General shields and Kansas.

When commenting upon the election OF the
General to the u. $. Senate, We expressed
our firm conyic ion tina. he could never be
brought to the support of the Lecompton
.wipdle. OF course we made this statement
upon our own responsibility but wc argued
rs tru h from our own knowledge of his pre-
vious action, when Senator from Illinois
and we were satisfied that he would never
court from Minnesota such discipline as he
then received.
Reports have been current throughout the
Territory, that he had joined the admins
tration and although his Maj. Murphy letter
read anti Lecompton, yet 'he Community
seemed not to be sat,fied.-We have now
the satisfaction Of declaring upon the ie>ti-
nony of his own letter, that he is rrecoDcil-
ably opposed 20 That instrument and that
n no event can he bc drawn into its support.
His he saws, has male him poweress with
he administration and nothing can be OBJ
aimed for Minnesota upon his personal ap-
tlica,ion.

muutable.

The Kansas debate has nearly run out in
the House which adjourned at five tins p.
Mr.. no one desiring to speak on the subject.
The Turkish Admiral and suite have ac-
cepted an invitation 10 visit the Red River OF
the North, which is the Western boundary OF
Minnesota. The principal object being to
see the valley of the river and to engage in
hunting the elk and buffalo. 1t is proposed
t. make the trip in July. 1t is said that Vice
President Breckenridge, Senators Fitch and
Rice, Mess:s. Becker and Cavanaugh, Repre-
sentatives from Minnesota a tix.Governor
Medary will accompany the expedition.
The House was not officially informed un-
til to-day of the passage of tile Kansas bill.
lhe Senate is not IN session.
HoUsE.-The House proceeded to the con-
sideratiOn of the report of the special COM
mittec in the M,ttesOn case, which conclude
with a resolution that it is ineXpediant to
take further action in regard to the resolu-
ton Tor bis expulsion.
Mr. Seward Of Ga., argued in favor of the
views contained in the report. The House
has by tue Constitution, power to punish
member for dsorder;y conduct, and by a vote
# two-thirds may expel member, but II
was never designed that charge shoild be
revived at a subsequent Congress, because
there is no power to limit or restrict the sove-
regnty Of the people IN the choice of thei
representatives.

Lecompton In the Senate-What Does

heralded as az the Administration triumph

MUTToN US, PoRK.--Physicians recon-.
mend mutton as the most holesome meat,
the easiest digesIed, and best suited to in-
valids, while pork, as everybody knows,
is the most unhealthy flesh eaten. In
England mutton is favorite dish, and
we apprehend it is to this, rather than to
roast beef, that the Euglishman owes his
robust health, and rosy complexion. Our
people eat too much pork, and too little
mutton. And yet, as contemporary well
remarks. "mu,lon can be procured pound
for pound at less than half the price Of
pork yields more nourishment when ca
ten, and keeping sheep does not exhaust
a farm to the extent that feeding hogs
does" We should like to see in the pa
