An INCIDENT AT TIE FALL OF SEBAsroPoL.-The
following romantic story is from the letter of q
soldierto his friends in Glasgow, published in the
North British Mail: = ..
'I might as we'll tell little incident that oc-
Cured in the town. A party of men, belonging
to different regiments, were patrolling from house
to house, in search of plunder. In one of the
houses, they came across beautiful young female,
about IL or l8 years of age. Of course, some ri
valry was shown amongst the party, who COM
menced to drag her about, and would have used
violence to her, had not a young man belonging
to the 1lth taken musket and threatened to
blow the first mans brains out that laid finger
on her; whereupon, the young woman few to
this man and clung to him for protection. She
followed him all the way back to the camp
When coming in sight of the camp, he beckoned
for her to return but no, she would not leave
him. Whether she had fallen in love with him at
first sight, don't know but she came to the
camp with him. As soon as he got there, he was
instantly confined for being absent when the regi-
ment was under arms. She followed him to the
guard tent, and cried after him. The Colonel of
his regiment, seeing the affection she bore him,
released him, and sent them both to Gen. Paris
where an interpreter was got, and she related the
whole affair to them. 1t turns out that she is a
Generals daughter, with some thousands. She
was beautifully attired, and carried gold watch
and wore set of bracelets Of immense value
The young man is now about to be married to her.
She will not leave him upon any account what
ever; and if he is not a lucky dog, don't know
who is.'

LAND Orrrcr IN THE MINNESOTA VAL

LAND OrFIcE IN THE MINNESOTA VAL
LEr.-There is no point in the whole Territory
where land Office is more urgently needed,
than in the Minnesota Valley. Hundreds of
settlers have been obliged during the past sum.
mer to travel hundreds Of miles at an expense
of hundreds of dollars and loss of time, to en-
ter their lands, whereas, if an Office had been
located any where in the Valley this money
would have been saved, and much trouble
avoided to honest but poor men. Our Delegate
deserves censure for overlooking this part Of
the Territory, but we hope with the light now
before him, he will use some exertions to pro-
cure for the settlers in the Minnesota Valley
the same rights enjoyed by settlers in other parts
of the Territory.

CHoArE, EVERETT, HUNr.-The opposition
press are gloating over the fact that these old
fogies will not unite with the Republicans and
therefore deduce as the result that the Republi-
can party will fall to pieces! 1t is singular
conclusion but one that answers the purposes of
our opponents. Who are these men None
other than those who, through long career,
sought to kill the Wing party, and who voted
and worked against the gallant Scott, than whom
a braver soldier never lived. They belong to
the 18th century-cannot peer into the future
have no sympathy with the living, stirring
issues of the age, but hope, by hanging on to
the coat-tail Of the past generation, to eventu-
ally reach the Capitol! Strange hallucination
We want the young and middle-aged men Of
energy and backbone in the Republican party,
and with these we can well dispense with such
slow coaches as the acknowledgement Choate,
Everett and Hunt!

LAKE SUPERIoR.-It seems that the vote
cast for Barstow at Lake Superior, in Wiscon-
sin, was much less than the vote cast for Rice
and McCracken, in Minnesota, on the 9th Of
October. In the counties of Doty and Supe-
rior in our own Territory, the vote for Henry
Nj. Rice, was over 400. The vote for Barstow,
at the great city Of Superior, and the surround
ing region in Wisconsin, was 1O2, of which
Barstow received So and Bashford 8. In La
Pointe County, in Wisconsin, but 40 votes were
cast, all of which were given for Barstow.---
