read,ii the cause 'of this naparalleled

completed to the Red riVer'before Sep
tanher;4 but the immigrants 'are here
ahead of 'it, taking possession of all the
tdmiee lands belonging to• the-govern
ment sections, each man staking off his
,preemption ,claim of one hundred and
acres,, • Many er the settlers have
Redo arrangementei with the railroad
company, and have taken land belong
,to them. It is estimated that not
lees Than twenty thoUsand persons have
settled along the line of that railroad
the - present season I The immigration
'from Can'ada has been very _ large to
Manitoba. A gentleman from Motre
whti into been spending a few mo uths
in the'vailey, informs me that not less
than nine thousand ) have
passed.northward to take up .homes in
.Polanitoba, three hundrecl , , miles north
of,•the line of, the Northern Paeltlo rail
road The lands hero are just as havi-
Ong as these in Manitoba; but,,, ,having
been subjectis of Lbe Queen, with all
their associations connected with Caw
ada, they are not quite ready to become
'citizens of the republic. It is the as
tonishing, fertility of these lands and
their prospective nearness to an eastern
market, that Make them so Ikttractlve.
It is only two hundred aud thirty
milled from Red river to' lake'SUperior ;
and Duluth, ass shipning,point, is just
as nearas Chicago to New York or Bos
ton. The railroad, when' completed to
this 'pOtiat; •Inatead of reaching a wil

day, allve incoming popialation ;
not yeer, reapers, mowers, threshers,
vacies of children learning - their les
sons in school, and church bells ringing
their music on the ambient air!
• So this green sea of 'the Northwest is
changing from silence and solitude to
life and activity,. at a rate unparalleled

Shortly after the Republicans came
fully into possession of the State gov
ernment in 1861, they were confronted
,with the necessity of arming the troops
of the State called out to suppress the
rebellion, and to put the State int a
condition of defense. Hence the ne ;o
tiations of the war loan of 1861. They
therefore commenced their decade with
a debt of over forty millions, atifollov;:s :

The tonnage tax was repealed in 1861,
