THE ADMINISTRATION FLooRED IN MINNESOTA When Minnesota was admitted last winter, her two Senators drew lots for the long and short terms. To the great Satisfaction of the Administration Mr. Rice, who was believed to support Lecompton drew the long term. and Gen. Shields, who was known to sympathisc with Douglas the short term
 The latter was hardly settled in his seat. before the Administration determined to oust him from it. Intrigues were commenced at St. Paul. and by the usual brihes, threats and cajoery, Mir. Buchanan's friends succeeded in getting resolution through the State Senate, fixing Wednesday last for the election , of a successor to Gen. Shields
 In the Lower House matters resulted differently Indignant at the attempted interference. the House gave practical evidence of its determination to regulate it's domestic affairs in it's own way" by voting to indefinitely postpone the election. The Republicans and Anti -Lecompton Democrats united giving 43 votes for the posponement, while the Ad- minssration could muster but 25 against it.
 The victory was then clnched by the adoption o the following resolution by similar vote:
 Resolced, That the course pursued ny men bers ot the present Legislature tu enforce the elecnon of Senator Of the United Siacs at the present session to Ill seal occupied by General SHIELDS, for the pnr pose 'of advancing corrupt designs and to elect Le compton Scnetor, as demonstration against STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS, aud to conciliae the favors of The Ma tonat Administration, is alke vol laiion of the se ments of Minnesota and obnoxious to the honor, in- terest and dignity of the State.
