Dcmjth, Minn., March 20, 1871.
"While the people of all sections of our coun
try take a national pride in any of onr rapidly
p.rowintf towns, there are especial reasons wk
J'hilJelnbhn: sL0u.u be rr.;; 'inan usually
interested )u KowtU of I) ninth. To Phila
delphia capital, 0uiBJ. nr,A fought this
section of country is indebted for develop
ment. The substantial progress already m-l!
promises well for a brilliant future.
The youthful city is finely situated. Min
nesota Point, seven miles in length, and
hardly more than a hundred yards in width,
divides 8t. Louis Bay from Lake Superior.
The Point is thickly covered with houses for
half a mile from its base, and the town ex
tends thence on one hand along the bay, and
n the other along the lake.
From the lake shore, parallel with whiih
the main streets run, rises a hill-side up which
the cross-streots are already making their
way, losing themselves finally among old
stumps and plunging suddenly into the
forest. A great doal has been done in the
matter of grading, and the work is actively
continued.
Of the natural advantages which Duluth
possesses a great deal may be said with truth,
though it is difficult to batisfy the sanguine
expectations of the citizens of the place.
There is a good natural harbor in St. Louis
13ay, conveniently entered by a ship-canal
across Minnesota Point. Beside this a break
water has been built, which will not only serve
to protect the canal, but will also afford an
outer harbor for use in spring, even when the
ice has not disappeared from the bay. At
E resent there is no ice remaining in the outer
arbor, and it is a favorite mode of rousing
the ire of Superior men by declaring that it
has all gone to block up the harbor of that
town.
Vast deposits of granite, slate, and sand
stone exist along the valley of the St. Louis
river. In that neighborhood the 'ambitious
farmer can do better by hanging up his
ploughshare and pruning-hook, and organiz
ing a mining company, than by tilling the
Boil. To the northward stretches an unbro
ken forest, principally of hard woods, birch,
and maple, of which the soil is fertile and
likely to prove very productive.
As the telegraph has already informed yon,
the Northern Pacifio llailroad is already
graded almost to the lied river, and rails are
laid for nearly half the distance. The Lake
Superior and Mississippi Railroad furnishes a
highway which makes Duluth the great ship
ping point on the lakes for the products of
Minnesota, at least. Our Canadian friends are
making Duluth an important point on their
line of communication with the lied lliver
country, and, indeed with all the western
portions of British America. Besides all these
signs of fnture growth, the development of
the vast mineral resources of the whole Lake
Superior region must add materially to the
prospects of Duluth. A.
1I0RRIBLE DEATH.
Two Men Suffocated by Foul Air.
The Newark Advertiser of last evening says:
"About half-past 9 o'clock this forenoon two
men were suffocated by carbonic acid gas, or
what is commonly called 'foul air,' at lehlei
een's brewery. It appears that lager beer, in
the process of manufacture, is kept for a time
in large tanks of some eighty or ninety bar
rels capacity, and that after the beer is drawn
out of these tanks it contains carbonic acid gas
sufficient to destroy life instantly.
This fact is well known to all
employes about establishments of this charac
ter, and the 'man-holes,' or trap-doors on top
of the tanks, are immediately opened after the
beer is withdrawn, and so left until the e;as
escapes, amd workmen go down into them and
clean them out. This precaution was in this
instance neglected by Louis Bchlehncr, a man
who had been in Mr. Fehlelsen's employ but
fight days, and although warned by Frederick
lVitelck, another employe, not to enter the tank
until be tested the air in it with a lighted candle,
he entered the man-hole, and almost Immediately
uttered an agonizing cry.
"The engineer, Max Albrecht, hearing the
man's despairing cry. hastened to the tank in
the hope of rescuing him, and climbing to the
top of the tank reached his hands down the
man-hole to help the unfortunate sufferer out.
Both of his hands were immediately clasped in
those of the strangling man at the bottom of the
tank, whose dying agonies lent additional power
to his grasp, and he too lost his balance and fell
into the cavern of death.
"The alarm was immediately given through
out the brewery, and Mr. Fehleisen and the em
ployes of the brewery hastened to the tank and
made every possible effort to save the men, but,
although an opening was forced in the tank, and
the men taken out in a few moments, their
blackened faces, glazed eyes, and distorted fea
tures showed that tne deadly gas had done its
work."
HARD ON A SCHOOL MARM.
A Teacher PunUb.es a Boy aud lu Iletiiru
in lieaten by tbe Youth's Mother.
The Pittsburg Commercial of yesterday says:
Considerable excitement has prevailed In Lin
coln township, for several days past, in conse
quence of an affair which happened between a
lady teacher and the mother of one of her
pupils. Miss Capron, a teacher at Union Hall
School-house, Lincoln township, had occasion,
In her judgment, to correct one of her scholars,
James McCracken, a boy about twelve
years of age. While she Was punishing
him he turned his face in such a position
as to receive a stroke across the lips, which
was not intended. Miss Capron, as soon as
school was dismissed, accompanied the boy to
bis foster father, David McCracken, and ex
plained why she had punished him, and how he
had received the injury to the lip. Mr.
McCracken would not accept the explanation
as satisfactory, and a few days after called a
meeting of the School Board to consider the
matter. The board, however, after hearing his
statement, regarded the case as "too trilling for
action," and disuiiesed the complaint. This, it
was thought, would have ended the case; but
not so. The mother of the boy, Mrs. Bradley,
became quite indignant, and determined to
avenge the wrong bv taking the law into
her own bands. On Thursday last, she went up
from her home to the school-house, and having
assembled a few female friends at a convenient
distance, called Mits Capron out and beat her
with some rods which she had plaited together
for tbe purpose. As legal proceedings have
been commenced by Miss Capronl against all the
parties concerned In the assault upon her, tbe
case is one which Is likely to come before the
courts for f tttleinent.

route toward the "divide." "'nchlto
KCRVEYS FROM Tn TAeiFIC SIDK.
At present the attention of Commander Sclfrldge
is directed particularly to the surveys on the PaclUO
side. On February f, a parly Joined the United
States steamer Kesaca, Nathaniel Greene, Llcu-teuaiit-Cominanrier,
who had been detailed by
the Navy Department to join the Darlen Expedi
tion in place of the Saginaw, recently wreoked on
her voyage to Panama. The vorage down the coast
was an exceedingly Interesting one; the scenery,
though not grand, is very picturesque and beautiful.
in our course were inn rean minnus, wnicn in ior
nicr veai s yielded vast quantities of the gems from
which they derive their name, but a disease has
lately attacked the pearl oysters, and, In conse.
quence, diving for them has almost entirely ceased.
We entered the Tnyra river through the Gulf of
San Miguel, which In many wa.vn is admirably
suited to the raciac terminus of the canal. The
River Tuyra Is upward - of a mile lu width,
and In Its waters the largest shtps may
float up to a point about six miles above
Cheptgana; the Kesaca anchored about
a mile above the latter town, in the centre of the
stream. On the day of our arrival, Friday, Febru
ary 17, Commander Sclfrldge left In a whale-boat,
with four days' provisions, to make a reconnols
sance up the river. During his absence a provision
camp was established In the woods on the northerly
shore of the stream, an observatory erected, and a
tide-gauge placed In position. The tide here hat a
rise and fail of from in to 80 feet, and the current In
the river runs from three to four miles per hour.
The banks are formed of 8 slimy clay, with boulders
and shingle of quartz and flint.
OTHER ROCTBS TNDKR EXAMINATION.
Mr. Duvoll Is Instructed to proceed up the Cue
Valley until he reaches the divide, or meets the
party of Mr. Barnes from the other side. Every
night signals arc to be made and firearms discharged
by both parties, so that, If within hearing distance,
they may come together. In regard to the Cue
route I am able to state, from information received
from Commander Sclfrldge, that It Is one over
which a white man has never passed. Gorgoza, who
explored the Isthmus some years since, never
crossed tbe divide. He went only to the Indian
village of Paya, after which he retraced his steps to
San Mignel bay. The Cue river Is a tributary of the
Tuyra, and runs through a valley which bears Us
name. A ioute up this valley, across the divide will
connect with the I'aranchito, which, by personal ob
servation, is known to be much lower than the Ca
carlca. The two parties will probably meet In the
course of two or three weeks, and the object for
which the Darlen Expedition was organized will be
accomplished. The length of the proposed canal Is
less than f0 miles. About 30 miles of It will be
through a country which Is apparently "dead level."
The greatest elevation In the remaining 20 miles
will not be over ir0 fset, and It is believed that a
point In the divide may be found where it
will not be more than 78 or 100 feet In
height. A report having reached us that It Is only
a six-hours' walk from the Nalplpi river, which Hows
into the Atrato, across a range of hills 400 feet high
io uib i opiua river, wnicn empties into uupica Buy,
Union Bay, and the Paclflc Ocean, Commander 8el
frldge went In the Kesaca to examine the route.
No one has much faith In the statements of our
native informants, and the examination is made in
order to settle the thing one way or the other.
Before leaving the Tuyra Master Kelley was sent to
Plnogana with six weeks provisions for the survey
ing party In the Interior. His Instructions are to
despatch COO pounds of food weekly to the junction
of the Cue river; thence It will be carried In "packs'
to the end of the line. N. V. Tribune's Cor.
PRUSSIAN YORACITY.
How they Picked Poor France to the Very
lloiies.
The French papers feem with complaints
about Prussian voracity. Tbe following letter
addressed to tne opinion rationale gives a
striking account of the manner in which the
Germans have been picking France to the
bone:
"Sir: The Prussians occupy the forts in the
vicinity of Vlncennes. They have disinterred
all the old pieces of shells, etc., and are selling
them. They strip off the few shreds of lead
wnicn naug irom me gutter pipes ot tne ruined
barracKs ana dispose ot them, a or the last few
days they have been tearing up the artillery
platforms and selling the beams at a low price.
The French administration purchases them in
order to diminish the loss occasioned by this
spoliation. At the Polygon there existed a
machine tor tne testing ot cannon; the settinsr
up of this machine cost OOOOf., but the Prus
sians have taken it to pieces, and offer the bits
lorowi.: tne Government nag bought them In
stead of the Jews. The wooden huts at St.
ilshed. and it was with great difficulty that the
Gorman soldiers were persuaded to sell the lot
