"What brought you to the Crescent City at

Hays.
"Oh, myself and old Sam pt on a spree at the

We learn from the Mt. Clemens Advocate that
a gis spring has been discovered on the preme
@is of Mr Rose, about four miles above New Bal
timore, on the border of Lake St Clair. Some
workmen bad been for a considerable time en•
gaged in digging a well on Mr Rose's premises,
a rod or to northwest of the house' which is of
brick and newly bath, and had, by . digging and
boring in all, attained the depth of seventy-five
feet. They had draws up the auger to the place
where they left off dirgine and commenced ber.
ins, all 1 there left it, with some ether tools, and
were at dinner, when they were startled by a
violent noise, at first like an explosion,sind then
followed a roar like '•blowing ofr a- large steam
boiler, accompanied by a very perceptible trem
bling of the fouttdati9o of the li , .use As may be
supposed, the inmates rushed out and neheld, to
their utter astonishment and consternation, the
well vomiting forth a huge column of sand with
such a !Urea as to throw it to the height of over
two hundred feet.

blown one hundred and fifty feet in the air,
and 'fell at a distance of one hundred and

sixteen pounds was thrown up nearly the

ground folPfull an acre in extent was covered
with gravel and sand to the depth of from one
to six inches. The gas has been several times
ignited, and burns with a beautiful white fame;

any, however, thus distrustful of its climate,
they probably live out of the territory. I have
so means of knowing what the climate is here
in winter except from hearsay and general pria
eiple,s. It seems to be au approved theory that
the farther we approach the west in it northern
latitude the milder becomes the winter. The
Stage drivers tell tot that the snow does not fail

and that the roads are at all times kept open and
much traveled. After all it is at way before

wax, and
the desert of ice where Sir John Franklin per
ished. A few facts in regard to the people who
live four or five hundred miles to the north, will
best illustrate the nature of the climate and its
adaptedness to agriculture.
It is common to say that settlements have not
extended beyond Crow Wing. This is only
techeically true. There is a settlement at Pem
bina where the dividing line between British
America and the United Stuns crosses the Red
River of the north. It didn't extend there from
our frontier, sure enough. 'lf it extended from
anywhere it must have been from the north, or
along the confines of that mystic region called
Rainy 'Ake. Pembina is laid to have about
600 inhabitants. Men live there who were born
there, and it is in fact au old settlement. It was
founded by British subjects, who thought they
hail located on Brifflh soil. The greater part of
its inhabitants are half - breeds, who earn a com

tent from this town. Notwithstanding the dis_
tance there is considerable communication be
t ween the places. West of Pembina, about thirty
miles, is a settlement called St. Joseph, situated
near a large mythological body of water called
Mini waken, or Devil's Lake; and is one of the
pints where Col. Smith's expedition was intend.

report to the war department the best points for
the establishment of a new military post. It is
expected that Col. Smith will return by the first
of next miloth; and it is
_probable will advise
the erection of a post at Pembina. When that
,t)ue, if it is done, its effect will be to draw
emigrant from the Red River settlement into
Minnesota
Now 14 me say a word about this Rod River
of the north, for it is begining to be a great fea
ture in this upper coubtry. It runs north, and
empties 'into Hudson's Bay by Nelson River.—
It is a muddy and sluggish stream, navigable to
the mouth of Sioux Wood River for vessels of
three feet draught for four months in the year.
So chat the extent of its navigation within the
territory alone (between Pembina and the mouth
of Sioux Wood River) is 417 miles. Buffaloes
still feed on its western banks. Its tributaries
are numerous and copious, abounding with the
choicest kinds of game and skirted with a Teri.

years before t,his magnificent valley shall pour its
products into our markets, and be the theatre of
a busy and genial life.
One of th i s first things which drew my atten
tion to this river was a sight of several teams
traveling towards this vicinity from a north:
westerly direction. I observed that the complex.
ion of those in the caravan was a little darker
than that of pure white Minnestoians i and that
the carts were a novelty. "Who are those people?
and where are they form?" I inquired of a
friend. "They ate Red River people, just *Mi.

lently adapted to prairie traveling. How strange
it seems! Here are wile who have been from
twenty to thirty days on their journey to the
nearest civilised community. This is their nearest
market Their average read traveling is about
fifteen miles a day, and they generally secure
game enough on the way for their living. I
have had highly interesting accounts of the Red
River settlement since I have been here, both
from Mr Ross and Mr Marion, gentlemen re
cently from there. The settlement is seventy
miles north of Pembina, and lies on both sides
of the river. Its population is estimated at 10,-
000. It owes its origin and growth to the enter
prise and nieces. of the Hudson Bay Company.
Many of the settlers came from Scotland. but
the most were from Canada. They speak Ear
lish and Canadian French. The English style
of society is well kept up, whether we regard
the church with its bishop, the trader with his
wine cella?, the scholar with his library, the
officer with his sinecure, or their paper currency.
find they have everything but a hotel, for I was
particular (ns that point, though not intending
just yet to go there. Probably the arrivals do '
not justify such an institution, but their cordial
hospitality will make up for any such lack, from 1
all I hear. They have a judge who gets a good
house to live in,
and 4EIOOO sterling a year, but
he has nothing of consequent.e to do. He was
formerly a leading lawyer in Canada.
The great business of the settlement, of course,
is the fur traffic. An immense amount of buffalo
skins are taken in the summer and autumn, while
in the winter smaller but more valuable fine are
procured. The Indians also enlist in the hunts,'
and it is estimated, that upwards of $200,000
worth of furs are annually taken from our Lewis
tory and so to the Hobson Bay Company. It is
high time indeed that a military post should be I
established some where on the Red River by our
government. The Hudson Bay Company is now
a powerful monopoly. Not so 'magnificent and
potent as the East India Cowpony, it is 'still a
powerful combination, showering opedesee on its
members, and redeeting a peculiar featnte in the
.
strength and grandeur of the British empire.

AN AINUSING PROPIDICT.,
LORRNZO DOW AND FRANKIAN PIRRCIL
During a recent trip to New Hampshire, a grave
citizen of that territory relieved the tedium of,
some twenty miles over the Eastern Railroad by
the recital of a prophecy made many yearn ago
by Lorenzo Dow, regarding Franklin Pierce, thee
. Representative in Congress. We cannot look to
the chronology, but hope for the credit of our
friend that Lorenzo Dow didn't die some dozes
`years before the time on which his story was
based. Oar friend's twenty mile story we oak
, dense as follows :
When Mr. Pierce was Itqaesentative in Coa
-1 great from New Hampshire he was tailed apdb
lin Washington by the celebrated long bested
preacher, Lorenzo Dow, who claimed the power
of prophecy and went about -the country, with
stag in hand, and girdled like John the Baptist.
He was: remarkable man anyhow, and won many
proselytes by his wonderful and mysterious power.
He swayed men, as trees are swayed by the wind.
and his oat-door sermons brought many a hard
ened sinner to repentance. Mr. Pierce was in his
' room at his inn engaged in writing, when the
waiter rapped upon the door and informed him
that a rough and tumble old fellow down stairs
wanted to see him. '
"Tell him I am engaged," said Mr. Pierce.
"I've done so, already, sir," •aid the man,
"but be won't budge. Indeed he's the queerest
old °hap I've ever seen, yer honor."
“Go down and find rint his name, Jim,” said
Mr. Pierce, "and if the olil fellow wants to moo
me very tonal, tell him to come again—l'm very
busy now "
The mac win down, and Mr Piero resumed
his writtiog.
"Devil a bit he'll r , your honor," said the
waiter, again looking itr, grinning prodigiossidy ;
"he says his name is Dow, and must see yowbs:
cause he's got a ro•s4age for you."
"Well, Jim," said Mr. Pierce, with the good
humor that always characterized him, 'show him
up.,,
In a few minutes the pant and sunburst
"Wandering Jew," as he was called, stood in
the chamber, where he was cordially received 1,7
its occupant, who invited him to be seated until
be should finish his writ tine. The strange non
complied. and when the wrinkle was completed
Mr Pi erce i n formed him that official dudgeon!".
ed him to the Capitol, and invited him to walk
thither with him. They left die room together,
and when about leaving the house Mr. Dow re
membered that he bed left his staff behind, and
cooly ordered Mr. Pierce to go back and being
it, which ho good humoredly did, end tee two
proceeded down Pennsylvania Avenue together,
attracting much attention by the contrast—the
one dressed in the elegance of fashion, the other
in a garb not like anything in this world, nor, it
is hoped, in that which is to come. \\ Mr. Plans,
with the politeness of the true gentlemen, mode
no sign by which it could be inferred that he ielt
ashamed of his companion, and walked ww with
hint to the steps of the capitol.
Here the prophet stopped. He had, op, to
this moment., said nothing of the mission of whisk
he had isformed the servant, but now be said :
"Friend Franklin, I have something to tell
you that effects your coming life. Yeasts low
& Representative in Congress. Yon will be mat
back here again, but not as Congressman, and
then you will be sent here no more. But a higher
mission awaits you—you will become a misting,
of the Gospel of Christ!" Saying this, he tam
ed sway suddenly, without further void at ex
planation, and the President-to-be,walked op the
steps sad entered upon his duties, langiung at
the prophecy so strangely made, which he mgprd -
ed ea the mere figment of a di seased brain. The
sequel proved two-thirds of the prophecy Sr..,
and whether the balance will be verified fibilMins
to be seen.
