one acre would buy two. Many farmers have
already more arabic land than they can tll
TO advantage Land redeemed from slough
would not pay for tscIf'iu many ycarf.
But although general introduction Of
draining would not be wise, There ave many
cases in which, TO a limited extent. il should
be practiccd. Land, lying near 20 ciucs are
sufficiently valuable, and the market for far
ming products sure enough, TO justify the re-.
claiming Of wet land. On small farms Of
forty and eighty acres, Gurrouudcd los high

MLssRs. EDToRs: | notice in your issue
of the 2Gth inst, under the head Of locals
from Barnet some remarks which are rath-
cr disparaging to the moral habits Of the cit
izens Of this town. As one Of those citizens
and proud of being such, l feel boundto re-
pei the insinuation, and to assert, and when
/ assert, l challenge contradiction, that there
are few towns in New England, Of equal pop
ulaton, where the people are more constant
attendants upon public worship than in this
same town of Barnet. In some localities the
habit is almost universal. This village num-
hers over fifty families, and all but two of
this number regularly attend church upon
the Sabbath. In the interior of the town it
is considered as disgraccfm for person TO
remain from church without good cause Bar
net village is at present without regular
preaching, yet think her citizens ought not
to be censurcd and taunted for what nearly
all feel to be misfortune, "fta yustitia
,.iidt caiim." Z.

Hating Republicans,
Can it bs possible, Mr.. DoxSEILY, tina.
you advise Foreign Born Citizens" to
support party who do not recognize the
rights OF - Foreign Born Citizens" even
after they throw Of their allegiance TO their
native country, and become American cit
mns-a party which on every occasion pro
scribes foreigners, and even seeks TO deprive
them Of rights guaranteed by the Consti,u-
ton Of the United States TO every Citizen
party which on all occasions, eIevates the
negro to a superior place 10 the social state,
and insists on rights for the negro not guar
anteed by the laws Of the country Could
you not, Mr.. DoSsErLY, address one Of your
very interesting letters to the Foreign
Born Citizens OF Massachusetts, or Rhode
Island, or any or all of the New England
States. The Foreign Born Citizens" Of
these States would undoubtedly respond to
your call-even as they will in Minnesota in
October.
Would it not look better for yourself, Mr..
DosSELLY, TO return to your old love, the
Democratic party, rather than act as stool
pigeon for those who, you must know, hate
your Irish antecedents, and, il understand
rightly, your Catholic procivities.
You surely would not ask " Foreign Born
Citizens = to support party who hate them
and particularly the Irish portion Of our
" Foreign Born citizens" There are many
OF that class, Mr.. DoSSnLY, in Dakota
county--men who heretofore have respected
you, "a u man who would not deceive them 4;
but the Disunionist Republican party now
claims your services, and you well know
Irisbmen never sympathize with traitors.
speak not for the whole class, but for
myself alone, IA one Of the Foreign Born
DO not address your long letters to the
Irish portion OF our citizens, for they viii fall
.tiIl-born to the ground, and deprive you of
that support in the coming campaign, the
possession Of which, | understand, you boast
ed Of to the leaders Of your party to secure
your domination. Allow me to say to you
tina, the Foreign Born in this county
will not he guided by what they term de.
setter They are not Particular y fond OF
those who they think handle Blood money :
They have, too, holy horror for all .jem.
my O'IIriens " They have heard Of Ben.
EDrcr ARNOLD how he was courtcd and
iawned upon by British minions until he
contaminated his treason, when they left
him TO die in garnet. Those who are now
using you are equally treacherous, and they
will no, fail to sacrifice you on the first OPP
por,nni.y.
For your gratiication--if i, is any i
will state that the Foreign Born Of this
equity, to IL man, will give their votes to
the only national and conservative party
they know~~-rnE DEMoCRATIC Party
Respectfully your friend

!, de stf,'s oi me Pioneer ,a3 D,mn5at
! have just read letters numbered one.
two and three, by |. DoSxsLLy, ESD, in the
Hnnesotian, addressed 10 the Foreign Born
Citizens OF Minnesota. Why they are so
addressed canno. comprehend. Nor do
see what the writer aims at. unless it be to
inform the public that he has studied some
history, little geography, and great deal
Of Niger.
After wading through about eleven col.
nmns ol these letters. which intelligent
Foreign Born citizens" would hardly pro.
nouncc worthy of school.boys pen find
that at the end OF letter three be appeals d.
rec,ly 10 "thc aboring men of the Old
World : he tells them they are at the foot
OF the ladder all mankind are compelled to
climb, and then asks them
Which party will help them up. That
which stands committed to the cause Of the
south aud Slavery that which would reduce
