Mrs. Braddiok resumed her work,—etitoh, stieh, stich, —then she fastened off, eut the end of wool, and proceeded to fill her needle from another shade. "Margaret!" Mn.

However, she's refused him." •'And I don't wonder at it," replied Mrs. Braddick, quite energetically "if that's Richard's way of making himself agreeable, he'l) never succeed. If you bad been half so rude to me as he has been to Miss Linden, I should have said'No* at once." "WeH, 'All's well that ends well,' and there's no danger of your having her for a sister-in-law." "I'm not sure that I'm glad Charles," returned Mis. Braddick, thoughtfully. ."I was very fond of Miss Linden I think, indeed, I am quite sure that I wish she Would have married Richard, but of course one could not expect it." Charles Braddick looked at his wife in unmitigated surprise. "Yes ,my,.dear,' continued she, "I should be glad to have her for a sister I quite trusted in her, and I've been much happier since knew her, I know all that you think: it would have been no match for Richard, as she was a governess but we might have got over that she never taught any chil dren but ours, so, of course, never re ceived any money from any one. I can see exactly your,ideas it would not have been pleasant tor any one to have it in their power to say, \Vfe paid Mrs. Richard Etheredge so much, a quarter for teaehiog our children but then, you see, no one but ourselves could say that, and of course we should never say it, and so it never would be said.

Not exactly afraid, but one is never certain whether ho's in jest or earliest, and it makes one feel uncomfortable. Of course Mlsa Linden could not like him, but do you know, Charles, I like her all the better for refusing hint Many a woman in her place would have accepted him at whether she liked him or not. What a settlemeut it would have been for her! I call it noble, disinterested, unmercenary." "Pooh, my dear, she did not care about him."

"I feel sure of it, Charles, and I think, it most interesting. If she had been here a little longer, and we hadist, become better acquainted, she would have told me all about it." "I sure—" began Mr. Braddick, hesitatingly. "Yes, so am I," said his wife, com placently, "and I dare say the reason she left so suddenly was on account of Richard. What a pity, because Rich ard u, sure to go to Trenholm, he likes It so much better than Etheredge Court, and then there would be no reason why ihe should not be here.

"1- believe, Charles, you are still afraid about Richard. I think you and Richard are two of the most incompre hensible men I know. Richard has quite deceived me I shall never trust to understanding him again and I am beginning to think that I may be almost as much misled about you." Mr. Braddick shrugged his shoul ders, his conscience was not quite easy, and the inner voice said, "More so." But Mr. Braddick had made no spoken comment. "I should so like to have Miss Lin den for a sister!" The words, as Mrs. Braddick uttered them, had something almost pathetic, in them, and as her husband gazed on his wife this pleading for her unknown ri val smote upon his heart. He bent forward, and kissed her. And she, un conscious of his thoughts, returned the kiss, and said:— "Ah I think you will yet help me about Miss Linden*'' [TO E CONTINUED.] PROM THE RED RIVER OF HOBTH. W a a E Interesting Notes of a, Visit to the Hyperboreans—The Great Govern ment Trains—Forts and Garrisons— &c., &c. We find in the Chicago Republican the following taken from the Winona Republican: Mr. Wm. Barclay, a resident of this county, who has just returned from a trip as far north as Georgetown, on the Red River of the North, furnishes us with some interesting items from the points visited by bim. Starting from St. Cloud with one of the numerous trains engaged in transporting' Goven ment supplies, he visited Forts Ransom, Wadsworth and. Abercrombie from the latter point .continuing his journey to Georgetown. The roads leading to these outposts present a scene oi activi ty and life that remind one of the cara vans of the East. No less than two thousand teams are constantly employed in transportation of supplies between St. Cloud and the above named forts, going in trains of from twenty five to one hundred teams •—oxen, horses, and mules constituting the motive power:: These ferta are garrisoned by, the Tenth United States Regular Infantry {mounted in summer), the soldiers being reinforced .by large numbers of Sioux and Winnebago In dians, who have been necessitate^ by want, and hunger to, lease their reserva tion on the Tipper Missouri arid seek protection at the hands of the' fepie sfktativeBof tne Great Father at Wash ington in eommtnd at the respective forts., The number of Indians at Fort Abercrombie is about two hundred, at to four hundred. From Abercrombie to Georgetown the distance is eighty miles over a vast level plain, with nothing to relieve the eye in winter but groups of leafless trees. Georgetown possesses all the features peculiar to an extreme frontier settlement. Like all Indian villages, the town site has no restrict tions—squatter sovereignty, pure and undented, taking precedence of either full covenant warranties or quitclaims, allows each person to locate nearly wheresoever he may please, and gives to the town- an air of magnificent dis tances. It contains a population of about five hundred souls, composed principally of what are termed Red River halt-breeds (being a mixture of French and Scotch, with the Indian blood). They follow agricultural pur suits iu summer and trapping in winter. The soil is good, and timber and water are abundant in the vioinity. Their success in taking' furs up to the time Mr. Barclay left there had been cxclg lent. And the quantity of furs that will be taken in the northern portion oi this State this winter will be largely in exoees of what it has been for several years past. About thirty-five miles from Sauk Centre heavy lumbering operations ate being prosecuted—one firm, Moore & McClure, being en gaged in getting out five million feet for the Sauk Centre market alone.— They have a steam saw mill located in the pineries saw their lumber there— and draw it fifteen miles to the river, where it is piled for. rafting in! the spring. VBOl BT. PAUL, hit Si. PACX, Feb. 24th, 1868. From Our Special Correspondent. DEAR "OM."—YOU see I have been away from St. Paul for a week. Was obliged (o be absent myself, and allow the machine to run itself. I hated to go I was afraid something would hap pen but a concatenation of uncontrol lable circumstances impelled metomy destruction. I left the safety and hon or of the Stats in the keeping of those generous men who sacrifice themselves for a period of sixty days for a $5 per diem consideration. I was invited to talk at Red Wing. I went down. It was a cold day. Pre vious to starting I bad taken the pre caution to say "Pass," to Mr. Carpenter of the stage line. He allowed me to "take it up," which I did. There were some seven or eight Paas-engers on the coach. I don't know how well this dead-head business pays, but sup pose that by doing a large business it can be made lucrative. I went down to Red Wing to bore a confiding audience. I succeeded to perfection. One man wanted me to stay another night and bore a lot of bar posts for him. I told the facetious cuss that I was not a two-inch augur. He said nevertheless, I was a large bore,— I allowed the unmannerly peasant to ex trusting to Time, who -'At last makes all thingi eTea," for my revenge. Red Wing is a neat town of some 4,000 inhabitants. It has a meeting house, a school house, a University House and a Court Bouse. The lattrr is occupied by Sheriff Chandler, uad he fits in there as though he had SMod still and allowed the institution to grow up around him. Red Wing is a two story town. First story is on the levee, and the entrance to the next story is through the Metropolitan Hotel, up a pair of stairs. Davis & Snyder, of the Red Wing Republican, aria1 Ed. Otis, of the Red Wing Argus, live in the second story and rent rooms to a few other christians, of whom there are many here. A ride of eighteen miles brought us to Lake City, a fine town. Large one, too—2,013 volera at. the last election, and a bad day for election, then. 'Tis night, and the tranquilness of extreme tranquility bangs over this village.— There is a light in the Leader office, and, while our folks are swapping hor ses 1 go over there and shake bands with McMasters, and learn that the county seat has not yet made its ap pearance in town, though it is anxious ly looked for. At Wabasha things are not as bust ling and driving, as you would expect in a city of 4,052 voters. Business is dull. Some of the electors are out of town. But otherwise serenity is here. Find the fragrant Rose iu poor health has been ill all winter, and should be in bed now, but his indomitable will keeps him up and around, though while the spirit is willing and strong the flesh is weak. (N. B.—The county seat of Wa basha Co is still located at this place.) At Winona, found business livelier than at any point yet visited. Sinclair, of the Republican, was quite ill. He is one of those indefatigable workers who never say die, but are found by the "grim monster" in harness. The Republican office has just been remov ed into one of the best arranged build ings tor a printing office in the West. Through the politeness of Mr. Dye, bus iness manager of the office, I was shown through the new building. It is charm ingly arranged for the comfort and con venience of both employers and em ployed, and is a monument to the in dustry and perseverance of D. Sinclair & Co., and a credit to the city of Wi nona. Green new daily is flourishing fine ly, as it deserves to. The Winonians are looking forward to.the speedy completion of tho "cut off," and hold that it will mark a new era of prosperity for them. There is not much through travel via Wi :na this winter, and the depot-like bustle that- used to exist around the Huff House has departed, yet Cockrell & Williams continue to keep, as always, the very best hotel in the west Left Winona Monday, and at Kasson met the Joint Committee sent down by the Legislature to visit Wasioja, and in vestigate the Northwestern College building at that place, which it is pro posed shall be donatedtothe State, and a Normal School established therein. The. building is situated on a command ing hight is 60x40 feet, two'stories high, and is capable of accommodating two hundred scholars. If the State ac cepts the offer, the building will be put in thorough repair at the expense of thet citizens of Wasioja, The offer is certainly a liberal one, as in return nothing is asked for a vear or more, .arid then only a small appropriation for payment of teachers. This a pleas ing episode in the history, of State In stitutions. On Friday a funny little incident oc curred in the Merchants' Hotel office. A valiant young man, about two-.thirds full of whisky, was manifesting a de sire to punch everybody's head, mash in their skulls, ehaw up and blot out at least half the world. He was raving. Major Mclirath, Chief of Police, step ped up by hhvside, beck towards, put his arm iround toe irate individual's, pinioning them securely, then' lift ing aim very much as he would'an um brella, brought bis body into a horison tal position and walked out,'depositing his burden finally on the steps of the Globe Hotel. The young man picked himself up and amid the shouts of the amused spectators made a frantic dash up Third street. The Committee on Charitable Insti tutions returned on Saturday evening from their visit to the Insane Asylum at St. Purer. They express themselves as highly pleased with the management of the Hospital. There are now in the Hospitalfortreatment one hundred and CeatiuAfd onFawrUa Jfege* I I
