MINNESOTA E:ccIion.

The St. Paul Pioneer and Democrat
of the 22d, ult. contains the following
quiet hit at those Republicans who still
claim the election of Ramsey:
No additional election news came in
an official form, yesterday. Brown:
County is reported at over 400 majority
for Sibley, and Pembina County, as far
as heard from, at 200. In Olmsted
County, we hear, the Democracy have
carried a portion of their Legislative
ticket; and also in the Freedom and
Faribault District.
The Republicans still claim the cleo.
ton ofRamsey. We have no objection.
1t amuscs and consoles them, and does
not hurt the Democracy. Those laugh
best who laugh last" and many a poor
Republican, who has been induced tc
go his pile" on the misrepresentation
of the Minncsotian and Times, will sus
tain us as to the wisdom of the proverb
and the propriety of moderation in an
nouncing election news.

How true! How prophetic !!
m.In a letter received from c

nA. In a letter received from Califor-
mia, it is stated that the section of the
Wagon Road under the superintendent
of Mr.. John Kirk, was progressing fine
ly. On or about the 18th ultimo the
expedition was within one hundred and
fifty miles of the eastern terminus OF
that section. Several of the persons
connected with the expedition give rath-
or an unfavorable accoun of the coun-
try between Honey Lake and Humboldt
river. 1t docs not come up to the rep
reservations respecting it, water and
grass not being plentiful. Before now.
it is supposed, the entire expedition has
returned to the starting point, and that
the entire work is finished.

Kansas aud the Political SeMti.
mcntSAOf its Citizens.

The Kansas correspondent of Cincin-
natl Times, ID a recent letter, makes the
following remarks respecting the real
political sentiments of the citizens of
that Territory. They but corroborate
what was said some months ago by a
distinguished Southerncr, who travelled
through the Territory, and who, in a
letter to the Charleston Mercury, said
that land speculation would make Kan
sas a free Stat:
Il desire to correct an impression
which prevails in the States, that the
Republicans have carried Kansas.
"There as no such party here aud ne
Ger has been! Two-thirds of the votes
given for the Free-State ticket in the
recent election we're polled by men who
were bitterly opposed, both to the prin-
pies and the policy of the Republican
party. I am happy to say that there is,
at this moment, a large number of real
Simon-Pure Americans in Kansas Ter
ritory and I have yet to find one sim
gle American, whether from the North
or the South. who did not, in the recent
election, go his whole length-to use
a popular phrase@for the entire Free
State Ticket. A large number of dyed
in -the-wool Democrats also gave their
votes and energies for the success of the
Frec-Statc Ticket. These facts are in
controvertible. The question now ari-
ses Why did men of such widely diff
ferent political sentiments act together
upon this occasion? The reason is OBJ
vious. These men lave their all invest
ed in Kansas, and depended, to a great
degree, for success upon the immigra-
ton next spring. The first law of hu-
man nature is self-interest. Every ra-
tional man in Kansas knew perfectly
well that if the Democratic ticket sue
ceeded at this period of our history, it
would be heralded throughout the length
and breadth of the land as a pr~o-slavery
victory, and that such an impression
could not be easily eradicatcd, and that
it would almost entirely check immigra-
ton. Whereas, on the other hand, if
the Free State Ticket was victorious
as it certainly is-the immigration into
Kansas next spring, from the States.
would be immense-indeed 1cathont a
single parallel in the history of the set
clement of nc1o countries! These truths
are verified by the immense increase in
immigration since the election. Every
boat up the river is crowded to its ut
most capacity with persons and families
intending to settle in Kansas. The ho-
tells in this city are literally crammed."

AanSlS.

1t is not entirely certain that the
Blacks will have 4 majority in2the Legis-
lature of Kansas, but there will be a
large majority in favor of making it a
free State. Parrot, the free State candi-
date for Congress, has a large majority.
These results, says the Chicago Times,
;'have produced a perfect horror among
the rampant abolitionists. All prospect
of Kansas beginning a slave State has
petri6ed them with alarm. The contest
is over: the question has been virtually
decided, and Kansas shrieks no more.-
The Kansas-N ebraska act which secured
to the people of Kansas the right to de-
termine the question ofslavery for them
selves, has been indicated. The peo-
pie have resortcd to the polls, and have
accomplished that which could never
h i've been done by rebellion. Kansas
is at rest--thc means that have pro.
duccd that rest, the simple process of vo-
ting"

The Constitution of OREGON.

The Constitution likely, according to
the last accounts, to be adopted by the
Oregon Convention, contains some re-
markdble provisions. It does away
(says the Journal of Commerce) with
grand jurics as unnecessary-the pre-
liminary examination before a masis-
trate' previous to committal being deem
ed sufficient. 1t provides there shall be
no lieutenant governor; that the Secre-
tary of State shall exercise the functions
of Governor pro tenn. in case of the
death of that functionlry and that the
Governor shall also be Treasurer of
State. The number of members of the
State Senate is limited to fifteen, and
that of the assembly to thirty, with BIZ
enpial sessions. The ballot is abolish
ed at elections, and rira roce voting sub
stituted. Judges are declared ineligi-
BILE for any Office not judicial during the
period for which they are elected, and
for one year after: municipalities are
absolutely prohibited from contracting
debts; and bank charters of every de-
scription are forbidden. With regard
to slavery, it is bclievedthattwo clauses
one legalizing and the other prohibit
ing slavery-will be appended to the
draught of the Constitution, to be adopt
ed or rejected by a subsequent vote of
the people.

ra- The Kansas election has settled
one thing, namely, that the Free State
men outnumber their opponents. This
is just what we always insisted. Now
of course the Constitutional Convention
will frame a non-slaveholding Constitu-
ton, the people will ratify it, and Kan
sas will be admitted a Free State, at the
next session of Congress. So much for
Il sensible Governor like Robert J. Wal
kcr. So much for the honest, peaceful,
Democratic way of leaving domestic
matters to the people to vote upon in
stead of sending thcm Sharp's Rifles tc
shoot each other with! Well, now
the Kansas question is settled, Kansas
.'bleeds" no more! What will the
Republicans" do?

The Great Democratic Triumph
In Ohio.

The democracy of Ohio are receiving
the enthusiastic congratulations of their
democratic brethren in other States for
their signal triumph over black republi-
canism in the recent election, according
to us, under our gallant standard-bear-
er, HENRY B. PAYNE. one of the most
vigorous, bold and invincible campaigns
ever carried through by the democratic
party. The election of CHASE by so
small a majority, while the democracy
have carried both branches of the Leg
islaturc, and the member Of the Board
of Public Works, has SO paralized the
Congoes, that CHAsE's election is re-
ceived with sullenness and modification.
Even this last expiring gasp will have
gone up at the next election, the indom-
table democracy having overcome IN
three years the $4,000 black republican
majority against us in 1854, save a frac-
ton left CHASE at the recent election,
and that fraction doubtless negro votes

GRANGE from the fresh leaves of tropical

lose nothing by comparison with that
of the choicest Rhcnish Cologne, and is
infinitely superior to that made in Paris,
while it is scarcely more than half the

THE evils ola redundant paper circu
