Manton, Minnesota.

Manton is the name of new town in
Minnesota, opposite La Crosse, and has a
fair prospect of growing up as rapidly as it's
neighbor. 1t seems not to have occurred to
any one until the present year, that bust
ness place would naturally be required on
the West side Of the river, as soon as Min
nesota became settled. Col. Mercer and
Messfs. Gillett, Moore, Draper and several
others, of La Crosse, and A. Lancaster, of
Beloit, Wisconsin, are the principal proprie-
tors. They laid out 125 acres into town lots
in September last, and twelve buildings have
already been erected, and postoffice estab-
lished. A ferry has been in operation during
the past season, and this point has already
become stopping place on the thoroughfare
OF the overland emigrants from Wisconsin to
Southern Minnesota.
The TOWNSHIP is pleasantly situated near
the confluence of several beautiful streams,
flowing through fertile valleys. 1t is very
probable that when the Milwaukee and Mis-
sissippi Railroad is completed to La Crosse,
as it Willis within two years, that a railroad
will then be extended from Manton to the
interior of Minnesota, to intersect the pro-
jected road from Dubuque to ST. Paul, which
will probably pass within forty or fifty miles
OF the river at this point With these pros
poets Manton is unquestionably good place
to invest money in lots or other property
In the Spring, large number of carpenters
and other mechanics will be required, and
as an inducement for families to settle there,
the principal proprietors are about to estab-
lish good Public Dubuque Herald.

Bold Preaching In Washinstsn.

From time to time, and by various ru-
mors, we have learned something of the bold
preaching of the Rev. Mr.. Conway, at Wash
inaton. He is still young man, Virgin
ian by birth, connected with persons OF So
cial and official eminence in the Slave States,
and now occupies the Unitarian pulpit at the
national capital; which in times past was oc-
cupied by Mr.. Sparks and DIR. Dewey. Some
of his sermons have been lately published
by Messrs. Taylor and Maury, Booksellers
at Washington, whose love of Union is un-
questionable. In one of these sermons he
boldly proclaims that "manual labor is de-
graded by evil institutions and social preju-
dices," and then exclaims: "Oh, man! You
are one with your fellow-man; what degrades
him, degrades YOU"
In another sermon the young preacher turns
from the supporters Of Slavery in the South
to rebuke us at the North. After saying
that the Southern people do not hold slaves
in full consciousness of committing sin in
so doing, he justly adds that men are respon-
sible only for living up to the light they have,
and in no wise for that which they have not.
He then proceeds:
eff any pestilence were sent as a special
Judgment, on account Of such thing, (slave-
ry) rather would it be sent on that other
section, who, educated in other views, every
one believing slavery moral sin, have con-
stantly committed themselves to it, and
bowed the knee in Church and State towhat
they knew to be false God.-Boston Tran
script.

act of George ", above referred to-, it is
provided, among other things, that.
No banker, broker, merchant, factor, at
torney, or other agent as aforesaid, shall be
liable to he convicted by any evidence what
ever as an offender against this act in respect
OF any act done by him, if he shall at any
time previously to his being indicted forsucll
offence have disclosed such act, on oath, in
consequence of any compulsory process of
any court OF law or equity in any action, suit
or proceeding which shall have been bona tide
instituted by any party aggrieyed, or if he
shall have disclosed the same in any exami-
nation or deposition before any commission
ers of bankruptcy"
On the strength of this section, state
ment or disclosure was made by the three
defendants in the Court of Bankruptcy, on
June 25th, 1855, after they had been arres-
ted on criminal charge, in which they spoke
of the sale of the $4,000 of bonds in April,
1855, but said nothing about the misappro-
priation of the same in 1854. The Attorney
General contended that this was done by
concert and connivance, and purposely with
= view that the defendants might avail them
selves of the provisions of particular sec
ton of the act, for which reasons it could
not be called compulsory proceeding; ard
the learned presiding baron, after observing
that the disclosure by its terms did not af-
feet the charge preferred in the indictment
against the defendants, very properly instruc-
ted the jury that it would be preposterous to
suppose that person, by voluntary disclos-
ing, OF his own accord, misdemeanor COM
mitted by him, could escape the penalty at
tached to that misdemeanor.
"Was it," Che Observed "tc be imagined
that Parliament would play fast and loose
with the criminal law in such way, first in
f1icting the penalty of furteen years. trans
portation on certain offenders to acquit them
selves from all punishment Was that pro-
ceeding of the defendants before the Court
of Bankruptcy bona .fde examination, or
any deposition to settle some disputed point
which the court required to be satisfied on ?
There was rule of law we'll known in ref
erence to transactions of this description;
and he would ask the jury whether it was
their opinion that this was real and bona
tide proceeding in bankruptcy, or whether it
was not got-up proceeding and sham-a
farce prepared to be played in open court?"
The jury, having listened to the very able
charge of the presiding baron, retired, and
after an absence of few moments, returned
with verdict of "Guilty," as against all the
defendants. They also stated that they took
the same view of the disclosures in the Court
OF Bankruptcy that the judge had done.

A SAD MIsTAKE.-Two years ago young
Englishman was arrested in Boston for pass
ing counterfeit money, tried, convicted and
sentenced to the State prison. The money
which he passed was five dollar bill on the

person receiving it to the Suffolk Bank for
deposit. The teller of the Suffolk Bank pro-
nounced it counterfeit, and wrote Counter
felt on the face of it. On the trial. the
mark of the teller was called to prove the
bill genuine, and the teller's stamp went for
evidence. About month ago the bill, which
had been kept safely in the District Attor-
ney's Office, by accident, fell into the hands
of the former cashier of the bank, when he
Immediately pronounced it genuine. Where
upon, the Englishman was set at Liberty
after confinement in the State prison for
nearly two Years. The question now is, who
ought to pay the damages, the State or the
