VBE CHARCBS OF TMK PIOMBBK
AGAINST THE STATE PBIMTBB.

The fionetr ot yeeterday led a forlorn
trf)pe— a« they say in military matterfr—by
gr*Te charges of fraud and swindling aJ-
ivged ^> hitve been discovered in the ac-
coontp rendered by VVm. R. Marshall for
State Printing. The forlorn hope of the
Picmeer was to prevent oar election as loci-
dental Printer to the two hoaees of the l^-
Islaiure, It signally failed of its object,
aa the proceedings of the legialAture. else-
where, show.

We will reply 10 the Pioneer's cU»ir^
in the order in which they are made.

First, it is alleged that the volume of
Lawi published oy U9, of which there were
5,000 copies, required only 145 83-100
reams of paper, when we bad charged for
162 ntaan, making a difierence of about 16
reams, or ten per cent., unaccounted for.
Now, without going into any elaborate anal-
yiis of the bill, we might rest a defense on
an allowance for general waste and loss of
ten per cent, on the paper— this we are
informed is the establi^ied allowanoe.
it ia .nsoal to reject the outside quires in
every biudle. Aod of those put to press a
large allowanoe has to be made for imper>
feet impressions, spoiled sheets, and imper-
fections of one kind aod another. In this
way, all the difierence that can be shown to
exist is fully accounted for. But Mr.
Goodrich's estimate is altogether unfair and
ioaccarate, as we shall show.

The printer intorms us that for 5,000
copies, 56 quires were worked for each form.
This was making an allowance of aboat six
per cent for lo^ in the pre«work and bind>
ing By the signatures— the numbers at
the bottom of every eighth page — it will
be seen that there were 57 forms. Two of
these, however, were imperfect — one at the
beginning and one at the end of the book.
Calling these two fractions equal to one, the
forms number 56, which multiplied by the
liumber of quires — 56 to each form — gives
us a total of 31,136 quires. There being
20 quires in a ream, this makes the number
of reams 156, and 16 quires over, nearly
167 reams. This is only &vc reams less
than our bill called for, or three per cent.

The next count in Mr. Goodrich's indict-
ment, is the item of $250— for indexing

the laws.
Although this appears in our bill, as the

proper place for its payment , we really had

nothing to do with it, further than to coU

iect and pay it over under the direction of

the Secretary of State who is required by

law to have the indexing done.

But nothing could have been more un-
fortunate for this " honest lago," than his
attempt to criminate Secretary Baker, or
any one else iu this item of $250, for the
" aide-notes, indexes," &c. When it became
ueceesary to furnish the sectional headings,
side-notes and index for the laws, Secretary
Baker carefully examined the law and the
usage which had controlled the Secretary's
Department in this matter. He found that
this same Goodrich had been allowed an
enormous sum, (enormous for the work
done) every year that he printed the laws,
for this work. In 1857, the State Printer,
(Goodrich) was paid the lum of $300 for
ftirnisbing said index, &c., to the volume of
taws lor that year ; said index being not
quite three pagea in length. He found fur-
tbcr, that the State Printer in 1858, (this
same delectable Goodrich) was allowed the
•am of $450, for indexing &c., the laws of
that year. Secretary Baker saw the ne-
cessity of immediate retrenchment and re-
form in this anwarrantable extravagance.

Finding that both the law, and usage
l^verning the department authorized him to
designate a person to do this work, be select-
ed Wm. F. Wheeler, a man particularly
experienced in this kind of business. The
Secretary contracted with him to furnish
the sectional headings, side-notes and index,
for both the General and Special laws of
1861, for the sum of $250, in Stata War-
rants, the same being estimated to be jiut
one half the sum demanded by, and paid to
Earle S. Goodrich for the same work in
1858!! Mt Wheeler did the work and did
it better than any similar job was ever done
before in this State, honestly earning every
dollar ; and he alone received the pay. He
is a good Democrat, and is now at Fort
Soelliog, a soldier ready to do battle for his
oonotry. He can speak for himself.

The Secretary acted strictly in accord-
ance with the law, and usage io this affair ;
aod carried out to the letter the doctrines of
retrenchment and reform, which the people
had demanded of their pablic wrraots in
the campalgb of 1859.

The next item is the press work. Mr. , . ,^ , ^.
Gooirid^ thfck. we are goUty of petty lar- ! ''"S" ^^^ Je'^r^ .'.".^ ."ir-iLm^Oo

ceny in having charged for 1,197 tokens,
when the book— according to the number
of pag«>s makes 1,176. Mr Goodrich
very well knows that each fraction of a
token. oountA as one token ; 240 impreMiong
mak« a token, thu.4 in each form of oight
pagm repeated 5,000 timet for that No. ot
volumes of the book tberv .^re 20 tokens
and a fraction over, ur according to rule. 21
tokeus. The book baa 57 forms— two that
are tractions — which multiplied hy the 21
tokens to u (ordi, give 1,197 tokens that we
charged. It will be seen by examining the
book that the index in the forepart, which
was the last priotad, contains a form and a
half; and that the 57th (orm— the 'ast— is a
fractional one. In this way perfectly acoa-
rate aud junt, the $12.60 petty larceny is
disponed of.

But apparently tht^ uuMt serious charge
of all, i^ that with the aaaistauco of an ex-
pert, Mr. Qoodrk:h examined a printing
bill filed Feb. I6U1, 1861. aud tbenin di^.
covered great frauds, amoantiog in the ag-
gn^te ro ^63,17. Yesterday we went
to the Auditor'M office, aooompanted with
an expert — a roan well kn«)wu and honored
aod trusted in hiitl profe«i<L>ii— Mi. Miller,
aud made a thorough and careful examine
tion ot the bill referred to by Mr. Goodrich,
with the following result, «m certified to by
Mr. Miller:

MR MILLXU'S CBRTiriCATC.

St. Pjlvl, January 7, 1862.
1 hereby certify that I have this day care-
fully examined a bill filed ia the SUte An.
ditor'fl office ou the 16th of February last, by
Wm. B. Mariball. SUte Printer— it being the
same bill referred to by the Pioneer of this
morning— and that I have examined the separ-
ate items of aaid bill, comparing them with
original copies of the printing charged therein;
that I hare measured said work and find said
bill entirely correct.

I further certify that I have measured all the
work, done by Mr. Maahall for the Sute
Legislature, that comes under the head of bill
work, pamphlets, and documents, also, the
Tolumo of lawa, and that aaid measurement
and the bills rendered therefrom were correct,
a^d that I have had no interest whaterer in
said bills or printing .

0. U. MILLER.
There was one legislative bill— No. 20.
Senate file — which appeared to have but
16 pages ; while in the accooot rendered, it
was charged as 34 pages. Mr. Miller rec-
ollected didtioclly that it was 34 pages ; it
being an election law, with numerous formH,
all of which were wanting io the copy 00
file; evidently the 18 pages had been detacb*
ed and lost in some way.

In our examination of bills in the Au-
ditor's office we found one thing, and bat one
thing, that was not susceptible of an entirely
satisfactory explanation. We refer to a
bill dated the 27th of last April, tor 32
reams of paper for printing the Journals of
the Senate and House. It is evident that
this quantity of paper was not used on the
Journals. The facts in regard to thi* item
~to which Mr. Goodrich has not yet al-
luded, but of which we will give him the
full benefit— are as follows : The Journals
were not printed in St. Paul. The person
who printed them made an estimate for the
paper before the copy was placed in bis
hands. The paper was ordered— 32 reams
— and paid for in the above bill. When
the final bill for the Journals was rendered,
the party who did the printing neglected to
adjust the paper account, and to make the
proper deduction for what was not need.
He has been communicated vrith, and will
be heard from in a few days. The work
was not done by the State Printer, nor
did he receive any of the pay — either for
the work or paper. These fiicts can
be substantiated, and name and lo-
cality given, when it shall be necessary.
Ot course the State printer 'n responsible
to the State for what is done under bis ap>
pointment and will not evade snob respon-
sibility ; but the facta stated, will fully ex-
culpate him from any personal culpability
in this matter, if any wrong shoald be shown
to exist.

Now having, as we conceive, shown to
the public satisfaction that oor charges are
entirely unimpeachable in point of regulari-
ty, fairne8.s and justice— except this last
above, ot which we expect, in doe time, a
full and satisfactory explanation from the
party immediately responsible — let ns now
bring Mr. Earle S Goodrich tn trial 00 the
points which he has raised.

The public have heretofore allowed them-
selves to rest with the mere popular and
palpable inference drawn from the nature
of the case — that the immense maises of
money which this man has drawn from the
Treasury as State printer— so hugely dis-
proportionate to the work performed — were
acquired by fraud and peculation. Satisfied
that an effectual and final stop was put to
his career of plunder— they swallowed their
indignation and paid their taxes as best
they might, while he htm quietly and smiling-
ly pocketed his ill-gotten gains, and made
merry at their expense. We cculd not, nor
do we wish, to add anything to the deep-
seated conviction already entertained of his
dishonesty. We propose only to show that
the popular conviction does him no injustice
and to prove him the scoundrel the certainty
of which has heretofore been taken tor
granted.

We have time or space now for only a
few illuRtratioos, which we shall follow np
from day to day through his whole career.
The first bill which we draw at random
firom the files at the office of the State Au-
ditor, ia very apposite to the case io band,
because it enables us tu compare Mr. Good-
ich's charges for public printing with our
ates, whose fairnesi be has presamed to
call into question. This bill is dftted Oct
23d, 1858, and is for the publication of the
Laws of 1858. It consists of five items, one
of which H as follows :

Now let us try this part by GtMtdriofa'a
method of eoaiMiatfon : 32 pagw make a
sheet, 4711 will tbenibre make 14^ sbeeU.
In SiXKi copie« then, there will be be 44,000
•heeu. Divide thi^ now, by 4>M) the
number of sheets io a reMQ azxl we find
the whole number of reams coua;imed in
the work in queatk>n to have been but
93 18100. Yet, aark, you, the pura and
virtaoua Earle chsr|ed the State for 187 ^
or more than twice the amount of paper
actually consumed according to his own
oomputation.

Let us put thase fiacu side by side tfiaia :

Bat we will try him now upou the »ame
cosnt not by the rule iofentsd to suit
a purpose of temporary conreoiaDoe, but
by roles universal with the craft every*
where By these rules he had a cooeedad
v^i to charfe the State with two par
cent, of every ream used, to cover deflcieo-
ci«M< and waate, which would maka the
amount of paper legitimately chargeable to
the Stats in this transaction 102.42 reams.

Showing a clear fraud in tkie on*

Again, we find iu the sane bill already
cited the toUowiog item—
780 tokena, at 91 | 780

Mr. Goodrich is fortnoate enough to have
a press capable of working oX 16 pafss at
one impressioo. To print 472 pages on bis
press would require 29)^' impreasioos. Mal>
tipiy this by the whole nomber of copies
printed, 3,000, and the wboie number of
impresHiona taken on his preen was therefoie
88,500. There are 240 impreasioos in a
token — coosequenUy the whole oumber of
tokens actually woriced ofl on hia prws
amount to bat 368^. Bat be hsa cfaargad
the State for 780, or for more than twice
the work actually performed. Bat we will
give Mr. Goodrich the benefit of the coove-
nient fiction that hw press is capable of
working ofi a form of only 8 pages at ooe
impreseioo. In that case the nomber of to^
keos wouk) be doabled. or 737)^. Bot be
has charged for 780 tokens, or for 42 >t to-
kens more than be printed aooordiag to his
own method of oomputation. Bot here
again we give him the beaefit of the typo,
graphical rale, that a fraction of a token
counts for a full token, which would make
the wboie number of tokeoe 750.

Giving him the benefit of fictioo in bis
case which makes one token count two, aod
the roles of measurement in case of firao-
tions — there remains a swindle ot 30 tokens
which cannot be disguised in any fiction
whatsoever. Recollect too, that this press
work fraud was perpetrated wbeo he was
receiving the extravagant rate of $1 per
token while the price now paid is but 63
cents.

These are only two items of one bill whose
damning evidences of rascality are not half
exhausted — and this is but one bill taken at
random from among a bage pile of similar
enormities.

Now that we have got our hand in —
thanks to Mr. Goodrich 's intended challenge
— we propose to continue firom time to time
oar illastratioos of bis transactions as State
printer till we tiball have placed upon record
his whole financial history in that capacity.
We shall show that that history was a piece
ot bold, high handed and methodical vil-
lainy throagbout — and besides satisfy iug the
public curiosity with an insight into the de-
tails of the gigantic robberies which now
press so heavily on the tax-payers of Minno.
sota, we shall be able, when we hare sosi-
mod up the resnlts of our inquiries, to show
abundant caase why he should be compelled
by process of law, to disgorge his ill-gotten
gains.

Wbovisdat Jan. 8th 1861.

The weather during the past week has
been variable. We have bad two or three
snow stomu, the reralt of which is, good
sleighing. We note, within a day or two,
coQsiderable quantities of Pork and Wheat
coniiug io.

Many of our Carmere boweva-, prefer
packing their pork to K-lliog at present pri-
ces.

We not 4 a ^ight advance io wheat, 52
cents per bushel being freely paid for No. 1 .

Pork has advanced to 2.60 since our iMt
report, and is firm, for hogs weighing 200
and over.

A farther advance has taken place in tea
aod cofiee. Tea, which retailed in oor mar-
ket two months »go at $1. now sells at 126
<gt 150 per pound. Cnffee is quoted in
Milwaukee at 24 cents, by the bag, and is
really selling lower ai retail in St. Paul
than in that city. The late tarifi* bill and
advance in insurance have caused this rise.

Oor market is well supplied with Butter,

LOCAL AFFAIKS.

"Thk Noble Eabl«."— Oar distinguished
friend, tbe "ground and lofty tumbler" of tbe
Pioneer, yesterday morning seated himself
in the lobby of the Senate, with airs much
reminding one of tbe style io which the
senior member of the firm of Mason and
Slidell was formerly wont to seat bioiself in
tbe corresponding branch of the National
Legislature. He came in to see the
tre-men-du-ou8 effect of bis onslaught upon
Mr. Marshall of the Passs Company.
When Mr. Marshall received tweoty votes,
(those of rU the Senators present) for inci-
dental pi inter, bis lordship wrapped the
folds of hi<ii toga about him and departed in
disgust at the Republican aod Democratic
wisdom of that iM-aocb of tbe Legislature.

Rev. a. 8. Poke.— The choice of this
gentleman as Chaplain of the Senate is in
no wise considered a looal triumph by his
oeigbbors of St Paul. His fearless and oat-
spoken utterances from the pulpit denunci-
atory of that great crime against God and
m which ha? plunged our nation into
civil war, long since gave him a State repn-
tatioo. And when bis name was put fo^
in the caucus on Monday night, there wss
more than one Senator who threw his bal-
lot io tbe right direction, knowing that by
doing so be was not only awarding justice
to a true Christian gentlemen, but also sd-
ministering a rebuke to that pro-slavery
jouroal of oor city, the Pioneer, which nev-
er lets a convenient opportunity slip with-
out abusing Mr. F. for the utterance of sen-
timents alike creditable to his own heart
and the age in which he lives. He has
never preached a seroKm wherein he chose
to ponotore the rotten aod rebeUioas careasa
of the *'divine institotioo,*'witboat the next
day receiving upon his head tbe outpourings
of tbe Pioneer' f vials of pro-slavery wrath.
Beooe we, in connection with all haters of
slavery in the State, rejoice at Mr. Fifke's
electioo as Chaplain of the Senate.

Albakt, Jan. 2.

The following is a digest of the annual
message of the Governor of New York, to
the L%islature :

After reviewing briefly the present con-
dition of the country he says : Our State
credit, the index of an abiding faith in the
Government, never stood higher than now,
aod the finances, although drawn on heavily
for the war, are in a i^ery satisfactory con-
dition. Forty per cent, of tbe sdvanccs
made by the State have oeen returned from
the Federal Treasury.
_ The Governor reccmmenda such legisla-
tion on capital punisliment as will impose
tbe death penalty only in tbe first degree of
murder.

He recommends th&t works on military
tactics be introduced into all State Colleges,
aod academies, and that drill be maik a
part of the exercises.

Tbe banking bosinei^ of tbe State is re-
ported to be in a sontid and healthful con-
dition.

Emigrants arriving at New York have
fallen oS 35 per cent, from last year, and
are less than any year since the organiza-
tion of the Board of Commissions of Emi-
gration.

The Governor recommends that tbe New
York proportion of the federal tax, 820,-
000,000, be assumed at once by tbe State,
and proposss a mode f jr its liquidation.

The condition of th) militia is alluded to
and legislatron recommended that will con-
form with the laws cf Congress, and im-
prove tbe efficiency of tbe discipline of the
State militia.

The Governor then enters on a review of
the political troubles of the Country and tbe
action of the State of New York. The
aggregate number ol men raised for the
war in the State has been 120,578 ; tbe
number now io tbe field, deducting tbe
killed, woanded, priainers and discharged,
is 89,034. There are now in the State, in
addition, mustered in 10 tbe United States
service, 14,500 men. The New York troops
are scattered over nine States, and in forty-*
three different brigadis, under twelve Gen-
erals of division. Tb»7 have taken part in
every engagement dc ring the war, east of
the AlleebanieB, and iioatb of Wasbiogtoa

Tbe Governor allud(s to tbe state of har-
bor defences, aod calls for prompt and effect-
ive measures in legislation, aod for an imme«
diate effort to obtain suitable appropriations
from Congress to provide for defences of the
coast aod that imoiediate preliminary
surveys be taken at once to asoertsin what
defenses are neceS'>ary. He recommends
that the State procee<l at once with works,
looking to the Geofral Government for
reimbursement. New York's interest io
preserving peace with foreign nations is
enlarged upon and war with England dep-
recated as fraught w ith nntold disasters.
No mere pretext 01 caprice of court or
cabinet, no cause whatever anlesa it in-
volved Natkmal dignity, if we are denied
the positive right, could justify represen-
tatives of the State consenting to a war
with any foreign power, especially at the
period when extraordinary snppUes of men
and money have been and will be drawn
from us to overwhelm insurgents at home.
The message concludes with the patriotic
decUration uiat New 'ifork will cast every-
thing into tbe balance to preserve the
dignity aod stability cf the Government

he bad not opposed the war ever since ita

league and now he would have held on to
Messra. Mason and Slidell b order that it
might result in war with Great Britain for
tke benefit of tbe rebels.

Mr. Thomas of Massachusetts said tbe
question involved points of Isw aod some
nicety. It was too much to assume that
this country could take another war into its
bands and we most therefore wait We
are not called oo to say that tbe de-
mand of England was manly and just.
It was unaianly and nojost. He
denied that in captaring Mason and Slidell
an insnlt to tbe British flag, in violation of
ioteroatiooal law, was intended, and aigoed .
that we had a right to do what was dooe on
that occasion.

i'HE CHABOKSOFTHK PIONBEH
AGAINST THE STATE PRINTKK.

The Fiorief ot vr^.-^tf^rday ieil n forlorn
f.npe— a.s ihrfy -ay in uiilltary matters — by
grj»ve charge* of iruud and swindling al-
l.ged to have brCD discovered in the uc-
countf rendered by Wm. R. Marshall for
State Priniinvr. The iorloro hopt- »i liie
Pioneer wa? lo prevent jur election as Inci-
dental Printt r to the two housa* of the leg-
ula'.ure. It Hignaily failed ot its object,
iu the proce*?dinK'' of thf lesfislature, else-
« r.ere, show .

We will reply lo the Pioiieer^s cuar-;*^
in the order in which they are made.

first, !t is alleged that the voluuie ot
La*8 published oy wi, of which there were
5 000 copies, required only 145 83-100
reams of paper, when we hud charged for
l02 r«kms. making a ditterenct; of about K>
teanis. or ten per cent., unaccounted tur.
Njw, without ^'oing into any elaborate anal-
ysis of tlie bill, we might rest a defense on
an allowance for general waste and lo»w of
ten per c«nt. on the paper— this we are
informed is the established allowance.
it n .usual lo reject the outside quire.s in
bvery bundle. And of those put to press a
lariie allowance has to be made fo'' linper-
feet impressions, spoiled .sheets, and imper-
fections of one kind und another in this
way. all the diflorence that can bt shown to
exist is tuUy accounted for. But Mr.
Goodrich's estimate is altogether unfair aad
inaccarate, as we shall show.

The printer informs as that for 5,000
wipics, 56 quires were worked for each form.
This was makicg an allownnce of about six
p*;r cent for lo^'* in the pre*swork and bind-
ing; By the signatures — the numbers at
tho tx)ttom of every eighth page— it will
be seen that there were 57 forms. Two of
these, however, were imperfect — one at the
oeginning and one at the end of the book.
' 'filling these two fr;ictions equal to one, the
iorms number .')*>, which multiplied by the
;iumber of quires;— 56 to each form — gives
03 a total of 31,136 quires. There being
20 quires in a ream, this makea the number
of reams 156, and 10 (juires over, nearly
15". reams. This is only five reams less
thao oar bill called for. or three per cent.

Tlie next count in Mr. Qoodrich's indict

ment, is the item of 8250— for indexing

the laws.

Although this appears in our bill, as the

proper place for its payment , we really had

nothing to do with it, farther than to coU

•eca and pay it over under the direction of

the Secretary of State who w reqnire<l by

law to have the indexiog done.

Bat nothing could Lave been raorei un-
fortunate for this *• honest lago," thau bis
attempt to criminate Secretary Baker, or
any one elm.', iu this item of 8250, for the
•• side-notes, indexes," ic. When it became
oecewiary to furnish the sectional headings,
side-notes and index for the laws, Secretary
Badier carefully examined the law and the
u.eage which had controlled the Secretary's
Department iu this matter. He found that
this t>amc Goodrich had been allowed an
eoormoua sum, (enormous for the work
done) every year that he printed the laws,
for this work. In 185", the State Printer,
(Goodrichj was paid the gum of 8300 for
furnishing said index, &c., to the volume of
laws lor that year ; said index being not
quite three pages in length, lie found fur-
ther, that the State Printer in 1858, (this
«ame delectable Goodrich) was allowed the
8um of 8450, tor indexing &c., the laws of
that year. Secretary Baker aaw the ne-
cessity of immediate retrenchment and re-
form in this unwarrantable extravagance.

Finding that both the law. and usage
{governing the department authorized him to
designate a person to do this work, he .select-
ed VVm. F. Wheeler, a man particularly
experienced in this kind of busiuess. The
Secretary contracted with him to ftiroish
the sectional headings, side-notes and index,
fer both the General and Special laws of
1861, for the sura of o250, in State War-
rants, the same i>ting estimated to be jtut
one half the sutn demanded by, and paid to

ceny in having .-barged for 1.197 tokenM,
when the book— according to (he numtMT
ot pai^t-* inukes 1.176. Mr tiocxlricb
very well know* that ouch fmctiori >-l a
token, tMUDtri as one token ; 240 imprpHsions
luakr .• token, thus in cjieh form ot light
page.'* n-peaii^d 5,0t)0 times for that No. of
volames o! ihe book there .iu- 20 tokens
and a fractiou over, or according to rule. 21
tokeus. The book bus 57 forms— two that
arc fractiour* — which multiplied l>y the 21
token.-! 10 a form, give 1,197 tokens that we
chartred. It will be t»peu by examlnint; the
book that the index in the forepart, which
was the last printed, eootains a form and a
half; and that the57lli t'-rra — the ist — b a
fractional one. In this way perfectly aeon -
rate aud ju.<»t, the i512.60 [letty larceny U
disposed of.

But apparently tlir moat strioun charge
of all, is that with the a«si.staue« of an ex-
port. Mr Goodrich examined a printing
bill Qled Feb. 16th, 1861. and iherein dis-
covered grc4t frauds, araonntiug in the ag-
gregate to 5363,17. yesterday we went
to the Auditor's office, ac'.finipanied with
an experl — a man well known and honored
and trust«d in his] proiedbiuti— Mi. Miller,
and made a thorough and careful examina
tion o! the bill referred to iiy Mr. Goodrich,
with ttie f<illowiuK result, «.<. certified to by
Mr. Miller:

Hrt MILLKKS CKRTIFICATE.

.St. Paul, January 7. 186^.

i hereby certify that I have this day care-
fully examined a bill flled la the Sute Au.
diior's office on the 16th of February last, by
Wm. R. Marshall. State Printer— it being the
sam^ bill referred to by the IKonetr of this
mornin;;— aad that I have examined the separ-
ate items of said bill, comparing them with
original copies of the printing charged therein;
that I have measured said work aad tiod eaid
bill entirely correct.

I further certify that I have measured all the
work, done by Mr. Mashall for the State
Legislature, ihat comes under the head of bill
work, pamphlets, and documenta, also, the
volumo of laws, and that said measurement
and tho bills rendered therefrom were correct,
and that I have had no interest whatever in
said bills or priatiug.

0. O. MILLEK.

There was on'? leginlativp bill— No. 20.
Senate file — which appeared lo have but
16 pages: while in the acconnt rendered, it
was charged as 34 pages. Mr. Miller rec-
ollecte<J distinctly that it was 34 pages ; it
being an election law. with numerous forms,
all 01 which were wanting in the copy on
file; evidently the 18 pages had been detach-
ed and lost in some way.

In our examination of bill^ in the Au-
ditor's oEQce we found one thing, and but one
thing, that was not susceptible of an entirely
satisfactory explanation. We refer to a
bill dated the 27th of last April, tor 32
reams of paper for pruitiog the JournalH of
the Senate and Hon«f\ It is evident that
this quantity of paper was not used on the
Journals. The facts in regard to thi* item
— to which Mr, Goodrich has not yet al-
luded, but of which we will give him the
full benefit— are a^ follows : The Journals
were not printed in St. Paul The person
who priuU-tl them made au estimate for the
paper before the copy was placed in his
hands. The paper was ordered — 32 reams
— and paid for in the above bill. When
the Goal bill for the Journals was rendered,
the party who did the printing neglected to
adjust the paper account, and to make the
proper deduction for what was not used.
He has been communicated with, and will
be heard from in a few days. The work
was not done by the State Printer, nor
did ho receive any of the pay — either for
tho work or pai»er. These {&c\a can
be substantiated, and name and lo-
cality given, when It shall be necessary.
Of course the .State printer ii responsible
to the State for what is done under his ap-
pointment and will not evade such respon-
sibility ; but the facta stated, will fully ex-
culpate him from any personal culpability
in thi.^ matter, if auy wrong should be shown
to exi«t.

Now having, as we conceive, shown to
the public .^ati.ifaction that our charges are
entirely uuunpeachable in point of regulari-
ty, fairness anri justice— except this last
above, ot which we expect, in doe time, a
full and ^satisfactory explanation from the

The public have heretofore allowed them-

palpable inference drawn from the nature
of the case — that the immenw maases of
money which this man has drawn from the
Treasury a-* State printer — s<-» hugdy dis-
proportionate to the work performed — were
acquired by fraud and peculaliou. Satisfied
that an effectual and final stop was put to
his career of plunder— they swallowed their
indignation and paid their taxes a.^ best
they might, while be ha.s quietly and smiling-
ly pocketed his ill->;otten gains, and made
merry at their exfteuse. We cculd not, nor
do we wish, to add anything to the deep-
seated conviction already entertained of his
dishonesty We propose only to show that
the popular conviction does him no injustice
and to prove him the scoundrel the certainty
of which lia-s heretofore been taken for

Again, we find lu the some bill already

ciie<i the tollowiuf; item —

7 so tokens, at $1 ^ 780

Mr. Goodrich is fortnnate enough to have
a pret^s capable of working o.f 16 pages at
one impression To print 472 pages on his
press would re<juire 29},t impreeBion.-!. Mul-
tiply this by the whole number of copies
printed, 3,000| and the whole number of
impressions taken on his press was therefore
88,500. There are 240 impresaions in a
token — cODsequeutly the whole number of
tokens actually worked ofi on bis preas
amount to bat 368^. But be baa charged
the State for 780, oc for mc«^ than twice
the work actually performed. But we will
give Mr. Goodrich the benefit ot the conve-
nient fiction that hu> presa is capable of
working ofl a form of only b pages at one
impresaioD. In that case the namber of to>
kens would be doubled, or 737>^. But he
has chargeil for 780 tokcas, or for 42 J^ to-
kens more than be printed according to bis
own method of computation. But here
again we give him the benefit of the typo,
graphical role, that a fraction of a token
counts for a full token, which would make
the whole number of tokens 750.

Giving him the l>enefit of fiction in his
ca>>e which makes one token count two, and
the rules of m^tisuremenl iu case of frac-
tions— there remains a swindle ot 3o tokens
which cannot be disguised in any fiction
whatsoever. Recollect too, that this pre«4
work fraud wa.s perpetrated when be was
recfjiving the extravagant rate of 81 per
token while the price now paid is but 63
cents.

These are only two items of one bill whose
damning evidences of rascality are not half
exhausted — and this is but one bill taken at
random from among a huge pile of similar
enormitioj.

Now that we have got our hand m —
thanks to .Mr. Goodrich's intended challenge
— we propo.se to continue from time to time
our illustrations of bis transactions as State
printer till we shall have placed upon record
bis whole financial history in that capacity.
We shall show that that history waa a piece
of bold, high handed and methodical vil-
lainy throughout — and besides satisfying the
public curiosity with an insight into the de-
tails of the gigantic robberies which now
prens so heavily on the tax-payers of Minne-
sota, we shall be able, when we have sum-
med up the resultn of our inquiries, to show
abundant canse why be should be compelled
by process of law, to dl'^gorge his ill-gotten
gain>^.

LOCAL AFFAIRS.

••The Noble Eablk."— Our distinguished
friend, the "ground and lofty tumbler" of the
Pionttr, yest^irday morning seated himself
in the lobby of tbe Senate, with airs much
reminding one of the style in which the
senior member of the firm of Mason and
Slidell wa? formerly wont to seat himself in
the corresponding branch of the National
I/?gi3!atiire. He came in to fiee the
tre-men-du-otis efieoi of his onslaught upon
Mr. Marshall of the Press Company.
Wht?ii Mr. Marshall received twenty votes,
(those ot all the Senators present) for inci-
dental punter, his lordship wrapped the
fold^ of his toga about him and departed in
disgust at tbe Republican and Democratic
wisdom of that branch of the Legislature,

Rev. a. S. Fiske.— The choice of this
gentleman as Chaplain of the Senate is in
no wise considered a local triumph by his
neighbors of St. Paul. His fearless and out-
spoken utterances from tbe pulpit denunci-
atory of that great crime against God and
m which hu.-* plunged our nation into
civil war, long since gave him a State repu-
tation. And when his nane was put forth
in the caucus on Monday night, there was
more than one Senator who threw his bal-
lot in the right direction, knowing that by
doing so he was not only awarding justice
10 a true Christian gentlemen, but also ad-
ministering a rebuke to that pro-slavery
journal of our city, the Piwuer, which nev-
er lets a convenient opportunity slip with-
out abusing Mr. F. for the utterance of sen-
timents alike creditable to his own heart
and the age in which he lives. He has
never preached a sermon wherein he chose
to puncture the rotten and rebellious carcass
of the "divine institution," without the next
day rtx^eiviog upon his head the outpourings
of tbe Pioneer* vials of pro-slavery wrath.
Hence we. in connection with all bateia of
slavery in the State, rejoice at Mr. Fi-^ke's
election as Chaplain of the Senate.

Message of Gov. Morgan of New
York.

Alba.n't, Jan. 2.

The following is a digest of the annual
message of the Governor of New York, to
the Legislature :

After revie>wing brielly the present con-
dition of the country he says : Our State
credit, the index of an abiding iaith in the
Government, never stood higher than now,
and the finances, although drawn on heavily
for the war. are in a \ cry satisfactory con-
dition. Forty per c(nt. of the advances
made by the State hav' bcea returned from
the Federal Treasury.

The Governor recommends such legisla-
tion on capital punish tnent as will impose
the death penalty only in the first decree of
murder.

He reconimeods thct works on military
tactics be introduced icto all State Colleges,
and academies, and tliat drill be made a
part of the exercises.

The banking business of the State is re-
ported to he in a sounl and he.ilthful con-
dition.

Emigrants arriving at New York have
fallen o8 3.") per cent, from last year, and
are less than any yeai since the organiza-
tion of the Board of Commissions of Emi-
gration.

The Governor recommends that the New
York proportion of tbe federal tax, 820,-
000,000, be assumed ai once by the .State,
and proposss a mode U r its liquidation.

The condition of the miiitia i? alluded to
and legislafion recommended that will con-
form with the laws o " Congress, and im-
prove the eflBciency of tbe discipline of the
Slate militia.

The (joveruor then enters on a review of
th( political (roubles of the Country and the
action of the State of New York. The
aggregate number ol men raised for the
war in the State has hern 120,.")78 ; the
numbei now in the field, deducting the
killed, wounded, prisoners and discharged,
is 89,034. There are now in the State, in
addition, mustered into the United States
service, 14,500 men. 1 he New York troops
arc scattered over nine Stales, and in forty •»
three differeiit brigade*, under twelve Gen-
erals of division. They have taken part in
every engagement dn -ine; the war, east of
tbe Allcghanies, and soulh ot AVashiogton.

The Governor allude? to the state of har-
bor defences, and calls Tor prompt and effect-
ive measures in legislat.on.and for an imme-
diate effort to obtain si itable appropriations
from Congress to provile for defencts of the
coast and that immediate preliminary
surveys be taken at once to ascertain what
defenses are nece.*-ary He recommends
that the State proceed at once with works,
looking to the (Jene-al Government for
reimbursement. Nev.- York's interest in
preserving peace with foreign nations is
enlarged upon and war with England dep-

No mere pretext or caprice of court or

tarSES FOURTH PAGS.

XXXVII CONGRESS-FIRST SESSION.

Wabhixoton, Jan. 7.

Mr. Hatcbins said he may have misun-
derfatood his colleague. At all events when
and where has his colleague from tbe com-
mencement of this rebellion ever voted for
measure for subduing rebellion or to estab-
lish the authority of the United State*?
The records of the House scarely show a
vote or a speech of his colleague in which
he had not opposed the war ever since it*
commencement. He believed that was*
fair statement of the position oi bis col-
league and now he would have held «.,n to
Messrs. Mason and Slidell in order that it
might result in war with Great Britain for
tLe benefit of tbe rebels.

Mr. Thomas of Massachusetts said tbe
question involved points of law and some
nicety. It was too much to assume that
this country could take another war into ita
hands and we mtist therefore wait. We
are not caiieil on to say that the de-
mand of England was manly and just.
It ^ was nuuianly trnd anjost. He
denied that in capturing Mason and Slidell
an insult to tho British flag, in violation of
iatercatiocal law, was intended, and argued
that we had a right to do what waa done on
that occaiion.

England ba« done to U3 a grievious wrong
in making a demand for Mason and Slidell
It was insolent in spirit and unjust. Eng-
land is treasuring to herself wrath against
the day of wratlj. She has pbced ic tbe — f—

heart'' of our people a deep sense of wrong
at a lime when we cannot respond, but wo
ehall be watching through the watches c^
the night lo strke tbe blow of rlghteooa
retribution.

Mr. Stevens moved the previous qaestioo
under tbe operation of which the documents
were referred to the committee on loreigD
affairs.

The Uouse went into committee of tht
whole on the bill for the payment cf sundry
civil expenses.

Mr. Vallandigham thanked Mr. Thomas
for the temper of his speech and its states-
manlike view. Mr. Vailandigham then en-
tered into an explanation of bis position,
burling back insinuations that be gave aid
and comfort to the rebels.

Mr. Bright corrected a garbled report of
a late speech, and said that the reporter was
guilty ot an unmitigated falsehood who
said be had declared in favor of the exten-
sion of slavery.

AFTEB THE CONTBAOTOBS.

The arrival In Cincinnati of the comnoit-
t€e authorized by Congress to investigate
contract frauds m the army, furnishes the
Cioclanati Commercial material for ibe fol-
lowing remarks upon the subject :

" Tbi» committee has, if we are not misin-
formed, got upon severiil tracks that will lead
to the diacoTery of public robbers The onlr
diSculty is that public oiiinion dooa not hold

fTtiX thieves to be as intumous as small ones.
he man who will speculate in the misfortunes
of his countrj, is a scoundrel of the meaaest
degree, and he is not adequately punished if
the people do tsot hold him to bo sacb. The
country needs educating in this matter. It is
useless to exrHjae rogues unless thev are prop*
erly branded as disreputable, and hooted from
associations with honest men. As the case
lunds. men in high places are covered with
ovidence uf defrauding their couotry, und yet
are not properly uuderstood to be moredeaerr-
iDg Bconi than the average of the iamatea uf a
penitentiary."

XHLRL.OW WEED^S OBSEBVA-
TIONS ABBOAD.

The Albany Evening Journal ot ynster-

day publishes a letter fr»m Mr. Weed, dated

London, Dec. 8, from which we extract the

following:

"Strong, active and subtle influences have
been at work here to render our Secretary of
Siateobnoxinus to thia Government, ita pi'ess
and people. And these influences have been
80 successful ttiut he is everywhere regarded,
not only as an enemy of England, but ai> one
who, from personal hostility or political con-
sideration, re;iliy desires a coUi^iion between
the two nations."

Referring to the Herald, he says:

That ijifluence, l.".rgely responsible for the
war already upon our hands, might, one
would suppose, be content to wait till the war
is over, before seeking to embarrass the count
try abroad.

The following incident is also mentioned:

A pleasant incident occurred yesterday.
Bi«hop Mcllvain, who attended church, was
identified ani invited into the pulpii, after
which prayers were read for not only the
Queen, but for thr> President, Congress, and
people of the United States.

SO.nEBMCT, KENTUCKY.

This village has become pretty familiar
lately, occurring in so many letters and dis-
patches from the seat of war in Kentucky.
The correspondent of the Cincinnati Oom-
mercial sayn of it:

"It is a small inland town — in fact, rather
insigaiticant— stores closed, taverns on aamall
•cale, private dwtlliog^s with their chimneys on
the outer ends of the buildings, after the style
of years ago, and a few old decayed buildings
which have fallen into smill hpnps of ruin,

Sving a minute illustration of Pompeii and
erculaneuin. Citizens, selti:ih ana rather
distant in their manners, owing, I presume,
to their neutrality on the war question, and
the predominance of secesaionism before we
iiTived here. Numbers of citizens who are
■cc sod of giving aid to the enemy, are brought
10 hsadqunrters every day, and after one of
the most strict examinations, are honored with
BO escort of arnied men out of the gunrd
haes. wiih the advice to go to their homes
and a'tend to their domestic duties, as good
loyal men should, or else join the army, and
fi,{ht for their countrv."

CATHOLICS ON THE TItSON AND
SLIOELL QUESTION.

The Catholic newspapers are particularly
severe on the English governmen'. aioce it
has 80 plainly shown its sympathy for the
slaveholders in rebellion, and a desire to see
this government broken up.

The Cvtholic Telegraph, of Cincinnati,

epeaking of the Mason and Slidell a£f<dr,

Bays :

Messrs. Mason and Slidell have been surren-
dered. Our Secretary of State has done well.
The effect desired bas been produced ; England
has shown her hand and her heart too, and
henceforth there will be lew if any found to
acknowledge her relationship. The revolution-
Brv war, and the lust war, did not leave such
a ffciiog ot intolerable loathing for England,
as her conduct in the present crisis of our
Union. She is here, as in Italy, Mexico.Spain
and Anstria, the general disturber of the hu-
man race, the enemy of peace, the conspirator
as^ainst Uod and man. ller conduct shows the
necessity of the Monroe doctrine north and
south. If our government refuses European
intervention in South America, it ought to
eS'dce it in the north ; and should the present
civil war be conducted aa we hope and believe
It will, in the restoration of the Union, our
late dispute with England shows we have a
bitter and dangerous enemy in Canada. The
Uonroe doctrine north and south at the proper
time.

The Boston Pilot, Xew York TaWe/.and
other similar journals, also discuss the mat-
ter, and find in Knglatid's heartless, merce-
nary and insolent course towards the gov-
ernment of the United States, additional
fuel to feed the flames of their hate against
her.

Gen. Sherman and tue Slaves. — Gen.
Sherman, writing from I'ort Royal to a
Senator, says that if he had issued a
proclamation immediately on landing in
South Carolina, offering protection to all
alavea that should enter his lines, he might
have had ten thousand about him by thia
time. But he expresses a conviction that
the course he pursued was best ; that the
time haa not yet come for such a proclama-
tion to have its full effect, and will not
come perhaps lor two or three months yet

— On New Yearn day President Lincoln
held a public reception from 12 m. to 2 p. m.,
wbeo thousands in a cootiououa stream
passed through the form of preseotatioa to
the Chief Magistrate.

—The Doard of Education cf New York
city have fixe i the salaries of leachurs at
$1 ,500 for the highest, and thence down
to $ibO. The hisjhest salary paid for a
female teacher is 8700.

—Cholera is aaid to be making great
ravages in the East Indies. At Oawupore
the natives are the principal victims. At
Kandahar eight thousand people d\^'\ in
eighteen days.

News from Nassau confirms the tntel-

ligence already received, that United States
vessels are refused permission to take in
' coal there, while lebel ships have every
facility offered them.

—The Charleston Mercury, of Dec. 7,
gives the particulars of a firo in that city
which destroyed a large amount of property.
The firemen succeeded in checking it, but
the Mercury states that it was incendiary
in ita origin. This fact and its occurrence
30 short a time before the conflagration of
the 12th is most significant.

— A volunteer and some citizens were
talking about the war, at Elraira, a few
days since, when, a difference having
arisen, some persons proposed to settle it
by taking a drink " No, no I" said the
volunteer, "that is not the way to talk.
You and all other men who can possibly
leave home should at once agree to enlist.
This war must be fought out and settled
with all possible dispatch. Drinking
I won't settle it; for if it would, our officer$
would have settled it long ago .'"

— A private letter from Washington, to
ue of the proprietors of the Buffalo Com
mercial Advertiser, says : "Look out for a
combined movement of all the forces at the
disposal of Gen McClellan soon. He is
now waiting for the completion of arrange-
ments West. He is ready here, as are
also the naval forces. There will be a
a fight all around the board."

—The Philadelphia Enq'iirer proposes,
as a means of making up the deficiency in
the p'. 8- ofiBce revenue, a tax of five cents
upon every telegraph dispatch sent over
the wires. It estimates the number of
such dispatches— exclusive of those to the
press — at two hundred millions. This is
probably an excessive estimate ; but the
number is vast ; and, with a tax of even
three cents, woald increase the revenue
by millions.

— The London Punch inadvertently gives
a true idea of the British style of dealing
with nations, in the following stanza :

"Then think twice, and think well, ere from

guard of the Lion
Those who seeK his protection you try to

withdraw ;
Though Siowell and Wheaton and Kent you

rely on.
There are points on which Lions won't listen

to jaw."

•'.Might makes right," is John Bull's
motto ; the -'Lion" i:^ to decide according to
the law of the strongest ; and all argument,
however well founded, he regards an all
'jaw" and n f u.-es to listen to it.

— The New York limes thinks it a little
amusing to reflect bow perfectly quiet Can-
ada waK under the Treut "outrage." until
she heard from England. It was not until
tiie old lion growled that the whelp-s thonght
of wbiuing. Canada look^ abroad for her
resentments, a.'^ well a.-< for her opinions,
governors and other lusurii.^.

— A French princess being told that the
poor in Paris were dying of starvation.
said, ''What silly people I before I'd starve,
I'd eat brown bread and mutton." The story
i.'' similar to one told of the late Duke of
Cambridge, Victoria's uncle, during the
fariiine of England : ''What I starve I" said
he. "and pine-apples to be had for a guinea
(•So) a piece I''

— It would seem that Gen. Scott did not
come home on any special mission. The N.
Y. liines says he make.^ no secret of the
fact that his rtason tor coming home was
the apprehension of immediate hostilities
between England and the United States, and
the fear thai if he did not embrace this op-
portunity of returning, he could not return
at a 1. The only high personage with whom
Gen. Scott had any political conversation
in Fiance was Prince Napoleon — and to
hiia he expressed his con6dent belief that,
if loreign nations do not interfere, the rebel-
lion would be effectually suppressed by mid-
summer, and that befor: that time cotton
for the supply of the immediate necessities
of other nations would be supplied through
the Southern ports, of which oar troops
are taking possession.

— The Boston Traveller of Monday of
last week says owing to a want of com-
munication with Fort Warren on Saturday
in consequence of the gale, the prisoners
taken from the Trent were ignorant of the
decision of the Federal Government in fa-
vor of their release. On Sunday, however,
newspapers were carried down, contrining
the official correspondence, and Mr. Maeoo
was noticed at the window of his room pe-
rusing the intelligence with a smile of ?atis-
laction upon his countenance: Mr. Slidell
kept in the back ground.

— "Hallo, stranger, you appear to be
traveling." "Yes, I always travel when
on a journey." "I think that I have seen
yovi somewhere." "Very likely yon have —
I have often been there." "And pray what
might be your name ?'" "Well, it might be
Sam Patch ; it isn't." "Have you
been long in these parts?" "Nevermore
than at present— five feet nine." -Do yen
get anything new ?" ''Yes I bought a new
whetstone this morning." ''1 thought so —
you are the sharpest blade I have seen on
this road."

— The Canadians are jubilant over the
issue of the Trent affair. The news of the
surrender of Mason and Slidell was received
on Saturday with joy along the whole line
ot the Lake Huron Railroad, demonstrated
by firing of guns of every description, and
the punishment of large qnantitira of liquor.

— Per contra to the charges against Gen.
Benbam by Gen. Rosecrang relative to mis-
management in Western Virginia, the friends
of the former stoutly defend him, and throw
the blame upon bis superior officer. Noth-
ing but a rigid investigation will settle the
question.

—A correspondent of the New York
World states that a rehearing of the famous
Burch divorce case will be had at the Feb-
ruary Term of the Circuit Court of Will

BRITISH NAVY AND OUH
OWN. ~-

D'^iiald .Vlcta>, th.- .\ia»»rje»ii ohip-
bjiliier, furnishes to 'he Boston Oommer-
ciid Bulletin a letter in n'ir>»rd to «he British
Navy, which has at thi- iiuir » peculiar in-
terest. He sayn thm the Britisfi tlovern-
luent ha-: now nflont 9v.> iron cafetl ships
ranging Iruni 22 t< 40 iruns. and fiom 600
to 1,250 hwi>e puW'T each. Uf thesi' two
have mad* trial tnp^—the '• Warrior" at-
taining the hijrh i»pee«i '>f 14,13 knoi», with
alt her unuameut, storrtt and provisions
al>oard The "Black Prince" ha.«" obtained
a higher speed than the -Warrior." In ad-
dition to these, two other iron- clad vessels
are building, and six others are to be built.
Five wooden ships are building, designed to
be armor-plated The coat of these vessels
will be some thirty-nine millions of dollars.
They are to be afloat within a year. The
French Goveniment will by the sam*' time
have afloat twenty-one clad ship««.

In reference to onr ability to compete
with these immense naval preparations, Mr.
McKay says :

It would be well for as to build, in one
year, a fleet of 500 to 600 meo-of-wnr
ships, trom a gunboat up to the largest class
of iron-cased frigate. It ig a well known
fact that wo built, in one year, the astonish-
ing number of 2,034 veaseli and sieamtrs,
ot all dlasses, measuring together 583,450
tons. A large number of these vessels were
as large as the biggest clau of frigates hitb*
erto constructed. What we hafe done onoe
we may do over again, and working at the
same rate, we would be able alone in our
merchant yards to turn out, in one year,
583 ships of 1,000 tons each. In our six
navy yards, where the choicest materials
are stocked for building a fleet ol 100 shijie.
60 more men-ot-war ahips might be built
in one year, making a total of 643 men of-
war ships of all casses, varying in their
armament from 3 to 60 guns. More than
a hundred of our greatest engineering firms
would complete all the mauhiuery necessary
to put iu these ships in less that a year.
Our capabilities and facilities of building
ships have not in the least suflered by the
loss ot the seceded States. They never
were ship-building States, and as late as
16G0 they only built (combiuedj one lull-
rigged ship, while the northern States built
110 ships of the same description. That is
to say, in plain words, all the seceded
Slates combined did not build even 'one i>er
cent.' of the sea-going ships built in the
United Slate?.

It is true, on a very urgent occasiou, \a a
great emergency, our couotry could largely
increa.se her navy in a few months, with very
powerful descriptions of vessels, if they
could proceed as follows : Cut down all
our liue-of-battle ships one or two decks,
case them with five- inch iron plates, put a
battery uf thirty or forty guns of the heav-
iest calibre ou board of them, and moor
them across the entrance ot our harbors
Plate our heavy irigates with shell-proof
iroi plate». and to make up for the addi-
tional weight -put iu(o them, do away with
their armament on the upper deck. Trans-
form one hundred of ocr best sea going iiier-
cbaut steanaerg into so many frigates, sloops,
dispatch and gunboats of a speed superior
to any inen-of war yet produced. Among
onr large clipper ships and traders, mure
than five hundred may be found that are
capable to bu transtormed into so many
efficient sailing itloops and frigates Their
length varies from 220 to 300 teet, their
breadth, from 40 to 52 feet and, whenever
they are cut down one deck, or their decks
are lowered, will be found capable of carry-
ing an armament varying from twenty to
fifty heavy guns, accoiding to their respec-
tive capt»citie.-. Twenty or thirty of our
best and largest clipper ships might very
well be transformed into powerful screw
frigates— as for instance the great Republic,
which exceeds in her dimensions the largest
English fifty gun frigates, while her shape
tor speed is incomparably superior. The
Bcnntling of all these ships is well known to
be larger than that of tie best and strong-
est men-of-war ships of our navy,

•' Among tho barks and brigs there are
certainly 400 to 500 capable of receiving
an anuametit of from 8 to 20 guns, and
more than a thousand of our large coasting
schooners that have a breadth of 28 to 30
leet and ov^ r, and a (<rta never surpafsed
for speed, can in a tew weeks be transformed
into men-ol-war schooners, armed with one
pivot gnn of the heaviest description in the
m ddle, and two or four 32 pounders at the
ends. These vessels have a very large sta-
bility, and the scantling of their timbers,
etc., in by 20 per cent heavier iban that ot
the common men-of-war schooners. Ihis
fleet of about 2,000 vessels of war, can,
(working with all the natural energy of our
nati)n) oe turned out in less time than four
to six months, and it would be sufficient to
protect our coast and meet the first storm.
Time would be so gained to build a fleet fit
to represent our great nation, and to make
our flag once more respected io all the seas
ot the globe.

Monday next, belwtjLii eleven aou twelve
o'clock iu il»e loreuooD. The funeral will
not be a state one, nor will the remain^j of
bib lioyal ilighoeea lie in state. But, few
and simple as are the rites which mark these
solemn occasion.-*, a great amount of prepa-
ration i** necessary beforehand, eit. George's
Chapel, Windsor, where the interment will
take place, has to be draped and carpeted
with black, the royal vault has t.o be opened
and time allowed lor the representatives of
foreign courts who will be deputtxl to attewi
on this occasion At the funeral the Priuce
of Wales will act as' chief mourner, support*
ed by tne Duke of Cambridge and by tSie
Crown Prince of Prussia. The r mains
will be laid in the royal vault. There are
two vaults beneath St George's Chapel —
the Gloucester and the royal vault. The for-
mer was finally built up after the interment
of her Royal Highness the Duchess of
Gloucestei. the IttSt member of that branch
ot the House of Hanover. The royal vaalt
is kept apart excloiively for the coffins ol
ibe immediate menxbers ot the reigning fam-
ily. Three gates dose the entrance to this
final renting plao** of departed royalty, the
keys of which are kept by the Sovereiifn,
the Lord Chamberlain, and the Dean of the
Chapels Royal. Except for the burial of
the Queen Dowager, who was laid by the
side of her royal bushajM), this vault baa
not been opened fJoce the lieati) of William
IV. On Monday, the inner shell and lead-
en coffin, whieh wdl enclose the remains o'
the Priuce Consort, were forwarded to Wind-
sor. According to custom the body will be
interred in four (»ffinp, the inner one, or
shell, being of polished caahogany, cased
outfide with lead ; then an outer, plain but
very massive o<jfBQ of mahogany ; over all
comos the state coffin or caee, ot crimson
velvet, and with massive silver gilt orna-
ments. On the leaden coffin is to be a silver
plate, engraved with the style and titles of
the deceased Prince. The outer mahogany
cofflo will simply bear a plate with hia name
and datea of bis birth and death. On the
state coffin will be the ooatomary silver gilt
plate bearing an inscription similar to that
on the leaden coffin.

The Time^ bag the IcUowing retOArki pn
the part which the Prince of Wales is now
called upou to ansume :

The Prince of Wales is rapidly ap-
proaching the age when a man is held to
be capable of every responsibility, and by
tho measure of years he should now be
as competent to assist his mother as the
Prince Consort when he assumed that duty,
ilc haa been so educated as to bring him
tn contact with a large variety of men, of
mindi>, of people, and of manners. By a
happy fureihought he has visited the very
nation that noty threatens to escape trom
worse difficulties by a war with its mother
country. It the Prince of Wales is ever
to be a wise and good Sovereign, he will
now be a wise and good son ; and if he
will ever feel any cause to devote himself
to his country a.s his parents have done,
he will feel it now. This is the time for
that self sacrifice on which tho rireatness
of a crowu, as well as the glory of a states
man, a soldier, or a priest, roust be found-
ed. This, indeed, is the occasion such as
historians and dramatists have loved to
describe in the lives of their favoritu
princes, when the Prince of Wales will
have to make a solemn choice between a
life of frivolity, perhaps of trouble and
misery, and a reign of usefulness, to make
his name blessed lorcver. He must resolve.

A GOOD SrORY.

A very good story is told at the expense
of Col, J. K ComHtock, wdo for many
vears '»a9 widely known as the " prince of
landloTd8"-^nd proprietor of the Olean
House in this village. Many years ago
Comstock wi*3 " legally served," for violat-
ing thu licen* law. The trial was had at
Porlv lie, and the justice, after hearing the
proofs, entered up a judgment against the
" ho»*t " of the Olean Hou«e. Of course
John was " hopping mad. ' Ue would
" carrp it up, and blow the judgment to

! ' Hon Benj. Chamberhn was then

first Judge of the county— and shortly after
the events, above partially narrated, the
Jndgs pat up for the nght with Col. Corn-
stock. Alter supper, John unburdened
himself to Judge Chamberlain, relating
very minutely the circumstances attending
hie coovictioo at Portville, Ac, <fec. The
Jadg(t blandly but strongly urged John to
carry the suit up to tho Common Pleas —
" there you are pretty sure to have justice
done ye !" Having sati-^fied himself that
Jndgu Chamberlain would do him justice.
Col. Oomslock directed his attorney to ap-
peal the cause to the Common Pleas of the
county. In due time, the cause was called.
Judgi) Chamberlain presiding, who upon
hearing the proofs, allegations, arguments,
&c., promptly affirmed the judgment of the
Justi<X''8 Court, to the utter confounding of
Col. Comstock'n attorney, who had antici -
patetl an easy victory for his client. Not
long lifter this. Judge Chamberlin called
again at tlie Olean House, and Col. Com-
stock was ot course glad to see him. In
the evening, " mine host " three or four
times sought to bring up his liquor case,
but the Judge evaded it. until Comstock
boltei right on to it thai t

"Judge, you remember my liquor suit T"
" Oh, yes, John, very well," replied the
Judge.

" Ycju advised me to carry it up to yoar
court, didn't you Judge?" aaid Comstock.

•' Yes, I did, John," said the Judge, "for
I wanted you to be dealt tairiy by."

' The deuce you did ! But you beat me
though, didn't you ?"— inquired Com.<<tock,
in hisi peculiarly Fearchiog manner.

*' Yes, John," said the Judge, looking
Comiitock very seriously in the face, " lAe
fcuX ti Johti, your liquor for a year past has
been w confoundedly poor, tiiot I hadn't the
courage to reverse tfU judgment'"

John was silently sa'isBed, and bas never
carri.jd up any more liquor suits. — Olean

A MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.

fi-om the Chicago Tiibunt,"rd.

We are pained to write that Charles E.
ZellsT, foreman of the job press rooms ot
the Tr.bane ofiice, was killed yesterday
morning. At the time of the sad and fatal
occurrence, Mr. Z.-llar was shifdng a pally
belt in order to start one of the large
Adam?,' pnsses. In some way his hand be-
came entangled t)etween the belt and the
druni, and he was drawn up in an instant,
his head striking the ceiling with fearful
force and dashed down to the floor again,
faliing upon bis lace.

Tfie press was stopped immediately, the
enipioyeet* ol the ifhce came to his aid, and
a phi'sician wa3 summoned, hut his services
were of no avail, as the unfortunate man
died after lingering in a halt senseless condi-
tion about ten minutes. During this time
he spoke but once, and then in reply to an
interrogatory whether his wife should be
sent for.

now JOHM BROWN SAVED THE
CAPITAL.

The Washington correspondent of the
Boston Journal tells the following singular
story of the way io which John Brown's
lawless raid into Virginia became the re-
mote cause of the salvation of the Federal
Capital :

When the marines dashed op to the door
of the engine house, where Virginia chiv-
alry quailed, they seized not cnly John
Brown, but a quantity of powder, within
the building, which be bad brought from
Pennsylvania. After Brown and hi^ party
were secured, the powder was placed in one
ot the buildings, where it remained till April
last. When the United States troops found
that Virginia forces were preparing to make
a descent upon the ferry for the purpose of
capturing the arms, they looked about for
ammunition. They did not dare to visit
the magazine, for there were sharp eyes
which watched every movement, and an at-
tempt to take powder from there would
precipitate an attac'i. Then it was that
John Brown's powder was valuable. It
was in small packages, and where it could
be taken and distributed unknown to any
outsiders. It was placed io the different
buildings, the trains were laid, and just as
the Virginians thought tho prize was theirs,
they found that the Qames were ahead of
them. It was designed that the several
thousand stand of arms there stored should
be distributed in Baltimore, where, ai you
know, the outbreak immediately occurred,
and that thence a descent would be made
upon Washington. So John Brown's pow-
der saved the capital. All of this will ap-
pear, I am informed, with satisfactory ev-
idence, io the report of the committee ap-
pointed to investigate the Harper's Ferry
afiair.

is the new Seat ot government; Congress is

One way or another, there appe&rs to be
a gcKxi deal of patching going on among
them, which is not to be wondered at, con-
sidering that they wear out their seats of
government so last.

A BliANK DESCBIPTION.

A late French writer, in preparing a
school-book as a "History of the World,"
has attempted to l>e witty by leaving those
fourteen pages devoted to the United Statfs
blank. We are afraid the Great American
Republic will never recover from such a
blow as that! Considering that a genuine
Frenchman fancies there can be no world,
in point of fact, outside the barriered of Par-
i.S just as the Chinese call all humanity be-
yond the Celestial Kingdom 'outside bar-
barians," the only wonder u that the Gallic
historian condescended to leave us, of this
region, even a page to fill up. We should
nuggett, however, that the French writer,
in view of the short harvest bis country is
enjoying at present, and the necessity it
consequently lal)ors under of purchasing
supplies from u.i would do well to write
'Granary of the World" on his blank pages.
It would answer just as well for the United
Slates as any other name in that book of
his. As long as we can carry on a civil
war without going abroad for a dollar, and
can, at the same time, feed ourselves and
the short-cropped nations ot Europe, i
makes little difference what Europe term
U.S. We can aBord to smile at their con
tempt, so longa.i we arc permitted to pock-
et their cash and perceive their envy. —

— By the death of Prince Albert, the
Prince of Wales, the beir apparent, becomes,
it is said, a more active participant in mat-
ters of state. It has been suggested that
Queen Victoria in herafBiction.and in view
of the hereditary malady witb which she
is supposed to be threatened, will be likely
to abdicate the throne in his favor. For
this, however, there can of course be no
authority, nor could it affect in the least
degree the general character and disposition
of the Governme&t, if she should do so.
Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, was born
November 21, 1840, and is, therefore just
turned of twenty-one.

— Colonels Meagher and Asbotb have
been nominated to the Senate as Brigadier-

■<rm IT L. THURSDAY. JAN iT

THE INAUGURATION.

A joint commitlee on tho part ot the
House was appointed yesterday to aot with
a similar comtuilt^e to bo appointed by
the Senate for the purpose of making ar-
raugemeiita for the inauguration of the
State officers elect, (vhioij is to come oflF
10 day at twelve o'clock.

Owing to the early adjournment of the
Senate, no notice was transmitted to thorn
of this action, consequently no comrailtee
was appointed by the Senate, und the
House committee were obliged to adopt
such mea8ure.s as might bo necessary for
the occasion, tnistitig that the committee
which may be appointed this morning by
the Senate will confirm their action.

We learn that the arrangements are
very simple. It is expected that the oflkers
elect, together with the other Stata oflQcera,
Judges of the Supreme and District Court,
and the members and offi'.'ers of tho State
Legislature and such citizens as may desire
tu participate in the inauguration, will
meet &' the Winslow House and proceed
to the Oapitoi at twelvo o'clock. It is
also expected that ti ve companies of the
Fourtn Regiment, under ihe command of
Col. John B Sanborn, now stationed at
fort Sae!ling,will be in attendance atid will
participate in the ceremonies. The splended
band of that Regiment will also be present.
The oath of ofifice will be administered
by Chief Justice Emmett in the llallof tho
House of Representatives, whereupon the
annual message of Gov. Ramsey will be
delivered.

honesty and fidelity of the di.^ehorpe of our I
duties as State Printer cannot be impeached, j
Witliout such reque.'^t, on our part, we have
no idea that the Ligislature A-ouid take nny
notice ot charges oj fraud emanating from

TBE FINAKri.lL HISTORY

IN

OF

PECULATION AND FEIUURY.

rUB CII.VRGESOF THE PIONEER.

Yesterday we showed that thf several
charges made by Earlc S. (Joodrich in the
Pioneer of the day before, were entirely
ba.sele8S. So far as specifications were
made, we disposed ot them .'•peciQcally.

Wo ui^o anticipated a charge which was
mitde in yesterday's Pioneer, respecting the
excess ot paper charged for the Journals, by
stating the facts, viz : that the Journals were
O'n printed in our office, or under our im-
mediate 9npervision. and that we had no-
thing personally to do with either the print-
ing of the Journals, the bills rendered for
them, or the pay received fur the same. By
reference to the Journals it will be seen on
the title page that they were " printed at

THE C«STB.AJ> RaPfBLICvN OfFFCK. F.\RI-
BAULT."

The circuruistanct.s under which the work
came to be done there, arc well understood,
and well known to Mr. |(j!oodrich himself.
The very bill that Mr. Goodrich publishes,
dated April 27th, find Mr. Brown's receipt
u^>oii it, u-Jiick Mr. Gooilriih suppresses.

NVe do not .^eek by this statement to be
relieved of the legal liability that attaches
to us for any error in said bill ; but as Mr.
Goodrieii's obj-^ct is to fasten the charge of
fraud on Wm. R. Marshall personally, it is
a perfectly legitimate defense that person-
ally we had nothing to do with the transac-
tion.

Bat we cannot admit that Mr. Brown has
perpetrated any fraud. We do not deny
or doubt that the bill of April 27th charges
for more paper than was 'ised on the Jour-
nals. But whatever the amount of such
difiiirence shall prove to be, Mr. Brown will
account for it, and explain how it occurred.

We have already said that .VI r. Brown
had been communicated with, and would be
heard trom promptly.

We have not thought it necessary to go
over the computation of tokens of press
work on the Journals. We have shown, in
our former article, that a similar alleged
overcharge on the press work of the Ses-
pion Laws was groundle.s3 ; and since then
have h^d the satisfaction of a frank admission
from Mr. Goodrich's expert that our e.xpla-
cation was entirely correct.

In Mr. Goodrich's last article ho parades
two or three small items — mileage, per diem
certificates, &c., in which he grossly mistakes
the elements of computing them ; for exam
pie, be says the mileage certificates contain
but 1.000 ems; whereas, by the usual and
proper mode of measurement, they contain
about 3000 ems. It is unnecessary to go into
detail in exposing the misrepresentations
by which he supports hi,s charges of fraud.
There are many items of work that enter
into the cost of printing, that a non-profes-
sional man would not readily consider. For
example, cutting, trimming, blank pressing,
folding, stitching, etc. Mr Goodrich canj not
plead ignorance of these things, yet in his
endeavor to show fraud lu- enters into com-
putations that would find a parallel in house
building, if the number of yards of plaster-
ing in a room were reckoned by carefully
deducting windows, doors, base boards, fire
places and stove pipe hole ; or an estimate
ut painting by the yard, in which the sur-
facejofa window should be computed mukin"
deductions for the panes of gla.s3. A builder
would conclude a man was a fool, if be should
ask any such compntation. He would
say, ibul in measuring plastering, the dimen-
tions of the room were the elements, and
that no deductions were mado^for openings ;
and that in painter's work the dimensions of
the window were reckoned, and not of the

K.>;.\.MPI.K NU-MBER TWU.

Thf next bill we open, taken like the
other at random from the Auditor's files,
is tor the printing of the House and Senate
Journals of 1856. We need not go through
the various arithmetical ■^teps otthe process
of calculation in each instance, act our read>
ers are larailiar with fluni. Mr. Goodrich's
mode of computation Im entirely accurate,
except in the omission lo make the usual
allowances for waste, deficiences, tractions,
&e., and we will- concede to him thrice the
margin (tii these items that we claim for our^
selves. These rules are a^ fi>iloi,v? ;

1. To find the number of reams of paper
in a given edition— aividt- the number of

I pages in the book by 32. and the quotient
will be the number of sheets in one copy ;
multiply this by the number ot copies print-
ed, and we have the number of sheets used
in the whole edition ; divide this by 480
and we have the number oi' reams of paper
used in the edition.

2. To find the number of tokens of press
work upon Mr. Goodrich's 16 page press^ —
divide the number of pages by 16, raaltiply
the quotient by tb^ number ol copies, and
divide the product by 2-10, the quotient
will be the number of tokens,

In the following exhibit we have given
first the items as charged by Mr. Goodrich,
and -econd the actual amoucfe computed
according to the above simple rules :

Mr. S.VIITIJ, from the committee ap- |
pointed to fix the lime and place for can- j
vassing the votes for State oflicers, re-
ported that the hour of half-past ten to day |
had been agreed upon, and the place of
meeting the Hall of the House of Repre-
sentatives.

On motion of Mr. REINER, a committee
of three was appointed to prepare perma-
ment rules for the government of the
Senate.

The Cqair appointed Messrs. Reiner,
Lowry and Cook.

Mr. HKATON, who was absent yeier-
day, asked permission to record his vote
in favor of all the officers elected yester-
day, which was granted.

On motion of Mr. COOK, the Senate
took a recess preparatory to meeting the
House in joint convention.

The Senate having again " assembled
after the completion of the canvass,

Mr. SWIFT offered a resolution that the
Secretary be instructed to inform the House
that the Senate will meet that body to-
morrow at 12 o'clock for the purpose of
inaugurating the State officers. Adopted.

Earle S. Goodrich being duly sworn on his
oath says that to the best of his knowledge
and belief the foregoing account for the priat-
ing of the Journals of the two Houses of the
first session of the State Legislature w Just.
EARLE S. GOODRICH,
Sworn and subscribed before me on the 25th
day of August, 1358.

W. F. Dunbar, State Auditor.
From fraud to perjury is but a step — but
that step accomplishes almost the last degree
of human wickednest*, and forms a fitting
climax lor our second chapter. Having
reached this depth ih -• track of ouriovestiga-
tions will lit hereaiter over a dead level of
unvarying infamy.

HOW IT WAS DONE.

The people of Minnesota have always
been astounded and amazed at the enor-
mous sums of money poured into the Pioneer
concern by the Democratic Lf gislature of
1858, amounting to 888,302,4b I ! :— as much
money as it now fakes under Republican
rule, to carry on the whole State Govern-
ment, legislative expenses, salaries of State
officers. State printing, the State prison,
Normal school, and all, included.: Every-
body has always been anxious to know
bow it was done. An examination of the
accounts siiow that a cool and deliberate
system of frauds wjk. carried out in the ac-
counts rendered, and that these frauds were
coolly, deliberately and solemnly sieoT^i to by
Earle S. Goodrich as "just," and thus the
treasury of the people was robbed.

that the divisions of Generals McCall and
Smith, with Ayers' and Mott's batteries
and 250 wagons shoild make a reconnoii-

rewarded the expedil on.

LOCAL AFFAIRS.

I-HE WAYS AND mCANS.

The adjournment of Congress over the
holidays has given the Committee on
separate ribs of sash. Just so correspond- i ^V^ ^^'^ Means of the House time to
iogly— as Mr. Goodrich welj^knows— is it
In printing, and with equally good reason.
Our readers will hardly justify as, in giv-
ing so much space to refuting tbe.se mali-
cious caiumnie.=, and baseless charges of

-f

ewiodliog, and we shall not be disposed to
tax their patience further in exposing them.
We have already taken the necessary steps
to bring the matter of these charges to the
•ttentioo of the Legislature, and to invite a
thorough invebtjgation, confident that the

draw up various bills necessary to place
our National finances on a proper footing. It
is understood that Secretary Chase 'g bank
scheme has been fully perfected, and tho
bill as drawn up has received his sanction.
What its details are is as yet unknown. It '
provides, however, for the substitution of |
United States stocks for State Blocks, and
it is supposed will enhance the value of
United States securities. The question of
demand notes verrus exchequer bills is stil
a matter of dispute.

THE FEDERAL PRINTING.

fro7nth6 Winova Republican, 6tk.

We observe that the St. Paul Pmuer
and Democrat has been chosen to publish
the acts of Congre-^, and to do such other
printing for the Government as may be re-
quired in this State— thus virtually super-
cedings the Presa, which ha« performed this
duty daring the past year. This fact ar-
gues one of two things; Either that the
Honorable Willinm Windom. and the
Honorable Cyrus Aldrich, are guilty of the
basest ingratitude, in selecting for the pur
pose named, a sheet which has ever been hos-
tile to them, personally and politically, while
the Fre'>8 and other Republican journals
in the State have invariably given them
support; or, that they have been neglectful
ol a very obvious duty, and premitted the
choice to be made without any considera-
tion on their part. If there be one horn
of this dilemma less objectionable than the
other, it is optional with the Honorable
Messrs. Aldrich and Windom to accept
that which is the leas-t displeasing to them.
They can derive but little credit Irom either.

AN OLTRAGE IF TBCB
From the Ctntral Rf publican.

The Pioneer & Democrat, of January 3rd,
announces to the world that that paper has
been appointed the official paper of the
United States for Minnesota, in place of the
pRE.ss. If that is true, the Administration
deserves and will receive the unqualified and
unmitigated censures of every true Repub-
lican iu Minnesota. It is an outrage upon a
man whose greatest crime has been his blind
devotion to the President, which even James
Buchanan, treacherous as he was to his
country, would have scorned to perpetrate.
If Mr. Lincoln wishes his administration to
make that of James Buchanan respectable,
a few such operations will accomplish the
object.

—The Washington corret^pondents re-
port that the British troops now pouring
into Canada, as a menace to this country,
are to be permitted to pass through Maine,
to.<!ave the almost impassable overland jour-
ney of 700 miles through a wilderness in the
dead of winter, the St. Lawrence being fro-
zen up. If there is any foundation for this
story, it shows a rare magnanimity on the
pan ot our Government When arms pro
cured for the American Government are
stopped on their way by royal proclamax 1
tion; when rebel privf^teers are permitted to i
fit out at Canadian, not to say English ports' i
and while our Government vessels in dis- '
tress are not even allowed to coal at the
same places, it is a charming evidence of
our good nature to permit Great Britain to
use our ports and railroads to place her
troop') in a position to do us the most dam-
age possible in the event of a war.

The Minnesota Cavalry A letter of

recent date from Capt. Von Minden statcft
that his company have at length procured
their horses, and that they are now cavalry
in fact as well as in name. Ail three of the
Minnesota companies of cavalry have beec
attached to the regiment known af
" Curtis's Horse," of which Col. Lowe ol
Iowa is the commandant. The three com-
panies from our State are known in the reg
imeni as the Minnesota Battalion, and are
really entitled to a Major to be commission,
ed by Gov. Ramsey; but whether they
will get one i.< not yet certain.

The boys of ail the companies were well
and in good spirits when Capt. Von Minden
wrote.

Inaitouration Day.— The programme for
to-day at the Capitol is published else-
where. Secretary Baker and his worthy
assistant, Maj. Snow, have prepared ample
accommodations for the ladies who may
wish to attend the inaugural ceremonies.
In fact, we are requested by them to extend
an invitation to the ladies to be present on
the occasion. Should the military come
down, there will be quite an imposing display.

SiiEEB Impudence. — A person professing
to be the Auditor of Manomin county sent
in an unattested statement purporting to be
the election returns from tha t little speck
upon the map of Minnesota, having no
dnubt the impudence to presume they would

was done on Thanksgiving, Christmas and
New Year days. The boys usually have
a high old dance in the dining hall after din-
ner. The custom in a generous one, and
the influence salutary.

— Mr. SheriflF Davis met with quite a
severe accident Saturday evening, which will
confine him to his room for some days.
While approaching tho city on the St. Paul
road, his horse became frightened and ran
away, thro iving him and a little eon of Mr.
Seymour from the cutter. It is supposed
Mr. Davis became entangled by his lines,
for he was evidently dragged through t he
snow and over rocks for a distance of over
one hundred yards. The boy was not in-
jured, but Mr. Davis was badly cut and
braised, rendering him insensible for several
hours. He was conveyed to the Sawyer
House, where he was attended by Dr.
Rhodes and rrceived every possible attens
tion. We are happy to be able to announce
that his wounds are not of a dangerous
character, though it is almost miraculous
that he was not killed.

Frederick, Md., Jan. 7.
A letter from the 12th Indiana at Sharps
burg, states that a portion of the political
prisoners recently from Williamsport to
Washington, were captured at Shepards-
town by a detachment from that regiment.
They report 60 to 80 cavalry encamped
near that place. There are also two com-
panies of militia at Morgan Spring, one mile
east of Shepardstown. It is reported by
another source that the rebel pickets have
been recently strongly reinforced all along
the river from Shepardstown to Little
Georgetown nearly opposite the four locks
above the dam number five. Most of the
pickets are withdrawn from our observation
during the day, but return in force after
nightfall.

Waid, British charge de aSairs,read a paper
purporting to be Earl f '.ussels note to Lord
Lyons in regard to the Trent aflFair. This
note is worded with graat moderation. It
describes the seizure ol Mason and Slidel!,
in the terms of Capt. Williams report to
the admiralty. It makes no mention of the
opinion of the law officers of the crown, of
which so much has been said in the papers
but simply and explicitly characterizes the
capture of the commissioners as an infrac-
tion of the low of naticDs and an insult to
the English flag. It de«!lare8 that the cabi
net at St. James coniiidering the cordial
and friendly character ( f the relations be-
tween Eoglang and the United States, can-
not doubt for an instant that the Capt.
of the San Jacinto must have acted without
authority from his Government. It then adds
that the British governnent feels confident
the the Government of the United States
will not hesitate to takj the only step pos-
sible under the circumstances, namely : the
release of the prisoners t nd making at the
same time suitable reparation for the insult
offered to the British flig.

Information from official sources, not re-

certain that the English part of the allied
expedition will soon occupy Matamoras, if,
inae"d, it baa not a ready done so for the par-
pose of opening illicit trade via Brownville,
with rebels. It is even believed in well in-
formed quarters that En^riaod joined France
and Spain for the especial purpose of im -
porting contraband and exporting cotton
into and from the South. Here" foreign
men discern a speck of war more ominous
than the seizure of Mason and Slidell.

Fremont arrived to-night. He is to
come before the committee on the conduct
of tiie war on Monday. Fied Conkling is
to give him a dinner early next week, at
which Greely and others of Fremont's faith
will be guests. Five more flags were pre-
sented to the Pennsylvania regiments near
Alexandria, to-day. Several Penobjlvania
Congressmen were present and made ppeech-

were at last awakening to the enormity of
the rebellion, but feared the Administration
uia.<i not prepared to handle the rebels tctthotU

The water has been drawn off from the

LETTER FBO.TI DR. VAN INGEN.

[Dr. Van Ingea in an interesting private
letter to a Irieud in this city, dated Wash-
Ingioa, Dec. 26tb, gives a few particulars of
hia tirst day's experience in the armv. We
we permitted to niuke the accompanyiog ex-
tracts ]

" To-day has been my firpl day iu camp.
Gen- Stoneman is Chief ot Cavalry, and his
oEBee is on 19t.h street, where iccurale ia-
tormation as to all cavalry camps is siippos-
«fd to be obtainable. His clerk received
me with great courtesy tbia morning, and I
am to present hira a gold j>en to-tnorrow,
lor his sendiog me arouod three mile?, by
14th street, to find the camp of Col. Crook's
cavalry, half a mile Irora his ofEce. Out
15th street and out, and out 1 Ront with-
out much troublt', but by a roundabout
walk of about three miles or so, I reached
tiie camp grouod a plateau of clay border-
ed by u grove, and near a mansion of some
pretension, converted by the einpire of war
into sutler's quarters Bald and naked clay
ground was almost turned itiio a grove by a
profusion of evergreens, cedar and pine,
which the men as a poor apology for Cbridt-
nias hud cut and planted. Like the poor
fellows' Christmas joys from home, poor
rootless treed. At the entrance of the tents
of the principal officers, arches of evergreen
had been constructed, e3f)ecial honor to the
Lieulenants. Lieut. Bell, officer of the
guard for the day, met me at the angle of
the encampment next the highway, and gave
mt a hearty welcome. He conducted me
at once to the business teof appropriated to
the officer of the day ; a rough deal -table
supported on p8g3 driven into the ground,
Qu extempore book-case of the same mate-
rial, with all manner of blank lorms for the
routine of business in the camp, with some
execrable apologies for pens and pen^holder?,
c.institatf?d the business apparati:s. * *

•' But the scene changes ; I am approach-
ing Columbian College, now a general hos-
pital. " Adeste Fidelis, " in slow and mea.s-
ored cadence falls upon my ear from mar-
tial iustruments. On the slope which de-
scends from the hospital a funeral cortege
ol soldiers in full dress moves slowly towards
the city. It was the first music that greet
ed me as I approached the vast encamp-
ment ; a funeral requiem in intention,
tboagh in facta jubilant Christmas anthem.
The band precedetl, then half the company
of the deccas.d Lieutenant, then tfie ambu-
lance bearins; his remains to be transmitted
to his friends, then the remainder of the
company, and bringing up the rear a pla-
toon of officers. Lieut. Tyler, of Sullivan
county, brother ol the Captain of his com-
pany, of the same name, us I learned, was
gone. The Chaplain of the 10th Legion
faud celebrated the funeral services over in
the camp, thoug>h himself on the sick list.
The efltict on the soldiers by the wayside
and in the fields by the funeral scene und
music was touching fo witness, as it was
creditable to them. .'\.l! paused and gazed
with silent interest.

•♦ You will remember my words uttered
\n prospect of a war, " Disea.se devouring
faster than the sword." To-day experience
and observation in camp and hospital has
given to them a mournful reflection. War
is a necessity, and has its glorious compen-
sations ; but " woe to him by whom the of-
fense cometh !"

•' Reaching cow ati eminence near Colum-
bian College — now an United States Gener-
al Hospital — hills and plateaus on every
hand covered with tents seen in va.<t groups
through the openings of the groves, met ray
eye on every haud, and •• How goodly a'e
thy tents, oh Jacob, and thy tabernacles,
oh, Israel !" swelled in my heart and burst
involuntarily from my lips. It was the ex-
torted exclamation of an apostate and an
enemy under similar circumstances. How
much more should it warm the heart and
prompt the acclamations of a frier.d and a
lover of his country ! What a trea.sury of
blessings in cottage and in hall, for heart and
head and eye, in this army, designed to re-
cover, to guard and to transmit to uncon-
scious inheritors, of all that is involved in
these sacred words, My Country !

' It is this view of our array that givcg
it its interest to mo as the divinely appoint-
ed restorer and guardian ot my country's
blessings ; and this compensates to my mind
for the imperfections and the evil inherent in
al ibuman agencies for good ,and certainly not
least of all in armies. Aly heart's desire is
that the functions of my office may tend to
abate the evil and to multiply the good.

" But we are at the camp of the 8lh Cav-
alry and I was seated on the solitary camp
stool in the business tent jotting down these
way'Dotes. The scene from the crevice call-
ed the tent door, was picturesque ; ramp-
fires surrounded by tlie privates, and camp-
followers occupied most miscellaneously,
boys making a finish with eager appetite of
some choice remnant of the Christmas ra-
tions, some poking the fire and shouting to
the axeman to supply more fuel, clothes
washing and drying, letter-writing— an infi-
nlte variety.

" Brief earnest greetings from several of
the officers, old friends, and introductions to
others, and by a sort of instinct we proceed-
ed to the hospital tent, large and commodi-
ous, warmed by a powerful stove but full of

sick men. Five minutes, conversation le-
vealed a truth which U" i>iie cogoizaiii of
army iile will question, n.unciv, ti.ai heart
sickness kills faster than tiodily disease.
The poor boys wore homesick, every soul
of them, und the tall nurse whose stalwart
Ibria ami honest I'hri.sliun purpose had
prompted the well-meaning recommenda-
tion of inexperience that sent her with the
ret»iuient, luost homesick of them all, lay
moaning piteously upon tlie Hour. 1 Iclt
the pulses of them all and gave my diag-
nosis wiihout a fee, and my prescription to
" cheer up." It had its influeoce and even
the poor uurse's face was wrinkled by a
smile. Above all when 1 called for from
the Surgeon the names and the diseases of
the poor boys, scattered in general hospi-
tals about the city, that I might seek them
out at once and care for ihem, a general
sunshine seemed to have broken through
the tent folds

"And now after a mile's tramping through
squads at drill, and ambulances and army
wagons, we are at the general hospital,
Columbian College. Clean, spacious, cheer-
ful and beautifully situated, the crossing of
its threshold inspired hope. I am shown to

he director's office and enter it a stranger
doubting whether I may be received in the
character of an intruder, the Chief Clerk
accosts Bce as a Minnesotian and a friend,
and make? me free with the Hospital, The
head surgeon adds his courteous welcome
and I am soon by the bedside of the
patients from our camp. 1 will only add
that there I found myself thankfully at
home and led by the hand of Providence I
humbly trust to a sphere in which I may
do good.'"

From Kentucky.

To the Sdiior of St. Paul Press.

Lebaxov, Ky.; Dec. 81. 1861.

At length the time ha.s come for the Sec-
ond to take its share in this war for the
Union. We start to-morrow morning.
The announcement of our destination is not
yet made public, but by the lime this will
reach you, it will be known that we have
gone to Columbia (not Colum6««), then to
Somerset, and next probably (this last is
my conjecture merely) to Knoxville Tenn.

The men are delighted at the movement.
The prospect of going after the great "Gally-
wbopper'' or Wildcat renown gives nerve
and strength to many who have always felt,
lately, "too sick to drill," They have in
fact greatly improved in morale and pfiijs'gue
since the regiment came to this place, and
I think the Second will not be unworthy of
the State.

Last evening the old, little tents were ex-
changed for Sibley tents. Five of the new
kind are ailowfcd to each Company. They
are on the plan of the Indian •tepee," and
are both more convenient and better venti-
lated than the old. In fact we have every-
thing requisite, and several superfluities.

The officers of the regiment have been
before the Examining Board during the
past week. I hear that they generally were
foucd belter qualified than those of any
other regiment who have been before the
same Board, and the number examined by
them exceeded two hundred before ours
were reached. Sueh procf of the competen-
cy of our offioeis gives us confidence, which
is worth more than scores of men.

The holidays are being variously cele-
brated by officers and men: the most saiis-
factory U the New Year's call which we
siiall set out to-morrow, to pay to Parson
Erownlow, and our Union brethreu of East
Tenneasee.

Let me, finally, assure all friends ot the
Second, that we go forward, in good health,
and the best of spirits; and good clothing,
sufficient subsistence, plenty ot ammunition,
and a good gun for every right shoulder.
Our only disturbance is the concerc leet
Zollicoffer's business engagements will call
him away from Somerset, before we can
reach him.

QULV.

ARMY CII.IPI^AIIVS— .QUESTION'
ABL.R ECON'O.UV.

From the Philadclj hia Jingxiirer, Dec. 26.

Last week the House Committee ou Mil-
itary Affairs was charged to inquire into
the expediency of reducing the salary of
chaplains in the army to nine Hundred dol -
lars — about the compensation of a depart-
ment messeng'-r or janitor. It can hardly
be expected that .such a degradation of these
offic. rs will be considered either a wise or
truly economical procedure.

The articles of War have alwaysi recog-
nized the importance of the chaplain's office.
If our memory does not mislead, the fir-t
bill passed by the old Confederation, regu-
latmg the pay of army officials, made the
compensation of the captain and chaplain
the same.

When the army was re-organized in 1808,
it was provided that every brigade should
have a chnplain. who should receive the pay
and emoluments of a Mnjor. After the
war of 1812, this and other provisions were
repealed, when the army was reduced to a
peace footing.

Congress at the last special session, again
enacted that each regiment should be enti-
tled to a chaplain, who shoald receive the
pay of a captain of civalry.

Under the influence of a patriotism aa
pure as that which constrained the brother of
Charles Carroll, President Dwight, of Yale
College, Bishop White, and Dr. Duffield, of
this city, to lend their influence to the coun-
try in the days of the Revolution, some of
the best educated and most respectable
clergymen of the Eastern, Middle and
Western State?, have surrendered the quiet
and pleasing associations of the pastorate,
not to become " fighting parscn.s," like
rebel Bishop Polk and loyal Brownlow, but
good Samaritans, ready to share the priva-
tions of the camp, the fatigues of the march,
the dangers of the field, and assist in binding
up soldiers' wounds, pouring iu oil and wiue,
bringing them to an inn aod taking care of
them.

The fact that four of the Chaplains at
Bull Run were captured, and that three of
them are still in the casemates at Moultre
or prisons of Charleston, companions of
Corcoran ; and faithful as Abdiel in their
allegiance, is abundant evidence that they
were not as swift-footed as the Mercury-like
gentlemen who reached Washington in good
season for the next day's session, and fur-
ther proves that they were willing to stand
by the men to the last. Mulligan, Meagher,
Burnssde, and others who have been in the
thickest of the fight, agree that their Chap-
lains did not flinch in the trying hour.
Reduce the salaries of such men to the

same u.s those received I y the mes,s<M(gers
aiul lackeys ol the Depai tineuis und ('on-
sress, and you drive them from the army,
humiliated by the low ustiuiate placed upon
their servlees, and that, too, contrary to
the precedents estal;>li8hed bv all legislation,
from 1770 to 1861.

The plaee of those now in the army can,
perhap-;, hx.- tilled with goi d luen, but not of
that peculiar order f tahiil. dispositiijii and
culture sii nece.ssary t«» obtain influence
with the field and company officers.

It niay be that a curtailment of expense
in tlii-< branch of the service is imperatively
demanded If this is so, let there not be a
reduction of ."alary, and thus of .standard,
but a reduction of numtjer. Now that the
regiments are assigned to brigades, it may
be expedient to repeal the existing provision,
and re enact the law in existence during
the last war with Great Britain, that there
shall be a chaplain to each brigade, with
the rank and pay of Major, to be silected
by the President from regimental chaplains
now in the service, on account of the cath
olicity of his views and fitness for this dif-
ficult office, with a proviso, to prevent jeul
ousy among rival denominations, that not
more than one- fourth of the chaplams shall
at any one period belong to the same eccle-
siastical body.

By some such legislation, about two thirds
of the money expended in the payment of
separate regimental chaplains may be
saved, and the morals of the army be nearly
as well guarded.

THE SCHOOL SYSTE.TI OF !TI1!VNE-
SOTA.

From the staU Kews.

The present School System of this State,
is notoriously impracticable. It is no sys-
tem at all. It is the result of an attempt
to combine three distinct schools bills that
were brought before the Legislature two
years ago. Instead of a careful digest in-
to a single and complete system, the pre-
sent law was formed by jointicg together
detached portions of the three bills. Of
course it is incomprehensible. Every one
who attempts to understand it and apply
it, is disheartened. It has given rise to in-
numerable quarrels and perplexities, and
every school officer is disgusted with the at-
tempt to secure its working.

Dr Crary, the present eflicient State Su-
perintendent of Instruction, convinced of
the necessity of a different Law, has framed
one which he|prcpose8 to submit iu Lis an-
nual Report, for the consideration of the
Legislature at its coming session.

We have been favored with an inspection
of the proposed law and can say of the sys-
tem that it has at least unity and intelligi-
bility. It k as simple as any State system
can be, and its author claims for it a great
econdmy; the number of its officers being
about three thousand less than under the
present law, the actual expeui*es are great-
ly reduced. Its other merits are posiive
and commend themselves at once to the
reader. We cannot properly at this time
discuss the features of the proposed bill as
it is not formally before the people, but we
bespeak for it the careful and candid con-
sideration of our Legislators. In the mean-
time our readers, we are £'4re will be de-
lighted to know that there will be an at-

RAII.BOADS.

From tht Rochester Ciry Post.

Except a paragraph iu the St. Paul Press
of a week or two since announcing the ar-
rival ot some "capitali-its" to bid for the
completion of the Minnesota and Pacific
Railroad, we have seen nothing in our ex-
changes of late, with reference to a subject
which— war or no war — is one one of para-
mount interest to the Raiiroadess inhabi-
tants of Minnesota. The usual speculations
as to the action of the Legislature in the
premises, are unventured — the various inter-
ests involved appear to have no exponents
—and the different sections of the State
which have, or fancy they have, differing
interests in relation to this subject, have
thus far refrained irom quibbling about
quarreling with or fighting o9, every propo
sition which fails to embody a project for a
Railroad through the very premises of each
one of the High Disputants in question

Much of this temperance, doubtless,
results from the overshadowing interest
which attaches to the War, and the inci-
dents growing out thereof. Something,
however, we trust, is due to the fact that by
this time the people have grown wiser by
the unsatisfactory and humiliating exper-
enees of the past, and iiave learned that, for
the present at least, Minnesota cannot be
overlaid with a net work of Railroads.
This, it is true, we have beea repeatedly
promised ; and to this end special legislation
was had three years ago, two years ago, and
one year ago ; but the high contracting
parties, in each and every case have igno-
miniously failed to fulfil their promises and
guarantees ; and we arc to day as far from
the realization of the seductive illu-ions of
the miserable schemers who have controlled
the legislation of the State, as we were at
the date of the munificent grant of Lands
by Congress for the encouragement of the
State in the projection of needed internal
improvements

As we remarked above, the absence of
the wonted bickerings incident to the open-
ing of the session, leads us to hope that the
people have at last learned wisdom in this
behalj—tbat they have given up the popular
delusion of spanning every f=irns in the
State with a Railroad, and have determined
to acquiesce in the more promising and
hopeful plan of building one railroad at a
lime, along such line, and through such por-
tion of the State, as shall best accommodate
the whole people, and the whole commerce
ol the State.

One main grand Trunk thoroughfare
through the chief producing and agricultur-
al c<^ntre of the State, is what we sorely
need,— what we must have,aod what we can
have. Ail that is needed, we firmly believe,
to secure it. Is the relinquishment, on the
part of the more remote localities, of the
selfish determination to prevent the building
of any road, until the pet scheme of each
particular section shall be on the high road
to completion aod success. The self denial
of such will bo but ol short duration ; for
the fact is pertinent that the final comple-
tion of every Land Grant Road iu the State
is only a question of time. Sooner or later
they will ail be accomplished facts, — but
never, so long as the selfish interests of one
section shall form the groundwork of oppo-
sition to the interests of every other locality
in the State.

If, then, the inference we have drawn at
the commencement ot this article be a fair
one, our people may reasonably look for-
ward to the early completion of at least
one important thoroughfare through the
heart of the producing region o! the State.
War or no war, there are parties who, with
such encouragement as the State can easily
extend, can and will immediately take bold
of the project of building us a Railroad —
thus conferring upon the people an inestima-
ble benefit, and securing to the State at
large an inseparable adjuent to her future
prosperity and glory.

The need of a first ela.ss Mil! of this kind has long
been felt by the citizens of St. Panl and vicinity.

Washingtox, Jan. 1.

The foreign niiniJUre and atta •h(>, in full
oour' dressS and afttrwunls the army and
uavy officer^ in uniform, formally pnid their
respects to the Pre.-^ident ut noon. The
outtiide gates were thrown open to t!ie pub-
lic coostqueutly. w^hen the large ma--5< ot iin
patient uuuiau beings rushed in for a sim-
ilar Durpose. There was music in the ves.
tibule of the White House, and all wud gay-
ety. The weather is delightful. Calls wore
made on the heads ol Departments, and
tn»ny citiz.'ns and distinguished sojourners
are a!<o keeping open hoasi\

The members of the Cabinet and the
Judges of the Supreme Court were among
those who, at n:i early hour, had paid their
respttts to the President.

Among the crowd ut the Presidents man-
sion. a':d of marked prominence, wa^ Major
W. F. M. Amy, succe-ssor of Kit Carson,
United States Indian agent in New .>[exico
He wore a full suit of buckskin, made in
Mexican style and elegantly embroidered
with bead?. lie privately presented to
Mrs. Lincoln a spieudid blanket as a Xew
Year offering* It is an evidence of the
taste and skill of th^ Rocky Mountain Indi-
an?. Tiie blanket was made by a squaw of
a Xavjjo chief, she having be->n employed
upon it for five uionth*". It is ol large size,
of wool, the figures upon it being of white,
red and blue.

Mbjor Amy j*i}ys there are abuut 10,000
Navujiei in Xew .M'.xico. who own with
the Mexican; in the territory probably a
raiilioD ofgheep, which arc u.sed principally
f )r food. The animals remain urishora ot
the wool, which would make good blankets
and clothing for our troops.

The city police, in new unifortn.ij, were
presc nt and kepr every thcug in excellent
order.

SECaETARY SKWARD's RECEPTIO.V.

The entire dip! jmatic corps, aftpr leaving

call on the Secretary of State, at his resi-
den^(>, wh^re they and other visitors were
cordially reieived and entertained.

GOVERNOR HA.nSK¥*S ]n£SSAG£.

We lav this important and able docu
ment before our readers thi3 morniDg. It
ia long, but the important events ot the la^t
year, and the irreat rosponsibiliiiei< ot the
future, demarded an extended survey. No
brief docnment could do justice to the his
tory or interest? of the State at thi^ eventliil
•poch.

It has the characteris ic clearness, and
perfect inteligibility of all preceding ni'?s^
segee from Gov. Ramsey.

We have not lime or epace this morning
to tolly review itsstatenic-nf;' and recommeh-
dationp, nor need we do po It will be read
by every one interested in the welfare of the
State. But we cannot refrain from re pro-
ducing briefly in the wurds ot the lnes^age
itself, a few of its statCHienLt and augges-
lions. There arc some pa.-sages and topics,
that we ghall take occaoion to consider
more fully hereafter.

The principles of retrenchment, economy
and honesty infused into our public affairs
daring the last two years by the Republican
Administration, that now succeeds to an-
other term of oflBce, ha/e borne their legiti-
mate froit in a $lili further reduction* of
State expense during the last year, everf as
compared with the wonderful results of the
first year of Gov. Ramsey's oflScial term.

Notwithstanding the unexpected expenses
ooonected with Military affairs, and the
creation of new departmedts, the total ex-
pense lor 1861, to December Ist, were but
t74,758 9"7; against 895,269 98 in 1860.

Id the language of the message :

Two or three thousand dollars will corer the
expenditures charj^eable to the reniaiain^
munih, so that notwithstanding the increased
•cope and etfioiencj of the governmental ma-
chiaery by the creation of the School,' Slate
Land and Statistical Bureaus, a saviog- .ha^
been ettected in the (.ivil list of abnnt $2-i,0<ji)
and the cost of the State GnTerniiient i& -bow
about one-third of what It was in 1S58.

In no direction are the fruiis of the policy of
retrenchment more conspicuoi^s than in the
item of printinj?, which now. amounts to but
one seventh of the sum expended for thui
purpose m 1S3S ; when, iadeed, the printing
Dills largely exceeded tWe whole present cost
of the State Governmeut.

'J'he following passage alludes to a f^et ol
which every MinnesoUan will therfsb'a
proud remmbrance, and 'vindicates most
completely the prudence and wisdom of the
QoTernor, and his fidelity to principles ol
enlightened economy.

When the infamous attack upon Fort Sum-
ter occurred in April, 1861, I was in the city
of Washington, on Dusiuess >onnecied with ih«
State, acd at once culled upon the Secretar\'
of War, in company with two of our fellow
citizens in oUiciul stution, and tendered one
thousand mea to the Governmeut on the part
of Minnesota.

I am proud to know, that this was the first
tender of troops made to the President. I ex
plained to the Secretary that our Legislature
would not meet until January, lS6i. unless
called in special session, and that m the em-
barrassed condition of our finances, it would
facilitate the organization of our contingent, if
he would, ID the meantime, furnish the neces-
sary clothes, arms, equipments, Ai;., which he
at once agreed to. it would perhaps, have
been more gratifying to our pride, if the State
had twen able, lilce its older and wealthier sis-
ters, to have advanced the sum required fur
this purpose. But as it is the unilorm prac
tice of the general Governme"Dt U(. meet all the
expenses ot the troops culled into the service,
•uch tenders of pecuniary aid are merely in
the nature of temporary loans, to be reim-
bursed from the Federal Treasury, Many ot
the States, having full treasuries and abundant
credit, promptly a *ancedthe necessary funds
to place their troops in the field, and have
since been partially, or wholly, repaid. For
the timely aid thus giyen to the depleted
Treasury of the nation, these states deserve
tbe thanks of our countrymen everywhere.

But it would have been folly for h Slate like
ours, with a barren treasury, to have emulated
the example of New York or Pennsylvania.
If the Legislature Lad been convoked in ex-
tra sesaioa for this purpose, the required sum
could only have been raised by the issue of
bonds or treasury warrants, at a great sacriBce,
and, without resulting in any substantial ben
etit to the Government, would have entailed a
large addition to our own embarrassments.

1 hope that, so long as the sncred truth of
caring for the interests of the people is confided
to my haudx. I shall never be guilty of addiag
to their burthens for the mere eclat of an
tmpty display.

upon the subject of Railroads, after

stating the facts connected therewith, the

followiog is suggested as to what should

be done :

As there is no ability on the part of the State
to construct these rosds, and in view of the
fact that the grant will be entirely lost in a few
years unless the work's prosecuted, I can see
DO objection to a substantial re-enactment of
tbe Legislation of last winter in the case of
each road, giving to parties who may be will-
ing to undertake their construction, the op-
portunity for another year to do sn, upon a de-
posit as before of a pecuniary guarautee of
their sincerity.

Id regard to the bravo men contributed
by Minnesota for the crushing of the rebel-
lion, and what Minnesota expects of those
charged with the conduct of the war, Gov-
ernor Ramsey says :

When I made the tender before mentioned,
in April, the Oovernmenl regarded a ttiousand
men as our full contribution of troops for the
National defense, but within the year this
State has responded to the call of the country
by the muster and array of about five times
that number. These five thousand soldiers
have been turned aside from their selfnssiga-
«d and noble mission of founding and develjp-
iag a great State.

Minnesota sends them far beyond her borders
with an emotion deeper than pride. They are
our most precious contribution to a war which
we bold sacred, and removed as we are from
any contingent benefits resulting from its pros-
ecution, wo freely make this sac-ilice, as we
hope to make all others which may be required.
All that the people of Minnesota, or thoir rep-
resentitives, will ask in return, is, that the
awful form of the Conaiitution shall now bo
revealed to vindicate the flag and Union of our
fathers against the parricidal hand of treason
at home, and against any Government on earth
which shall take advantige of this hour of
our extremity to strike a coward blow at our
Natiobal honor and existence. I trust that the
iUipatience of our people will soon be gratihed
by such an exhibition of National power as
will bring this rebellion to a speedy conclusion
and vindicate the dignity of the GoTcrnmeni
before tbe uatioas of the world.

Of the Rebellion and tbe doty of avail- |
log otuMlvae of every means of speedily

ending it " letting tlavery take care
itsell,' we have the tullowiug expressions :"

Even after the attack upon Fort Sunipter,
notwithstanding the great transformation of
the loyal States tVom the habits and pursuits
of peace, to those ot war, the public uiind has
reluctantly yielded to the conviction that an
insurrection so wanton and groundless, could
become a formidable rebellion. It has requir-
ed SIS months to array an army for the vindi-
caliou of the Constitution, and that entire
period iias been esseutial to bring the Ameri
can people to the stern and uncompromising
temper which the crisis demands, llencefoitb,
bU that the laws of war will justify against a
foreign foe, and all that tbe tirst law of nature
warrants for the subjugation of domestic trea-
son, even if necessary to the oxtinctiou of
slavery, the undoubted cause of all our trou-
bles, must be niaae to fall upon the crime and
tbe crluuuals of thi infamous rebelliou.

Of the treatment which our country has

received Irom England, the indignant senti

meuts of our people are littiogly expressed:

On one subject only we have been conscious
of meriting the rebuke of the kindred commu-
nities on both continents, who speak the Eng-
lish tongue. On the subject of slavery, itself
luflictcdupon the Western world by the un-*
scrupulous groa^ of British merehams— we
have admitted tbe full extent of our national
Qiisfortuoe and crime, llad we not reasen to
expect under the circumstances, whea the
Republic was rent and torn by the straggles
of the monster, slavery, that England, claiming
to be the exemplar and friend of Emancipa-
tion, would at le.si have imitated the Levite of
the parable and passed by on the oiber side.
Not so, however. With indecent haste the
rights of a belligerent power were conceded to
an insurrection whose leading idea is slavery,
and whose success would be the bloody restor-
ation of the slave trade over tropical America;
and it needed not the late explosion of Eng-
lish hostilty and prejudice, to convince the
world that no consideration.s^if humanity, and
civilization can luru the scale of Gient Britain's
hatred of republican institutions or her sordid
devotion at the shrine of Mammon.

John Adams, eighty years ago, with the
light of our revolutionary experience to
guide him, made the following sound and
incontrovertible exposition of the financial
principles which render the depreciation of
large issues of paper inevitable. He said,
(works, vol. vii., page 195,) "The amount
of ordinary commerce, external and inter
nal, of a country, may be computed at a fix-
ed sum. A certain sum of money is neces-
sary to circulate among the society in order
to carry on their business. TLi^ precise
sura is discoverable by calculation, and re-
ducible to certainty. Yon emit paper mon
ey or any other currency for this purpose
until you reach this rule, and it will not de
preciate. After you reach this rule it will
depreciate; and no power or act of legisla-
tion hitherto invented can prevent it. In
the rose of paper, if you go on emitting for-
ever, ttie whole ma?3 Jjrill be worth no more
than that which wa;^ 'emitted within tbe
rule."

deriog in the wilderness, returns with the
new year to the management ol its old and
well-known edi'.or, Mr. Moses S Beach,
who will doubtless soon restore it to its for-
mer prosperous luster.

— Mr. Thurlow Weed has been seeing all
tbe-pobs in London : Sir Henry Holland,
Sir John Wilson, Earl Russell, and others.
Among them Lord Lyndhurst, the Nestor ol
English jurisprudence, now midway between
his nineti'cth and hundredth year, with sight
and hearing slightly impaired, but with his
intellectual faculties in all their vigor and
brightne.'^a. He is a native of Boston,
though born before the Revolution, and Mr.
Weed says deplores the possibility ot war,
though quite sure that it was wrong to take
Slidell and Masop Irom under I he British
flag, Mr, Weed had a private conversation
with Earl Russell, but does not disclose its
import. The Conntess Russell was very
polite to him, sliowed him the country house,
entertaiueJ him at luncheon, and introduced
her children to him. The veteran editor
seems to be enjoying liim^lf, and wao " off
to Paris " at la?t accounts.

Mr. Weed's last letter is from Pari.s It
is indicative of his sagacity that he takes
substantially the view of the Trent affair
which the Government has acted upon.
He says :

" We have nothing to hope in the event
of a war, from this side of the Channel !
The 'Morrill Tariff' is believed to be im-
povishing French manufactures and starving
French operatives."

— Paul Morphy, the renfwned chess-
player, was, according to tbe latest advices,
on tbe eve of joining the staff of the rebel
General John^<in. Morphy has been study

Maryland, Delaware, Virginia and North

Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and

Sherman'^ hill put Ohio, Indiana, and

The general verdict is that Lovejoy had
the belter of all his antagonists in the de-
bate to day. The-romacks of the Kentuck-

rather than slavery; and part holding the

Mr. WEBBER, from the *bove com-

HOUSE OF REPRESEN'TATIVES "^
After prayer and rull calPa resoluiian was

The Sergeant turned sharply upon and
.-lapped him, saying he was never in his
place. A few minutes subsequently, as
Brennan was passing by hi** po^t, Lauahan
killed aim. The General Order coutirming
the sentence, remarks that though it is very
reprehensible for officers to strike soldiers,
(except when absolutely necessary to repress
disorder, and never allowable as punishment)
yet, for a soldier, because of being struck,
lo shoot his immediate superior, is at war
with every principle of military subordina-
tion.

The circumstance!' show that the prinoner,
having old scores with the sergeant, loaded
his musket on purpose to shoot bira. The
txecufion took place half a mile from the
avenue, at 1 1 30, in presence of 2.500 regu-
lar soldiers Irom different regiments ol rcg- ,
ular infantry, who formed a hollow square
about the gallows, to which they escorted
the prisoner in a close carriage. He only
said *-Good bye! Old soldiers I Good bye!'

Gen. Rosecrans has received the follow
ing dispatch, dated Wheeling. January 6th,
stating that Geo. .Milroy's expedition to
Huntersville is a perfect success. He rout
ed the rebels, kiilii^g a large number, oap-
tuiing three hundred barrels of flour, 300
ba-rels of beef, large qut\-otitie3 of stores of

bines and sabres. The lorce under General
M'lroy did ml exceed 1.000, infantry and
cavalry.

ADJUTANT GENERAL TBI07IA9.

The fallowing will perhaps account for

Gen. Thonoas' persistent efforts to get rid

of Freiflont. He had not found places for

all of his Georgetown neighbors. It is not

from a Fremont paper, but from that

eminently conservative jeurnal the Spring

field Republican's Wivshington correwond-

ent :

The story is told here of Gen. Thomsis, that
after having got every male pelaiive into tthe
army, in good paying places, be then took a
list ot his neighbors, placing them according
to their distance from his family residence,
and at last accounts half the able bodied men
at Georgetown (where he lives) had gut pay -
masterships in the army.

Death of \ Minnesota Pkisosbr at
Richmond. — Cliarles J. Clark of Company
A, First Minn38ota Regiment , died while
a prisoner at Richmond. The Minneapolis

Snmc of our readers will recollect Mr.
Clark as the gentleman who was, for a
short time, associated with Mr. Crafts in
the daguerreian business in this place. He
fought bravely in the battle of Bull Run,
where he was so severely wounded that
bis comrades put him down in the list of
killed. He was not killed, however, but

FEDERAL PATRONAGE— PRECC-
DENTS AT WASHINGTON.

That the people of Minnesota may not
be utterly at a loss to account for the be
stowal of the Government patronage on the
P/o«efr— a paper so recently treasonable in
its utterances — and that bad so fiercely
fought the Republican party during the last
four years, we give the following from
tbe Washington correspondent of the
Springfield (Mass.) Hepublican — a paper,
by the way, — that the Pioneer recently extoll-
ed. The latter paragrajh, of the article
will suit the Pioneer's case almost e.xact'y :

The journals are again agitating the sob-
jecl of the employment ol semi-trai'.ors in
the departments. Tbe cases, of rebels in
olfice, are still numeious, and some of theto
are exceedingly scandalous. The worst of
it is that whenever a traitor is turned out
of one ot the departments the army is suie
to receive him in some shape or other. One
Virginian, who has numbers of relatives in
rebellion against the governmcDt, was
turned out of a departmental office and Gen.
Thomas instantly got him a fat place in the
army It is stated as an absolute fact that
Gen. Thomas has thirty or forty of his own
relaiivts in oflBce. Another man has suc^
ceeded in gelling nearly sixty of his family
relations into good berths. In one case ao
open Iriend of the rebellion publicly chaU
lunged the headot his department to re-
move him. Said he, "they cannot do with-
out ine and I will hold such opinions as 1
please!" In other cases, men who bave-
viilified the Republicans for the last four
years with their evtty breath, and wbanow
villify tlie prominent leaders of the party
occupy some of the most lucrative places in
W asbingto!)

The PottPr committee isstirriqg up ihese
fact:' and will one of these days report thvm
to Congress and the country.

Some honorable members of Congress
have committed egregious blunders' in thi-t
respect. One Republican Senator recently
app inted to a fat offije a gentleman who
two months ago openly and furiously charg
ed on Pponsylvania avenue that assistant
naval secretary Fox was "a d — d abolition
ist," and for his part he "wished that every
d — d abolitionist in the land had hisd— d
throat cut." A tortuigbt after this polite
ulteranoe the gentleman became an appli-
cant for an office within th^gift of Republi-
caos, and though he is known to be pro-
slavrry by education and habits, and was
la*t Spring and winter on the best of terms
wiih the southern traitors, he got the place,
to the exclusion of numbers of honest and
true hearted republican competitors.

The Inauodration. — The reinstulnier.t
ot our W'!l trifd and faithful State <^ffifers
for a 1H.W term of two years, and the anxiety
to hear Governor Ramsey's meissage, yes-
terday calleil together io and about "the
Capit"! a greater concourse ot people than
ever before attended upon a similar occasion.

The programme ol the Joint Committee
of AiTungemenls, i»s published yt-slerday.
i was faithfully carred out. Col. Sanborn,
\ with his five sphendid Compaules of the
Fourth Regiment now salioned at Fort
Sn< lling. arrived before the hour appointed
f"r them to enter u|»iui the liischarge *if es-
cort duty. The battaliorf* marched down
on the ice fr!>m tlrtr^ort, and entered the
city — though the morniuL' was cold anJj.the
rairch of six miles-through the snow some-
whitt tiresome — in style and bearing becom-
ing well trained soldiers.

Between eleven and twelve o'clock, the
procesion of escort wa^^ formed in front of
the Winslow House, and advauctd to tbe
Capitol — the military marching in front in
column, preceded by the EiPgi^lalive Com-
mittee of. Arrangements The throng at the
Oapiiol was 80 great that when the proces-
sion arrived, it required much effort for the
menibop, the military officers and those
'whonrfiiey escorted to gaiu admittance to
the Hall.

However, things were properly adjusted
after some delay, and the ceremonies pro-
ceeded. After all the .t fficcrs were sworn
io— with the exception of Treasurer Scheffer,
who is absent on business of the State— the
govtrnor proceeded in a clear and forcible
irfiner to read his JjJe9sag-\ The literary
merits and politifjuJ^Jojlriaes of this admi-
rable document is properly referred to else-
where. At many p)ints of its delivery, the
audience signiBed their approval of its sen-
timents in the most marked and decided
manner.

The number of ladies present was so great
as to fi! the hall of the House inside the
bar almost to t'ue exclusion of all others.

Alter the ceremonies were over, the sol-
diers marched to the Wioslow House, whi re
a collation was served for them in Mr
r.ong'fl best style. Th? deportment and
bearing of the officers and men, and their
admirable marching find drill, considering
the short time they have been in service, call-
ed forth tbe praise of every one who witnessed

Mr. Colfax in explaration said that a

passed the Senate, but had never before re-
ceived favorable action ay the Post Office
Committee ol the House It was now re-
porledj UiianiiBous with one exception. In
Kngland, even the Qaeea has to pay Ler
own postage, and no man has there suggest-
ed tbit the fraukinj; pri .'ilege be restored
ff it should be abolished in this country, it
will never be restored and tbe people
would wonder that it bad existed so long.

Ml. Duell produced a tabular elateraent

Under the law as il now stands, at Kasl 20,
OOO per^Otis, including l't)st masters whose
.saluries do not exceed j>200, receive and
transmit letters, &w'., packages free of post-
age in no wa*y relative to public business.

He opposed i ie bill I'or the reason that
while it abol;3bts 'ranking in one part il
restored it in another, wiiile his subitiluted
atgleast (quality, and justice as it placed all
on un equality.

Mr. Valiandigham saiJ this was the day
of small relonns, and as the d-iy and as the
measure now pending was ominenlly one of
ibe very tmallesi, il woi Id doublless mc-et

was a political and dipioioatic triumph of
the highest value, for which we are deeply
indebied to the daring and palnotc act
of Capt. Wilkes and the enlightened btales-
manship of Mr. Seward.

After Mr. Sumner had finished, Mr.
Hale moved to take up the bill providing
for twenty mail clad gunboats. The qucs-
tioii being on tbe amendment to ausiitute
the Piesidenl for the Secretary of the Navy.
Mr. Hale spuki: io Uvor ot the am ndiueut
and asked tnc Setiators if they approved
the course of the Secretary of UieNavy.
Ihe Seci-etary of the Navy is no doubt
an honest man, but he had made
a mistake. He said he (Hal.)
always seemed unfortunate in an
attempt of this kind. If he atUcked a
small man then it was too small a busine,^ ;
and then il he went up to the head of a
Department he was too high and must not
paruUze the public confidence. Wc are
spending a million and a half a day, not to
put down tbe rebellion but to keep just
about where we are.

Mr. Dixon thought il strange if we cast f
censure on a man agairst whom there i-t no
charge and who was an honest man. He
could show instead of the money being lost,
this proceeding hud saved the Government
a great amount ol money. He thought it
was not a proper mode to reprimand an
(.fficer who was admitted to be honest and
pure in his intentions and it was gross ii jus-
tice to the Secretary of the X.«vy.

Mr. Sherman spoke in favor of the
amendment. H: said the facts could not
be denied that Mr. Morgan, the broiher io
law ol the Secretary ol itje Navy, had re-
ceived nearly SlOO 000, and such action
could not be dcftiiUed.

Mr. Djoiinltt said he would go for mak-
ing war on the thieves of the Treasury, bat
h^r was not prepared, on e.K parte evidence,
to vole censure on the S crttary of tbe
Navy. We bad more things to contend
wiih than secession, and one was the eters
nal cruaking and complaint on the pari of
pretend- d liieoda of the Govcrumenl, some-
times ffithuui reason.

Mr. Wilkinson said it was a qnestion
whether the Secrvl.iry of the Navy was to

ing tlie Trent and taking from her the rebel
fiinbasiador.s, though in making the seizure
•he gallant (Japtain was actuated by the
purest motives and acted in strict accord-
ance with liiilish preced.Mius. a;.d with in-
ternational law as expounded by the Ijighest
Bii i>h aulhoiities. Mr Sumner contended
(hat the uniform poiiy of the United
State, as well as 'he St ites of Conlinei.tal
Kurope, has been opp^iPid to the preten-
sions ol the Bi iti^h Government, and has
maintained a liberal inierprotation of the

of the Uepubiic to the piescnt time, the

itself luliy Olid unre.-erveJly 10 the right of

arguments against bucl ucls as that ol
Cupt. Wilkes.

Mr. Sumner proceeded to show that we

OOi'ER.^OK UA.tlSKY'S .ni^^SAGf:.

Wh lay this important anil uhl,' d.x-u
ment betore our readers ih:3 nioriiioj; It
is ioug, but the important events ot the la.-t
year. anJ the ^reiu responsibilities ol the
future, ilemandeil an extended survey. No
brief docam-Dt could do justice to the his
tory or inteie.st.*nf the State at th.ij evontldl
epoch.

It has tbe obnracteris ie clearness, and
perfect intel'gibility of all precedin}» ni>^^
segee from Gov. Ramsey.

We have not time or space thih raorninEr
to laliy review itsstatemct.ii' and iveomaieh-.
datioQB, nor need we do ?o It will be read
by every cue intertsted in the welfare of the
State. But we cannot refrain from re pro-
ducing briifly in the srurd.s ot the uK^Nage
itaeif, a few of its statement-* and sugges-
tlocs. There arc some pa-sages and topics,
that we Eball take oceasino to consider
more fully hereafter.

The principles of reirenchinent, ecoijonav'
*nd honesty iutused into our public aUairs
daring tbe last two years by the itepublicau
Adtnioistratiou, that now succeeds to an-
other term of office, ha.e borne their legiti-
mate Iruit in a nill further redaction* o!
State expense during the last year, everf as
compared with the wonderful results of the
first year of Gov. Rara3ey'3 oQicia! term.

Notwithstanding th( unexpected expenses
oonnected with Military afifairs, and the
creation of new departmedt?, the total ex-
pense ior 1S61, to Dicembfr l-«t. were but
$7-i,758 97 ; against 895,269 98 in I860.

In tbe language of the message :

Two or three thousand dollars will cov.er ih-_*
expenditures chargeable to the reuiaiaing
munih, so that notwithstaodiog the increased
•cope and efficiency of the governincaial ma
chiuery by the creation of the School, Suite
Land and Statistical liureau.s, a saviog- .has
been etlected ia the i-ivil list of abont $2-2, OuO
aad the cost of ihe State Governtnent iS iiow
about one-ttiird of what it was in 1S38.

In no direction are the fruiia of ilie policy of
reirenchinent more conspicuoi;s than in the
item of printing, which now. amounts to but
one seventh of the sum expended for tliai

Eurpose It! 1S5S ; when, indeed, the printing
ills largely exceeded tiie whole present cost
of the State Government.

The following passage alludes to a fa,ei ot
which every Minnesqtian will fcherfsh'a
proud remmbrance, and 'vindicates most
cotiipletely the prudence and wisdom of the
Goveruor, and his Eilelity to principles ol
enlightened economy.

When the infamous attack upon Fort Sum-
ter occurred in .\pril, IsiJl, I was in the city
of Washington, on business >onnected with th«
State, aud at once called upon the Secretar>'
of War, in company with two of our fellow
citizens in othcial station, and tendered one
thousand men to the Governmeut on the part
of Minnesota.

I am proud to know, that this was the tirst
tender of troops made lo the President. I ex
plained to the Secretary that our Legislature
would not meet until January, ISoi, unless
called in special session, and that in the em-
barrassed condition of our finances, it would
fdCiliiate tbe organization of our contingent, it
he would, lu the meantime, furnish the nece,--
sary clothes, arms, eauipments, Ac., which he
at once agreed to. It would perhaps, have
been more gratifying to our pride, if the Stale
had been able, like its older and wealthier sis-
ters, to have advanced the sum required fur
this purpose. But as it is the uniform prac
tice of the general Governme'ut to. meet all the
expenses ot the troops called into the service,
•uch tenders of pecuniary aid are merely in
the natare of temporary loans, to be reim-
bursed from the Federal Treasury, Many of
the Slates, having full treasuries and abundant
credit, promptly a sauced the necessary funds
to place their troops in the held, and have
since been partially, or wholly, repaid. For
the timely aid thus giyen to the depleted
Treasury of the nation, these .stales deserve
toe thanks of our countrymen everywhere.

But it would have been fully for a State like
OTirs, with a barren treasury, to hr\ve emulated
the example of New York or Pennsylvania,
if tbe Legislature had been convoked in cx>
tra session for tliis purpose, the required sum

couM only have been raised by the issue of
bonds or treasury warrants, at a great sacrihce,
and, without resulting in any substantial ben
etit to the Government, would have entailed a
large addition to our own embarrassments.

1 hope that, so long as the sacred truth of
caring for the interests uf the people is conrtded
to my hand.-i, I shall never be guilty of adding
to their burthens for the mere tclat of an
•mpty display.

Upon the subject of Raiiroadi, after

stating the facts connected therewith, the

following is suggested as to what should

be done :

As there is no ability on the part of the State
to c<>nstruct these roads, and in view of the
fact that the grant will be entirely lost in a few
years unless the work 's prosecuted, I can see
no objection to a substantial re-enactment of
the Legislation of last winter in the case of
each road, giving to parties who may be will-
Ing to undertake their construction, the op-
portunity for another year to do sf), upon a de-
posit as before of a pecuniary guarantee of
their sincerity.

in regard to the brave men contribated
by Minnesota for the crushing of the rebel-
lion, and what Minnesota expects of those
charged with the conduct of the war. Gov-
ernor Ramsey says :

When I made the tender before mentioof d,
ID April, the Government regarded a thousand
men as our full contribution of troops for the
National defense, but within the year this
State has responded to the call of the country
by the muster and array of about five times
that number. These hve thousand soldiers
have been turned aside from their self assiga-
«d and noble mission of founding and develjp-
ing a great State.

Minnesota sends them far beyond her borders
with an emotion deeper than pride. They are
our most precious contribution to a war which
we hold sacred, and removed as we are frona
•uy contingent beneUts resulting from its pros-
ecution, we freely make this sacihce, as we
hope to make all others which may be required.
All that the people of Minnesota", or their rep-
rMentitives, will usk in return, is. that the
awful form of the Conaiitution shall now be
revealed to vindicate the tlag and Union of our
fathers against tbe parricidal hand of treason
at hr>me. and against any Government on earth
which shall take advant>ige of this tiour of
our extremity to strike a coward blow at our
Natioual honor and existence, i trust thatthe
iHipatience of our people will soon be gratihed
by •uch an exhibitioa of National power as
will bring this rebellion to a speedy conclusion
■nd vindicate the dignity of the "Government
b«fore tbe nations of the world.

Of the Rebellion and tbe doty of avail-
ing otirs«lves of every mcana of speedily

I the loyal States iVum the habits and pursuits
' of peace, to those ot war, the public mind lias
reluctantly yielded to the couvietioii that an
I insurrection so wanton and groundless, could
' become a toriiiidable rebellion. It has requir-
I cd SIX uiunths to array au army tor the vindi-
cation of the Constitution, and that entire
I period has been essential to bring the Aineii
can people to the stern and uncompromising
temper which the crisis demands, llencefoith,
I bII that the la\v-< of war will ju.stity against a
I fo: eign foe, aud all that the first taw of nature
warrants for the .sul)jugatiou oi" domestic trea-
I son, even if necessary to the extinction of
slavery, the undoubted cause of all our trou*
I bles, must be iiiaue to fall upon the crime aud
the criminals of thi infamous rebellion

Of the treatiueut which our country has

received (rom England, the indignant sonti

inmfj of our people are littiugly e.xpressed:

On one subject only we have been couscious
of meriting the rebuke of the kindred commu-
nities on both coutiuents, who speak the Eng-
lish tongue. On the subject of slavery, itself
ludictedupon the Western world by the un>.
scrupulous gruiid of British uiercliants— we
have admitted the full extent of our national
ijiisfortune and crime. IIuJ we not reasen to
expect under tho circumstances, when the
Republic was rent and torn by me struggles
of the monster, slavery, that England, claiming
to be the exemplar and friend of Emancipa-
tion, would at le.si have iniiiated the Levite of
the parable and passed by on the other side.
Not so, however. With indecent haste the
rights o' a belligerent power were conceded to
au insunection whose leading idea is slavery,
and whose success would he the blocdv restor-
ation of the slave trade over tropical America;
and it needed not the Ute explosion of Eng-
lish hostilty aud prejudice, to convince the i
world that uo consideraiions.(,f humanity, and
civilization can turn the scale.>fGre:il Britain's

THE 1<.4WS OF CLltUENCY.

John Adams, eighty years ago, with the
light of our revolutionary experience to
guide him, made the fullowing sound and
iucoutrovertible exposition of the financial
principles which render the depreciation of
large issues of paper inevitable. He said,
(work^, vol. vii., page 19.5,) "The amount
of ordinary commerce, external and inter
nal, of a country, may be computed at a fix-
ed sum. A certain sum of money is neces-
sary to circulate among the society in order
to carry on their bu.sines3. 'X\.\\* precise
sum is discoverable by calculation, and re-
ducible to certainty. You emit paper mon
ey or any other currency for this purpose
until you reacii this rule, and it will not de
preciate. After you reach this rule ii will
depreciate; and no power or act of legisla-
tion hitherto invented can prevent it. in
the cxse of pap.T, if you go on emitting for-
ever, tfie whole ma?3 .Vill be worth no more
than that which was emitted within the
rule."

ADJUTANT GENEKAL THOU AS.

The fallowing will perhaps account for
Gen. Thomas' persistent efforts to get rid
of Fremont. He hid not found places for
all of his Georgetown neighbors. It is not
from a Fremont paper, but from that

ent :

The story is told here of Gen. Thomijs, that
afier having got every male relative into the
army, in good paying places, he then took a
list ot his neighbors, placing them according
to their distance from his family residence,
and at last accounts half the able bodied men
at Georgetown (where he lives) had got pay -
masterships iu the army.

Sherman's bill put Ohio, Indiana, and

The gent-ral verdict is that Lovejoy had

FEDERAL P.ITRON.IGE— PRECE-
DENTS AT WASHINGTON.

That the people of Minnesota may not
be utterly at a loss to account for the be
stowal of tbe Government patronage on the
P'Cttter— apaper so recently treasonable in
iLs utterances — and that had so fiercely
fought the Republican party during the last
four y-'ars, we give the following from
the Wasbirgtou correspondent uf the
Springfield (Mass.) Republican — a paper,
by the way, — thatthe Pio»efr recently extoll-
ed The latter paragraph, of tbe article
will suit the Pioneer's case almost exatt'y :

The journals are again agitating the snb-
ject of the employment of semi-trai'ors in
the drpartments. The cases, of rebels in
office, are still numeious, and some of thcta
are exceedingly scandalous. The worst of
it is that whenever a traitor is turned out
of one ot the departments the army is suie
to receive him in some shape ur other. One
Virginian, who has numbers of relatives io
rebellion against the government, was
turned out of a departmental office and Gen.
Thomas instantly got him a fat place in the
army li i-j stated as an absolute fact that
Gen. Thomas has thirty or forty of his own ^
relatives in office. Another man has suc-
ceeded in gellinij nearly sixty of his family
relations into good berths, lu one case ao
open Iriend of the rebellion publicly chal-
lamred tiie headot his department to re-
move him. Said he, "they cannot do wilii-
out ine and I will hold such opinions as I
pl^a.-e!" In other cases, men who have^
viili6ed the Republicans for the last four
years with their every breath, and who now
villil'y tlie prominent leaders of the party
occupy sorpe of the most lucrative places in
\\ atiiingto!)

Th:- Potter eoratnittee is stirring up ihese
facts and will one of these days report thum
to Congress and the country.

Some honorable members of Congress
have committed egregious blunder.''' in thi<
respr-et. One Republican Senator recently
app inted to a fat offijc a gentleman who
two months ago opt-nly and furiously charg
ed i;n Pennsylvania avenue that assistant
navai secretary Fox was "a d— d abolition
ist," and for his part he "wihbed that every
d — (1 abolitionist in the land had his d — d
throat cut." A torluigbt after this polite
utterance tbe gentleman became an appli
cant for an office within the gift of Republi-
ca.is, and though he is known to be pro-
elavi ry by educali'm and habits, and was
la*t Spring and winter on the best ot terms
with the Hi)[i\hbTn tTiiitnrs, /le got the place,
to the exclusion of rjumhtrs of honest and
true hearted republican competitors.

rnembiap, tbe military officers and those
Svhonrxiiey escorted to gaiu admittance to
the Hali.

However, things were properly adjusted
after some delay, and the ceremonies pro-
ceeded. After all the. tffiei.rs were sworn
in — with the exception of Treasurer ScheffL-r,
who is absent on busines.s of the Stale— tiie

ralfriner to read his Messag-?. The literary

rable document is properly referred lo else-
where. At many p lints of its delivery, the
audience signified their approval of its sen-
timents in the most marked and decided
manner.

The number of ladies present was so great
as to fi I the hall of the IIiiu?e inside the
bar almost to the exclusion of all others.

After the ceremonies were over, the .-ol-
diers marched to the Winslow H >us?, wh< re
a collation was served for them in Mr
r,ong'« best style. Th? deportment and
bearing of the officers and men, and tlieir
admirable marching ^nd drill, considering
tbe short time they have been in service, call-
ed forth the praise of every one who witnesstd

Mr. Hale apukx: in iavor ul llic atu ndiuent
and abked lac Senators if they approved
tbe course of the Secretary of UieNavy.
The Seci-etary of the Navy is no doubt
an honest man, but he had made
a mi-tike. IJe said be (II.il )
always secmea unfortunate it" an
attempt of this kind. If be ui tucked a
small man then it was too small a business ;
and then if he went up to the head of a
Department he was too high and mu«t not
parahze the public confiiJei)'.-e. Wp are
spending a million and a half a day, not lo
put down the rebellion but to keep just
I about whci: we are.

Mr. Dixon thought it strange if we cast
censure on a man agairst whom there i-i no
charge and who was an hon<^st man. He
could show instead of th^ moni-y being lost,
this proct-eJiug hud saved the Government
a great utnount ot money. lie thought it
was not a proper mode to reprimand an
( fficer who wa? admitted to be tione*.i and
pure in his intentions aud it was gross ii jas-
lice to the Secrttaiy of ihe "S.^vy.

Mr. Sherman spoke in favor of the
dmendmciit. II: .said the facts could not

Mr. Djolitila said he would go for mak-

he was not jircpared, on e.s: p.ir!e evidence,

The Governor's Message

TO TUK

WI?<NKSOTA L,E«iISI.ATrRE.

Qti.tUmen of the ^note and House of Hep-
reaenLil ires :

The representatives of one of the youujr-
Mt Slates of the American Union, yuu are
a-5o*'nil>led, iit the mot^t eventful, and {ler-
haps most eriticul jx^riod of American his-
tory, to take your shai'e, not without its
i-nportanoe or iutluence, in the grave re-
B^onsibilitie? which the National peril im-
poses on the authorities of evei-y State.

Since I hist hatl the honor to address you
from this plax^-e. secession, then regarded as
ua impotent threat of a few disappointed
politicians, too causeless in its motives and
too monstrous in its aims, for serious [wr-
sistence, has develojied into the most gi-
gantic rebellion of modern times. Eleven
States have renounced the authority of the
Fetleral Constitution : and more than half
& million of our fellow citizens, then fol-
lowing the peaceful pursuits of life, are
no^ arrnyed in arms against the nearly
equal hosts of the rel>elliou. War rages,
by land and sea, ahmg three thousand miles
of American territory, and we stand upon
the brink of events that may decide the
fate of the Republic and of the human race
on this and e\ ery other continent.

All purely local objects of legislation
sink into insignificance beneath the shadow
of this stupendous national calamity. The
f>eril which menaces the fabric of the Fed-
eral Government iuvi.tlves the institutions
and the destiny of every State.

The Constitution, under which the young-
est aud poorest is the peer of the uldasl
and wealthiest member of the Confederacy,
imposes equal obligations upon all. While
oar brave regimenta rank among the fore-
most of the countn's defenders in the field,
it should be the care of those entrusted
with the direction uf affairs at home to cur-
tall every unnecessary expendituiv ; to im-
prove every resource and husband every
element of strength which will enabh- us to
give the most effectual support our limited
means will permit to the national cause.

While this unprecedented condition pf
oSairs will invest your deliberations with
unusual importance, the law, as well as the
necessities, of a tax burthened community,
necessarily place u limit to your .session,
and will suggest to yon the expediency of
proceeding immediately to the considera-
tion of the gi-ave cjuestions arrowing out of
the present emergency. I shall be most
happy to co-operate with you in a speedy
disposition of the business <>f the session,
and feel assured that 1 may rely upon your
b€st counsels in the ilischarge of the im-
portant aud often delicate duties which de-
volve upon the Executive in these pecu-
harly difficult times.

KROSPRKOCS COVntTION" OF THE STATE.

AVe have cause to felicitate ourselves
that, in spite of the still visible effe.ts of
the financial prostration of 1857, and the
eoormous pressure of the war upon the re-
sources of the nation, the Stale of Minne-
sota has continueil her onward progi-ess in
Dopulatiou, wealth, agricultni-e. and in near-
ly every de|)artment of industry and social
improvement. It is scarcely less indicative
of the elastic energy of our people, than it
is honorable to their loialty, that, having
made the first tender of armed aid to the
General (roverniueut, upon the fall of
Sampler, in April last, our Slate w;ls among
the first which furnisheil their full (juota of
the half a million men called by the Gen-
eral Government to the national defence.

Not\vith^tanding the force we have sent
beyond our borders, in military array, our
population, by the best data, has increased
from 1T'2,00<) in June 1st. l^OO, to over
2i'0,u0u soul.^. Our farmers in thnn? years
have nearly doubled the dominion of the
plough and the reaper. In place of im-
porting a part of our own food, our ex-
ports of grain have swollen, in the same
short period, to three or four millions bush-
els, in the mean time the expenses of the
State Government have been reduced more
than one-half : the State tax has been les-
sened twenty per cent, while the taxable
property has largely increased ; the county
and town.ahip organizations have been
placed upon a far more economical andefB-
cieut basis ; the interests of public instruc-
tion have been organized and stimulated by
an effective supervision : the public credit
has been maintained ; the people have been
educated by the stem discipline of necessity
to habits of economy and industry ; our
State has become, or is rapidly becomine
known abroad as the synonm of health
and plenty, aud the foundations are being
securely laid in our civil and social
economy for a cai-eer of solid and enduring
prosperity when trade and business .shall
aave resumed their ordinary channels.

THE flBLIC I>OCUME.VTS.

The annual report of the Auditor, Treas-
urer, Superintendent of Schools, Secretary
of State, Attorney General, Adjutant (ien-
eral. Commissioner of Statistics, Librarian,
Warden and Inspectors of the State Prison.
Regents of the State University aud Regis-
ter of the SUite Land Board, are herewith
transmitted. Xext, to the simplicity, scope
and thoroughness of the departmental or-
ganization, no feature engrailed by recent
fegidlation upon our State Government is
more important, in its practical bearings,
than the complete and systematic exposi-
tion of its affairs, which is afforded, from
year to year, in this series of ofiBcial re-
ports, con.>ilituting a compact body of pub-
lic documents readily accessible to the
whole people. These reports which will
be laid before you, according to law in a
printed form, not only contain a valuable
mass of descriptive and progressive statis-
tica of great popular utility, as a record of
oar financial, civil and social history ; but
are replete with information indispensable
to the Legislature for the intelligent dis-
charge of its duties. They will furnish,
too, abundant evidence of the industry and
fidelity with which the officers from whom
they emanate have discharged their duties.

FINANCIAL CONDITION.

The report of the Treasurer gives an en-
couraging view of the finances of the State.
This report, it will be seen, covers a period
of but eleven months, from January 1 to
December 1. owing to a change made in
the fiscal year by the last Legislature.

The receipts from all sources for the year
1861 were u follows :

levied, are less in the actual amount real-
ized.

MII.rTARV EXl'EXSES.

To avoitl the expense of an extra
session of the Legislatui-e, which did not
seem to be imperatively called for, by the
nature of the exigency, in order to meet the
expenditures made necessary for militaxy
purjioses, I requested the Trea-<urer to ad-
vance the sum requiretl from his private
fuutls, which he generously aud patriotical-
ly consented to do.

' The expenditures thus made are as fol-
lows :

If the current tiixes alone weiv promptly
paid, a ratf of time mills would be ample
to uie»'t all the cuiivnt demands upon the
treasurv. Were it possible in the next
year to'eo'iltHt the cum ut and delinquent
tuxes, it would be in the power of the State,
uot only to meet the year's expenses, but to
ilischarge all its funded ;Uid ttoating debt^:
and a tax of two mills would then be mon.'
than suflicieut, on the pres<Mil pioperty basis,

just emerging from a .s»»vere ami protnicled
financial depression, eauuol be expected to
do this at once.

THE rul.ItV OK EfO.Nt)MV E.Xn.AlXED.

li is clearly our policv then to persevere
in an economical administration of our
finances, cutting off e\ ery useless expendi-
ture when exposed, and only entering on
such new eutei-pri.ses as are indispensable,
and iu a short lime with the rapid increase
of population and wealth, and the conse-
quent expansion of the basis of taxation,
we shall float into the condition of a State
free from all debt, and the burthens of the
people will be so rwluced as to be scarcely
perceptible.

The extraordinary taxes which the war
compels the Federal Government to irapo
upon us, furnish another and cogent ivason'

In addition to this the Tn-'asurer has ad-
vanced ST60 to cover a deficiency in the
appropriation for interest on the eight per
cent bonds, making in all a sum due that
officer of $3,939 61. It is earnestly n>-
commended that he be promptly reimbursed
by an appropriation to this amount which
charged against the Treasmrj-, will leave a
ijalance on hand of S789 81.

In addition to the amount already paid by
the Treasurer on account of military ex-
penses, there ai-o further accounts on the
same behalf still pending, amounting to
some four or five thousand dollars, making
the whole war expenditure about S8,000,
the greater part of which may be paid by
the General Government, but otherwise it
con.stitutes an equitable claim against the
State, for which it is recommended that an
aj^propriation be made.

C.KATIFYINO RETRENCHMENTS.

The reduced expenditures of the State
Government afford a gi-atifyiug proof of the
wi.sdom of the ameliorations aud rofomis
instituted by your predecessors.

The ordinary- expenses of the State Gov-
ernment for 1861, in which I do not include
the interest on the funded debt or the amount
absorbed in the redemption of the old float-
ing debt, compare with the like expenses of
18G0 as follows:

Two or three thou.sand dollars will cover

inir month, so that notwithstanding the in-
ciTntsed scope and efficiency of the govern
mental machinery by the creation of the
School, State Land and Statistical Bureaus,
a .saving has been effected iu the civil li.st
of about $22,000, and the the cost of the
State Government is now about one-third
of what it was in 185S.

REFORM IN STATE PRINTING.

In no direction are the fruits of the poli-
< y of retrenchment more conspicuous than
in the item of printing, which now amounts
to but one-seventh of the sum expended for
that purpose in 1858 ; when, indeed, the
printing l)ills largely exceeded the whole
present co.st of the State Government. At
the .same time the quality of the work has
improved, and the amount of u.seful publi-
cations greatly increased. It is to be hoped
that the system by which these important
re.-iiits have been achieved will not be
lightly abandoned for new devices.

EXPENDITURES OK 1801.

The aggi-egate demands upon the Treas-

uiy were as follows, in the eleven months

Al l>ITf»K's REPORT AND E.STLMATES FOR 1861^

The law requires the report* of the State
officers to be deposited in the Execotive office
on or before the fifth of Pecember. The
State Auditor has been greatly embarrassed
in meeting this enactment, from the neglect
of the L«-gislature to require the County
Auditors to make their returns before the
date fixed for his report. This oversight
will, of course, receive your attention. The
very interesting report of the Auditor ex-
hibits a steady increase in the wealth of
the SUite, even in these depressing times.
The appraisement of real estate being made
biennially, remains as equalized in 1860.
But the addition of new taxable areas, new
structures, and the increase in personal
property, raises the whole assessed valua-
tion of 1861, to 839,000.000. In 1860 it
was §36,000,000, showing a verj* gratifying
expansion of the basis of taxation. At
the present rale of ta.xation of four mills
on the dollar, it will yield a revenue of
8156,000 for the year 1*862.

The very prudent requirement that one
and a half mills of the State tax should be
paid in gold and silver, will enable the
tre'asury to provide more rapidly than here-
tofore for the interest upon the eight per
cent bonds payable in New York.

The estimate of the Auditor for the or-
dinary civil e.xpen3es of 1862, are as fol-
lows:

Department,

Executive
Judicial
Legislative "

Printing.

State Prison,

Bureau of Public Lands, -

now due, amounts to - - - -

20,500
- $93,800

156,000

286,000

Total, $392,000

From the nature of things in a sparsely
settled country like ours, the delinquent tax
will continue for some years to be dispro-
portionately large ; but with the steady in-
crease of the settlement and wealth of the
State, it will eventually cease to present
these aoaoally recurring disproportions-

fur a frugal management of our affairs, antl
though it is hoped this lax will not be re-
peated after the present year, it is the part
of prudence and patriotism to be prepared
for any sacrifice, which o\ir country may
require at our hands.

URIOHT PROSPElTTS FOR inXNESOTA.

When this war shall have terminated, as
it apparently soon will, in the triumph of
the cau.se of the Constitution and the laws,
judging by the past experience of the couu-
try, we may justly anticipate a revival of
the business aud industry of the West be-
yond any precedent iu our frontier history.

Tens of thousands of our countrymen,
afier having been drawn from the quiet
and monotonous Ufe of our east*:'ru towns,
to shai-e in the adventurous tui-moil-,4>f the
battle-field, will prefer the excitement and
prortj)erous activity of a new career in the
West, to a return to their old homes. This
has been the case iu all .similar epochs in
our military history. The termination ol
the old French war, the war of the Revolu-
tion, that of 1812, and more recently the
war with Mexico, have been the great eras
of westward emigration.

Then, too, the business" energies, whi^h'
have been cramped bj»the consequences ol
past misfortunes, will brfBHi forward, with
a new impulse, on the tide of west ward emi-
gration ; and Minnesota, and the immense
tributary region on her northwestern border,
oj)en the only field now left on the Ameri-
can continent, for the westward extension
of settlement, and the continued play of the
prodigious energies which have built up
the great States of the Mississippi Valley.
This is the only " new country '" available
for agriculture which remains to the Ameri-
can emigrant West of us beyond the
turbid Missouri, the l»oundless Buffalo
plains stretch in sterile nakedness to the
mountain border of the Pacific, and south-
ward to the Mexican boundary. The cease-
less drouth which consumes the sources of
vegetable life, in this interior desert, and
wliich often visits its eastern borders in
Kansas aud Nebraska, cairyiug starvation
and death in its train, inexorably forbid it
as the home of th& farmer.

But in our luxuriant and well-watered
domain, extending for hundreds of miles to
the northwest, millions of homes, stocked
beforehand, with every requisite of health
and prosperity, are yet to be had for the
taking. Under the.se circumstances, we
have reason to anticipate a most prosper-
ous future iu store for us. Aud 1 beg ol
you. gentlemen, to believe that it is for the
purpose of making this beautiful State ol
ours more inviting to tlie emigrant when
that day comes, and which I have never
doubted would come, that I am especially
solicitous to- have our household in order.

It was not the mere consideration that
8100,000 annually might be saved to our
impoverished jjeople in the administration
of the Government with advantage to iU
efiiciency, it was not to satisfy the honest
citizen that a wasteful annual expenditure
of nearly 890,000 for printing might be
beneficially reduced to one-eighth that sum,
inimediately important as thot^e objects are,
that I have so long persisted in urging an
economical policy : but, after having af-
forded the needed relief to an overburdened
people, it was to hold out to the great army
of emigrants whom the inevitable course oi
events must soon tm-n toward the virgin lands
of the Northwest, the assurance that here, iu
Minnesota, their industry was not to be
hampered, n<fv their aspiration thwarted by
oppre,ssive taxes for the support of official
extravagance ; it was to make our noble
Stjite esteemed throughout the world as in-
viting in its municipal, as it is iu its physi-
cal aspects, and as desirable in the present,
as it is promising in the future.

THE FEDERAL WAR T.VX.

Our position as a member of the con-
federacy imposes upon us an important,
but to us a new and imexpected duty.
The war in which the rebels of tha^outh
have causelessly involved the countr^.-has
compelled the Federal Government to exer-
cise her constitutional privilege of levying
a war tax, a part of which devoh'es on us.

The Congress of the United States, in
extra session, passed an act. approved Au-
gust 5, 1861, providing '•that a direct tax
of twenty millions o*' dollars be and is
hereby annually laid on the people of the
United States." By this act the sum of one
hundred and eight thousand five hundred
and twenty-five dollars is apportioned to
Minnesota The leading provisions of the
act of Congress are as follows :

" Sec. y. On or after the second Tues-
" day of Februar}', 1862, the President shall
" appoint assessors and collectors with the
" consent of the Senate in each district, and
" may divide the United States into districts,
" and may erect each State into one dis-
'trict * * *

"Sec. 11. Each assessor sht^h^jide his
'• district into a convenient numb3B|^ssess-
" ment district*!, and appoint assistant as-
" seasors in each.

"Sec. 12. On the 1st day of March,
" J 862, the assessors shall cause the assistant
•• assessors to assess all lands and iraprove-
" ments iu conformity to such regulations
" as the SecretaiT of the Treasury may esta-
''blish, and shall make such aasessments
" with reference to the assessment rolls of
" the State, and to any other records and
" documents.

"Sec. 13. Lands and improvements to
" be valued at the rate they are worth in
" money on April 1st 1862. United States
" and States properly exempt from taxation,
"also property exempted by State laws,
" and property of individuals residing on
" such lands, not exceeding $o00. In mak-
" ing such valuation, regard shall be had to
" any State valuation made nearest to said
" first day of April * *

■'Sec. 1.5. If the owner is not prepared
•'to exhibit a written list, the assessor shall
" make one, which on being read and con-
" sented to by the owner, shall be taken as
*' his li.st * *

" Sec. 21. The lists shall be returned to
" the assessor within sixty days after the
" time fixed by this act [April let] * *

way, or by neglecting to do so, leave it to
the operation of the Federal collection
laws.*

The latter alternative is liable to serious
objection, as it would introduce a new ma-
chinery of assessment, new standards of
valuation, employing a large class of fede-
ral ag-ents unfamiliar to our people; while
the peremptory modes of collection neces-
sarily enforced under the Federal laws might
introduce elements of irritation, distress,
and popular discontent, which it is the part
of patriotic policy to avoid. From every
point of view, it seems desirable that the
State should assume the payment of the
tax. In that case, the fifteen per cent re-
mitted to the State, will roiluce the amount
to be raised from S10b,52ri to ^92,245. I
take it that the claims of the Slate against
the Federal government will amount to
about 88,000, which if allowed, will reduce
the amount due the Government, to S84,-
245.

What is ev.eu more imjxtrtant in assum-
ing its paymenr, the State is at liberty to
select the method of i-aising the amount
which her authorities may Jeem least bur-
densome to the people. As notice of our
intention to provide for it must be j^ven by
the second Tuesday of February, I beg to
press upon you, gentlemen, the necessity of
proceeding immediately to an election of the
alternative propositions thus submitted to
your consideration.

If it shall be your judgment that the
State undertake the responsibility of pay-
ing this tax, thrfie several modes sugKcst
themselves by which provision may be made
for its liquidation.

First by the ordinary method of a direct
tax^ payable in cash and collected through
the established channels. A levy of two
and one-fourth mills, if it could be collected
within the year, would enable us to meet
the Federal requisition, reduced as before
s{>ecified ; but as this could not be done,
judging from past experience in our ^ate
collections, the rate would have to be in-
creased to three mills, making the agregate
rate for Federal and State purposes seven
mills. One and a half mills is now collected
in sj)ecie. The war tax must also be paid
iu coin or treasury notes, making four add
one-half mills of specie tax. Or otherwise
staled, you want for State purposes in all in
1862, $93,300 ; for Federal purposes, ^84,-
245.40, making the total sum to be collect-
ed, #177,545.40. The State tax of four
mills would yield upon a valuation of $39,-
000,000, §156,000 ;« Federal levy of three
miirs, ^117,000, niakiiig a total of .^273,000.
Doubtless our people would respond to a
national tax in the present crisis more cheer-
fully aud prom]:)tly than to any other, but
it is jeasy to-, see that this nearly double
burden would press heavily on the already
straiued resources of the people, and it be-
hooves us then to devise, if ]iossibJe, the
means of postponing an immediate resort
to taxation, till the expansion of the prop-
erty basis shall have made it less onerous.

A second mode is to create a State loan,
(which I doubt, not we are warranted in
doing under Bee. 7, Art. 9. of the Consti-
tution,) from the moneys ari^ing from the
sale of the school lauds. The preliminaries
for suA sale, if directed by the Legislature,
may soon be adjusted, and a sum sufficient
for the pur])ose may possil)ly he realized
withiu the required time.

Or, thirdly, if this is tloul)tful, in antici-
pation of the revenues from this source, a
loan might be effected in the money mar-
ket for a period of two or three years^t a
rate of interest not, I trust, exceeding swen
per cent, to be reimbursed from the j|o-
ceeds of the sales of school lands, whnb
may be converted into a funded debt for
that purpose
Ofie or two, or all of these exp^^Dts will

paries agreeing to their redemiitiou. This
sch-mie, if adopted, will probably solve the
difficult problem of Western banking.

It will ."umishan unimpeachable curren-
cy of e<iua! value, everywhere, aud besides
the manifest advantages of a uniform aud
familiar a)«|i|bm of circulation over the end-
less and |c^5f»^"g variety of issues now
current, iTpwJmises a final relief from the
recurrence of the enormous losses which
are now suffered by our people, with the pe-
riodical explosion of the banks.

' THE PUBLIC LANDS.

The Eeport of the Register of Public
Lands presents a subject of the first import-
ance. The acts under which the Land De-
partment was orgauiued literally create two
separate Boards, in name, consisting of the
same persons, and exercising functions es-
sentially identical. You will of course rem-
edy this confusion of names aud things, by
the enactment of a more perfect law. The
bmiiness of the Department has progressed
as rapidly as was jjraetical)le, or consistent
with the magnitude of the interests entrust-
ed to its supervision. The plats and necet*-
sary booki. are in course of preparation,
and will soon be in such readiness as will
enable the Board to take the necessary
steps for supplying the deficiencies of the

country like ours. It is simr>le and econo-
nucal, aud has the advanta^re of being ap-
pro\ed by the most'^experionced teachers in
all parts of the cotmtry.

I our more intimate acqiaiotance with
the sentiments of the jjeople at hirge, will
enable you to judge of the n icessity of this
and other proiKJsed changes, and to meet^ it
is hoped, the general expectation, in tJie
passage of an efficient school law.

The Normal Board, accoidingto the law
passed last winter, recommended a uiiifonn
serfeB of text books, which has been adoptr
ed by most of the schook in the State.
Cont^i»ct8 have been made v ith the publish-
ers of tJ»e books, and they are furnished to
the State at reasonable rateg, and the pricet
according to the terms of th ? contract, can-
not be raised for five years. Teachers and
Boards of Education differ iu reference to
school books, and entire uniformity is im-
po.ssible, but tlie act of the Legislature and
selection of the Normal Board being fol-
lowed by a contract with the publishers,
should be regarded as binding until the
terms of the contract ttre fulfilled.

The report of the Superi itendeul on the
question of elevating the teachers profess-
ion, must miM-t the hearty concurrence ol
every right minded man. B;: the enactment
of suitable laws, and the liberal support ol

abroad, which has abeady had a mariced in-
fluence, and cannot fail to result iu great
ami lusting benefits, liis secoad-- 4ib«muJ
report will repay as an emigrant document
a hundred fold the small expenditure in-
curred iu ita publication and distributioo.

The propo.-ition of the Commissioner to
pul)lish ui)stracts of the*' reportij in Gep-
mao un 1 one of the Scandinavian dialects,
but without additional expense, may per-
lmi>s require u> be authorized by the*Legi&-
lat4ire. \Vhe.u our tiuaoceh shall admit,
more extensive efforts to iufluence tnxgnr
lion may 1m- enqdoyed, but for the present
the Bureau of Statistics, while of great
utility in other dii-ef-tions, seems likely to
achieve far more in this interest than the
much more expensive and ostentations
agencies of other States, while the charao-
ter of its publications is such as to influenos
opinions in quarters ina<xe8sible to the or-
dinary class of emigration docamenta.

INEQUALITY OF THE FEDERAL TAX,

While Minnesota will cheerfully and
gladly accept her Cull share of the sacrifices
.which the obligations of patriotism impose
upon the nation, it is nevertheless much to
be regretted that the Federal Constitution
provides no way of apportioning the direct
tax which it authorizes, e.vcept upon the
basis of tjic population of the different
States — a principle, which, since the tax is
levied upon prof)erty. distributes the bur-
den very unequally among the different
members of the Confederacy, and works a
serious injustice to the new and sparsely
settled, and comparatively poor states of
the West.

This inequality will be made cletu- by
comparing the rale of taxation necessary
to produce the amount levied upon the as-
sessed valuation of MinnesoUi with that of
Rhode Island, having the same popula-
tion :

PopulatioQ Aasessed Federal Rate of
1S60. valuat'on. tax.

R. Island. 174,6-21 180,000,000 116,900

Minnesota, 172,0215 39,000,000 10s,500

That is to say, the quota of Minnesota
relatively to the value of her property, is
more than three times as great as that of
Rhode Island. The comparison might be
extended with somewhat similar results to
nearly al! the States. Against our 2 8-10
mills, California pays but 1 7-10, Ohio and
New York, I 8-10, and so on.

But the injustice of a system which ope-
rates 80 imequally is sufficiently manifest
from these examples. While it is of course
impossible for Congress imder the terms of
the Constitution to concede us any abate-
ment of the present tax, equity diemands,
and there can be no technical objection to
their making, such a modification of the
collection laws in our favor as would serve
to obviate to some extent the practical ine-
qualities of the present system. Our claims
to the consideration of ^e Government in
this matter are enhanced by the fact, that
while the burdens of the war fall three
fold upon us, our remote frontier position
excludes us from any of the compensatory
benefits arising from the disbursements of
the Government for the materials of war.

BANKLS'O AND CTERENCY.

In the Banking Department, the Auditor
i^orts bat few aad unimportaat traasao-

detjm advisable for the disposition of these
and oIUbc iimds,

The experimental re-survey of the Swamp
Lanils in certain designated townships pre-
.scribed by the act of March 11, 1861, was
foiaid to be imjiraolicable under its provis-
ions, and from the partial survey had, was
no I deemed likely to lead to any useftil re-
sults, even if it could have been prosecuted.
The concluiiiou arrived at by tJie Board,
that the State would i>e the gainer on the
whole by accepting the Government sur-
veys, is commended to your favorable con-
sic.eration.

The rent on the occupied school lands,
astiesBed jmder a law of the last session, will
probably amount to about eighteen thou-
sand dollars, implying i^n Oiicupancy of
about 52,000 acres, worth at the minimum
valuation about $360,000. These, it is rea-
so;iable to infer, are among the most valua-
blt! of the school lands now left and it is
not unnatural that the persons who have
been permitted to retain possession of them
th rough the forbearance of the State, should
hope by another exercise of legislative clem-
ency, 10 secure titles thereto at prices far
below their value. But it is difficult to see
what special claims to legislative favor these
persons have acquired by an admitted —
though perhaps not always designed — tres-
pass upon the public property.

A just and liberal spirit ought to pervade
al! the laws enacted for the sale or rent of
thJ .school lands; alike without invidious
dijcrimi nation against one class, or in favor
of another. If the provisions of the pres-
ent law bear Unequally upon the lessees,
th?y might perhaps be so modified as to
remedy caecs of individual hardships. But
this should be done with a strict view to the
paramount public hiterest involved. It is
obvious that if any considerable school fund
is to be realized to the State, for a number
of years, that the utmost circumspection
must be observed, in the disposition of the
class of lands which have now reached a re-
spectable value.

My own views upon this subject have
been urged at so great length heretofore,
that it is minecessary to repeat them. But
I iihould be unfaithful to a strong convic-
tion of duty, if I failed to inculcate once
m')re upon the representatives of the people
the necessity of the most rigid and scrupu-
loils guardianship of the sacred trust which
the Constitution confides to you in theman-
apement of the school lands,' and to admon-
isJi you against any attempts, disguised un-
der any pretext, to induce you to sacrifice
th» interests of the school fund.
i Unfortunately, a large proportion of the
^m')*?* valuable school lands have been pre-

ertlpted under the act of Congress of March
3d, 1857. The equivalent quantity, which
tbJ State is authorized to select from the
GDvernment land.s, will be far from equiva-
lent in value to the original sections. It is
hoped that a considerable portion of the lat-
tei' may be recovered to the State. It will
be' perceived by a reference to the Report
of the Attorney General, that the question
wliidi has been mooted, regarding the right
ofEhe State to vindicate her title in her own
Courts, to school Iand'< fraudulently pre-
empted, by parties falsely swearing to set-
tlement pflor to the survey, has Ijeen sub-
stsmtially decided in our favor.

3'here is reason to believe that much of
th'5 mo.^t valuable land has been thus pre-
enroted, and |>atente issued therefor.

If these patents can be successfidly im-
peached, the school fund will be greatly en-
hanced. The action which has been taken
by the Executive thus far, has been without
express legislative dire,;tion. The question,
however, is assuming a practical importance
which entitles it to your serious attention,
and it is desirable I5iat the Executive should
hare the benefit 0f your advice and eanc-
ticfi, in a matter 6f so much interest to eve-
ry citizen.

I also commend to your favorable notice
tho suggestion of the Attorney General, as
to the collection aud preservation of the
Criminal Statistics of the State. It is be-
lie (red that much information of great value
to the enlightened legislator might be col-
lected with little or no expense.

EDUCATIO.V.

During the recess of the Legislature, the
office of Superintendent of Public Inetruc-
tioD having been resigned by the Eev. E.
D, Neill. to assume the Chaplaincy of the
Fii«t Regiment of Minnesota Volunteers, it
aff<)rded me great satisfaction to be able to
supply his place by the appomtment of the
Rev. Dr B. F. Crary, a gentleman who
brings to the office all the requisites of
schiolarship, ability, and energy which dis-
tina^uished his predecessor.

The Department of Public Instruction,

isliition of the last session, rendering it nec-

of teachers that will be an ht>nor aud a bless-
ing to the whole Stale.

The report of the NormiJ Board, made
.to you through the Superintendent of Pub-
lic Instruction, will give«an account of its
action, and of the success of the school du-
ring the year. The Legiilatnre A-ill, no
doubt, feel, in common with i he whole State,
that it is creditable to us to have a success-
ful Normal School at so e irly a period in
our history. The legislation necessary to
its greater efficiency, and continued useful-
ness, we trust may be given

The increasing business in the office of
Superintendent of Public Instruction, and
the importance of giving tiat officer more
time to visit the different sections of the
State, require that a more liberal compens-
ation should be allowed, and provision
made for a clerk for the office.

The recommendation of the State Super-
intendent that military drill be enjoined as
a part of school exercise, is brought to your
attention. Whether this should be left to
the Normal Board, and to Boards of Edu-
cation, is left to your judgment; but the
subject ie commended as oie of no ordina-
rj' importance to our state md nation. The
precious time and \ ast amount of means
lost to our country, for want of military
training, during the preseni war, should ad-
monish us that it is wi.-^doni to prepare Ttji
future emergencies. American ^f»uthk il
trained as suggested, woull grow up into
an invincible people, fully urmed, and hence
profoundly respected abroad. That ade-
quate [>reparaUou for war is the only sure
guarantee of peace, is a lesiion imperatively
taught by the calamities of the times.

The adairsof the University will demand
your attention. The Report of the Board
of Regents will give you a very full under-
standing of its circumstances, and will
doubtless leave the impi-ession on your
minds, as on others, that tlie unfortunate
condition of that Institution can, in view
of present events, be best adjusted by ap-
pointing a commission witi full power and
authority to transfer the 1 inds and pro|>-
erty of the University in payment of its
debts. The claims againsr, the Institution
amount to $93,500. Upor close scrutiny,
this may doubtless be reduced. It is possi-
ble that the lands, of which there are 46,080
acres, may be made to liquidate the debts,
and save to the University, the buildings
aud adjacent lands.

I come with great regrt t to this conclu-
sion; but after much considtation with the
members of the BoM"d, wh d have been act-
uated by a sincere desire U save this much
prized foundation to the noble uses for
which it was granted, no other alterwitrve
seems practicable, while it« continued reten-
tion only adds to its embairassmeuts, with-
out opening any new sourc^-s of relief!

It is probable that the authorities at
Washington may yet concede the construc-
tion we have contended fo •, of that clause
of the enabling act of February 26, 1857,
donating two towns for Uilh'ersity ptxr-
poses. If this ho}>e be Te«flized, and more
cmisiderate counsels shd^l in the fiiture
govern those having charge of these inter-
est-;, the University of Miinesota may yet
b« a richljr endowed institution.

To guard against the post ibility of abuse,
in the disposition of the present property
of the University, the arrangement, what-
ever it najftv be, might be submitted to a fu-
ture Legislature before coBSommation, and
the expenses t|at may be incurred should
be confined to a certain an<3 limited sum.

It is iHit justice to the p-esent Board to
say tl^ Utey have indulged in no expendi-
tures cut the small sums which the cart? of
the DToperty required, and which were at
aagt dischu-ged, as will be seen by the re-
pjMt of the Treasurer and Ag«Dt of the
Board of Regents.

THE STATE PRISON.

I invite your attention to the very inter*
esting reports of the Warden and of the In-
s|>ectors of the State Prison, at Stillwater.
For some unaccountable cause, the legisla-
ture at their last two ses-sious omitted to
provide for the most ui^ent and ordinary
necessities of this institution. ITiis neglect
has embarrassed the operations of the offi-
cers having care of the institution, and at
the same time has uecessariiy resulted in aa
additional charge to the Stata

The appropriation for the enlargement of
the Prison, so as to furnish a hospital, a di-
ning room, and a few cells for female pris-
oners, has been prudently expended.

The convicts at thic time are twenty-tWb
in number, against sixteen on the first of
Januarj", T861, and with one or two excep-
tions, all the cells are occupied. It is bare-
ly possible that we may get through tha
present year without the oecessity of adding
to our present cell accommodation; but this
cae only be done by assigning two or mora
of the class of prisoners charged with minor
offenses to the same cell, an expedient
which would hazard the security of all. An
expenditure of twelve or fifteen thousand
dollars, it is beUeved, will be sufficient for
an enlargement which would furnish eighty
additional celL^, and afford all the accommo-
dation which would probably be needed for
eight years.
Ti*e hospital dining room, Ac, just erected
will, it is thought, suffice /or aU the wants
of the prison within that time. The sum
need not all be expended in one year, but
its disbursemettt may be very profitably
distributed through a period of three or
four years, if the Legislature should deem
it advisable to commence the required ex-
tension at once. John R Stevens, the con-
tractor for the labor of the convicts, hav-
ing abandoned his contract on the 20th of
Mareh last, I' advised the inspector to in-
vite proposals for labor, and, under the
conipetition of rival applicaots, the terms

The discipUne of the prison is excellent,
and the health and oomfort of the convicts
all that could be desired.

With the increase of the price of labor
which may be reasonably anticipated, the
earnings of the convicts will in a few years
meet all the current expenditures of the
prison. The current exp«mses of the iosti-

THE STATE LfBRARY.

The report of the State Labrarian exhib-
its the gratifying fact that the very excel-
lent system of exchanges betw«?n the
States, the only source of our supply, has
given OS an uocreasc of volumes during the
past year beyond that of any previooa one.

If our finances admitted* of it, I should
be pleased to recommend a small appro-
priation 80 that the broken sets of State
reports, Ac. might be completed Four
bondred dollars, it is believed, frould be
amply sufficient for the purpose. The
newspapers of the State that are fumished
the Library, form valuable materials of lo-
cal history, and as they have now accumu-
lated to an inconvenient degree, it might
be well to have them bonnd.

too monstvous in its aims, for sv^rious per-

of American tenilory, and we stand upon
the brink of events that may decide the
fate of the Republic and of the human race

Ail purely local objects of legislation
sink into insignificance beneath the shadow
of this stupendous national calamity. The
j>eril which menaces the fabric cif the Fetl-
eral Government invohcs the institutions
and the destiny of every State.

The Constitution, under which the young-
est a^d poorest i> tlie jieer of the ulde.st
and wealthiest member of tbe Confederacy,

We have cause to felicitate ourselves
that, in spile of th*^ still visible effect- of
the fiuaucial pro>tration of 18.')T, and the
etjormous pressure of the war upon the iv-
soun es of the nation, the Stale of Minne-
sota has continued her onward progiess in
uopidatioii, wealth, agricultniv, and in near-
Iv evcrv deparlmi'nt of iudu.-trv and social
improvemenL It is scarcely le.-<s indicative
of the elastic energy of our people, than it
U honoral)le to their loyally, that, having
made the first tender of armed aid to the
General (ioveiumeut, upon the fall of
Stimpter, in April last, our State w;i.s among
the first which furnish'^d their full iiunta of
the half a miliioii men called l>y the Gen-
eral Government to the national defence.

Notwithstanding the force we have .sent
oeyond our borders, in military array, our
population, by the best data, has increased
from IT'J.oOO iu.June J si, I.^GO, to over
2'J0,iXK» souls. Our fanners in three years
L&ve nearly doubled the tlominion of the
plough and the re.iper. In place of im-
porting a part of our own food, our e.x-
porls of trrain have swollen, in the same
short jjeriod, to three or four millions bush-
els, in the mean time the expen.-es o!" the
State Government have been reduced more
than one-half : the State tax has been les-
sened twenty per cont., while the taxable
property has htrgely increased ; the county
and town-ship organizations have been
placed upon a far more economical and effi-
cient bi^is ; the interests of public instruc-
tion have been organized and stimulated by
an effective supervision : the public credit
has been maintained ; the people have been
educated bvthc .stern discipline of uecessitv
to habits ol economy and industry ; our
State has become, or is rapidly becomiiiff
known abroad as the .synonym of health
and plenty, and the foundations are being
socurely laid in our civil and social
ecouomyfor a career of solid and enduring
prosperity when trade and Imsiness shall
aave resumed their ordinary channels.

ter of the State Land Board, are herewith
transuiiited. Next, to the simplicity, scope
and thoroughness of the departmental or-
eanization, no feature engrafted by recent
Rgislation upon our State Government is
more important, in its practical bearings,
than the complete and sy,-.tematic exposi-
tion of its affairs, which is afforded, from
year to year, iu this series of official re-

Eorts, constituting a compact body of pub-
c documents niadily accessible to the
svUole people. These reports which will
be laid before you. according to law in a
printed form, not only contain a valuable
mass of descriptive and progressive statis-
tics of great popular utility, as a record of
our financial, civil and social history ; but
are replete with information indispensable
to the Legislature for the intelligent dis-
charge of its duties. They will furnish,
too, abundant evidence of the iudustrj- and
fidelity with which the officers from whom
they emanate have discharged their duties.

FI.NANCIAL CONDITION.

The report of the Treasurer gives an en-
couraging view of the finances of the State.
This report, it will be seen, covers a period
of but eleven months, from January I to
December 1, owing to a change made in
the fiacal year by the last Legislature

Al lUTOu's KKPOKT AND ESTLM.VTES FOR 1861^

'I'he law requires the reports of thei^tate
officers to be deposited in the E.vecuti ve office
on or before the fifth of December, The
State Auditor has been givatly embamtssed
in meeting this (-nactinent, from the neglect
of the D'gislatun^ to require the County
^^.uditors to make their ivturns Ix^fore the
date fixe<l for his report. This oversight
will, of course, receive your attention. The
very inter«:'sting report of the Auditor ex-
Iiil>its a steady increase in the wealth of
the State, even in these d(.'pressing times.
The apprai.semeut of real estate being maile
biennially, remains as equalized in 1^<50.
iJut the addition of new taxable areas, new
structures, and the increase in personal
property, raises the whole assessed valua-
tion of 'l8Gl, to $39,000,000. In 1860 it
was $36,000,000, showing a very gratifying
expansion of the basis of taxation. At
the present r.ate of tixation of four mills
on the dollar, it will yield a revenue of
SI ",6,000 for the year 1862.

The very prudent reqnir(;ment that one
and a half'mills of the State tax .shouhl be
paid in gold and silver, will enable the
ti-easury to provide more ra])idly than here-
tofore for the interest upon the eight per
cent bonds payable in New York.

quent expaiisiou of the basis of taxtition.

we .-hall Uoat into the condition of a State

free from all debt, and the burthens of the

people will be so ro<iuced as to be scarcely

perceptible.

The extraordinary taxes which the war

compels the Federal Government to impost;

upon us, furnish another and cogent ivason

for a fiugal management of our affairs, and

though it id hoped this lax will not be re-
pealed after th<' jirt-seut year, it is the part

of prudence and patriotism to be pi-e])artHl

for any sacrifice, which our countn. may

require at our hand-s.

IJKIOHT PKOSPFirrS FOR >nNNFSOTA.

When this war shall have terminated, as
it apparently soon will, in the triumph of
the cause of the Constitution and the laws,
judging by the past experience of the coun-
try, we may justly anticipate a revival of
the business and industry of the West be-
yond any prece<lent in our frontier history.

Tens of thousands of our countrymen,
after having been drawn from the quiet
and monotonous life of our ea.stern towns,

to shai-e in the advenlurous turmoil.4>f the] take it that the- claims of tlu
battle-field, will prefer the excitement and
prosperous activity of a ne,v career in the
VVei^t, to a return to their old homes. This
has been the case iu all r-imilar epochs in
our military history. The termination ol
the old Fi-ench war, the war of the Revolu-
tion, that of 1812, and more recently the
war w ith Mexico, have been the great eras
of w»,'.stwai"d emigration.

Then, too, the business energies, whkth'
have been crampeii by the consecpiences ol
past misfortunes, will botm^ forward, with
a new impulse, on the tide of westward emi-
gration ; and Minnesota, and the immense
tributary region on her northwestern border,
open the only field now left on the Ameri-
can continent, for the westward e.xtension
of settlement, imd the continued play of the
j)roihgious energies which have built up
the great States of the Mi-ssissippi Valley.
This is the only " new country " available
for agriculture which remains to the Ameri-
can emigrant. West of us beyond the
turbid Missouri, the boundless Buffalo
plains stretch in sterile nakedness to the
mountain border of the Pacific, and south-
ward to the Meiican lioundary. The ce.ase-
less drouth which consumes the sources of
vegetable life, in this interior desert, and
which often visits its eastern borders in
Kansas and Nebraska, cairying starvation
and death iu it.- train, inexorably forlnd it
as the home cA' tho farmer.

But in our luxuriant and well-watered
domain, extending for hundreds of miles to
the northwest, millions of homes, .stocked
beforehand, with every requisite of health
and prosperity, are yet to be had for the
taking. Under these circumstances, we
have i-eason to anticipate a mo.st prosper-
ous future in store for us. And 1 i)eg oi
you, gentlemen, to believe that it is for the
purpose of making this beautiful State ol
ours more inciting to the emigrant when
that day comes, and which 1 have never
doulited would come, that I am especially
solicitous to- have our household in order.

It was not the mere consideration that
■^ 100,000 annually mitrht 1)6 saved to our
impoverished peojjle in the administration
of the Government with advantage to its
efiiciency, it was not to satisfy the honest
citizen that a wasteful annual expeiuliture
of nearly 890,000 for printing might be
beneficially reduced to one-eighth that sum,
immediately important as thot^e objects are,
that I have so k»ng j)ersisted in urging' an
economical policy ; l)ut, after having af-
forded the needed relief to an overburdened
people, it was to hold out to the great ami\
of emigrants whom the inevitable course of
events mu.st soon turn toward the virgin lands
of the Northwest, the assurance that here, in
Minnesota, their industry was not to be
Inimper'-d, n(?i' their a-piration thwarted by
oppressive taxes for the su{)port of official
extravagance ; it was to make our noble
State esteemed throughout the world as in-
viting in its municipal, as it is iu its physi-
cal aspects, and as desirable in the present,
as ii is promising in the future.

THE FEDERAL WAR T.VX.

Uur position as a member of the cori-
federacy imposes upon us an import.ant,
but to us a new and unexpected duty.
The war in which the rebels of thetjouth
have causelessly involved the country,' has
comjielled the Federal Government to exer-
cise her constitutional privilege of levying
a war ta.x, a part of which devolves on us.

The Congress of the United States, in
extra session, pa-ssed an act, approved Au-
gu.st ."(, 1861, pioviding "that a direct tax
of twenty millions o'' dollars be and is
hereby annually laid on the people of the
Uuitetl States." By this act the sum of one
hundred and eight thousand five hundred
and twenty-five dollars is apportioned to
Minnesota. The leading provisions of the
act of Congress are as follows :

" Sec. 9. On or after the second Tues-
" day of February, 1862, the President shall
■■ appoint a.ssessors and collectors w ith the
•• consent of the Senate in each di.strict, and
" may divide the United States into district,s,
" and may erect each State into one dis-
•trict. * * *

'• Sec. 11. Each assessor shi^i^nde his
'• district into a convenient uumbeWl^ssess-
" ment clistricts, and appoint assistant as-
" scssors in each.

"Sec. 12. On the lr<t day of Msu-ch,
"1862, tlie assessors shall cause the assistant
" assessors to assess all lands and improve-
"mentsiu conformity to such regulations
" as the Secretary of the Treasury may esta-
" blish, and shall make such assessments
" with reference to the assessment rolls of
" the State, and to any other records and
" documents.

" Sec- 13, I^nds and improvements to
" be valued at the rate they are worth in
"money on April 1st, 1862, United States
" and States propt^rty exempt from taxation,
"also property exempted by State laws,
"and property of individuals residing on
" such lands, not exceeding $o00. In mak-
" ing such valuation, regard shall be had to
" any State valuation made neare.st to said
" first day of April * *

"Sec. 1-3. If the owner is not prepared
"to e.xhibit a written list, the assessor shall
" make one, which on being read and con-
•' sented to by the owner, shall be taken as

.METHOD OF PAYINO TITS TAX.

Umler this law theu, the State may elect

s<>i between two modes of meeting this levy.

3n T^l'<^ "'<i.V assume its payment in her o\vu

way, or by neglecting lo do so, leave it to

the operation of the Federal collection

laws,"

The latter .alternative is liable to serious
objection, as it would introduce a new ma-
chinery of assessment, new standards of
valuation, employing a large class of fede-
ral ag-ents unfamiliar to our people; while
the peremptory modes of collection neces-
sai'ily enforced under tlie Federal laws might
introduce elements of irritation, distress,
and popular discontent, which it is the pan
of patriotic policy to avoid. From every
point of view, it seems desirable that the
State .should assume the payment of the
tax. In that case the fifteen per ccik. re-
mitted to the Stale, will reiluce the amount
lo be raised from 8:l0b,52.'> to :g92,2i5. I

tale against
the Federal government will amount to
about S8,000, which if allowed, will retluce
the amount dut3 the Government to SS4,-
24.5.

"What is ev.en more imix)rt»int iu assum-
ing its payment', the State is at liberty to
select the method of raising the amount
which her authorities may deem least bur-
densome to the people. As notic^e of our
intention to provide fjr it must be given by
the second Tuesday of Feiuiiarv, 1 bejr to
press iqton you, gentlemen, the necessity of
proceetling immediately to an election of the
alternative propositions thus .submitted to
your consideration.

If it shall be yoiu: judgment that the
State undertake the responsibility of pay-
ing this tax, tlmie .several modes .suggest
themselves by which ]uo vision may be made
for its liquidation.

First by the ordinary method of a direct
tax^ payaltle in cash and collected through
the established channels. A h-vy of two
and one-fourth mills, if it could be collected
within the year, would enul>le us to meet
the Fedeml requisition, reduced as before
specified ; but as this could not be done,
judging from past experience in our State
collections, the rate would ha\e to be in-
creased to three mills, making the agregate
rate for Federal and State purpo.ses seven
mills. One and a half mills is now collected
in specie. The war lax must also be paid
in coin or treasury notes, making four and
one-half mills of specie tax. Or otherwise
.stated, you want for State purpo.ses in all in
1862, Iif93,3(i0 ; for Federal purposes, §84,-
24.5.40, making the total sum to be collect-
ed, S1TT,.")-1.').40. 'Ihe State tax of four
mills would yield upon a valuation of $39,-
000,000, S1.)6,0U0 :« Federal levy of three
milfs, ;^1 17.000, making a total of .'^273,000.

Doubtless our people would respoud to a
national tax in the present crisis more cheer-
fully and promj.tly than to any oilier, but
it is ,easy to,. see that this nearly double
burden would pre.ss heavily on the already
strained resources of the j)eople, and it be-
hooves us then lo devise, if possible, the
means of postj)oning an immediate resort
to taxation, till the expansion of the prop-
erty basis shall have made it less onerous.

A second mode is to create a State loan,
(which I doubt not we are warranted in
doing under Sec. 7, Art. 9. of the Consti-
tution,) from the moneys aii-iug from the
sale of the .school lands. The preliminaries
for such sale, if directed by the Legislature,
may soon be adjusted, and a sum sufficient
for the pur]>ose may ])Ossiltly be realized
within the re(|uired time.

Or, thirdly, if this is doubtful, in antici-
pation of the revenues from this source, a
loan might be effected in the money mar-
ket for a period of two or three years,-ttt u
rate of interest not, 1 trust, exceeding se^'en
per cent, to be reimbursed from the jko-
ctN'ds of the sales of school lands, whio|^
may be converted into a funded debt for
that purj>ose.

One or two, or ail of these expedients will
enable us to provide for the present exi-
gency without serious embarrasament to the

INEQUALITY OF THE FEDERAL X\X.

While Minnesota will cheerfully and
gladly accejit her liull share of the sacrifices
which the obligations of patriotism impose
uj)on the nation, it is nevertheless much to
be regretted that the Federal Constitution
provides no way of apportioning the direct
tax which it authorizes, excej)t upon the
hasi-i of tiie population of the different
States — a principle, which, since the tax is
levied upon projjerty, distributes the bur-
den very unequally among the different
inembers of the Confedera<*y, and works a
serious injustice to the new and sparsely
settled, and comparatively jtoor states of
the West-

This ine(|uality will be made clear by
comparing the rate of taxation necessary
to produce the amount levied upon the as-
sessed valuation of Minnesota with that of
Rhode Island, having the same pojmUi-

tion :

Population Assessed Federal Rate of

ls60- valuat'on. tax. taxation.

.MinncKotii, 172,<"22 39,0t>O,0CHi los,.'j«.M> -2 S-IO "

That is to say, the quota of Minnesota
relatively to the value of her property, is
more than three times a-s great a= that of
Rhode Island. The comparison might be
extended w ith somewhat similar results to
nearly all the States. Against our 2 8-10
mills, California psiys but 1 7-10, Ohio and
New York, 1 8-10, and so on.

But the injustice of a .system which ope-
rates so unequally is sufficiently manifest
from these examples. While it is of course
impossible for Congress tmder the terms of
the Constitution to concede us anv abate-
ment of the present tax, equity demands,
and there can be no technical objection to
their making, such a modification of the
collection laws in our favor as would serve
to obviate to some extent the practical ine-
qualities of the present system. Our claims
to the consideration of the Government in
this matter are enhanced by the fact, that
while the burdens of the war fall three
fold upoa us, our remote frontier position

ol all the AN esteni Slates, has prepared us j i)ropoBe<l.

THE PCBLIC LANDS.

The Report of the IlegLster of Public
Lands presents a subject of the first import-
ance. The acts under which the Land De-
partment was organised literally create two
separate Boards, in name, consisting of the
same persons, and e.xercising functions es-
seijtially identical. You will of course rem-
edy this confusion of names and things, bv
iho' enacuneiit of a more' perfect law. The
ba-jiness of the Department has progi-essed
as rapidly as was jiracticable, or consistent
with the magnitude of the interests entrust-
ed to its supervision. The plats and neces-
sary booka arc iu course of j)reparation,
and will soon be in .such readiness s^ will
enable the lioard to take ihe uecx^-ssary
.steps for supplying the deficienci<^s of the
school .sections, and for any action you may
deiui advisable for the disposition of lhe.se
ani other lands.

The experimental re-sur\ey of the Sw amp
Latids in certain designated townships pre-
.scnbed by the act of March 11, 1861, was
found to \)f imprac'ticable under its provis-
ions, and from the partial survey had, was
not deemed likely to leiul to any useful re-
sults, even if it could have been prosecuted.
The conclusion arrived at by the Board,
that the State would be the gainer on the
whole by accepting the Goveniment sur-
veys, is commended lo your favorable con-
sitk'ration.

The rent on the occujiied school lands,
assessed under a law of the last session, will
l>roliably amount to about eighteen thou-
saad dollars, implying un occupancy of
about .■)2,00ii acres, w orth at the minimum
valuation about $360,000. These, it is rea-
soaable to infer, are among the most valua-
lil'} of the school lands now lelt, and it i.^
not unnatural that the persons who have
been permitted to retain pos.session of them
through the forbearance of the State, should
hc'pe by another exercise of legislative clem-
eiicy, to secure titles thereto at prices far
below their value But it is difficult to see
what special claims to legislative favor these
persons have acquired by an admitted —
thouirh perhaps not always designed — tres-
pass upon the public proi>erty.

A just and liberal spirit ought to pervade
all the laws enacted for the sale or rent of
the school lands; alike without invidious
discrimination against one class, or in favor
of another. If the jjrovisions of the pres-
ent law bear unequally upon the lessees,
they might jjerhaps be so modified as to
remedy caws of individual hardships. But
tills should be done w ith a strict \ iew to the
paj-amount public interest involved. It is
obvious that if auycoasiderable school fund
is to be realized to the State, for a number
of years, that the utmost circumspection
m 1st be ob.served, in the disposition of the
class of lands which ha\e now reached a re-
spectable value.

My own views upon this subject have
bc'Cn urged at so great length heretofore,
that it is unnecessary to repeat them. But
I should be unfaithful to a strong convic-
titm of duty, if I failed to iucidcate once
more upon the repre'sentatives of the people
the necessity of the most rigid nnd scrujiu-
loas guardian.ship of the .sacred trust which
the Constitution confides to you in theman-
aei'raent of the school lands, and to admon-
ish you against any attempts, disgui.sed un-
der any j.retext, to induce you to sacrifice
the interests of the school fund.

Unfortunately, a large proportion of the
,most valuable school lands have been pre-
empted under the act of Congress of March
3o, 1857. The equivalent quantity, which
the State is authorized to select from the
Government land.s will be far from equiva-
lent iu value to the original sections. It is
hoped that a con.siderable portion of the lat-
te;' may be recovered to the State. It will
be perceived by a n'fereuce to the Report
of the Attorney General, that the question
which has been mooted, regarding the right
of the State to vindicate her title in he r own
Courts, to school lands fraudulently pre-
empted, by parties falsely swearing to set-
tlement prior to the survey, has been sul>-
stantially decided in our favor.

There is reason to believe that much of
\hi most valuable land has been thus pre-
empted, and patents issued therefor.

If these patents can be successfully im-
peached, the .school fund w ill be greatly en-
hanced. The action which has been taken
by the Executive thus far, has been without
express legislativedirejtion. ITie question,
however, is as.suming a practical importance
which entitles it to your serious attention,
and it is desirable that the Executive should
have the benefit of your advice and sanc-
tion, in a matter of so much interest to eve-
ry citizen.

I also commend to your favorable notice
this suggestion of the Attorney General, as
to the collection and preservation of the
Criminal Statistics of the State. It is be-
lieved that much information of great value
to the enlightened legislator might be col-
lected w ith little or no expense.

EOrCATIO.V.

During the recess of the Legislature, the
ofiEce of iSuperintendent of Public Instnic-
tion having been resigned by the Rev. E.
D. Neill, to assume the Chaplaincy of the
Fii'st Regiment of Minnesota V oluntoers, it
afforded me great satisfaction to be able to
BUjiply his place by the appointment of the
Rev. Dr. B. F. Crarj, a gentleman who
brings to the office all the requisites of
scholarship, abdity, and energy which dis-
tinguished his predecessor.

the Department of Public Instruction,
ha.') been embarra.ssed by the imperfect leg-
islation of the last session, rendering it nec-
essary to issue numerous explanations of

benefits arising from the disbursements of
the Government for the materials of war.

BANKING AND CTERENCY.

In the Banking Department, the Auditor
leports bat few and uaimportaut traasac-

The Normal Board, according to the law-
passed la.st winter, recomiwnded a uniform
series of text books, which 'las been adopt-
ed by most of the school; in the State.
Contracts have been made \ ith the jjublish-
ers of the books, and they are furnished to
the State at reasonable ratet , and the prices
accoi'diug- to the tenns of the contract, can-
not be mised for five years. Teachers and
Boards of Education differ iu reference to
schixil books, and entire uniformity is im-
possible, but the act of the Legislature and
selection of the Normal Board being fol-
lowed by a contract with the jmblishers,
should be regarded as bii ding until the
teniis of the contract are fulfilled.

The report of the Superiutendent on the
que.siion of elevating the teachers profess-
ion, must rni-et the hearty concurrence ol
every right minded man. B)' the enactment
of suitable laws, and the lib 'ral suj)port ol
the Normal School, we ma;.- secure a corps
of teachers that w ill be an honor and a Ijless-
iug to the whole Statt;.

The report of the Normid Board, made
to you through the Superin endent of Pub-
lic Instruction, will givetui account of its
action, and of the success cf the school du-
ring the year. The l^-gidature will, no
doubt, leel. inccmimon with he whole State,
ihat it is creditable to us tc have a succes.s-
ful Normal School at so eiirly a period iu
our hi.stoiT. The legislation necessarv" to
its greater efficiency, and c uitinued useful-
ness, we trust may be given.

The increasing business in the office of
Superintendent of Public Instruction, and
the importance of giving that officer more
tiuie to visit the ditterent sections of the
State, require that a more 1 literal compens-
ation should be allowed, and provision
made for a clerk for the office.

The recommendation of ihe State Super-
intendent that military drill be enjoined as
a part of school exercise, is brought to your
attention. Wliether this should be lei't to
the Normal Board, and to Boards of Edu-
cation, is left to your jucgment: but the
subject is commended as one of no ordina-
ry importance to our state iud nation. The
precious time and vast anount of means
lost to our country, for vaut of milit^rj-
training, during the pivsen: war, should ad-
monish us that it is wi.sdom to prepare Tai
future ennTgencies. American ysutlv il
trained as suggested, would grow up into
an invincible people, fully armed, and hence
profoundly respected abroad. That ade-
(juatc preparation for vvai is the only sure
guarantee of j>eace, is a lesion imperatively
taught by the ( alamities of the times.

The affairs of the University will ilemand
your attention. The Report of the Board
of Regents will give you a very full under-
standing ot its circumstances, and will
doubtless leave the imp -ession on your
minds, as on others, that tlie unfortnnate
condition of that In.stitution can, in view
of present events, be best adjusted by ap-
pointing a commission witb full power and
authority to transfer the lands and prop-
erty of the University in paj-ment of its
debts. The claims agains' the Institution
amount to i593,500. Upon close scrutiny,
this may doubtless be n>du -ed. It is possi-
ble that the lands, of w hich there are 46,080
acres, may be made to liqi idate the debts,
and save to the University, the buildings
and adjacent lands.

I come with great regr« t to this conclu-
sion; but 5d"ler much consultation with the
members of the Board, who have been act-
uated by a sincere desire t«. save this much
prized foundation to the noble uses for
which it was granted, no other alternative
seems practicable, w hile its continued reten-
tion only adds to its embaj rassment*;, with-
out opening any new sourci^s of relief

It is probable that the authorities at
Washington may yet concede the construc-
tion we have contended fo -, of that clause
of the enabling act of February 26, 1857,
donating two towns for I'liiversity pur-
po.se.>. If this hoj)e Ijereslized, and more
cmi.siderate counsels shdti'l 1 in the future
govern tho.se having charge of these inter-
ests, the University of Miiiiiesota may yet
be a richly endowed iustitutiom.

To guard against the pos: ibility ol' aba-^e,
in the disposition of the j; resent property
of the I'niversity. the arrcngement. what-
ever it may be, might be submitted to a fu-
ture Legislature Ijefore coD.summation, and
the expenses t^at may be incurred should
be confined to a certain anc limited sum.

It i£ but justice to the p-e.sent Board to
say that they have indulgec in no expendi-
tures but the small sums which the can* of
the property re-quired, and which were at
onee discharged, as will be seen by the re-
port of the Treasurer and Agent of the
Board of Regents.

THE STATE PRl.'^ON.

1 invite your attention to the vctt iutei^
estiug rejMuls of the ^\'arden and of the la-
speolors of the State Prison, nt Stillwater.
For some unaccountable cau.se, the legisla-
ture at their last two sessions omitted to
provide for the most urgent and oixlinary
necessities of this institution. This neglect
has embarrassed the operations of the offi-
cers having care of the iastitulion, and at
the same time has uece«sarily resulted in an
additionfd charge to the State,

The appropriation for the enlargement of
the Prison, so as to furnish a hospital, a di-
ning room, and a few cells for female pris-
oners, has been j)rudcntly expended.

The convicts at this time are twenty-two
in number, against sixteen on the first of
January, TB61. and vvitli one or two excep-
tions, all the cells are occupied. It is bare-
. ly possible that we may get through the
present year without the necessity of adding
to our present cell accommodation; but this
cag only Le done by assigning two or more
of the class of prisoners charged with minor
offenses to the same cell, an exj>edient
which would hazard the security of all. An
expenditure of twelve or fifteen thousand
dollars, it is believed, will be sufficient for
an enlargt^ment which woidd furnish eighty
additional cells, and afford all the accommo-
dation which would probably be needed for
eight years.
The hosj)ilal dining room. &c., just erected
will, it is thought suffice for all the wants
of the prison within that time. The sum
need not all be expended in one year, but
its disbursement may be very profitably
distributed througli "a j)Priod of three or
four years, if the Legislature should deem
it advisable to commence the required ex-
tension at once. John B. Stevens, the con-
tractor for the labor of the convicts hav-
ing abandoned his contract ou the 20th of
March last, 1 advised the inspector to in-
vite proposals for labor, and, under the
comp<'tition of rival applicants, the terms
of the contract made with Geo. M. Sey-
mour were the best that could be obtained
at the tijpe Since, however, this ariange-
meat though, under the circumstances ne-
cessary, contravenes the express enact-
ments of law, it will require v-our ratifica-
tion.

I'he discipline of the prison is excellent,
and the health and comfort of the convicts
all that could be desired.

With the increase of the price of labor
which may be reasonably anticipated, the
earnings of tlie convicts will in a fewyeare
meet all the current c-xivuditures of the
prison. The current expenses of the iuoti-

from the earnings of convict labor, from

The suggestions of the Warden that
some small sum, not exceeding ten dollars
in any one ca-e. be paid to the convicts on
their discharg(^ and that an abatement of

hnvior, w ill commend themselves to yonr
favorable judgment on the score both of
expediency and humanity.

THE STATE I,riiRARY.

The rej>ort of the State Librarian exhib-
its the gratifying fact that the very excel-
lent sy.stem of exchanges betwoen the
States, the only source of our supply, has
given us an increase of volumes during the
patjt year beyond that of any previooa one.

If our finances admitted 'of it, I should
be pleased to recommend a small appro-
priation so that the broken sets of State
reports, Ac- might be completed. Four
hundred dollars, it is believed, would be
amply sufficient for the purpose. The
newspapers of the State that are furnished
the Librar}-, form valuable materials of lo-
cal history, and a*! they have now accumu-
lated to an inconvenient degree, it might
be well to have them bound.

The decennial census returns of this
State for 1660, deposited with tbe Secre-
tary of State in pursuance of law, are a
most important part ol our State archives,
and I would recommend that the; b« a»>

we now possess from spoliation, gives an
evident emphasis to the tiugijt'.stion i>f the
Librarian for a niodilieation of ti\e law of
last session in reference to the Library.
HlsTOKlf VI. sorurrv.

As a mt'a-urt' of retrenchment, made iu>-
cedaary by the eir(.imi.-tuni"es of tlie time:?,
1 reconuuend the .siLs|H'iisioii. tor two or
thi-ee years, of the act makiuir an ainiual
appropriation to the Historical Society of
Minnesotx This Society, incorponvttHl in
1S49, is the oldest literary and scii-ntific
organization in the State, and has been
fostered by a small appropriation, as sim-
ilar societii^ have been by Wisconsin and
Iowa. To Its silent and uiiobtrusivo la-
bors we are indel)ted for tiie resou«» from
oblivion of many curious and romantic in-
cidents in the earlv history of this n''giou,
that will be prize*! by the futurt^ historian.
For two or three years, the society, appre-
ciatiujf the financial pressure upon our
people, voluntarily forbore asking their ai>-
ntyJ appropriation; but la.st year they in-
curi^il expense in the publication of •' Major
Long's canoe voyage to the Falls of St.
AutQony," whicli was distributed to the
members of the Let'islature and others. I
would therefore recommend that, in sus-
pending the annual appropriation, provi-
sioa be made for that due to last year, to
enable the Society to honestly discharge
the obligations inctirred by virtue of the
existing a^^t.

LAN'I> OR.iST RAILROADS.

By several acts of the la.«t session, cer-
tjin parties or companies were authorized
upon certain conditions to construct sever-
a iy the Minnesota and Pacific, the Cedar
Valley, the Transit and the Southern Min-
nesota Railroads. And for this purpose
they were to be invested, as construction
advanced, with all the lands, properties and
franchises to which the State had previous-
ly become f>ntitled by forfeittire and pur-
chase upon foreclosure, and they were re-
quired to deposit with the Governor the
gam of ten thousazid dollars as a guarantee
of good faith, to be forfeited in case of a
non-falliUmcnt of their obligations. These
measures have resulted in uu advance of
these desirable improvements, and the own-
ership of all remains in the State. The
breaking out of the war has effectually sus-
pended all enterprises of this nature, and it
Id thei^fprc not surprising that the con-
Btrtt,ction of these roads was not even at-
t'impted. except in the case of the Minne-
sota and Pacific- In this case the Compa-
Dv paid the State Treasurer tlie amount of
legal costs and expenses incurred by the
State in the foreclosure and sale of the said
road, and deposited with the Governor on
the 25th of June, thirteen Ohio Union Loan
Bonds, amounting in the aggregate at 90
cents to 37,200, and three State of Minne-
sota Interest Warrants of one thousand
dollars each. This sura so deposited agree-
ably to the fourth section of the " act to
facilitate the construction of the Minnesota
and Pacific Railroad," has been absolutely
forfeited to the Stale, in consequence of the
failufe of said Company to construct the
said road from St Paul to SL Anthony,
on or before the 1st of January, 1862.

Whether, under the peculiar circumstan-
ces of the case, the State shall retain the
, forfeited property, rests with you to deter-
mine; and in that case it will be your duty
to direct • how and by whom these stocks
shall be disposed of for the benefit of the
State.

As there is no ability on the part of the

River, stages carrying malls and pas.seugers
at regular interval^ through tluir country,
and their old trail appropriated as a hal)-
itual thoroughfare of transportation, it is
not surprising that th'-y uiv iK'coming ap-
pn^hensive that a title to tin' Red River
and the adjoining land.> i.> .-.leadily growing
up iigaiust them, aiul that the jjrairies anil
hunting grounds of their dusky anU^stors
svill be approjiriated by the aggi-essive race
of pale faces without maliing compensation
tiieivfor. At length, detonnineil to use
force or intimidatiou, a body of them came
upon the steamer North Star at i'embina,
anp demanded forty thousaml dollars or an
interest in the profits of the boat in de-
fault of which, they thn-atened to destroy
the boat atid cargo. The persons in charge
finally bought otl' the party with three
hundred dollars worth of gooils, upon the
agreement, however, that some permanent
arrangement should be miide for the fu-
tur^'.

The boats and a large amount of valua-
ble stores and goods, in transitu, have been
lodged for theViuter ut Georgetown, and,
as tliere wa.s some apprehension e.xpressed
by owners and residents that durmg the
winter this property might be destroyed,
and the remote settlers in that quarter mo-
lebted, I deemed it prudent in aaswer to a
request from the Superintendent of Indian
Afiairs, to direct Col. Sanborn, of the 4th
Volunteer Infantrj-. to detail one of his
companies, if necessarj', to quarter at fiat
place during the winter.

.VKCESSnV OF A TREATY.

As this trade with Britisli America is
assuming large and rapidly augmenting
proportions, while the mail and passengers
destined for the posts and settlements in
that immense region are now carried e.xclu-
sively by this route, it ha^i become a matter
of international importance that the route
should be kept fnn' from molestation. It
concerns the dignity an<l honor of the Gov-
ernment that we should ever be able to give
safe conduct to the persons and goods of
British subjects througii American territo-
ry, and it would be a disgrace, of national
proportions, if harm should come to the life
or property of those engaged in this com
merce from any inattention to the supposed
rights of these savages.

-V treat}' for the purchase uf their lands
ha.s become an urgent necessity, and I have
no question that it may be elfocted upon
very reasonable terms. I have addressed
a representation upon this subject to the
President

ilow far it may be within the ability of
the several Governments, at this time, to
consider the intel^•sts of our i-emole fron-
tier, it is difficult to judge. But while it
would ill become us to be unnecessarily
importunate in view of the great and ab-
sorbing issues that are engaging their en-
ergies, it would be well for the Legislature
to memorialize Congre.^s on the subject
asking at least for some measures that will
satisfy the Indians owning the valley of the
Red River, and give security to trade and
travel along that route into the British set-
tlements upon our bonier, either by treaty
for their lands, or at least for a right ot
way through them. An appropriation of
fifty thousand dollars was made by a recent
Congress for the construction of a fort
near the international boundary. In view
of more than one possible contingency, it
might be well to suggest to the Govern-
ment as a measure of prudent foresight
the propriety of entering upon this work at
an early day. If happily no events should
occur to test ita importance in case of a
foreign war, it would give great confidence

State to coastraict these road.s and in new _ w^^ ^j;=^ settlements that are extending in
of the tact that the grant will be entirely] - . . - . c

lost in a few years
cuted. 1 can see no

tial re-enactment of the Legislation of la.st
winter in the case of each road, giving to
paities who may be willing to undertake
their construction, the opportunity for an-
other year to do so, upon a deposit as be-
fore of a pecuniary guarantee of their sin-
cerity. In this connection I would renew
the suggestion made in my annual message
of 1861:

" In any legislation regarding the trans-
" fer of our Railroad lands, 1 desire your
** attention to be directed to the claims of
" certain settlers thereon prior to their loca-
• tion by the late Companies, whoae rights
" have reverted to the State from their ina-
" bility to pay for their claims at the recent
•* land sales. The enforcement of our strict-
" ly legal rights in-the premises, will work
•• great hardship to a worthy and industri-
" ous cla.ss of citizens and sully the honor
•* of the State by an act of flagrant injus-
" tice. You shonld therefore extend to
" them every protection compatible with
" the interests of the State."

While there is not much to encourage
the hope that at the present time ajiything
considerable wiU be attempted towards the
construction of these roads, which all ad-
mit are essential to the development of an
extensive territory, and the prosperity of
our people, no obstacle should be placed
in the way of those whose far-seeing enter-
prise may induce them to undertake even a
gmall part of these improvements now, with
a view to their eventual accomplishments
when that '■ better day" comes, which, from
our unrivalled advantages we have a right
to anticipate.

"OUR INDIAN EELATIO.NS."

The Aborigmes within our borders, the
Dakotas, Chippewas and Wiunebagos, a
people whose history- and destiny can never
De without interest to those who have suc-
ceeded to their ancient homes in the broad
plains and forests of Minnesota, have given
us, during the past year, no more than the
ordinary amount of care. Many were un-
der the impression that as the minds of the
feouthwestem Indians had been poi.soaed
against the Government the tribes of the
Northwestesn might be more or less disaf-
fected; but .so far as I have been able to
discover they have pres-erved an unabated
loyalty to the Government

Our southwestern counties have indeed
complained of troubles occasioned by rov-
ing and predatory bands of Sioux, not af-
fected, however, by political cau.ses, but by
the ordinary motives that actuate parties of
these tribes. Arms and blankets were fur-
nished the people in Jackson county, who,
no doubt recollecting the sad afiair at
Spirit Lake ip 1857, had their apprehen-
Bioua of a similar disturbance excited by
the presence of these vagrant parties of
Sioux. Subsequently, at my request Capt
Western, of the Second Minnesota Voluu-
toers, repaired with his company to that
part of the country, and remained there
iome weeks. No Indians were discovered,
and, ao far, nothing has occurred to disturb
the peace of that portion of the frontier.

the subject} of that power in the north is
now transmitted almost e.^clusively by the
mail route through this State, it- would
seem proper to grant it every reasonable
facility in our power. With this view, and
for the accommodation of our own growing
Rettlements ii^that direction, an increase ot
mail facilities to the Red River country
should be urged upon the Government

I have so often- heretofore expressed my
conviction of the prospective importance ot
this part of the State, a id that opinion has
been so amply confirmed by events, that I
do not feel ciUied upon to urge it more at
length on this occasion.

ELECTION LAWS.

I have received the notification of the
Secretary of the Interior, dated July 9th,
1861, certifying in pursuance of the Act of
Congress, of the 23d of May. 1850, " that
the State of Minnesota is entitled to one
member of the House of Representatives
for the Thirty-eighth Congress, and until
another apportionment sh-all be made ac-
cording to law." I am not aware that the
statutes relating to elections require any
modification in consequence of this reduc-
tion of our Representation in Congress.

Recent expfcrience has devRloped an ob-
vious error in our election law which calls
for your attention. Fifteen days notice on
the part of election officers is required to
be given before any general election, stat-
ing the officers to be elected. The law also
makes provision for special elections to fill
vacancies, the Aijiie thei-eof to be desig-
nated by the proclamation of the Govecnor,
providing, however, that if the vacancy oc-
curs before the general election, it is to be
filled at that election.

Obviously a vacancy may occur before a
general election, but after the fifteen days
notice have been given, and it would he
therefore impossible to comply with the
first of these provisions. Furthermore,
even if notice may be diaregardeil, the law
implies the dangerous absurdity, that if the
incumbent of an office should die or resign,
the day before the election, the office mui?t
be filled the next day, when, of course, the
knowledge of his death must be confined to
the immediate neighborhood of his resi-
dence. As the law applies to membere of
Congre.ss as well as members of the State
Legislature, it is easy to perceive the evils
to which it might lead. A vacancy occur-
ring within til'teen days of a general elec-
tion should be filled at a special elwtion.

REr)E.VIPTIO.V OF OOVERNME.N'T LANDS.

Appreciating the difficulty which pre-
emptors would have in meeting their pay-
ments iu October and December, 1861, as
in strict law was required, I appealed to the
aothorities at Washington that a longer in-
dulgence might be extended to thorn, until
more au.spiciou;s times should enable them
to discharge the small money obligations en-
uring to the Government, and thus secure
to numbers of needy men, women and chil-
dren the homes for which, in mo.^t in-
stances, they have long and laboriously
struggled with the diflRculties of the timea

I regretted to learn that under the law
the Executive Departments were incompe-
tent to extend this relief. As the Govern-
ment would gain comparatively nothing by
allowing these people to be disposi'essed,
while they would suffer great and needless
distress, I pray you to appeal to Congress
in their behalf.

The Chippewas of Red Lake and Pem-
bina have occasioned some anxiety to the
Stage and Express Company, and others
carrying on a trade with and transporting

foods into the British settlements on Red
Liver. These Indians, the most needy of
any of the bauds of the North, have for
years been encouraged in the expectation
of a treaty with the Government, from
which, in their simplicity, they doubtless
•aticip&ted inuneoseb refits, do &r, from a
Tuvsty. Qfjoatu^ tkeir.bopw have bMn

State of our day affonls to their unfort unati's,

Mn.ITARV AJTAIRS.

Tlic very full, detailed, and inU-n'sting ro-
port of the Adjutant Genend will ofcour.se
nx'.eive a prouiineut share of your atten-

tioit

The puI>lieation of the ndls of the gal-
lant nil II. wlio for the first time in the histo-
ry of Minnesota, were called upon to cross
the border in defence of the common weal,
is a ju>t tril)ute to their valor and patriot-
ism, and will, in after times, be cherished by
the millions who shall inherit these broad
lands, as the roll of her primitive heroes.
The names embhizoned thei-e will furnish
the theme of many a story, of patriotic dar-
ing and heroic adventuit-, in after times;
and futuT-e generations will be as proud to
trace their lineage to these soldiers of the
Union, as are we to the heroes of the Rev-
olution.

^V'lien the infamous attack upon Fort
Smuter occut-red in April, 1861, I was in
the city of Wa.shington, on bmsiness con-
nected with the State, and at once called
upon the Secretary of War, in company
with two of our fellow citiiiens in official
station, and tendered one thousand men to
the Government on the psyrlPiC Minnesota.

WHY THE STATE WAS NOT M^^BSSLV PLC .VG-
ED DfTO DBBT ON XBK 4(Jt'TBREAK OF THE
WAR, AS DK.MA.\DED BY THE PIONEER.

I am proud to know, that..*his was the
first tender of troops made to the President
I explained to the Secretary that, our Leg-
islature would not meet until January. 1862,
unless called in special session, and that in
the embarrassed condition of our finmices,
it would facilitate the organization of our
contingent, if he would, in the meantime,
furnish the necessary clothes, arms, equip-
ments, kc, which he at once agreed to. It
would, perhaps, have been more gratiiying
to our pride, if the State had been able,
like its older and wealthier sisters, to have
advanced the fiuiu required for this purpose.
But as it is the unifonn practice of the gen-
eral Government to meet all the expenses
of the truops called into the service, such
tejiders.of pecuniary aid are merely in the
nature of temponuy loans, to bo c^iIabursed
from the Federal Treasury, '^mxy of the
States, ha\'ing' full treasuries and abundant
credit promptly advanced the necessary
funds to place their troops in the 'fi«ld, and
have since been partially, or wholly, repaid.
For the timely aid thus given to the de-
pleted Treasury of the nation, these states
deserve the thanks of our countrymen eve-
rywhere.

But it would have been folly for a State
like ours, with a barren treasury, to have
emulated the example of New York or
Pennsylvania. If the Legislature had
b(^u convoked in extra sessiaa for this
purpose, the required sum could only have
been raised by the issue of bonds or treas-
ury warrants, at a great sacrifioe: and, with-
out resulting in any substantral benefit to
the Government would have entailed a
large addition to our own embarrassments.

I hope that so long as the sacred trust
of caring for the intei-ests of the people is
confided to my hands, I shall never be
guilty of adding to their burthens for the
mere eclat of an empty display. ^

THE VOLUNTEERS OF MI.N'XESOTA.

Minnesota's quota of the half a million
men authorized to be raised for the war, is
four thousand one hundred and eighty men.
Her actual contributions have already ex-
ceeded this by five hundred men, and, be-
fore the opening of navigation in the
spring, her volunteers will number fifteen
hundred men in excess, or our proportion
of an army of seven hundred thousand
men.

In addition to one regiment of three

obviate the necessity of any large appropria-
tion for military purposes. NevertheliMs,
iu view of pos.sible contingencie.-;, and to
avoid the necessity and expense which
might otherwise ai'ise of a special session.
I would advi.se the appropriation of some
ten thousand dollars, the expenditure of
which may be placed under the supervision
of a Board consisting, perhaps, of three of
the State officers.

RESPECT TO OLTl DEAD SOLDIERS.

I have, by circular letter.s, taken pains "o
impre.s8 upon the chaplains of our rej.;i-
nients the propriety of designating the b a-
rial places of such of our bruN'e soldiers iB-
may fall upon the battle-field or die from
ordinaiy disea.ses, in order that the State .ji*
their relatives may, at the proper, tiipe,
bring home the sacred relics of their hon-
ored dead, to find a resting pkce amid fit-
ting memorials of private afFectiony ai d
public gratitude, in the bosom of a State
which will never cease to cherish their
ashes and to revere their memories.

CARE FOR DISfHAROED .SOLDIERS.

I have likewise desired the Chaplains to
provide for the necessities of such of oar
men as may be discharged and desire to re-
turn home without the means of doing fO,
giving the assiu-ance that the State will de-
fray the expenses of their homeward trav.d.
Our very worthy Treasurer has been en-
trusted with the mission of procuring from
our volunteers an allotment of a {iortion (>f
their pay for the subsistence of their fami-
lies at home, und it is believed that our Siil-
diers, who are iuttilUgent and l)enevolent
as they are brave and patriotic, are gener-
ally availing them3elYe3 of this means of
providing for their fiuends. I am not aware
that any legi.'^lation is necessary to give
greater efficiency to this system. It would
be well here, as' in other States, to ma if
some discrimination in
civil process in favor

On to the people of Minnesota. In my
K.veeutive communications tluring the Ter-
ritorial jieriod, ii 111 since the orjianizalion
of tlio State, I have often enlarged upon
the community of interests between Minne-
.sota and our ni'ighljors. of British origin
and coime<aion, cordially anticipating no
possible interrnption to our interchange of
good offices and tVit'iidly seutiineni-. On
one Mibject only we have been coii.<cious of
meriting the rebuk<' of the kindi-ed commu-
nities on both continents, who s]>eak the
EnglLsh tongue. On the rtul)jeet of .slavery,
itself inflicted upon the Western world by
the unscrupulous greed of British merchants
— we have admitted the full extent of our
national misfortune and crime. Had we
not reason to expect, under the circumstin-
ces, when the Repulilic w as rent and torn
by the struggles of the intinster, slaver}-,
that England, claiming to be the exemplar
and friend of Emancipation, would at least
have imituttHi the Ijpvite of the parable
and pa.ssed l»y on the other side. Not so,
however. Withindecent haste the rights of
a belligerent power were conceded to an in-
surrection, whose leading idea is slaverv-,
and who.se success would be the bloody
restoration of the slave trade over tropical
America: and it needed not the late explo-
sion of English hostility and prejudice, to
convince the world that no considerations
of humanity, and civilization can turn the
scale of Great Britain's hatred of republi-
can institutions or her sordid devotion at
the shrine of Mammon. Nations alien to
us in blood, in lang-uage, in institutions, ob-
serve a just and honorable neutrality. Our
conspicuous enemy in Europe i.s that power
with whom we had credulously hoped to
co^pei"ate in every stage of the long sti'ug-
gl#between freedom and oppression.

I do not choose to anticipate future com-
plications with Great Britain. Let us rath-
er turn every thought and energy to the
great duty enjoined by Providence upon
this generation, namely: to establish if nec-
essary, by exertions and sacrifices such as
oiu- fathei-s accepted iu 1776 and 1812, tlie
Republic, one and indivisible. Let us
save our children, and children's children.

In all four thousand four hundred men.
The Fifth Regiment is in process of forma-
tion, and will doubtless be ready to march
South as early as the opening of navigation.
A second battery of Artillery is also in
progress.

Much difficulty was experienced by the
Adjutant General acting
in furnishing the First
early in the season. The
and an immediate supply of blankets add
other articles was necessary. Compelled^
seek these withont funds in a very restrict-
ed mai'ket, he did the best that seemed
possible under the circumstances. But for
the energy and activity of this officer, the
difficulties connected with this early organi-
zation would have been most discouraging
to all concerned, and it is but one of the
misfortunes of public place that hi* effi^rts
in this behalf, which entitled him to com-
mendation, should have furnLshed the occa-
sion of unmerited abuse.

The. First Regiment was ordered to
AVashington in the latter part of June, and
a month afterward took a part in the van
of the memorable conflict at Mxinassas.
How well and gallantly they deported them-
selves, on that disastrous occasion, how
gloriou.sly they bore the bullet-riddled ban-
ner of Minnesota through the fearful vicis-
situde of that bloody day, impartial history
will ever testify.

The Second, Third and Fourth Regi-
ments are also full and have been in ser-
vice. The Second and Third in Kentucky,
and the Fourth, so far, in manning the
several frontier forts Of Minnesota and Da-
kota.

Our Xavalrj- and Artillery ai-e iu Mis-
souri.

The number of ari»ed men contributed
by this young State in 1861, to the com-
mon defense, is greater than her entire pop-
ulation in 18.')0, will be suggestive to every-
one, of the beneficence of that Govarnment
under which such astounding progre.ss is
not merely possible but habitual, and re-
bukes, more than words, the sacriligeous
attempt to destroy a Government fraught
with such rich blessings.

The compensation of the Adjutant Gen-
eral now established by law is but two hun-
dred dollars. As his time since the 20th
of April, until the 1st instant, has been de-
voted in a great degree to the duties of his
office, it will be but ju-st to him that addi-
tional compensation should be allowed him,
with a reasonable sum for clerk hire, and
the incidental expenses of his office.

As it is probable that during the current
year the official duties of the Adjutant
(General will engage his whole time, I trust
that an adeciuate salary will be provided
for him, witii an appropriation for the inci-
dental expenses of his office.

of their projicrty interests at home.

.MILITIA LAW.

I would especially invite your attwotion
to a remodelling of the present Militia law.
it was conceived in a time of peace, and is
full of redundant and cumbersome provis-
ions, entirely uusuited to an exigency wh?n
real active, energetic conduct is requirtd.
The scheme of a law subraittetl, by the Ad-
jutant General will, I trust, rccer\'e yom-
careful consideration.

TUE GREAT REBELLION — VIGOROUS MEASURES
KEQUIKfiD.

One year ago it became my duty to ex-
press the public sentiment of Minnesota, in
reprobation of certain insurrectional- y
mo\ements in Southern States, for whi ;h
the result of the last Presidential election
was the mo.st unwarrantable pretext. The
American people generously believing that
these unconstitutional movements would be
relinquished, when the excitement of tbe
canvass of 1860 had .subsided, and the
policy of the President elect should becone
apparent were slow to assume the armor
and attitude necessary for the suppression
of rel)ellion. This -circumstance, the "high-
est evidence ot* the just and frattniial senti-
ments of the Northern people, gave to the
war, since waged against the integrity of
the American Union, an immense advantage
and has hitherto constituted ijls chef
strength. Even after the attack upon Fort
Sumter, notwitlistanding the great transfor-
mation of the loyal States from the hab its
and pursuits of peace, to those of war, the
public mind has reluctantly yielded to the
conviction that an insurrection so wanton
and groundless, could become a formidable
rebellion- It has reqaii*ed six months to
array an army for the vindication of the
Coukitution, and that entire period has
been essential to bring the American peo-
ple to the .stern and uncompromtsing tt.'tn-
per which the crisis dcmau'ls. llencefori,
ail that the laws of war will justify against
a foreign foe, and all that the first law of
nature warrants for the subjugation of do-
mestic treason, even if necessary to the
extinction of human slavery, the undoubted
osose of all our troubles, must be made to

II upon the crime and the cri.niDals of this

the operations of < ^rom innumerable wars with the worst des-
potism known totuinan hi.story, by the to-
tal subjugat?bb of the oligarchy which has
precipitated this struggle; and by a victory
of the American Nation over slavery and
treason, we shall se(;ure a fresh consecra-
tion of the soil long since dedicated by our
father's God to the rights of taau. This
accomplished we shall have ample means
and opportunities to discharge all our obli-
gations, including every just retribution as
a member of the family of nations.

DE.MANDs ENEEGETIC ACTION.

When I made the tender before mention-
ed, in April, the Government regarded a
thonaand men as onr full conlribution of
troops for the National defence, but within
the year this State has respomled to the
'■^all of the country by the muster and array
of about five times that number. These
five thousand soldiers have been turned a.s'ide
from their self-assign6d and noble mission
of founding and developing a great Stat^.
Minnesota sends them far beyond her bi>r-
dera, with an emotion deeper than pride.
They are our most precious contribution
to a war which we hold sacred, and removed
a^i we are from any contingent benefits -e-
sulting from its prosecution, we freely make
this sacrifice, as we hope to make all others
which may be required. All that the peo-
ple of Minnesota, or their representatives,
will ask in return, is, that the awful form of
the Constitution -shidl now be revealed to
vindicate the flag and Union of our fathers
against the parricidal hand of treason at
home, and against any Government on eaKh
which shall take advantage of this hour of
our extremity to strike a coward blow at
our National honor and existence. 1 tj-ast
that the impatience of our people will <50on
be gratified by such an exhibition of Na^
tional power, as will bring this rebellion to
a .speedy conclusion and vindicate the dig-
nity of the Government before the nations
of the world.

CO.NFISCATION OF SLAVES AND OTIIEK PR5P-
EBTY OP REBELS.

In this connection, I deem it appropriate-
to refer to a specific topic. Severe meas-
ures are in course of e-xecution by the rob-
els again-^t the Union men of the South,
and the property of all who are residents
of the loyal States. Tho opinion is njw
general, that further forbearance by Con-
gress in regard to the property of rebels,
wiU be the reverse of a virtue. Individuals
who are openly in arms against the Uni :ed
States, have large interests in Minnesota,
and I iJeel well assured that a general Con-
fiscation Act now so distinctly demanc.ed
by public sentiment will be speedily passed,
BO framed as to furnish adequate agencies
for the 8e(iuestration of all the property of
rebels, wherever situated, including t,he
eafraacbisemeut of slaves. Such a meas-
ure will be regarded as in the nature of a
compensation, however partial and inade-
quate, for the pecuniary contributions which
every citizen expects to make to the resto-
ration of National authority.

As n m!'a-^iir»> of n'triMioluiu'iit. mail*' no-
c«>dsary by tb»' i'irciim.stan<'es of tlu' tiinos,
1 rtJOomuKMul the siispeiisioii. for two or
tlu-ee year':, of tho art makmir au annual
appropriation to the llistorii;il Soeiety of
Minnesota. This Society. incorporattHl in
1849, is the olde.st literary anil scientifie
orgaaizatiou in the 8tate, and has be^-n
fostered by a small appropriation, a- sim-
ilar societies have bivu by Wisconsin and
lowiL To its silent and unobtrusive la-
bors we ari' indebteil for the i-escue from
oblivion o( many etirions anil romaiilir iu-
cidenti iu the early history of this n^yiou,
that will be prized by tb« future historian.
For two or three years the soeiety, appre-
euitiujf the tiuaurial pix'ssnrt- upon our
people, voluntarily Ibrliore a-kinsj their an-
muil appropriation; but last year they in-
cun-e«l t'ipoiise in tlie publication of " Major
Long's canoe voyajr-^ to the Falls of St,
Autnony," which wa.s distriViuted to the
members of the Legislature and others. I
woald therefore i-ecommond that, in sus-
peuibug the annual appropriation, provi-
siion be made for that due to last year, to
enable the Society to honestly dischart^e
tiitt oblitiations incurn>d by virtue of the
existing act.

I.VNP GRANT RULROAD.S.

By several act.> of the last sestiion. cer-
t.un parties or companies weiv authorized
upon certain conditions to construct .-iover-
a ly the Minnesota and Pacific, the Cedar
Vailey, the Transit ami the Snuthoru Min-
nesota llailroads. And for this purpose
t'jey were to be invested, as con.slruction
advanced, with all the lands, properties and
franchises to which the State had previous-
ly become entitled by forfeiture and pur-
chase npon foreclosure, and they v\ere re-
quired to deposit with the Governor the
gam of ten thousand dollars as a guai-autee
of good fttith, to be forfeited in ca.^e of a
aan-falfillmeut of their obligations. These
measures have resulted iu uo advance of
these desirable improvement.'!!, and the uwn-
erihip of all remains in the .State. The
breakia;^' out of the war ha.s ellectually sus-
T>?nded all enterprises of this nature, and it
is tliei"cfpiv not surprising that the con-
Bin3.ction of these roads was not even at-
t-impted. except in the ca,se of the Minne-
•iota and Pacific. In this case the Compa-
ay paid the State Treasurer the amount of
legal costs and e.t penses incurred by the
State in the foreclosure and sale of the said
road, and deposited with the Governor on
the 2oth of .lune, thirteen Ohio Union Loan
Bords, amounting iu the ugyregate at 90
cent-i to .37,200, and three State of Minne-
sota Interest Warrants of one thousand
dollars each. This sum so deposited agree-
ai'.ly to the fourth section of the '• act to
facilitate the construction of the Minnesota
and Pacific Railroad," has lieen absolutely
forfeited to the State, in consequence of the
failufe of said Company to construct the
said road from St. I'aul to St. Anthony,
on or before the 1st of January, 1862.

Whether, under the peculiar circumstan-
ces of the case, the State shall retain the
, forfeited property, rests with you to deter-
mine; and in that case it will be your duty
to direct how and by whom these stocks
shall be disposed of for the benefit of the
State.

As there is uo ability on the part of the
State to construct these roads, and in new
of ihe fact that the grant will be entirely,'
lost iu a few years unless the work is proe^fe- '
cut'id. I can see no objection to a substan-
tial re-enactment of the Legislation of la.st
winter iu the case of each road, giving to
paities who may be willing to undertake
their construction, the opportunity for an-
other year to do so, upon a deposit as be-
fore of a pecuniary guanuitce of their sin-
cerity. In this connection I would renew
the suggestion made iu my annual message
of 1861:

" In any legislation regarding the trans-
" fer of our Kailroatl lands, 1 desire your
"attention to be directed to the claims of
" certain settlers thereon prior to their loca-
" tion by the late Companies, whose rights
" have reverted to the State from their ina-
" bility to pay for their claims at the recent
"land' sales. The enforcoment of our strict-
"ly legal rights in- the premises, will work
" great hardship to a worthy and industri-
" uus class of citizens and sully the honor
" of the State by an act of flagrant injus-
" tice. You shonld therefore e.xt^'ud to
"them every protection compatible with
" the interests of the State."

While there ia not much to encourage
the hope that at the present time anything
considerable will be attempted towards the
construction of these roails, which all ad-
mit are essential to the development of au
exteasive territory, and the prosfjerity of
our people, no obstacle should be placed
in the way of those whose far-seeing enter-
prise may induce them to undertake even a
small part of these improvements now, with
a view to their eventual accomplishments
when that "better day" comes, which, from
our unrivalled advantages we have a right
to anticipate.

•' OCR I.NDIAN EELATIOXS."

Tbe Aborigines within our borders, the
Dakotaa, Chippewas and Wiunebagos, a
people who.se history and destiny can never
be without interest to those who have suc-
c«ededto their ancient homes in the bfoad
plains and forests of Minnesota, have given
U9, during the past year, no more than the
ordinary amount of care. Many were un-
der the impression that as the uiinds of the
Southwestern Indians had been poi.soned
against the Government, the tribes of the
Noithwestesn might be more or less disaf-
fected; but so far as I have been able to
discover they have preserved an unabated
loyalty to the Government

Our southwestern counties have indeed
coraplainetl of troubles occasioned by rov-
ing and predatory bands of Sioux, not af-
fected, however, by political cau.ses, but by
the ordinary motives that actuate parties of
these tribes. Arms and blankets were fur-
nished the people in Jackson county, who,
no doubt, recollecting the sad affair at
Spirit Lake ip 1857, had their apprehen-
BJous of a bimilai' disturbance excited by
the presence of these vagrant parties of
Sioux. Subsequently, at my request, Capt.
Western, of the Second Minnesota Volun-
toera, repaired with his company to that
part of the country, and remained there
tome weeks. Xo Indians were discovered,
and, so far, nothing has occurred to disturb
the peace of that portion of the frontier.

TROUBLE WITU ClUPPEWAS.

The Chippewas of Red Lake and Pem-
biija have occa.sioned some anxiety to the
Btage and E.\press Company, and others
carrying on a trade with and transporting
oods into the British settlements on Red
iver. These Indians, the most needy of
any of the bauds of the North, have for
years been encouraged in the expectation
of a treaty with the Government, from
which, in their simplicity, they doubtless
anticipated immense benefits. So far, from a
rariety of cans^s, their hopes have been
diaappolnted, ami, seemg the steamtri of
tke Company rtgolarlj plying upga Bed

Kiv<r, stages earning mails antl pas.seng«'rs |
at ivgular interval.- through thi'ir country,
and their old trail ajtproprialed a.- a hab.

not surprising that th'-y aiv becoming ap-
pn'heiLsive that u title tc tli<" lied River

up against tln'm, and llmt the prairies ami
hnntmi: grounds of their dusky antestors
will be approjtriated by the ugintssive race
of pale faces without making compensation
therefor. At length, detenuined to u.-^e
force or intimidation, a body of them came
upon the steamer North Star ut I'embina,
anp demanded forty thousand dollars or an
interest in the profits of the boat, in de-
fault of which, they thn-atened to destroy
the lioat anil cargi>. Th.- persons in charge
fimUly bought otf the part\ with three
hundred liollars worth of gooils, upon the
agreement, however, that some permanent
arrangeni'-nt should be msde for the fu-
tur«'.

The boats and a largi' amount of valua-
ble stores and goods, in transitu, have been
lodged for the winter at Georgetown, and,
as there was -iome anpivhension e.\presseil
by owners and residents that during the
winter thi.-> property might be destroyed,
and the remote settler> in that quarter mo-
lested, I deemed it i)rudent, in answer to a
request from the Superintendent of Indian
Affairs, to direct Col. Sanborn, of the 4th
Volunteer Infantry, to detail one of his
companies, if necessary, to quarter at that
j)lace daring the winter.

.VECESSnV OF A TRKATY.

As this trade with Britisli America is
assuming large and rapidly augmenting
proportions, while the mail and passengers
destined for the pust.- and .-jettlemente in
that immense region are now carried exclu-
sively by this route, it has become a matter
of international importance that the route
should be kept free from molestation. It
concerns the diguiiv un<l honor of the Gov-
ernmeut that we should ever be able to give
safe conduct to the persons and goods of
British subjects through American territo-
rv. and it would be a disgrace, of national
proportions, if harm should come to the lite
or properly of tho.-e engaged in this com-
merce from any inattention to the supposed
rights of these savages.

.V treaty for the {(urcliase of their lands
hiis become an urgent necessity, and I have
uo question that it may be ell'ected upon
very reasonable term*. I have addressed
a representation ujiou this subject to the
President

How far it may be within the ability of
the several Governments, at this time, to
consider the interests of our remote fron-
tier, it is dilficult to judge. But while it
would ill become us to be nnnece.ssarily
importunate in view of the gi-eat and ab-
sorbing issues that are engaging their en-
ergies, it would be well for the Legislature
to memorialize Congre.-s on the subject,
asking at least for some measures that will
satisfy the Indians owning the valley of the
Red River, and give security to trade and
travel along that route into the British set-
tlements upon our border, either Ijy treaty
for their lauds, or ut least for a right oi
way through them. Au approj^riation of
fifty thousand dollar.^ was made by a recent
Congress for the construction of a fort
near the international Ijouudary. In view
of more than one possible contingency, it
might be well to suggest to the (Govern-
ment, as a measure of prudent foresight,
the propriety of entering upon this work at
au early day. If happily no events should
occur to test its importance in case of a
foreign war, it would give great confidence
'to the settlements that are extending in
^hat«<ISrection, and .stimulate a trade that is
every day becoming more valuable.

Aa the British mail matter destined to
the subjects of that power in the north is
now transmitted almost exclusively by the
mail route through this State, it would,
seem j)roper to grant it every reasonable
facility in our power. With this view, and
for the accommodation of our own growing
Bottlements ii\ that direction, au increase ot
mail facilities to the Red River country
should be urged upon the Government

I have so often- heretofore expressed my
conviction of the prospective importance ol
this part of the State, a id that opinion has
been so amply confirmed by events, that I
do not feel called upon to urge it more at
this occasion.

KLECTION LAWS.

I have received the notification of the
Secretary of the Interior, dated July 9th.
1861, certifying in pursuance of the Act of
Congress, of the 23d of May, 1850, '-that
the State of Minnesota is entitled to one
member of the House of Representatives
for the Thirty-eighth Congress, and until
another apportionment .--hall be made ac-
cording to law." I am not aware that the
statutes relating to elections require any
modification in consequence of this reduc-
tion of our Representation iu Congress.

Recent experience has developed an ob-
vious error in our election law which calls
for your attention. Fifteen days notice on
the part of election officers is required to
be given before any general election, stat-
ing the officers to be elected. The law also
make-i provision for special eh.'ctious to fill
vaciincies, the ^ijiie thei-eof to be desig-
nated by thepfoclamation of the Govesnor,
providing, however, that if the vacancy oc-
curs before the general election, it is to be
filled at that election.

Obviously a vacancy may occur before a
general election, but after the fifteen days
notice have been given, and It would be
therefore impossible to comply with the
first of these provisions. Furthermore,
even if notice may be di^-egardetl, the law
implies the dangeron-^ali-mrdity, that if the
incuml^ent of an office should die or resign,
the day befoi-e the election, the office must
be filled the next day, when, of course, the
knowledge of his death mu.st be confined to
the immediate neighi»orhood of hid resi-
dence. As the law applies to members of
Congress as well as members of the State
Legislature, it is easy to perceive the evils
to which it might lead. A vacancy occar-
ring within fifteen days of a general elec-
tion .should be filled at a special election.

REDE.MPTIO.V OF OOVKRNME.N'T LA.N'DS.

Appreciating the difficulty which pre-
emptors would have in meeting their pay-
ments iu October and Decemt)er, 1861, as
in sti-ict law was required, I appealed to the
authorities at Wa.shingtoii that a long»ir in-
dulgence might bo extended to them, until
more auspicious times should enable them
to discharge the small money obligations en-
uring to tke Government, and thus secure
to numbers of needy men, women and chil-
dren the homes for which, in most in-
stances, they have long and laboriously
struggled with the difficulties of the times.

I regretted to learn that under the law
the E.\ecative Departments were incompe-
tent to extend this relief. As the Govern-
ment would gain comparatively nothing by
allowing these people to be dispossessed,
while they would suft'er great and needless
distress, I pray you to appeal to Congress
in their behalf.

DEAF AND D'lMB.

From researches recently made, i am led
to believe that there are about seventy-five
deaf mutes in the State. If you caa devise
aay plan for securing to them the benefits of
U»t ioitroctioa which arery ealighttoed

Slate of our day affords to their unfortannten,
1 shall be most happy to eo-operatJ' with
you.

MIl.ITAKV AKFAIHS.

The very full, detailed, aud inU-n'sting re*
port of the Ailjutant (ieneral will of cour.-<e
receivt." a prominent share t»f your atten-
tion.

The publication of the rolls of the tral-
lant nii-M, who for the first time in the histo-
ry of .Minnesota, were called ui»on to cross
the border in defence of the common weal,
is a ju.-,t triliute to their valor and patriot-
ism, luid will, in after times, lie cheri.shed by
the millions who shall inherit these broad
lands, as the roll of her j)rimitive heroes.
The names embli\2oned there will furnish
the theme of many a story, of patriotic dar-
ing and heroic lid venture, in after times;
and future generations will bo as proud to
trace their lineage to these soldiers of the
Union, as are we to the heroes of the Rev-
olution.

When the infamous attack upon Fort
Sumter oc-curred in April, 18G1, I was in
the city of AVa.shington, on business con-
nected with the State, and at once called
upon the Secretary of War. in company
with two of our fellow citizens in official
station, and tendered one thousand men to
the Government on the par^%f^ Miunesota.

WHY THE ST.iTE W.\8 NOT RlCKLESSLY PLUNG-
ED I.VTO DEBT ON TUE OITHREAK OF TUE
WAR, AS DEMANDED BV THE PIONEER.

I am prowl to know, that this was the
first tender of troops made to the President
I explained to the Secretary that our Leg-
islature would not meet until January. 1862,
unless called iu sjjecial session, and that in
the embarrassed condition of our finances,
it would facilitate the organization of our
contineent, if he would, in the meantime,
furnish tlie necessary clothes, arms, equip-
ment.-!, &c., which he at once agreed to. It
would, perhaps, have been more gratifying
to our pride, if the State had been able,
like its older aud wealthier sisters, to have
iulvauced the sum required for this purpo.se.
But as it is the uniform practice of the gen-
eral (rovernment to meet all the expenses
of the troops called into the .service, such
tender .s of pecuniary aid are merely iu the
nature of temponiiy loans, to bo reimbursed
from the Fedej-al Treasury. Many of the
States, having full treasuries and abundant
credit promptly advanced the necessary
funds to place their troops in the ti«ld, and
have since been partially, or wholly, repaid.
For the timely aid thus given to the de-
pleted Trea.snry of the nation, these .states
deserve the thanks of our countrymen eve-
rywhere.

But it would have been folly for a State
like ours, with a barren treasury, to have
emulated the example of New York or
Pennsylvania. If the Legislature had
been convoked in extra sessi»« for this
purpo.se, the required sum could only have
been raised by the issue of bonds or tretis-
ury warrants, at a great sacrifice ; and, with-
out residting in any substaaitial benefit to
the Government would have entailed a
large addition to our own embarras-sments.

I ho{K' that so long aa the sacred trust
of caring for the interests of the people is
confided to my hands, 1 .~haU never be
guilty of adding to their burthens for the
mere eclat of an empty display.

THE VOLLXTEERS OF MI.VNE.SOTA.

Minnesota's quota of the half a million
men authorized to be raised for the war, is
four thousand one hundred and eighty men.
Her actual contributions have already ex-
ceeded thi.s by five hundred men, and, be-

spring, her volunteers wUl number fifteen

obviate the necessity of any large appropria-
tion for military purposes. .Veverthole.s.^,

which maybe placed under the supervisioa
of a Board consisting, perhaps, uf thnv of
th<' State officei-s.

RESPECT TO OUR DEAD SOLDIERS.

I have, by circular Utter.s, taken pains to
impress upon the chaplains of our regi-
ments the propriety of de>ignating the bu-
riid places of such of our brii>'e .soldiers tf
may fall upon the battle-field or die from
ordinary diseases, in order that the .Stut*^ or
their relatives may, at the proper time,
bring home the sacred relics of their hon-
ored dead, to find a resting place amid fVr
ting memorials of private atTectiou.-r and
public gratitude, in the bosom of a State
which will never cease to cherish their
ashes and to revere their memories.

CARE FOR DISCHARGED .SOLDIERS.

I have likewi.<e desired the Chaplains to
provide for the necessities of such of our
men as may be discharged and desire to re-
turn home without the means of doing so,
giving the assurance thai the State will de-
fray the expenses of th'^ir homeward travel.
Our very worthy Treasurer has been en-
trusted with the mi.ssion of procuring from
our volunteers an allotment of a portion |>f
their pay for the subsistence of their fami-
lies at home, and it is believed that our sol-
dier.?, who are intelligent and benevolent
a^ they are brave and patiiotic, are gener-
ally 'xvailiujg themselves of this means of
providing for their fi-jends. 1 am not aware
that any legislation is iiece.ssary to give

THE GREAT REHEl.LIOX VlGOROl.'S MEASURIIs

REt^iUlKED.

One year ago it became my duty to ex-
press the public sentiment of .Minnesota, in
reprobation of certain insurrectionary
movements in Southern States, for which
the result of the last Presidential election
was the most unwarrantable pretext. The
American pe-ople generously believing that
these unconstitutional movements would be
relinquished, when the excitement of the
canvass of 1860 had .-ubsided. and the
policy of the Fresidi'ut elect shoukl become
apparent, were slow to assume the armor
and attitude necessary for the suppres^icu
uf rebellion. This circumstance, theliigh-
e.st evidence ot* the just aud fraUM-iial .senti-
ments of the Northern peopl<'. gave to the
war, since waged against the integrity of
the American Union, an immense advantage
and has hitherto constituted its chief
.strcnqrth. F>ven after the attack upon Fort
Sumter, notwithstanding the great transfor-
mation of the loyal Statt>s from the habits
and pursuits of peace, to those of war, the
public mind has reluctantly yielded to the
conviction that an insurrection so waut(»n
and groundless, could become a formidaljle
rebellion. It has required six mopth> '^o
array an sirmy for the vindication of tlie
Constitution, and that entire period has
been es.-jontial to bring the American peo-
ple to the stern and unconipromising tem-
per which the crisis dcmtiu-I-^. llenc^fortb,
all that the laws of war will justify against
a foreign foe, and all that the first law of
nature warrants for the subjugation of do-
mestic treason, even if necessary to the
extinction of human slavery, the undoubt'.'d
oeuse of all our troubles, must be made to
GbU upon tbe crime and the cri.uinals of this

manifestetl by Great Britain towards the
United Stat4'.^:. I'erhaps to uo American
coininunity is tlie ungemMous and unjust
Itfuring of the Fingli.sh pn-s-s (and 1 am
forced to add), of the majority of the Kng-
lish peo|iIi', so unwelcome und une.xpectwl
at* to the people of Miniif.^ota. In ray
Kxi'i'iitive tomimmications during ilii- Tei-
riturial |»eii.id. an«i ^ine»! ihe urganization
of tlio State, 1 have often enlarged upon
the community of interests between Minne-
sota and onr iH'iirhltors. of British origin
and conne<'tion, c<irdially anticipating no
possible interruption to our interchange of
good offi(.'es and friendly sentiments. Ou
om- .-abject only we have been conscious of
meriting the rebuke of the kindred commu-
nities on l>oth continents, who sjx-ak the
English tongue. On thesuttject of .slavery,
it-'-lf inflicted upon the Wesb^-n world by
thf un.scrupulous gTced of Briti.-^h merchants
— \M' havt' admitted the full extent of our
national misfortune aud crime. Had we
not reason to expect, under the circumstan-
ces, when the Republic v\as rent and torn
by the struggle.s of the monster, slavery,
that lOnglaiKl, daimimr to be the exemplar
and friend of Kmancipation, would at least
have imiiutwl (he J/^vite of tht^ parable
and passed l)y on the other side. Not so,
however. Withindecent haste the rights of
a belligtirent power were conceded to an in-
surrection, whose leading idea is slaver}-,
and who.se success would be the bloody
re.->toration of the slave trade over tropical
America: and it needed not the late e.xplo-
sion of English host'.lity and prejudice, to
convince the world that uo considerations
of humanity, and civilization can turn the
scale of Great Britain's hatred of republi-
can institutions or her sordid devotion at
the shrine of Mammon. Nations alien to
us in blood, in language, in institutions, ob-
serve a just and honorable neutrality. Our
conspicuous enemy in Europt^ is that power
with whom we had credulon.sly hoi)ed to
co-operate in every stage of the long sti'ug- I
gl^between freedom and oppression. |

I do not choose to anticipati^ future com- :
plications with Great Britain. Let us rath- I
er turn every thought and eneigy to the j
great duty enjoined by Providence upon \
this generation, namely: to establish if nee- |
essai-y, by exertions aud sacrifices such as
our fathei-s accept sd in 1776 aud 1812, the
Republic, one and indivisible. Let us
save our children, and children's chiklren,

and an immediate supply of blankets and
other articles was necessary. Compelled lb
seek these without funds in a very restrict-
ed mai-ket, he did the best that seemed
possible under the circumstances. But for
the energy aud activity of this officer, the
ditficulties connected with this early organi-
zation would have been most discouraging
t(i all concenied. and it is but one of the
misfortunes of public place that his efi'orts
in this behalf, which entitled him to com-
mendation, should have furnished the occa-
sion of unmerited abuse.

The. First Regiment was ordered to
Washington in the latter part of June, and
a month afterward took a part in the van
of tbe memorable conflict at Mana.ssas.
Mow well and gallantly they deported them-
selves, on that disastrous occasion, how
gloriously they bore the bnllet^riddled ban-
ner of Minnesota through the fearful vicis-
situde of that bloody day, impartial history
will ever testify.

The Second, Third aud Fourth Regi-
ments are also full and have been in ser-
vice. The Second and Third in Kentucky,
and the Fourth, so far, in manning the
several frontier forts of Minnesota and Da-
kota.

Our Cavalry aud Artillery are iu Mis-
souri.

The number of armeii men contributed
by this voung State in Ib61, to the com-
inon defense, is greater than her entire pop-
ulation in 18.')0, will be suggestive to even,-
one, of the beneficence of that Govarument
under which such astounding progres,^ is
not merely possible but habitual, and re-
bukes, more than words, the sa<iriligeous
attempt to destroy a Government fraught
with such rich blessings.

The compensation of the Adjutant Gen-
eral now established by law is but two hun-
dred dollars. As his time since the 20th
of April, until the l.st instant, has been de-
voted in a great degree to the duties of his
office, it will be but just to him that addi-
tional comjjensatiou should be allowed him,
with a reasonable sum for clerk hire, and
the incidental expenses of his office.

As it is probable that during the current
year th j official duties of the Adjutant
General will engage his whole time. I trust
that an adequate salary will be provided
for him, with an appropriation for the inci-
dental expenses of his office.

When 1 made the tender befoi-e mention-
ed, iu April, the Government regarded a
thousand men as our full contribution of
troops for the National defence, but within
the year this State has responded to tlie
■^ali of the country by the muster and arruy
of about five times that number. Theje
five thousand soldiers have been turned aside
from their self-assignftd and uoble mission
of founding and developing a great Statjp,
Minnesota sends them far beyond her bc»r-
ders, with an emotion deeper than prit^e.
They are our most precious contril)nti<m
to a war wliich we hold saci-ed, aufl removed
as we are from any contingent benefits re-
sulting from its prosecution, we fi-eely make
this sacrifice, as we hope to make all others
which may be required. All that the peo-
ple of Minnesota, or their representatlve.s,
will iLsk in return, is, that the awful form of
the Constitution .shall uow be re\ealed 'X)
vindicate the flag and Union of our fathers
against the parricidal hand of treason nt
home, and against any Gi)verunient on earth
which shall take advantage of this hour of
our extremity to strike a coward blow at
our National honor and existence. 1 trust
that the impatience of our people will ^oon
be gratified by .such an exhibition of Na-
tional power, as will bring this rebellion to
a speedy conclusion and vindicate the dig-
nity of the Government tiefore the nations
of the world.

eONFISCATlO.V OF SLAVES .\NI> OTIIKK PROP-
ERTY OK RKBELS.

In this connection, I deem it appropriate
to refer to a si^ecific topic. Severe meas-
ures arc in course of execution l>y the reb-
els against the Union men of the South,
and the property of all who are residents
of the loyal Stales. The opinion is nttw
general, that further forl)carauce by Con-
gress in regard to the property of rebels,
will be the reverse of a virtue. Individuxls
who arc openly in arms against the United
States, have large interests in Minnesota,
aud 1 tecl weU assured that a general C»m-
fiscatiou Act, now so distinctly demaudid
by public seutiment, will he speedily passed,
so framed as to furnish adecjuate agencies
for the setiuestration of all the property of
i-ebel.H, wherever situated, including the
eufranchisemeut of slaves. Such a meas-
ure will be regarded as in the nature of a
compensation, however partial and inade-
quate, for the pecuniary contributions which
eveiy citizen expecto to make to the resto-
ration of National authority.

is Ir.'ig, but the important events o! the last
year, and the great responsibiiili':- oj the
future, deuianiKd uu extended survey. No

that **c shall take occasion ?o consider
iaore fully hereafter.

The priocipies of retroachment. economy
And honesty infused into oar public affairs
daring the last two years by the Republican
Administratiou, that now succeeds to an-
Olbfr term of oflBct?, ha^e borne their legiti-
mate fruit in a still further reduction of
Stale expense during the last year, even as
«»mpared with tho wonderful results of the
first year of Gov. Ramsey's official term

Notwithstanding the nnespecteii expenses
connected with Military affairs, and the
creation of new deparlraedis. the total ex-
pense lor 1661. to December Isi, W'TC bat
«7-l,758 97; again.-?t 895,269 98 in I860.

In the language of the message :

Two or three thousand dollars will cover the
«xpenditures chargeable to the remaining
month, 30 that notwithstanding the increased
scope and efficiency of the governmenial ma
chiuery by the creation of ilie School, State
Land and Statistical liureaus, » saving has
been ett'ected in the tivil list of about $22,0a0
and the cost of the State Government is now
about onethird of what it was in 1858.

In no direciion are the fruits of the policy of
retrenchment more conspicuous than in the
item of printing, which now amounts to but
one seventh of the sura expended for that
purpose m 1353 ; when, indeed, the printing
Dills largely exceeded the whole present cost
of the State Government.

The following passage alludes to a fact of
which every Minnesotian will cherish a
proud rem-mbrance, and vindicates most
completely the prudence and wisdom of the
Governor, and his fidelity to principles of
enlightened economy.

Wtien the infamous attack upon Fort Sum-
ter occurred iu April, 1S61, I was in the city
of Washington, on business connected with the
Slate, and at once called upon the Secretaiy
of War, in company with two of our fellow
citizens in otlicial station, and tendered one
thousand men to the Government on the part
of Minnesota.

I am proud to know, that this was the first
lender ortroop.>< made to the President. I ex-
piiined to the Secretary that our Legislature
yrould not meet until Januarv, 1S6"2, unless
i&iled in special session, and that in the em-
barrassed condition of our finances, it would
facilitate the organization of our contingent, if
he would, in the meantime, furnish the neces-
sary clothes, arms, equipments, &c., which he
at once agreed to. It would perhaps, have
been more gratifying to our pride, if the State
had been aljle, like its older and wealthier sis-
ters, to have advanced the sum required for
this purpose. IJut as it is the uniform prac-
tice of the general Government to meet all the
expenses of the troops called into the service,
such tenders of pecuniary aid are merely ia
the nature of temporary loans, to be reim-
bursed from the Federal Treasury. .Many of
the States, having full treasuries and abundant
credit, promptly a vanced th« necessary funds
to place their troops in the held, and have
since been partially, or wholly, repaid. For
the timely aid ttuis c;iven to the depleted
Treasury of the nation, these states deserve
the thanks of our countrymen everywhere.

But It would have been folly for a State like
ours, with a barren treasury, to have emulated
the example of New York or Pennsylvania.
If the Legislature had been convoked in ex^
tra session for this purpose, the required sum

iCOuld only have been raised by the issue of
bonds or treasury warrants, at a great sacrifice;
and, without resulting in any substantial ben
cfit to the Government, would have entailed a
large addition to our own embarrassments.

1 hope that, so long as the sacred truth of
caring for the interests of the people is confided
to my hands, 1 shall never be guilty of adding
to their burthens for the mere tclat of an
empty display.

Upon the subject of Railroad^!, af\er

litatiug the facts connected therewith, the

following is suggested as fo what should

be done ;

As there is no ability on the part of the State
to construct these roads, and in view of the
fact that the grant will be entirely lost in a few
years unless the work is prosecuted, I can see
no objection to a substantial re-enactment of
the L' gislation of last winter in the case of
each road, giving to parties who may be will-
ing to undertake their construction, the op-
portunity for another year to do so, upon a de-
posit as before of a pecuniary guarantee of
their sincerity.

In regard to the brave men contributed
by Minnesota for the crashing of the rebel-
lion, and what Minnesota expects of those
charged with the conduct ot th-^ war, Gov-
ernor Ramsey says :

When I made the tender before mentioned,
in April, the Government regarded a thousand
men as our full contribution of troops for the
National defense, but within the vear this
State has responded to the call of the country
by the muster and array of about five times
that number. These five thousand soldiers
have been turned aside from their self assign-
ed and noble mission of founding and develop-
ing a great State.

Minnesota sends them far beyond her borders
with an emotion deeper than pride. They are
our most precious contribution to a war which
we hold sacred, and removed as we are from
any contingent benefits resulting from its pros-
ecution, we freely make this sacitice, as we
hope to make all others which may be required. ,
All that the people of Minnesota, or their rep- j
resentntives, will ask in return, is, that the
awful form of the Constitution shall now be
revealed to vindicate the flag and Union of our
fathers against the parricidal hand of treason
at home, and against any Government on earth |
which shall take advantage of this hour of

The general verdict ir< that liOvejoy hail
the better of all bis antagonists in the de-
bate to day. The remarks of the Keutuck-
ians show a divided opinion among them,
p-rt perftrring to have the Union destroyed
ratht-r than slavery, and part holding the
opposite ground; Mr. Wickliffe in the form-
er category, and Mr. Mallory iu the latter.
Mr. Dunn, of Indiana, has completely gone
to the pro slavery side.

Michael Laoahan, hung to-day for murder,
was a private in Company A, 2d U. S. In-
fantry. The ovi'ence before the Court
Martial shows that he was a private of guard,
and on first relict", October 4th ; but was
not at hand when the time for posting guard
arrived. As Sergeaoi J.is. Brennan. in
command of the guard, was about posting
another iu his place, Lanaban appeared.
Tlie Sergeant turned sharply upon and
slapped liiin, saving he was never in his
place. A few mhiult'S ...ubsequently, as
Breunan was passing by bis po=;t, Lanahan
killed him The General Order confirming
the sentence, remarks that though it is very
reprehensible for officers to strike soldiers,
(except when absolutely necessary to repress
disorder, and never allowable as punishment)
yet, for a soldier, because of being struck,
to ahoot his immediate superior, is at war
with every principle of military subordina-
tion

The circumstances show that the priuouer,
having old scores with the sergeant, loaded
his musket >:>n purpose to shoot him The
execution took place half a mile from the
avenue, at li 30, in presence of 2.500 regu-
lar soldiers from different rtgiments oi icg«
ular infantry, who formed a hollow square
about th(! gallows, to which they escorted
the prisoner in u close carriage. ' lie only
said '-Good byt! Old .soldiers 1 Good bye!"
After prayers with the priest, the trap fell.
The corpso was confined, and carried to the
cemetery in an army wagon, in presence of
a thousand spectators, at 4 o'clock this after-
noon.

turing three hundred barrels of flour, 300

period has been essential to bring the Ameri
can people to the stern and uncompromising j
temper which the crisis demands. Ilcncefotth, j
nil that the laws of war will justify against a
foreign foe, and all that the first law of nature
warrants for the subjugation of domestic trea-
son, even if necessary to the extinction of
slavery, the undoubted cause of all our trou»
bles, must bo made to fall upon the crime and
the crlmiuals of thi infamous rebellion.

Of the treatment which our country has

received from England, the indignant senti

ments of our people arc litliugly expressed:

On one subject only we have been conscious
of meriting the rebuke of the kindred commu-
nities on both continents, who speak the Eng-
lish tongue. On tlie subject of slavery, itself
inflicted upon I he Western world by the uns
scrupulous grted of British merchants— we
have admitted the full extent of our national
misfortune and crime. Had we not reasen to
expect under the circumstances, when the
Republic was rent and torn by the struggles
of th« monster, slavery, that England, claiming
fo be the e.veniplar and friend of Emancipa-
tion, would at leaii have imitated the Levite of
the parable and passed by on the other side.
Not so, however. With indecent haste the
rights of a belligerent power were conceded to
an insurrection whose leading idea is slavery,
and whose success would be the bloody restor-
ation of the slave trade over tropical America;
and it needed not the late explosion of Eng-
lish hostilty and prejudice, to convince the
world that no consioeratious of humanity, and
civilization can turn the scale- of Great Britain's
hatred of I I'publican institutions or her sordid
devotion at the shrine of Mammon.

THE 1.A1VSOP CURRENCY.

John Adams, eighty years ago, with the
light of our revolutionar) experience to
guide him, made the following souml and
incontrovertible exposition of the financial
principles which rend'^r *he depreoiation of
large i-isues of paper inevitable. He said,
(works, voi. vii.. page 195,) "The amount
of ordinary commerce, external and inter-
nal, of a country, may be computed at a fix-
ed sutu A certain sum of money is nec^is-
sary to <'ircuUte among Ctu society in order

ducible to certainty You emit paper mon

That the people of Minnesota may uot
be utterly at a loss to account for the be-
stowal of the Government patronage on the
P((?/iffr~apaper so recently treasonable in
its utterances— and that had so fiercely

four years, we give tlie following from
the Washington correspondent of the
Springfiild (.Mass.) Republican — a paper,
by the way, — that the Pioneer recently extoll-
ed The latter paragra{'h, of the article
will suit the Pioneer's case almost exactly:

The journals are again agitating the sub-
ject of the employment o! semi-trai'.ors io
the departments. The ca.ses, of rebels in
oflice, are still numoiou*, and some of them
are exceedingly scandalous. The worst of
it is that whenever a traitor is turned out
of one ot the departments the army is .suie
to receive him in some shape i-r other. One
Virginian, who has numbers of relatives in
rebellion again'-l the government, was
turned out of a departmental office and Gen.

have committed egregious blunders in this
respect. One Republican Senator recently

two months ago openly and furiously charg
ed on Pennsylvania avenue that assistant
naval secretary Fox was "a d — d abolition

d — d abolitionist in the land had his d— d
throat out." A fortnight after this polite
utterance the gentleman became an appli-
es,nt for an office within the gift ol Republi-
cans, and though he is known to be pro-

Mr, Vallandighauj said this was the day
ot small reforms, ami as the day and as the
measure now pendin;; was eminently one of
the very smallest, it would doubtless meet
with Iavor. He rcati from the special com-
mittee of which be wis a member, the views
therein expressed against the aboiiiion of
the franking privilege, maintaining among
other things that there should be the freest
communication betv^een congressmen and
their constituents, npudiating the principle
that the Post Office Department should l>e
self sustained and showing that the increas-
ed expenses were owing mainly to the in-
crease of mail factlit es.

£ Iward Conkling and Pomeroy couti 3
ned the debate. The la.-t named tiffired a
resolution lo recommit the bill to the post
oflBv-e committee, wiiu instructions to report
a new bill embracinj. the following princi-
ples: 1st, abolishin;: the transmission of all
written and printed matter free of po-^^tage,
e.xeept that ordered lo bi^ printed by Con-
gress ; and 2nd, suet matter shall be stump-
ed "public documents," and on being
tranked shall passth-ousrh the mails free,

Messrs. Wright aid Kellogg, of Illinois,
opposed the the bill

Mr. Culfax replied to the objections
urgtd against the pending measure.

Mr. Hickman said the abolition of the
franking privilege vas a favoiite with the
secessiocists. If reforms weie desiixd
let the gentlemen direct their attention to
the millions of dollars squandered lor ships,
hurses and provender ; tj the thefts in
general, of which e'"cry member has .some
knowledge more nr less.

Ml. NV light moved to lay the whole sub
ject on the table, which was decided iu the
negative, 11 to 78.

Sk.n'ate. — Mr. C lUainer from the Post
Office Commitee reported back bill to pro-
mote the efficiency c f the drad let'tr office.
The bill provides t lat all dead letters be
returtiCd to the writers, instead of being

bill was postponed till to-morrow,

Mr, Trumbull reported fro.11 the Judiciary
Committee in favor of the re?olutinn to e.x-
pel Waldo II, Johnson, of Missouri.

Mr. Hale inlrodiced a bill to punish
frauds on the Treasury. The bill provides
that if any persons obtaining money Iraud-
uhntly, be punished I'y Gue and imprison-
ment to hard labor for not more than 10
years ; if any office ■ of the Government do
it, he b' discharged and punished and ever

The comnmnicdtions from the Secretary
of State io regard to the Trent affair were
t'tiken up.

Mr. Sumner proceeded to address the
Senate. He took jrounds that Captain
Wilkes was not leg:illy justified in starch-
ing the Trent and tskmg from her the rebel
amiiassadors, '.hough in making the seiza;-c
the gallant Captain was actuated by the
purest motives and acted iu strict accord-
ance with British pr cedent*, and with in-
ternatioi/fll law as v::poundr>d by the highest
Bri ish authorities, Mr. .Sumner contended
that the uniform po icy of the United
State,-, as w^^ll as 'h States of Continer lal
Kurope, has been oppastd to the preten-
sions ot the British Government, and has
mninttined a lilx th interpretation of the
rights o! neutrals, and that in many .solemn
treaiies in many m<st important and au-
thoritative slate pyjiere from the foundation
of the Republic to the present time, the
American (jiovernment has committed
il.'-iU fully and unre-ervedly to the right of
a neutral flag to cover civil pasjiengers.
The question, he continued, has been ar-
gued with the gna",est ability nnd thor-
ouchness by the moM eminent of our states-
men, including Jefierscm. Madis«ni, Mon-
roe, and other PresidL-nts, and the whole
record of our diplonacy is lumincfts with
arcuments ngain.st cm^h acts as that of
Capt, Wilkes

this proc-.^ding had saTed the Guvercment
a great amount of money. He thought it
was not a proper mode to reprimand an
officer who was admitted to be honest and
pure in his intentions and it was gross injus-
tice 10 the Secretary of the N;.vy.

Mr. Sherman spoke in favor of the
ameocment. He said the f«.cts could not
be dt-nied that Mr. Morgan, the brother in
law 0! the Secretary of the Navy, had re-
ceived nearly 8100000, und such action
could n<'t be defTcded.

Mr, Djolitile said he would go for mak-
ing war ou the thieves of the Treasury, but
be was i.ot prcparpj, on ex p:irteevidetice,
to vote censure on the Secretary ot the
Navy. We had more things to' contend
with than secession, and one was the eter>
nal ci-naking and complaint on the part of
pretended fripnds of the Government, some-
times without re.ison.

Mr. Wilkinson said it was a question
whelht-r the Secrelury of th*; Navy was to
be entrusted with a large amount of money.
He was unwilling to do it, after what hati
passed. He did not believe Secretary
Wellos an hone?t man, or in this emergeocv
he would not have permitted the Treasury
to be robbed for the purpose of ccricLina
family connection^. He cared ni;t who the
man was. or what position he occupied, he-
would lift up his hand against corruption
and wrong now and hereafter.

Mr Doolittic said he had adrise the Ka-
val Committee to call 00 the Secretary of
the Navy tor an explanation.

Mr, Halo said when he wanted advice he
would cull for it.

Mr. Wilson, by consent, introduced a res-
olution that the Secretary of the Navy be
requested to inform the Senate of the fact*
in regard to the employment of George B.
Morgan to p-jrchase vessels, and the amount
of citmpensation paid to him, which was
agreed to.

A special despatch from Cairo to the

Measures were subsequentlv set on foot
for ihe establishment of a Unim Caamber

TO TH8

niNNEISOTA LKVISLATl KI..

Oeiitirmeii uf th^ Seiuite nnd House or Hep'
resentiitiirg :

The repiv.sontiuivo:' of one of the youn
est States of thi' American Uniou, you
assembled, at the iiio.st eventful, uud per-
haps most critioul period of American his-
tory, to take your ^hart\ uoi without \U
inporlauce or iutluonce, in the pravc re-
B^onsibilities which the National peril im-
poses on the authorities of e\ery statf.

Since I last had the honor to address you
from this place, secession, then regarded as
an impotent threat of a few disappointed
politicians, too causeless in its motives and
too monstrous in its aims, for stM'ious j)er-
aistence, has de\eloped into the most g'i-
eantic rebellion of mod«'rn times. Eleven
fetates have i-euonnced tLe authority ut the
Federal Constitution : and more than half
a million of our fellow liti/eus. then fol-
lowing the peat eful piir>uits of life, are
cow arrayed in arms ajjainst the nearly
equal hosts of the reltelliou. ^Var raphes,
by land and sea. along thrt-e thou.-and miles
of American it-rritory, and wi- stand upon
the brink of events that may decide the
fate of the Republic and of the hunuui race
on this and every otln'i' continent.

All puivly local objects of legislation
sink into insignificance beneath the shadow
of this stupendous national calaniitv. The
peril which menaces the fabiie of the Fed-
eral Government involves the institutiims
and the destiny of every State.

The Constitution, under which the vouhl'-
etJt and poorest is the peer of the ' oldest
and wealthiest member of the Confederacy,
imposes equal obligations upon all. While
our brave regiments rank among the fon^
most of the countiy's deleiulers in the field,
it should be the care of those entrusted
with the direction of atlairsat home to cur-
tail every unneces.-ary expenditure ; to im-
prove every resource and husband everv
element of strength which will enable us to
give ihe most eflectual support our limited
means will permit to the national cause.

While this unpn-eedented condition of
affairs will invest your deliberations with
auusual importance, the law, a.s well as the
necessities, of a tsix burthened connnuuity.
necessarily jilace a limit t() your session.
and will suggest to you the t-xpedieucy of
proceeding immediately to the considera-
tion of the grave question^ growing out of
the present emergeiu-y. I shall be moat
happy to co-operate with you in a speedy
disposition of tlie business of the session,
and feel assured that I may rely upou your
best counsels in the discharge' of the' im-
portant and often delictiie duties which de-
volve upou the Executive in these pecu-
liarly chfficull times.

PROSI'EKOIS ( O.SDITIuN uF TIIK .ST VTK.

We have cause to felicitate ourselves
that, in spit" of the still visil(lt> effects of
the financial prostration of If^.")". and the
enormous pressure of the war upon the re-
Bources of the nation, the State of >[inne-
BOta has continued her onward progress in
population, wealth, agriculture, antl in near-
ly every department of industry and social
improvement. It is scarcely less indicative
of the ela.>tic energy of our people, than it
la honorable to their loyalty, that, havin"-
made the first tender of armefl aid to the
General (lovenmient, upon the fall of
Sumpter, in April last, our State was among
the Grst which furnished their full cpiota of
the half a million men called by the Gen-
eral Government to the national' defence.

Xotwithstandiug the force we have sent
beyond our liorders, in military array, our
population, by the l)est data, lias increiised
from 172,000 in June 1st, \^60, to over
2U0,(K)0 souls. Our farmers in three years
have nearly doubled the dominion of the
plough and the reaper. In place of im-
porting a part of our own food, our ex-
ports of grain have swollen, in the .same
short period, to three or four millions bush-
els. In the mean time the expenses of the
State Government have been reduced more
than one-half ; the State tax has been les-
sened twenty per cent., while the taxable
property has largely iuci-ea.«ed : the county
and township organizations have Ijcen
placed upon a far more economical andeflfi-
cient bacis ; the interests of public instruc-
tion have been organized and stimulated by
an effective supervision : the public credit
has been maintained ; the people have been
educated by the stern discipline of necessity
to habits of economy and industry : our
State has become, or is rapidly becoming
known abroad as the .synonym of health
and plenty, and the foundations are beintr
securely laid in our
economy for a career of
prosperity when trade and business shall
Lave resumed their ordinary- channels.

appropriatifin for interest on the eight jicr
cent, bonds, making in all a sum due that
officer of $3,939 Gl. It is earnestly i-e-
commended that he be promptly reimbursed
by an apiiropriatiou to this amount which
chargeii against the 'i'reasury, will leave a
balance on hand of S789 Hi.
In addition to the amount already paid by
the Ti-easurer on account of military ex-
penses, there are further accounts on the
same behalf still pending, amounting to
some four or five thousand dollars, making
the whole war expenditiii-e about S8,((()(),
the greater part of whicli may be paid by
the General (iovernment, but otherwise it
constitutes an ecjuitable claim against the
State, fur which it is recommended that an
appropriation be njade.

liRATIFVIXlJ BETKKNtillilENTS.

ITie reduced expenditures of the State
Government afford a gratifying proof of the
wisdom of the ameliorations and reforms
instituted by your predecessors.

The ordinary expenses of the State Gov-
ernment for 1801, in which I do not include
the interest on the funded debt or the amount
ai)Sorbed in the redemption of the old float-
ing debt, compare with the like expenses of
I8t;0 as follows:

If the current ttixes alone wen* promptly
paid, a rate of thn e mills wouKi l»e amjde
to meet Jill the current demands upon the
ti-*'asury. Were it possible in tin? iwxt
year to coUeit the cun'enl and delinquent
ta.xet., it would l)e in the pow«'r of the State,
not only to meet the year's ex|)euse.s, but to
tli.schurge all its fumled and floating debts;
and a tax of two mills would then be more
than sufficient, on the present property basis,
to cany on the Government, Hut the people
just t^inerging from 'i .severe and protracted
tinanciid depression, cannot bt' expected lo
do this at once.

THE POLICY OF KfONOMY EXPLAINED.

It is clearly our policy then to persevere*
in an economical administration of our
finances, cutting off e\ery useless expendi-
ture when exposed, and only entering on
such new enterprises as are indi.>5pensable,
and in a .short time with the rapid increase
of popiUation and wealth, and the con.se-
(lueiit expansion of the basis of taxation,
we shall float into the condition of a State
free from all debt, and the burthens of the
people wiU l)e so reduced as to he scarcely
jierceptible.

The e.xtraordinarj taxes which the war
compels the Federal Government to impose
upou us, furnish another and cogent rea.son
for a fi-ugal management of our affairs, and
though it is hoped this tax w ill not be re-
peated after the present year, it is the part
of 2)rudence and patriotism lo be prepai-ed
for any sacrifice, which our countr)' may
recjuire at our hands.

AlPITOKS UKPORT AND E.STIM.VTKS FOR 18G1

The law requires the reports of the State
cfficers to be deposited in the E.xecuti ve office
on or before the fifth of December, The
State .\udiior ha.s been gi-eatly embarrassed
in meeting this enactment, from the neglect
of the Legislature to require the County
Auditoi-s to make their returns before the
•late fixed for his report. This oversight
will, of course, receive your attention. The
very interesting report of the Auditor ex-
hil)its a steady increase in the wealth of
the State, even in these depressing times.
The appraisement of real estate being made
biennially, remains as equalized in 1860.
But the addition of new taxable areas, new
structures, and the iuci-ea.se in personal
property, raises the whole assessed valua-
tion of 1861, to 339,000,000. In 1860 it
was §36,000,000, showing a very gratifying
expansion of the basis of taxation. ' At
the present rate of taxation of four mills
on the dollar, it will yield a revenue of
81.06,000 for the year 1862.

The very prudent requirement that one
and a half mills of the State tax should be
paid in gold and silver, will enable the
treasury to provide more rapidly than here
tofore for the interest upon the eight per
cent bonds payable in New York.

The estimate of the Auditor for the or-
dinary civil expenses of 1862, are as fol
lows:

The report of the Treasurer gives an en-
couraging view of the finances of the State.
This report, it will be seen, covers a period
of but eleven months, from January 1 to
December 1, owing to a change made in

BRIGHT PROSPECTS FOR .\lINXKSC>rA.

When this war shall have terminated, as
it appare^utly soon will, in the triumph of
the cause of tho Constitution and the laws,
judging by the past experience of the couu-
tr}-, we may justly anticipate a revival of
the business and industry of the West be-
yond any pre^cedent in our frontier history.
Tens of thousands of our countrymen,
after having been drawn from the quiet
and monotonous life of our eastern towns,
to .share in the adventurous turmoil of the
battle-field, will prefer the excitement and
proe^rous activity of a new career in the
\Ve*)t, to a return to their old homes. This
has been the ca.se in all similar epochs in
our military history. The termination of
the old P^rench war, the war of the Revolu-
tion, that of 1812, and more recently the
war with Mexico, have been the great era.s
of westward emigration.

Then, too, the business energies, which
have i>een cramped by the coiLsequences ol
past misfortunes, will bound forward, with
a new impulse, on the tide of westward emi-
gration ; and Minnesota, and the immense
tributary region on her northwestern border,
0{)en the only field now left on the Ameri-
can continent, for the westward extension
of settlement, and the continue^! play of the
prodigious energies which have built uj)
the great States of the Mississippi Valley.
This is the only •■ new countrj' " available
for agriculture which remains to the Ameri-
can emigrant. ^Vcst of us beyond the
turbid Missouri, the boundless Buffalo
plains stretch in sterile nakedness to the
mountain border of the Pacific, and south-
ward to the Mexican boundary. The cease-
less drouth which consumes the sources of
vegetable life, in this interior desert, and
which often visits its eastern bordei-s in
Kansas and Nebraska, carrying starvation
and death in its train, inexorably forbid it
as the home of the farmer.

But in our luxuriant and well-watered
domain, extending for huudre'ds of miles to
the northwest, imliions of homes, stocked
beforehand, with eveiy requisite of health
and prosperity, are jet to be had for the
tidiing. Under the.se circumstances, we
have reason to anticipate a most prosper-
ous future in store for us. And 1 beg of
you, gentlemen, to believe that it is for the
purpose of making this beautiful State of
ours more inviting to the emigrant when
that day comes, and which 1 have never
double' I would com... that I am especially
solicitous to have our househohl in order.

It was not the mere- coasideration that
§100,000 annually might be saved to our
iini)Overished people in the administration
of the Government with advantage to its
efficiency, it was not to .satisfy the honest
citizen that a wasteful annual' expenditure
of nearly S90.000 for printing might be
beneficially reduced to one-eighth that sum,
immediately important as these objects am,
that 1 have so long persisted in urgin" an
economical policy ; but, after having af-
forded the needed' n^lief to an overburdened
people, it was to hold out to the great army
of emigrants whom the inevitable course of
events must soon turn toward the virgin lando
of the Northwest, the assurance that here, in
Minnesota, their industry was not to be
hampered, nor their asi)iration thwarted by
oppressive taxes for the support of officia'l
extravagance ; it was to make our noble
State e.steemed throughout the world a* in-
viting in its municipal, as it is in its physi-
cal aspects, and as desirable in the pre.?ent,
as it is promising in the future.

THK FEUERAI. WAR TAX.

Our position as a member of the con-
federacy imposes upon us an important,
but to us a new and unexpected duty.
The war in which the rebels of the South
have causelessly involved the country, has
compelled the I'ederal Government to exer-
cise her constitutional privilege of levying
a war tax, a part of which devolves on' us.
The Congress of the United States, in
extra session, passed an act, approved Au-
gust 0, 1861, providing " that a direct tax
of twenty millions of dollars be and is
hereby annually laid on the people of the
United States." By this act the sum of one
hundred and eight thousand five hundred
and twenty-five dollars is apportioned to
Minnesota.' The leading provisions of the
act of Congress are as follows :

'• Skc. 9. On or after the second Tues-
" day of February, 1862, the President shall
'• appoint assessors and collectors with the
" consent of the Senate in each district, and
" may divide the United States into districts,
" and may erect each State into one dis-
"trict * * *

"Sec. 11. Each assessor shall divide his
" district into a convenient number of assess-
" mcnt districts, and appoint a.ssistant as-
" 8e.ssors in each.

"Sec. 12. On the 1st day of March,
" 1 862, the assessors shall cause the assistant
•' assessors to assess all lands and improve-
"mentsin conformity to such regulations
" as the Secretary of the Treasury may esta-
"blish, and shall make such assessments
" with reference to the assessment rolls of
" the State, and to any other records and
" documents.

"Sec. 13. Lands and improvements to
•' be valued at the rate they are worth in
" money on April 1st, 1862. 'United States
" and States property exempt from taxation,
"also property exempted by State law.s,
"and property of individuals residing on
•'such lands, not exceeding $o00. In mak-
" ing such valuation, regard shall be had to
" any State valuation made nearest to said
" first day of April * *

" Sec. 15. If the owner is not prepared
" to exhibit a written list, the assessor shall
" make one, which on being read and con-
" sented to by the owner, shall be taken as
" his list * *

" Sec, 21. The lista shall be returned to
" the assessor within Bixty daya after the
"time fiie4 by tliia act [April Ist] ♦ *

" Sec. 3f). In default of the jmymeut of
'•ta.\es within twenty days after the apjtli-
'• cation of the afi.si',ss(>r, the personal pro-
•• jierty may be distniiued.

"Sm'. 36. If the j»er.sonal property is
" insufficient real estate mtiy be sold, but
" may be n'tleeiued within two years upon
•' re-payment of i)urchiLse money with iuier-
" est at twenty per cent. * *

.METHOD OF P.AVING TUB TAX.

Under this law thep, the State may elect
between two modes of meeting this levy.
She may assume its paynn'iit in her ow'n
wa\. or by neglecting U> do so, leave it to
the oi)eration of the Federal collection
laws.

The latter alternative is liable to Rerioua
objection, as it would inu-oduce a new ma-
chinery of as.sessment, new standards of
valuation, employing a large class of fede-
ral agents unfamiliar to our people; while
the peremptory modes of collection neces-
sarily enforced under the Federal Ij^v.s aiight
introduce elements of irritation, distress,
and popular discontent which it is the part
of patriotic policy to a\ oid. From every
point of view, it seems desirable that the
State should assume the pameui of the
ta.\. In thai case, the fifteen per cent re-
mitted to the State, will reiluce the amount
to be raised fropi l$lQ8,o2-'» lo 832,i-jo. I
take it that the claims of the State against
the Federal government will amount to
about S8,000, which if allowed, will reduce
the amount due the Government to 884,-
245.

^\'hl(t is even more important in assum-
ing it< payment, the State is at liberty to
select the method of raising the amount
which her authorities may deem least bur-
densome to the people. As notice of our
intention to provide fjr it must be given by
the second Tue^iy of FeV>ruary, I beg to
press upon you :.j^Q^tleinen, the necessity of
proceeding imi 'L, ely to an election of the
alternative proi^"™Ss thus submitted to
your considera'j^MO

If it shall Jhok. ft judgment that the
State undertak* «. responsibility of j.my-
ing this tax, three several modes suggest
themselves by which provision may be made
for its liquidation.

First by the ordinary method of a direct
tax, payable in cash am. collected through
the established channels. A levy of two
and one-fourth mills, if it could be collectfid
within the year, would enable us to meet
tho Federal inquisition, reduced as befoi-e
specified ; but as this could not be done,
judging fiom past experience in our Slate
collections, the rate would have to be in-
creased to three mills, making the agregate
rate for Federal and Stattj jiurposes seven
mills. One an<l a half mills is now collected
in specie. The war tax must also be paid
in coin or treasury notes, making four and
one-half mills of si)ecie tax. Or otherwise
stated, you want for State purposes in all in
lb62, *;y3,8()0 : for Federal i)urposes, 884,-
245.40, making the total sum to be collect-
ed, 8177,545.40. The State tax of lour
mills woidd yield ui)on a valuation of ?;39,-
000,000, 6:156,000 : a Federal levy of three
mills, 8117,000, making a total of !lii273,000.

Doubtless our people would respond to a
national tax in the present crisis more cheer-
fully and promptly than to any othei-, but
it is easy to see that this nearly double
burden would pre'ss heavily on the already
strained resources of the people, and it be-
hooves us then to devise, if possible, the
means of postponing an immediate resort
to taxation, till the expansion of the prop-
erty l)asis shall have made it less onerous.

A >^^coud mode is to create a State loan,
(which I doubt not we are warranted in
doing under Sec. 7, Art 9, of the Consli-

1 reasury notes upon the credit of the Uni-
ted States, to be used under pioper restric-
tions for hwiking purposes, by responsible
partitjs agreeing to their redem'ption. 'J'his
fecheme, if adopted, will probablv solve the
difficult problem of Western baukiuir.

It will furnish an unimpeachable curren-
cy of equal value everywhere, and besides
the niauifest advantages of a uniform and
famihar medium of circulation over the end-
less aiid perplexing variety of issues now
current it promi.ses a final' relief from the
recurrence of the enormous losses which
are now suffered by our jwople, with the pe-
riodical explosion of the banks,

THK PLULIC LANDS.

The Report of the Register of Public
Lands presents a .subject of the first import-
mce. The acts under which the Land De-

tution,) from the moneys arising from the
sale of the school land.s. The preliminaries
for such sale, if directed by the Legislature,
may soon be adjusted, and a sum .sufficient
for the purpose may possibly be realized
within the required time.

Or, thirdly, if this i,s doubtful, in antici-
pation of the revenues from this source, a
loan might be effected in the money mar-
ket for a period of two or three year's, at a
rate of interest not, I trust, exceeding seven
per cent., to be rtumbursed from the pro-
ceeds of the .sales of school land.s, which
may be converted into a funded debt for
that purpo.se.

One or two, or all of these expedients will
enable us to provide for the present exi-
gency without serious embarrassment to the
peoitle,

INEQVALITy OK THE FEDERAL TAX

While Minnesota will cheerfully and
gladly accept her full share of the sacrifices
which the obligations of patriotism impose
upon the nation, it is nevertheless much to
be regretted that the Federal Constitution
provides no way of apportioning the direct
tax which it authorizes, except upon the
basis of the population of the different
States — a principle, which, since the tax is
levied upon property, distributes the bur-
den verj- unequally among the different
members of the Confederacy, and works a
serious injustice to the new and .sparsely
settled, and comj)arutively poor states of
the West.

This inequality will be made clear ijy
comparing the rate of taxation necessary
to produce the amount levied upon the as-
sessed valuation of Minnesota with that of
Rhode Island, having the same popula-
tion :

Population Assessed Federal Rate of

1S60. raluat'on. tax. taxatloa.

R. Island, 174,6>I 13*1,000,000 116,900 9-10 mill

Minnesota, 172,022 39,000,000 10s,500 2 8-10 "

That is to say, the quota of Minnesota
relatively to the value of her property, is
more than three times &6 great as that of
Rhode Island. The comparison might be
extended with somewhat similar results to
nearly all the States. Against our 2 8-10
mills, California pays but 1 7-10, Ohio and
New York, 1 8-l0,*and so on.

But the injustice of a system which ope-
rates so unequally is sufficiently manifest
from these exampfcs. While it i's of course
impossible for Congress under the terms of
the Constitution to concede us any abate-
ment of the present tax, equity clemands,
and there can be no technical objection to
their making, such a modification of the
collection laws in our favor as would serve
to obviate to some extent the practical ine-
qualities of the present system. Our claims
to the consideration of the Government in
this matter are enhanced by the fact, that
while the burdens of the war fall three
fold upon us, our remote frontier position
excludes us from any of the compensatory
benefits arising from the disbursements of
the Government for the materials of war.

BAA-KINO AND CVRBENCY.

In the Banking Department, the Auditor
leporta bot few and unimportant tranaao-

partment was organized literally create two
separate Boards, in name, consisting of the
ijame persons, and exercising functions e.s-
f^eutially identical. You wiU of cour.se rem-
•?dy this cotifusion of names and things, by
♦he enactment of a more perfect law. The
business of the Department has progressed
as rapidly as was practicaV)le, or consLsteut
with the magnitude of the interests entrust-
ed to its supervision. The plats and neces-
sary books are in course of pre]iaration,
and will soon be in such re^adiness as will
enable the Board to take the uece«saiT
uteps f;ir sapplyiug the deficiencies of th'e
school .sections, and for any action von may
deem advisable for the disposition of these
and other lands.

The experimental re-survey of the Sw-amp
Lands in certain designated townships pre-
iicribed by the act of March 11, 1861, was
found to be impracticable under its provis-
ions, and from the partial survey had, was
not deemed likely lo lead to any useful re-
.suli.s, even if it could have been prosecuted.
The conclusion arrived at by the Board!
that the State would be the gainer on the
Avhoh' by accejiting the (iovermm.'ut sur-
veys, is commended to your favorable con-
.'.ideration.

The rent on the occupied school lauds,
assessed under a la'v of the last session, will
jirobably amount to about eighteen thou-
sand dollars, implying an occupancy of
about 52,000 acres," worth at the minimum
valuation about $360,000. These, it is rea-
sonable to infer, are among the mo.st valua-
ble of the school lands now left, and it is
not unnatural that the persons who have
iieen permitted to retain possession of them
through the forbearance of the State, should
hope by another exercise of legislative clem-
ency, to secure titles thereto at prices far
iKilow their value. But it is difficult to .see
what special claims to legislative favor these
persons have iR-quired by an admitted —
though perhaps not always designed — ti-e.s-
pass upon the public pro'perty.

A jn.st and liberal spirit ought to pervade
all the laws enacted for the sale or rent of
the .school lauds; alike without invidious
discrimination against one da^s, or in favor
cf another. If the provisions of the pres-
ent law bear unequally upou the lessees,
taey might perhaps be so modified as to
remedy cases of individual hardships. But
this should be done with a strict view to the
paramount public interest involved. It is
obvious that if any con.siderable school fund
is to be realized to the State, for a number
of years, that the utmost circumsi>ectiou
niu.'-t be ol).«er\ ed, in the disposition of the
class of lands which have now reached a re-
spectable value.

My own views upon this subject have
been urged at so great length heretofore,
that it is unnecessary- to repeat them. But
I should be unfaithful to a .strong convic-
tion of duty, if I failed to inculcate once
n ore- upon the repre.sentatives of the people
the necessity of the most rigid and scrupu-
lous guardianship of the sacred trust which
the Constitution confides to you in the man-
agement of the .school lands, and to admon-
ish you against any attempts, disguised un-
der any i)retext, to induce you to sacrifice
tie interests of the school fund.

Unfortunately, a large proportion of the
most valuable school lands have been pre-
empted under the act of Cougre.ss of March
3d, 1857. The equivalent quantity, which
the State is authorized to .select from the
Government lands, will be far from equiva-
leat in value to the original sections. It is
hoped that a considerable portion of the lat-
ter may be recovered to the State. It will
be perceived by a reference to the Report
of the Attorney General, that the question
wliich has been mooted, regarding the right
of the State to vindicate her title in her own
Court.s, to school lands fraudulently pre-
empted, by parties falsely swearing to set-
tlement prior to the survev, has been sub-
stantially decided in our favor.

There' is reason to believe that much of
the most valuable land has been thus pre-
empted, and patents issued therefor.

If these patents can be successfully im-
peached, the .school fund will be greatly en-
hanced. The action which has been taken
by the E.xecutive thus far, has been without
express legislati\ e dire jtiou. The tjuestion,
however, is assuming a practical importance
which entitles it to your serious attention,
and it is desirable that the Executive should
hare the benefit of your advice and sanc-
tion, in a matter of so much interest to eve-
ry citizen.

I also commend to your favorable notice
th<! suggestion of the Attorney General, as
to the collection and preservation of the
Criminal Statistics of the State. It is be-
lieved that much information of great value
to the enlightened legislator might be col-
lected with little or no expense.

EntTATION.

During the recess of the Legislature, the
office of Superintendent of Public Instruc-
tiou having been resigned by the Rev. E.
D. Neill, to assume the Chaplaincy of the
First Regiment of Minnesota Volunteers it
afforded me great satisfaction to be able'to
supply his place by the appointment of the
Kev. Dr. B F. Crary, a gentleman who
brings to the office all the requisites of
scholarship, ability, and energy which dis-
tin^^ished his predecessor.

The Department of Public Instruction,
has been embarrassed by the imperfect leg-
islation of the last session, rendering it nec-
^stiry to issue numerous explanations of
the law, and confining the Superintendent
to the work of his office at the capitol. He
has not been able to visit the different coun-
ties of the State, because the compensation
of lie office was not adequate to pay the
exiMnses of a dark.

comi>eus-
provision

attentjot is called to the re-
the Stjile Superintendent
in refeivnce u» Count\ Superintendents.
This office has proved satisfactory in other
States, and seems peculiarly adapted to a
country like ours. It is sim'ple and econo-
mical, and ha.s the advantage of being aj)-
proved by the most'experienced teachers in
all parts of the country.

\ our more intimate icquaintance with
the sentiment^ of the people at lan'e, will
enable you to judge of tie necessity "of this
and other proposed changes, and to nteet it
is hoped, the general expectation, in the
pa.ssage of an efficient soliool law.

The Normal Board, a< cording to the law
]>a.ssed last winter, recommended a uniform
series of text books, which has been adoptr
ed by most of the schools in the State.
Contracts ha\e been mate with the pubU.sh-
ers of the books, and they are furni.shed to
the State at reasonable rates, and the prices
according to the terms of the contract can-
not be raised for five years. Teachers and
Boards of Education* differ in reference to
school books, and entire uniformity is im-
possible, but the act of t je Legislature and
■selection of the Normal Board being fol-
lowed by a contract wi.h the publishers,
should be regarded as binding until the
teinis of the contract are fulfilled.

The report of the Superintendent on the
question of elevating the teachers profess-
ion, must meet the hearty concurrence ol
every right minded man. By the enactment
of suitable laws, and the iberal support of
the Normal School, we nay secure a corps
of teachers that will be an honor and a bless-
ing to the whole State.

The report of the Noimal Board, made
to you through the Superintendent of Pub-
lic Instruction, will give an account of its
action, and of the succe.s:. of the school du-
ring the year. The Legihlature will, no
doubt, feel, in common with the whole State,
that it is creditable to us to have a success-
ful Normal School at sc eariv a f>eriod in
our history. The legislation 'necessary to
its gre^ater efficiency, and continued u.seful-
ness, we trust may be given.

The increasing business in the office of
Superintendent of Publie Instruction, and
the importance of giving that officer more
time to visit the different .sections of the
State, rc(iuin_- that a more liberal
ation should be allowel, and
made tor a clerk for the ofRce,

The recommendation of the State Super-
intendent that military di-ill be enjoined as
a part of school exercise, is brought to your
attention. Whether this .-should be left to
the Normal Board, and to Boards of Edu-
cation, is left to your judgment; but the
subject is commended ai one of no ordina-
ry importance lo our stat- and nation. The
precious time and vast amount of means
lo.st to our country, for want of militan-
training, during the prese it war, should ad'-
moni.sh us that it is wisdom to prepare for
future emergt^ncies. American youth, if
trained as suggested, would grow' uji into
an invincible people, fully armed, and hence
I)ruf(nindly resjiected abroad. That ade-
(piate pre'paration for war is the only .sure
guarantee of peace, is a lesson imjiera'lively
taught by the calamities cf the timea

The affairs of the University will demand
your attention. The Report' of the Board
of Regents will give yuu a verj- full under-
standing of it^ circumstances, and will
doul»tless leave the im])ression on vour
mind.s, as on others, that the unfortunate
condition of that Institution can, in view
of present events, be be, t adjusted by aj>-
poiuting a commission with full power and
authority to transfer the lands and prop-
erty of the University in payment of it-
debts. The claims against the Institution
amotuit to 893,500. i:pon clo.se scrutiny,
this may doubtless be reduced. It is possi-
ble that the lands, of whid there are' 46,080
acres, may be made to liq lidate the debts,
and save to the University, the buildings
and adjacent lands.

I come with great regret t« this conclu-
sion; but after much consultation with the
members of the Board, who have been act-
uated by a sincere desire to save this much
prized foundation to the noble u.ses for
which it wa."5 granted, no other alternative
seems practicable, while ith continued reten-
tion only adds to its embarntssments, with-
out opening any new sources of relief.

It is probable that the authorities at
Washington may yet concde the construc-
tion we have contende<l for, of that clause
of the enabling act of Fe iruary 26, 1857
donating two towns for University pur-
poses. If this hope be realized, and more
considerate counsels shou d in the future
govern those having charjre of these inter-
ests the University of Mi inesota may vet
be a richly endowed institi tion.

To guard against the possibility of abuse,
m the di.sposition of the j»resen't property
of the University, the arnmgement what-
ever it may l)e, might be submitted to a fu-
ture Legislature before' coiisummation, and
the expenses that may be incurred should
be confined to a certain and limited sum.

It is but justice to the present Board to
say that they have indulge<i in no expendi-
ture's but the small sums m hich the care of
the property required, and which were at
once discharged, as will be seen by the re-
port of the Treasurer and Agent of the
Board of Regents.

TOE BCREAf or BTA TISTICS

The labors of the Commissioner of Sta-
tistics are justly regarded a; of the highest
importance to the welfare of this new and
but partially known State, That fndefat-
igable officer, by the coUectian dnd dissemi-
nation through influential (hannels, of the
statistical evidences of the progress and ca-
pabilities of Minnesota in ajmculture, man-
ufwtores, commerce, population, wealth,
and social improvement, is sowing the seed*
v-f a correct appreciation of the State

Our taxable valuation beine about $39,-
000,000, this is equivalent to a return of
about 22 per cent The exports of wheat
in 1861, are given at about 3,000,000 bush-
els, against 1,650,000 bushels in 1860 and
370,000 bushels in 1859. Before that w«
rnqjorted, instead of exported, food. \\'ith
such progress in the midst of all the de-
pressing influences of the times, what may
we not expect in more auspicious seasons.

THE STATE PKISO.V.

I invite your attention to the very inter-
esting reports of the W^arden and of the In-
sfK'ctors, of the State Prison, at Stillwater.
For some imac-countable cau.se, the letrisla-
ture' at their last two session., omitted to
provide for the most urgent and ordinary
necessities of this institution. This neglect
has einbarrassetl the operations of the' offi-
cers having care of the institution, and at
the same time has necessarily resulted in an
additional charge to the State.

The appropriation for the enlargement of
the Prison, so as to furnish a hospital, a di-
ning room, and a few cells for female' pris-
oners, has Ix'cn j)rudently exjwnded.

The convict^ at this time are twenty-two
m number, against sixteen on the fi'rst of
January. 1861. and with one or two excep-
tions, all the cells are occupied. It is bare-
ly possible that we may get through the
present year without the'necessity of adding
to our present cell iicc-ommodatio'n ; but this
can only be done by assigning two or more
of the class of prisoners charged with minor
offenses to the .same cell, an expedient
which would hazard the security of jdi. An
expenditure- of twelve or fifte«'n thousand
dollars, it is believed, will be sufficient for
an enlargement which would furni.sh eighty
additional cells, and afford all the acconimo-
dation which would probablv be needed for
eight years.
The hospital dining room. Arc, just erected
w-ill, it is thought .'suffice for all the wanU
of the prison within that time. The sum
need not all be exjiended in one vear. but
its disbursement may be verv p'rofitably
distributed through 'a period' of three or
four years, if tlie Legislature should deem
It atlvisable to coimnenc« the required ex-
tension at once. John B. Stevens, the con-
tractor for the labor of the convicts, hav-
ing abandoned his contract on the 20th of
March last, I mlvised the inspector to in-
vite proj>osals for labor, and. under the
competition of rival applicants, the terms
of the contract made with Geo. AL Sey-
mour were the best that could be obtained
at the time. Since, however, this arrange-
ment though, under the circumstances ne-
cessary-, contravenes the express enact-
ments of law, it will require vour ratifica^
tion.

The discipline of the prison is excellent
and the health and comfort of the convicts
all that could be desired.

With the increase of the price of labor
which may be reasonably anticipated, the
earnings of the convicts will in a few vears
meet all the current expenditures o'f the
prison. The current expenses of the insti-
tution the pa.st year, including—

The suggestions of the Warden that
some small sum, not exceeding ten dollars
in any one case, lie paid to the convicts on
their discharge, and that an abatement of
sentence be made on condition of good be-
havior, will commend themselves to your
favorable judgment on the score both of
expediency and humanity.

THE .STATE IJBRARV.

The report of the State Librarian exhib-
its the gratifying fact that the very excel-
lent 6}etem of exchanges between the
States, the only souree of our supply, haa
given us an increase of volomes during the
pa*t year beyond that of any previous ona

If our finances admitted ' of it, I should
be pleased to recommend a fomiw appro-
priation so that the broken aeta of State
reports. Arc might be completed Fonr
hundred dollars, it is believed, would be
amply sufficient for the purpose. The
newsjiapers of the State that are fumiahed
the Library, form valuable materials of lo.
cal history, and as they have now accnmu-
lated to an inconvenient degree, it might
be well to have them bound.

The decennial census retnnis of this
State for 1860. deposited with the Secre-
tary of State in pursuance of law, are a
most important part of our State archive*,
and I would recommend that they be aa-
BortBd and bound under the direction of the
OommisBioner of Statigtics, who haa titen

priations will 1>«? nt't»ded. ITii' neo(vsiiy of
preserving the small rolUvtioii of hooks
we now possess from spoliation, ^ivi's an
evident emphaiiiM to the sutrir<'stion of the
Librarian for a modification >>f the law of
last session iu referenco to the IJbrarv

lllSTOKIi vr. SOCIKTY.

As a measure of ivtrenehuient, made utv
cesaary by the eireunistauot's of the timi>s,
I recommend the susp*'nsion. for twu or
tliree years, of the uet making un unnmil
appropriation to the Historieal Society of
Nliunesota. This Society, incorporated in
18-49, is the oldest literary and scientific
organization iu the State, and has been
fostered by a small appropriation, as sim-
ilar societies have been by Wif<cousin uiid
Iowa. To its silent and unobtrusive la-
bors we are indebted for the rescue from
oblivion of many curious and romantic in-
cideat-; in the early history of this region,
that will be prized by the future historian.
For two or thnv year>, the society, appre-
ciating the linauci.d pressure upon our
people, voluntarily forbore asking their ai>-
imal appropriation; but last year they in-
curred expense iuthe publication of " Major
l.oap's canoe voyag-e to the Falls of St.
Antuony," which was distributed to th.'
mvmbers of the Legislature and others. I
would therefore recommend that, iu .^u^-
peuding the annual appropriation, provi-
eion be made for that due to last year, to
tnable the Society to honestly discharge
the obligations incurred by virtue of the
«xi«ting act.

L.V.VD ORAXr R.\II.ROADS.

Dy stneral acts uf the laat session, cer-
t liu parties or companies were authorized
upon certain conditions to construct ?ever-
a iy the Minnesota aud Pacific, the Cedar
X'uiley, the Transit and the Southern Min-
nesota Railroads. And for this purpose
t'iey were to be invested, as construction
advanced, with all the lands, properties and
franchises to which the State had previons-
1\' become entitled by forfeiture ami pur-
chase upon foreclosure, and they were re-
viuiit'd to deposit with tin- (ioveruor the
sura of ten thousand dollars as a guarantee
of good faith, to l>e forfeite*i in case of a
nou-fultillmeut of their obligation.s. These
n.easures have resulted in uu advance of
i;iese desirable improvements, and the own-
ership of all remains iu the State. The
breaking out of the war has eflectually sus-
pended all enterprises of this nature, and it
li therefore not surprising that the con-
struction of these roatls was not even at-
tempted, except iu the case of the Minne-
sota and I'acific. In this case the Compa-
ny paid the State Treasurer the amount of
legal costs and e.xpeuses incurred by the
State iu the foreclosure aud sale of the said
road, and deposited with the Governor on
the 25th of June, thirteen Ohio Union Loan
Bonils, amounting in the agtrregate at 90
cents to {J7.20U, and three State of Minne-
mVx luterest \V'arrants of one thousand
dollars each. This sum .so deposited agree-
ably to the fourth section of the " act to
facilitate the construction of the Mimiesota
and Pacific Uailroad," has been absolutelv
forfeited to the State, in eon.se(juence of the
failure of said Company to construct the
said road from St. Paul to SL Anthony,
oa or befoi-e the 1st of .January. 1862.

Whether, under the peculiar circumstan-
ces of the case, the State shall retain the
forfeited property, rests with you to deter-
mine; and iu that case it will be your duty
to direct how aud by whom these stocks
phali be disposed of for the benefit of the
State.

As there is no al)ility on the part of the
State to construct these roiuls, aud in view
of the fact tliat the grant will be entirfMy
lost in a few years unless the work is prose-
cuted. I can see no objection to a substan-
tial re-enactment of the Legislation of la.st
winter in the case of each road, giving to
pai'ties who may be willing to undt>rtake
their construction, the o])portunity for an-
other year to do so, upon a deposit as be-
fore of a pecuniary guarantee of tiieir sin-
cerity. In this connection I would renew
the suggestion made in my annual messaije
of 18«n:

" In any legislation regarding the trans-
" fer of our Railroad lauds. I desire your
" attention to be directed to the claims of
" certain settlers thereon prior to their loca-
** tion by the late Companies, whose rights
■' have reverted to the State from their ina-
•* bility to pay for their claims at the recent
" land sales. The enforcement of our strict-
■' !y legal rights in the premises, will work
" great hardship to a worthy and industri-
" ous cla-ss of citizHUs and sully the honor
"of the State by an act of flagrant inju.s-
**tic^ You should then-fore e.'stend" to
" them every protection compatible with
" the interests of the State."

While there is not much to encourage
the hope that at the present time anything
considerable will be attempted towards the
construction of these roads, which all ad-
mit are essential to the development of an
exteasive territory, and the prosperity of
our people, no obstacle should be placed
in the way of those whose far-seeing enter-
pri.-ie may induce them to undertake even a
8mu.ll part of these improvements now, with
s view to their eventual accomplishments
when that "bptter day" comes, which, from
our unrivalled advantaires we have a riirht
to anticipate.

••OIR I.NDI.VX KEI..\TrO.NS.''

The Aborigines within our borders, the
Dakotas, Chippewas and Winnebago.s, a
people whose history and destiny can never
oe without interest to those who have suc-
ceeded to their ancient hom^s in the broad
plains aud forests of Miimesota, liave given
us, during the past year, no more than the
ordinary amount of care. Many were un-
der the impression that as the minds of the
Southwestern Indians had been poisoned
against the Government, the tribes of the
North wectesn might be more or less disaf-
fected; but so far as 1 have been abl<> to
discover they have preserved an unabated
loyalty to the Government

Our southwestern counties have indeed
complained of troubles occasioned by rov-
ing and predatory bands of Sioux, not af-
fected, however, by political causes, but by
the ordinary motives that actuate parties of
these tribes. Arras and blankets were fur-
nished the people iu Jackson county, who,
no doubt, recollecting the sad affair at
Spirit Lake in 18.57, had their apprehen-
sions of a similar disturbance e.\cited by
the presence of these vagrant parties of
Sioux. Subsequently, at my request, Capt
Western, of the Second Minnesota Volun-
teers, repaired with his company to that
part of the country, and remained there
some weeks. No Indiana were di-scovered,
and, 80 far, nothing has occurred to disturb
the peace of that portion of the frontier.

TROrULE WITH CHIPPEWAS.

Ri\er, .stages carry ing niail> and passengeiv
at ivgular intervals through their country,
and tiieir old trail ajiprojiriated as a hab-
itual thuroughfan- of traM.-portation, it is
not surprising that tii-'v aiv becoming ap-
pivhensive that a tith- to the Red River
aud the adjoining lands is .sieadil} growing
up against them, and that the prairies aud
hunting grounds of their dusky ant<'stors
will be appropriated by the aggressive nux-
of pale faces without making compensation
therefor. At leuiith, dftermined to use
force or intiinidatiou. a lioily of \\vh\\ came
upon the steamer North Star at I'embina,
anp demanded forty thousand dollars or an
interest in the profits of the boat, iu de-
fault of which, tht'y threatened to destroy
the boat aud cargo. I'he peivons iu charge
finally bought otl' the jjarty with three
hundred dollars worth of goods, upon the
agreement, however, that some permanent
arrangement should be mnde foi- the fu-
ture.

The boats and a large amount of valua-
ble stores and goods, i/i transitu, have Ix^en
lodged for the winter at (ieorgeiown, and,
as there was some apprt'hensiou e.\pressed
by owners and i-esidents that during the
winter this property might be destroyed,

companies, if neces.sary. to (juarter at that
place during the winter.

.VECESSITV OK A TKKATY.

As this trade with Rritish America is
assuming large and rapidly augmenting
proportions, while the mail aud pa.ssengers
destined for the posts and settlementa in
that inmiense region are now carri>'d exclu-
sively l)y this route, it has become a matter
of international importance that the route
should be kept fn-e from molestation. It
concerns the dignity and honor of the Gov-
crnmeut that we >hould ever be able to give
.safe conduct to the persons aud goods of
British subjects through American territo-
ry, and it would be a di.sgrace, of national
propoilion-s, if l.anu should come to the life
or property of iho.se engaged iu this com-
merce from any inattention to the supjjo.sed
rights of the.se savages.

A treaty for the purchase of their lands
has become an urgeui necessity, and I have
no question that it may be effected upon
veiy reasonable terms. I have addressed
a representation upon this sul>ject to the
President

How far it may l)e within the ai)ility of
the several Governments, at this time, to
consider the interests of our remote fron-
tier, it is difficult to judge. But while it
would ill become us to be unnecessarily
importunate in view of the great and ab-
sorbing i.ssues that are engaging their en-
ergies, it would be well for the Legislature
to memorialize Congre.ss on the subject,
asking at least for some measures that will
satisfy the Indians owning the valley of the
Red River, and give security to trade and
travel along that route into the British set-
tlements upon our border, either by treaty
fur their lands, or at least for a "right ot
way through them. An appropriation of
fifty tliousaud dollars was made by a recent
Congress for the construction of a fort
near the international boundary. In view
of more than one possible contingency, it
might be well to suggest to the Govern-
ment, as a measure of prudent foresight,
the propriety of entering upon this work at
an early day. If happily no events should
occur to test its importance iu ca.se of a
foreign war, it would give great confidence
to the settlements that are extending in
that direction, aud stimulate a trade that is
every day becoming more valuable.

As the British mail matter destined to
the subjects of that power in the north is
now transmitted almost exclusively by the
mail route through this State, it would
seem proper to grant it every reasonable
fai'ility in our power. With this view, and
for the accommodation of our own growing
settlements in that direction, an increase of
mail fivcilities to the Red River country
should bo urged upon the Government.

I have so often heretofore expressed my
conviction of the prospective importance of
this part of the State, a id that opinion has
been so amply confinned by events, that 1
do not feel called upon to m-ge it more at
length on this occasion.

•State of our ilay affords to tiieir nnfortunules,
I shall ht- nutst hapj»y to (•o-o|M">raU' with

The publication of the rolls of the gal-
lant inrii, who for the first time in the histo-
ry of Miimesota, were called upon to cro.s.s

is a ju.st tribute to their valor and patriot-
ism, ami will, in after times, be cheri.shed by
the millions who shall inherit these broad
lauds, as the roll of her primitive heroes.
The names emidazoned there will furnish
the theme of many a stoiy, of patriotic dar-
ing aud heroic adventure, in after times;
aud future generations will be as proud to
trace their lineage to these soldiers of the
Union, as are we to the heroes of the Rev-
olution.

When the infamous attack upon Fort
Sumter occurred in April, 1861, I was iu
the city of Wa.shington, on busine.ss con-
nected with the State, and at imce called
upon the Secretary of War, in company
with two of our fellow citizens iu official
station, and tendered one thousand men to
the Government on the part of Minnesota

WHV TIIR STATK WAS XOT RKCKLKSSLV PIXXU-
ED I.\TO DEBT 0.\ TUE OL'TliREAK OF TUE
W.VR, AS DE>fA>rDED BY THE PIO.NEER.

I am proud to know, that this was the
first tender of troops made to the President
I explained to the Secretary that our Leg-
islature' would not meet until January. 1862,
unless called in special session, aud that iu
the emljan-asse*! condition of our finances,
it would facilitate the organization of our
contingent, if he would, in the meantime,
furnish the nece.s.sary clothes, arms, equip-
ment.s, i'c. which he at once agreed to. It
would, jHM-hajj.s, have been more' gratifying
to our pride, if the State had been able,
like its older and wealthier sisters, to have
advance*! the sum recpiired for this purpose.
But as it is the unifomi practice of the gen-
eral (government to meet all the e.xpeiises
of the troops called into the service, such
tenders of pecuniary aid are merely iu the
nature of temporary loans, to i>e reimbursed
from the Federal Ti-easury. Many of the
State.s, having full treasuries and abundant
credit, promptly advanced tlie necessary
fuuils to place their troops iu the field, anil
have since been partially, or wholly, repaid.
For the timely aid thus given to the de-
pleted Treasury of the nation, these states
deserve the thanks of our countrymen eve-
rywhere.

But it would have been folly for a State
like ours, with a barren treasury, to have
emulated the example of New* York or
Pennsylvania If the Legislature had
been convoked in extra .sessi«« for this
purpose, the recjuired sum could only have
been raised l)y the issue of bonds or treas-
ury warrants, at a great sacrifice; and. with-
out resulting in any substantial benefit to
the (iovermnent would have entailed a
large addition to our own embarrassments.
1 hope that, so long as the sacred trust
of caring for the interests of the people is
confided to my hands, I shall never be
guilty of adding to their burthens for the
mfre eclat of an empty display.

THE VOLUNTEERS OF MI.V.VESOTA.

Minnesotas quota of the half a million
men authorized to be raised for the war, is
four thousand one hundred and eighty men.
Her actual contributions have already ex-
ceeded this by five hundred men, and, be-
fore the opening of navigation in the
spring, her volunteers will number fifteen
hundred men in excess, or our proportion
of an army of .seven hundred thousand
men.

In addition to one regiment of three
months men, we have raised the following
number of

constituting this sum, I trust you will ntake

the necessary approjiriation to meet the
contingency of its non-payment by theCJov-
ernment

Under a recent order of the war o9ice
giving the gimeral superintendence of re-
cruiting to an ortie<'r of the regular armv
with his headquarters at Fort Sn<'Hing, the
State authorities will be ivlieved of much
of the labor and care heretofore' devoh ing
ujion them ; and unless I misinterpret the
significance of this order, it will, 1 ih.nk.
obviate the uei-e.ssity of any large appropria-
tion for military purposes. Neverth<'less,
in view of possible contingencies, and to
avoid the necessity anil expense which
might otherwise arise of a special .session.
I would advi.se the appropriation of .some
ten thousand dollars, the expendituiv of
which may be placed under the supervision
of a Board consisting, perhaps, of three of
the State officers. •

KKSJ'ElT To OLK DEAlt .SOLDIERS.

I have, by circular letters, taken pain.s to
impress upon the chaplains of our regi-
ments the propriety of designating the i)u-
rial places of siich of our brave soldiers as
may fall upon tin- battle-field or die from
ordinary di.sease.s, in order that the State or
their relatives may, at the proper time,
bring home the sacred relics of their hou-
ore'd dt?ad, to Gntl a resting place amid fit-
ting memorials of private affections aud
public gratitude, iu the bosom of a State
which will never cease to cherish their
ashes aud to revere their memorie.s.

CAKE 101: DI.St'HAKOED SOLDIERS.

I have likewise desire'd tin? Chaplains to
provide for the necessities of such of our
men as may be discharged aud desire to re-
turn home without the means of doing ^0,
giving the assurance that the State will ile-
fray the expenses of their homeward travel.
Our very worthy Treasurer has been va-
trusted with the mission of procuring from
our voluntetjis an allotment of a portion of
their pay for the subsistence of their fatai-
lies at home, and it is believed that our sol-
diers, who are intelligent and benevole.jt,
as they are brave and patriotic, an; gener-
ally availing themselves of this means of
providiug for their friends. I am not aware
that any legi.slation is necessary to give
greater efficiency to this system. " It would
be well here\ as in other States, to make
some discrimination in the operations of
civil process in favor of our voluntee-'s,
whom a noble devotion to their country has
withdrawn from the immediate guardianship
of their property interests at homi^

KLKCTIO.V LAUS.

I havt> re-ceived the notification of the
Secretary of the Interior, dated J uly 9th,

The Chippewas of Red Luke and Pem-
bina have occasioned some anxiety to the
Stage and Express Company, and others
carrying on a trade with and transporting
goods into the British .settlements on Rea
Hiver. These Indians, the most needy of
any of the bands of the North, have for
years been encouraged in the expectation
of a treaty with the Government, from
which, in their simplicity, they doubtless
aalicipated mimense benefits. So far, from a
variety of causes, their hopea have been
disapt>ointed,amd, seeing the staamara of

1861, certifying in pursuance of the Act of
Congress, of the 2;^d of May, 1850, " that
the State of Minnesota is entitled to one
member of the Hou.se of Repn'sentatives
for the Thirty-eighth Congress, and until
another apportionment shall be made ac-
cording to law." I am not aware that the
sUitutes relating to elections require any
modification in con.sequence of this reduc-
tion of our Representation in Congress.

Recent experience has developed an ob-
vious error in our electiou law which calls
for your attention. Fifteen days notice on
the part of election officers is* required to
be given before any general election, stat-
ing the officers to be elected. The law also
makes provision for special elections to fill
vacancies, the time thereof to be desig-
nated by the proclamation of the Governor,
providing, however, that if the vacancy oc-
curs before the general t^ection, it is to be
filled at that election.

Obviously a vacancy may occur before a
g»meral election, but alter the fifteen days
notice have been given, and it would be
therefore impossible to comply with the
first of these provision.s. Furthermore,
even if notice may l)e disregarded, the law
implies the dangerous alisurdity, that if the
iiicuml>ent of an office .■should die or resign,
the day before' the election, the office must
be filled the next day, when, of cour.se, the
knowledge of his death must be confined to
the immediate neighborhood of his resi-
dence. As the law applies to members of
Congre.ss as well as members of the State
Legislature, it is easy to perceive the evils
to which it might lead. A vacancy occur-
ring within fifteen days of a general elec-
tion should be filled at a special election.

REDEMPTION' OF OOVER.VME.VT LANDS.

Appreciating the difficulty which pre-
emptors would have iu meeting their pay-
ments in October and December, 1861, as
in strict law was required, 1 appealed to the
authorities ut Washingtou that a longer in-
dulgtmce might b"e exteuded to thein, until
more auspicious times should enable them
to discharge the small money obligations en-
uring to the Government, and thus secure
to numbers of needy men, women and chil-
dren the homes for which, iu most in-
stances, they have long and laboriously
struggled with the difficulties of the time.s.

I regretted to learn that under the law
the Executive Departments were incotnp*?-
tent to extend this relief. As the Govern-
ment would gain comparatively nothing by
allowing these people to be disposdeased,
while they would suffer great and needless
distress. I pray you to appeal to Congress
i a their behalf.

DEAF .\.ND DUMB.

From researches recently made, I am led
to believe that there are about seventy-five
deaf mutes iu the State. If you can devise
aDy plan for secaring to them the benefits of

166
4,400

thousand four hundred men.

In all four
The Fifth Regiment is in proce.ss of forma-
tion, and will doubtless be ready to march
South as early as the opening of navigation.
A second battery of Artillery is also in
progress.

Much difficulty was e.xperieuced by the
Adjutant (ieneral acting as Quartermaster
in furnishing the First Regiment. It was
early in the season. The nights were cold,
and au immediate supply of blankets and
other articles was necessary. Compelled to
seek these without funds in a very restrict-
ed market, he did the best that seemed
possible under the circumstances. But for
the energy aud activity of this officer, the
difficulties connected with this early organi-
zation would have been most discouraging
to all concerned, and it is but one of the
misfortunes of public place that his effort**
in this behalf, which entitled hiin to com-
mendation, should have furnished the occa-
sion of unmerited abuse.

The First Regiment was ordered to
Wa.shington in the latter part of June, aud
a mouth afterward took a part in the van
of the memorable conflict at Manassas.
How well and gallantly they deported them-
selves, on that disastrous occasion, how
gloriously they bore the bullet-riddled ban-
ner of Minnesota through the fearful vicis-
situde of that bloody day, impartial history
will ever testify.

The Second, Third and Fourth Regi-
ments are also full and have been in ser-
vice. The Second aud Third in Kentucky,
and the Fourth, so far, in manning the
several frontier forts of Minnesota and Da-
kota

Our Cavalry and Artillery are in Mis-
souri.

The number of armed men contributed
by this young State in 1861, to the com-
mon defense, is greater than her entire pop-
ulation in 1850, will be suggestive to every
one, of the beneficence of that Government
under which such astounding progress is
not merely possibl** but habitual, and re-
bukes, more than words, the sacriligeous
attempt to destroy a Government fraught
with such rich blessings.

The compensation of the Adjutant Gen-
eral now established by law is but two hun-
dred dollars. As his time since the 20th
of April, until the Ist instant, has been de-
votetl in a great degree to the duties of his
office, it will be but just to him that addi-
tional compensation should be allowed him,
with a reasonable sum for clerk hire, and
the incidental expenses of his office.

As it is probable that during the current
year the official duties of the Adjutant
General will engage his whole time, I trust
that an adequate salary will be provided
for him. with an appropriation for the inci-
dental expenses of his office.

MILITARY EXPE.VSES PAST AND FTTTrRE,

You will perceive from the report of the
Adjutant General that all our military ex-
penses except an amount not exceeding

.MILITIA LAW.

I would especially invite your attention
to a remodelling of the present Militia la .v.
It was conceived in a time of peace, aud is
full of redundant and cumbersome provis-
ions, entirely unsuited to an exigency when
real active, energetic conduct is required.
The scheme of a law submitted by the Ad-
jutant General will, I trust, receive your
careful consideration.

TUE GREAT REBELLIOX MGOROUS MEA.SURKS

REC^UIRED.

One year ago it became my duty to e.x-
press the public sentiment of Minnesota in
reprobation of certain insurrectionary
movements in Southern States, for whicL
the result of the last Pi-esidential election
was the most unwarrantable pretext. The
American people generously believing that
these unconstitutional movements would be
relinquished, when the excitement of the
canvass of 1860 had subsided, and the
policy of the President elect should become
apparent, were slow to assume the armor
and attitude necessary for the suppression
of rebellion. This circumstance, the high-
est evidence of the just aud fraternal senti-
ments of the Northern people, gave to the
war, since waged against the integrity of
the American Union, au immense advantage
and has hitherto constituted its chief
strength. Even after the attack upon Fo)-t
Sumter, notwithstanding the great transfo--
matiou of the loyal States from the habits
aud pursuits of peace, to those of war. the
public mind has reluctantly yielded to the
conviction that an iusun-ection so wauton
and groundless, could become a foriuidable
rebellion. It has retjuired six months to
aiTay an army for the vindication of the
Constitution, and that entire period has
been essential to bring the American peo-
ple to the stern and uncompromising tem-
per which the crisis demands. Henceforth,
all that the laws of war will justify against
a foretign foe, and .ill that the first law of
nature warrants for the subjugation of dc~
mestic treason, even if necessary to th'J
extinction of human slavery, the undoubted
cause of all our troubles, must be made to
fall upon the crime and the criaiiuals of this
infamous rebellion.

NHNNESOTA DEMANDS ENERGETIf ACTION.

AV'hen I made the teuder before mention-
ed, in April, the Government regarded i
thousand men as our full contribution of
troops for the National defence, but within
the year this State has responded to the
call of the country by the muster and array
of about five times that number. Thes'j
five thousand soldiers have been turned as'ide
from their self-assigned and noble mission
of founding and developing a gre'at State.
Minnesota sends them far beyond her bor-
ders, with an emotion deeper than pride.
They are our most precious contribution
to a war which we hold sacred, and removeci
as we are from any contingent benefits re-
sulting from its prosecution, we freely make
this .sacrifice, as we hope to make all other}
which may be required. All that the peo-
ple of Minnesota, or their representativei;,
will ask in return, is, that the awful form of
the Constitution shall now be revealed to
vindicate the flag and Union of our fathers
against the pairicidal hand of treason at
home, and against any Government on earth
which shall take advantage of this hour of
our extremity to strike a coward blow at
our National honor and existence. I trust
that the impatience of our people will soon
be gratified by such an exhibition of Na-
tional power, as wiU bring this rebellion to
a speeay conclusion and vindicate the dig-
nity of the Government before the natiomi
of the world.

CONFISCATION OF SLAVES AND OTHER PROP-
ERTY OF REBELS.

In this connection, I deem it appropriate'
to refer to a specific topic. Severe meas-
ures are in course of execution by the reb-
els against the Union men of the South,
and the property of all who are resident.;
of the loyal States. The opinion is now
general, that further forbearance by Con-
gress in regard to the property of rebela
will be the reverse of a virtue. Individualn
who are openly in arms against the Unitec
States, have large interests in Minnesota,
and I feel well assured that a general Con-
fiscation Act, now so distinctly demanded
by public sentiment, will be speedily passed,
80 framed as to furnish adequate agencies
for the sequestration of all the property of
rebels, wherever situated, including the
enfranchisement of slaves. Such a meas-
ure will be regarded as in the nature of a
compensation, however partial and inade-
quate, for the pecuniary contributions which
every citizen expects to make to the resto-
ration of National authority.

Exe<-utive communications during the Ter-

the community of interetits between Minne-
sota and our neighbors, of British origin .
and connection, conlially unticii)ating no :
po.ssiljle interruption to our interchange of
good offices and friendly .sentinient.s. Chi
one subject only we have' been conscious of
meriting the rebuke of the kindred commu-
nities on both continents, who sj^eak the
English tongue. ( )n the subject of slavery,
itself inflicted upon the Western world by
the unscrupulous gived of British merchants
— we have admitted the full extent of om-
national misfortune and crime Had we
not reason to expect, under the circumstan-
ces, when the Republic was rent and torn
by the struggles of the monster, slavery,
that England, claiming to be the exemplar
and friend of Emancipation, would at least
have imitated the Levite of the parable
aud pas.sed by ou the other side Not so,
however AVith indecent haste the rights of
a belligen'iit power were conceded to au in-
surrection, who&e leading idea is slaveir,
and who.se success would be the bloody
n'storation of the slave trade over tropical
America; and it needed not the late explo-
sion of English hostility and prejudice, to
convince the world that no considerations I
of humanity, and civilizatiou can turn the
scale of Great Britain's hatred of republi-
can iastitutioas or her sordid devotion at
the .shrine of Mammon. Nations alien to
us in blood, in language, in institutions, ob-
serve a just and honorable neutrality. Our
conspicuous enemy iu Europe is that ^:)Ower
with whom we had credulously hoped to
co-operate in every stage of the long strug-
gle between freedom and o])prej.sion.

I do uot choose to anticipate future com-
plications with Great Britain. Let us rath-
er turn every thought and eu'-rgy to the
great duty enjoined by Providence upon
this generation, namely: to establish if nec-
essary, by exertions and sacrifices such a.s
our fathers accepted in 1776 aud 1812, the
Republic, one and indivisible. Let us
save our children, and childrens children,
from innumerable wars with the worst des-
potism known to human history, by the to-
td subjugation of the oligarchy which has
precipitated this struggle; aud by a victory
of the American Nation over .slavery and
treason, we .shall secure a fresh consecra-
tion of the soil long since dedicated bv our
father's God to the rights of man. 'This
accomplished we shall have ample means
and opportunities to discharge all our obli-
gations, including every just re'tribution as
a member of the family of nations.

lae Fioiucr uf jesitrday calUd .tttvutioii
lo ibe fiii-i ih.it the publioatiou ot the letter
iiai bad been uwardeil to that papei, .wid
duiuied it oj evidence that the Picncei'^ Id-
gitimate circulation wu.-^ greater than the
PaE^s. We have in another article chal-
Inged the correctness of the Pioneer's
tUim, and proposed a test which will settle
that qje>tijn.

We now propose to nhow the reasons why
it is quite useless to think ot competing with
Earle S. Goodrivh for anything in the way
oi prir.tin? eoutracts.

In May last the city priming was otlired
to the lowest bidder, in the usual nay,
botice was given that bids would be receiv-
ed until twelve o'clock on a certain day^
Ibe proposal ot the Pke5S oi&x was iluly
uaiJe out and taken to tho City Clerk'; of-
fice between tie hours of eleven and twelve,
and there delivered under seal. In reply to
ao inquiry, the Cit} Clerk informed ^ Mr.
Wheeler that no other bid had been handed
ir. This was a liltic surprising, and Mr.
Wheeler, apprehending iornething was
wrong, and that posi-ibly soiue means would
be used to ascertain the teruiii of our bid,
thought it prudent to wait in the City
Clerk's office until the expiration of the
hciiir lor receiving proposals. IJo did
wait until twelve o'clock, and nearly or
quite until one o'clock ; and feeling satisfied,
of course, that Ihe law could not be com-
plied with by any other party who should, by
any possible mi ars ascertain the rate ol our
bid, and thus bid lower, left, confident that
ihp priming would be awarded to ug.
Whut was our surprise when, at the next
meeting of the Board, m-cp bids wtro pre-
liented, and the Pioneer's bid. as a matter of
coarse, enough lower than ours to se-
cure the contract ! It was a most pal-
pabie violation uf a necessary rule univer-
sally governing the letting o! contracts — one
indi-persably necessary to the protection of
honest bi'fdeii that titi-s wa? accmplislvd.
Tiie object of the rule is to secure one
party bidding, from the possibility of an-
other party seeing or ascert.inirg the terms
of the firft bidder. Xow, wo arr unwilliog
to accuse any ore corjuecled with the City
Government with corruption or Iraud in
connection with this matter, but it would be
almost a legal presumption that our bid was
opened to enable the other bidiler to make
«ure of gettics enough Iiiwer to secure the
con tract.

But we have yet a still stronger example,
and ono, too, that the over-burdened tax-
payers of Ramsey rounty nre paying for
dearly.

Peisona! notice was given last July to the
Prkss and y^ioneer offices, that sealed propo-
sah would be received by the County Board
for doing the printing and advertisicg oi the
couDfy, tor the ensuing year. The Pkess
promptly sent in a proposal, and the proprie-
tor wailed in person upon the county board
at the time the bids were to be opened. But
lo I the P' oncer had made no proposal. Ii
inforancd the county b lard that it had not
time. The board, unwilling to seem to t.ikc
•dvantage of tho Pioneer's want of time,
and desirous of having competition, in ordei
tuui the best possible terms should be hud
lor the impoverished cuunty, decided to
postpone the letting untU their n^ xt month-
ly meeting. We were so notified, and per-
mitted to withdraw our bid, and to bid
again. This decision was right enough per-
haps, certainly it was, in the matter o! giv-
ing each party a lair and equal chance to
mjika new bid.s, and was ju;t what the City
Council ought to have done iu the cacO o!
the bid^ for the City p.inting When the
next month came round we let our foi iner
bid stand ; it was made ho Ijw that wc could
not afford to reduce it. The Pioneer office
came to time, and the P'oneer was /((({/" c
cent lower than we, on the price of adverti-
eing the delinquent tax list ; our bid being
one and a half cents per line, or description
while the Pioneer was one cent On other
items our bid was the lowest ; but the lax
lists being altogether the largest item ol
county printing, the contract was awarded
to the Pioneer. So far, all seemed right,
although it was a little remarkable that the
Pior.eer'$ bid should be just a shade lower
than ours A contract was duly enttrcd
iuto, and the Pioneer was to d ) the county
piinting for one year. Soon tlie list of lands
sold lor dtlinquont taxes in 18.59 had to be
republished with notice that time of redemp-
tion would expire, &c, and for this the
Pioneer wanted what— one cent a desci ip-
tioc, just what it had bid ? 'So— twelve cents
£ dv^riptioD, and b? some legerdemain it
w»ij enabled to tb>w tb:<t its co-ulracl war-
r;inted it in such demand. The matter was
fiDuliy coraprooiiicd on ten cents, so the Pio.
titer, OQ the chief item of county printing, is
geuiog by contract SEVEX FOLD what
tbfc Prkss offered to do it for. and could
iave done it at a profit.

Xm J»J«» ol Rameoy couuly, will you a)»o, aud will prove a good Clerk

hoeii this fact, that burdened and oppressed
as y"U lire with taxes throe-fold— oily, coun-
ty fliid State— yit iu this item nf oiunty
priuiinir .vou are requiretl jo ijhv ten r»i«i,-
r..\us when one and a half twould have suf-
ficed. We exculpate the boar.l from any
intci>*i"nal wrong in thi-" matter, although
it i'^ un iiitxplieable niysteiy to n« how the
Piaitesr wan enabled so completely to pull
the wool over the eyes ol the officers when
it was accomplishing this grand swindle.

Witli this experience, we are driven to
tbti inevitable cunclusioo that it is utterly
impt'S.^ible to secure fair dialing, or terms
that are anywhere near equal, iu competing
with the Pioneer for pnbiic contract.^. When
that offic?. under the forms of public bid-
dins, gets contracts under which they demand
and receive seven fo'd the pric(>8 lor which
we oflered to do the work, what other con-
clusion can be arrived at ?

pftratcd by him upon tho public treasury oi

TLe e'ection of officers of the Senate and
House of Representatives on Tuesday de-
serves, buth on account 01 the meu elected,
and the unanimity with which they were
chos<n, a more extended notice than the
mtr^ business report which we gave ou
VVednehday,
In the House the two chief officers-—

Speaker Benson and Chief Clerk Blakeiy

held the same po.-ition- ihe lastJscTsion, and
it was u high and worthily be.towed com
piimcnl to both, that they were re-nominated
without opposition in caucus, and re-elected
in the House by perfectly uuiiniraous votes
These concurring circumstances make their
election un honor and of more than ordina-
ry significance.

In Speaker Benson's case it is the first
time in the history of the Legislature that
'he same person has bten elected twice in
imnkdiate succession.

In onr knowledge uf the Legislature of
Minmsota — beginning with the first — we
have not known Mr. Benson's superior as a
presiding officer. But two or three that now
occur t) us as his eq'!;il,-, ,f. W. Furber,
John I). Luuden and Dr. David Day were
all good presiaing officers ; no one of them,
al' things considered superior to Mr. Ben-
son.

Mr. lilakely i^ also an excellent officer,
and wv can say the same of him, wo have
not known his superior.

J . Jay Knox, Assistaal Clerk, is a now
man to the Legi^l iture. He i.^a gentlcraau
in the highest meaning of the term, and em
inently well qualified for the responsible and
laborious duties of his position.

Levi Xutting, Sergeant at Anns of the
Hou^e, is one of the Old Guard,— u Repub
lican from the beginning. A man that we
honor for the purity, consistency aad 6rra-
oess of his principles. He was Sergeant at
Arms of the Senate two years ago, and is
therefore familiar with the duties of his po-
sition.

Mr. Ephraim McMurtric, ff Fillmore
county. Enrolling Clerk, D. B. Johnson, of
Mow; r county. Engrossing Clerk and Mr
U'ni. lieid, of Mankato. Fireman, arc new
men to the Legislature. They come fully
endorsed by the delegations ol ih ir respec-
tive localities, aiid will prove undoubtedly
good officers

]tev. J. C. Whitney, Chaplain ot the
House, is one of the Pioneer Clergymen of
the State, and a very worthy man. Our
sympathies are strongly with the old settlers
of Minnesota of all classes, and especially
With those who.-ie profession directed
their cffjrts to the moral and religious cul-
ture of the people, aud we are always glad
to se ' them ti-'cognizjd and appreciated.

OFFICER-JOF THE SK.VATE.

bicretary Driscnil was a member of the
lost Uouie, in which he was deservedly pop-
alor. He is a brother EJitor, and of courFe
a gentl -uian and a scbclar— we will not add
the additional dwsoriptivo phrase, that fin-
ishes the pel f:ct character of the Southwest
—a good judge of whiskey— fur it would
not b.' aj)plicable. Mr. Driscoll is well
quuliQ.d lor his position.

The same may be .said of Mr. Daily, from
S'e.lo county, the accompIi.-?hed Assistant
Clerk of the Senate.

Dr. Geo. F. Childs, Sergeam-al Arms of
the Senate is, like .Mr. Xutling, one of the

IMPORTANT TO ADVEKTISER$i—

THE i.Erri::K i.ij»r auauueo

TO THE 1*I0NE1:K.

Under the above heading the Pioneer oi

yesterday am ib;{ other sfalemeots, has the

following :

The Pres,s has repentedly claimed a larger
Circulation thaa the Pioiuer. It made sucb a
c aim Id March last; when uu exumiuation ol
the bocks of the two olKess showed itiav tli«
Pionttr's list was more ttian a third the largest.
At least an equal dispariiy now exists. This is
u fact of im^i'jrtance to advertisers, who are
iuicit-sted ui having their notices reach the
jjreatest number ot readers.

We jironouDce the above, so .ar i\s it
claims a larger general circulation for the
Pioneer, than the Prrss, unqualifiedly false,
and challenge a comparison of tha circala-
lions of our respc:tive Editions; as well as
the total circulation of the Press with that
of the Pioneer the same to be ascertained
by any correct data or proof that may be
agreed upon, and mutually satislactoiy to
the clerks of our respective offices.

When the Pbfss was but three months
old, we asserted upoa what we supposed to
be reliable information that even at thai time
our circulation was the largest.

The Piuneer challenged the correctness of
our statement, and we promptly submitted
the question to proof ascertained by the
clerks of the offices, resulting in Bliowiog
that at that time — when the Press was but
three moDths eld— it had not attained a
circulatiou equal to the Pioneer. We pub-
licly admitted the fact, and gave the Pioneer
the full b ntfit of such admission. We now
call on it to test the question in the same
prompt manner, and to make the result
public.

It is po-sible 'that within the city of St.
Paul, or the d';!ivery ol the P.5st Office, the
P<onfe/s circulatiou exceeds by a few copies
that of the Prks.s. Of this we are by no
means sure, b.it we knew our circulations
were so nearly the same that it was usdess
to compete with the Pioneer for the Poet
Office iisr. Somo of the reasons we have
elsewhere expiainixl. But within a radius
of ten miles from St. Paul we have unques
tionably the largest circulation. And our
whole circulaUon greatly exceeds that of
the Pioneer.

you that the Minnesota Uallery arrived here
on tbe 20th of this month aud is now comfort-
ably quartered in Benton Barracks, the exten-
sive Camp of Insliuetion for the Department
of ttie Missouri.

Our journey from Fort Snellingto this place
was completed without accident, the boys got
along very well, and although we suffered some
within the first weelc after our arrival here,
probably on account of the change of climate
and diet, I am happy to say, that at this mo-
ment there is only one of our men in the hospi-
tal, and be is only slightly sick.

Capt. Von Minden's Minnesota Cavalry com-
pany welcomed aud e.scorted us here, and last
Saturday w had the pleasure of joining that
Company for the purpose of welcoming and
escorting the 2J and 8d Companies Minnesota
Cavalry, which arrived on that day.

We have made our requisitions for tbe equip-
meut of our battery, and although it seems as
it requisitions for pieces aod horses could not
be filled very promptly, I am in hopes that the
proper authorities will favor us a little, for it
seems that our company makes a very good
impression, and the officer before whom we
were inspected and mustered to day for pay-
ment, made soma very flattering remarks in
regard to tbe appearance of our Company, and
promised that he would do all he could to ex-
pedite tbe issue of our equipment.

A few days ago I handed your letters of io-
troduction to Mnjor General Halleck and was
very much pleated to find in bim an officer
who seems to be not only a man of remarkable

RECIPHOCITT TREATY
WITH CANADA.

The question of abrogating this treaty is
exciting considerable attention in tbe East-
ern cities. This treaty which was entered
into in 18.')4 with Great Britain, is not ter-
minable for ten yeara without the consent ol
both parties. At the end of the ten years,
it may be terminated at the will ot either
party, on a notice of one year, which notice,
however, may be given before the ten years
expire.

Tbe Washington RepuUican takes decided
ground ogiiinat the treaty. It says :

"Tbe changes in our financial policy,made
and to be made under the exigencies uf war
would of themselves compel us to give tbe
notice tor llie termination ol this treaty
Our lumberman, fishermen, wheat growers,
raisers of stock, &c., are to be heavily taxed
upon imported goods, and probably by ex
cise?. They cannot consent lobe exposed
to the free competition of tbe people of the
British Provinces, producing the same arti
cles and with the great advantage of light
taxation. Nor, looking merely to the di-
rect edVct upon our treasury, can we now
permit the free import of (-^ay) twenty mil-
lions of dollars in value annually from our
colonial neighbors."

As an additional reason for this step, the
Republican alludes to the intense hatred of
liie United States exhibited in tbe British
Provinces, during the recent diplomatic cri
sis It continues :

" The Provincial newspapers have been
really ferocio'is, and as we know Irom an
extensive corre.spondence, both in Canada
iind in the Lower Provinces, have only re-
flected the popular impulse about them.

•• Before this Reciprocity Treaty wa^
framed all the tendencies of opinion in Can-
ada and New Brunswick were towards an-
nexation to the Unitt'd States. But Irom
the moment that a free aceess to our mar-
kets raised Ihem from business stagnation
aod poverty, to a sudden prosperity, they
began to return to their loyalty."

Of the origin of this treaty we have the
following Jtatemeiit from the same Jmrnal :

" It is no secret here that the Reciprocity
Treaty, so far as it was a political scheme,
*as gotten up by Soothfro managers, who
were in power in I8.i4, ttr no other purpose
tlii'.n. to prevent the annexation of Lanada.
They availed tbemeelve?, of course, of the
aid of certain norihprn intenst.a, (prioci-
pa ly transportation interests.) which would
be benefited by the proposed treaty. But.
in it-* pi htical origin, it was a stroke of
•Southern stra'egy. It would have been de
feated at last but for a trick ot the late
Jud.{e Bailey, of Vif^inie. then Chairman
of tbe Uoase Committee oo Foreign Af
fairs."

'i'he Nf w York tVorld In discussing the
same qnestion ?ay3 :

" The Reciprocity Treaty has not, as we
expected, drawn tanada toward-t Oi'. It
has, on tbe contrary, filled her with malice
and insolence. We cannot affird to be
building up such an enemy on our border, Be-
fore thot treaty, th'? public mind of Cana-
da wa? leavened to a very con<?idereble ex-
tent with an annexation spirit. In fact, an-
nexation would liuve been, iu lime, almost a
physical necessity, for tbe provinces could
not live and thrive, so shut up from free in
tercourse with tbe outer world. We opened
our avenues to her, and from that time she
ciased to be discontented, and tbe word an--
nexation was never more heard Irom her.
With good reason The Recipn city Treaty
gave her all the advantages that could have
come from a membership of the American
Union, with none of its liabilities."

INTERESTING FKOm
CAROLINA.

A correapondeat of tbe Philadelphia Bui
Ittin, writes an interesting letter from the
vicinity of Port Royal, South Carolina, from
which we take a ft-w extracts. The trip
from Fort Monroe is thus described :

From Fortress Monroe lo Port Royal
sounds much farther than it really is. We
embark, we eat, we sleep, we enjoy the
pleasant sunshine en the upper deck ; we
v7onder that no sail appears in tbe distance
to break the monotooy cf the voyage ; we
steam Up the harbor ; we disembark aod
bre surprised at landing am-mg Palmetto
treat, and just beside the embryo King Cot-
ton. We think over the events of the voy«
age. They are few— the run seems remar-
kably short and yet everything around us
betokens a siranjfe land. The broad, smooth
harbor, filled with masts ; the barren, des-
olate looking islands which snrround it ; the
formidable entrenchments, and the mighty
guns which overlook the parapet, tell us in
language plain, that we are in the enemy V
country — that we tread soil but lately dis-
puted, now quietly occupied by the rightful
authorities.

Of G».neral Sherman the writer thus dis- .
cours'-s:

A short walk through saod ankle deep,
and we atop before a couple of common
wall tents. The General is in, but now
much engaged with officers of the vessel in
which we came. We wait a moment and
are ushered in. General Sherman sits there
alone — quiet, rather dignified, perfectly sel!-
po88es.«ed, w th more iron in hs count nance
than any man I ever saw. He says but Ut-
ile, and that little to the point, and seema to
understand everytbing connected with his
department thorough y.

Ue regrets, as must all who desire the
suppre.>6ion of the rebellion aud tbe restora-
tion of peace and prosperity, that tbe army
under his command is so small and inefficient.
The forts are to be occupied, the Govern-
ment agehts protected in the discharge o'
their duties, extensive fortifications are to
be built, the 81 a coast from tbe mouth ol
the Savannah river to the upper point of St.
Helena Sound, is to be defended ; all this
and. much more is to be done with an army
ot less than 15 000.

From Tybee loland at the mouth of the
Savannah river, tbe extreme left wing of the
army, to Otter Island in ihe Northern side
of St. Helena Sound, tbe extreme ri/ht wing
of the army, there are at least fifty miles of
sea coast to be held and put in a state of
perfect defense. This is a great work and
r quires men. The contraband experiment
I erj has proved an entire failure, and as u
cco-itqueuce tbe soldiers must do tbe work

In regard to tbe strength of Fort Pulaski,
near Savannah, there aeems to be two opin-
ions, A deserter from that Fort says :

" 'Ihe rebels have f( rty five guns in posi-
tion af that fort, besides several mortars ;
that tlie gnns used iu their attack on our
icrces at Tybi-e Island a fc-w days ago were
not their heaviest oni 8, and a'»sigos as a rea
f-on for their not using thtir heaviest, that
thsy desire to keep us ignorant of their real
strength until the attack is made. They
coBsidcr themselves perfectly secure in that
position, but so they did here."

A TBAVCLlNCi RBBEL. POST OF-

FiCK.

We have already .iv. n brief particulars
ol the arrest of a tvoniin named Mrs Bsv-
ley, near Old Point, who was making h^r
way North, under a flig of truce, a''jd upon
whose per-oti various coulrabai'.il a-ticles
were found. The correapoude'at of the New
York Tiibune, writing on f^je subject, gives
a more extended account of the iame int' r-
esting event ;

•• Saturday alteirnoon last, there came
from Norfolk two ladies, direct trom Rich
mood ; one oi the « from Rbodr Island,
whtwe id.nlity was egtabli.-hed beyond all
dispute, and was accompanied by her son,
released Irom imprisonment. The other, by
the name of Baxley, was iiave!ing on the
usual paFs. On the way to Old Point, she
made inquiries ol Captuin Milward wheth
er she would be subjected to an examina-
tion at Old Point, and as she was informed
that Provo-t Marshal Davis, about whom
she seemed anxious to know as much
as possible iu advance, would proba-
bly ucl according to circumstances, sbe ap-
peared slightly uneasy. Oii arriving here,
sbe was not submitted to a rigid examina-
tion, but allowed to proceed to Baltimore.
Capt, Davis' a spicions had become arous-
ed, however, and as the boat was about to
It-ave, he particularly charged bis deputy,
St-rg.ant Brigham, of Fortress Monroe,
who constantly goes up and down tbe bay,
to keep a close wateh on her. This officer
formed her acquaintance during the evening
but she did not suspect the capacity in
which he was acting. Tbe suspieions com-
municated by Capt. Davis were strengtb-
tned. bat it was deemed prudent to com
manicaie ihem to no one, nor to take any
seps before morning. At tbe brc-aklast
tiible, Mrs Buxley, (for she appeared to
be a married womat.) threw off ail disguise
and avowed hersell a Secessionist, which
entirely convinced Deputy Marshal Brig
ham that be wait on tbe right track.

The boat > rrived at Baltimore, and Mrs,
B. went ashore and engaged a back. Re-
turning to the boat, she gathered up her
luggage, which consisted of a satchel and
two or three parcels, and was about to leave
tbe boat finally, when tbe offictr informed
her that he desired a few momeiits further
conversation in the proper character, as
Deputy Provost Marsha! for Old Point,
acting under tl>e orders of General Wwij.
Professirg some surprise, sbe accompanied
him to the man's saloon of the boat, where
sbe was informed that she wunld have to
submit to have her person examined. This
piece of information threw her off her bal-
ance, in fact, completely broke her down.
She confessed anJ taking her b n ett f o n
her head, disclosed the fact that it was lined
with letters, and taking ofi her shoes and
stockings, brought out another batch, at
the same time protesting oo her honor and
character that they were all that she had in
h<rr possession. But tbe officer who had
imbibed no very elevated opinion of either,
declined to accept the assurance, and in-
formed her that the examination ma«i go
on. Meanwhile, Provost Marshal McPhail,
who hau been sent for, arrived with a fe*
male to make the search, which was in a
state room. We need not here confine oar-
selves to minute detail further than to state
that nffiotr Brigham, who was at the door,
soon had his attention attracted by a tKhe
and a scream in the state room. Opening
tbe door, he beheld tbe searcher with her
hand^ griped about the throat of the
searched, who was nearly in a nude stale,
and who clenched in one ol her hands a
paper, of which ihe officer (it being no time
for special modesty) speedily took posses-
sion.

Mrs. Baxley felt very indignant ; in fact
she was amazed, perfectly furious, and un-
dertook to make an exhibition of herself, o
la Varieties, in the saloon of tl e boat.
The paper in question was a commission
s'gnod by Jefl'erson Davis, appointed Dr.
Sepatamua Brown, of Baltimore, surgeon
in the Confcdeiate army. This, with
other papers and letters, was ingeniously
placed in the lining of a part of her dress,
so as to increase the fulness, so becoming
a well proportioned woman, though sel-
dom suspected of owing its graceful lines
to commissions signed by Jefferson Davis.
Tbo search was thorough. Letters and
papers of more or less importance were
lound in all sorts ot places. Mrs Baxley
now had little left to conceal, and she was
perfectly feronous. Re -clothing herself,
she was taken into custody at the Provost
Marsbal's office Here she undertook to
convey a warning to some one — probably
Brown— hy throwing ont of the window a
peace of paper which had written on it,
" Flee : I am caught ! Ail is lost !" The
me<sage tell into other hands than those
for whom it was intended. Dr. Brown
was shortly after lodged in Fort Mc Henry,
and proper steps taken in regard to other
persons implicated by the pHpers found on
Mrs Baxlev who is retained in custody.
To officer Brigham she confessed that but
a short time ago, she left Bali imore, made her
way across Maryland to the Potomac, an i
to Richmond ; to d her adventures, which
were marked by many a striking incident,
with bitter lamentations, and with almost
a broken heart, mourning the miscarriage
of all her undei takings.

We republished, th^ other day. the vio -
lent tirade with which the London 'limes
undertook the work ot writing
down President Lincoln's Message with tbe
British public. "Tbe style of the Americen
Pr©^ident," says this sincere and conscienti-
ous commentator, 'has fallen with !he fort-
unefi of the republic. It is really wonderful
how any one placed in the position of Mr.
Lincoln could have taken tbe trouble to pro-
duci! so strange a medley, and so incomposite
a rhapsody.

These gentle phrases, let our readers note,
were uttered by the Times on the 11th of
December, 1861. Turning back for half a
century to the files of the same journal for
Deceml>er, 1811, we find it discoursing in a
similar strain respecting the Message of
President Madison. "We can not help," it
sayji, 'before we conclude, bestowing a word
or two upon the style and composition of
this document. It Is barbarous beyond all
conception. Such jargon was uever before
put together, instead of language, in any
offi'iial paper whatever, except, perhaps. In

Of the Times' criticism in 1811, William
Coobett said that the brief passage we have
quoted contained no legs than three gram-
matical errors and one instance of the most
grc«9 and stupid tautology. And the read'
er who examiues the disquiMtion of the
sane journal in l66L will be convinced that
its style has not mended with its fortune.
Alter the lapse of half a century, it still de-
lig Its In ?imilar bad language, and manifests
the same malignant spite and ruffianly pas-
sion. In 1811, the 'limes jeered at Mr.
Mudifon because his Message was "not de-
cisive," and did not pronounce poeitively
upjn the claims of the then belligerent pow-
ers. And to-day it flings the same taunt at
Ml*. Lincoln because he was prudent eoongb
not to compromise himself with respect to
Muson and Siidell.

While thus assailing Mr. Lincoln, the
Times plainly discloses the inner cause of
thi) astoni-ihing sympathy which has lately
been manifested by tbe governing clas.ses of
England for the slave- breeding and slave-
triiding revoluti nists of tbe South. "Plt-
po-,9 are actually found to wish for a re^tric-
ticn of the suflrage ; some have even been
heard to pronounce the horrible name of
monarchy." *Tf Mr. Lit^cotn's description
of the South is indeed true," continues the
7 -mes, 'he has given hi-< antagonists a bet-
ter title to European pympathy than they
I hfi.ve hitherto possessed," Here is tbe truth
at last. Jeff. Davis and his compeers find
favor in the eyes of those for whom the
7 ime.i t<peaka, not merely because they are
attempting to found a Government on negro
S a very, but because, as Mr. Lincoln has
expressed it, "they fight against the rights
ol the people," or as it was stated in the last
State Convention of Louisiana, because
they mean to "dig the grave of Republican
lii)erty." For this reason the revolting oli-
garchs andslavebolding conr^pirators of the
Sautb are fondled and cheered in their atro-
cious enterprise. The same purpose pre-
Tiiils among them now which Cobbett des-
cribed in 1811. Now, as then, it is their
bi;arly desire to encourage "a revolution
that would put an end to the only Republic
that remains to prove that a Uovernment
founded on political equity can exist in a
season of trial and difficulty, or is calc alated
to insure either security or happiness to the
people."

Writing ot the battle of Drainsville, a
soldier who took part in it says :

The enemy aimed low and shot at our
leg-; but we aimed higher— up about the
head and breast, where they live. Nearly
all their killed were shot io the head aod
breat-t. One poor fellow whom I saw was
woundfd on the top of the head. His scalp
was cut clean off. lie was eittin;^ with his
bavk against a tree, and was evidetitly out
ol his mind. He had a piece ot etiik in his
hai d which be cootinued to look at and
roll between bis fingers. We talked to
him but could not draw his attention from
ibe stick. He died in the evening before
we left.

Gov. Pickens, of ."-oath Carolina, boa
called for twelve thousand volunteers for
twelve months' Hervice, unless sooner dis-
charged," aod threatens, unless this call is
attended to, that a draft of the luilitia nacn
will be executed according to law.

INTERESTING STATISTICS OFI 861.

We find in the New York Herald some
interesting statistics of the year just closed :

There were in the United States during
the last twelve months 183 firp'. (where the
bs8 at each was not less than $20 000) in-
volving an aggregate of $18,020,000. In
the previous year there were 251 fires and
the loss was |1 5 697 000 Ot the losses
the pfist jeir ^8,630 000 was in the loyal,
and 86 330,000 in the peceded States, the
latter includicg 87.341,000 by tbe latf fire
in Charleston. But including ail losses by
fire in the entire country we have the fol-
lowing table of estimates;

There were 53 railroad accidents in 1861
involving lojs of life, killinsr lOI persons,
and wounding 4.59, while in 1860 there were
74 such accidents, killing 57 and wounding
315. There were also 19 steamboat acci-

The people of the North are not doing
all the complaining of the Government, as
will appear irora the Richmond Examiner,
ol the 28ib, which says :

The stars in their course ionght against
Sisera, and tbe Lord of the stars, the sun
and the earth, has laid bis band on our op
pressor, Klse the Confederate Government
would have been proven a vieek reed. No
men have be ter reason to sing a A'ci no6M
Domine than those who have apparently
held the reins of power in this country.
Not their wisdom, not tbeir loresight or
dexterity, has wrought these wonderful
results. From tbe first day of the revolu-
tion to this hour they have exhibited a want
ot prescience aod enterprise, a lack of the
larger statesmanship, and an inability to
comprehend the nature of the movement
they were in, which tbe historical philo-so
pher who shall hereafter disect their actions
and motives will declare to have been truly
pitiable. The chips on tbe tide could
scarcely have less to do with its ebb and
flow. Their policy has been a series of
makwhift*, which have been annihilated by
each succeeding wave; their calculations
for a moral earthquake resemble the sand
hosues of children in the stage road ; we
have yet to hear of one measure either equal
to the event, or in time for it. Virginia
had the power to render tbe separation
peaceabl-; she rendered it sanguinary by
her incapacity to credit the possibility of
that separation. The Confederacy had lime
to prepare an army which might have ter-
minated the contest in a month, and the
Congress at Montgomery could not believt
the war was even probable till Alexandria

Mr. K.tlly, ot Pa., had voted thanks to

IBE PIONEEU SLFPOKTINIir IHE
A D.m \ liiTR ATION.

It is cerlaiuly amusing to see its spah-
uodic tffiFts ot liie Pinneer with the old
pro Slavery habits and ^ytnputhies, trying
to be administration organ. We will ni-t
«ay trying to h^ Republican, ftr that is a
character so loreii^a to the parts it bos been ac-
customed to act that, with a consciousness oi
its inability to do anything iikejusticcto tiie
charc'Cter, even in the hollow mimicry of
tU' stage, that it. docs not altenipi it. But
U) carry out the contract, by which itic rjuul
pro quo must he given in some Hhape, it
trects a creature of its ima<;ination, invesl-
jac it with certain attributes, the outbirlh
of its own character— ja?t a.s the pagan idol
worshipper iuvests his god with his own
hamin pasj-ious — which it calls the National
Administration — ^i unlike the Abraham
Lincoln that the great Republican party
elected in I'^GO — as unlike Abraham Lincoln
the President of 18G2. surrounded with such
conoiitutional advisers a Wm. II. Seward,
feiiinioij I'. Chase, .Simon Cameron and
Gidet^n Welles, all o! whom iu times past,
the Pioneer was wont to denoanee as the
blackest of all Black Republican*) — as Jug-
gernaut is unlike Jehovah.

Considerations uf prudence may restrain
Mr. Lincoln Irom hastening events, the
f'llfilmcnt of which he kooivs is only a ques-
tion of limf; but wc can never believe that
the author of the cxpresfious •' that there
was an eternal antagonism between Freedom
and Slavery ; that the country couid not
endure half free and halt slave ; and that
there i.cver would be peace until the people
rested in the belief that slavery was in pro-
cess of certain extinction" — we can never
beli^'ve that t.he author of these ^en■iments
has become a convert to tlie doctrines ol
Joun C. Calhoun, or that he wi!! prove
recreant to the principles and professions
that elevated him to the Presidency. We
do r.ot believe that Wm. J I. .Seward and
Siilmon P. Chase, the life-lone champions
ni anti^slavery, will siultity theiusclvis as
members of the Cabinet, by abandoning
tiiojr principles.

All cbis, however, by way of introducing
an e^ciract from a brave polilicul leader in
the Pioneer of last Wedne>iday, in whici',
tift'-r carving its wooden god, investin? it
with pro-slavery atlribute.s. and denouticiu!,'
as "radicals and extremes' all men who
will not fall down and worship it^ — quite an
improverneDt liiese terms on its old epithets
of bltcfc Rtpubiiean and Abolitionist — it
argues the question against the radicals and
extremes after this fashion :

The adoption of the radical policy [using
the til ares to crush ttie rebelliunj would lead
to the political aod social equuliiy of utterly
iucongruous racps. If we reuson from no
bigtier basis ihaa a single but universal
ciiaracterisiic of our race — thai man is a figlit-
ing animal,— we there find ibe groundwork
of the fact that the soldiers of a nation are
always the favorites of its people. Those who
risk iheir lives io defence of the liberties of
a country, have everywhere been regarded as
entitled to the largest shire in the fruits of
their success. And it is i.ittiuult to see how
the country could accept the military services
of negro slaves, as a class, in this war for
the preservation of the Union, without plac-
ing Itself under obligations which it could not
disregard, to accord to them alt the political
rights springing from the institutions that hud
been saved through their instrumentality.
The step from political to social equality is
but !> short one; and it is ono which, if the
political barrier between the races be broken
down, will be sure soon to be taken. The
radical policy, tluTefore, which begins with
aniversal emancipation and militaiy service,
mui»t lead to political equality, and end in
society ainaigainatiuu, in the debasement of
oar people, and the destruction of our Gov
•rnmcnt.

It will be objected that the recedenis do
not ju.stly the apprehensions here entertain-
ed. I'he case of the enrollment of slavts by
General JacUson, and the fact that, though
manumitted, political and social privilegeJ
were never accorded to them, will bo cited.
This case lorms no precedent whatever. It
was not a race thus emancipated, and employ-
ed in military service, hut in inconsiderable
fraction. The mass of their class still remind-
ed in bondage; and every suiro'tnding in-
fluence forbade ttie desire or thought of any
essential change iu their condition. But the
proposition ol the radicals now, is, to emanci-
pate the ract; and to place them, as a rate,
on a military footing with our citiien sold-^
lery, who comprise the pick and flower of tho
iniellittenoe and best manhood of the country.
With the shacklesof their bomlage thus strick-
en from their !imb«; trained in the use of
arms, and admiited to an equal military
•ttudmg with our chivalric volunteers; the
negro lace would not only have tbe desire
for, but they would possess the power to en-
force, a recognition ot their rights to political
and social equality with the whites. And in
tbi assertion of tliis right, our whole politi-
cal hiatory proves that they would have the
aid and ohampion ship of a proportion of the
radicalsof the North, who are now clamorous
for their universal emancipation, and their
adoption into tbe grand army of the Union.

Uow pat it puts tbe old argument that

emancipating slaves necessarily leads to

»m,ilgamatioQ of ract-!^. the staple of pro

siayery argument for the last third ot a

o'Dtury. Mr. Lincoln more effectaally

squelched tbi?, than we ever knew it to be

by any other man, when he said that 'he

Dsver waa able to appreciate tbe force of

Tut- u'ouveextrnei uetrds iiueoiniueiii fmm
UP. It fOi.tains within itself it« own refu-
iation. It is curions, however, how the ar-
gument that accepting the ar'-i>tiuice ot tbe
slaves to crush tht rebellion would lead to
social iquality (!te is sa^'tiiiiied by the ad-
mi-^sion that the slaves are capable of a.s-
sertijig their poiitica! rights. Ibis shows
hopeiul progriw in the Pionen. und ot it-
sell dis.-ipates lue old doctriue by which
alone slavery has tH'en defended— that the

such public imp ^rtauce ai to have claimed
the special notict- ot the Kxeculive— and
that, iu construing the paseagee quoted as a
ptrsonal attack up-jn him, in all probability
his vanity merely translated the suggestions
of an accusiug conscience. If he w.uld
look at ;|-.e «ubjcct calmly in this light — he
would probably see that the Governor waa
making a plain statement of gccerai tinau-
ciui and statistical results as reported by the
various departments— leaving details to tbe
offices to which they more legitimately be-
long. Lost January tbe Secretary of State
made the following official statement o( the
printing expenses of 1858:

••The total cost of printing to the State, for
the \ears 18.53 9— one Legislature— was |t52,-
9t)y. There was also appropriated during ihe
Same session, certain other moneys for ar-
rearages in Territorial printing, sums amount-
ing in all to $25,352, making atotal appropria-
tions by the single Legishiiure of 1S53 of |83,-
308 tor printing purposes."

There you see it, Mr. Goodrich, officially
set down a year ago in an Executive docu
ment, and never denied, and 'Gov. Ramsey's
lie" consists in announcing the general fact
thus set forth in the public records upon the
authority of an Executive officer, a .some-
what better authority for the material-) of a
Governor's message on the whole than Mr.
Goodrich is popularly supposed to hi-.

We have heretofore shown that Mr.
Goodrich has reason to be sensitive on the
subject of the printing bills which absorbed
the huge appropriations ot 1858.

We ore forced to add that his gratuitous
and uneasy a.>suraptiou i responsibility for
the Legislative appropriations themselves,
confirms a conviction long entertained by
the public , and resting on very tangible evi
loDces, that those appropriatiaus were pro

be paid and discbargtd. and "il o'hcrs l';r-

to be noticed, if at all, in an E.icecutive com-
munication, and pi oclaimed amid thf 5tat'-
ly ceremonies ol a Gubernatorial Inaugura-
tion, lie assumes therefore, that the fol-
lowing passages from the (Jovernor's mes-
sage had a direct personal reierenv'-e to him
and tells hia readers that hii name was only
not mentioned because, mark you ! that
stunniiiir patronymic had been previously
iniioiluced, by the Governor's connivance,
in the columns of the Press— so that to read
the Governor's mes.sage understandingly,
you must be sure and take the Pbe^s. The
paj^sagts which Goodrch conceives tu \\f
intended for him are as follows :

In no direction are the fruits of the policy
of retrenchment more conspicuous than in the
Item of printing, which now amounts to but
one seventh ot the sum expended for that
purpose in 1S.5S ; when, indeed, the printing
bills largely exceeded the whole present cost
of the State Government.

******

It was not the mere consideration that %\^')<),-
000 annually miglit be saved to our imnover-
ished people in the administration of the Gov-
ernmeni with advantage K) its etliciency ; it
was not to satisfy the honest citizen ikut a
wanttjul annual txptnditare of nearly ^90,000
fur prii.tii.g mig/U be hentjicially reduced tonne
half that gum, immediately important as
these objects are, that I have so long pet sisted
in urgiuij an economical policv ; but, after
having afforded the needea relief to an over-
burdened people, it was to hold out to the
great army of emigrants whom the inevitable
course of events must soon turn toward the
virgin lands of the Northwest, the assurance
that here, in Minnesota, their industry was not
to be lianipered, nor their aspiration"thwarted
by oppressive taxes for the support of official
e.xtravagance, &c., &c., Ac.

Now in all this there is not one word
about Earle S. Goodrich. The Governor
is eontrabting the happy effects oi recent
legislation, prudence and economy with the
bad results of pa.st legislation, reekle&-ne.-^s
and extravagant. His message ^as ad
dres-ned to the Sf«te Legislature in the exer-
cise of a duty irapo.sed upon him by the
coiistiiution ; and Ihe passages quoted, to
all appearance, are dc?igned to impress that
honorable body with a proper sense 0 f
their legislative duties in view of the legis-
lative examples cited. But Mr. Goodrich
takes u diflerent view of the matter. He
admits i!;at hi' name was not mentioned,
but ngards it as u perfectly hgitimatc
assumption, thai these gtneral references to
e

WH.\X THE PEOPLIt: THINK.

As might have beeti expected, the ap-
pointment of tbe y ioneer as one of the pa-
pers to do the Federal Piintingio Minneso-
ta, creates considerable astoni-hment among
the people of ih'^ State. Not the newspapers
alone are at a Itjss to know tho reason why
the Republican j inrnal.s of the State should
be pushed aside when public patronage is to
be dispensed, and papers and men rewarded
who have exerted all thtir influence to pro-
vent the elevation of the verv persons who
have tha. patronage to bestow, but the
people art- begiutiing to inquire Why and
Wherefore.

We have received numerous private let-
ters on the subject, from one of which (da-
ted St Peter, Jan. Tth.) we quot"* the iol-
lowing :

" I see by a notice in your paper, that the
U, S. Government hat, designated the Pi.onfer
as one of the papers to do the Federal printing
in Minnesota. We cannot understand it here.
It la generally looked upon as an outrage upon
the Republican party of the State. But what
were our Representatives about that they per-
mitted such an outrage to occur under their
eyes. Knowing as they do the unreliability
of the Pionttr, and the hypocrisy and utter
dishonesty of Earle S. Goodrich, we cannot
see why the printing should be given to that
Ishma^litish sheet, in preference to the able de-
fenders of Republicanism iu Minnesota. There
must be somethi <g wrong— some collusion be
tween our Representatives at Washingtoi; and
the Earle of Pomatum. I believe if a protest
agaiust this outrage were circulated, almost
every Republican in the State would sign it.
There is much more indignation expressed on
the subject than is generally suppoed."

This body met on the 8lh. The proceed-
iogs were not harmonious and rather farci-
cal at the commencement. On the 9;h, J.

A brief report of the Port Royal ferry

All al!u.=<ions of that sort he construes a^ a

which his conscience suggests to his vanity.

the exercise of Gubernatorial functions
A veracious Governor, be tiiiiik«i, ad-
dres-ing the Legislature upou u subject
so intimately conuectcd with the Douse of
Goodrich, and necessarily involving that na-
merou.s, highly respectable and many.^ided
family— ought to have gone more into de-
tails, and stated how much went to Eirle
S. Goodrich, how much to Goodrich, Som-
ers A Co , and how much to the Pioneer
Printing Company, and how much was for
printing done by the House of Goodrich in
1858, and how much for the year previous-
It is quite possible however that the edi-
torial refNTCseotatiTe of that fkmily may b«

Island, which he did, with little loss.
_ Norfolk papers lie this affair into a rebel
victory, and talk about bayonet charges,
of which there were none. Ol the next
day's operations no account is received.

The Norf)ll{ Diy Bjok of tbe fith says
the Ella Wortley, now blockaded at
Charleston, escaped from Nassau, while the
Blanibeau, forbidden by British authorities
to coal there, was gone for coal. The
vessel was chased and Imrmlessly fired
upon by the blockading fleet. A Ctnfed-
erate bearer oi dispatches from Europe
was a passenger. The other passengers
were Scotch and English.

Several more fires bad recently occurred
in CUarleston.

Dog Si.eddi.vo — The bovs of St. Paul
appear to have, this winter, gone extensively
into training dogs for drawing their sled.^
through the street-, 'i'hese faithful animali?
are used for purposes of pleasure by their
juvenile owners, »s well as for utilitarian
purposes. They haul the boys about, and
convey package.^, with which tbe boya are
entrusted, from one part of tbe city to an-
other. So many dog sleds were seen on the
streets yesterday, that St. PunI might have
been mistaken, by a stranger, for some place
farther north where they have no horses.

The best trained dog iti the lot that we
have ^een, and perhaps the ctrongest one
compared with his weight, is " Carlo." be-
lon;iing to. and dnvt.n by Masttr Ceorge
B.it. »lie m«:s.*enger of the Press < ffiee.
Carlo doe.^ not weigh over forty pounds, and
yet be can take his barrel ol flour upou hirs
little sled, and haul it over any level street
in the city oii a ' dog trot" On Friday
! he drew a casting, weighing 112 poond-,
from (iilman'.s loundry to the Pkk.«3 tfSce
without slopping lo rest during tiie ascent

he carries the papers and other printed mat.,

drawing after iiim twice tho weight ol him-
self, (ieorge thinks be will soon have Carlo
trained so that Le need not accompany him

NATIONAL BANKRUPT LAW.

Although the Jict nt 1841 has left an an-
Nivory odor attached to the name of a bank-
rupt law, yet there are very cogent rea-
•ons lor passing n permanent statute, op-
erative throughout the country. The in-
tprests of creditor demand it as loudly as
those of debtors and both cla-ves will be
benefited to have the financial wrecks of
0(ir recent panics cleared away. The fol-
lowing extract from the New York memo-
rial pp aks words of truth :

• The debtor is still required to pay. while
the creditor will not allow him to accumu-
late capital for the transaction of business,
nor permit him to borrow of u friend and
invest it in trade. Honesty is not tne best
policy for him. A character for integrity
is woree than useless: for if he can point to
a pure and Bpotiess life — if he can show
that his industry, integrity and ability, in
tile various situations in wiiich he has been
placed, have been unim|ieuchable — hi^ cred-
itors will grasp their claims with more ten-
acity under a belief that they can ytt wricg
Bometbirg from his hard earning.^, or fioni
th:; sympathy offritnds or relatives. If.
however, a debtor ie reputed to be dishon-
est, dissipattd, and generally dissolute in his
habits, his creditor is always ready and wiU
linj? to compromise for his claim, and take
anyttiing he can got. und<. r the belief that it
he does not take what is ofTured, he will ob-
tain nothing."

BCD KIVER NEWS.

awkward predicament of lying on its side.
How this came about is as lollows : She
was put up in winter quarters in Cook's
Creek at the Indian Settlement. This
streamlet is subject to very sudden rises
and fa'iS, on account of its proximity to
Lake Winnepeg, from which a strong north
wind will drive in quite a flood of waters.
One night, the watchman had to fasten her
very high on the side of the bank, on ac-
count of tlie high water. As usual, he tied
up both ends to good posts. When, to-
w;irds morning, the water had fallen so low
a? to afford no support whatevi.r to the
boat, f>be ve y naturally rolled over in search
of «aid support, and her violation not b';ing
•rlf directing or ratioral, there was a nice
linle crash and smash. Crockery and all
other breakables sounded the alarm, and
Mr. Watchman woke up to find his monster
ward in a novel, though not very agreeable,
position Her us inertia was something to
contemplate ; and tor a few hour--, the es-
«fntiai properties of matter, and the wood
ers of mecbannical power, seemed for once
practkalt and qA merely theoretical, sub-
jects of study. What is to be done, and
bow, are questions yet to be determined.

HV ONK OF T.HK li'W.v 1st.

A lew days before out regiment received
ordtrs to join Oen. Lyon, on his lourch to
Wil-^on's Creek, the drunmur of our com-
pany w «s taken sick and conveyed to the
lio-pitiil, and on the evening preceding the
daj' that we were to march, a negro wii."
arr.'sted within th^ lin-s ^f iLe camp
and brought betoie our Captain, who asked
him "what business he had within the lines? '
lie replied. "1 know a diummer that would
i kv to enlist in your company, "»d I have
como to tell you 'of it," He wai< immedi -
atily requestt-tl to inform the drummer that
if be wi uld enlist for our short term of ser-
vice, he would be alloweil e.Ttru j)ay. and
to do thi-s lie must be upon the ground
»arly in the morning. Tht- negro wa* then
passed beyond the guard.

On the loUowiog morning there upptared
b I lore tla Captain's quarters*, (luriiii; the
beating of the reveille, a good looking mid-
dle aged woman, dre.^-ed in deep mourninir,
leading by the hand a sharp, sprightly look-
inij boy, apparently about tv^elve or thirteen
years old. Her story was soon told. She
was from East Tennessee, where tier hus-
band had been killed by the rebels, and all
their property destroyed. She had come
to !-»t. Louis in search of her sister, but not
Qnding her, and being destitute of money,
she thought if she could procure a situation
tor her buy us a drummer tor the short
time that we had to remain in the service,
she could Gnd eaployment for herself and
perhaps find her sister by the time we were
discharged

During the rehearsal of her story the lit-
tle lellow kept his eye intently fixed upon the
countenance of the Captain, who was about
to express u determination not to take so
small a boy, when he spoke out, saying,
"Don't be afraid, Captain, I can drum.''
This was spoken with so much confidence
that the Captain immediately observed with
1 smile, "U'tll, well, Sergeant, bring the
drum, and order our fifer to come for-
ward." In a few minutes the drum was
produced, and our fifer made his appear-
ance, a tall, round shouldered, good natured
lellow Irom Dubuque mines, who stoo*!.
when erect, something over six feet in height.

Upon being introduced to his new com
rade, he stooped downward, with his hands
resting upon his knees that were thrown
forward into an acute ang'e, and after peer-
ing into the little fellow's face a moment,
he observed, "My little man, can you drum? "
"Yes, sir," he replied, "I drummed for Capt.
liiil in Tennessee.' Our filer immediately
commenced straightening himself upward,
until all the angles in his person had di.sap
pearod, when he placed his fife to his mouth
and played the '-Flower of Edenborough, "
one of the raost difficult tunes to follow
with the drum that could have been select
ed, but nobly did the liit'e lellow follow
him, .showing him to be a master of the
drum. When the music ceased, our Cap-
tain turned to the mother and observed,
•'Madam. I will take your boy. What is
his name?" "Edward Lee,' she replied;
then placing her hand upon the Captain's
arm. she continued, 'Captain, if he is not
killed — " here her maternal feelings over-
came her utterance, and she bent down ovi;r
her b'ly and kissed him upon the forehead
A? .-he arose, she observed, "Captain, you
will bring him back with you, won't you?"
"Yes, yea," he replied, ''we will be certain
to bring him back with us. We shall be
discharged in six weeks."

In an hour after, our company led the
Iowa First out of camp, our drum and fife
playing ''The girl 1 left behind me.' Ed-
die, as we called him. soon became a great
favorite with all the men in the c.jmpany.
When any of the boys had returned Irom a
horticultural excursion. Eddie's share of
the peaches and melons was the first appor-
tioned out. During our heavy and fatigu-
ing march from Rolla to Springfield, it was
olten amusing to see our long legged fifer
wading through the mud with our little
drummer mounted on his back — and always
in that position when fording streams.

During the fight at Wilson's Creek, I was
stationed with a part of our company on
the right of Totten's battery, while the bal-
ance of our company with 'a part of the
Illinois regiment wa:< ordered down into a
deep timbered ravine upon our left, in which
it was known a portion of the enemy was
concealed, with whom they were soon en-
gaged. The contest in the ravine continu-
ing sou.e time, Totten s-uddenly wheeled his
battery upon the enemy in that quarter,
when they soon retreated to the high ground
behind their lines. In less than twenty
minutes after Totten had driven the enemy
Irom the ravine, the word passed from man
to man throughout the army, ■' Lyon is
kiiied I" and soon alter, ho.stilities having
ceased on both sides, the order came for our
main forces to fall back upon Springfield,
while a part of the Iowa First, ami two
C'lmpanies of the Missouri regiment were to
camp upon the ground and cover the re-
treat next morning. That night I was de-
tailt-d for guard duty, my turn of guard
closing with the morning call. When 1
went out with the ofiBcer as a relief, I found
that my posi w.as upon a high eminence
that overlooked the deep ravine in which
our men had engaged the enemy^ until
Totten's battery come to their assistance.
It was a dreary, lonesome beat. The moon
had gone down in the early part of the
nii^ht, while the stars twinkkd diml^
through a hazy atmosphere, lighting up im-
perfectly the surrounding objects. Occa-
sionally I would place my ear near the
ground and listen for the sound of footsteps,
but all was silent except, the far off' howling
of the wolf, that seemed to scent upon the
evening air the banquet that we hid been
preparing for him. The hours passel slow-
ly away, when at length the morning light
began to streak along the eastern sky,
making surrounding objicts more plainly
visible. Presently I heard a drum beat up
the morning call. At first I thought it
came from the camp of the enemy across
the creek ; but as I listened I found that it
came up from the deep ravine ; for a few
mioutee it was silent, and then as it became
more light I heard it again. I listened —
the sound of the drnm was familiar to me
— and I knew that it was

Our drummer boy from Tenneasee,
Beating for help the reveille.

I was about to desert my post to go to
bis a-ssistance, when I discovered the officer
of the guard approaching with two men.
We all listened to the sound, and were sat-
isfied that it was Eddy's drum. I asked
permission to go to his assistance. The
officer hesitated, saying the orders were to
march in twenty minutes. I promiaed to
be back in that time, waeo he consented. I
immediately started down the hill through
the thick undergrowth, and upoa reaching
the valley I followed the sound of the drum,
and soon found him seated upon the ground,
his back leaning against the trunk of a fuU
len tree, while his drum hung upou a bush
in front ot him reaching nearly to the
ground. As soon as be discovered me, he
dropped his dramsticks and exclaimed, "O,
corporal, I am so glad to see you ! Give me
a drink," reaching out his hand for my can
teen, which was empty. I immediately
turned to bring him some water firora the

J u V^*^ ^ ^°"*''^ '»«»'" rippling through
the bushes near by, when thinking that I
was about to leave him, he commenced cry.

mg, 'non'i leave u>e. ei>r|)(<ial — I cunt
walk." i was soon back with the wati-r,
when 1 discvt-red that both of his teat had
bit'n shot away by a cannun ball. AII'T
satisfying his thirst, ho looked up into my
lace and suid, "Yku dou't think I will die,
corporal, do ytiu'? This man said I would
not — he saw the surgeon could cure my
feet " 1 now discovHicI u man lying in the
grafB near him. dead By hi< drt>* I rec
ogiiized him a» bt-I'^ngiii'/ lu the enemy It
ippt ar'^d that he ha.i b. en A\ot through the
l^oweis, uiid hud fallen iit-ar where Eddy
lay. Knowing that he cmuM not live, and
seving the condition of the boy, he bad
erawie ' to him, took otl' his buckskin sus
peoders, and corded the little fellow's legs
below the knee, and then luy down and diet!.
While he was telling me these particulars, I
heard the tramp ot eavalry coming down
the ravine, and in a moment a scout of the
enemy was upon u*, and I was taken a pris-
oner. I requested the officer to take Eddy
up in front of him, and he did so, carrying
hiui with great tenderness and care. When
we reached the camp of the enemy, the
little fellow was dead.

BAYARD TAYLOR'S LECTURE AT
WASUINUTON.

Bayard Tavlor delivered recently one of
the course of lectures at the Smithsonian
Institute Wa.shington. We give a brief
abstract of the lecture. It will be seen that
he complimented the " live city of St. Paul."

Mr. Taylor apologized for delay, attended
by loss of his manuscript and lecturing ves
turc, by a mishap, in a simple, uoaftected
way, and proceeded to premise that he
might, in what he should say give offence —
Amtricans being proverbially a thin-skii nt'd
[leople. The composition and character ol
our people were peculiar ; we are a new
people, not grafted on an anterior race.
Toe root being English, the b-anches have
a predominantly English growth, yet so
modified as to appear more French than
English. The influx of foreigners seems to
work no change of national character, such
is our assimilating power as a people.

In England, there is a social system inde-
pendent of rank or wealth, and a larger
social freedom than is found in this country :
here, social position depends much upon
political or religious opinion, as well as
wealth. He was almost inclined to lay
down the postulate ; there is found political
despotism and social freedom ; here there is
political freedom and social despotism.

There seems to be a social demoraliza-
tion in progress, caused in part, by over-
weening anxiety for wealth and a blunting
of conscience in means of acquiring it, and
a habit of dishonesty mildly designated as
sharp practice. There is a sensitiveness,
too. about acknowledgment of poverty,
sometimes ridiculous, as in case of the trav-
eler in London, who, instead of flinching at
the unexpected charge of a guinea for a
dish of strawberries, ordered another at the
CJSt of his only remaining guinea A Ger-
man, low io funds, will not hesitate to take
a third class car ; a Frenchman will dine
on a biscuit ; but an American will go with-
out, and say he has had hU dinner. But the
Amerioaa is not penurious; if a money
making people, we are a money spending
people, imitating the bounty of nature to us.
our lavishness is attested by religion, charity,
and science.

We are a half educated people socially,
wanting in courtesy and cordiality, olten
blunt and ofiensive in manners. It must be
remembered that we are a nation without a
peasantry. In Europe is found servile
submission in the lower strata ot society ;
here, instead, is insolent opposition to what
is above. Our only re?,l aristocracy was
lormerly represented by teamsters on our
heavy roads, now by servant girls of foreign
birth. The servile submission in Europe
was preferable to the brutal barbarians
known as " white tra.sh '' in the Soutliern
States.

Like the French, we are an excitable
people, moved by the passions of the hour,
and in the great uprising o( our people now,
he had feared a natural rebound, but the
loud peal of the trumpet, calling the dur-
ing Union to indignant life, has not yet
died away.

In referring to the English question, he
said that England never expressed sympa
thy for any nation, because she felt any.
We should keep cool, do right, and make
no cowardly concessions, even before a
world in arms.

Our nation had a large share of vanity.
Like a maiden who loved to look in the
looking-glass, she should thank God and
be satisfied. We have also an intense local
pride. He could tolerate it in a lively city
like St. Paul, but was disgusted abroad
when a traveller remarked: "This is a
miserably disgusting place ; it has no re-
semblance to Charle-too."

He next proceeded to note our politcal
characteristics, exposed the fallacy of State
Rights, revered the Constitution as eternal
truth, but thought the machmery (tf Gov-
ernment worked lumberingly ; 'said that
c>irrup«;ion had become an acknowledged
power ; thought that the workers of the
civil service should bold office by a tenior
of good behaviur ; that God had now cast
his alloyed metal into his hottest crucible,
from which he behaved we should come
forth purified for a subliraer destiny.

SECRETARY CHASE.

There is a vast deal of anxiety in Gov-
ernment circles fur the future, and Mr.
Chase is very naturally depressed in spirits.
Ifanymaniu the country can take the
Government ship through the breakers, he
will do it. There is a disposition in some
quarters to find fault with Mr. Chase. There
are men who have a grudge against hira
because he has not given them all the offi-
ces they want, who endeavor to obtain their
revenge by attacking his financial policy
through the newspapers. This is base. We
are ail in the same boat, and must do our
best to give it a safe passage over the river.
Certain members of Congress, who have all
along objected to heavy taxation, will now
have an opportunity to exhibit their patri-
otism. Our best financiers say nothing is
before us but heavy taxation. The people
mu^t endure it for a season, or the war must
be given up. The patriotism of the people
at all times is superior to that of their rep-
resentatives in Congress. It is understood
that Mr. Chase, Mr. Fessenden of the Sen-
ate Finance Committee, and Mr. Stevens
of the House Ways and Means, are agreed
on one point, namely, that there must be an
imposition of direct taxes and excise duties
such as the country never saw before. Mr.
Stevens is more discouraged than any-
body else connec'ed with the committee
above named. Mr. Chaac, though evident
ly a little dispirited, is not in the least dis-
couraged. He will take the government
along handsomely yet, unless be is p6u*alyzed
by the President or Gen. McClellan's non-
action

AL PRINTING.

That a Republican Administration should
pass by all the Republican papers in the
State to bestow important patronage, on
an old, implacable, bitterand unscrupulous
foe — on the organ cf the Moccasin Democ
racy. State Corruption, Secession, South-

can, is certainly a new chapter in politics.

ARiYlY OFFICERS.

The following from the Washington cor-
respondent of the Chicago Inbune of late
date, we would hope was not true, or gros,s-
ly exaggerated ;

The joint committee of the two houses,
appointed to investigate the conduct of the
war, are reaching some faeta which are
alarming, if not unexpected. A surgeon
testified to-day, in answer to the proper
interrogatories, that a regular army officer
— that 16, a West Pointer now in command
of volunteers— had remarked to him, with
coL'siderable emphasis, that he would 'like to
turn his artiUerq on Congress l^efore inflict-
ing any harm on Jeff. Davis. When asked
what was the name of the officer, the sur-
geon refused to answer, remarking that he
had been the guest ot .said officer, and it
would !)e unfair to make that particular one
the scape-^goat for his class— //ie same feel-
ing, and the same expiessiou of feeling, be
ing common among the IVesl Point officers
throughout (he divtsion ■'

In answer to direct inquiries, he testified
further that these officers divided their leis-
ure between cursing the volunteer soldieis
and execrating all acts, resolutions, or votes
in Congress adverse to slavery. There has
been so much testimony of This kind that
Ben. Wade, the Chairman of the committee,
believes that there are lodges of the K. G.
C. in all our camps on the Potomac, insti-
tuted and patronized by the West Point offi-
cers, most of whom were Breckinridge Dem
ocrats last year, and are as bitterly pro-slave-
ry now as either Breckinridge or Jeff Davis.
Have such Generals any heart io this war ?
Look at Gen. T. W. Sherman ; he is one
of them. He has written a letter recently,
in which he says that if he were to offer an
asylum to the negroes at Port Royal he
could get them at the rate of 5 000 per day.
Yet, knowing that the negroes are supporting
the rebel. ion— carrying it on their shoulders,
as it were— and more especially so in South
Carolina than any where else, he will not
employ the eSective agency at his disposal,
hut must needs use violent means to drive
them back to the eervice of their rebel mas-
ters. Of course none but disgraceful re-
sults are to be expected from an army
commanded by such a geniral — results
whose misery is only rivaled by their expense.

JOHN BULL GORED,

Mr. Thornton Hunt (says the "Lounger,*
in Harper,) an Englishman, son of Leigh
Hunt, came to see as last spring. Ho was
unknown, but his father was famous and
beloved among us, and for his sake the son
was kindly received. One day he was
dining at a table with a well known Amer-
ican author, and Mi. Hunt indulged in the
customary flippant platitudes of John Cull
when he discourses of a foreign country to
its natives. After a series of remarks which
showed that u man so ill informed was
totally unjustified in holding any opinion
upon|tbe subject discussed, he remarked :

'' And can you tell me why it is that all
the gentlemen in this country are at the
South '? Really it is extraordinary ; and
I wish you had not kicked up all this
row, so that I can not get down among
them."

" Well," slowly replied the American,
'' I suppose the reason must be akin to
that which makes all the English gentle-
men stay at home in Enf]land. \Ve hear
that there are gentlemen in Engl ind, but
they never cone to this country.''

John Bull is a pachydermatous animal,
and it is still a question whether be felt
the arrow.

on. BAILEY^S FAMILY.

A young son of Mrs. Bailey, widow of
the late Dr. Bailey ot the National Era,
was buried yesterday from C. street, where
the family has resided for many years.
There is a deep feeling of sympathy lor
Mrs. Bailey for ahe has within the last few
years drank the cup of sorrow to its dregs.
Dr. Baily was the idol as well as dependence
of his family and bis sadden death at sea
while voyaging to foreign lands for renewed
health was a terrible shock to that family.
Three fine sons were left, but the yoangest,
about sixteen, has iust been taken away,
and the family is again plunged io moaroiog.
The oldest occupies a confidential position
under Mr. Chase and is the main support of
the family. The second son is at West
Point. As the affairs of Dr. Bailey were
not left in a prosperous condition, a heavy
responsibility was left upon his widow and
aba has borne it very bravely and nobly.
This freeh trial is very hard for her to bear,
bat 80 many important duties remain to the
living that she will bear up under them for
the sake of the living. Secretary Chase is
a very warm friend of the family and bag
baen a coansallor and friend throagb all
their troablea.

Rivers — How tokv Flow.— All rivere,
small or large, agree in one character — they
like to lean a little on one side— they can-
not bear to have their channels deepest in
the middle ; they will always, if they can,
have one bank to sun themsJvea upon and
another to get cool under ; one shingly
shore to play over, where they may be shal-
low. and foolish, and childlike ; and anoth-
er steep shore, under which they can pause
' and purify themselves, and get their strengfh
of waves fully together for due occasion.
Rivers in this way are just like wise men,
who keep one side of their life for play and
another f r work ; and can be brilliant,
and chattering, and transparent, when they
are at ease, and yet take deep counsel on
the other side w ,en they set themselves to
their main purpose. Atd rivers are just io
this divided also, like wicked and good men ;
the good rivers have servicable deep places
all along their banks that ships can sail in ;
but the wicked rivers go scooping irregu-
larly under their banks until they get full of
etraggliog eddies which no boat can row
over without being twisted against the rocks,
and pools like wells which no one can get
out of but the water kelpie that lives at the
bottom ; but wicked or good, the rivers all
agree in having two kinds ot sides.— iJtwAm.

received some credence at Washington
yesterday that Secretary Cameron was
kbout to exchange his position an head
of the War Department for the mis-
sion to Russia, and that lion. Edwin M.
SuiDton, for a time Attorney General un
der Buchanan, wati to be his 8ucee«sor.
We have no doubt, however, that this re -
port will prove to be one of those canards
which Washington newspaper correspond-

RESIGNATION OF GCN. 8IGEL.

Tiie ?peciai dispatches of the Chicago

liibuneof the lltb, contain the following

iu regard to the resignation of this distin-

juiihed oflBcer. We sincerely hope that his

tale will not be that of Fremont;

A well iDtormed gentleman who It'it
Ro'.la, this morning, had an interview re-
cently with GfU. Sigol, who complained that
he had been hurried by Gen. Slalleck from
a sick bed to lake command at Holla, and
that only three days alter his nrrival Gen.
Curtis arrived, and without exhibiting any
orders from General Halleck, or giving him
(Sigfi) notice, assumed command. General

-Brig. Gen. Edward Otho Cresap Ord,
who fought the rebels wiib such skill and
success at Drainsvilie, is a native of Mary-
land, and a graduate of Wet^t Point. He
jr.ined the artillery arm of the servfor', and
in 1854 received a commission a.- captain
in the Third Rej^iment United States Ar
liilery. He subsequently distinguished him-
sell iu a number of severe conflicts with the
Indians of Oregon anJ Washington Terri-
tory, and on his recent return from Cali-
foiiiia wa« made a Brigadier General of vol-
uiiteers.

— D. U. Martin, the wherry and berry
man, U now raining in Calitornia, and sub-
sists almost entirely on grapes and apples.
The name fruits farmed his diet on his sea*
voya?<^ from here to the Isthmus, and
b.inanus and oranges on the Pacific side.
lie had a rough passage oat, but was not
st-a sick. Mr. Martin is of opinion that it is
not thH eating of tropical fruits that produces
ftital effects in warm climates but the
drinking of poisonous liquors.

— When the Giant Woman, now at
Barnum's Mu.eeum, came here she was
obliged to have a place prepared for her in
the baggage car: as she was so large that
she was unable to get through the door of
the regular passenger cars. She is said to
be a female Lambert, and beyond all doubt
the heaviest woman ever known.

— The servant girls of the free States
consume more silks and French goods than
the whole Southern aristocracy— a well es-
tabliihed commercial fact. And they have
a ripht to if thej choose, lor in most cases
they are honestly earned.

{

higel says that he has nsigntd out of a

eeDS€ of justice to himself, but \s anxious to

serve bis adopted country, and if the troops

were to march to day, he would march with

them.

He further says that out of six regiments
raised in bis naiiie, by his friends, only lour
hundred men are left to bis command.' lie
hopes an arrangement will be made by
which he may honorably return to service.

SKATING.

•• Biler,'" tbe St. Paul correspondent of
ta« Hudson City Times, evidently isn't fond
of skating. He writes:

The Skating Club is in fuii blast, and
ikating seems to be the order of the d;iy.
Ladies skate, boys sk^te, gents skate, girls
akatP, in fact every body skates except Biler,
He has no desire to make astronomical ob»
•ervations, as astronomy is at present out of
hie line. It is well enough for those who
have been through the mill and understand
the various kinks and twists and turn«, «fee..
to talk about its being an easy ami graceful
performance, productive of health and hap
pice?8 ; bat when one presents a/ic simile
of a hen roosting on a clothes line, I can't
see the gracefullness boasted of ; when thp
Ice flops up and gives you a whack in the
cranium, that ends in the headache for two
weeks after, if nothing worse, I fail to see
how one's health is to be materially ad-
Tinced."

the Committee on Military Affairs provid-

tnrn any person of African descent to any
one who shall claim them for service or
labor, such of^cer shall be discharged from,
and shall thereafter be ineligible to the mil-
itary or naval .service of the country. This
bill is a substitute for the one originally re-
ferred to the committee, and more briefly
covers the ground of preventing the return
of fugitive slaves than any other bill.

— The general verdict is, that Lovejoy
had the better of ail his antagonists in thtf
debate of the .5th. The remarks of the
Kentuckiana show a divided opinion among
them, a part preferring the Union destroyed
ratht r slavery, and part holding to the op-
posite grouniJ. Wicklifis is of the former
cutegory, and Mallory of the latter.

The overpowering political and interna-
nationa! reasons Tor some effective movement
agiinst the rebels have, it is said, made the
Cabinet unanimous as to the propriety of
.something being done by onr army. It is
rumored that the extraordinary Cabinet
councils that have been recently held have
been in reference to this matter. It is felt
by none more thun those hisjh in authority
that compiioations with other nations are
probably so long as our enemies remain in

THE governor's MESSAGE.

Mr. KENNEDY, of Meeker, from the
cotnmittee appointed on Printing the Gov-
ernor's Message in the several Languages,

committee,

Mr. ROHR, of Ramsey, presented a mi-
nority report, in favor of printing 1500
copies of the .Message in German. "00 in
Norwegian, 500 iu the Swedish and 200
in the Welj^h language.

Mr. CORNELL, of Hennepin, opposed
the printing on the ground that the pre&-
throughout the State would give sufBcient
circulation to the document, and the propos
ed number in foreign tongues would be an
upiustifiable extravagance, contrary to the
recommendation of the Governor, and
wholly uncalled for at the present time. If
the expense of printing should exceed the
expectation of the House, the members
must recollect they are responsible and not
the public printer.

The Commanding General asked for 27 reg-

authorized to be raised is 73. This is 46
more than General McClellao wants. Thi«
excess will cost the Government about ^46.-

table oi the Evening Journal A.\raa'^»c. The
Senattt is largely Republican. Of the mem-
bers of the House 70 (3S Republicans and
32 Democrats) were elfccted ou "Union"
ticktu. Il was a long time doubtful on
what basis a cancos ghould be held, »ud
nominations made. After three or four
• calls" bad been made, it was finally agreed
ibat the call shoad Ix; upon the issue of "a
vigorous prosecution of the war." This cau-
,nj? was attended by all the Republicaiifj.
aud nearly all the "Union" Democrats, and

Mr. Ravraond was Speaker of the Assem-
blv soint- t'O yrars since, aud afterward.^,

hoilt ill Washiiigtou city, two or three years
agu. what was called '• Minne.sota Row,"
three magnificent residences under one roof.
Tae furniture of Breckinridge was sold to
pay his debts: that of Mr. Douglas was
put np at auction since his decease ; Senator
Rice haa vacated the third, aud the entire
block has been rented to the government
for a hospital. When thoM' palatial man-
sions were gay with music and festivity, or
when iLcy were council chambers for busy,
ambilious politicians, planning schemes oj

could it have bteu imagined that, in a few
xnonths those halls were to be filled with
KOt* for sick and wounded soldiery.

TSE RIGHT TE.TIPERATrRE OF
ROO.VS.

If.e Pari-* Side says that generally speak-
ing, during winter, opartuunts are too much
Ltated. The temperature lu them ought
jiot 10 excee<l L'> deg. centigrade (59 deg,
F'lh.) and even in periods of great cold,
Bcientific men declare that 12 or 14 deg.
had better net be exceeded. In the wards
of hospitals and in th-? chambers of the i
tick, care is taken not to have greater heat
than 15 ^eg. Clerks in offices, and other
p*.'r3ons of sedentary habits, when tlie rooms
in which they sit are too much heated, are
liable to cerebral congestion, pulmonary
congestion and pulmonary complaints. In
bed rooms, and particularly those of chil-
dren, the temperature ought to be maintain-
ed rather lew; it is even prudent only rarely
to make fires in them, especially during the
night. Id addition to kcepiug up only a
moderate temperature, the wine ows of all
rooms, whatever the weather, ought to be
opened lor a time every day, ?o as to renew
the air.

Many pers ns seem to think it would
have been much better polity for our (iov-
eroment 'o have sent Mason and Slidell
back to the protection of the British flag
immediately on the arrival of the San Ja-

Great Britain, and thus, at least in the eyes
of our enemies, subjecting ourselves to the
tumiliation of submitting to her dictation.

I am happy to be able to put my experi-
ence— an extensive one with Lane's brigade
— in opposition to this popular idea of a
" contraband," and I propose to state the
condition of the two thousand liberated by
the inarch of the Kansas army. These
negroes were owned principally by seces-
sionists, but when the question was free-
dom or slavery for themselves the negroes
failed to make any such distinction ; and
wiien they sought our camp they were pro-
tected, and no questions were asked as to
the political status of their former masters.
Families came in— sometimes three gener-
ations in a single wagon ; sometimes a
man or woman tied away, leaving all fam-
ily lies to .secure personal liberty, daring
untold dangers, enduring fatigue, starva-
. tion. perils by night aud greater dreao by
d;iy, never feeling safe till they knew they
were in the Kansas camp. One day, as we
marched from Osceola, we saw three men
riding at full speed across the prairie. As
they approached we saw that one was a
negro and the others white men in pursuit.
B^ast came the slave, but the whites steadily
gained, and one was in the act of catching
the bridle of the lugitve when a borderer
dashed out from the column and raised his
Sharp's rifle. " About face " went the
slave catchers, and a rifle ball sung an
ominous warning in their ears as they made

But night is their great time. Sixty
came to camp in one evening, and, as
General Lane observed, "'It wasn't much
of a night for niggers either." We put
the able men to work immediately driving
teams, cooking, grooming the horses, and
doing all the extra duties of the brigade.
Each officer engaged one as a body servant,
instead of taking a soldier from his duty.
In this manner they earned from eight to
ten dollars a month.

Parsons, Moore, Fisher and Fish, chap-
lains of the brigade, started last month
with a train of negroes to establish them
on Kansas farms. After three weeks these
gentlemen returned to headquarters, hav-
ing found comfortable situations for every
roan, woman and child under their charge.
Many were hired as farm hands, house
servants, etc, at wages from eight to twelve
dollars per month, and the least effective
secured places for the winter where they
will be sure of food and clothing, with
good chances for lucrative employment
when spiing opens. The fugitives are
generally shrewd and industrious, and the
farmers of Ivansas gladly avail themselves
of this supply of laborers. This is an as-
serton utterly at variance with the general
impression It is nevertheless literally
true. In slavery one can hardly imagine a
more shiftless, indolent being than a Mis-
souri negro. But the change from slavery
to freedom efi'ecLs an instantaneous and
complete revolution la its character. With
the consciousness of liberty comes the
necessity for exertion, and effort is born
o! necessity. The slave who worked
carlessly felt that he had no interest in the
result of his labor ; no amount of industry
would benefit him, and he naturally did »s
little as he could consistent with safety.
But when he is a free man he is equal to
the emergency. This has been the case
wherever my experience has extended.
There is not a man who has been liberated
by this brigade but is abundantly able
and willing to take care of himself. In
every case we have found the slave fit for
freedom. This history of the contrabands
of Kansas army proves them to be pos-
ses.^ed of attributes that would do honor
to the roost favored race. That theestab
lishment of these liberated men as a free
working population in Kansas will be a
blessing to the young State is not doubted
even by the aiost prejudiced who have
had an oppurtunity to observe them during
this campaign.

SERIOUS RAILROAD COLLISION.

A serious railroad accident occurred yes-
terday morning upon the Illinois Central Rail-
road, a short distance from Hyde Park sta-
tion, aud between that place aud the Reform
School. The Cincinnati express train, due
here at 7:20 a. m , ran into ihe rear end of
the Hyde Park train of the Illinois Central
Railroad, about ten minutes before 8 o'clock,
as the latter was just getting under headway
from Kenwood station, nearly six miles
from the city. Both trains were bound for
the city, and the CinciDnati Express was
somewhat out of time.

The Hyde Park train consisted of one
pas.senger coach and one bagsiage car, drawn
tiy one ot the Illinois Central locomotives.
Ttio passenger coach was lorn into frag-
ments by the locomotive of the other train,
resulting in the instant death of one of the
passengers, Judge William T. Barren, of
ihis city, and severe injuries to several
others. It seems, from all that can be
learned, that the Cincinnati Fxpress was
runniig at a high rate of speed, and in
passing aruumi a curve, came suddenly upon
the Hyde Park train. The engineer upon
setting the unexpected dangrr, |reversed his
engine, and blew Ihe alarm. Judge Barron,
who was upon the Hyde Park train, and
who was talking with another gjotieman,
lieard the whistle of the oihi r locomotive,
and rushed to the rear door in hopes to
spring from the p'atform before the trains
met. His attempt was in vain. The mo-
ment he opened the door of the car, the
engine struck tiie platform, and his dead
body was mingled with the crushing wood-
work. Several others were considerably
wounded or ..bruised, while .some escaped
without a single scratch by jumping from
the train at the moment of the first alarm .
Among those who were most soriously
woundefi were S. ('. P. Bo<rne, James P.
Root, John Kemmer. and H. A. Hopkins,
all ol this city. The passenger coach was
torn into splintcs bj the force cf the colli-
sion, and the front part penetrated half-way
through the baggage car. Although the
cars were thus damaged, there was but one
pcr.-on killed, and very few were injured.
No passenger upon the Cincinnati train was
hurt, although the collision proved a narrow
e-scape for many. — Chicago Iribune. 9lh.

VINOISCATMftN- <»F 0»t/. OORMAIV.

I'rom i/u ^nv York IriljuM, 7th.

We published a week or two ago, u par-
agraph, based upon direct informafTdn from
a tru.Hiwprtly pe-rsou, to the effect that Ool
GorniwB nad ei»aelly punishetl ;> iugitive
KJHve, lor .si'iliiig liquor to some of hii mt^n.
The diarge, with th»^«rcompanying vircum-
stauces, was such tiiat we did not teel at
lil)erly to withhold il Irou. the public There i
are acts aud particularly acts of some «»£ [
the officers of the army in relation to slaves,
that caL only be reached l>y public opinioti,
and con-ected by public indigoatiou. and
this al!e?e<l cruelty of Col. (Jorman was pre-
cisely otie of those for which iu a^> other way
would he ever be brought to feel a just ret-
Tibutioit.

The I'eal fairis of the case, bowevHr, we
learn now Irom the best possible authority.
They ai-e us follows : Nearly four months
ago, two negroes living about "200 yards
from C^l. Geir man's camp, near Poolesville,
Maryland, were caught selling whiskey to
some of his men. The men wer*- violently
drunk ; one of them had shot at and killed
a negre< eook ; another shot at an officer,
and a third attempted to commit some oth-
er violence upon his Lieutenant. The two
negroej, on being accu.'ied of selling whiskey
to ihc men, confessed it. The general or-
ders of thejdivision were, that any man,
white or black, guilty of such a violatioi: of
discipline, should be whipped by the men
to whom they had sold the liquor. This
order was carried out in this case, the ne-
groes i»hipped by the men whom they had
made drunken, and then turned out of the
camp. Such is the statement as now made
on authority which has a tight to demand
a hearag. The difl'erence between this and
the former narration is this : that the slaves
were not fngilivee, but living with their mas
ters jmt outside the camp, and that the
punishment awarded them was not unusual,
and not an invention of Col Gorman's, but
was, in accordance with the orders of Gen.
Stone, the commander of the division, in*
flicted on all, without regard to color, guilty
ot the crime in qnestion It was also al-
leged that Co!> Gorman's sutler was at this
very time selling liquor to the men with
impar.ity. Buf to this part of the charge
we have no reply.

We are also assured that Col. Gorman's
opinicns on the subject of Slavery — which
were tiupposed to supply the motives in his
conduct in this matter — are entirely misun-
derstood. He has openly and constantly,
we are assured, proposed to leave Slavery
to tail e care of itself, refusing to hunt or
return fugitive slaves, and giving to the ays*.
tern no tender consiiieration whatever. The
rebellion, he thinks, should be pat down
at any cost, and he has no dispo-
sitiOD to save thesystem of Slavery from that
destruction which must follow the proseco
tion ef the war. As this statement is much
more honorable to him, and more agreeable
to beiieve, than that which first reached us,
we trust it is true.

DEATH OF PRINCE ALBERT.

From the London papers received by the
Asia, we glean further particulars in refer-
(nce to the death of Prince Albert. His
illness aro.se from his sleeping in a damp
room on his recent visit to the Priuce of
Wales at Cambridge, which was afterwards
increased by attending a review of the Eton
Volunteer.*, when he said he felt as if cold
water had been poured down his back. The
Record, in alluding to the last houis of the
Prince, sa}s:

•' Unhappily bis Royal llighnes-s was
averse to medicine, and even alter the char
acter of the lever had declared itself, he
objected to all active remedies, and especial-
ly to his being confined to a recumbent
posture. lie was each day pccasionally
wheeled about the apartments which he oc
cupied, until Friday, when his state, which
even on Monday and Tuesday was criucal,
bad become nearly hopeless. His Royal
Highness him?ell had a presentiment that
his il ness would be fatal from the time that
he heard of the nature of the fever, which
waa the same as that which carried ofl the
King of Portugal ; but it was not until af-
ter her Majesty's return from her drive on
Friday that she realized the danger, and for
twelve successive hours she watched over
the Prince with afifectionate solicitude, and
without intermission.

Last year an incipient attack of the same
ed, was a wise proceeding. For, if not j kind had been warded c5 by the prompt
demanded, they could well remain under | measures resorted to by the lamented Dr.

our guardianship— a thing generally consid-
ered more than desirable. If demanded, the
demand could only be made by yielding us
a diplomatic victory, and fully and entirely
placing herself where we have been trying
to place her. in regard to this point, ever
nince we were a nation, at the cost of one
war and much diplomatic discussion, with-
out success.

Baly, who was able to overcome the Prince's
repugnance to active medicine. On the
prtfsent occasion wc hear that this repug-
nance was not to be overcome, and there-
fore that the ('ourt Physicians cannot, at
all events, be blamed for active treatment.
Uis Royal Highness was conscious to the
last, but occasionally wandered, and in his
delirium his thoughts seemed to be occupied

The correppoudcnt of the New York

Times fays:

There are now in Beaufort District, alone,
I am informed by ofifieial personages, nearly
10,000 slaves, whose masters have fled, and
Beaufort District is but a small portion of
the county at present in our hands. I have
accompanied a number of the reconnois-
sances made in all directions from this post,
both by sea and land; have witnessed the
exploration of the country from 'f'ybee Is-
land on the South, to North Edis'to on the
North, an extent of at least si.xty miles,
and have penetrated as far into the interior,
on some of these excuraions, as our troops
have yei gone. Everywhere, 1 find the same
state of things existing; everywhere the
black,=< hurry in droves to our lines; they
crowd in small boats around our ships; they
swarm upon our decks; they hurry lo our
oflRcera, from the cotton-houses of their mas-
ters, in an hour or two after our guns are
fired. I am writing now, not what I have
heard, but what I have seen. 1 am not
sending your opinions, nr conclusions at
which I have arrived, but facts that I have
observed. I mean eac i statement I make
to be taken literally; it is not garnished for
rhetorical effect, but put into such a form as
will most exactly convey to the mind of a
reader the impression made on me. I have
seen negroes who reported themselves as
just escaped fr'ra their jnasters, who came
breathless to our forces, and said they dared
not go back, for their masters would kill
them; who told that their masters were at
that moment armed and threatening to
shoot any slave that did not fly with them;
who declared they had tricked their owners
and came away in boats that they were bid
den to take back to the whites. I have
talked with drivers and field hands, with
house-maids and coachmen and body-ser-
vants, who were apparently as eager to es-
cape as any, 1 have heard the black point
out bow their masters might be caught,
where they were bidden, what were their
forces. I have seen them used as guides
and pilots. I have been along while they
pointed oat in what houses stores of arms
and ammunition were kept, and where bod-
ies of troops were stationed. In a few
bonrs I have known this information veri-
fied. I have asked them about the senti-
ment of the slave population, and been in-
variably answered that everywhere it is the
same.

Camp Wood, Mu.m'ORdsville, Jan. 7.

I telegraphed on .Saturday night that the
railroad bridge across Green river would be
finished by the Thursday next following, but
for once it seems that the army has exceed-
ed expectations, and 1 woke Monday morn-
ing to find the cars running across and pene-
trating Dixie land.

The completion of the bridge is by no
means indicative of a forward march. "Lay
not that flattering unction to your poul," or
to the souls of your readers. Not that
there is no < ncrgv on the part of those in
command. It is a grand mistake to think
we have been idle here, but a forward move-
ment at this time is not probable.

Bui you may rest assured, and if il is any
consoiaiion — it is to me — console yourselves
with the fact that the next movement of
the division of Gen. McCook brings fighting
— but if a raovemeut in force is not made
for a fortnight, or even a month, be not
disappointed.

If we are idle here the divisions of Gens.
Nelson and Thomas are not. Gen. Nelson
has mov^d forward to Gret n river, and is
only ten miles ea-st of us. Commuuication
between the two divisions of the main or
central army i.^ daily, and a unity of move-
ment and purpose is apparent. General
Thoma.s's lelt wing has advanced, as 1 pre-
viously advised you, to Commbus, and the
right wing is not idle, though I am unable
to state definitely what particular move
menLs are being made.
