Governor Stewart,

We hope Governor Stewart will do one
iof two fhings-resigD or quit drinking and
attend 10 the discharge Of his Official duties.
His conduct is TO say the very least, unhe-
coming public servant, and has teDden-
cy to disgrace not only him but the people
Of The State. 1t reflects upon their ineIli-
gence and sound judgment in placing SO dis
sipsted man in office. For their sake and
for the sake Of those warm personal friends
who staked their honor on his reforming if
elected, he should desist. We have moth
ing personal against the man, but believe If
he would let liquor alone he would make
us an excellent Governor. But his mind Is
becoming impaired by constant dissipation
and he might readily, with the dash Of a
pen ruin the State. A man who goes 10
the lowest doggeries TO dissipate, and is
constantly at it, is not to be trusted with
The affairs Of State that is just branching
out on policy Of internal Improvement that
requires a man of steady nerve, sound
judgment and financial ability TO be at the
head Of affairs. We hope the papers who
have the welfare of the State al heart, will
speak out and ask the Governor 10 resign,
or desist his dissipation. We call for bis
next winter. The intelligent;
and honest men Of all parties call for it and
the people Of the different counties should
hold meetings and instruct their Represen-
talives and Senators, 10 inquire into the
conduct OF his excellency. BY remaining
silent it is an endorsement OF him. We
have not told hall we have seen ourself Of
Governor Stewards conduct; because we
were told every spree would be his last
But il seems not. His dissipation is grow
ing upon him and he is now farther from
reforming than ever. We have been told
we were prosecuting Governor Stewart
This is not 50, we entertain no i'll feeling
against The man; but as public journalist
it is our duty 10 protect the dignity and de-
corum of the State and 10 guard the rights
and interests Of the people, whenever we
think them in danger. We think so now.
So does every sober intelligent man who is
not blinded with party zeaI.-[ Jefferson In

Gov. Stewart Whipped Again.

On Tuesday evening, his Exceilency
Gov. Robert Stewart, who has been stop
ping in this city, his old home, for few
days past, met with DR.. Erdmann, a Ger.
man physician, ia bar room out at the
brewery, when an alteration took place
and a fight ensued, in which the Dr., after
pummeling ard giving his ExcelIency a
back eye and few scratches, came of first
best. There can be no doubt about this
fight, and We understand the Governor ac-
knowledges q himself, but says the DR..
commenced il. The DR.. has told US all
about it. and says il was on account Of the
Governors insolence. and that his Excel
lency commenced It first. We understand
the Governor was not OF ell in . fighting
and the DR.. is free to scknowl-
edge that he was not altogether himself
But enough, the DR.. says he whipped the
Governor, and SO say eye witnesses, and
We don't think it would be expedient TO dis.
pute, al least, the DIS word.
Il is with feelings Of regret and sorrow,
and not in q spirit of exultaiion. that We
record the above difficulty, but we believe
il to be our duty. ss public journalist, 10
Expose wrong and immortality in high as
we'll as low places. let the consequences be
what they msy.-[st. Joseph Journal.

Illinois Banks and Bsnking.

Thh Cairo Gazdts gives the following
insight into Banks and Banking, in ILL
nois:-
Too many Of our Illinois Banks a.e Banks

existence in reality, doing no legitimate bus
mess, having no Banking House or office,
and paying out no coin. or all The Banks
in Southern Illinois, not more than two or
three, if even that, ever discount note,
sell an exchange, or redeem a dollar Of
their circulation. Take The Frontier Bank
at Benton, Agricultural Bank at Marion,
Bank Of Raleigh, or in fact any Of the Banks
in the interior, and does any person in the
town in which they pretend to be situated,
know anything about these institutions? II

Illinois Politics.

The contest between Senator Douglas
and Mr.. Lincoln, IN Illinois. excites uuiver-
sal attention. The Washington Union,
President Buchanan's organ. continues 10
denounce Douglas as a disorganizer and
traitor. preIerring the success of the Black
Republicans 10 that Of the Douglas democ-
racy. The National papers in this State
are j st beginning 10 find out there is a
contest in Illinois, and are timidly creeping
up to the support of Douglas. The Repub-
iiean, after Frank Blair went TO Illinois,
and spoke against Douglas, has taken po-
silion: Here it Isl
While it is very well known that we dis
approved ofthe position assumed by Judge
Douglas at the commencement Of the last
Congress on the presentation Of the Presi-
dents Message, and the discussion which
was then provoked by him on the Kansas
Constitution, we entertain no doubt now
that true patriotism, an honest desire for
The settlement OF this vexed question, will
best be consulted by sustaining Senator
Douglas in his war upon the Black Repub-
licans OF the State, and the defeat of that
party. Judge Douglas declares himself
now, as he always has been, Democrat
he stands pledged 10 the doctrines Of the
Cincinnati platform - his most intimate
friends not only say that he will be found
supporting the Nominees of the Charleston
Convention in 1860, but that he expects to
be the nominee of that Convention all
occasions, ct all points and in all positions,
his hostility 10 Black Republicanism has
been bold and incorporating, and added
10 all this is bis persistent declaration that,
now that the Kansas question is settled by
the people Of that Territory, there is no
cause Of further difference between him and
the President, or that portion Of the Demo-
cratic party who, in the past session Of
Congress, took q different view Of their
dIiy from what he did. Such being his
position and his sentiments, the conserva.
live men Of Illinois Wings and Americans
those who hate Black Republicsnism,
and believe that that heresy must lead 10 a
dissolution of the Union-in our opinion,
ought TO have no hesitation in giving their
influence and their votes for candidates
who will the reelection of Mr.. Douglas.
The .Neus says this article suggests TO
US several questions which we hope some
sstute and reliable Democrat will be kind
enough TO answer:

The weekly Minnesotian. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. Territory) 1852-1858, 1858-03-06

To this ignoramus. query propounded
week or two since, by the Dailys Times news
paper, Mr.. HODGES has himself returned an
answer satisfactory to the public by his brief
but unanswerable remarks in the Senate upon
the final passage of the swindfing Loan Bill.
We hope our readers have not failed to give
those remarks an attentive perusal. They
are not long, but are very much to the point !;
and show that the proposed securities for the
s5,O0o,OOo monster, are receptions, that
'keep the promise to the ear but break it to
the hope" Mr.. HODGES deserves much cred
it for his able review of the rascality.
The weekly Minnesotian. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. Territory) 1852-1858, 1858-03-06
Gov. Ramsey and Hon. j. w. North
Their Position in the Loan Bill.

Mr.. BALCoMBE in his letter defending the
"stop-my paper card of himself and the 9TH
er Winona erasives," takes the liberty of
using the names OF several honest gentlemen
and Republicans, who are minority members
in the ards of Directors of the four Rail-
road Companies.
One of these is Governor RAMSEY, who is
unfortunate enough to be nominally a Direc
tor in the Minnesota and Pacific Road
with about as much power to control its af-
fairs as Mr. BALCoMBE would James Buchan-
ans administration, and against whom at the
late election the entire influence of its officers
and the money of the company were unscru-
pulously used By means of mock Railroads
and mock reht-of-way agents electioneering
for SIBLEY at ten dollars per day.
Gov. RAMSEY IS now absent in the East );
but II 1t will do Mr.. BALCoMBE any good, We
can tell him, that before his departure we
learned that the Ex-Governor's fears of the
tendency of the proposed bill to concentrate
political power In unfit hands, wer, as lively
as our own and that he earnestly deprecated
its passage as measure premature, as to
time-unsound on general principles-and
likely to impose grievous burden of taxa-
ton upon the people of the State He had
no confidence in the ''net profits" as a re-
source to pay interest with ; nor in the posi-
bility of there being any sufficient security Of
fered, to guarantee the State from present, il
not ultimate, loss. These being his senti-
ments, We corlid. ntly believe if he was here
he would stan nth the Mnnesotian in toto
against TINS project, the spawn of the Wis
eonsn forty thcves," and their pals here in
Minnesota.
The name of the Hon. JoHy w NORM
Of Rice County, Director in the Cedar Val.
ley r. R., has also been used, to prom infer
j.. entiaIly Mr.. BALCONIES position. We foe,
authorized to say of him likewise, that from
asouversation we had with him two or three
weeks since, We knouo him to be opposed tt
fully with Governor RAMSEY in the view
above expressed.
Amongst the few Republican Directors il
the Railroads whose names Mr.. BALCoMB
has given, there are doubtless others, VIII
abhor the project, but We do not know then
and cannot vouch for their opinions.
But as to the position OF Gov. RAMsE,
and AR. NoKTH there is no mistaHe-it i
against the Monster Bill
