being at one time notorious Aboltionists,
and at another of being vilainous pro-slavc-

MIR. Douglas and the City Council.

To the Editors Of the Minmesotian
In my communication of yesterday, I
merely took time to detail the facts connect
ed with the extraordinary action of the ma
jority Of the Council in regard to giving
Judge DOUGLAS public dinner, &C., at the
city's expense. I now wish to have it I'M
derstood, that what have said upon this
subject has been without any disrespect to-
wards Mr.. DOUGLAS. There is no man who
would do more, according to his ability, to
make that gentleman's stay with Us agreea-
bic, than would. / respect him as man
and am willing to render to him all honor due
for the services rendered this Territory, and
do lot believe he would accept of the hos
FATALITIES of the city as set forth in the resolu-
tons, gotten up in caucus composed only
of four or five of the petty politicians of the
city Of St. Paul.
But believe that he might have accepted
of an entertainment to him rendered by the
citizens of st. Paul irrespective of party
without any action of the Council or of the
low trickery which was practiced on Satur-
day, to procure the passage of those resolu-
tons. The intention of the majority was to
deceive the people, and make it appear that
it was a move made irrespective of party;
but MIR. EMERSON admitted to me after the
passage of the resolutions, that it was party
move, and that he was sorry for it, but he
would bear the responsibility.
This territory is about to become State,
and it is necessary for the Democratic party
to make grand demonstration so as to insure
it to come in as a Democratic State. Mr..
DOUGLAS is here upon political tour, to aid
them if possible; and suppose the expense
oft appeared little too heavy for the party to
bear, so they took this method to relieve them
selves of that burthen consequently those
resolutions were passed to defray the expen
ses of Mr.. DOUGLAS during the entire canvass
this fall, out of the city treasury. The reso-
lutions do not read during his sojourn in the
city, but it is "during his stay in the Terrific

recollect when Kossuth was making his
tour through the United States he arrived at
the city of Cincinnati, and the council of that
city met and passed resolutions similar to
those passed by our own council ard bills to
the amount of over thirty thousand dollars
were made out by different persons for artic-

The Fall Elections.

The Pioneer attempts to make much ado
about the Republican Central Committee
calling a Territorial Convention for the NOM
nation of Delegate to Congress, or to make
snch other nominations as may be called for
at the time of the assemblage of that body.
Our committee, let our opponents understand,
takes this ground: If the factious opposi-
ton of the Democrats to State organiza
ton immediately be such as to prevent the
consummation of that desired end, as a mat
ter of course the people must have dele
gate elected to Congress-; and the Republi-
cans intend to nominate candidate for that
office and use all honorable means to elect
him. But if, on the ether hand, it appears,
when our nominating convention meets, that
matters have taken shape which will obvi
ate the necessity of electing Delegate, then
the convention, under the call, will exhaust
its power by making nominations for State
officers.
We hope this is sufficiently plain and ex-
picit to satisfy the "Peeping Toms" of the
Pioneer, who have manifested so great an
anxiety to find out the leading motives of
their Republican neighbors in calling this
Convention. .n

Crops OH the wabash.

The Wabash valley will this year yield the
richest harvest ever grown upon its BOSOM
Its inexhaustble soil has given the most
bountiful evidence of its fertility. The editor
of the Terre Haute Express has been in the
country, and returns astonished at the CRATE
full sights every where presented to his view,
He says:
every where the farm yards are filled with
large stacks, and the barns literally groan un-
der the support of the heavy. loads stored
away in their mows. The grass crop is SPLEEN
did, and the weather is propitious for gather
ing it in. But the corn-who ever saw such
corn ? Fort Harrison Prairie, unrivaled in
the production of this staple, never bore upon
her swelling bosom so fattering a prospect.
We heard one farmer say he would gather
from seventy-fve to eighty bushels per acre.
The stalks look almost like young trees. The
ground is forever shaded by the large flag
ging leaves, and the whole fields presents
living mass of luxuriant green

AS all sensible men supposed he would,
Judge DOUGLAS declines the honors extended
to him by the corporate authorities of st.
Paul. The blind party zeal of EMERSON,
McGRoRTY, BRIsB1N & Co., forced the Re-
publican members of the Council, and Re-
publcans outside OF the Council-we among
others-into position which may to some
extent have seemed inhospitable in the opin-
ion of uniformed people. But we feel GER
tain that had his political friends who man.
aged this matter behaved themselves with
courtesy and decency toward their opponents,
nothing unpleasant would have transpired-
The best friends Judge D. has in St. Paul,
can bear witness that he has always received
full credit in our columns for whatever dis
tineuished services he has rendered the Ter
ritory from lime to time. But as to swallow
ing his poltics-that's quite another thing.

The CHINESE SUGAR CANE IN Texas
The Galveston Cioilian remarks that DR..
Royal, of that paper, during his recent tour
in Western Texas, had good opportunities
for observing the result of the experiments
now making in the cultivation of the Chi

He says, from the recent experiments
made in the sugar region of this State. it is
evident that it will never supercede the ordi-
nary cane for the manufacturing of sugar,
but, in the more northern portions of the
country, where cane will not grow, sugar

From the WiunebagO Agency.

CHA's. r. MIX, Esq, direct from the Win
nebago Agency, informs us that there is no
truth in the report that war party of the
Wnnebagos had joined the Sioux to COM
mence war upon the whites. The rumor
grew out of the fact that Winnebago was
lost; and his friends supposing he had either
been captured or killed by the Sioux, started
in pursuit Of him to the Sioux Agency. He
came ''into camp" while the party was alb
sent, and all was made right between the two
tribes.

To the Editors ofMe Minnesotian:

To the Editors 0fthe Minnesotidn:
In the reports of the proceedings of the
Convention, published in your paper of this
morning, on Mr.. Davis Resolution on the
Boundary question, I am reported as having
said, that I would vote again for this propo-
sition, without special regard to any express
sion of the people of Goodhue County. The
remarks which l made were, that, personally,
1 was in favor Of the North and South Boun-
Diary line, and, so far as my information ex-
tended, the people of Goodhue County, were
in favor of the same. That 1 voted for the
Resolution not because my constituents OF
Goodhue County or myself were in favor Of
an East and West line-but that we, as q
Convention, having Internationally accepted
the North and South Boundary line, and on
ly considering, the proposition contained in
the Resolution simply as memorial to Con
gress, 1 was in favor of the right of petition
and would therefore vote for the resolution.
Respectfully,
CHARLES MCCLURE.
