business Improvement East.

a letter from leading house in Wall
street, New York, to w. c. GRAY, Esq, of
this city, discourses thus upon the prospects
for improvement in business throughout the
country:
Here, though business has improved some,
yet it is only shadow of what has been done
heretofore at this season of the year, and we
now expect to go through dull winter,
though anticipating a large increase in the
spring, with great activity before the closing
Of the year; in fact there are some who pre-
diet that 1859 will be the commencement Of a
series Of years of the greatest prosperity this
country has ever enjoyed.
"The opening of the ports of China to the
commerce and productions Of the world, in
creasing the same, and therefore stopping the
shipments of silver coin to China for payment
of her produce, the constant flow Of gold from
California and Australia to which will soon
be added Frazer River Territories, the gcner-
al economy practisod by the country this year,
saving money, lessenin9 expenses, getting out
OF debt, and the vast accumulation Of capital
at the great commercial ccntcrs Of the world,
are al reasons given for the bright future to
those who are prepared to take advantage
Of it."

More Germans Waking Up.

a mass meeting Of Germans numbering
about eighteen hundred, was heldin the Vollls
Garten, Bowery, New York, few evenings
since, to mark out for themselves a more dis
tinct political course. Excellent speeches We're
made by prominent German citizns, bearing
severely upon the iniquity Of the Administra-
ton. Mr.. GUsTAvE STRIVE said, at the close
of a very able speech" I denounce tie Don-
ocrats as the enemies Of Freedom, the support
ers Of Slarery, the foes Of Free Labor, the
treacAerous friends Of the Eoreiyner, mhose aid
they seek only to betray him !" This was re-
ceived with a thunder of long continued ap-
plause, and VICTOR PELE followed in speech
of the same sentiment.

The people of Moline, Illinois, amused them
selves one day last week with witnessing a
foot race between members Of . certain Dr.
Lewis class in gymnastics. About twenty
men, belonging to the class, tried their wind
and speed The prize, consisting of a set Of
gold bosom studs, was awarded to CHAs. S.
WOOD. On the urday..following a more
exciting race came Off betwcen.the Gymnastic
Club of Moline and the Club of Rock Island
Six Of the swiftest runners were on each side,
and the race occasioned some excitement.
Full two hundred people from Moline and
Rock Island, were on the ground to witness
the performance. The laurel Of victory was
given to the Moline Club, Mr.. CYEUs HART
EEL being decided the ilectest.

E;ic Second Ward Election ReSurns-..
An Explanation Due to the Public.

We had hoped that with the absence of Nc
GRoRrY and kIrTsoN from the election board,
the transcript Of the Second Ward election
poll would thereafter show on honest record.
There are, however, discr> yancies in the
return Of votes made from that Ward of the
some explanation from the gentlemen who
were election officers of the poll on that occa
sion.
The Board was constituted Of three Demo-
Gratis as Jnlges, viz: AID. PATRICK O'GoR-
NAN. f. +. SrRoTHER, a Justice of the Peace,
and J. CoSNEE, which Judges appointed W.
H. ToMPKINs ard W. H. COLLINS to act as
Clerks
The points of objection urged to this Board
and it, proceedings are, seyerally, these:
1t. Prima 5:teis the Election Board was a
bad one, as the Judges were all of the same
party; and proposition previous to the OPEN
ing of tn polls, to allow a Republican of
much eXpelie. c on Election Boards, to serve
IS Judge, was reiused-argung, as some
think, d foregone conclusion to not have fair
vote.
ID. During election day, in some cases
where illegal voters were challenged the Judg-
es. contrary to law, refused or neglected to
pav any attention to the challenge or to put
the test to the voter, but received his vote.
Sd. The ballot box used was one Of large
dimensions. and during the progress Of the
election the Ill thereof was not fastened OF
nailed down, but could he slipped aside, on
or off, 1T pleasure.
4th There is a discrepancy between the
tally lists and the return of notes.-the latter
giving every man Oh the Democratic ticket
from ten to twenty more votes than the for
mer paper counts for them; while Messrs.
BRANCH and MOBILES, two of the opposition
independent candidates. are allowed on the
return five votes less each than the tally paper
shows them to have received.
9th. The entire vote cast on county Au-
ditor, for both candidates, foots up 593 on the
return; while the aggregate of votes cast in
the Ward, only numbers, according to the
poll list, 514 names, showing a discrepancy
of nineteen more votes rcturoed than appears
by the poll list there were roters,
Now, we do not doubt but the discrepan-
cics mentioned can be satisfactorily explained
and they should be at once. There is ner-
vous feeling in this community to repress
election frauds in the future; and the majority
OF the officers of the Second Ward election
poll, owe it to the reputation they may have
heretofore borne, Of being honest men, to show
to the community that criminal intention had
nothing to do with these palpabIe errors and
omissions and discrepancies.

What Is the News from Pembina9

"A friend, yesterday from the interior, who
stepped into our sanctum to learn the election
news generally, amongst other questions hap
pened to ask us quite innocently, whats the
news from Pembina; have you any returns
of the election held for member of the House
in that District ?"
Turning around to him in huge astonish-
ment we inquired in turn, "What! do you
not know that elections are neoer held in that
District that the practice up there is, for
two or three Indian Traders, or two or three
federal ce-holders-either Indian Agents
or Registers of Land Offices-to get together
in a private room-lock themselves in, say in
in SAM ABBE's trading house at Crow Wing
and then to deliberately forge all the neces-
sary papers-including poll books, with the
names of fictitious Judges and Clerks OF cleo
tons, swearing to fictitious oaths, signed to
them-with the fictitious names OF fictitious
voters inscribed upon them-and with returns
of fictitious votes never cast-all, OF course,
for the Democratic ticket? And in this man
ner, without the trouble of holding elections,
the most splendid Democratic victories are
invariably secured, and District and State
tickets are elected just to suit the views OF the
players in this game of fraud and crime ?"
Our friend begged pardon for having been
so unsophisticated- he was from South
ern Minnesota, and he wasn't thoroughly
booked up in the peculiar Democratic tactics
of the far Northern Wildcat and Moccasin
Districts of the State.
We remarked in reply that we rather
thought he WASN'T" but that if he required
further information touching those tactics, he
could apply for it to Mr.. SHELLEY at the Execu-
tive chamber in the capital-which honorable
! O. individual, having been an accessory to SIM
| liar .torgeries in that aforesaid Pembina Dis
trict-through which torgories alone he holds
his present oiiice-was therefore the more
competent man in the State to explain in a
satisfactory manner how Democratic MAORI
ties could be returned for Democratic tickets
in precincts not existing anywhere only III
name, acithout q single vote being cast thereto,
aohaterer
Mr.. SHELLEY was thoroughly booked on these
points, and doubtless would cheerfully ex-
plain the entire m0tlus operand;!

Important to Settlers on the fIaIC-Breed
Reserve.

A despatch from Washington of October
10th, in the New York Tribune, sets forth
that i" The General Land Office has decided
that, by the law relating to prescriptions up
on half-breeds' tracts, settler upon techni-
cal quarter section in an occupant of the
whole of it, and will take the whole, although
improvements may cover a part only but a
settlement upon part only, with view to
holding in other quarter sections, must be
clearly shown, and intention notified, other
wise subsequent location of scrip will hold the
subdivisions not improved on or not notified
for presumption"
This is a little better for the settlers on
the Half Breed Reserve at Lake Pepin than
the first report made it.
The same despatch says, as follows:
"The General Land Office, or protest
filed in the name of the School Commissioners
Of Wabashaw County, Minnesota, against
pre-emption and location being allowed upon
sections 1G and 36, within the Sioux Half
breed Reservation, has decided that they have
never been appropriated for school purposes,
and are therefore subject to presumption, the
same as other lands"

South Carolina Politics.

Ali the present members Of the House o.
Representatives from South Carolina, are re-
elected, with the exception Of Speaker ORR
who declined running. The new members
Gall Democrats and chosen without opposi
tion,) are JOHN Mcqueen, w. Porcher Milks
Lawrence NJ. Kett, Millege l.. Bonham, John
d. Ashmore and William w. Boyce.
This is the State represented in the .. S
Senate by Gov. Hammond, who holds that the
mechanics and labors " of the North arc a
IS servile class, unfit for self-goycrnment," and
that Slavery Is the natural and normal con-
dition of the laboring man-white or black. y
Such sentiments are eminently characteristic

Nur state Election.

Tho of;,;a, returns come in but .slowly';r3and
We are unable as vet TO state. the exact COM
plexion of the legislature.
7, fine Carver and Wright district, there is
no doub, of the election of +. A. REM, Re
publican. by about 60 majority. In list OF
members elected. given day or two since by
the Pioneer, his Democratic opponent, MuEhL-
BURG, was claimed as successful.
IL the Lake Superior district it appears, al
ter all, that Ely, Republican, is not elected;
but WALSH, the Independent shields Demo-
crat," who beats CULVER, the regular mecca
sin candidate handsomely.
Its now said 70 be doubtful whether even
one Democrat is elected III the Blue Earth and
lie Seuer district; but that all three are Re-
pubhcans.
From the Dodge and Mower district, we
are still without any definite returns beyond
the fact that EDGERroN one of the Democrat
ic nominees for the Senate is certainly elected.
The other Senator and three members of the
House are still in doubt
We can announce TO our readers positively,
however, that the Republicans are certain of
clear grit party majority of tlco in the House,
even chasing those two Independent Demo-
Gratis who were elected by the Republicans of
the Stearns district, with the moccasin side !;
a classification which, we are assured, does
them great injustice.
The Republican majority in the House may
yet reach as high as ten or tn,lce.,
The report is that we have positively elect
ed two Republicans in the Dodge and Mower
District, ana this we think is probable and
if the fact. would make our majority sir in the
House. Add to this MCCLURE, of Stearns
who we klor is Republican, though called
an Independent Democrat, and the reliable
Republican majority is oight-with a chance
for another one in Blue Earth, which would
raise oul majority to ten. In this calculation
We concede, for the present, to the Moccasins,
WOOD Of Sank Rapids, WALSH of Superior,
McINTYRE of Houston, and BRIsBIN and COR
MAN of St. Paul.
In the Senate, the Democrats have three
majority, certain, provided they can call JOE
RoLErTE, of Dakota Territory, a certainty.
Counting in with the Moccasins ELI ROBIN
son, of Hastings, whom the Pioneer, before
the election, StigmatiZed as bolter," the
Democratic majority would be fire; and if
they have carried the other Senator in Dodge
and Mower, it viii be seen.
From all of which it viii be gathered that
the political majority and the Legislature on
joint ballot, is still in glorious state of uncer
tainty. This only is sure, that the Republi
cans have the House and the Democrats the
Senate.
p. S.-Since the above was written, we
have received the Mantorville Express, giving
the result in the Mower and Dodge District,
showing the election of one Democratic and
one Republican Senator, and two Republican
and one Democratic Representatives. The
Democratic majority in the Senate, therefore,
cannot possibly be more than .foe, while the
Republican majority in the House cannot pos
Aibly be less than sir

From Kansas-.Dcnver's Resignation
His Probable Successor, &C.
of the Cincinnati Gazette.


LAWRENCE, Kansas, Oct. 1.
Tomorrow the resignation of John w. Den
yer takes effect, and for the sixth time during
the four years that our Territorial Government
has had an existence, the GubcrnatOrial office
has become vacant. During Denvers admin
istlation he has been fortunate enough to give
general satisfaction to the people, with the ex-
ception of his acts during the session of the
Territorial Legislature, when he attempted to
defeat several important bills. His prompt ac-
ton in Southern Kansas, the removal of OBJ
noxious county offices, and the appointment
of successors indicated as the choice of the
people during the difficulties in Linn and
Bourbon counties, is worthy OF c0mmenda-
ton.
Spcculations are rife as to who his success
sor will be- In Lcavenworth it is confidently
| asserted that Andrew isaacs will be the man.
In 1884 he received from President Pierce
the appointment for four years as United
States District Attorney, which he continued
to hold until the expiration of his commission,
when he was succeeded by William Weer.
Isaacs was for time threatened with re-
moval from Office by the Administration for
being implicated with Governor Reedcr and
Judge Elmore in the the celebrated Kaw
HalfBreed Land Speculation" but for some
unexplained cause or other he was not decap-
itated, but allowed to retain the office, in
which he gave ample assurance OF his entire
subserviency to the Slave Ogarchy which la
bored so theoretically to enslaye our Territory.
Isaacs is from Louisiana-a rabid pro-
slavery man for q time; now he makes pre-
tensions of being "Dcmocratc Free State
man." anxiously desiring to have Kansas a
Free Democratic State, and himself elected
United States Senator. 1t is expected that
the Democrats will support him for that office,
and with the Govenorship of the Territory
it is thought he will be able to make rapid
strides toward that position.
During the wars which have from time to
time annoyed the people of Kansas, Isaacs
was never leader with the pro-slavery party;
never took prominent part in the difficulties
The Minneola men will labor arduously for
the appointment of Isaacs, as he is under
stood to have made pledges to them of his will
lingncss to do all he can TO secure the location
of the capital at Minneola.
In Atchison County the Republican ticket
for three members Of the Legislature was de-
feated, by the election Of conservative men,
In Doniphan County the Republicans elected
their five members. In Linn the Democrats
succeeded in clecting their two candidates
over the Republicans. In the House the
Democrats will have about one-fourth OF the
members, and the Republicans the remainder.

afa nOus Fraud on the BaIlOt-BOX in
Fillmore County!

We have information from Preston, the
county seat of Fillmore, that in the Land
Office town of Chatfield the most infa-
NOUS frauds upon the bal'ot-box in that pre-
cinct have just come to light. Republican
vot>s appear to have been abstracted from
the ballot-box; either before or else after it
was deposited in the keeping of the Chatfield
land officers, frauds sufficient to overcome the
undoubted majority cast for the Republican
ticket
The Republican voters of Chatfield got to-
gether and made individual affidavits of hay
ing voted the Republican ticket in greater
numbers by over thirty votes than the Chat
field Land Office return conceded to them
On representation of these facts to the
Canvassing Board, they unhesitatingly threw
out the vote of Chatiield precinct, and have
given the certificates of election to the two
Republican Senators and six Republican
members.
When will the Democratic leaders cease to
perpetrate these gross frauds on the ballot
box?
