FUTURE MOVEMENTS.

The formal business of the annual meeting
OF the American Medical association was
finished yesterday at p. m. and the delegates
are now at leisure to enjoy themselves in a
different way. st. Paul has endeavored to
furnish temporary home for the strangers in
her midst, and unobtrusivsly tried to vary the
labors of the delegates IN their official capacity
by supplying few breathing spells in the way
of social pleasures. The work of the conven-
ton is finished, the tension of official duty has
been relaxed, and it now remains only
for the delegates, their wives,
daughters and sweethearts to enter
upon season of social enjoyment
which has heretofore been hsmpered by a sense
They are now free to accept The invitations
rendered them to become The guests of the
Northwest, of an empire in extent, stretching
FROM the head of navigation of the grandest
river in the worll to the confines OF her
msiesty's dominions on the north, to the
Rocky mountains on the west. They have
been told that they will be welcomed with
open hands to hosptable homes in every city
and hamlet in this vast empire. To
guests the region they are now and
will soon visit this is an, undiscovered
country, showing comparatively little of the
culture and refinement Of the older portions of
the union, except that which springs from
nature. The GLOBE can assure the guests OF
the Northwest that ono pent up U tica con-
fines" them-they one and all can roam at
their own s'sweet wilP' where'er their fancy
dictates. They can take ''the wings of the
morning" and HE themselves to regions that
but few years ago was the home of the In
dian and the buffalo or they can "fold their
tents like the Arabs" in the evening aud
awaken to witness the sun rise from the
bosom of the great unsalted sea,
and following the example of Isaac
Walton, entice breakfast from
it's impid waters. Should they not feel like
travelling thus far they can find within a few
hours drive many pleasant lakes and places
of resort, where they can revel in Arcadian
pleasures to their hearts content.
Leaving the fanciful, however-which is
only fanciful in the language used-the dele
gates have thrown off the cares OF business
and are now prepared to enjoy themselves like
ordinary mortals. They have been turned
loose to go wheresoever they will. Many of
them, unfortunately, were compelled by
either private or official duties to re-
turn to their homes at once. A large
majority, however, will take this opportunity
to visit portion OF the country which they
have heard SO much about, and Of which they
have seen SO little. They will look upon st.
where they wander they will find that all
roads lead to St. Paul, where they one and all
are assured of cordial welcome.
A large number will accept the invitation
to visit White Bear lake to-day. Others will
pass through Minneapolis to Lake Mime
tOnka.
DR.. J. H. Murphy has secured
two special sleepers on the st. Paul &
Manitoba road, for party of forty who will
go through to Winnipeg, leaving on Monday
night. This party will be absent four or five
days and will have an opportunity to see the
fertile valley OF the Red River of the North.
Under the pllotage of such genial guide as
DR.. Murphy, and the hospitable welcome
which will everywhere greet them along the
route, the trip cannot fail to be one OF pleas.
ure.
A large number contemplate a trip to the
valley OF the Yellowstone, and some will ex-
plore the wonders OF the National park. Still
others will content themselves by remaining
in st. Paul, with occasional short visits to
the numerous lakes IN the vicinity OF the
city.
Taking it altogether the distinguished Wis
itofs will find no difficulty in finding ways
and methods of enjoying themselves during
their N onth's stay in the Northwest.
