of others at Mapkato and ST. Peters, in
Minnesota. But from the following ii
seems, fortunately, that Gen. Dom, and
a few others, who would undoubtedly
prefer the occupation of shooting and
scalping red skins 10 the opening Of farms
or the building up of towns, are likely to
be, for a time yet, without a plausible
excuse for engaging in that interesting
business. The Minnesottan says:
1--WE had the pleasure of meeting in ST Paul
on Saturday. Hon. s. A. ID. Balcornbe, of Winoma
directly from the q Seat of War lie has been
passing some two weeks in Blue Earth Valley
and was up there when the war panic broke out
He authorizes us to state, that Tot a drop OF
white blood has been shed upon the waters of the
Blue Earth-the Wantonwon, or any other of Its
branches. ~s~~a
No hostile Indians have been nearer to Man
kato than Spirit Lake and its immediate neigh
borhood, away down on the Iowa line. The
whole thing is a humbug from Beginning to end.
The panic seized some of the settlers on the
Wantonwan by hearing of the Iowa outrag, 5,
and when the peaceable annuity Indians came
down to commence making sugar, some of the
settlers packed up and fled. Seeing fires on the
prairvs west and south of them at night, they
concluded it was the burning Of cabins. On
arriving at Mankato and St. Peters, they had sue
ceeded in drawing facts of this character from
their vivid iinaginations. t9a ae #a
b. II. Randall Esq, from Fort Ridgely was
also in the city on Saturday, and confirms fully
what we have stated above He says all the In
dams were fleeing from the sugar bush 10 the
Fort for protection, scared neariy out OF their
skins. ~ stN ~. laar.s,r

The Inaugural Address of Mayor Wi
mer, delivered yesterday, and the reply
made by Geo R. Taylor, President of the
Board of Aldermen, are the theme of
earnestessays in the Jealous party papers,
and the subject of much exciting discus
sion in political circles. That Mayor
Winner, an ayowed Emancipationist,
should deliver panegyric, on, +" free
labor" the dignity of white labor" the
r. toiling masses who uphold the frame
work OF society,"" DC, &c, is nothing
more than was TO be expected; but thai
! the President of the Board of Alderman,
George r. Taylor, a Virginian by birth,
| in manner and habits, and the toughest
tkiaa of ~ National Democrat Should
deliberately, in cold blood, and with
malice prepense, echo the hyperborean
utterances of the Mayor, is most sur
prising circumstance.
i Mr.. Taylor is Southern gentleman,
an eminent citizen, and man of wealth,
facts which. 1T was supposed, clinched
him to Anti Benton forever. Judge OF
the establishment and anguish of his old
| friends, then, at seeing him give hearty
respone to the sentiments of the Mayor,
and declare that Kansas will be a free
state, that Missouri is bound to follow,
as her. climate and economy are not
adapted to slave labor. .t.
/ The Republican is grieved at Mr.. Tay-
Ior's conduct, the Leader is enraged al
this evidence ofthe Generalization of one
of the best members of It's party, while
the Democrat is ecstaLic at the conversion
| of lch a man as, the President of the
Board of Aldermen, to the cause of "free
labor"
|. What next? Anything. Surely the
word g impossibility'' ought to be erased
from the vocabulary of politics, when the
Missori Republican becomes the conf
dental organ Of Col. Benton, to defend
him against the designs Of the Missouri
Democrat, and when the novel spectacle
is presented in this city of all the promi-
nent National Democrats turning Free.

IMPORTANT to Miners, Trdrelers. d,

There is no malady of deeper Importance,
either in a medical or moral point of view, to
which the human family is more liable, than
that arising from impure connections.
AS medical man, it is the duty of every
physician to look at disease as it affects health
and life, and his sole object should be to mit-
gate as far as lies in his power, the bodily suf-
fering. Human nature at best is but frail all
are liable to misfortune.
OF all the ills that affect man, none arc more
terrible than those of private nature. Dread
full as it is in the person who contracts it,
frightful as are its ravages upon his constitu-
ton, ending frequently in destruction and
loathsome grave, it becomes of still greater i'm
portancc when it is transmitted to innocent off
spring. Such being the case how necessary it
becomes that every one having the least reason
to fear that they have contracted the disease.
should attend to it at once, by consulting some
physician, whose responsibility and education
enables him to warrant safe speedy and per-
manent cure. In accordance with this necessi-
ty. DIR. YOUNG feels called upon to state
that by long study and extensive practice, he
has become perfect master of all those diseases
which come under the denomination of venercal.
and having paid more attention to that branch
than any other physician in the United States.
he feels himself better qualified to treat them
! Syphilis In all its forms, such as Swelling of
the Groins, Ulcers, Ulcers in the Throat Sec
ondary Syphilis, Cutaneous Eruptions, Uicera-
tions, Tertiary Syphilis, Syphilis in Children.
Mercurial Syphilitc Affections, Gonorrhra,
Gleet, Structures, False Passages, Inflammation
OF the Bladder and PROSTATE Glands, Excoria-
tions, Tumors, Pustules, etc, are as familiar to
him as the most common things of daily obser-
vation.
The Doctor effects cure in recent cases in
few days, and finds no difficulty in curing those
OF long duration, without submitting the pa
tient to such treatment as will draw upon him
the slightest suspicion, oblge him to neglect
his business, whether within doors or without.
The diet need not be changed, except in cases
OF severe inflammation. There are in California.
