Sibley is doing all he can to procure a ia
vorable consideration of the treaties, of
course. He can do much. There are
rumors of opposition from some Of the
late discharged officers; but that opposi-
ton, if sifted to the bottom, can do no
harm. It's believed that the whole OPP
position originates from one man, not now
in the Territory. We respectfully invite
the attention of Senators from Illinois,
Wisconsin and Iowa to the ratification of
these treaties, believing that it is the
unanimous wish of the people that it
should be done, as preliminary and neces-
sary to the growth, prosperity, and devel-
opement of the wealth of Minnesota.
The wider the circle of our dominion en-
larges, the nearer the centre Of population,
of trade and business approaches the
States named. A population west of the
Mississippi, half as great as that now
east of it, would change commercial CEN
tres, turn back the tide of trade and
travel, and produce a radical revolution
in our policy, and give States lying on the
Mississippi the advantages now njoyed
only by those on the Atlantic shore.
Western men must be true to Western
interests, and stand to their guns man
fully. In this spirit only will the West
achieve her triumphs.

CHOW WING, Feb. IL, 1852

CHOW WING, Feb. IL, 1852.
MEssRs. EDIroRs : Although l have
nothing interesting to communicate to
you, can't well help relating an anecdote
which originated at this place, short
time since. Mr.. NJ, an old resident of
this part Of the Territory, and well known
as very energetic Indian trader; having
been very successful in trading for and
purchasing .furs from the Indians, for
several years past, was taken sick, some
six weeks ago; and after the lapse of eight
or ten days, during which time he grad
ually grew worse, his friends became
alarmed, and considered his case quite
pfecarious one. About this time, Cath
Ole priest made visit to this place; and,
hearing of Mr.. Ms. sickness, called up
on him; commenced by administering re-
ligious consolation to him, and wound up
by enjoining upon him the great neces-
sity OF coniessing-i. e. making 'clean
breast Of tin order TO prepare for
change Of worlds; to which NJ. promptly
objected. The priest continued his ad-
jurations-told him of his awful condition.
&c, and again besought him to confess;
but still NJ. refused.
Finding all his efforts vain, the priest
was about TO take his leave; when NJ, al
though in much pain, raised himself part
ly up in bed, and in full tone, said:
MY friend, one word before you leave
"What is it, my dear, dying friend?"
was the anxious inquiry of the priest.
80, l just thought l would ask you if you
had any .t'rs for sale?''
lneed not add, that the astonishcd priest
answered in the negative, and vamosed
instanter. l am pleased to say that Mr..
Nj. is convalescent, and appears more
anxious to procure furs than make con-
fessions.
Yours, sc.

Majority for Arportlonment,

Thus it will be seen, giving the oppo-
nents of the apportionment the most for
midable number Of votes to which they
can claim title upon the ceded lands
throwing out precinct in Benton county
where Mr.. Beatty had nineteen votes and
Mr.. Warren none, and making the con-
test in Washington and Chisago between
LOOMS and Greedy, when in reality it was
between LOOMS and Holcombe, who re-
ceived twenty-seven votes less than
Greely-and still this great and truly
Democratic measure, which the Democrat
calls the "Bill of denominations was
sustained by majority of twenty-three !!
Besides, Saml Burkleo was a candidate
upon third ticket run in Washington
and Chisago, and received seventy-seven
votes. tits well known that he advocated
and voted for the apportionment in the last
Council ,and would have sustained it had he
been reelected. We are thus, under the
circumstances, justified in claiming these
twenty-seven as apportionment votes.-
Here then. in reality, we have clear major
ity of over one hundred-ina poll oftwelve
hundred-of the voters residing within
the ceded portion of the Territory, in IA
yor Of giving, not only representation,
but The representation, as it is, to the UNI
ceded counties. A beautiful way of con-
demning the apportionment, these citi-
zens upon the coded lands have shown.
