GREAT IMPROVEMENT
COOKING STOVES +!
COnSumDii0n OF Smoke 4 Gas & Saving of FDell

Consumption Of Smoke 4 Gas Il Saving of FncI
HNHE subscriber takes pleasure in offering to
his customers Patented Gas-burnng
Cooking Stove, undoubtedly the best stove made.
IL is we'll known that all infammabIe matter
requires a certain amount of air to support COM
bustion, and if the supply is insufficient it is
impossible to produce flame. The heat of
the fire, in ordinary cooking stoves, decomposes
the fuel and as all the fresh air is admtt ed un-
der the CRATE, its oxygen is exhausted before it
has passed through the fire chamber. The close
hues at the top of the stove then act as an ex-
tinguisher, tending to put out the fire instead of
assisting the combustion. large portion of
the fuel, therefore, passes off in the shape of
smoke, clogging up the flues of the stove
to impede the draft and interfere with the ba-
king,-or of invisible gas which combines with
the lime and so destroys the mortar of the
chimneys, oosening the bricks, and exposing
the dwellings to the danger Of fire.
The introduction of an additional supply Of
cold air would cool the gas below the gniting
temperature, but by the proper application
above the fire Of air previously heated to tenn
perature of several hundred degrees (Which is
one of the prominent features Of the patent)
the gases are inhamed in numerous jets, and
their combustion is sufficient TO heat the oven,
even If the draft through the fire chamber is
entirely closed. In addition to the ordinary di-
rect Graft under the CRATE and through the fire
chamber, the gas-burner has an additional draft
through the top plates, which is of itself suffi-
cient TO maintain combustion. The upper draft
not only consumes the gases, but IT helps to
strengthen and preserve the centre pieces which
are most exposed to the direct action of the
fire, and which made double instead OF the
usual single plates. BY means of this draft
alone, all the operations of cooking can be car
ried on when the fuel is but partially ignited,
and the fuel consequently burns more slowly
and more economically. A sufficient evidence
of the effect OF the gases in heating the oven is
found in the fact that the oven will be ready
for baking even before the fire ia thoroughly
kndled, and much sooner than in any other.
There is scarcely a doubt that before long
the Gas-burning Cooking Stoves will supercede
all others. The operation is so perfect and its
consumption Of fuel small in comparison
with other cooking stoves, and its heat so easily
regulated, (burning more or less as desired,)
that every one who uses one Of these stoves will
have nothing else. For sale by

Our Senators in Congress.

Especial attention should be paid by our
readers to Washington letter in another COL
umn, from the Chicago Tribune. Itindicates
that they have at last got the measure OF the
RIcEs at Washington city; and that their
tricks won't go down as easily as they used
to. The somerset made by HENRY Nj. RICE
on the Lecompton question is no longer mat
ter for doubt it is degrading and disgrace
full, but quite characteristic. The reports are
that Gen. SHIELDS has taken the same Gems
urable course but there are some reports ex-
tant to the contrary of this, aud it is as well
to suspend opinions on the fact of SHIELDS
completely with RICE in ignoring previously
expressed principles, and in betraying friends
here and at Washington until we can hear
further the General may be and doubtless
is weak man but having been soldier
and never an old style Indian trader, we are
10th to believe him. also guilty of such dis
honorable conduct.

effort will be made to vote down the pro-
proposed amendment to the State Constitu-

We call upon the People in every neigh
borhocd, in every county, to rally immedi-
ately and RGANIZE for the contest
against the monster bill.

The six members of the Legislature from

seem, to "crush out" the Minnesotian on ac-
count of its opposition to the $4,000, 1000

to the editor tie usual argument of very mar
row minds-the terrifying order to "Stop

SENATE.-The Senate was called to or

prayer.
The first business was

A bill to incorporate the town of Kasota.
A memorial to the President IN relation to
the sale of Pine Lands.
An Act to establish State Agricultural
College.
An Act to incorporate the town Of Var

An Act to attach certain counties to other

An Act to prevent trespass upon State,

An Act to provide for the Salaries of GER

COMMITTEE OF WHOLE.
The Senate, on motion of Mr.. VAN
ETTEN, resolved itself into Committee of
Whole, to take up House Bill l68, An Act
for the establishment of an Agricultural Col
lege.
Mr.. SKINNER in the Chair.
The bill was read over, and when finished,
Mr.. BATES moved that when the Com
mlttee rise, they report it back, recommend
ing It's passage.
Mr.. HUDSON wanted to know something
more about the bill. Is the College to be
located in the proper place Do the people
of the State want such an institution, and do
their wants demand it. He did not think it
was needed or that the State had right to
pass such bill
MIR. BATES said it was of great necessity.
A section OF land was to be set apart for its
use Situated as we are, young State,
looking to agriculture as great sour, of
our future wealth and greatness, he viewed
with favor all efforts to foster and promote
its practice, and aid it's ends
Mr.. HULL did not want to see an Agri-
cultural College just yet. He was farmer
himself, and he wanted to see a good agricul-
tural system established He agreed that
much OF our prosperity must depen. on hav-
ing it well understood. But if the bill was
to establish Normal School to instruct
teachers for our Common Schools. he would
give it more hearty support. He did not,
however, give his concurrence for the estab-
lishment Of mere scientific Agricultural
College.
Mr.. VAN ETTEN said he had no doubt
that it was proper to act apart a School Sec
ton to found an Agricultural School. At
present, it vas good plan. 1t is true we are
young yet, but even while Territory on.y 8

SEN NATE.-Th0 Senate was called to Or
at the usual hour.
The Chaplain being absent, the prayer was
dispensed with.
THE STiLLwATER PRISON.
An Executive communication was received,
relative to tie State Penitentiary, at Still
water, accompanied by some correspondence
showing the outrageous state of the same,
and stating that the late Warden refuses to
give up the buildings, unless paid for some
improvements on IL &c.
Mr.. COWAN moved that it be laid on
the table and printed, and made the special
order for Tuesday next. He would be one
to take up the matter then, and investigate,
the outrageous manner with which this insti-
luton had been conducted, which had made
it an outrage on the name of the State
The Warden was the autocrat,-acorse than
an autocrat, who could discharge prisoners at
will, and finally claim that he, not the State
owned the Penitt ntiary. Thus this corrupt
institution has set at naught and rendered
useless legislation, for the protection of socic-
ty, and good ordes. Sir, we will investigate
these matters, and | hope we will have
chance by having the bill made the special Or
der for that day.
Mr.. VAN ETTEN thought that it should
be referred to c Special Comm. ttee. He want
ed the matter over hauled too. There was
even no title to the swamp on which the
prison buildings were built, and he ever put
ting another dollars worth of work on the
place. No walls could be erected there any
hour, that would make the place secure.
After some further discussion, the question
ried, and the discussion ut tEo matter set for
for next Tuesday.
Some time Was then spent in o call of the
Senate.
THE LOAN BILL.
The Loan bill, as it passed the house, was
then taken up, and read.
The amendments were then taken up sena-
rately, and voted on.
The amendment made to the bill, was as
follows:
3d. Insert, after the word "credit," line
92, Provided, if any of the said companies,
shall, at any time, offer to pay the principal,
together with the interest that may then be
