corxc,,,on BApcocx.--The Minnesoti,


Pat:-'.Stop Judge, and let me tell you the rae
circumstance Of il. warnt the digressor. lie
drawed upon me a stick fnll two feet over, aud
made circumIocuiory motions about my head,
and ist CONCEALED myself on to my dighify, ana
suspended myself on my rishis-thats all.
| REMOVAL OF ASSOCIATE jUDGEs.--from
the following paragraph. found in one OF our ex-
changes, we infer that the President is likely to
make clean sweep of our Judiciary, since he has
''got his hand n.'' They must be the ''other le-
gal ctions'' that are referred TO in the paragraph
which is as follows:
John Doe and Richard Roe are at last to be
reformed out of the English law, where they have
flourishcd for centuries. Other legal 6ctions are
to be turned out with Them, and direct practice
is to be introduced like that in the State Of New
York.
MII.IrARY.--We see it announced that cap
tain of a military company down east. has invented
machine for drilling his company. Fudge.
They, have always practised in the U. S. Army,
doing precisely the same thing with bores. We
have heard Of militia company, in which, 1t
being small, every member but one was elected
an officer. The officers all took turns in drilling
that one private. AS might be expected, they
drilled the poor fellow TO death.
BOAT RIvALRY.-The Jeffersonian says: In
our own vicinity, the spirit Of rivalry is getting
up; and with two new boats in the Upper river
trade, and two in the lower, owned by different
parties, the fun for the public will open early in
the season. From Minnesota, then. to New York,
the only link that remains 10 be ''rivIied," the
only hill of difficulty" TO be ''tunneled," is be-
tween Galena and Rockford-ninety miles, that
will consume more time than any other 300 in The
whole route. Hurry up the railroad.
ELECTION OF DELEGArE.-Our Legsla-
ture has passed law to defer the election Of del
esate until 1853 This is for the reasonable and
truly democratic purpose Of giving to the large
incoming population that will, in few months,
belong 10 our territory, voice in the important
election of delegate.
MEDIc1NE,-Ifth the Maine liquor law passes,
we may count upon large increase of the Drug
and medicine business il our Territory. We in
fer this from the experience of the law in Maine
= 1--WE have before us, says The Boston Trav-
eler, wrapper, which we are assured was taken
from square medicine shaped quart bottle of
found its way into Maine. The label reads thus ::
"Wolfe's Aromatic Shedam Schnapps, a super
lative tonic, diuretic, ant-dyspep,ic and iuvsor-
ating cordial" Then follows a list Of the medi-
cinal properties Of the beverage, with directions
for taking it. and the address ofthe proprietor in
fac simie, ''WaIdolpho Wolfe, % Beaver-sireet,
New York.
Two LEGIsLArUREs.-They are better OF
for Legislature in Oregon, than ire are. They
have tco Legislatures There is dispute about
where the seat Of government is. One member
ofths Council, and four members Of the House,
NEE, regularly and adjourn their respective Hous-
es, at Oregon CITY. Two of the Judges sustain
them. The rest Of the legislature, backed up by
Judge Pratt, formerly Of GaIena) meet at Salem.
This il worse than our Legislature did year ago,
when minority swarmed eff (the fishing party, }
and lii down al Rass Lake.
SO THINK wE-The Minnesota Pioneer saws:
1t is even questionable VIII Their the increase OF
the transient and transit business Of Gaena will
more Than compensate her for the secure, snug
monopoly of winter trade which she now enjoys
while cut off from the competition in trade which,
she will soon have 10 meet with from cities further
east, at all seasons Of the year, Dubuque Her.
True; but elf scarcely the righteous be saved,
where will the sinner and the ungody appcar:''
PEMBIHA RAILRoAp.--In the Senate, Feb
4h, Mr.. Jones presented the proceedings OF a
meeting Of The Citizens OF Dubuque, praying feI
grant of land for the construction of railroad
from Dubuque 10 the Red River Of the North
which was referred TO The Committee on Terrific
rles.
We glad TO see this great WORK thus refer
ed 10 this committee, not only from the known
opinions of its chairman, Judge Douglas, but from
its being indication that the Senate consider il
work for the benefit Of Minnesota lib
The railroad that will be chiefly wanted in Min
neso,a, will be iiom the Yves, to the ast to con-
meet our Territory with the Atlantic. Nature
has already connected it with the Gulf of Mex
leo, by the river.
A HOUSE IN YOUR HAT, INSTEAD OF A
BaIcK.-A genuine down easter has invent
ed a new kind of ii dwellings. They are
made Of India rubber, and are so portable
/, that you can carry row of three story
houses IN your hat.
GALENA BoArs.--The Jeffersonian says
: "rhe steamboat competition in the Up
r per River trade, during the next summer
| promises from present appearances, to he a
positive detriment to the city. We under
stand the price Of passage to St. Paul, is
fixed by one Of the parties, at $3.50. This
} is too low; but if owners can live at it, pas
, sengers can, we are sure. II the same sys-
tenn, however, is pursued tina. has to a great
err or less extent prevailed heretofore, oil
boarding those going up, for day or two
or more, on the boats before starting, the
city would be richer If no traveller passed
r through il at ALL"
MAEsHAL.-The Nat. Int, of the 18th
announces the confirmation Of Joseph w
Furbcr, as Marshal Of Minnesota.
ROUTE re MINNEsorA.-The Galena
Jeffersonian says:

, prise of Galena, in establishing a line o
three boats, To run between this city and ST
