thing unusual had happened. Mr.
Braddiok threw himself down upon the
sofa, but said nothing. 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. Braddiok threaded her needle,
and laid it down on the table.
"Has anything happened, Charles?

"Miss iindeu!" responded Mrs.

amazement. "I thought Richard hated
her."
"Well, I never thought otherwise till
very lately. 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

"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

something rather striking and distingue,

"Not at all. Still it seems tranoe.

"Pshaw."
"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

"I think, perhaps, after afl, w6 had

turned Mr. Braddick.
"Now, Charles, why you should %e

dren's good arid for'my comfort, I can
not understand and, besides, as a mere
matter of gratUtade, think what we
owe to her for nursing Charley throngh
the fever."
Mr. Braddick was silent for a mo
ment,
"Our best way of showing our grati
tude is by allowing Miss Linden to pur
sue her own course, and not to intrude
when she so plainly shows us she wishes
to have no connection with Ethcred«rc
Court."
"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*''

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.

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
