Our Prospectus will be found on our
third page, and VIC ask the friends
of the freedom of the press and of the
princip pies there laid down, to aid us in
maintaining them. We feel that in our
advocacy of them in St. Cloud we have
been milder and more conservative than we
have ever before been in our character OF
writer for the Press. Wefeel, that except
our large share of human weakness, our
life has been such as to give no justcause
of offence to any.

Of their lands and in social advantages which
arise from the system of land in limited GUAM

The country around St. Cloud, west of the
Mississippi was purchased of the Indians in a
treaty made with them by Hon. Alexander
Ramsey and Luke Lea in 1852 and ratified by
the senate the same year. The Sioux had
owned the land from 1927 but had not occupied
it, and it was used rs hunting ground by the
Winnebagoes whose land reached within four
miles north Of St. Cloud. Their country was
coded to the United States by treaty began
with Commissioner Manypcny and concluded
at Washington in Feb 1856 and ratified by the
Senate March Sd of the same year. In May

MEssRs. EDITORS AS am every inch
Wing, | hope you will excuse me for
making few remarks in relation to card
written by augusta" in the last Spec
tator. He gives us strong advice, but from
its tenor, am inclined to look upon him
with suspicious eye, and therefore I pro-
test against "Augusta' playing the two
handed fiddle with us. We want no Ar
mold in our ranks,-we want true, firm
whigs-no half men Of any kind amongst
us. Let as have convention and nomi-
n ate our man, whoever he may be, and let
the democratic party do likewise. Then
let us run cur candidates with all our
might, and if we swim, let us swim togeth-
er, and if we sink, let us sink together, as
men true to their party ought to do. If
"Augusta" is Wing, he must have b cen
lately naesmerized, to have thrown him in
to such placid frame Of mind, SO as to be
willing to sacrifice his party to promot the
interest of some "pet" democrat. His
conscience must certainly have been asleep
when he penned the card above alluded to.
hope when the nsesmeric affection wears
of our wing friend, Augusta will give us
more wholesome advice in his next card,
and we will pardon the former one.
