Astoria, Oregon, Thursday Morning, November 30, 1882 No. 52. he mmlg f0fkm rr THE JNORTHERW PACIFIC The following regarding tho building of the Northern Pacific Railroad is valuable for future reference : The eastern extension of the Northern Pacific is at its junction with the Chicago, St. Paul Minne apolis and Omaha Railroad, two miles east of Superior, "Wisconsin. Twenty-five miles west it crosses the Saint Paul and Duluth at the Northern Pacific junction, twenty lour miles from Duluth and one hundred and thirty-six from Saint Paul. From the Northern Pacific junction to Duluth one-half inter est in the St. Paul and Duluth Railroad is the property of the Northern Pacific. One hundred and fifteen miles west, at Brainerd, is the junction with" the "Western Railroad, leased and controlled by the Northern Pacific, a distance of sixty and and a half miles, to Sauk Rapids, where running connections are made with the St. Paul, Min neapolis and Manitoba Railroad, for a distance of seventy-five and a half miles, into St. Paul and Minneapolis. At Little Falls, 31 miles from Brainerd, the Little Falls and Dakota Railroad leaves the Western Railroad in a south westerly direction for the Sauk Centre and Morns and beyond, GO miles of track being laid, and the eighty-seven miles to Morris to be completed during 1882. This line is projected to Ortonville, Minne sota, and Brule City, Dakota, a distance of three hundred miles from Little Falls, by the Northern Pacific Company. At Wadena, one hundred and sixty-two miles, the Northern Pacific, Fergus and Black Hills leaves the main line, and is con- avrncTect througn rergus mns,w miles, and to Breckenridge, 75 miles, and is projected to the mouth of Owl River (Missouri River), and to the Black Hills, a total distance of 450 miles. At Fergus Falls there is a branch constructed to Pelican Rapids, 23 miles. This is under the control of the Northern Pacific Company. At Gtydon, 243 miles, the Saint Paul, .Minneapolis and Manitoba Railroad is crossed, connecting the Northern Pacific with the Canadian Pacific at Winnipeg, and again at Mborhead, 253 miles. At Fargo, 2G3J miles, the Fargo and Southwestern has track laid to Davenport, 18 miles, at the cross ing of the Breckenridge branch of the St. Paul, Minneapolis and Man itoba Railroad. The grading is completed to Lisbon, 50 miles, and will be extended to that point dur ing 1SS2, and grading to the cross ing of James River, SO miles, is under the control of the Northern Pacific. At Casselton, 273 miles, the Casselton branch is completed north to Mayville, 43 miles, with grading extended some distance beyond. It is under the control of the Northern Pacific. At Jamestown, 347 miles, the Jamestown and Northern is pro jected north, with ten miles of track laid, and 40 miles graded, and is under control of the North ern Pacific Company. The Missouri river is crossed at Bismarck, 450 miles. The Yellow stone Valley is entered at Glen dive, G70 miles, and followed to Livingstone at 1,010 miles, where a branch is projected to the Nation al Park, 57 miles. At Billings, 895 miles, a branch is projected to St. Benton, 180 miles. The Belt Mountains are crossed at Bozeman Pass, 1,124 miles, 3,650 feet tunnel. The route is thence, via Bozeman, 1,035 miles; Helena, 1,134 miles; Mullan Pass, at the crossing of the main Rocky Mountains, 1,153 miles, 3,820 feet of tunnel, and a summit grade of 5,548 feet above mean low tide; thence down the Blackfoot, Hell Gate and Mis soula rivers to Missoula, 1,257 raile. Leaving the Missoula river atl, 2G5 miles, It ascends the Cor MMn Defile and over the summit t Camas Prairie, descends the val fejr of Finlay creek, Jocko river, rUthead rtrr, and Clark's Fork f Ifct Ooksibta, ad arovodtbe i of Ike Find dTOwtfk to Sand Point, 1,454 miles, at the foot of the lake. From the valley of the Columbia the route crosses the great plains of the Columbia at Spokane Falls, 1,522 miles, to Ainsworth, at the mouth of Snake river, on the Columbia, 1,G?2 miles, and down the river to Wallula, 1,G84 miles, where it connects with the Oregon Railway and Naviga tion Company's railroad to Port land, 1,897 miles; thence to Kal ama, 1,937 miles, and to Tacoma, 2,042 miles. A Relic of Sherman's March. As we tramped along through 'woods of ash, elm and water oak, we saw wild ipecac and sweet- william jrrowinjr at the sides of the odd pathway, and having asked the name of a curious kind of grass, I was delighted at the stories that then came out. "That," said" the guide, in answer to the question, "is what we call Egyp tian clover. We didn't have it before the war, and none of us ever heard of it or saw it until Sherman and Johnston came. The seed was left on the ground by the armies, and now we wouldn't take anything for it." The grass which has a tiny leaf more like that of the red clover, grows all over the hill-sides, at the edge of the woods, along the earthworks, and even iorces its way into the tilled fields. In its growth it chokes out other herd grass and all weeds, though fortunately it may be killed itself by plowing, or there might be too much of the good thing. Horses and cattle get fat upon it, so that on the battle field there is pasturage in where before the fight nothing of value grew. This, truly,, was aa did rci ei:mun That"'" iWU'BprjUBinjr; hosts, halting here, like beasts of the jungle, to snap up trees, to tear the ground, to burn Jind to slay, should leave behind not bones to bleach only, but seed wherefrom have sprung dainty carpets and soft borders of green that enrich the waste paces.-Iihiladelphia Times. The Effects of Tobacco. "A tall young woman," with a new grievance against cigarettes, writes to the Sanitaiy Engineer, asking if excessive smoking of them is not ono of the reasons why young men are. so short. "It is forlorn," she says, "to walk or dance with a young man that only comes up to your shoulder, and there are so many of them' whom she knows. She evidently does not like to "overlook" such an offense as this. On the other hand, a clerk in tho New York Dock Department, who is charged with disgbeying a rule of the office and smoking during office hours, says ho has smoked since he was seven teen years old (he is now 50), and smoking has had no evil effect on him. On the contrary, he has al ways "taken a delight in stud'," and while thoughtless young men have sought amusement in "thea ters, ball-rooms, drinking-saloons," he has been trying to improve himself in the line of his "legiti mate profession" and to store his "mind -with knowledge upon gen eral subjects." Besides he has added twenty years to his life in "hours stolen from sleep," so that he is now, in effect, 70 years old. All this all this he attributes to the patient and conscientious use of tobacco. There is one form of swind ling carried on this country that honest men can afford to contem plate with satisfaction. It is what is known as the "boodle" busi ness. Sharpers send out pirculars in tho form of letters by the thou sands, addressed to young men in all parts of the country, worded in such a way as to suggest that the sender has counterfeit money for sale. Sometimes a fragment of a genuine bill is enclosed as a sample of their "goods." Tho vic tim eagerly swallows the bait, visits the city proposed, or sends' a remittance. He rarely receives the counterfeit money ho desires, but h generally succeeds in losing all few spare cash. The treasury ejkiatf ttteV teat l,00,i0 or more change hands in this way every year. The beauty of the trick is that it takes in none but those who areaheady so dnpraved as to be willing to engage in the circulation of counterfeit money. In this instance, therefore, the sharper stands as a sort of financial fool-killer, and that is the point wherein the crime is entirely sat isfactory. The Guardsmen returned from Egypt who now walk the streets of London have a wild look about the eyes and a marked unquiet about the brow. The traces of severe privation is left in their dried and shrunken forms, but the traces of mental anguish is visible enough in the disturbed glances they cast around. The same ex pression was noticeable in the faces of the men returned from Zululand, and the officers of our army will tell you that the men who have served in the frontier war against the Indians never re covered the happ-, careless look they had worn at the commence ment of the campaign. "One single echo of the war whoop by night will rob a man of twenty 3'ears of his life, and he may bid farewell to his youth forever after," said Gen. Custer just be fore entering on his campaign on the Rosebud river. royai POWDER Absolutely Pure. Tills powder neer arics.
