Running in on my last trip lest night
found nicely dressed young chap on the
grip, half drunk and half asleep. He wore a
frilled shirt, with three glistening gold studs.
When l asked him for his fare he cursed ME.
He was pretty near where he wanted to set
off, and knew that ne could afford to be put
off. l saw that l was angry and got him
by the arm He slipped his hand in his vest
and pulled out one of his studs Here, take
this for my fare till l ride down with you TO-
morrow" he said That was new one on
me- He dropped the stud in my hand. let
him go and he jumped of at Twenty-second
street. Well, sir, do you know what that
stud was' Just an ordinary brass round
topped paper fastener, which be had run
through the stud hole IN bis shirt, bending
the two points underneath to hold 1t, just as
it was used to fasten paper. OF course, the
other studs were the same. He was probably

Condition Of the Crops.

Reports on the condition Of tho crops
throughout the Northwest are somewhat va
ried. In some localities there has been a
scarcity OF moisture, but In most cases the con-
ditions are favorable to growing crops. The
damage by recent frOsts 10 not IS great as
first reported, except to garden truck. Chincl
bugs bave made their appearance in several
places, but as yet have done no damage, Re-
turns from stations in Minnesota aud Dakota
OIL tho line OF the Northern Pacific railroad
are very uniform In their tenor as to the favor
able weather which has existed throughout
tho country during the past seven days. The
heavy rains Of tho week previous have been
followed in most all parts Of this territory BY
cool, cloudy weather, and 10 many cases by
frequent showers; this has enabled the wheat
to stool we'll, and altogether everything has
been favorable for small grains. Some slight
modification OF this state OF affairs exist in the
Red river valley, where they have not been
visited b, the same amount OF rain az in other
parts, and while It has done very well through
out the last week, the county Is again getting
dry and in need Of further rain In the near fu-
ture. There Is also an expression among the
farmers that in the district around CasseIton.
Wheatland aud Tower City, tho high winds
and dry weather Of some time since have dore
some damage which will not bo repaired, and
lnay affect to somo little extent the final out
come Of the crop. So experienced a farmer as
no doubt the estimated damage caused By the
wind has been greatly exaggerated, and that
much that actually occurred has already been
re-seeded. He thinks that with continued fay
orabls weather Minnesota aud Dakota can
count on very fair crop. It is certain that,
taken as whole at this stage, the crop is un-
der very favorable conditione, and what dam
ago actually occurred BY dry weather aud
winds was at such an early date that Opportu-
nifty has been afforded TO repair it.

the mortgage as the law would allow them,
that proved to be none at all under the ruling
OF the Nebraska court. 1t held that the rip

the regular aud infallible processes OF nature

6 SINCLAIR GARDENS,
LONDON, May 7th, 1859.
To the Editor Of the PIONEER.
Dear Sir:-Coufirlning mine Of April 26th,
to-day l beg to send you copy OF the London
Miller. You will see an exhaustive article by
myself on American railway tariffs. You will
notice that wheat that passes through Fargo,
Moorhead or Brainerd is equally tributary to
Superior as to Minneapolis, and that it is now
within the power Of your friends to secure
equal rates of freight for same il they do not
already exist Granted this you will SEQ from
figures published that an actual economy Of
four shillings or 95 cents on 875 lbs. Of wheat
exists on the export Of It from Superior, over
export Of its equivalent Of 2SO lbs. -four from
Minneapolis And as the export Of your s1r-
plus has OF late years principally taken tho
form of the latter, the import Of wheat as
wheat being relatively Insignificant, the
wanton waste has had to come out Of some
ones pocket, need hardly say whose.
do not suggest the whole of this immense
saving can be secured hy growers, As consum-
ers this side will naturally have TO participate,
but do say that 1t is time the old state of
things was modified aud that by the establish
ment Of direct chain OF communications.
Your growers may have the proper basis Of
value at interior points fairly established. i.
Once this secured II useless and expensive
modes OF distribution are pressted in, let those
who support such ruinous methods themselves
pay for them. trust you will publish the
whole or part Of my article In the Miller, max
ing Jour editorial remarks thereon, for too
hitherto generally so little understood, and yet
Of such paramount interest to your agrcultur
lists and our millers. remain

SelCctInE Lands.

JAMESTOWN, N. D., May PIE. V. SmalIey,
editor Of the Northwestern Magazine is In the
city. He came to Dakota for tue purpose OF
selecting $1,000 acres Of land for the Minneso-
ia & Dakota land company, syndicate Of
twin city capitalists. Last year the same CON-
pany purchased 66, 900 acres of wild land from
the Northern Pacific, and according to tho
terms Of the contract is required to purchase
$1,000 acres more this spring. The land is
sold at ~ per acre. For convenience the
Northern Pacific divides its land between Far
20 and Bismarck into fourteen belts. SmalIey
is now here to decide what belt he will select
this $1,000 acres from. Lands bought last
year were in Stuteman, Foster, Barnes, and
Griggs counties. The company will offer in
ducements to emigrauts in the shape Of practi-
cal bonuses to farm the lands. Tho sale will
be Of great advantage to the counties In which
the lands are situated. While in possession Of
the railroad they are not taxable; but assessors
have already got the $4,000 acres bought last
year OH the list. This assessment 10 one Of the
matters SmalIey is now looking after. From
comparison Of figures Of assessment of wild
land 10 six adjoining counties, Stu;snan is
found TO be the lowest and Barnes the highest.
Stutsman is about $35 per section; Barnes SO.
This will be one Of the important considera-
tions in selecting the lands.
