ONE CONVICTED AT LAsT.-The fnan-
cial history of the country is filed with
instances of rascality perpetrated by bo-
gus bankers and rotten banks, but rarely
do we hear that the laws have ever
punished such swindling, Last week an
Arkansas jury reversed the usual rule,
and convicted the chief operator of the
Little Rock Manufacturing Company,
which assumed banking powers and is
sued notes for circulation, and which
failed few months ago, swindling stock
holders and Others of large amount. =
They did this under the common law,
for, unfortunately, they found that there
was no statutory provisions in that State
to meet such cases. The Judge, under
the same law, sentenced the party to
four years imprisonment, giving him
time to pursue his Investigations into the
benefits of the unlimited credit system.

What cannot be done in the name Of De-
mocracy? Samuel Medary, Governor of the
Territory of Minnesota, has sent in his mes
sage to the Legislature of the State of Min
nesota-a body with which he has no more
right to communicate than has James Blu
chanan-and the Democratic members, like
set Of laundering asses or willing accom-
plices in usurpation and wrong-doing, even
invited him to do so, and then insulted the
people of the State by ordering one thou
sand copies of the document printed at the
expense of the future State.
The Douglas Democrats may prate aud
howl about the newly discovered wrongs of
Kansas but we tell them there are just as
INSCRIPTIONS, defiant, daredevil politicians in
our Capitol at st. Paul, as border ruffianisrn
in Kansas can produce. But there is day
of political judgment coming, when the vir-
tuous people will say to these men-"depart
from me, ye accursed villains p
As matter of history and arrant usurpa-
ton for after reference, we will publish this
message hereafter-our columns being too
much pre- occupied to-day.
Previous to the delivery of the Message, the
Republican Senators entered a manly protest
upon the Journal against this high handed
usurpation. They refuse to recognize Gov
Medary as Governor of the State of Mime
sofa. Let them maintain their position like
men, as we know most of them are. Media
ry is an interloper-a usurper, who has no
business whatever in intruding his particu-
lar notions upon that body. As Sam. Me-
Diary, or as Gov. Medary, Governor of the
Torritoru xpa would froot hin, with oil M
spect-but when he commences putting On
the airs and fourishes of Governor of the.

meddler and interloper -Sitlwater Messenger.

Bad for WinOna Comfy.

Winona County is unfortunate in some of
her representatives, at the present session Of
the Legislature.
In the Senate, she has SAM BEEMAN to
disgrace her and in the House, Mr.. BEARcE
seems ambitious of following the ignoble
lead of the man who sold his certificate of
election for twenty-five cents
On the same day, the 18th, that BEEMAN
repudiated Republicanism and the issue of
freedom for Kansas on the floor of the Sem
ate, and voted to indefinitely postpone reso-
lutions embodying Republican doctrines, Mr..
BEARCE, in the House, bore off the question
able honor of himself making the motion to
indefinitely postpone them, to the huge de-
light of the Democracy who all unanimously
voted with Mr.. BEARcE for the motion which
got them out of "fx" and put the Repub
lican party into one.
Mr.. BEARcE is a young man, we hear; and
processes to be Republican, as we also hear.
His indiscreet moves sufficiently show his
youth; but touching his Republicanism, we
shall believe more in it when we witness .c-
tons that better correspond with bis profess
sions.

A Suggestion, fer which we make no
Charge.

We would suggest to the Clerk of the
House of Representatives, that heretofore in
most Legislative bodies the duty of announc-
ing the vote upon questions where the yeas
and nays are called, has usually been con-
coded to the presiding officer. At the or
ganization of the House, we observed that
the Clerk took it upon himself to announce
the vote for Speaker, as we'll as for himself
and all other officers elected. It struck us
that his unassuming and retiring modesty
will never cause his death. The Clerk ap-
pears like young man, however, and with a
little more age aud experience in public az
fairs be may improve in this PARTICULAR
&iN0ater Messenger.
AS the Messenger has appropriately
pointed out to the Clerk of the House where
he may amend, it occurs to us to give hint
to the Secretary of the Senate, that it is GUS
tomary to extend to reporters for newspapers
all facilities for copying resolutions, and doc
uments of every kind, offered in the body;
and that it don't look we'll to give the re-
porter Of the Pioneer opportunities of com.
pleting his reports in this respect, which he
denies, or grants grudgingly and with diff
Guilty, to the reporter of the .Ninnesotian.-
Partnership has its limits, and so has our
forbearance.

EXTENSION OF TIME FOR COLLECTION OF
TAXES.
On motion of Mr.. PIERCE, the House
resolved itself into Committee Of the whole
Mr. PIERCE in the Chair for the Considera-
ton Of bill for the extension of the time Tor
the collection of Taxes in Scott County.
Mr.. STEVENS proposed substitute for
the bill extending the time for the collection
of Taxes till the LIST of June next, through
out the State.
Mr.. BALCOMBE doubted the propriety
of general act of this kind at the present
time. The substitute was loSt-yeaS ~,
noes 33.
Mr.. DOW did not see why we should sin
gle out a few counties and extend the time
for the collection of taxes-he thought it was
unconstitutional There might be a general
wish in certain counties to extend the time,
and there might be good reason for it, but
he did not see the authority for it.
Mr.. BRADLEY said it was thing that
had frequently been done in every State and
Territory in the Union. The object in this
case was to relieve the Sheriff of the neces-
sity OF selling the personal property Of de-
linquent taxpayers, thing that will cause
great distress.
Mr. OTIS thought it would be unjust to
extend the time IN certain counties, and not
extend it in others.
Mr.. LORD was opposed to the system
He thought the people of his own (Olmsted)
county could pay their taxes.
Mr. TEFFT said the people of Wabashaw
were not bankrupt They were able to pay
their taxes.
Mr. T. A. THOMPSON disagreed with
his coleage. The people in his part of the
county were anxious for the passage of the
act of this act.
The billwas then amended so as to include
the counties of Rice, Fillmore, Blue Earth,
LeSueur, Brown, Wabashaw, Olmsted,
Meeker, Anoka. Mcleod and others, when
the committee rose and referred it to the
Committee on Towns and Counties.
SENATOR BILL-TIGHT PAPERS.
The bill providing for the election of U. S.
Senators was then read third time, and the
question recurring on its passage, there were
ayes 81, noes 81.
There not being constitutional majority
in its favor, the bill was lost.
Mr.. RUTAN moved to make the bill the
special order for the afternoon. Not in or

Mr.. DOW moved q reconsideration of the
vote ON the passage of the Senator bill. Car
ried.
! A call of the House was then made and
