SffItcGte, Notes.
The water has fallen to nearly five feet, the
frosty weather tending to stop the regular
flow Of water.
On Monday there will be a special term OF
the district court, to try an old case, provid-
ing the attorneys on both sides are ready.
The steamer Cleon went to Taylors Falls on
her regular trip yesterday, but as soon as
hard freezing weather comes on she viii go
into winter quarters at oseeola, Wis.
The Rev. Dr. Carroll will preach special
sermon this morning in the Presbyterian
church on 'The Duty of the Hour-the
Claims of Our Country on Her Christian
Patriots.n
Yesterday we had the largest crowds on the
streets that we have seen so far this season,
and farmers, with their wives and daughters,
were out in full force. The merchants APP
peared to be doing thriving business, and
everyone, with the exception of Il few sore
heads, wore smiling faces.
Capt. Geo. Knapp, of the steamer Cleon,
reports that on Friday evening near Hudson,
while returning from st. Paul, they had con-
siderable difficulty with the ice, and they had
to move stern first 50 that the wheel might
break the solid ice. The night was perfectly
still and with the sharp frost quite thick
ness Of ice was formed.
Some parties during Saturday morning
had an e1figy strung over the center of
Second street mmediately in front of the
postofice. The action was a very foolish
one, but yet such as would engender bad
feeling. We trust that no one in this city
will be guilty of such an act again, and we
are sure that had the perpetrators given any
consideration TO the act, they would not have
done it.
The November term of the district court
begins here on Tuesday next. There are
fifty-four cases on the civil Docket the small
est number, says County Clerk Bennett,
since he has been clerk. Nearly all the old
cases have been wiped out, and the docket
may be said to be a new one. The grand
jury will be sworn in, the judge will deliver
his charge, and a primary reading of the
cases will be gone through with. The crimi-
nal calendar is very light, the case of arson
in the burning of Samuel Judd's house at
Marine, being the principal and almost only
one.
On Friday night there was another COOS
hunting party who went down the lake on
the steamer Ben Hersey, and they came back
with fourteen geese. The evening was a
most pleasant one and they enjoyed them
selves thoroughly. The following gentlemen
went down to Hastings to meet Mat Clark,
who was returning from Wabasha: d. II.
Hersey, G. P. Gregory, w. S. Conrad, j. G.
Netheway, Turf McCartray, Geo. ID. Hall, w.
6. Clark, Jr., and Sam Register They were
elated over their success, and we do not
blame them, as such fourteen monster geese
are seldom seen in these quarters.
Last evening the Democrats had a mon
ster iollification over the election of Cleveland
and Hendricks. The procession started on
Main street. passing through all the priuei-
pal streets. There were fireworks in album
dance, and Greek and other fire showed TO
the best advantage from the heights. A
large number of residences were gaily decor
ated with flags and bunting, whilst illumina-
tons were the general rule. Many of the
buildings made fine appearance. In the
procession were a number of trgnsparenccs
with suitable notices, and a triumphsl car,
surmounted by an eagle with outstretched
wings, and draped with well arranged red,
white and blue bunting, received much
cheering as it passed the many spectators.
The streets were perfect jam, and it was
one of the most successful demon strations
ever held in the city. Speeches were made
from stand in the square at the city hail.
and a better location could not be selected
The several speakers counsclled camness,
but yet insist upon a fair count Of the ballots
The cheering at times was simply tremendous
and the people shouted themselves hoarse
Hon. Z. w, Durant, &. p. Gregory, j. n.
Castle and others spoke, and when the
names of Cleveland and Hendricks were
mentioned the vast assemblage made the
welkn ring. All joined in making it a
success, and in the procession could be seen
Republicans walking sine by side with Demo
Gratis. This was as it should be, because
after the election was over all differences
ought to be dropped, because this country
could get on well were we all out of it.
The Democratic jubilee at stilwates Satur-
day evening was complete success. The
City hall was packed with people, and hum
DIRE Is could not gain admission, indeed
there is no audience room in the city that
could have contained the great crowd. Judge
Lemichke presided, and a rousing speech
was made 10y Judge Hathaway. as the repre-
sentative of the young Democracy. or tais,
and after speeches, some synopsis will appear
in the GLOBE of Monday. part of
the proceedings of the evening was a pro-
cesson of 400 torch bearers and a large
broom brigade. The buildings and houses
along the line Of march were brilliantly =
Illuminated and presented an exceeding
demonstrative and patriotic appearance.
How the good ladies, whose part in the iolli-
fcation this feature was, did SO much work
in so short time is quite marvel, but they
did il splendidly, bless them. just as the
procession was starting spark from lighted
hambeau fell upon quantity OF fireworks
that were to be used along the line OF march
and for a short time there was an immense
display. Fortunately there was but one &C.
cicent resulting from the premature explo-
sions, Hon. E. w. Durant being struck on
the chin by rocket, u cut being made from
which the blood ran freely. Though the no.
tice was only promulyatcl at noon the occa-
sion was . great event in Saltwater, and the
proceedings were witnessed and participated
in by the largest number of people who have
assembled together in many years Cleye-
lands election is hailed with the most pro-
found satisfaction, and all our business peo-
pie and those engaged in industrial pursuits
thank God and take fresh courage.
