for the main line of the Canada Pacific
railroad when it shall be built. Another
portion of the scheme, depending first on
the construction of the whole OF the
Thunder Bay branch, is to build road
on to the west side Of Winnipeg river,
connecting Winnipeg and Selkirk. 1t is
understood that the companies interested
claiming that the roads are for coloniza-

and as lands available for the purpose
are not to be found in Manitoba to any
extent, the northwest territories must

that he leaned heavily toward the sunny
south. But the follow letter written
in April 1861, to Gov. Andrew, Of

bunkers are likely to be employed.

From Gov. Hoyt's report,
Much has been accomplished through
the agency of the interior and the war
departments during the past two or
three years to save the people of this
territory from the horrors Of Indian
wars and massacres The removal of
the Sioux from their former hunting
grounds in northern Wyoming, the re-
moyal Of other tribes and portions Of
tribes to regions far remote, and the
~pacification of those allowed to remain,
have very greatly lessoned the danger
to be apprehended by settlers. In
deed, during the past season more has
been feared and suffered from bands of
white desperadoes infesting certain
lines Of travel, especially the line be-

The WAYS and means committee |,

THE ways and means committee Of
the house has reported favorably on
several very important bills. One of
them provides for making United
States notes receivable for duties on
imports. Secretary Sherman already
receives greenbacks in such cases, and
the bill is to legalize his action, there
being some doubts about its legality.
Another bill is to permit the exchange
of six per cent. bonds for four per cent.
bonds at the pleasure Of the holder.
At present the holders of such bonds
are subject to calls from the secretary,
and, in great part, they are foreigners.
The new loan is taken mostly at home
which is an incalculable advantage.
But If the proposed bill passes a large
proportion Of the four per cent. loan
will be held in Europe.

IT LOOKS like it, feels like it, and
smells like it. What, you ask? Why
the discovery Of our remarkable cold
winter. We find it in the correspon-
dence Of an Indiana writer who says
that"Prof. Tingley's paragravitant and
diagravitanu discovery, besides other
reforms, extends the boundaries Of con
crete and contracts those of abstract
numbers; gives a new Specification to
the vinculnm, eliminates imaginary
roots; destroys the geometrical founda-
ton for belief in a fourth dimension in
space, and geometrical equivalents for
terms Of any degree whatever" What
a wonderful scientific deduction, to be
sure. 1t were strange if a new supply
of caloric from the weather department
be not forthcoming as an offset.
