Owing to the and, as we think, totally uncalled forincrease in the price of paper aocl printing material, and there being no prospect of a declne iu prices, reluctantly, we are compelled to announce that, on. and after the 1st of June next, the subscription price of the UNION will be par year. After mature deliberation, we have come to the conclusion, that it is better to increase the price man to reduce the size of the the or the other we must do.

Fifty cents a yearless than one cent a weekto each subscriber does not amount to much, to us it amounts to considerable enough to take the profits off all our labor we do not care about working for nothing, the man that does is a fool. At the end of the year if any subscriber can conscientiously say that the UNION has not been improved 50 cent's worth he can have his 50 cents refunded. We do notstated desire to take any snap judgment the proposed change in price'will not talte effect till after the 1st of June. All who wish can renew their subscription, at the old price, before that date. THAT bright, newsy journal, the St.

How many thousand dollars, in bonds, would Isanti county vote toaid in the construction of the East and West railroad? C. K.

The act of the daughter incurred the great displeasure of her parents, who went and tried to persuade tier to return home, after she had lived wilh the Indian about three mouths. Finding her fondly attached to.her Indian aDd unyielding to urgent entreaties to re-, tura home, her father attacked her with a club, when her Indian came to the rescue and beat his father-in-law so badly that he was glad to get away alive, and he has not since disturbed thein.

She has learned to make moccasins and do all sorts of bead work, and to all appearances she is the happiest squaw in the nation. I get this sketch from a of Ca-qua-dosh, who is now sojourning at Little Falls.

In the summer of 1850 a party of Sioux warriors came down the east side of the Mississippi, behaving themselves very lawlessly, shooting a tame buffalo at Little Fails that belonged to widow Green, and insulting every person they happened to meet along the road. AVhen they got down as far as Beilevue prairie they met tive loaded teams going to Little Falls. By shooting and yelling as they came along by the teams, they frightened them badly, aud after passing the last team they fired a volleytn bitename, it, German bjr the a of in the back. This caused to run away, passing all but the head team, which was driven by Wm. Slurgis.

As they came up to him he ascertained that the driver, Swarts, was shot and was. then so near dead that he could not.speak, and he soon breathed his last. They came on home to Little Falls, and a messenger was sent to Fort Ripley and to Hole-in-the-day, and gathering what force they could of Chippewas, soldiers and citizens, they followed the Sioux and overtook theih at Sauk Rapids. On account of imprudent management or cowardice none of the. Sioux were killed, but they were routed from their camp and had a running fight, Sioux leaving everything behind excepting their arms, and precipitated a across the Mississippi river, narrowly escaping punishment.

The Usual farce was then gone through with. The Government demanded that the guilty parties be delivered up. Two of them were delivered. over and St. Paul and fatted, and while on their way to Sauk Rapids for trial, made their escape.

C. Chadbonrne Almost Gored to Death by His Blooded Ball. On Friday evening last, Hon. C. Chadbourne, of Baldwin, Sherburne county, stepped into his stable with the intention of shortening up the rope with which his large blooded bull was tied.

Mr. C. advanced in front of the animal with this object in view the bull moved back the length of the rope, and made a dash at Mr. running one of his horns into his side about seven inches, lifting him off his feet and forcing him through the side of the-barn. Assistance soon arrived, Mr.

Princeton has had the honor of a visit from a real, genuine tramp, one that gloried in his vagabondism. He was tolerated for a day or two, until Monday night, when by his insolence, jn attempting to force an entrance into a certain house, he frightened two ladies almost out of their wits the result of tbe matter was, three or four of our citizens forciby persuaded him to leave town, eso'dflting him a mile or so on hia way and "helping" him along when he showed any signs 9 give Princetoflf a had bettor ftertbV 11I tire future or some of tbem may fare worse than this one did. On his way to Elk River he poured his tale of woe into the ears of the credulous grangers, who, of course, swallowed his soft soap. The sympathies of these tender-hearted Livonians would not be so freely expended on the worthless, oily-tongued loafer referred to if they had had as much experience with tramps as the people in the vie inity of St. Paul and Minneapolis had and are now having.

Gone to Rest. Last Friday afternoon, Myra Caley, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J3. A.

Caley, bid adieu to this vale of tears-her spirit returned to Him who gave it. She had been afflicted with a malignant type of diphtheria for 'several days previous to her death every care and attention was bestowed upon her by loving parents and kind friends, but neither parents or friends could save her, she was called and had to go. On Saturday morning, after a few brief apd touching- remarks by Rev. Mr. Henderson, the mortal remains of the once charming little Myra Caleyand as she lay enshroudin the beautiful white casket, she looked charming in deathwere borne to the West Branch cemetery and there, 'midst the tears of sorrowing relatives and sympathising friends, consigned to their last resting place.

On Friday evening last, Sheriff Cook, of Eau Claire county, Wisconsin, arrived in town, with a requisition from Governor Pillsbury, for one Cortez Kershuer, who is accused of burglarizing a house, at Eau Claire, on the night of the 20th Sept. last, and who was supposed to be at work on drive, for Washburn Co. On Sunday morning, the Wisconsin accompanied by deputy-sheriff Dunning, of this county, proceeded ap to the drive, where Mr. Dunning succeeded in quietly arresting the supposed culprit, who was known to his companions as Jack McC.onnel. On Tuesday morning, Mr.

Dunning turned the prisoner over to Sheriff Cook they both left by the stage and ere this have arrived safely at Eau Claire. A Card. Editor Union: There having been considerable complaint regarding delays in the transmission or delivery of telegraph messages sent from Princeton. I wish to state, in self-defense, that in no instance has it been the fault of the Princeton, Elk River Anoka Telegraph but has invariably been caused by other companies, owing to overworked lines. This objection, however, will soon be removed, as the North Western will put up two more commercial wires, thus largely increasing their facilities between Elk River, Minneapolis, St.

Paul and other points, when, trust, there will be no furtherxause for complaint. Our operators are instructed to be prompt in all business passing through their hands, and they take pride in doing so. unnecessary delay in transmission or delivery on part of our employees will be permitted. Very respectfullv. P.F.PRATT, Manager Princeton, Elk Hiver Anoka Telegraph Co.
