Rice, whose far-seeing sagacity, in such matters at least, is acknowledged by all acquainted with himfi The town was laid out in the spring of 1856. The proprietors have expended a large amount of money in the building of two substantial piers, a large saw mill, capable of cutting between two and three million feet of lumber annu ally, a commodious hotel, and in Opening a road to the St. Croix river to the lumber region, which connects with other roads leading to the Falls of St. Croix, St. Paul, etc. The buildings in the town are generally larger and more substantial than in most of the new towns on the Lake. During the past year a Methodist church was built, and it is in contemplation to erect an Episcopal and a Presby terian church this season. It is confidently anticipated that the Presbyterian church will be built during the summer, and that a minis ter of that denomination will reside here.
