slack Fater Navigation.
TWaseca Radical. !

The St. Paul Dispatch says that now
Senator Mcmillan is reelected, ''the
farmers of Minnesota may expect ~ feet
of water in the Mississippi between st.
Paul and La Crosse" This would be
glorious news for the farmers were it not
for the length of the time fixed by the
Dispatch in which Mr.. Mcmillan is to do
the work, which is three or four years,
which with one adjournment of the case,
would bring the event around to about
the same time that McMillan's six years
would expire and then the project-that
is, Al feet of water in the river between
St. Paul and La Crosse-w0uld be what
his friends might say was unfinished bust
ness and that he ought to be elected to
consummate the work. Having had
some experience in dredging rivers, we
think that Nc. will, or at least
can, obtain the AZ feet Of water
between the two points named in
less than two or three years. Of course
much will depend on the efficiency OF the
means and men, which and whom he
NAV employ, to carry forward the enter
prise; and we would suggest that Nc.
command the dredge in person and ap-
pplHb IL ~ CnS phOAN w oAAO" eIAS 'ONNA
and D. NJ Sabin pilot, Speaker Fletcher
to pick up all stray pine logs that might
impede navigation. Williams, of Albert
Lea, to spear and otherwise get rid Of all
bull-heads. Mai. Strait to command the
land forces, with W. D. Washburn and
VIM. R. Marshall as JOINT suffers to sup
ply the expedition with the essentials, not
emitting diluted fresh water turtle soup;
and lastly, Senator Window should be
appointed first mate, whose long and ar
duous service in the cause of slack water
navigation well fits him to look snag OF
a sand bar out of countenance, and il
necessary, cause water itself to run up
hill. Let the grand undertaking of max
ing four and one-half feet of water be-
tween the aforesaid points be started I'm.
der such management and we will guar,
sntee success, providing the House OF
Hone throw in PRAYER or two.

Many persons having gotten the
wrong idea that hops are strengthen
ing, have taken to drinking beer and
ale very freely. The consequence is
they feel better for a short time, but
when the reaction comes they are
much weaker than before. Reader, if
you value your lite, lay aside all malt
and alcoholic beverages and put your
trust 10 that Temperance preparation

staunch friend Of his native Erin

Just period, and is now one Of the
most radiant b%Iidegrooms elect in the
city. The young lady who visited
here last season as Miss Mosely

ladies of this session, and there will be
great festivities in that Northern sea-

the palmetto and the pine, and the era

Senator Jones is a self made, self

more familiar with the works of Ed
mund Burke and kindred English
statesmen than any other Senator on

Thousand Dollar shawls.

Providence Journal
Few Of the real Indian shawls are
called for. Oae of the larger houses
sells not more than a dozen such
shawls in a year, and these are the
cheaper ones; that is, the shawls, thu
prices of which are under a thousand
dollars. One good reason is that the
wearer Of a real Indian shawl does not
get the credit of it. So few are worn,
and 80 many initiate so we'll, the real
Indian is not recognized. 1t is said that
in the manufacture Of Indian shawls
not the slightest improvement has
been made since Napoleon introduced
them into Europe by sending one to
Josephine. The wool of the shawl
is obtained from the inner hair
of the Thibet goat. 1t is
cleansed in rice water to
add strength, and spun by women.
Each loom produces about five shawls
q year. Victoria wrings tribute out
Of these poverty stricken weaYers in a
certain number Of shawls yearly. 1t
is said that native Indian shawls
have been imported TO repair shawls
and change centers to suit the wear
ers. The shawls are made in pieces
and put together so deity that the
seems can not be found except by an
expert. In the aggregate a great
many Indian shawls are imported,
but are sold chiefly in the large cities,
where they arc kept in stock, and
the purchaser in a smaller city will
20 there to buy them in order to Sc
lect from a number. Generally the
demand has been active this year,
and a great many have been sold.

LYNCHING AT D%YERsBURG.
An Unworthy Husband Taken
Over the River and Mercl-
lessIy Whipped.

Meals State Gazette,l
A year ago Professor G. j. Lennox
married, at this place, the widow
Foard, who has two daughters. The
marriage was an unhappy one, the
Professor frequently cursing the en-
tire family, and occasionally throwing
hot tea in the girls faces, at the
breakfast table. The town was natu-
rally indignant, aud last Saturday
night the crisis came, almost with a
tragedy. The professor was drunk
and drew a pistol and hourished it
over his wife, with oaths and threats.
He was arrested by Mayor Thomas,
who placed him in the custody Of
the Deputy Town Marshal, for safe
keeping until morning, when by some
sort Of arrangement Lennox was to
leave the town forever. About 10
o'clock that night a body of disguised
men took the prisoner from the mar.
