From the East.

As specimen of the many letters we are con
stantly receiving, we give the following. 1t is da
ted New Haven. Conn.
"Dear Sir--Supposing that should make a
visit to your place with $1,000 or $4,000 in my
pocket. about April lst, hop wel could do witt
that amount of money by loaning it ut on rea
estate security in sums of $500, $1,000 or more
for six month Or twelve months? How neal
so per cent. can come per annum9 Please give
me any information you can. Money is very &C.
tive here, and has been during the past winter.
We are having some very decided feelings ex.
pressed in this part of the country, in. reference
to the recent decision of the United States Su.
preme Court at Washington in the Dred Scott
case, and we intend to give the Slavery men Sc.
we're thrashing in April. Little is said, but pub
lie feeling is deep. 1t seems as if Slavery was
about to overrun our country"
Another, now at st. Louis, on his way, to Min
nesota, Says" Ho ! for Kansas! Ho for Ne
braska ! is the cry, and as soon as you get thaw-
ed out, (?) it will be Ho for Minnesota! as ma
ny are already inquiring how they can get to St.
Paul. Everything in the shape of boats come
crowded to st. Louis, and it can now be truly
said that the quiet and gradually increasing tide
of emigration Westward has become q flood"
Other letters inform US that men of capital will
be out in the Spring, to invest, and that a large
number of actual settlers are on their way.

The Memorial.

The Memorial which we publish in our paper
passed by our Legislature nearly two years ago,
soon after the repeal by Congress of the Minns-
sofa Land Bill, in consequence of the alteration
in said bill. We believe that if such Memorial
had been passed by our Legislature at that time,
Congress would have needed our petition for a
new grant, and that now we should be enjoying
the benefit of aRailroad to Lake Superior. Time
demonstrates that often-times our feelings run
away with our better Judgment.

New Buildings.

The coming season promises to surpass all the
others in the number of costly and substantial
buildings which will be added to our city. Exca-
vations are being made on almost every corner
for an edi6ce of some kind, and we are heartily
glad to see these assuming a granite tangibility
which has hitherto been too much ignored. The
lath and scantling of the past are gradually turn
ing into brick and limestone-and the petrefac.
tion is really an improvement.
We judge from the arrangements which are in
progress, that Upper Town claims an increased
share of the steamboating trade of the current
year as Messrs. Culver & Harrington are con-
structing three large and commodious stone ware
houses upon the Upper Levee above the old bridge,
and two costly ones are being built below, one
by Mr.. Fuller and the other by Mr.. Stewart. A
brick building is be built opposite the Empire
block, by Geo. W. Harrington, ESQ.,, and another
similar one across the street, also of brick, by
Oscar King, formerly of the firm of King & Rich.
A. Vance Brown, ESQ.,, is erecting three excel.
lent buildings, of brick or stone, on the now va
cant site of the old Rice House. The foundation
is laid by j. w. Bond for sizable wooden build
ing near the s'Old Brown" and the work is rapid
ly progressing.
We notice also large and magnificent resi-
dence on the bluff in process of erection, by Geo.
Culver, ESQ.,, and to be completed early in the
Summer. A new and capacious carriage factory
is being built back of Fourth Street by Messrs.
Moorhead and Wilkinson, thus adding another
to the wide-awake manufactures of St. Paul.
Our new City Hall is just completed by the
erection of its cupola, and the ground east of it
is broken for the new Jail. This building is to
be ample, and large enough to hold all the scamps
in this section of country. The County Commis.
sioners superintend its erection, and the excava.
tion is going on with vigor that is refreshing,
when We contemplate the insecurity of the old
wafer Jail.
Irvine's block is now nearly completed. This
building presents very imposing appearance. is
built of beautiful limestone, on which our city
stands, and 10 four stories high on St. Anthony,
and six on Eagle street. Numerous other stately
buildings are rising as if by magic in all parts of
the city, arguing well for the activity and busy
success Of the Summer which is before US. Let
MS prepare for it with our eyes open.

Border Ruffianism Triumphant
"BLERDING KANSAS ! !"

ssBLEEDNa ,KANsAs!g'
The Democratic Press have all along professed
to support Governor Geary, just as in the begin
ming they applauded Gov. Reeder, but finally
kicked him out, ostensibly for some schemes of
speculation which they pretended he had been en-
gagged in, but really because he would not cater
to all their slave-driving instincts. Within few
days the Pioneer has expressed its admiration of
Gov. Geary, only because it was ignorant of the
abuse he had received from the Administration.
He has now resigned, and delivered his Farewell
Address. He says that ever since he entered the
Territory, there has been reckless band of fifty
shareholders missouri Democrats) sworn to take
his life if he did not obey their behests. He
says further that Franklin Pierce has repeatedly
violated his promises Of men and means to en-
force the law justly, having ''refused a detach-
ment of two companies of cavalry, for which he
applied under the most urgent circumstances, and
received the naughty answer from the officer in
command, that the army of the United States
was not employed to protect him." He still fur
ther says that the mails have been in the hands
of the Rufans, that his letters have been extract
ed and mutilated or suppressed as might best suit
the exigencies of the occasion that he has been
''thwarted by the Judiciary of the Territory in
cry possible manner" and that, finally, he has
been murderously assaulted by a Pro- Slavery
man in broad daylight, fred upon and grossly
insulted, and fearing assassination, he now re-
signs as the only alternative! His valedictory
is Straightforward and manly, and he closes by
saying, 81 am SO well satisfied with the policy
uniformly pursued, that were it to be done over
again, it should not be changed in the slightest
particular"
What now has the Pioneer to say in vindica-
tion of its save-breeding allies of Platte county
what in defence of Gov. Geary ?-what in praise
of s'the distinguished and successful administra-
tion of Franklin Pierce ?" Or, do circumstances
alter cases9

The New German Cencer, Hall.

The Germans of this city held preliminary
meeting on the 4th inst, to consider the proprie-
ty of erecting building for the purpose of liter
ary and artistic development. Subsequent meet
ings in the German Hall have matured the
project and resolutions have been rassed in favor
of an immediate commencement of the work.
The edi6ce is to be erected on the corner of Ex-
change and Pine streets, and will be two stories
high and built of brick. The ground dimensions
will be 60 feet front on Exchange street, and 40
feet on Pine-the lecture room On first floor will
be 37x2i feet. The second story will be entirely
occupied by . magnificent Concert Hall, 60x4O
feet, and l6 feet high. This will be used for con.
csrts, lectures and the drama, and everything
which partakes of a literary character. We have
been shown plan of tho building, and cannot
but compliments our German fellow.citizens for
the public spirit, sound judgment and good taste
they have displayed in projecting work which
will do them 80 much honor. Its exterior will
present su imposing appearance, and its interior
architectural finish promises to compare favora.

The Dred Scott Case.

The Pioneer joins Mr. Fullerton and Mr.. Taney
pronounced most appropriately Tdwny,) in a
sort Of triangular chuckle over the late victory
of the Slave-drivers, because ssit has simply de-
clared that the principles of the Democratic par
ty are in strict accordance with the Constitution,
and that the Republican party is s'fanatical'' and
revolutionary, an abortion that should be s'sub.
dued." True such is their decision--but the
question recurs, ''what business had these digni-
taries, under the authority of the Supreme Court,
to pass their judgment upon the merits of con.
aicting parties ?" They decided that Dred
Scott was 'snot Citizen" hence could not bring
suit in that court. Here their jurisdiction end
ed. Will the Pioneer explain what right, after
such dismissal of the case, these Eve Slave
holders have to declare that the Missouri Com
promise is unconstitutional; that Dred Scott ID
property; that persons Of African descent have
no rights which white men are bound to respect,
but may be REDUCED to Slavery, and bought
and sold as merchandise!' What right has that
tribunal to approve these, and sundry other
Democratic principles when there was no case
before it Z? The readers of the Pioneer would
be glad, if it would clear this foggy matter up.
Bnt listen, ye knock k-kneed Union-savers- Pic
neer man finally cometh out:
"We may 60 step farther, and declare that
the Democratic party of the Union, stand ready
to sustain and enforce, at all hazards, the recent
adjudication of the Supreme Court, and that
those who resist the enforcement of the law az
laid down by that tribunal, are guilty of treason
to their country and deserve the punishment
awarded to trators.''
Selah! But Mr.. Editor, the laws of this coun-
try consider treason as nothing less than ssevy.
ing war against the United States." If I" those
who will resist the enforcement of the (bogus)
law" that all persons of African descent in the
Union may be reduced,to Slavery (and if the de-
cision does not mean this we would like to know
what it does mean,) if this is treason, thank God
there millions of traitors in this Free West OF
ours, who will tread this Internal decision to
death under their feet! We would affectionately
suggest to the Pioneer man, that he seize few
of our free blacks, and attempt to reduce them
to Slavery," and see what an invincble resistlesl
army of Traitors he will have to hang!
