New Land Decision.

Interspersed over the public domain, says
the Washington Union, are multitudes of
shallow lakes or ponds, many of which in
the early surveys were supposed to be perma-
nent bodies of water, and meandered accor-
DINGHY. But from the changes of climate, and
other natural causes, many of these lakes are
disappearing in whole or in part, and have be-
come dry and arabic land. This being fully
established. the Commissioner of the Gene
raj Land Office has decided that no lands of
this class full under the swamp grant, nor does
any right attach thereto Mnder the riparian
la,c but in all cases Of the kind the lines of
the surveys, under the decision, are extend
ed over the former bodies of such lakes. and
the lands are disposed of as other public do
main. In all cases, however, where settlers.
or other parties interested, are DESTROYS of
securing titles to such lands, application
should be made to the Surveyor General for
the surveys to be executed and the proper re-
turns made thereof to the district and gene
raj land Offices, whereupon the lands will be
liable to -emption, and, after public
proclamation and ordinary entry, to private
sale.

How about SOutllernerse

The Pioneer is very fearful if the State of
Minnesota chooses Republican officers at the
ensuing election. southern gentlemen-men
of wealth, education and refinement who
make Minnesota their temporary homes, and
have invested and expended much money in
the Territory will feel insulted and withdraw
their capital from among US.
This is certainly very strong argument.
but it does not sound well. 1t amounts to
just this if we of Minnesota join the ranks
of our brethren in the North in their resis-
lance to the extension of the blighting curse
of slavery our Southern citizens will leave
us. In the first place, if they did, it would
be no reason for our violation of principle
but it is not so. A large portion of southern
born Minnesotians are men of good sense
they are Republicans. They came here to
keep clear of Slavery, and by their votes will
show themselves true disciples of jefferson
and Clay.

An Explanation vented!

The Pioneer has been furious for the last
week or two for fear that the Republicans
were going to get up Peoples Convention,
and thereby seduce some good Democratic
votes from the support OF the whole Demo-
cratic ticket. This is discourse and the course
of action of the Democratic leaders in RAM
sey county, where they think they have a
large majority but how does the party act
in some Of the southern counties where the
Republicans have majorities Exactly the
opposite.
In Freedom County Hon. E. G. Stacy,
who received the vote of his county in June
last without respect to party, for Delegate to
the Constitutional Convention; but who,
when elected, went with the Democrats in
their extreme disorganizing course-is again
candidate before the people of Freedom
county. He is running for the Office Of State
Senator, nominated-by the Democrats no;
but at a"People's Mass Convention" At
home he is an independent peoples man.

nominated A. P. SwINEFoRD, Of the Albert
Lea Star for Representative. The Star is
professedly an independent paper; but for an
independent one it has the most thorough
Border Ruffian proclivities We ever saw. Its
editor is known here and elsewhere to be o
Democrat of the deepest dye. Mr.. S. was a
Secretary in the late Democratic State nomi-
mating Convention, and we warn the Repub-
lican electors of Freedom and Faribault not
to trust him. In his address he says:
.In principle am decidedly anti Slavery; and will,
If elected vote for for United States Senator,
unless he be pledged against its extension"
But we have no fear that the Republicans
will be gulled by the professions OF men
whose practices are so different. They (the
Republicans have dominated Dr. WATSON for
Senator, and we believe the county will give
him at least 200 majority.
But why does not the Pioneer censure its
party in Freedom for adopting the Peoples
movement ?

The Pioneer Caught in its own Trap.

The Pioneer Caught in its own Trap.
The Pioneer of yesterday under the inAu-
ence of its periodical "Maine Law Mania' as
serts that certain candidate on the Republi-
can State ticket has actually visited grogyer-
les in this city. and spent his money
"for poor whisky to catch votes!" Now
the Pioneer, of course, will acknowledge
that the aforesaid groggeries are Democratic
groggeries, for it charges the Republicans with
being maine Law Party Does the Pho
neer mean to say that it is disgraceful to visit
Democratic groggeries-regular Democratic
Institutions? Isn't that ''libel on Demo-
cratic morality and decency 2" But the Pic
neer says he spent his money for poor whisky
to catch votes!' What votes WHY, Dem-
ocratic votes of course, for Republican votes
need no catching. Does then the Pionee,.
mean to say or insinuate that Democratic
votes can be caught and bought for the dirty
boon of "poor whiskey?" Can ''poor whis-
key" have such strange seductive influence
on the virtuous and immaculate Democracy?
impossible. The Pioneer, by intimating such
thing, grossly libels Democratic morality
and decency." But the Pioneer says the
whisky was really poor. AS the Editor as
sumes to speak from personal knowiedge, and
Is first rate judge of "poor whisky" we
won't question his word an instant. If then
the aforesaid candidate really did visit any of
the haunts of the Editor of the Pioneer
which we can't credit for moment-we have
not the slightest doubt but that he found poor
groggeries and poorer whisky. We don't
think he will ever be likely to repeat his Wis
it. But really, if all the Pioneer asserts and
insinuates about the Republican candidate in
question be true, he would not then be reduced
to the ignominious level of most of the can
didates of the Democratic Party for Judicial
and Congressional honors. It does not ap-
pear that he was ever yet indicted for en-
bezzlement, defaulted the Government or
practlced nameless extortions and frauds on
Pre-emptors in U. S. Land Offices. 1t

While all regret the course that MARSHALL
4 Co. felt compelled to take on Friday last,
the most unbounded and general confidence
exists in the public mind that they are hon
est men, and will ultimately be able tdpay up
to the last dollar. We have not met a man
who does not say that he would rather have
his money to-day in MARsHALL's Bank, did
he. not want it for use, than to have it in his
own pocket in currency. The fact is the
MARsHALL's are known to every body to be
men of strict integrity, and consequently no
panic whatever exists among their creditors.
We are requested to publish the following
card of theirs:
A CARD.-Public acknowledgment is due
from us to Messrs. Mackubin & Egerton, w.
L. Banning & Co., and j. Jay Knox & Co.,

of money, liberal in view of the times, but
which we thought insufficient to carry us
through our embarrassments.

Buchanan's Letter as Understood
South.

We ask our Democratic fellow citizens to
ponder over the following extract from a
prominent Southern Democratic paper fol-
lowing the publication of Buchanan's letter.
Slavery exists in Minnesota under this inter-
probation of the Constitution of the United
States-Popular Sovereignty to the contrary
Notwithstanding. The defense, extension
and propagation of Slavery must become
part and parcel of the Democratic creed--the
African slave trade must be revived--the i'm
portation ofslaves must be encouraged /; and
then Southern Democracy is confident that
slavery will not only take possession of all
our unoccupied territory, but even success
fully invade many of the Free States! Such
are the prospects ahead which the South
sees in Mr.. BUcHANAN's letter. How do the
Freemen of the North relish the promised
entertainment -?
Slavery is not sectional, but national 1t
exists practically in Kansas, and theoretically
in Nebraska, Oregon, Minnesota and New
Mexico. No right thinking man can aues-
ton this fact. In order to destroy its ma
tional existence in Territories, the people
thereof in the settlement of the terms with
their State Constitutions must exclude it by
clause introduced for that purpose. The
right, therefore, claimed by the South exists
in its natiOnality-a right which the North
ern Free-Soil Democracy at this moment
deny and oppose with all their might.
ave have to say that so valuable is
Southern slavery in ITSELF so wholesome and
salutary in an industrial and social point of
view, and so conservative of rational, true
and sound Democracy, we believe its defense,
its propagation and ertensiou should be regarded
as an essential part Of the Democratic creed in
all sections. We spurn the idea that it is
sectional.
"Only the other day journal in Illinois
announced itself in favor of the re establish
ment of slavery in that State. Give us
enough slaves abolish the unjust and une-
quail laws against the African slave trade
put an end to the present unhealthy central
zng tendency of the slaveholdership in the
South, and give every industrious and thrifty
white man chance to become profitably a
stakeholder, and we will not only triumph
antly maintain Slavery where it is, but it will
be seen to flow, like living, refreshing and fer
talizing waters, ilto all the unoccuped terri
tory, and break over the boundaries of MANY
of the present Free States, regardless of the
silly doctrines about climate limits and inter-
national laws. Give us the conditions, and
we vouch for the results."-New Orleans

ton. With some of the blooded animal. en-
tered by exhibitors, and such elegant harness
and cutters, many young Jehu's no doubt
thought what swell they could cut next
winter. We will revert to this department
more fully tomorrow, when the articles are
better arranged.
Fine Arts.-This is the last place visited,
being up stairs in the Council Chamber of the
Capitol, and really makes the most attractive
and prettiest show of any department Mr..
Prince, General Superintendent, and Mr.. j.
w. Bond, Superintendent of this department,
arranged things in it very judiciously, and
the room was crowded all the afternoon.
There are many things worthy of attention
and praise. Principal among these is the
magnificent full length portrait of His Ex-
cellency, Gov Medary, painted by that ex-
cellent artist, L. @. Healy, who has been here
about two weeks. This one piece stamps
Mr.. Healy as an artist of real talent. The
friends of the Gov. will recognise this por-
trait at once, as it is $50 natural it almost
speaks" as we heard visitor say. By its
side hung portraits of R. o. Sweeny, and
General Harms, of Minneapolis, which will be
recognized as excellent portraits.
The qnlt and patch work, and other nee-
dle-work department was full The ladies of
st. Paul seemed to have busily prepared for
the occasion, and the articles exhibited GER
tainly do credit to the busy fingers of the
fair work women.
The variety and beauty of the patterns and
articles will, of course attract the fair sex to
this chamber to-day in crowds. The display
is really fine. We will tomorrow make full
Ter note of these articles, with description of
each, names of makers, &c. This being some-
what out of our line, good judge of those
matters will accompany US.
Mr.. Whitefeld, an artist who resides
among us, has large space devoted to paint
ings, chiefly views in Minnesota, which at
tracted much attention. Some elegant bind
ing from the Pioneer Office, case of furs
from Mosley's, several specimens of wax
work, cases of millinery and fancy dry goods,
by different exhibitors, filled up the tables.
Fuller notice of all these departments, and
the articles exhibited will be given to-mor-
row.
The weather was beautiful and mild during
the whole day, and gives prospect of contin-
uing so until the Fair closes.
The number ofpeople on the ground was
not very great, still quite number of visi-
tors were present. The receipts must have
been pretty good for the first day.
PROGRAMME FOR TO-DAY.
To-day, will be one of the principal attrac-
tions to the Fair, in the shape of the Balloon
ascension, at 10 o'clock A. NJ, from the Fair
Grounds. In the afternoon the trial of hor-
ses will occur at the Hunting Park course,
two miles west of the city. This will be
wholly under the control of the Managers of
State Fair, and will be doubtless largely at
tended by many who have never been on
Race course before. Want of space only
prevented the managers from having it with
in the grounds, as is usual in such cases.
The members Tickets admit the holders to
the course.
