Another Amendment.

The Legislature have provided for another
amendment to the Constitution, to be voted
upon on the 18th of April. 1t provides for
so amending the Constitution as to require
the state officers to qualify and enter upon
their duties on the first of May, if we are not
sooner admitted. And yet, important as this
is or may be in its results, no provision is
made forlts publication except in the recpiant

From the St. Anthony News, April 9Th.
The City Election Yesterday.--Tri
of the Independent Candidate Ov
Democratic Nominee!

The City Election Yesterday---Triumph
of the Independent Candidate over the
Democratic Nominee!
The election yesterday passed off highly
creditable to the city of St. Anthony. Altho'
the heaviest vote was polled ever known here
for municipal officers, and deep interest pre-
vailed as to the result, yet good order and
peace regined in all quarters.
AT the result of the election, in common
with the great mass of our citizens, we rejoice.
Orrin Curtis, Esq. the regular independent
Candidate, has been elected Mayor over the
regular nominee of the Democratic caucus,
Henry Whipple, by the sweeping majority of
four hundred and .torty-nine cotes.
The Republicans, almost unanimously,
threw votes and influence for Mr.. Curtis. 1t
is due also to say that many prominent Dem
ocrats did the same thing.
They determined to do as they pleased,
regardless of "bogus nominations" and we
honor them for it. TO the Germans of the
lst Ward, great credit is due for the gallant
manner in which they came to the support
of the true ticket. They are not to be de-
ceived much longer by demagogucs.
We believe that competent Council has
been secured, land that gooG Council will here
after preva il. So tar as tie political COM
pleXion of the members of the new council
is concerned, it will be observed that tire
Wards out of four have elected Republicans.
The rejection of that staunch German Repub.
lican Daniel Knobloch, in the lst Ward sur
prises good many.
We believe that Mr.. Curtis will not only
make competent but faithful and energet-
ic Mayor. 1t is our earnest desire that he
may succeed in satisfying all quarters of the
city-doing as much for the interest of one
locality as another. We have great faith
that St. Anthony has bright future A
good deal of rejoicing took place last even
ing.

Our Warrington Correspondence.
WASHINGTON, April 3, 1858.

10 the Editors oftAs AS~assott0S:
Just at this moment it would seem almost
idle to say word about the Lecompton
measure. From day to day l have hoped
for its final settlement in some form, pu'
now, as the Senate rejected yesterday the
House amendment, there is no devising what
may be the issue. l hope for nothing worse
than that Congress may spend the remand
er of the session in speech making, while In
the meantime Kansas will form Consttu-
ton expressive Of the true wants OF the peo-
pie, to which no objection can be made,-that
it will pass, and thus close the whole subject
forever.
Ii was very unfortunate that the President
identified himself with the slavery side of this
question. 1t was suicidal policy for him to
make any legislative interference with the
subject at all. Congress may admit new
States,'-not the President and having ia
ken the wrong step, for which Congress re-
buked him, it is wonderful that he still per-
sists in going onward, though he knows he
is trampling down the rights, and rendering
himself and his government obnoxious to
some twelve millions of freemen in the
North. Is not that strange infatuation
The people almost en- masse, in Kansas,
have declared their dislike to the Lecompton
Constitution, but the President having unit
ed himself with it, or rather with the pro-
slavery men, will not hearken to their petit
lions, but is straining his executive power to
the utmost to force this tyrannical govern
ment upon them. Is this not the strangest
frenzy ever President was guilty off How
much wiser and better for him to abandon
his position before more mischief be none
All the political machinery of fifty such
Presidents, with all their Office holders to
back them, cannot bind down nor enthral
any section of the free American people.
A short time ago. popular sovereignty was
all the cry by those very men. What has
become of the doctrine now?
This forcing upon a free people form of
government to which they almost unani-
mously obje ct, is sovereignty with ven
geance Who, except Mr.. Buchanan, is
sovereign? Whether done in person, or by
his agents, Green, Bigler and others, it mat
tiers not, as it answers to the dictation of the
President.
This is a sad state of affairs. 1t has d.
vided the Minnesota delegation, among other
evils it is everywhere perpetratiHg. Gen.
Shields cannot cooperate with this infamous
slave amendment, and it is most surprising
that Mr.. Rice lends it such hearty support
cannot account for it. 1t is charged that
he does so in pursuit of Executive patronage !;
but l would be slow to believe so degrading
thing Of him. 1t is true the President has
cut right and left with a most unsparing
hand, looping off political laxities, but what
had Rice to fear? l am sure know not
but great is the mystery of politics past
finding out.
There is no telling now when the Mime
sofa bill will get through the House. If Mr..
Guile and Hunter will draw off, it will prob
ably pass the Senate on the 9Th.

10 The Editors OF tho Ninnesotian:
The Senate has just rejected the House
amendment to the Lecompton Bill. The
question now is, will the House stand by its
amendment? The whole administration pow
er is employed now with the hope of gaining
over some four or five votes in the House.
Rulnors are rife of the most extraordinary
offers being made to members to abandon
their position and vote Lecompton, or the
Senate Bill. The best opinion is that they
will fail.
The Minnesota question will be the next
test, and on this it is expected the ultra
Southern men will make move to reject our
bill, to be revenged for the defeat on Kansas,
But this is desperate game, and even the
secessionists will pause before they are too far
committed.
There is another movement ffccting our
Territory going on here for some days past.
that it is but right to inform you of. Ger
tain Office holders and Office seekers, acting
upon the principle that our people are such
asses that they must always have their line
Of duty prescribed, and marked out by the
superior intellect of these special guardians,
have drawn up a flowing pompous Circular
Letter. handed am told to H. NJ. RICE, in
forming our people what course they must
pursue in voting at the coming election upon
the Five Million Bill. suppose since Mr..
Buchanan set the example, interference with
the private right of citizens, dictation from
their superiors as to how they may, or how
they may not act, is to be the order of the
day. Did you suppose that any body of ar
rogant, selfconceited men, would, even before
they were seated on the floor of Congress,
dare to use whatever political strength they
may have to dictate to our tax payers.
There are, it is true, private citizens names
upon the circular who are directly interested
in the matter, others dragooned into it, and
Others wholly Indifferent about it?
l call this a high handed measure. The
pompous presumption that dictated the thing
is disgusting to free people. Have our peo-
pie not sufficient intelligence to know their
own wants? Are they all left in darkness
the moment their political asprants with
draw their effulgence from the territory?-
Or have our people sunk to such state of
dependent degradation that they await, with
open mouths, afraid to move, until the signal
comes from Washington? The document
will be good one for future reference.
Yours truly,
MINNESOTIUS.

The Free Soil Triumph In st. Louise.
Great Gain i'm the FREQ Soil Vote.


Prom the Missouri Democrat.
We have to record to-day another glorious
triumph of the Free Democracy of St. Louis,
over a combination of all the opposition in
the city. by majority which will range close
upon twelve hundred votes. We say it is a
glorious triumph, and if we consider the ap-
pliances that were used, the prodigal expen-
diture of public moneys, the various elements
that were consolidated against US, and the
almost superhuman exertions of our adver-
saries at the polls, we may safely say that
more signal victory the Free Democracy of
this city never achieved Appeals were made
to every prejudice and every passion, and our
honest contemporary of the Republican, as
last resort, placarded Mr.. Filley as hauing
once been Shareholder, and presented that as
reason ichy he should be coted against. 1t is
sufficient at this late hour to saw that the
whole ticket has triumphed by a magnificent
average majority of twelve hundred votes.
that we have carried both branches of the
City Council, and that the free soil gain in
St. Louis since April last, when the partv
came in by plurality, and failed by nearly
two hundred votes of majority, has been
from fourteen to fifteen hundred votes. This
is glory enough for one day.
