SLAVERY TO BE INTRODUCED INTO
MINEsoTA.--The Telegraph, published
at Burlington, Iowa, points out one con-
sequence of the passing of the Nebras-
ka bill, to which, we believe, the public
attention has not yet been called:
The western half of Minnesota which
lies north of this State and west of the
Mississippi, forms a part of the old
Louisiana territory, in which slavery
was prohibited by the Missouri compro-
mise Should the Nebraska bill become
law, this western half of Minnesota
will become a slave territory, whilst
the eastern half will remain free under
the ordinance of 1897. This will rem
der a division of the present territory
unavoidable, and if Congress should be
at a loss for name for the new sover-
eighty, we would respectfully suggest
that it be christened after the soubri-
quet of its distinguished sponsor, Lit
tie Giant"

"No PRINTERS THERE.-The report
of the Inspectors of State Prisons dis
closes the very gratifying fact that Of
the large number of convicts now in
the prisons of the State, there is not a
single printer, while nearly all the other
occupations are represented. This is a
fact honorable to the craft, and afford
ing evidence of the general good char
acter of those engaged in it."
The ''devil" of the New York Tn
5une adds that his opinion is that rum
and morning papers kill off all who are
naturally big fools enough to get into
State Prison, and the balance of them
are entirely too smart to get stuck with
such a job as that. The craft is often
hard up, but they take care not to get
so far out of sorts as that.

BREcKINRIDGE Coal CoMPAEY.-We
have before alluded to the peculiarly ex-
ceilent properties and the great supe-
riority of this newly discovered camel
coal. Recent analytical experiments
show that for the manufacture of gas
FIT is unparalleled Nothing hitherto
known contains SO small quantity of
carbon or SO great proportion of gas.
1t is destined to come into general use
wherever gas is manufactured Even
in Pittsburg it must supersede their own
coal for this purpose, inasmueh as the
Breckinridge yields 63.59 of volatile
matter (or gas) against 39.95 of the
latter. When this is considered, con-
joined with the fact that it burns bright
er and freer than any other bituminous
coal known, and that it also imparts
better light and far greater heat. we
hesitate not to aver that these mines
will prove more productive and profta-
bic than any ever yet worked, and that
those who have got their fingers in this
pie will pull out many rich plum
We know Of no investment that promises
to be more lucrative.

TWO WAYS.


There are two ways to live on earth
Two ways to judge-to act-to view;
For all things here have double birth
A right and wrong---a false and true
Give me the home where kindness seeks
To make that sweet which seemeth ANAL:
Where every lip in fondness speaks,
And every mind hath care for all.
Whose inmates live in glad exchange
Of pleasures, free from vain expense;
Whose tho'ts beyond their ways neer range,
Nor wise denials give offence
Who in neighbor's fortune find
No wish-no impulse--to complain;
Who feel not-ueyer felt-the mind
To envy yet another's gain
Who dream, not of the mocking tide
Ambitions foiled endeavor meets
The bitter pangs of wounded pride,
Nor fallen power that shuns the streets.
Though Fate deny its glittering store,
Loves wealth is still the wealth to choose /;
For all that gold can purchase more
Are gauds it is no loss to lose
Some beings wheresoe'r they 60,
Find nought to please, or to exalt--
Their constant study but to show
Perpetual modes of finding fault.
While others in the ceaseless round
Of daily wants and daily care,
Can yet Gull flowers from common ground,
And twice enjoy the joy they share.
Oh! happy they who happy make
Who, blessing still themselves are blest
Who something spare for others sake,
And strive. in all things for the best!

INDIAN FANDANGo.-One of the social reunions
which'are of common occurrence among our Indian
tribes, took place near Shinglc Greek, about two
miles from this p,see, Tuesday evening last.
Some Of our citizens, impelled by curiosity visited
the scenes of festiyity and inform us they were we'll
repaid for the trouble. After leaving town they
elected one of their number, old mountaineer to
act as captain, and proceeded to the encampmcnt
of the Indians which they found to be an enclosure
of about two acres, with only one entrance, at
which was stationed sentinel who called for the
American captain and demanded IN entrance fec
of one dollar, claiming that when the Indians vis
ted an American fandango (nneaning n circus
they had to pay two dollars, and they conceived it
to be Just and fair that Americans should pay one
dollar to sec an Indian fandango. After parlcying
awhile i was agreed to admit the Americans for
fifty cents each, and SO many of them as had Or
could borrow thcamount wert in; the rest went
tance unless they pungled.
The Indians consisted of both sexes from Placer
VILE Mud Springs, Cosumnes Kelsey and Coioma,
and were rugged out in their fantastic garbs. The
first part Of the performance was feast, after
which the head chief made lengthy speech, which
was listened to with attention but owing to the
ignorance Of their language Of those who attended
it was not translated therefore cannot give it to
our readers After the speech each chief gathered
around him his tribe, and then commenced the
dancing AID singing gwhichwaa keptupmntii late
hour with great degree of interest and decorum
much to the satisfaction Of themselves and the spec
tators.
