HASsoS.-We would be very much OBJ
liged to some of the Rice papers if they
would publish the official returns which elect
Mr.. Hanson to the Couhcil. They are a seal
ed book to us, and we presume it is tie policy
of Hanson and his friends to have them re-
main so. t.. ..-r...-. ..
"DEMocRArs."- Winona Argus says
that all men who voted the Rice and String
fellow ticket at the late election, may be re-
garded as "pure Democrats" We told
certain " old line Wings" that they would
be so classified after the election, but
they doubted-and vqtsd against us. How
do they now felix ~ -
THE HoUsE.-The last Brownsville Herald
has the following paragraph in regard to W.
F. Dunbar, member elect to the House from
Houston County. Mr.. D. was aforetime
quite favorite in st. Paul, having driven
into these "diggins the first regular Yankee
Pcdlars wagon that ever visited the Terri
tory. If he has any "more left of the same
sort " of cigars which he brought up in
1853, he will please report himself at the
Minnesotian Office, as of yore, when he
comes to the Legislature. The Herald says;
"Mr. W. F. Dunbar is gentleman highly
popular with our citizens generally. He was
elected by his friends irrespective of party
| ties, and will doubtless represent his consti-
tuents we'll and faithfully" ~"
The Scorr COUNTY DELEGArtoN.-Some
of the -Stringfellow prints persist in
setting down Judge Dooley and Mr.. Gal
braith, Republican members elect to the
Legislature from Scott County, as belonging
to their party. 1t must be desperate game
they wish to carry out in the Legislature
when such means as these are resorted to to
make up their majority"
T A letter from Norfolk says: "Every
family, believe, without exception, has beer
called upon to mourn some dear departed
ones. Many whole families have been swept
off at single blow. Sixty orphans have
been collected in one House of Refuge, with
none to claim them, besides those who have
been provided for in families in this city, ir
Richmond, and in other places"
