A DEBATING SoclErY.-We most cordially
endorse the suggestion Of a correspondent in
to-day's paper, that a Debating Society be es-
tablished in our midst; if not connected with
the Historical Association, then let us have one
Independent of that institution,-but by all
means let one be established. a"H H." very truly
remarks, that " mechanics have, comparatively,
but few inducements to learn the AFT of public
speaking, while to the lawyer the study and
practice of oratory isan indispensable necessity"
And yet some of the most eminent men in this
country and Europe were once mechanics, who
laid the foundation for their future greatness
within the walls of the Debating School. Two
of our OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES now a member Of
Congress and the other Secretary of State
mechanics commenced their careers in a De-
batting Society less than seven years ago. From
the same institution four ministers and five ed
itors have gone out into the world, and occupy
honorable positions, all of whom we've mechan-
les. 1t was in an association of this character
where Henry Clay commenced a career that
subsequently, proved so brilliant. And among
those who have gone from the middling to the
higher walks Of literature and influence, we
may mention the names of Franklin, Greeley,
Bayard Taylor and Fillmore. The latter gen.
tleman has occupied the highest Office in the
gift of the people, all were at one time
in their lives members of Debating Societies.
The good these associations have done is incal-
culable. Those who take part in the debates,
must search for facts, and in doing so, the la
tent powers Of the mind are brought into requi-
sitio, and an impetus is given to some genius,
who scars upward and onward, an honor to
himself and an honor to his race. Let the me-
chanics of St. Paul take hold of the matter
themselves. Let them resolve to have Deba-
ting Society, and Debating Society will be
formed. Let them commence their debates
earnestly and vigorously, and it will not be long
before they will have an institution creditable
to the city and creditable to their calling.

HTSTORICAL LECrUREs.

The following we find in the Minnesotian.
The first lecture will be delivered on Thursday
evening, Dec. 18th, by Rev. T. Williamson of
the Sioux Mission. Subject: "Who scere the
First Men of Minneso.a."
The following Thursday evening, the 10th, Rev.
+. d. Neill will lecture upon "Ihe Commerce OF
The llississipps Valley from the Year 1920 to
1120.'
Owing to the Intervention of the Christmas
Holidays, the committee deemed it in proper to
make any further provisions for lectures during
this month later than the Goth.
1t was at first intended by the committee to
have the course of lectures commence on next
Thursday evening, the 9th but the proper Off
GERS of the Society have deemed it best for all
interested to hold on that evening business and
conversational meeting at the Capitol.
After the first week in January, the committee
hope to be able to announce Interesting lectures
weekly. The following gentlemen are on the pro-
gramme for the winter, in addition to those an
nounced above:
NJ. W. Irwin, M. S. Wilkinson, Gov. German,
Ex-G Gov. Ramsey, Rev. DR.. Van lngen, w. L..
Banning, VIM. Hollinshead, M. E. Ames, Judge
B. b. Meeker, Judge Cooper, D. A. Robertson,
Rev. II. NJ. Nicholas, Rev. S. R. Riggs, Rev. Mr..
Capt. Whiting, Judge NJ. Sherburne, Judge A. G.
Chatfeld, A. Van Worries, j. B. Brisbin.
These gentlemen it has been determined to in
vlte to lecture at such times and upon such sub
jects may suit their convenience and tastes.
Hon. Fl. II. Sibley will be invited to deliver the
Annual Address before the Society. The Annual
Meeting for this and other purposes, takes place
on Monday, the 9Th of January.
We think the name of Mr.. Gournsey should
appear among the list of lecturers. Will the COM
mittee inform us?

A NOBLE RESPONSE.

Our readers will remember small para
graph which appeared in the Times last week,
relative to poor German family. Since the
appearance Of that article we have received
some SIS, 90 to be expended in alleviating their
wants. The generous donors are Charles H.
Parker, H. Whittell, J. B. Horn, and the con-
gregation of Rev. E. d. Neill. The following
letter explains itself:--
ST.. PAUL, M. T., Dec. 8, 1855.
T. M. NEwsoN, ESQ.,,
Dear Sir: Enclosed is Five Dollars, a
portion of collection taken at the Presbyteri-
an Mission service, yesterday afternoon. If
the German family spoken of in your paper a
day or two ago, are still needy, please appropri-
ate to their use. ~
S Yours with respect, f ss
fssra ssV e. d. NELL.
B. w. Morse & Co. have contributed shoes,
and William Shredder groceries. The alacrity
with which our citizens respond to the wants Of
the needy in our midst, exhibits spirit worthy
of all praise. Others have contributed, among
whom are several ladies, who can always be
found on missions of mercy. but they desire
that their names should not appear in print.

WHOLESALE Massacre OF WHITES BY INDIANS
---FTrY Men KILLED.---In addition to the start
ling intelligence published by us few days since,
of murders committed in the Southern portion of
the State by Indians, the Yreka Union of SATURDAY.
received yesterday, furnishes US with the subion-
ed painful information. 1t appears that naught
save determination is in store for the savages of
that section Of the country: Pae 1oo" .r7llo
On Tuesday morning, 9th inst, large party
of Indians collected, and started down Rogue
River, killing every white man who happened to
fall in their way. At Evans Ferry they found
two cor three men, whom they murdered, and then
left the river for Wagoner's, where they were
met by party of packers, with large train, who
thing wrong with them. Presently the packers
