talented lawyer, and viii: fill the Office if elected,

Sr. ANTHONY, Oct. 3, 1855.
Mr.. r. CnCrE-Chairman of the Republican
Committee Of Ramsey County:
- You will please announce to the Republicans Of
Ramsey County, that will not be candidate at
the coming election for the Office Of District At
torney, for which was nominated at their Coun-
ty Convention. Your Committee will of course
take such measures may seem best to them for
filling the vacancy on the County ticket.
Yours, &C., D. a. SECCOMBE.
LIE SUEUR.-Our friends in this place are at
work, and we hope to hear a good account from
them on the 9th of October. They need a little
more back bone. Stand up, gsntemen-stand
firmly up on the Platform of Right-do your best
to succeed, and remember if you are defeated,
you die in a good cause.
THE Mass MxErIxc.-The Republican Mass
Meeting at the Court House, Wed. evening, was
well attended. and ably addressed by J. B. San
born, NJ. S. Wilkinson and c. D. Gil6llan, Esqrs.
Their speeches made the Rice men quake. Give
them light, gcntlemen-give them light, and thus
shame the Devil.
Nor YET FoUxD.-Mr. Joseph Marshall returned
from New York city, few days since, and informs
us that ut ono time the police officers were just
two hours behind the ab.conding Howitz. Tho
opinion is, that he is secreted somewhere in tho
thing, having attachment on the stock of goods
the forgcr left behind him.
ST. ANTHONY NoxIxArIoxs.-The Republicans Of
St. Anthony met on Monday evening last, and
nominated Richard Chute, ESQ.,, for Councillor,
Mr.. Stratton and ID. 4. Scecombe, for the House.
Mr.. Chutc's nomination must meet with the cor.
dial appreciation Of every Republican. He is
man OF excellent business tact, unexceptionable
character, an advocate Of Temperance, and a
strong backbone Republican. We most sincerely
trust that he will occupy seat in our next Legis-
laturc.
We are not acquainted with Mr.. Stratton, but
learn that he is good man. Mr. Scccombe is
we'll known, and if the Republicans do their duty,
the whole ticket will be elected.
The PoErlc SnERIrr.-An Independent
candidate for Sheriff in Dakota Co.. asks the
people tc vote for him in the following four lines.
We think he will do, and the people by all
means should vote for him:
Vote for gentlemen, every man,
I'm sSr a sheriff ever ran;
Rice-m~r, Msr,hall-m"n, OIins~i-rnen, al,
On the 9Th "f tDctebcr respond 10 this call!
POLITICAL BOOrs.-Caniidatcs who are anxious
to run for Office, should be supplied with good
pairs Of boots. Notice what b. W. Morse Co.
say on tn, subject, and then govern yourselves
accordingly.
CDEERlxG.--ln almost every town on the Upper
the Republicans wi II give an excellent
vote for Mr. Marshali. Several Rice men have
deserted thcir leader and will vote for the Repub-
lican candidate.
Coxlso DorS.- 4 large number Of logs arc
now at st. AEtbony, and othsys are ccnins down.
We are informed that sufksient quAntit; will be
got out this fall, for slI psrssical purposes. On
Monday last, Rum river at Anoka, was crowded
with logs on tIssir way to the Boom, while
the logs have bssn plentiful in the Mississippi
river, shat che fssy boats At Anoka and 1T Rice
Creek, have beea unable to run. As We predict
cd some weeks since, the logs are down, the mills
are running, the lumbefmcn are in great gIse, the
prise Of building will be cheaper, and good time
generally will prevail in Aiinnesota-providsd
Mr.. Aasshali is elected and the principles Of tho
Republieas Party are triumphant.
