TBS SITUATION OP THE INFANT CITY THE IM
TROVEMENTS THAT HATE BEEN MADE ITS
FUTURE TROSrECTS THE NORTHERN PACIFIC
RAILROAD.
Duluth, Minn., March 20, 1871.
"While the people of all sections of our conn
try take a national pride in any of our rapidly
wowing towns, there are especial reasons w"
PhiMelnbi-s siOuia be roo:; inan Usually
interested in 5;owtu of Dolnth. To Phila
delphia capital, tatuiw ,nA foresight this
section of country is indebted for develop
stent. The substantial proeresa already
promises well for a brilliant future.
The yonthful city is finely situated. Min
nesota Point, seven miles in length, and
hardly more than a hundred yards in width,
divides St. 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
on the other along the lake.
From the lake shore, parallel with whi3h
the main streets run, rises a hill-side up which
the cross-streets are already making their
way, losing themselves finally among old
stumps and plunging suddenly into the
forest. A great deal 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 satisfy the sanguine
expectations of the citizens of the place.
There is a good natural harbor in St. Louis
Bay, 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
ioe has not disappeared from the bay. At
present there is no ice remaining in the outer
harbor, 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 np 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 you,
the Northern Pacifio It ail road is already
graded almost to the Bed river, and rails are
laid for nearly half the distance. The Lake
Superior and Mississippi Bailroad 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 Dnluth an important point on their
line of communication with the lied River
country, and, indeed with all the western
portions of British America. Besides all these
signs of future growth, the development of
the vast mineral resources of the whole Lake
Superior region must add materially to the
prospects of Duluth. A.
HORRIBLE 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 eras, or
what is commonly called 'foul air,' at ieulel
een'B 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 gas
escapes, aad 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. Fehleisen's employ but
eight days, and although warned by Frederick
Witeick, another employe, not to enter the tank
until he tested the air in it with alighted candle,
he entered the man-hole.and almost Immediately
littered 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 the deadly gas had done its
work."
HARD OX A SCHOOL MARX.
A Teacher Puuiab.es a Boy and lu Return
In lieateu by the 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 Ilall
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 6he 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
his 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 trifling for
action," and dismissed the complaint. This, it
was thought, would have ended the case; but
sot 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 Mies Capron out and beat her
with some rods which she bad plaited together
for the purpose. As legal proceedings have
been commenced by Miss Caproul against all the
parties concerned in the assault upon her, the
case is one which U likely to come before the
courts for ettleinent.

SURVEYS FROM Tn TAdlFIC BIDE.
At present the attention of Commander Selfrldge
is directed particularly to the surveys on the Facine
side. On February f, a party Joined the United
States steamer Hesaca, iNatiianiei ureene, lieutenant-Coin
mander, 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 the Pearl islands, which in for
mer veais yielded vast quantities of the geras from
which they derive their name, but a disease has
lately attacked the pearl oysters, and, lu conse.
quence, diving for them has almost entirely ceased.
We entered the Tuyra river through the Gulf of
San Miguel, which lu many ways Is admirably
suited to the Paciac terminus of the canal. The
Klver Tuyra is upward of a mile in width,
and in its waters the largest ships may
float up to a point about six miles above
Chcplgana; the Resaca anchored about
a mile above the latter town, In the centre of the
stream. On the day of our arrival, Friday, Febru
ary II, Commander Selfrldge left in a whale-boat,
with four da.vs' provisions, to make a reconnols
snnce up tho river. During his absence a provlslon
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 has a
rise and fail of from ir to SO feet, and the current In
the river runs from three to four miles per hour.
The banks are formed of a slimy clay, with boulders
and shingle of quartz and flint.
0TC1ER R0UTB3 CNDXR EXAMINATION.
Mr. Duvoll is instructed to proceed up the Cue
Valley until he reaches the divide, or meets tho
party of Mr. liarnes from the other side. Every
night signals are to be made and firearms discharged
by both parties, so that, if within bearing distance,
they may come together. In regard to the Cue
route I am able to state, from information received
from Commander Selfrldge, that It is one over
which a white man has never passed. Gorgoza, who
explored the Isthmus some years since, never
crossed the divide. He went only to the Indian
village of Paya, after which he retraced his steps to
San Miguel bay. The Cue river is a tributary or the
Tuyra, and runs through a valley which bears its
name. A ioute up this valley, across the divide! will
connect with the Paranchlto, which, by personal ob
servation, is Known to ne mucii lower man tne ca
carica. Tne two parties will probably meet lu 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 r0 miles. About 80 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 lftO feet, and it is believed that a
point in the divide may be found where it
will not be more than 75 or too feet in
height. A report having reached us that it is only
a six-hours' walk from the Nalpipl river, which flows
ini wo Atraio, across a range or nins 400 feet high
10 nits 1 upica river, wnicn empties loco uupica tiny,
Llmon Bay, and the Pacific Ocean, Commander Sel
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 war or the other.
Before leaving the Tuyra Master Kelley was sent to
Plnogana with six weeks provisions for the survey
ing party in uie interior, rus instructions are to
uespaten uuu pounus 01 ioou weekly to tne junction
of the Cue river; thence it will be carried in "packs'
to the end of the Hue. A'. Y. Tribune's Cor.

How they Picked Poor Frauce to the Very
UUUIH,
The French papers feem with complaints
about Prussian voracity. The following letter
addressed to tne upmon rationale elves a
striking account of the manner in which the
Germans have been picking u ranee to the
bone:
"Sir: The Prussians occupy the forts In the
vicinity of Vlncennes. They have disinterred
all the old pieces of ehells, etc., and are selling
them, iney strip on tne lew shreds or. lead
which hang from the gutter pipes of the ruined
barracks and dispose of them. For 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 tne roiygon mere existed a
machine for the testing of cannon; the settinsr
up of this machine cost 9000L, but the Prus
sians have taken it to pieces, and offer the bits
for500f.; the Government has bought them in
stead 01 tne jews, me wooaen nuts at at,
Maur, which cost 700,0001.. were beine demo
lished, and it was with great difficulty that the
Gorman soldiers were persuaded to sell the lot
as it stoou.
