following love story: a

To prevent him so bold and unda united:
But as smited by lightning he heard her exclaim,
"Avaunt SIR" and off he avaunted.
But when he returned, with the .fendishea laugh,
Showing clearly that he afronted,
And threatened by main force to carry her Off
She cried ''don't:' and the poor fellow donted.
When he meeky approached and down at her feet
Praying loud before he had rantei,
That she wOull forgive him, and try to be sweet,

In the hurry of the business at our Office,
consequent upon our Daily enterprise, we have
not been able to pay that attention to the bus
mess operations of the city, that we should
have done. 1t is matter of surprise to US,
that so much business is done in this city, by
persons arriving from below, and it is still
more surprising that our merchants are retail
ing goods at rates so satisfactory to the new
Corners.
Owing to the difficulty with which freights
can be got forward, but few of our merchants
have yet been able to get on their spring sup
ply, and hence the reason, probably, why they
sell so cheap now, being DESTROYS of making
room for their new stock Whatever may be the
cause, the fact is evident, and acknowledged by
all who have come to the city this spring, that
goods of all kinds are rctaied cheaper in ST.
Paul than either in Galena or Dubuque Those
who sell the cheapest may be ascertained by
reference to the PIONEER. Their advertise
mcnts tell the tale.

A Rem arkable Man.

At a temperance meeting held in Alabama, about
six years ago. COL L:nanousky, who had been %
years in the armies of Napoleon Bonaparte, address
sed the meeting. He arose before the audience, tall,
erect and vigorous, with glow Of health upon his
check, and said:
''You see before you man 20 years old. have
fought two hundred battles have fourteen wounds on
my body, have lived thirty days on horse flesh, with
the bark Of trees for my bread, and ice Cor my
drink the canopy of heaven for my covering, without
stockings shoes my feet, and only few rags Of
clothing. In the deserts Of Egypt have marched
for days with the burning upon rEnaked head
feet bstered in the scorching sand, and with eyes,
nostrils and mouth filed with dust-and with thirst
so tormcnting that have opened the veins Of my
arms and sucked my blood! d. you ask me
how have survived all these horror! answer that
under the providence of God, owe my preservation,
my health and my viyor, to this fact, that never
drank drop of spirituous liquors in my fc
''And,' continued he, Barron Larry, chief of the
medical staff of the French army, has stated as a
fact, that the 5000 survivors, who had safely re-
turned from Egypt were all of them men who had
abstained from ardent spirits.''

We are credibly informed that there will be
party of some two or three hundred persons
from New Y Ork, Boston and Philadelphia, who
contemplate visiting Minnesota the coming
summer. They intend to come by Railroad to
Rock Island an / then will charter one of those
splendid boats which ply on the Mississippi, to
bring them to this city.
There are also some two hundred persons
from Chicago, and as many from ST. Louis
who expect to pass the summer months in Min
nesota, many of them with their families.
They are men of wealth who wish to pass a
month or two in the Territory, for recreation,
and it is important that there should be means
provided for their comfortable accommodation.
Why, we ask again, are not those large Hotels
at the Upper and the Lower part of town
opened?

A Question of Priority.

In our initiatory article of Monday morning
last, we stated some facts connected with the
history of The PIONEER establishment, whose
purport the Democrat misconccives, and to
which it takes exceptions. These facts we at
tached no Importance to-they were stated in
testimony of the enterprise of those who had
preceded us, and with no design either to give
an undue Importance to our own establishment,
or to disparage any other. And, had not our
contemporary desired to be over captious, he
must have seen that such was our intention ;
for in our Tuesdays notice of his first number,
we expressly disclaimed the idea of making a
point with him as to priority of issue. Lest,
however, he should still misapprehend us, we
state directly, that we claim no merit whatever
for having kept our engagement with the pub
lie in issuing The DAILY PIONEER at the day
promised; and still less do we pretend to be
the originator of the daily newspaper enter
prise.
What we said with reference to COL Coop
HUE, we still believe to be substantially cor
rect. He proceeded SO far in making prepare
lions for daily, as to purchase a variety Of
materials for the purpOse-some of which are
now used on The PIONEER. He had selected
the site for a building, which, had he lived
would have been erected last season; and it
was his desi ign, announced to those in his con-
fidence, to commence this seasons operations
on a scale far more extensive than we propose
to follow.
These facts we limited at as matters connect
ed with the history of The PIONEER office; and
there was nothing in our manner of alluson to
justify the reflections of the Democrat against
the integrity of Col. GooDHUEs intentions.
We have hoped, that the feeling of rancor-
GUS hostility which seems to have impregnate1
the very types of the Democrat against the orig
inator of The PIONEER, during his life, would
have died away with his death; or that, at
least, in the purchase of that establishment by
its present proprietor, he would not have con-
sidered its Jealousy and Malignity, as parts of
the goods and chattels transferred We still
hope the future may ptc these things not to
be so; but that, casting aside the unworthy
prcjudices ofthOse who preceded him, the present
editor of the Democrat may act according to
the suggestions of his own more generous in
pulses. In that case, our intercourse will be
such as should characterize those belonging to
an honorable profession, and our rivalry such
only as grows up from a spirited, manly com
petition.

IMPROVEMENT IN LODGING.-ShOrtly after
the opening of navigation, the Central House
became so GRAINED that not another could be
accommodated, and one evening after Uncle
Burton had been under the painful necessity
of turning off applicants for lodging, he felt
very much annoyed, and without knowing or
caring very much what he was doing, he pick
up candle to go out to the dial to ascertain
the time of night, when to his surprise he
found four persons leaning up against the flag
staff asleep. He for few moments contem-
plated their appearance, his active mind all
the while Illuminating upon the advantage he
might derive from the discovery, and then
quietly turned into the house, and directed his
clerk not to charge the four boarders that
were sleeping against the flag staff but half
price, and by no means to turn off applica nts
for lodging hereafter. BY slight improve
ment he is now able to pile them around the
flag staff ad libitum, his only difficulty being
to get the early risers on the outside row.

Daily Papers.
petition.

Few appreciate the good that is resulting to
the Territory by the publication of Daily pa
pers in this city.
Deep interest is felt in the eastern and south
ern States in all that pertains to Minnesota.
and but few arrive either with view of locat-
ing or as transient visitors, who do not imme-
diatcly obtain Daily paper to send back to
some friend This is bringing our Territory
into still greater notice IN the States and add
ing much to the reputation for enterprise which
our city previously possessed.
The press, by making known abroad the
beauty and fertility of our Territory, and the
commercial advantages possessed by st. Paul,
has led to the settlement of the one, and the
consequent prosperity of the other. The adj
vance of from six hundred to two thousand
per cent. in city property within the last four
or five years, is directly attributable to the
press The anxiety with which eastern capt.
talists are watching our progress, and the strong
desire to secure the business of the Territory,
manifested by various rail road and steamboat
companies, are all attributable to the same
source. Minnesota is emphatically paper
Territory, st. Paul paper city Not that
they exist only on paper they are populous
and powerful. But they are the offspring of
the Newspaper press they were nurtured and
strengthened by the Newspaper press, and they
arc now looking for their patrimony to the
Newspaper Press, and that patrimony is now
being provided by the Daily publications.
Whatever may be the effect of the enterprise
on the pockets of the proprictors, no doubt ex-
lists that the publication of Daily papers is hav-
ing good effect upon the business prospects
of ST. Paul and the Territory.

To THE PoINr.-Sir Charles Napier has had the
reputation Of being daring commander, whose au-
dacity is always equal the enthusiasm Of the
he commands. The following address to his fleet is
characteristic, and quite Napoleonic in its
and pith:
"LADs:-War is declared! You are to meet a
bold and numerous army. Should they offer battle,
you know how to dispose of them. Should they
main in port, We must try to get at them. Success
depends the quckness and precision Of your fire.
Lads-sharpcn your cutlasses, and the day is your
own:''
Napier is seventy years of age; and yet he is re-
ally as young in spirit as men at forty The Russians
will find him an indomitabc foe.
AGREAr MONEY GArHERKR.-The accounts
Of Hugh Maxwell, ex-collector Of New York, have
been closed at Washington to the entire satisfaction
Of Government. The amount received by Mr.. Max
we'll during his term of Office exceeded Fill, 0O0,-
600.
ANOTHER New TERRIToRY.-It is stated that
the people Of Carson Valley have agreed to make APP
picaion to Congress to be separated from Utah and
formed into new territory, to be bounded on the
east 10y the Goose Creek Mountain, north by Oregon
and south and west by California. The area inclu-
ded within these limits is about one-third Of the ter
ritory Of Utah, Of which it is the western part. It
is remote from the Mormon settlement, and its nhab-
itants are not MOrmOns.
Professor Agassiz, recent lecture before the
Lowell Institute, in Boston, stated his belief that the
human existed hundred and fifty tousand years
ago.
While in America the proportion of persons who
60 to school Of some kind is in FIVE, in Russia
it is one in two hundred and twenty!
There is yet sufficient amount of unoccupied ter
rtory in the possession Of the United States to make
two hundred and twenty five states large Massa-
chusetts. This territory, if settled densely as
Massachusetts would contain population Of two hun
dred and twenty-five millions, which, added to our
present population would give us total Of two
hundred and forty-eiyht millions, population equal
that Of all the nations Of Europe taken together.
The New York Courier and Enquirer, one Of the
leading whis papers of the country, in article re-
fe,ring to the manifold sins and bunders Of its party,
says:-"The wing party national party. has
nothing in its late history upon which it dwell
with satisfaction, and nothing in its future to which
it can look forward with hope.''
