Confirmation Strong.

1t has been alleged, tn at the federal office
holders are deliberately engaged in a game t.
maintain quietly the Douglas ascendancy in
Minnesota, and to smother out the formation
of any party for the President in this State.
1t has been pointed out as one of the plans of
doing this, that either Douglas resolutions,
or none at oil, were to be passed at the diife-
rent County conventions. In confirmation Cf
this charge, we notice that the g Democratic

convention w. n. CARUTHERs, Register f

ihe st. Cloud District Republican
Nominations.

The battle in the district on the Upper
Mississippi, of which St. Cloud is the center,
promises to be well contested by three tickets
in the field. Below we give an extract of a
letter dated st. Cloud, Sept %, 1858:
"The District Republican Convention for
Stearns, Benton and Meeker counties met on
the 18th, and nominated for the Legislature
GoRToN, of Stearns; A. p. WHITNEY, of
Meeker; and CHARLES A. GILMAN, of
Benton. The Anti-Lecompton Democrats,
outstanding that the Office holders con.
vention lodged any expression of political
sentiments, are not satisfied to take the ticket

City have selected for the Democracy, and it
Is supposed that they will nominate Nc
CLURE, of Stearns, and WooD, of Sank Rap

adopt WHITNEY of Meeker AS things
stand, the fight in this quarter promises to
be interesting and don't be surprised if the
office-holders and moccasinites are cleaned
out, their two land Offices to the contrary not
withstanding.

clan here, from Harrisburg Pa, and a fair

Steele and Waseca Legislative NOmina.
atoms.

The Fifteenth Senatorial District, compos-
ed'of the counties Of Steele and Waseca sends
one Senator and four representatives to the
Legislature. We learn that the Republicans
of that district have just made their nomina-
tions. For Senator, LEWIS MCKUNE is re
nominated. This is right. No more atten-
tive legislator or one who was more incorriip-
tible or more generally right on all questions,
sat on the Senate floor than LEWIS MCKUvE.
In the general staying down of near'y all the
members of the late legislature which we per-
ceive is the uniform result of the county nom
nations as they are being made, we arc glad
to thus note that Mr.. MCKUNE is an excep; ION,
as he eminently deserves to be. For Repre-
sentatives, H. NJ. SHEErz the able member
from Steele, is also re-nomnated; with GEo.
W. GREENE, A. A. WOODWARD, and a Mr..
MORRILL,, as his associates on the ticket.
We trust this staunch Republican district
will not fail to sustain these nominations
that in view IF the Z. S. Senator to be cleo
ted, and for the sake of the general cause, no
Republican will allow selfish interests or fac
ton leaders to divert him from sustaining the
whole ticket, every man Oh which, we learn,
is Of sterling worth and capacity.

The Operation of the Atlantic Cable.

All sorts of rumors and assurances are
ahoat and have been given with reference to
it, and the result of the whole is that the pub
lie are in a complete puzzle ard condition of
doubt and uncertainty with reference to it
In the ". Y Tribume of the Goth, We notice
a communication from Francis &. Young,
which, in view of what has actually transpir-
ed, seems entitled to some consideration. He
saws that the laws of sci nee are against the
successful working of the cable and that the
messages which have been received have been
the result of favorable phenomena which have
permitted it, but which are not reliable. He
conceives it possible that a like favorable
condition may permit dispatches again, and
that such conditions may occur not unfi e.
quently, but as general principle the cable
is a failure. The eccentric operation of the
Gable seems to warrant such an idea-With
reference to what may be hoped from the
Hughes instrument Mr.. Young says:
But that the public may not be disappoInt-
ed if Prof Hughes experiments should not
at once be crowned with success, L stale the
fact told me by the clerk in the office OF the
COMPANY. that they were forty continuous
niohts experimenting with his instruments

On the 18th of September, inst, the Re-

County Judge-Benjamin G. Baldwin, OF
Lake City.
County Coroner-Charles c. Schmaus, Of
Reeds Landing.
The Wabashaw Herald speaking of the
Convention and the result of its labors
says:
1.-The general desire expressed was that
the candidates might be good men, true Re-
publicans, and SO apportioned as to secure
the strongest possible vote, and satisfy al
portions of he county, which we believe was
accomplished fully. Our ticket as it now
stands is the strongest that could be chosen
ard will be triumphantly elected"
OF the Legislative ticket, we only are
acquainted with Mr.. AvERILL, the Senatorial
nominee. He is superior man. The jour.
nal well describes him Gas an active working
out-spoken, live Republican ;" aud that he is
" a man who will reflect honor upon the par.
ty nominating, and the county electing him.

The Pioneer, we see, says positively: "this

and our information is from the most intelli-
gent source. 1t is not fair to have selected
a man on this ticket with the sole view of
running him in upon the strength of St. A.
D. BALCONIES reputation and popularity.
But we do not think even 81. BALcoMB" will
slip in, Notwithstanding his name. The Irish
railroad hands on the Transit Road are
counted upon, we suppose, to make good the
Pioneers confident assertion. But they have
no right to vote in Wincna County, and sciA

The Democracy of Houston County have
nominated for the House of Representatives,
Mr.. Snow, of La Crescent E. MTNTYRE, of
Dedham, and E. BELL, of Belville. The
ticket is one OF the strongest ever nominated
in Houston county. Mr.. MINrYRE will be
remembered as an honest and faithful repre-
sentative in the last egislature-Pioueer and

On the 18th of August last, the same Pho
meer censured Mr. MTNTYRE as one of the sew
en- Democrats in the House who voted a re-
fu>al to 60 into joint convention to elect U.
S. Senator. and voted with the Republicans
to indefinitely postpone the whole question,
and afterwards voted with the Republicans
to pass SrARKEY's resolution, as follows:
Res0Lusd, That the course pursued by men,
bers of the present Legislature, to enforce the
election of Senator of the United States at
the present session, to fill the seat occupied
by Gen. Shields, for the purpose of advancing
corrupt designs, and to elect Lecompton
Senator as demonstration against Stephen
A. Douglas, and to conciliate the favors Of the
| national administration, is alike vloatlve OF
the sentiments of the people OF Minnesota,
and obnoxious to the honor, interests and dig
nifty of the State

Is It not little curious that Mr.. MINTYRE

and who voted for what the Pioneer pro-
nounced ialsehood, should be the only Dem
ocratic member Of that legislature re-nomina-
ted from his own county, and almost the only
one that is re-nominated thus far in any coun-
ty of the State; and besides, that he should
now receive the Pioneers endorsement as
