PAUL DE CAssAGNAc, the irrepressible
Bonapartist, has achieved another victory
over his legion of enemies. He was kicked
out of the French assembly about two
months since because OF informalities in his
election. He promptly appealed to his con-
stituents, and was reelected by an increased
majority, and last week the assembly, after
trying vainly to devise some excuse for re-
him to full fellowship. He promises to con-
tinue to be thorn in the side of the admin
istration of Mr.. Grevy as he was with the ad-
ministration of Marshal MacMahon.

BILL KINGS paper indulgod in thu follow

ing screed yesterday morning:
There is wrath at Yankton and other points
on the Missouri river, over an alleged clandes-
tine letting of contracts by Indian Commits
sioner Hayt for the supply of wagons, harness,
agricultural implements, cows, bulls ETC.. for
the Missouri river agencies without advertising
in any newspaper west Of Chicago. It is
stated, as consequence, that majority of
western bidders were ignorant Of the letting
and that the articles named will be purchased
of the few who were given opportunity to
bid without competition from sources where
these supplies could have been cheaply fur
nished.
The attacks on Commissioner Hayt from
that quarter are we'll understood in this To-
cality, and their basis can be Judged from
the fact that the advertisement in question
appeared in Bill Kings paper from February
21st to March Sd. The statement is un-
doubtedly true that "western bidders'' did not
learn of the letting through Bill Kings pa
per,but the way to remedy that is for the com
missioner to advertise in the GLOBE. He
deserves the censure given him, not because
he did not advertise but because he did not
select a proper medium.

as St. Paul is the commercial center, of the
new northwest, and starts in the year 1879
with equally bright prospects. OF her great
industries the manufacture of lumber and
-four, favorable winter in the woods prom
ises a busy season in the lumber mills, and
the presence of large stocks in the State,
and an early season in 1879, foreshadow
plenty of work for the mills. Abundant
and cheap lumber will stimulate build
ing, which Jagged little last season, and
activity at the mills means an i'm
petus to all sorts of trade. The eagerness
with which capitalists are enlarging the mill
ing facilities of Minneapolis declares their
faith in the future of the industry. Besides
the rebuilding of the mills destroyed by the
great explosion q year ago, contract has
just been let for a new mill, the capacity of
which will be 1000 barrels day, 500 more
than any mill now running, This will raise
the capacity of the mills to $4,000 barrels
| daily, which the proprietors expect will be
fully taxed during the summer. notable
impetus has been given ito this in
| dustry in the past year by an arrangement
! for direct shipments of flour to Europe by
| fast freight and steam ship lines. The best
| ports in month from manufacture, and its
superiority to native brands is such that the
trade last month amounted to 1000 barrels
a day. Consignments are now sent to some
half dozen British ports, and negotiations are
under way for introduction into other coun-
tries in the north of Europe. With the ma
terial afforded by the natural increase of the
wheat product in the developing of the re-
| gion northwest of here, and the exhaustless
demand of the foreign and domestic market
for our superior flour, an enormous growth
in the milling industry the coming season is
expected.
1t is too early to collect much trustworthy
information as to agricultural prospects o.
emigration. Spring wheat is the Minnesots
staple, and seeding has only commenced il
a few exceptional cases. There is expecta
ton of an increased acreage. Reports from
| the southern part of the State indicate large
immigration on the lines of the Winona ant

Dunton's Spirit Of the Turf, Chicago,
has the following mention of a couple of the
big farms of Dakota: s. G. Dalrym pie and
w. r. Steele have taken about 15O head of
mules and horses to their Dakota farms
lately. The Dalrymples have 125,OO0 acres;
Mr.. Steele has something less. These horses
and mules were bought in st. Louis, and
were very select lot. We may expect to
hear from these gentlemn and their mules
one of these days. The Dalrymples expect
to raise 100000 bushels of wheat this year;
Mr.. Steele not qvite SO many. Steele says
farming is better than trotting horses.
