A E S S A 1 N O O SUIT A N flTVTVSUB O S O This was the title of aa interesting lec ture, the last of the course, delivered be fore the Library Association on Tuesday owning by General C. C. Andrews. Notwithstandingthebad walking, the house was wall filled. The lecturer gave many important facta bearing on the growth of our young city. He said the people af St Cloud had it in their power to be the founders of a leading city. But it required that their business men should be alert and active in promo ting measures for its growth. The best moans for buildlag a city waa a great route of commerce andtravel. The Asiatic route had built up many cities—Tyre, Alexan dria, Venice, Lisbon, aad now cevere the Thames with forest of masts. There waa amoral eertaiaty it would sooa change its count, cross the Pacific and land on the American shore. Buckle had said the rich est countriee now were those in which man was the most active. Whether or act St. Cloud would derive benefit from the Asiat ic route depended upon the activity and enterprise of its people. There was a probability of the Northern Pacifio Railroad being built in a few years, and it would very likely have the Asiatic trade. That route therefore was of vital importance to St. Cloud and all her peo ple, to the very children at school, should hare the subject at their tongues' end.— He reviewed the whole subject ofthe North ern Pacific railroad, the explorations of Lewis and Clark, and of Stevens cited many facts as to the resources and devel opment of the territory it would traverse its necessity in enabling the Government to supply its military posts, control the In aad what was more to develop and build up the country. Even if the road did not come by St. Cloud, its construction would so earich Minnesota that its effects would be highly favorable to this city.— But it could be got here if the people of St Cloud did their best. The road would be built aa soon as the subsidy—one-third of the whole cost of the read—was obtained from Congress. It waa necessary to edu cate Congress nnd the country np to thestoringflourfor proper standard. The people should send offpapers containing articles on the sub ject, especially those shewing the immense resources of the country comprising their west nnd aortb-west. Before a city could be built np the coun try areuad it must be built up. Leaving out af view a railroad ta the Pacific, there was country good enough in Minnesota tributary to St. Cloud, .if developed, to make this an important city. It mustb* pierced with roads. Agriculture must bo stimulated, and all its duties, including the dairy, be made fashionable. He referred to the effect the Georgia of Virgil had on Roman farming. His verses clothed with verdure aad fertility fields that had long lain waste. Prom St. Cloud should be radiated an influence that would impart fresh enterprise to the cultivation of the soil. The growing villages in the country were supplying much of the retail trade of their surrounding settlements, and St. Cloud to be a trading point must begin to lay the foundations of wholesale trade Manufactures, of which wood was the principalmaterial, should be increased. An agricultural implement factory would be profitable here, aad give employment to upward of fifty men. Instead of sending off our green and dry hides, ws should tan them here and make our own boots and shoes. There were many things such aa low taxes, economy of city and county govern menu, good schools, Ac, Ac. which ren dered a town attractive. Wealthy people who sometimes wished to remove to this part of the country for their health would be influenced by suck thing* In ordertocarry into effect measures for the prosperity of the city, it was desirable that its business influence be organized.— The city of St. Paul had derived advantage from her chamber of commerce. An asso ciation ia the nature of a Council of Busi ness would organise the public spirit and enterprise of the place and cause opportu nities to be taken advantage of as they arose. But the grandestfieldof all was ths mak ing tke city the capital of influence. To convey merchandise bridges were built, and mountains tunneled. But the influ ence of a people's will and character trav eled with the sunlight. The intelligence and public spirit of a city, the enterprise and honor of its merchants, the skill of its mechanics, the candor and ability of its press, the eloquence nnd devotion of its pulpit, the ability aad honor of its learned professions constituted its moral power.— In proportion as these elements were aug mented would the influence of the oity be far-reaching. In conclusionfasmads a review of facts encouraging to the prospects of St. Cloud. To make it a large and prosperous city, its people must not distrust themselves bnt do their best. It was most gratifying re flection that their work was beneficent one of development nnd civilisation that city and country must grow together. Theirs was tka task, if they fulfilled it. to dot the wilderness with cottages, to cloths it with waviag harvests, aad "To (cottar ploaty o'er a smiling load." SAMS or PnornuTT.—-GortonftBurbask have said their water sowar witk wkat ha provements were left remaining after the late fire, to P. B. Thompson, of Cold Spring, for $6,000. Mr. Thompson was, until lately, one cf the firm of Clarke, Wait ft Co., proprietors of the Celd Spring mill. Wr understand that Mr. T. will pot up a first class mill this Sanson on the site of his new purchase, which is about two miles fron 81. Cloud. J. B. Mills has purchased the dwelling house of A. B. Curry, on Welles avenue, paying therefor $4,000. The location is a beautiful one. VICTIMISED.—Mr. Z. E. B.

It is alive place, having two grist mills, a saw mill, stave factory, two furniture factories, planing mill, a good hotel, stores, &c., Ac. A few days since we paid a Visit to the newflouringmills of Messrs. Davis ft Beal, the former of this oity, the latter of Clearwater. This enter prise wasfirstcommenced in July last, be gan work in November, and was fully com pleted in January of the present year. The building is 40x50, four stories high. The basement, in which are the water wheals, is six feet high thefirstflooris thirteen feet the second, eleven feet the third, fourteen feet the fourth, eleven feet and the entire height, from the base ment to the top of the cupalo, sixty-six feet. Oa thefirstflooris the tig tag separator aad the smutter. Here is also a nice piece ot machinery, called a suction fan, whioh is ured primarily for oleanicg corn, but al so sucks the stoam from the burrs, thus keeping the spouts free from the dough that there would otherwise be. It also keeps the space around the burrs entirely free from dust. On this floor are likewise the storing elevator, connecting with thepepsia weigher on ths second story, bran bins and a good storage room. On the next floor are four ruas of first-class burrs, each two having a sepa rate water wheel as motive power. Just by the burrs are two wheel* for hoisting tae water gates,, and close by are the ele vator and hopper gates, all within easy reach of the miller. There are two flour packers—a Moline patent, which will pack from lorty to sixty barrels per hour and a custom packer, for use with either bar rels or sacks. In one corner is the bran bin of merchant workforretailing. When thie ia full the contents can be let off into the bin below. The business offise ia on the second floor. A door also opens out into large two-story wareroom, used for shipping. Twenty feet of one end of the third floor is used entirely for storing grain, and is capable of holding tea thousand bushels. This space ie divided off into bins for sep arating the grain according to kind and quality. This department contains and is over na machinery, ao that the heavy pressure can in no wise affect the working of any part. Ta tka left of this is a spec ial garner holding five hundred bushels, so that if a farmer brings considerable amount of grain to be ground, it is put in there instead of the storage bins, nnd kept until conveyed to the hoppers. Adjoining this are two other garners for oats aad corn, from each of which, ia making feed, the spouts bring an equal quantity, so that wheu taken up again by the elevators the two kinds are thoroughly mixed. Another set of garners, holding fifteen hundred bushels, stands directly over the stones. Into these the grain is put after having gone through the smutter and teen thor oughly cleaned. When here it is ready for grinding and goes directly to the burrs. Besides these is still another garner, capa ble of containing the "middlings" of fifty barrels offlour,which are collected there while the mill it running on merchant work. Wken full it ie drawn off and re ground, making what Mr. Davis calls "In dian" flour. People here know tolerably well what that is. On thisflooris a mer chant bolt with capacity of one hundred aad fifty barrels per day. The full capac ity of the mill is over two hundred barrels per day. A bolt for sifting corn meal is also near by. A packing chest, holding fifty barrels, stands directly over the Mo line packer, already spoksa of. On tke fourth story la the machinery lor driving tke elevators also a coarse screen for cleaning tke grain before storing it. The motive power of the mill consists of three water wheels—"Buckeye Double Tur bine"—two 86 inches in diameter, each driving two runs of stone and the third, 26 inches in diameter, drives all the bal ance of the machinery, elevators, separa tors, smut machines, Ac. The amount of power derived from these small wheels is wonderful. No expense has been spared in making ikis mill what it is, one of the very best in the State. The machinery is all first-class and of the most improved kinds. Messrs. Davis & Beal may well challenge compar ison with any other mill in point of excel lence, even if not in size. Close by the mill is a cooper shop, and a stack house for staves, Ac, for the manu facture of barrels. Attached to the mill is a large, comfortable shed, in which farm ers may shelter and feed their horses and oxen whiie waiting for their grists. The ealesroom of the Clearwater Mills in this city is at theflourand feed store of DavisftClark, corner of Washington ave nue and Lake street. Wecan conscientious ly recommend tkeir flour. Having sam pled, to our complete satisfaction, a barrel left some days since, we have no hesitation in advising all who want a No. 1 article of family flour to use the Clearwater Mills' make. IBSCBABOB.—In presenting the advan tages offered by the Old Phoenix Mutual, of Hartford, Conn., A. B. Curry, the State Agent, ia makiag Life Inturance decidedly popular. When people begin to under atand tke principle involved in and tke benefits obtained by this system, they are quick to avail themselves of it. Nothing so certainly insures a comfortable living, or indeed a eompeteney, ta a person's fam ily in ease cf his death aa does Life Insur ance, aad there ie no other company which offers the same inducements as the Phoenix. Mr. Curry will write up policies at any time. Tn* OvaatAsn MAIL.—A Washington correspondent of the St. Paul Dispatch saye: The overland mail contract of Ruffee and Movrill for carrying the mail from Fort Abercrombie to Helena, Montana, has been ordered discontinued on the first of April next. It is doubtful whether an appropriation can be obtained to establish a daily or tri weekly stage and mail route. Wkat the country wsuts is a regular line of coaches, carrying the mails and ex* prose, from Fort Abercrombie to Helena. A daily or triweekly service would greatly aid ia settling aad developing tke intetme diate country but a weekly service, at least, is indispensable.

When grain is sowed broadcast, some is covered too deeply, some not deep enongh, some not covered at all. Consequently SO ripen earlier, and are not as liable to beare injured bj the rust. This is because the grain is planted evenly and regularly, and me does not come up at all, and the rest comes np very irregularly. The stalks are irregular in height, some nearly ripe, while others are just in blossom they do not ripen as early, and are more liable to be injured by the rust. This is because they planted nt differemt depths, and are not equally nourished and protected. It will be found on examination, that the stalks that are shortest and that bear the shortest heads, have their roots lying near the surface of the ground, where evapora tion has taken np the moisture from tke roots, and consequently tbey have become shriveled and weak and these stalks Ikat bear large heads, hare been well planted and have their roots lying from two to three inches deep. Then if it is tka well planted grains that produce the largo aad wellfilledheads, certainly it is important to have them all well planted, wkiek can only be accomplished by using a goodDrill.
