bright side of this worlds doings. As in
stances, we would state that our good neigh
bors, Messrs. Gibbs, Griggs, and others of
Dakota County are in the habit of unloading
at our Office door nearly every morning, a
days supply of the finest melons that earth
ever produced.
We became enthusiastic a few days since
down in the valley of Root River, at finding
an old-fashioned Ohio "plum orchard' where
the red ripe wild fruit hung in clusters that
would have tempted and seduced much
stronger minded' women than old Mother
Eve. But the sack of plums from the Can
non River country, sent us few days since
by our old friend, Durand of the Cannon
Falls House, placed the Root River product
entirely in the shade. The folks at the Falls
House may rest assured they are gratefully
remembered by the Minnesotian and all the
people connected with the institution

MinueSQta Land Sales.

This notice comes with crushing weight or
actual settlers. 1t takes them by surprise
A more mtimely notice never emanated
from an Executive. Thousands upon thou
sands of eastern emigrants based their settle
ment upon these lands with an assurance of
an unmolested future. Then why this notice =?
Why the sale? Is it done to reward politi-
cal fidelity? or is it done to put money into
the pockets of fawning sycophants that this
trap is sprung upon unsuspecting set
tiers How is this, will Executive papers
inform us? 1t is with deep regret we notice
the fiendish levity that is displayed by Off
cial papers in the Territory, exultinc with
great glee, over the rich entertainment spread
out before its officials. This is humiliating,
it debases the better part of man. 1t is
treachery without the hope of sanctity.
Our present land system is curse rather
than blessing. There is enough domain
and to spare, were it not for the hungry vul-
lures that prey upon its vitals. Give to the
deserving but in Heavens name lop off all
eXcresences.
Placing these lands in market Just at this
time has hungry look Who is to be fed

suffered all the privations of frontier life

gives way to land-shark encased in mill
tary land warrants. AS a consequence the
tide OF emigration seeks some other channel.

braska, that offers an asylum for the Cypress
ed? Where is Douglas, Atchison and String
fellow, let them answer! If it is painful to

1t is hoped better councils may prevail and
the sales be postponed. BY so doing the
government may arrest the worst species of
political gambling and thereby gladden. the
hearts of thousands of families whose all lies
in the presumption of 160 acres, with not a
cent to redeem their improvements in case
the sales are continued. Assist the weak,
and II the means be at hand, control the
powerful.

New York, August "a.
The steamship North Star arrived at this
port this morning. She brings one days
later advices from Europe.
Advices from the Baltic state that the Al
lied feet were drawn up in front of Swea-
burg on the morning of the 7th, and the
bombardment was to commence the same
afternoon. isFfs
The Allies new batteries were not to be
unmasked until the general bombardment.
Great activity was displayed at all points
of the Crimea.
The Russians were fortifying Arobat, and
at Kars they were preparing to oEeM their
first parallel on the 18th of July.
1t was intimated at Paris, that Count Blu
oil had received declaration on the part Of
England and France, that they did not wish
by new negotiations to forestall the more
decisive events of the war.

They continue to do things up most bear
tifally in the Kansas mob Legislature. The
following are some of the last specimens:
AFTERNOON Session, Aug. 3.
The following is copy Of Mr.. SCOTS bill
concerning free negroes or mulattoes:
SEB. /. That no person shall keep OF
teach any school within this Territory for the
instruction of slaves, free negroes or mulat-
toes.
SEC. 2. No meeting or assembly of ne
groes or mulattoes for any purpose of reli-
gious worship, or for any other purpose, shall
be held or permitted where the services are
conducted by slaves, free negroes or mulat-
toes unless sheriff, constable or Justice of
the peace for the county in which said meet
ing shall be held shall be present during the
time of such meeting in order to prevent Sc
ditious speeches and disorderly conduct of all
kinds.
Sec. 3. All meetings of Slaves, free ne
groes and mulattoes for the purpose mem
toned in the two preceding sections shall be
deemed unlawful assemblies, and shall be
suppressed by any sheriff, constable or other
peace officer.
Sec 4. No free negroe or mulatto shall
under any pretence emigrate to this country
from any other Territory or State.
Sec. 5. If any white person shall violate
any of the provisions of this act he shall for
every such offence be punished by fine and
Imprisonment in the discretion of the court
if the offender be free negroe or mulatto,
he may be punished by like fine and i'm
prisonment OF by stripes not exceeding thirty
nine lashes.
This act shall take effect from and after its
passage.
Mr.. Anderson introduced an act concern
ing jurors. 1t was read first time. The
thirteenth section is in these words:
Sec. Ii. No person WHO'S conscientious
ly opposed to holding slaves, or who does
not admit the right to hold slaves in this
Territory, shall be juror in any cause in
which the right to hold any person in slavery
is involved, nor in any cause in which any
injury done to, or committed by any slave is
in issue, nor in any criminal proceeding fol-
the violation of any law enacted for the pro-
lection Of slave property, and for the pun
ishment of crimes committed against the
right to such property.
The only fitting parallel to the above, says
the Chicago Tribune, would be an act de-
claring that none but thieves should sit on q
jury when pick-pockets are to be tried, OF
that none but murderers should be qualified
jurors in cases of manslaughter. But pass
both acts-the original and the parallel, and
legal occupants of the jury box would not
be found wanting as long as Missouri is SO
near.

LOGS ON THE FALLs.-More than mil
lion feet of logs are still piled up on the
rocks, at the head of the islands, and along
the bed of the river above and below the
falls of st. Anthony, where they have been
lodged some for one year, some for two
years, and a few for three years, for want of
high water. The river is now exceedingly
low, so that it could be probably fordcd by
horse team if any body cared to run the
risk. On the bare rocks about a third way
from Hennepin Island to the further shore,
and at the head of Godfrey's Island, Wey-
mouth Folsom has put up temporary build
ing, and furnished it with single machine
to be employed in saving up those long ne
elected logs, by water power We doubt if

But one saw in the St. Anthony mills has
been running for more than week, except
as few hardwood logs occasionally came in

HARD TIMEs.-Thc times arc tight and
will probably be tighter. Money is scarce ::
and it will probably be scarcer. We have
raised nothing this year for expectation, and
even our surplus lumber cannot be cot TO
market. The river is constantly running
itself down, freights are pretty stiff, and all
sorts of business arc dull as August
ARMY WORMS AND BLACK BlRDs.-Wc
still hear of many oat fields destroyed by
these worms. One field of 30 acres has
been sold standing for $40. On Major Frid-
ley's farm $50 bushels of oats were sown-
the harvest is hardly worth gathering. In
some instances the corn fields have been at
tackled. We hear of one corn field in which
the worms were making considerable pro-
gress, when cloud of blackbirds came
along, and devourcd the dcvourers all clear.
The farmers would like that pretty we'll if
the black birds themselves wouldn't stop for
further picking.
