rising, and that good
stage of water now prevails over the Keokuk
rapids. The canal, however, is still closed.
The st. Louis Times of Tuesday states
that the government contracts on the upper
Missouri river had been awarded to Commo-
dore Coulson, who will at once begin pre-
parations for the work. The same paper
gives the names of the boats constituting
the upper Missouri and Yellowstone fleets
for the coming season.
The controversy between the Northern
Line packet company and the authorities of
the city of Quincy, growing out of the pend
ing wharfage suits, has not been comprom-
Used on account of the hardness of the city
council in accepting the basis of agreement
as before defined.

THE STATE Fair.

Getting Ready for the Big Exhibition.
President Geo. r. Finch, of the State Ag-
ricultural society, with other members of the
executive committee, visited the Fair grounds
yesterday on tour of inspection to ascer-
tain what improvements will be necessary to
put everything in first class shape. It is
proposed to remove the dining hall to a
more eligible position, and to demolish the
unsightly stables which stand near the grove,
fronting the buildings. The grand stand
will be enlarged, the track put in the best
of order, the buildings thoroughly repaired
and renovated, and everything desirable,
both in grounds and buildings will be So
cured. All plans and preparations are be-
ing made for the greatest exposition ever
seen West of Chicago.

A telegram received yesterday morning at the
office of the Red River Transportation company
in this city, from Winnipeg, states that the
river has risen five feet, and that the ice is
breaking up near the shore. The river at that
point is expected to be clear of ice next week.
At Fishers Landing, however, the river has
risen ten feet, owing to the breaking up of Red
Lake river, and the volume of waters entering
the Red river at that place.
The committee roads and bridges of the
county board was in session yesterday. Several
petitions pertinent to the committees speciality
were presented, but were not acted upon. The
sum of $500 was, however, recommended to be
expended in repairing the Hudson road. This
thoroughfare is an important one to the city
generally. Although only some four or FIVE in
habitants of Ramsey county reside thereon, it
taps most fruitful belt of Washington county,
which only awaits good road to induce a large
amount Of produce, now seeking other chan.
nels to flow hitherward. This is an object
worth securing SO let the grant be judiciously
expended, and much good must result to the
city at large.

The Hibernica entertainment at the Opera

Dublin would recognize at once Sackville

There is talk in home circles of adding to
