Truth is Mighty, and Must Prevail.
Report Of the Committee dppointed to superin.
tend the Burning Of the Iron Safes, at Read
ing, february u, 1857.
RsADISs, March 4.
The undersigned members of the committee,
do respectfully report, that we saw the two Safes
originally agreed upon Ivy Farrels & Herring and
Evans & Watson, placed side by side in fur
hace, viz: The Safe muse by the Paymaser of
the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Compa-
ny, in his Office at Reading, manufactured by
Fsrrels & Herring, and the Safe in use by II.
A. Lsntz, in his store, manufactured by Evans
Il Watson, and put in books and papers precisely
alike.
1he..Grc was started at 81 o'clock, A. NJ. and
kept up until four cords Of green hickory, two
cords dry oak and half chesnut top wood were
entirely consumed, the whole under the surerin-
tendence OF the subscribers, members Of the Com
mittee. The Safes were then cooled OF with
water, after which they were opened, and the
books and papers taken out by the Committee
and sent to II. a. lanz's store for public exam
ined and marked by the Committee. The books
and papers taken from :he Safe manufactured
ov Farrels 4 Herring were in judgment
damaged fully fifteen per cent. more than those
taken from Evans & Watson's Safe.
We believe the above to have been fair and
impartial trial the respective qualities of both
Safes.

Whatever may be said favorably of Cas-.
as Premier, and Cobb as head of the Trea
sury, we think the people of the West and
North, of all parties, will acknowledge them
selves badly sold I" on the Secretary OF
the Interior and the Postmaster-General
Two Southern Fire-eaters-second or third
rate men at that-narrow- minded haters oil
the Free West and its progress-placed in
the only two ministerial chairs with which
our people ever have any important business
connections. Indiana has been thrown over
board. All true Western men had hoped
that Jesse D. Bright would have gone into
the Interior /; but no! The Niger +"
power of Mississippi resurrccts one of its
old, broken down political hacks; and the
useful and vigorous progressive mind Of
Bright must be lost to the country in the
new administration.
On the score of political iniquity, Mr.. ia
cob Thompson and Mr.. Bright occupy the
same position in our judgment of political
sinners but that is not the question now.
Bright is a superior man for the place a
man who practically knows the great inte-
rests of the landed States and the Terrific
ries, and the proper manner in which to d.
rect and control the affairs of the Indian
tribes. A knowledge of these matters is
absolutely necessary to proper administra-
ton Of the affairs of the Department of the
Interior. Thompson is an inferior man,
without administrative abilities of any kind,
and besides deeply hostile to the interests
and progress of our region of country.

matter

We learn from W. W. Folsom, Esq, who
has just returned from Chicago by way Of
Milwaukee and La Crosse, that on Saturday
last an extremely d :structive fire occurred in
the business part of the latter city. 1t broke
out about ten o'clock in the morning in the
New England Hotel, which was situated on
the east side of the second street from the
river-the principal business street of the
town. Before the flames could be checked,
fourteen buildings were consumed, including
some Of the heaviest mercantile houses in
the place.
By great exertions on the part of citizens
the flames were prevented from crossing the
street. Our informant left soon after the
fire was subdued, and did not learn the
amount of the loss or the extent of the in
surance.

ANOTHER MURDER-LYNCH LAW AND
HANGING IN THE VICINITY OF WABAsHAw.
On Sunday last, an alteration occurred
between some wood-choppers and party of
Sioux Indians near Nelson's landing, point
on the Mississippi in Wisconsin, opposite
Wabashaw. One of the Indians was drunk,
and wished to cross the river to Reeds
Landing in company with the white men,
MANY of our readers are perhaps not aware
that the river never closes by freezing at that
point.) The Indian was refused passage
and after the boat left the shore, he raised
his gun and shot dead one of the white men
who was rowing.
The offender was instantly captured; ia
ken across to Reeds Landing; tried by q
Lynch Court and Jury, and condemned to
be banged forthwith. He was conveyed
across the rivers into Wisconsin and on the
same afternoon, near the scene of his MORN
ing's crime, was made to suffer the death
penalty of hanging in expiation.
We learn these facts from the same gen.
tleman who brings the news of the La Crosse
fire. He arrived at Wabashaw ON Sunday
evening shortly after the conclusion of the
tragedy.
These scenes of violence are becoming
quite too common in Minnesota. She is fast
losing that high reputation for love of Law
and order which has ever been her just pride
and it were we'll if a check was speedily put
to any further violence of this character
We hope for better state of things.

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR,
Office Indian Affairs, Feb. 9Th.


Notice is hereby given to all persons in
tcrested, that the Scrip authorized to be is
sued under the Act of July II, 1854, to the
Sioux Hall Breeds, or Mixed Bloods, for
their interest in the Lake Pepin Reserve,
will be ready for delivery to parties entitled
thereto, at the town of Wabashaw, in the
Territory of Minnesota, on the Odd day of
March, 1857.
The Hon. James Shields, the Commission
er to whom has been confided the delivery
of the Scrip, and the taking of the relin-
punishment required by the law, will be at
Wabashaw on the day named, and remain
there as long as in his judgment may be ne
cess .ry for all the HalfBreeds or Mixed
Bloods within the Territory of Minnesota,
and those in the region of Prairie du Chen
and other points, to be ard appear at Waba-
shaw, to execute the REIMBURSEMENT and re-
ceive their Scrip. The interests of the
HALF Breeds or Mixed Bloods will be promo
ted very much by a prompt attention to this
notice, and speedy call for their Scrip.
In every Instance where it is practicable,
the REIMBURSEMENT must be executed, the
Script received and receipted for by the
Mixed Blood to whom it belongs.
In cases of minors, the Iather, or if he be
dead, the mother may execute the relinqush-
ment and receive the Scrip. If both be
dead, the legal guardian may act
In cases where actual disability, or by
reason of great distance, Mixed Blood
may not be able to attend in person to relin-
quish and receive his or her Scrip, of which
the Commissioner will judge, any Mixed
Blood, or white man, the husband of Mix
ed Blood, may act as the attorney, being
thereto duly authorized, according to form
to be determined by the Commissioner afore-
said to simply enable the attorney to reln-
quish and receive the Scrip, sign a rcccip,
therefor. and locate the same in the name OF
the party to whom the same is issued. No
other form of power of attorney than such
as the said Commissioner prescribes will be
recognized.
The Scrip is declared by the law authori-
zing the issue of the same, not to be assign.
able or transferable, and hence all bargains
and contracts and powers of attorney in re-
lation to it are simply void, and will receive
no attention whatever, and the constant eff
forts of the Department will be exer, ised to
insure to the HalfB Breeds the full benefit oil
the law, and the use and enjoyment of the
land upon which the Scrip is located.

AN ALLEGED DISCOVERY OF GREAT I'M

AN ALLEGED DISCOVERY OF GREAT I'M
poRTANcE.-Dr. BENZ. Hardinge, of New
York city, occupies several columns of the
n. Y. Tribune of the 18th ult., with an &C
count of his alleged discovery for the lique-
faction of quartz rock; the extraction Of the
last particle of gold or other precious metal
which that rock may contain; and for the
holding of that hitherto solid rock in the
form Of liquid, in casks and hogsheads rea-
dy to be turned back into rock again as it is
needed, thus affording new material for
building, cheaper than brick and beautiful
as precious stones. The article is published
as an advertisement, but its accuracy is
vouched for By the certificates of several
Observation-Disclosures, bankers, merchants,
&c. If the statements of DR.. Hardinge are
true, his discovery will not only greatly in
crease the annual gold production, but it
will create revolution in the matter oil
building material.

Monument to General Harrison.

The Pioneer Association of Cincinnati
have appointed committee to report plan
for Pioneer Monument, including, as a
primary object, one to General Harrison.
The Gazette proposed that it be located at
the intersection of Third and Lesellow
streets, where the flagstaff of old Fort
Washington stood, and adds:
General Harrison was an officer in Fort
Washington, and under Wayne took his first
military lessons. No spot is better for a
monument to him, who on that spot would
appear at once in the character of pioneer,
officer, the general, statesman and Presi-
dent. On that spot all the elements of his
life would be united, and acquire lasting
significance.

PROPOSED BRIDGE ACROSS THE Ono AT
LoUIsvILLE.-The Louisville Journal strong
ly urges the Importance of railroad bridge
across the Ohio at that point. 1t is neces-
sary in order to remove the present embargo
upon travel and trade. With it Louisville
may become I" the great rail road center Of
the West, and her progress would then
equal that of any of the cities which have
received almost fabulous impulses from their
railroad facilities" A charter is already in
existence, and it is estimated that the bridge
can be constructed for 100000.
