DUAL JIEMBEKSSniPS. The matter of daal membership in subor- dinate lodges camo np on a report from the committe on Masonio jurisprudence, sub- mitted by Past Grand Master E. W.

The mat- ter was finally disposed of by the adoption cf the resolutions submitted by the commit- tee, which substantially leavo it jnst where it was before, by the action of the grand lodge last year. r. G. M f!|i8.1oo W >J»ah. from thfi samo committee, submitted a voluminous report relating to recognition of the grand lodge of Dakota, etc. After considerable disenssion, resolutions were adopted leaving it optional with the Fargo and Bismaick lodges to re- nounce tho jurisdiction of the grand lodge of Minnesota and enter that of the grand lodge cf Dakota.

Masonic RtUef Association. The annual meeting of the Minnesota Masonic Relief Association took place at noon yesterday in Masonio Hall. President li. \V. Johnson delivered bis annual address, which was replete with sound and sensible suggestions, and was listened to thronghont with marked attention. He recommended various reforms, among them the discontin- uance of the custom of sending notices of indebtedness a second time, and nrged upon agents and examiners the strictest attention in the examination of applicants, advising against the admission of any one who wonld be rejected in an ordinary life insurance company. General Johnson concluded as follows: In looking back at the work of the last year, it is pleasant to report that all death losses have been promptly paid, and that allhas been done by the association to extend financial relief to the widows and orphans of our deceased members. The future is bright and promising, and the Masonic Relief Association, now permanently established, willlonglive dispense benefits to the dear ones of our deceased members. SECRETARY'S KEPOBT. The report of Secretary J. C. Terry was then read. It showed that the institution was ina healthy and prosperous condition; that the membership was steadily increasing and that the association is performing its mission of providing for the wants of the widow and the fatherless in a most satisfactory manner. The present membership amounts to 2,470, and during the year there were 17 death losses. The applications accepted during the year were 205 and the members reinstated were 66. The total receipts of the year weie 33G,2t>5; and the disbursements (seventeen death losses at $2,000 each) $34,000, leaving a balance of $2,265 to be applied to contingent and other incidental expenses. A. G. UAXSOS's CASE. The case of A. G. Alanson, deceased, was alluded to, and the action of the officials thereon was approved. The application of Mr. Manson nas being acted on at the time of his decease, and although the asso- ciation was under no legal obligation to pay the $2,000, circulars, however, were pre- pared and seßt to members, Etating the acts and asking them to contribute whatever TRKE CULTURE. A Letter from Col. Robertson to the Sta'e Forestry Association— His Interest in the Work. At tiie meeting of the State Forestry as- sociation on Tn/sday evening'the following letter from Col. D. A. Robertson was read. Col. liobertson is one of oar oldest citizens, and has taken a deep interest in all incusures setming to tend to the improvement of the State ia whatever direotion. Itis to be re- gretted that circumstances prevented his at- tendance at the convention, bat it will be- gratifjingto find that his heart is still inter- ested in tho work of the association. The letter follows: St. Paul, Minn., Jan. 13, 1880. ToPennock Pusey, Treasurer M. 8. F. A.: Dear Sir—I willbe unable to keep my prom- ise to attend the meeting of the State Forestry association, for the reason that a friend with whom I have an engagement will arrive at my house this evening and willleave in the morn- ing, so that I cannot attend the meetiDg to- night. T resrret to learn it is feared that you will have a small attendance. This association, like most other endeavors for the public weal, which depend for success more npon useful knowledge than upon main strength and ig- norance, must be content with the co-operation of a very few public spirited citizens. For- tunately the Forestry association has a capable and energetic secretary npon whom, almost alone, depends success. I would not know where to seek a man to fill his place. I am convinced that upon the adequate financial support of the State Forestry association, de- pends, in a very great degree, the ameliorations of our climate which are essential to the agri- cultural and other industrial interests of our State. This is the plain teaching of authentic history and ncientific investigation. By the de- struction of forests many once prolific regions of the globe have lost their fertility,opulence and civilization; while in other regions, as in our prairie and treeless plains, the satisfactory success of civilized colonization absolutely de- pends upon tho planting and scientific distrib- ution of trees. It is by bucli subduing and replenishing of our treeless regions, that tor- nadoes and midsummer hail storms, so fre- quently destructive to grain and other crops; the often blight of crops from parching arid- ity, causing also the failure of springs and wells, and failure of the Boil to produce a sufficient supply of wood for fuel and other domestic usi'k: the incursion and frequent recurrence of vast armies of locusts and other destructive in- sects; the terrible visitation of wintry "bliz- zards, "sacrificing the lives of human beings and domestic animals, and obstructing travel and transportation ; the destruction of game birds and of birds gonerally, and the consequent failure of fruit trees; the exposure of our ad- vancing settlements to autumnal and vernal fires, and the damage and failure of crops from the other various hurtful climatic phenomena, are to bo avoided. In brief, the history of forestry proves that these and many other adverse phenomena may be greatly avoided and controlled, by an appli- cation of methods of tree planting, snch as have been Buccessf ally demonstrated and ap- proved in many parts of Europe. The annual saving that would be secured to this State by comprehensive system of tree planting, advancing close abreast with frontier populations, would be far more than sufficient to pay all present State expenses and wonld doubtless provide a large snrplns fund, and much more than needed, to complete within a few years the comprehensive arborial improve- ment of the whole State, which would not only vastly increase the general prosperity, but also supersede the labors of emigramt aid organiza- tions. The intelligence of the State should be made so fully informed en this subject that our next legislature wonld be required to grant appropriations sufficient to make our State Forestry association a complete success. If any of the foregoing suggestions appear worthy of remark, you can make such use of them as you may think proper. Very trulyyours, D. A. Robertson. TEMVLARIBII. The Second Ball of Damasens Comniaml- ery Last Evening—A Urllliant Assem- blage. The second ball of the season given under the auspiocs of Damascus Commandery was held at the Merohants hotel. Sir Knight Allen, the host, had made eveiy arrangement for the event . The spacious dining room was reserved to those who chose to chase tbe happy hoars away with flying feet, and the accommodations were all that could be required. There were present from eighty to a hundred couples, many of whom were attracted thither from the sarronnding towns by the reports of the first ball of the series. The dancing hall had been tastefully decorated by the astistic display of flags and colors, and wherever one went he was sure to meet the jovial countenance of Col. Allen. Nothing was left nndone by him that could have been done to render the ball a com- plete success, which it was inevery respect. It is matter of regret that the grand lodge did not adjourn until too late an hoar to en- able the members to participate in the ball, as a body. A few of the more prominent Ma- sons, however, dropped in towards the close of the entertainment, and were able to enjoy a few of the most engaging of the dances and to partake of the liberal spread which Col. Allen had prep:. red for the delectation of his guests. THE COURTS. Municipal Court. [Before Jndge Flint. | IWIIUTi The City vs. John Kelly; drunkenness ; com mitted for 7 days.

Opening of tho Jununry Toriu -Or^iuii/»- tlou ami Charge of the Grand Jury. In the district court, yesterday morning, the sheriff returned that he could not find George \u25a0R. Finch and G. P. Cribben, the missing grand jurors, and Mr. K.Lion was excused from serv- ing because of over-age. The grand jury was then constituted and sworn as follows: John T. Averill, Foreman. John A. !-'«bin, J. Ross Nicols, Henry Hechtcman, Fred. Driscoll, D. Schulto, E. M. Hallowell, L. M. Burrington, Frank B. Clarke, Geo. L. Farwell, P. R.L. Hardenburgh, Wm. A. Van Slyke, C. J. McConvdle, Geo. T. Browning, Richard Marvin, Charles Proal, Lucien Warner, John Rogers. Judge Brillthen proceeded to deliver his charge to the grand jury, which was com- menced by reading from sections 27 to 42 inclusive, chapter 107, of the general statutes. The reading was interspersed by remarks from the court respeotins the dnties of tho grand jury and tho interpretation of the statute. The jary were especially coutioned to con- duct their proceedings in the strictest secrecy. The seal of privacy should not only mark their actions while in session, but it was of the utmost importance that silence as to the proceedings should govern them afterwards. If this was the ruL) all would feel at lib- erty to make complaints without fear of sub- sequent exposure, while those who wero in- nocently accused would not be subjected to ignominy or stigma. They were instructed that their jurisdiction included the right to inquire into the misconduct of public offi- cers, which power was not re3fricied to city or county officers holding their seat of office in the county. They were also instructed to enquire into all publio offences, however brought to their attention. It was not material that tho county attorney should prefer the charge, but the members of the jury themselves, had a right to bring forward any matter for in- vestigaeion that may have come under their own notice". In conclusion the court spoke as follows : The grand jary is, to a great extont, the custodian of the peace and morals of the commuuity, as well as the protector of the individual. No man can be put upon trial for a felony without the action of the grand jury. Every accusation ought to be scrutin- ized with the greatest care, because crime can only be punished under your indictment. Besides, it sometimes happens that inno- cent persons, through malica of their ene- mies, are accused of crime, and while upon a full hearing before the court, they may be acquitted, yet the public is not always a3 humane as the law, which always presumes innocence before convic- tion, and^often the disgrace which attaohes to an indictment and trial for crime, as well as the pecuniary loss, is inseparable. To simply remind you of these facts is all that is necessary in order to secure your careful attention to the important duties committed to your hands. Xh« charge being delivered the jury retired am' the court rose. GOVERNXEST LAXD SALES. Uncle Sain Still Says Couie Along- 10,000 Farms Taken Up InMianesota Last Year Itie lilocks of Land Yet on Hand.

SUMMI T ArBS YE SE IFER. Judge Simons .Sustains the Assessment anil Grants <Jndjrua»nt Accordingly. The decision of Judge Simons was filed yesterday in the suit of the City of St. Paul against, certain real estate re-asseflsed for the sewer on Summit avenue, between Rice and St. Peter] streets. The objections on the part of the assessed property owners are re- viewed by tne decision in detail,and the jadge holds afl follows: That the assessment is not to bo limited to the contract price of the work bat is au- thorized to be made to cover all the costs of the work. The treasurer's fees are addition- al to the general salary, of which objectors pay a part. It is not affirraatively shown that the engineering coals are paid from the general city funds to which the objectors contribute their proper propsrtion. The council's authority to make the re-as- sessment is held good, and it is not a valid objection that the re-assessment is the same in amount as the original. ' It is not a valid objection to tho re-assess- ment that the contract is the same on ac- oount of which the original assessment was decided to be invalid. The improvement has been made and the property benefitted, and that is a sufficient basis for the re-assess- ment Tho non-complianoe with the charter in that tho contractor was bound to purchase a portion of his material from the city at a price fixed, is not an objection to the validity of the re assessment. The refusal of the court to enter judgment on the original assessment is not a bar to the re-assessment. All the objections being overruled, judg- ment is ordered against each lot and parcel of land re-assessed for the amount thereon.

St. Louis, Jan. li.—The tow-boat Iron Mountain, with five barges, left here this morn- ing forNew Orleans with about three hundred thousand bushels of bnlk corn for c.-port. Over seven hundred thousand bushels of corn have gone by the same route, within a week, and about a million bushels since the re- sumption of navigation, January Ist. The movement would have been still greater, but for the lack of bulk grain barges. CITY GLOBULES. Tho United States circuit court, Jurigo Nel- Bon presiding, will resume, tho business of tho December term at 10 a. m. to-day. A tramp who was seen entering the hallways of houses on Seventh street near Jackson, was arrested[last night by Capt. Clarke. Aman named Murphy was arrested by Of- ficer John Vogle la«t night for creating a dis- turbance at the corner of Third and Exchange streets. Fernandez Solii &Co., a new firm, havo de- posited bonds withCollector Bickel and will go into tho business of cigar making at No. 15 East Third street, Police Officer John E. Ncwoll was humming "Baby Mine" and treating to cigars last even- ing. Itis a fifteen pounder and looks like its dad --but handsomer. Articles of incorporation of a Relief nnd Literary society of Red Wing, under the title of "Teutonia Lodge No. 9, Orden der Hermanis Solhue," waa filed with the secretary of state yesterday. Now there is a prospect of St. Paul being supplied with beefsteaks, without importing them from Chicago. The packing hor.se will sell its choice steaks instead of packing, dry- ing or canning them. An erroneous announcement has been made insome of the city papers of religious services to be held in the Sixth ward So.day by Rev. Mr.Pope. Mr.Pope intends at an early day to hold services there, (of which due notico will bo given) but not next Sunday. Prof. Walter C. Lyman, the distinguished elocutionist, willdeliver a leoture on voice cul- ture and other kindred topics at the St. Paul commercial college (Prof. Faddis') corner of Thirdand Jackson streets, on Friday evening. The lecture will be free, and a!l interested are invited. At She meeting of tho University Regents yesterday, the board assumed allresponsibility for the arms, equipments, etc., issued to tho university by the war department, and au- thorized Gen. Sibley to press his negotiations for the assignment of a military instructor to tho university. The first annual ball of the policemen of St. Paul will take place at Pfeifer's hall on the sth of February. Tho gentlemen of the star will no doubt find that they have a great many friends that they kave not counted on, and the hall willhardly be capacious enough to accom- modate them. The coming annual meeting of the Grand lodge, Ancient Order of United Workmen, to be held in this city in February, promises to be of a much more interesting nature than are the annual meetings of this order as a rule. The order now has a membership of about twenty-five hundred in the State, and as every subordinate lodge will be represented by one or more delegates, there will be of necessity a large attendance. Of course the regular busi- ness meetinp willbe Becret, but arrangements are making for a public installation of the of- ficers, to be followed by a banquet to the visit- ing members, concluding with a grand ball. LOTS OF SHERIFFS, Nobles County Also Has Two and Could be IlappyWith Either Were T'other Away. On the relation of Mr. B. R. Miller made yesterday the supreme court of Minnesota has issued its mandamus, returnable January 28, at 10 u'eliick a. M., reqniring J. A. Town, Bheriff of Nobles county, to appear and show why ho should not surrender his office, his books and records and other appurtenances, including the use of the county jail and the privilege of feeding and guarding its inmates, and all the duties, emoluments, honors, cares, losses and curses, to the said relator, Mr. Miller,aforesaid, of the county of Nobles, aforesaid., &c, etc. The relator states his case about as follows: Town was elected sher- iff of Nobles county at the November election of 1877, for the term of two years, ending December 31st last. At the elaction of No- vember, 1879, when presumably Town was a candidate for re-election, Mr. Miller was elect- ed sheriff for tho two years term beginning Jan Ist inst. The usual certificate of election was given him by the proper ofllcer, the county auditor; he qualified in due form, he gave the bond of office, which the commissioners duly approved; his oath and bond were duly filed; and he duly and properly requested the Town aforesaid and so on to step down and out. but tho Town aforesaid and \u25bao on wrongfully and unlawfullyrefused and refuses and wrong- fullyand unlawfully sticks to the place as if be were waxed to itand expected to lose the seat of his pants ifhe moved. Unless Mr. Miller has omitted Romethinp; or made a mistake in his relation, the State of Minnesota, by its supreme cor.rt, will yank that man Town aforesaid as ifit had no regard for the aforesaid Mr. Town's pants aforesaid or tho wax aforesaid. But Town is yet to be heard from, and his narration may not agree with Miller's relation of the facts in the case. The IrishCatholic Colonization Movement. Secretary Dillon O'Brien of tho Irish Catholic Colonization Bureau, this city, states that a bureau pamphlet written by him especially for European circulation, has been published iv Liverpool, fifty thousand copies, and is being widely circulated in England and Ireland. He also states that the bureau correspondence has lately largely increased, and that more letters are now ar- riving from Great Britain and Enrope than from the Eastern States, where, however, the interest in the work of the bureau has not ceased. Among the writers from Eng- land and Ireland, are not a few anxious in- quirers about Minnesota wheat. One large dealer in grain, of Dublin, wants to know whether Minnesota farmers are holding their wheat for higher prices. "Minnesota flour," ho says, "i 3all tho go here." Another Irish gentleman writes that, being inLiverpool a short time before he wrote, he observed there that wherever the word Minnesota appeared on a newspaper bulletin board there the largest crowd gathered. Infact it is the general tenor of tho foreign letters received from over the sea that there never was a time when so many intending emigrants had their minds turned to Minnesota, or when its position as ft food producing region was so highly es- teemed among all classes of people in the old countries.

TRKE CULTURE.

A Letter from Col. Robertson to the Sta'e

Forestry Association— His Interest in theWork.

At tiie meeting of the State Forestry as-sociation on Tn/sday evening'the followingletter from Col. D. A. Robertson was read.Col. liobertson is one ofoar oldest citizens,and has taken a deep interest in all incusures

setming to tend to the improvement of the

State ia whatever direotion. Itis to be re-gretted that circumstances prevented his at-tendance at the convention, bat it will be-gratifjingto find that his heart is still inter-ested in tho work of the association. Theletter follows:

St.Paul, Minn., Jan. 13, 1880.ToPennock Pusey, Treasurer M.8. F. A.:

Dear Sir—Iwillbe unable to keep my prom-ise to attend the meeting of the State Forestryassociation, for the reason that a friend withwhomIhave an engagement willarrive at myhouse this evening and willleave in the morn-ing, so that Icannot attend the meetiDg to-night.

T resrret tolearn it is feared that you willhave a small attendance. This association,like most other endeavors for the public weal,which depend for success more npon usefulknowledge than upon main strength and ig-norance, must be content with the co-operationof a very few public spirited citizens. For-tunately the Forestry association has a capableand energetic secretary npon whom, almostalone, depends success. Iwould not knowwhere to seek aman to fill his place. Iamconvinced that upon the adequate financialsupport of the State Forestry association, de-pends, in a very great degree, theameliorationsof our climate which are essential to the agri-cultural and other industrial interests of ourState. This is the plain teaching of authentichistory and ncientific investigation. By the de-struction of forests many once prolific regionsof the globe have lost their fertility,opulenceand civilization; while in other regions, as inour prairie and treeless plains, the satisfactorysuccess of civilized colonization absolutely de-pends upon tho plantingand scientific distrib-ution of trees. Itis by bucli subduing andreplenishing of our treeless regions, that tor-nadoes and midsummer hail storms, so fre-quently destructive tograin and other crops;the often blight of crops from parching arid-ity,causing also the failure of springs and wells,and failure of the Boil to produce a sufficientsupply of wood for fuel and other domesticusi'k: the incursion and frequent recurrence ofvast armies of locusts and other destructive in-sects; the terrible visitation of wintry "bliz-zards, "sacrificing the lives of human beings anddomestic animals, and obstructing travel andtransportation ; the destruction of game birdsand of birds gonerally, and the consequentfailure offruit trees; the exposure of our ad-vancing settlements to autumnal and vernalfires, and the damage and failure of crops fromthe other various hurtful climatic phenomena,are to bo avoided.

Inbrief, the history of forestry proves thatthese and many other adverse phenomena maybe greatly avoided and controlled, byan appli-cation of methods of tree planting, snch ashave been Buccessf allydemonstrated and ap-proved inmany parts of Europe.

The annual saving that would be secured tothis State by i»comprehensive system of treeplanting, advancing close abreast with frontierpopulations, would be far more than sufficientto pay all present State expenses and wonlddoubtless provide a large snrplns fund, andmuch more than needed, to complete within afew years the comprehensive arborial improve-ment of the whole State, which would not onlyvastly increase the general prosperity, but alsosupersede the labors of emigramt aid organiza-tions. The intelligence of the State should bemade so fully informed en this subject thatour next legislature wonld be required to grantappropriations sufficient to make our StateForestry association a complete success.Ifany of the foregoing suggestions appear

worthy of remark, you can make such use ofthem as you may think proper.

Very trulyyours, D.A. Robertson.

The Second Ball of Damasens Comniaml-ery Last Evening—A Urllliant Assem-blage.

The second ball of the season given underthe auspiocs of Damascus Commandery washeld at the Merohants hotel. SirKnight Allen,the host, had made eveiy arrangement for theevent . The spacious diningroom was reservedto those who chose to chase tbe happy hoarsaway with flying feet, and the accommodationswere all that could be required. There werepresent from eighty to a hundred couples,many of whom were attracted thither from thesarronnding towns by the reports of the firstballof the series. The dancing hall had beentastefully decorated by the astistic display offlags and colors, and wherever one went he wassure to meet the jovial countenance of Col.Allen. Nothing was left nndone by him thatcould have been done to render the ball a com-plete success, which it was inevery respect.Itis matter of regret that the grand lodge

didnot adjourn until too late an hoar to en-able the members to participate in the ball, asa body. A few of the more prominent Ma-sons, however, dropped in towards the close ofthe entertainment, and were able to enjoy afew of the most engaging of the dances and topartake of the liberal spread which Col. Allenhad prep:.red for the delectation of his guests.

DISTRICT COURT.

Opening of tho Jununry Toriu -Or^iuii/»-tlou ami Charge of the Grand Jury.

Inthe district court, yesterday morning, thesheriff returned that he could not find George

\u25a0R. Finch and G.P. Cribben, the missing grandjurors, and Mr.K.Lion was excused from serv-ing because of over-age. The grand jury wasthen constituted and sworn as follows:

John T.Averill,Foreman.John A.!-'«bin, J.Ross Nicols,Henry Hechtcman, Fred. Driscoll,D.Schulto, E. M. Hallowell,L.M. Burrington, Frank B. Clarke,Geo. L. Farwell, P. R.L.Hardenburgh,Wm. A. Van Slyke, C. J. McConvdle,Geo. T.Browning, Richard Marvin,Charles Proal, Lucien Warner,

John Rogers.Judge Brillthen proceeded to deliver his

charge to the grand jury, which was com-menced by reading from sections 27 to 42inclusive, chapter 107, of the general statutes.The reading was interspersed by remarksfrom the court respeotins the dnties of thogrand jury and tho interpretation of thestatute.

The jary were especially coutioned to con-duct their proceedings in the strictest secrecy.The seal of privacy should not only marktheir actions while in session, but it was ofthe utmost importance that silence as to theproceedings should govern them afterwards.

Ifthis was the ruL) all would feel at lib-erty to make complaints without fear of sub-sequent exposure, while those who wero in-nocently accused would not be subjected toignominy or stigma. They were instructedthat their jurisdiction included the right toinquire into the misconduct of public offi-cers, which power was not re3fricied to cityor county officers holding their seat of officein the county.

They were also instructed to enquire intoall publio offences, however brought to theirattention. It was not material that thocounty attorney should prefer the charge,but the members of the jury themselves, hada right to bring forward any matter for in-vestigaeion that may have come under theirown notice".

Inconclusion the court spoke as follows:The grand jaryis, to a great extont, the

custodian of the peace and morals of thecommuuity, as well as the protector of theindividual. No man can be put upon trialfor a felony without the action of the grandjury. Every accusation ought to be scrutin-ized with the greatest care, because crimecan only be punished under your indictment.Besides, it sometimes happens that inno-cent persons, through malica of their ene-mies, are accused of crime, andwhile upon a full hearing before thecourt, they may be acquitted, yet the publicis not always a3 humane as the law, whichalways presumes innocence before convic-tion, and^often the disgrace which attaohesto an indictment and trial for crime, as wellas the pecuniary loss, is inseparable. Tosimply remind you of these facts is all thatis necessary in order to secure your carefulattention to the important duties committedto your hands.

Xh« charge being delivered the jury retiredam' the court rose.

SUMMIT ArBS YE SE IFER.Judge Simons .Sustains the Assessment

anil Grants <Jndjrua»nt Accordingly.

The decision of Judge Simons was filedyesterday in the suit of the City of St. Paulagainst, certain real estate re-asseflsed for thesewer on Summit avenue, between Rice andSt. Peter] streets. The objections on thepart of the assessed property owners are re-viewed by tne decision in detail,and the jadgeholds afl follows:

That the assessment is not to bo limitedto the contract price of the work bat is au-thorized to be made to cover all the costs ofthe work. The treasurer's fees are addition-al to the general salary, of which objectorspay a part. It is not affirraatively shownthat the engineering coals are paid from thegeneral city funds to which the objectorscontribute their proper propsrtion.

The council's authority to make the re-as-sessment is held good, and itis not a validobjection that the re-assessment is the samein amount as the original.'

Itis not a valid objection to tho re-assess-ment that the contract is the same onac-oount of which the original assessment wasdecided to be invalid. The improvement hasbeen made and the property benefitted, andthat is a sufficient basis for the re-assess-ment

Tho non-complianoe with the charter inthat tho contractor was bound to purchase aportion of his material from the city at aprice fixed, is not an objection to the validityof the re assessment.

The refusal of the court to enter judgmenton the original assessment is not a bar to there-assessment.

All the objections being overruled, judg-ment is ordered against each lot and parcelof land re-assessed for the amount thereon.

LOTS OF SHERIFFS,

Nobles County Also Has Two and Could beIlappyWith Either Were T'other Away.

On the relation of Mr. B. R. Miller madeyesterday the supreme court of Minnesota hasissued its mandamus, returnable January 28,at 10 u'eliick a. M., reqniring J. A. Town,

Bheriff of Nobles county, to appear and showwhy ho should not surrender his office, hisbooks and records and other appurtenances,including the use of the county jail and theprivilegeof feeding and guarding its inmates,and all the duties, emoluments, honors, cares,losses and curses, to the said relator, Mr.Miller,aforesaid, of the county of Nobles,aforesaid., &c, etc. The relator states hiscase about as follows: Town was elected sher-iffof Nobles county at the November electionof 1877, for the term of two years, endingDecember 31st last. At the elaction of No-vember, 1879, when presumably Town was acandidate for re-election, Mr.Miller was elect-ed sheriff for tho two years term beginningJan Ist inst. The usual certificate of electionwas given him by the proper ofllcer, the countyauditor; he qualified in due form, he gave thebond of office, which the commissioners dulyapproved; his oath and bond were duly filed;and he duly and properly requested the Townaforesaid and so on to step down and out. buttho Town aforesaid and \u25bao on wrongfully andunlawfullyrefused and refuses and wrong-

fullyand unlawfullysticks to the place as ifbe were waxed to itand expected to lose theseat of his pants ifhe moved.

Unless Mr. Millerhas omitted Romethinp; ormade amistake in his relation, the State ofMinnesota, by its supreme cor.rt, willyankthat man Town aforesaid as ifithad no regardfor the aforesaid Mr. Town's pants aforesaidor tho wax aforesaid. But Town is yet to beheard from, and his narration may not agreewith Miller's relation of the facts in the case.

The IrishCatholic Colonization Movement.

Secretary Dillon O'Brien of tho IrishCatholic Colonization Bureau, this city,states that a bureau pamphlet written byhim especially forEuropean circulation, hasbeen published iv Liverpool, fifty thousandcopies, and is being widely circulated inEngland and Ireland. He also states thatthe bureau correspondence has lately largelyincreased, and that more letters are now ar-riving from Great Britain and Enrope thanfrom the Eastern States, where, however,the interest in the work of the bureau hasnot ceased. Among the writers from Eng-land and Ireland, are not a few anxious in-quirers about Minnesota wheat. One largedealer in grain, of Dublin, wants toknow whether Minnesota farmers areholding their wheat for higher prices."Minnesota flour,"ho says, "i3all tho gohere." Another Irish gentleman writesthat, being inLiverpool a short time beforehe wrote,he observed there that whereverthe word Minnesota appeared on anewspaperbulletin board there the largest crowdgathered. Infact it is the general tenorof tho foreign letters received from over thesea that there never was a time when somany intending emigrants had their mindsturned to Minnesota, or when its position asft foodproducing region was so highly es-teemed among all classes of people in theoldcountries.
