The Canvass for Territorial Delegate.


The Pioneer publishes yesterday what it
calls the "oficial canvass for Delegate to Con-
gress." In one article, the public are given to
understand that it is the result of the labors
"of the Board of Canvassers authorized by
law to canvass the vote for Delegate; and
then in another article, it tells US that
wednesday, the I'd day of December, being the last
aay ny Territorial Law, in which the vote for Delegate
10 Congress- could be canvassed in fufment of that
DUTY the Secretary of the Territory c. L. CHASE Esq.,
proceeded to examine the returns in his Office and
found the following to be the official result:''
hngspury, Dem. .............. .,. 151SS
Mcclure, Rep............,.. 10 900
majority Tor kingsbury. ................. 2,1s9
liz the canvass by Mr.. CHASE, the counties
OF Cottonwood, Martin, Renville, Rock and
Murray, are included, though known to be
fraudulent and forged; while the following
majorities in genuine counties are omitted :
The weekly Minnesotian. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. Territory) 1852-1858, 1857-12-05

Even this reduced majority, would be
still further decreased on investigation, and
by casting out the Indian votes. Had the
Republicans pursued the policy in Ramsey
county, of voting for the Delegate on the
State Ticket as the Democrats did, the ma
jority for K'ngsbury would have been incom-
parably less and was the office of sufficient
account to justify it, contest might result in
throwing out the votes thus unfairly and lille
gauy polled for the precocious young man
from the Lake Shore.

Total Maiorities not counted

Deduct from Kingsbury's aggregate, the
bogus majorilies in Cottonwood, Martin, Rem
vile, Rock and Murray, amounting to POI,
and the case would stand nearly thus, saying
nothing at present about the illegal Indian
votes cast, nor of the precincts omitted in the
regular counties included in the canvass

Democracy Of Minnesota Perhaps, Mr..
Pioneer-pe,haps! Its best not to speak too
quick on such important matters. JAMES
BUCHANAN has fen office-holders here in
Minnesota. What with their salaries and
what with the government money in their
hands for expenditure, they WELD the direct
power contained in half million of dollars
Let President BUCHANAN adhere to the South
in this matter, and you'll soon discover which
side they are on, and what principles, howev-
err subservient and degrading, their influence
and the peoples money will sustain. With
them on one side, and the Pioneer and its
friends on the other, the democracy of Min
nesota" would make but poor show.
Not is to the Republican element, and
not to the emasculated Democracy, that the
country must look for the energetic support
of the principles Of Democratic Republican
ism and the rights Of humanity, in this new
Kansas issue. When the battle on this afro
csous Constitution comes before Congress, it
is only through the Republican members

Ths Landlord and the Palnter.

A LYONS paper says: A few years since, an
eminent artist at Lyons, while passing through
the Rue des Tcrreaux approached a number OF
persons who were gathered together witnessing
the sale OF the furniture of a poor woman. A
woman was seated on the pavement, with q
child in her arms The pairter spoke to her,
and was told that the furniture which was be-
ing sold belonged to her; that her husband had
lately died, leaving her with the child she held
in her arms; that she had struggled hard TO
maintain herself by working day and night and
submitting to every privation, but that her land
4 lord had atisRgth seized her furniture for some
months rent which was due to him. The ar
tst was much affected by this simple recital,
d and inquired who was her landlord. 'There be
is,u replied the poor woman. pointing to man
who was watching the progress OF the sale and
he was recognized by the painter as person
who was suspected of having amassed consid-
cradle fortune by usury, 80 that to make any
appeal to his feelnas on behalf OF the poor
widow would be useless The artist was con-
sidering within himself what other plan he
could adopt to benefit her, when the crler an
nounced picture for sale. IL was miserable
danb, which. In the summer, the woman had
used to hide the hole in the wall through which
the pine of the stove passed during the winter.
1t was put up at one franc
The artist at once conceived plan for taking
revenge on the landlord. He went over, exam
ined the picture with great attention. and then
called out with loud voice. "One bundred
francs.' The landlord was astounded at the
bid. but concsving that picture for which so
eminent an artist could offer that sum was worth
more than double, boldly offered 2OOf. "Flv'
hundredln said the painter; and the contest be-
tween the two bidders became go animated tha
the prize was at length knocked down TO The
landlord at $2,200fl The purchaser, then ad
dressing the painter, said: In seeing an artist
of your merit bid 80 eagerly for the picture.
supposed that IL must be valuable. Now tell
me. sir. at wi do you estimate its value =
'.About three francs and half,' replied the
painter, "but would not give that for it.''
;'You are surely jestfng,' said the landlord
ssfor you hid as high as 2,l00f. for IT. Thai
is true "repled the artist, "and will tell you
why did 80. You, who are in possession Of al
income of 2500Of q year, have seized on The
furniture of poor woman for debt Of 2OOi
wished to give you lesson. and you fell into
my trap. Instead Of the poor woman being
your debtor she is now your creditor. and Hat
ter myself you will not compel her to seize OF
your furniture for her debt" The artist thel
politely saluted the astonished landlord, ant
having announced her good fortune to the poo
woman, walked away. Tho artist painted
picture of the scene, which has recently attract
rd considerable attention. tJ@ y
