January 10, 188.1. $
Dear Frekmatt It is some time since I
last wrote promising more anon. So to-dav
1 will try to redeem In part my promise. I
am still in the "Golden Northwest," as the
admirers of this region call this favored
land, 21S miles porthwe-t from St. Paul, in
the famous "Red River Valley," the great
wheat belt of the northwest, hut while per
using the columns of the Freeman, that
ever welcome visitor, I often imagine that I
am once more twt in old Cambria, where
Democracy rules the day and where my
"old boss." Gust. Lnther, jo well fills the
office of 5heri"ff . and I really lone for a so-
Journ in the midst of my old friends and co
' workers in the noble work of reform which
j is now sweeping this glorious country of
ours like an avalanche.
; The weather in this section has been rath
! er cold for some time, the thermometer co
i ing down to 39 below zero, but ope don't
' feel the cold near so much hfTe as they
would In Pennsylvania, as the atmosphere is
j dry. I have handled the square when the
thermometer was 30 below zero and did
not suffer verv much from cold, which is
more than a man could endure In the East.
The summers here are delightful, and as
the farmer has nothing to do in winter but
market his grain and prepare wood, tie can
do that at his leisure without exposing him
self to very severe cold.
Barnesviile is destined to become quite a
railroad town, it being the terminus of four
divisions of the St. Paul, Minneapolis fc
Manitoba R. R. The two trunk lines from
St. Paul unite and again diverge at this
point, one going to Crookston anrj thence to
St. Vieeent, on the east side of Red River,
and the other by wav of Fargo and Grand
Forks, on the west side, also connecting at
St. "Vincent for Winnipeg and poiDts in
Manitoba, B. A. The enmrtsnv hnveerecled
a large round honsn and coal shed at this
! point, and propose erecting a depot, machine
and car shops, and other works in the spring.
So wo expect to have lively times hero next
summer. A very fine country is tributary to
this point, where splendid crops of No. 1
hard wheat are raised in profusion, which,
coupled with railroad business, will do much
towards building up a flourishing town.
Our mutual friend, Mr. J. K. McCoy is at
present working with me, having just re
turned from a flving visit to Cambria coun
ty, hut his time being limited be was unable
to pav a visit, to the Ffeeman office, which
he wished to do.
I am glad to notice that our old time friend
"Rob Bov" is still at bis post, and remem
bers the Freeman.
As I have already trespassed on your gen
erosity. I will close by wishing the Freeman
and its readers a long and prosperous career.
Your old friend. F.' P. McC.
Peterson's Maoaink for February is
such a beautiful number, that many persons
will think it even better than the January
one. The principal steel-plate, ."Going to
School." is especially cunning ; and "Two
Little Pussies," printed on tint, is only less
so. Then there are fonr colored designs in
embroidery for D'Ovlevs ; and double si7
colored steel fashion plates : a beautifully il
lustrated story ; and pbout fifty other embel
lishments The "Professional Beauty," by
Frank Lee Benedict, is continued, with in
creasing interest. But the most striking
storv in the number, one of the most strik
ing we have read for a long while, is "The
Snake Charmer." This, like all the other
stories in "Peterson," is original and by an
American author; In fact that can he said
of hardlv any other of the monthlies. The
prlee of this magazine is but firo dolfr.rs a
vear, with great deductions to clubs, o that
j every lady caa afford to subscribe to it ; and
i certsinly "a lady, no family, ought to he
I without It. l's enormous circulation, in
i which, we believe, it excels all the o'her
lady's books combined, can alone explain
I why so splendid a marrazine can be furnished
I at so low a price. Now, bv-the-by, s the
I very time to subcribe tor the new year.
I Specimens are sent gratis to those wishing
I to subscribe, or to get up clubs, and esne
j cially handsome premiums are given for gel

Special Meeting of Council. Council
met on Monday evening, Jan. 15l h, at call of
Burgess, at the office of A. Evans, Esq., for
the purpose of taking action in regard to the
short supply of water in the reservoir, and
the advisability of closing the same off for a
few days, or until the walking beam con
necting with the engine can be repaired.
The following members were present : Bur
gess Roberts, Councilmen Barker, Gutwald,
Evans. Hugiiesand Jones.
It was moved that the water be shut off on
the following day (Tuesday) at 8 o'clock, a.
m., to be turned on again at the discretion of
the Superintendent. Carried.
On motion, a committee of two, consisting
of Burgess Roberts and Councilman Evans,
was appointed to Inquire into the feasibility
of procuring a further supply of wa'er, and
report to Council a eoon as practicable.
J. S. Davis, Clerk.
A Bio Thing for the Price. The
greatest amount of value for the smallest
amount of money, in a literary sense, is fur
nished by the, Continental Marazin, a new
monthly just established in Baltimore, the
first number of which is now before us. It
contains twenty-eight larce pages of choice
reading matter, comprising the most charm
ing stories, sketches, poems, etc , as well as
a beaUtifllllv illllSt rate d litio r.o a . n.l ..
fine engravings, and is fut nisheif at the re
markably low price of 50 cents per year.
t r wouni do gnu io otter it in connection
with our own paper, but as anybody can get
it at the price indicated, and 'we would be
ashamed to ask it for less, we can do no bet
ter than commend it to the patronage of our
readers, one and all. A specimen copy can
be seen and blanks for ordering it obtained
by calling at this office.

Visitors to Philadelphia are
invited to visit the store,
whether to see or to buy.
Your parcels are checked ; a
waiting-room is provided,
where you may rest with
ladies and children; guides
conduct you through the
house, or you wander at will ;
there are many things ol
interest to see, and a wel
come. For two years, perhaps, we
have had the richest, largest,
most varied and most exhaus
tive collection of dress-goods
in Philadelphia. Before that,
we may have had the largest,
and even the most exhaus
tive, but perhaps not the
richest. The slowest trade
to come to a new merchant
is the trade of luxury. It is
the slowest to change from
one to another. But it does
change.
We may say our dress
goods of all sorts are at
about their highest now.
Eocond and third circle, southeast
Irom center.
Silks of all sorts have
come; and never were silks
"more acceptable. And these
words have a meaning here
beyond any they could have
elsewhere; because of the
greater variety of wants tha?
look to us for supply. We
must have all accepted styles,
and all the approved quali
ties of those styles; and, as
to colors, can you think of
one that we can do without?
A store that has only one
class of trade can get along
with comparatively few silks.
Which jstock would- you
rather buy out of?
Next outer circle, south entrance
to main building.
Two damask towels at 15
and 18 cents may serve to
show what we gain by buy
ing of the makers. The very
same towels are in the whole
sale trade in New York at
about 21 and 22 cents, which
means at least 25 cents at
retail.
We are not going to say
that all our retail prices are
below New York wholesale;
nothing of the sort. " More
than one swallow to make a
summer." But where such
towels are to be got for 1 5
rents is a good place to look
for bed and table-linen, and
all the other linens. That's
what we mean exactly; it's
true, too.
Outer circle, City-hall square entrances
A very wide and surpris
ingly good navy-blue twilled
flannel for 50 cents; 45-inch.
Do you remember a 35
cent flannel for 25 cents, of
which we had 18,000 yards
last fall? Afterward we got
7,000 yards more of it; and
a little of it is left yet. That
is 23-inch. This wide flan
nel is fully as good as that
Third circle, southeast from center. fe"
All the warmer sorts of
underwear are ready; for
men, women and children;
thick-cotton, merino, wool,
and silk. All the sorts need
ed for all sorts of people
with all sorts of notions;
and, for people who want It,
there is quite a little wit
about underwear to be pick
ed up at the counter. Where
else would you look for it?
Not in books surely; for
good3 are changing all the
time; and so get ahead of
books.
