A TOUCHING ScENE.-There occurred at our
place, this week. says the Red Wing Gazette,
one of those scenes which calls forth the SYM
pathetic feeling of gladness or joy from the
hearts of mankind; the circumstances were as
follows: 1t seems that gentleman from the
east, came to Minnesota some six months since,
and made himself claim near Farribault. His
friends came on this fall, and got separated on
the cars between Chicago and Dnnleith 1t so
happened that this gentleman's wife and his
friends family came up on the Lady Franklin,
and the gentlemen on another boat; the gentle
man came on to Hastings expecting to find them
there, but could gain no information Of them;
supposing they had gone to Farribault, they
fastened there; but again could get 10 tidings
OF the loved ones; they hurried back to Has
sinss, Just in season to learn OF the loss Of the
Lady Franklin. Nearly heart-broken with fear
and sorrow, they came to, our town on the first
steamer, arriving her just at day-break, and has
tening to the Red Wing house, whose names
should meet their fearful gaze but those Of
their lost ones. With shout of glalness that
brought the landlord from his bed, and awaken
ing all in the house, they danced about like chill
dren, quite beside themselves with JOY.
To the landlords inquiry of what they
meant?" they replied, "Oh, sir, We are not
drunk, but are so glad" and then came the ex-
PLANTATION. On looking at the register it was
found that their friends and companion had left
the proceeding morning tor Farribauit. So the
happy men fastened alter them. e.. .s...,.

Of Black Republican" There are two things
which go to prove that the Buchanan party is
the negro party, after all. In the fl st place
Buchanan is elected by negroes;-or what is
the same thing, by electoral votes based upon
slaves. The South by the three fiths rule gains
twenty one electoral votes, rs well as the same
number OF members OF congress. These negro
votes were given to Buchanan. Then again,

The interference OF Fillmore in the canvass pre-
vented a concentration of the forces in this state
opposed TO Douglas and Border Rufliansm upon
one Presidential candidate. The result is that
Buchanan has plurality. But, notwithstan
ding this, the people have spoken in unnistaka-
bic language in condemnation Of the recreant
Douglas, and in thunder tones, by the elect on
