SERIOUS Messrs. Swanson
and l. NJ, coming from Saltwater after dark
on Tuesday evening, turned their team into
the old road leading across-lots from Sixth
to Fifth street, at point near the intersec-
ton of Sibley with the former street. Get
ting into Fifth they attempted to intercept
Jackson by coming down the hill in front
of the Baptist church, where there is deep
cut oc asioned by the new grade of Jackson
and Fifth. The horses plunged over the
precipitous bluff, upsetting and breaking the
carriage, and seriously endangering the lives
of its inmates, although they escaped from
the wreck without material injury. The
horses ran at full speed down jackson street
and along St. Charles, and over the bluff in
t. the Mississippi near the corner of that
street and Bench. Both were killed. The
team belonged to Capt. Burkey, and was a
very valuable one. Why are not these dam
gerous places baricaded of nights? ,i OH

The arrivals yesterday We're the Ben Cour-
son, Arcola, and Gipssy.
The Lady Franklin is the Galena packet
due to-day. Speaking of the Lady Franklin,
we feel it our duty to remark. that the stric-
lures made last week by us upon the present
captain of this boat, Kennedy Lodwick, ESQ.,,
were induced by published reports in other
st. Paul papers, touching his conduct as
captain of the Galena. His friends and him
self deny to us, in the most positive terms,
the truth of any one of these allegations.
vi course, personally, we know nothing
about the matter; but we presume that if
Capt. l.. were guilty of all or even portion
OF the charges brought against him, the
Packet Company would not insult the public
by again placing him in command of one of
their boats. Fauft-finding is not an uncom-
mon thing with travellers under trying cir
cumstances, and any captain is liable at any
moment to suffer t erefrom.
The Excelsior arrived last evening. and will
go down this morning

RICE CoUNrY.-The Republicans of Rice
have been in convention, and nominated as
true Republican as lives, MORGAN L. Nc
BILE, for the House. The right kind of reso-
utlons were passed, and General Enthusiasm
was thoroughly triumphant in the banner
county of Minnesota. The vote on the l4th
OF October will be apt to stand thus; Noble
600; Gen. Shields candidate, perhaps 20.
The county ticket has the following true
names upon it: County Treasurer, George
Is. button; County Commissioners, Franklin
Kelly for tie full term, and Levi Nutting to
nil the unexplred term occasioned by resig-
nation of Mr.. Petit. Assessors, Allison
Hawk, Forest Precinct; Edward Cults, Fari-
bault Precinct; j. N. Safe, East Prairie Pr,
cinct.

LEyEE RIoT.-Our city was disgraced, on
Sunday afternoon, by bloody fight between
some Of the officers and a portion of the
crews OF the steamers Golden Era and Con-
ewago. Capt. Ward, of the latter boat, and
one of the mates Of the Golden Era, were
badly hurt. To stop recurrence of these
scenes, it is necessary that the city should
have something positive in the way Of regu-
lations respecting the landing of steamboats,,
and have an officer ON hand constantly to
regulate all such matters le9ii'l9g - OBJ
