Gov. German Mt NIankato.

The Mankato Independent, which is what
it claims to be, journal independent in par
ty politics, speaks as follows of Gov. Cor
MANS political mission to that quarter Of
Minnesota. We hope our readers will read
carefully the Independents version Of Cor
MAN:
Ex-Gov. w. A. GORMAN.-The above
named individual addressed a crowded al
dience, in the City Hall, in this place, on lass
Saturday evening. We were not resent
but learn that he made characteristic speech
just such an one as was to be expected of
-Gorman in pursuit of the Office of U. S.
Senator.
OF Germans politics-if has any-or of
the peculiar principles or measures which he
advocated, it is not our province to speak,
But, in the capacity of an independent jour-
nalist, We should consider ourself recreant
to the plainest dictates of duty did We fail
to pat upon record our opinion of the man,
who-as we are credibly informed-by his
sycophancy and ma useating fattery, sought
to reinstatc himselfin the good graces of his
party in this county, on last Saturday night.
We cannot but recur to the events of few
months back, when the very mention of his
name sufficient to curl the lips Of those who
are now ready to greet him with "thun ders
of applause" with scorn and contempt for
the then, "mercenary thing" the corrupt
demagogue," the infamous scoundr> J." the
"loud-mouihed braggart," and all that thing,
through the whole billingsgate annals. Our
opinion Of the man has undergone no change.
We believe so sill. We have yet to learn
of any act of his that should be sufficient to
redeem him from the immeasurable depth of
infamy-from the ineffable scorn and con-
tempt to which public opinion aad consigned
him. We entertained the same opinion of
the man, years ago. before the soil of Mime
sofa was cursed by his presence, or its best
interests endangered by his misrule. We
look upon him as one of the most consum-
mate rascals allowed to run at large, and in
expressing thus plainly, our opinion of the
man. we but echo the sentiments Of his old
neighbors who have known him longest and
best
AS to his politics, "Gorman is all things to
all men" as best suits his own interest. His
politics, religion and morals, are as changea-
BILE as the hues of the chameleon, according
to locality or circumstance. And, since the
true character of the man has become patent
to the people of this Territory, it is brazon
faced etfrOntery unparalleled, for him to ap-
pear before an intelligent audience, and with
his smooth-tongued flattery, attempt to in
gratiate into their good will
We may incur the displeasure of some
for speaking our sentiments thus plaiily, il
So so be it. We are not one of those who
"crook the hinges Of the knee, that thrift
may follow fawning,' and while we expect to
stand aloof from all interference in party poll
tics, we shall, yet, in the in the proper spir-
it of independence, speak cut boldly in re-
gard to men and measures, as occasion may
require, or, in our opinion, the public good
may demand

We clip the following from the spicy local
columns of the ST. Anthony Republican:
A GERMAN ORAroR.-We hear it current
ly reported that Sam'l c. Ludwig, Esq, Edi-
tor of the German Republican paper in Bal
timore, who is now in the Territory, will
speak to the Germans of this city sometime
next (this) week. His reputation as a real
orator has preceded him, and we will pledge
him an audience here.
1.-TWO Forty - German the political
gamber-the Shakopee Aduocate calls him
the King Of Clubs"-is stumping the State
for Congress. By the terror with which he
fled from Wilson after he had knocked him
down with an ebony bludgeon, we predict he
will make q great run!
GREAT EXODUS OF LOGs.-In consequence
of the rain of Tuesday, numerous logs were
washed from the shores of the river above,
which brought up" in Morrison's boom
above the suspension bridge-until that in
stitution was filled completely full on Wednes-
day. The steamer II. Nj. Rice had adyertis.
ed to leave for up river, but the logs COM
pietely hedged around the boat and fastened
it to to its place. Getting impatient of de-
lay, although the river men were clearing a
path as fast as possible, somebody ordered
the boom cut, and about million of logs
were released from their moorings and hurled
in noisy fury over the Falls. Thus eight
thousand dollars worth of logs was set ahoat
on the Mississippi TO crafty the impetuous
demands of Commerce We learn that an
action has been brought against the steam
boat men for damages and without censur-
ing any one, it seems to us that the destruc-
ton Of personal property to revenge the ag-
gressions of September storm, was to say
the least, rather husty.
ANOTHER RUNAwAY.-A team belonging to
Thomas Moulton, took to flight on Monday
while being driven down Main street by
Thomas Hill, and, dashing against a post
near the store of d. Edwards, hurled the
driver from his seat to the hard ground. lie
struck upon his face and head, and was taken
up by the by-standers in an unconscious
state. His wounds were promptly dressed
by DR.. Murphy, under whose skilful treat.
ment the patient is rapidly recovering. Up
on accurate measurement, it was found that
ne was thrown from his seat in the wagon,
the frightful distance OF Miny-two feet! Had
he struck the pavement few feet beyond, it
must have caused instant death.
