GOVERNOR STEVENS ExPEDIrIoN.-Sev.
era persons who were engaged by Govern
or Stevens in his exploration having return
ed dissatisfied, efforts have been made. in
which the ST. Anthony Express is disposed
to Join, 10 create prejudice against tbo
Governor as being unreasonable, arbitrary,
sc. Now we know nothing OF these indb
viduals, but would caution any persons
against allowing themselves in any way to
censure Governor Stevens, until they hear
the other side Of the story. II would b
singular il party Organized with as little
time for preparation as was afforded 10 this
case, should not contain many persons who
were entirely uns1ited to perform the ardu-
Gus duties for which they were employed
Many persons engaged for The expedition,
anticipating no doubt, that they would hare
a lengthy, but pleasant and romantic Tida
across lbe prairies, and that their greatest
hardships would be confined 10 sleeping on
the ground and shooting buffalo. But The
romance Of such an expedition soon vanish
es, and the fatigue incidentto ihe campaign,
such as crossing rivers, extricating wagons
from the sloughs, and guarding the teams
nightly, from the encroachmenis Of marau-
ding Indians, becomes to be viewed in any
other light than that of pastime. Govern
or Stevens was himself fNly impressed win
the arducus nature Of the undertaking, and
remarked 10 us whilst here, that il would
be anything hut pleasant excursion, that
he expected himself to undergo the most
ineessant fatigue and hardships, and that 10
drSaeS tcouid be aAoicea in his camp.
We have always regarded the selection o.
Governor Stevens as the chief OF this ex-
pedition, as most fortunate for the Interests
Of the "gFeat northern route" His ex-
tensive scientific requirements, his eminenl
administrative talents, as manifested in ths
late lsbOrious 'nd responsible service q
which he has been engaged, and above all,
the indomitable spirit Of energy and perse-
Verance for which he is distinguished, marx
him as pre- eminenily THE man to conSui'
this great eDteTPrise.-tSt. Paul Democrsi-
