LORD RAGLAN, it appears by the Tele-
graph news from the Crimea, is dead. The
second in rank is also III. and the command
has for some time back been actually in the
hands Of Gen. Simpson, veteran officer
who distinguished himself in India. The
fact Of Lord Raglan's illness was stated in
the House of Lords some weeks since, and
remarked upon in the advices received pre-
vious to those we publish to-day. He is
aged, and there is every probability that he
has passed away from worldly strife AS
the remains of Marshal st. Arnaud were
carried to Paris, and inferred with pompous
public funeral ceremonies, it is to be pre-.
suned that the English officer will receive

THE SECOND WARD.

The meeting at the Court House this af.
ternoon should be attended by every Dem
ocrat of the Ward, and we trust that the
real Importance of the occasion will be ap-
preciated. Those who do not love the
Democratic party, and who oppose it by
every means whatever. are secretly indulging
the hope that there will be discussions ere
ated, and if they have any influence they
will be made. Every Democrat should
feel it his duty to give the best denial pos.
sible to this, by uniting cordially and har-
moniously, and by the selection of men for
Delegates in whom general confidence can
be placed by the party at large, make a
good beginning for the contest which is to
come.

The editor of the Times, with want Of
courtesy as remarkable as it is to be cen
sured, takes not only the Pioneer at large,

cation Of some comments upon vinegar

We have no objections to the extra-super.
fine notions of the editor, but have no dis.
position to have them wasted upon u.s.
Neither is it profitable to read a tumble Of
confused arguments which appears to have
been prepared at the same time for and
against a Theatre, then cut into pieces and
mixed up promiscuously Neither is there
much value to be placed in assertions such
as that sleeping in the immediate neighbor.

New YORK, July l6.
Judge Culver, of the Supreme Court In
Brooklyn, had entered an action for q libel a.

Dakota County.

We call the attention of Democrats OF
Minnesota Territory to q Card which
will befound in our columns to day, address
sed by the regularly constituted democrat
ic committee of Dakota to the party at
large. 1t will serve to show the des-
perate nature of the game which thefriendS
of Mr.. Rice are determined to play, in, Or
der to secure his nomination, and the un-
.cr,nuIonsC course of the Democrat in en-
dorsipr their dis-organizng course. The
communication of the committee places the
facts of the case in their proper light before
the party and the Territory, and the char
acter Of the men composing it is sufficient
voucher of the correctness of their state
ments. The Democrat would do we'll to
exercise little more tact, if no other single
quality, than to appear us the defender of
such barefaced imposition as attempted to
be palmed off by the Rice men from Ram
sey county, who made so ridiculous an APP
appearance at Mendoza. We learn that
more than one of the individuals nominated
by the bogus Convention have utterly repu-
dated any connection with the proceedings,
and will no more appear when called for
than they would were they Spirits from the
vastly Deep" The proceedings published
by US yesterday, embody the sentiments of
nine tenths of the Democracy Of Dakota
county, which the Democrat is as we'll a.
ware of as VIC are. That print may pursue
its own course of denunciation because the
prominent and reliable democrats of the
Territory are not in favor of Mr.. Rice. In
our opinion the fat of that journal has long
since ceased to be regarded as gospel truth
by men of any party, and can do nobody
either good or harm. 1t is incumbent, how
ever npon the Territorial Convention to set
its seal of Reproduction upon all measures,
like these of the bogus Convention, to Gre
ave ulVlsSioh duu uiSSeuSlon III tue uouo'

the regularly nominated delegates from the

fair hearing, undisturbed by the unauthor-
lied interference of men who have no shad-
ow of claim to be considered as empowered
to participate in the proceedings of the con-
gressional convention.

Haunted House in NewpOrt-NIan Kille,
by STANDARDIZATION Doings.

by Spirits-Mysterious Doings.
We are informed that a haunted house has
been discovered in Newport-that this insti-
tuition of venerable and ghostly and deathly
associations is situated on Madison street, near
the suspension bridge, and that it was recently
occupied by family named Parks. There
has been much sickness in the house, and very
often in the middle of the night strange noises
have been heard-sounds similar to those made
by striking violently with small stick on the
stove, rumbling and smart raps on the walls
and heavy blows on the floor, while the furni-
ture has had queer habits of uneasiness-
jumping and tumbling about in peculiar
manner. Several families have been frighten-
ed out of the house by continual sickness when
residing in it, and the disturbances we have
indicated. The latest tenant was named
Parks, and there was much illness in his FAM
lily, as in others, and the mysterious knockings,
humping, and spiritual pranks generally, very
much annoyed and alarmed him About a
week since Parks walked suddenly, near mid
night, and complained to his wife that he was
dreadfully thirsty, but spiritual demonstrations
were then being made about the premises with
such sound and fury, that he said he was afraid
to 60 for drink. His wife seems to have been
composed of sterner stuff as she said to him:
"1n the name of the Devil, if you want drink
60 and get 1.-THE Devil will protect you from
the ghosts! AT this he hesitated no longer,
but leaped out of the bed and started down
stairs, but had only descended one step when
he was preciptated headlong to the bottom
of the fight, and, falling upon his head, his
neck was broken and he died instantly! His
frightened family, believing that he had been
killed by "spirits" kept his death concealed,
buried him as privately as possible, without
the knowledge of the Coroner, and then fed to
parts unknown. Only two or three persons
outside the family saw the corpse. One OF
those was an old pedlar woman, through whom
this story comes. There is no doubt of the
sickness of the house, but that is fairly &C
counted for by the fact that it was built
where foul swamp had been, and that a
swampy pestient spot is now just behind the
place. There is no mistake about Park Is
death, and that man should break his neck
in falling down stairs at night is not mysteri-
Gus, though in this case it seems to be so re-
garded, and that the woman's appeal to the
Devil had any part in bringing about the ca
tastrophe, we do not see clearly. AS to the
strange noises we cannot speak in explanation.
