MINNESOTA 1TEMs.-The papers from
Minnesota continue to be filled, to the
exclusion of almost all other matter,
with arguments pro and con the &c..
00O,O Loan bill The election on
this measure took place Oh the 18th
inst.
The people of St. Paul have just
voted to raise loan of 100000 to
complete the bridge now being con
structed over the Mississippi at that
point. The estimated cost is $40, 900
1t is intended that the structure shall
be completed some time during the
coming summer.
Coal of a fine quality has been found
near Red Wing.
Minnesota State Scrip is worth
eighty cents on the dollar.
The st. Paul papers state that the
religious revival has extended to the
Dakoto Indians, and at Lac qui Pearle
a work of grace is going forward.
At Saltwater, four out of six of the
new Council are Republicans. This
city has heretofore been strongly
Democratic.
At Winona the Republicans elected
their candidates for Recorder, Marshal,
Treasurer, Justice and Attorney, and
the Democrats their candidates for the
other Offices.

Republican Meeting.

In Difference to repeated solicitation,
we re-publish the following record of
the proceedings Of a Republican meet
ing held at the School House in this
village, which was published in the
Intelligencer of July 20, 1851:
Agrccably to notice, the Republi-
cans of ST. Charles precinct met in
mass convention, at the school-house,
in st. Charles, on Saturday, July 18th
1857. The meeting was organized by
the election of A. B. +. Hildreth, as
President, and James jackson, Score
tary.
On motion, a committee Of three
were appointed to nominate eight del
igatcs to the County Convention,
which is to be holden at Ripley, on the
23d inst, for making a nomination of
County Officers. The Chair appoint
ed John Heath, r. w. Humphrey and
S. Hackley, as said committee. After
short consultation, the committee
reported, as nominees for delegates,
the following gentlemen, viz: j. NJ.
Parsons, r. w. Humphrey, G. H.
Whitehead, John Kellogg, A. B. F.
Hildreth, c. II. Young, S. Harwood and
James Jackson. The report was &C.
ceptcd, and the nominees unanimously
elected as delegates to the Republican
County Convention.
1t was then unanimously
Resolred. That should any of the delegates
elected by this meeting to the County Con
vention, be absent, those present are author
lied to cast the full vote of the delegation !;
and also that each delegate is empowered to
appoint substitute should he be unable to
attend.
The following gentlemen were cleo
ted Republican Township Commit
tee, viz. A. B. F. Hildreth, r. w.
Humphrey, human butcher, c. H.
Young, James jackson. Mr.. Young
has since removed to Rivcrton, and
NJ. butcher has been set off in the new
town of Niles
The meeting was further entertain
ed by speeches from Messrs. Hildreth,
Hackley, Patterson and jackson, when
it was adjourned sine die.
A. b. F. HILDRETH, President.

accept. Without positive knowledge,
I Judge Mr.. Hildreth occupies the
same position, and possibly some Of
the others.
Aware of the irregularity of their
proceedings, the Judge attempts to
justify, thus We could not appoint
a committee at the regular caucus, for
it amalgamated with the Democrats
and was no longer Republican eau.
Gus" Here again ! am compelled to
differ with the Judge, and to deny his
premises. The Republicans in caucus
assembled resolved, almost unani-
mously, to invite in Democrats and
make a union or peoples nomination,
which was accordingly done. Does
that invalidate a Republican caucus ?
Clearly not. Now what is the rule in
cases of joint conventions Is it not
that when their business is complete,
the party invited in, or seeking the
other, retircs, each party or body still
in the exercise of its own legitimate
functions? Admitting such to be the
case, and l think it will not be dis
putcd the original caucus then was
clearly the proper one to appoint a
committee, leaving the new boilers or
bogus committee without shadow or
semblance of authority.
When, for goodness sake, is this
ridiculous farce to end, and what is
it's conceivable object? hope good
Republicans will reflect, before pro-
ceeding further, and let us, if possible,
effect harmonious understanding and
restore the good feeling which has
heretofore been manifested among
us. X. w. II.
