From the st. Jose ph Journal, March 81.
Startling from Ka nSas-TSOW at
HHOiIOEA, Calhoun County.

On the 21st inst, row occurred at a
county convention, in Holtnn, the county
seat OF Calhoun county, K T., between
the Republicans OH one side, and Free
State men and Democrats on The other. A
pro-slavery man named Cole was first at
lacked, when a regular melee ensued,
in which pistols. knives and clubs were
freely used. The Republicans rushed to
house near by. which is said to have
contained about sixty Sharp's rifles, and
commenced firing on their oppo-ents, who
were forced 20 beat a retreat.
Three ofIhe wounded, Messrs. Chisam,
Wilcox and B. Hail, arrived in Weston,
Platte Co., where they formerly resided,
on Monday last, having been driven away
from their homes in Kansas, leaving their
families behind them.
Chisam was shot, ball lodging in the
right side Of his head, near the temple.
Hall was shot in the right arm, breaking
the bone. and SO completely sh vering the
arm as TO require amputation. He was
left at Holton, and IS not expected to live.
Wilcox was shot i'll the face, ball taking
effect left side of the nose, and lodging in
his right cheek-face very much swollen;
ball not extracted.
B. Hall and others were beaten across
the head with clubs aad gun. barrels
breaking Mr.. Halls nose.

Clue To the Cuban Purchase
Movement

One OF the real objects of the recent
abortive effort for the acquisition of the
Island of Cuba, is unwittingly developed
in the following extract from the Wash
ing.on correspondence of the Charleston
Mercury" which we find in the "Caro-
lima Spartan" of FEB. 3, 1859:
"Amoag politicians, the acquisition of
Cuba is the absorbing topic of converse
ton. 1t is evident Mr.. Buchanan has pur-
capital. and intends to make it the lever
by which to raise the Democratic party out
of the slough of despair into which the
jec: peculiarly attractive to the people of
the North, who, while they are fondly de-
voted to free negroes are still more ar
dent in their love of free sugar, and will
90 for Cuba without slavery. # anything
pre:ent comp er;on of ofdirs, Cuba IS to
tidl Campaign IF 1860, and is tie only
cratic President"
The above statement, coming as it does
from An Administration paper, must, of
course, be received as the words OF one
speaking by authority" and as such, we
commend it 10 the PROFESSIONALLY the
Democrats-of Meigs county. They can
thus see at glance the only clever" which
is "Iikely to give us Democratic Presi-
dent" and, although the "thirty- million
bill'' fulcrum, upon which it was to rest,
has gone under, and left the redoubtable
u. B." in the unfortunate condition the
ancient Philosopher, Archimides. when he
would have moved the world, that is, with
out place 20 stand upon, still. in certain
localities. it may not be wholly unavaila
BILE. Especially would this be the case
should Jeemes see fit, in default of the
passage of the corruption Jand measure
to continue the periodical "black mail
levey, which Of late contributes so largely
ito the success of the Democratic party
Under such circum stances, the reservation
of this question "for political purposes, ,
may very slightly ease the fall of the party
in power, although it can never save it.
As much as the people OF the free States
prefer "free sugar" to "free niggers," they
would most certainly forego the pleasure o
both, rather than sustain an Administra
tion, which has falsifed every pledge upol
which it was elected, beside involving th,
nation in less than two years, and in tim'
of profound peace, in \ debt of sirty mil

VIM. d. MORGAN,

Same date and letter.
p. S.-Mr. Breslin assures me, as al
ready stated, that the deficit WILL in no
contingency, exceed one hundred thousand
dollars. Should this reasonable anticipa-
ton prove fallacious, and there be an
actual deficit greater than the surplus re-
deInption fund in your hands, the bonds
purchased from Mr.. Astor ($40,oo0)
might be used as an bypothecation for ad-
ditional funds.
1t is unnecessary to follow these worthy
officials through the various shifts to
which they subsequently, resorted to keep
this important fact from the public, and to
shield Bresln. 1t is charitable to suppose
that they, (and Gibson also, on receiving
this legacy in confidence from his prede-
cessor) hoped, for time, to get out of the
difficulty without an exposure. These
three officials, to great extent, stand on
similar footing of completely, and
should be included under the same gene
raj censure for the; unwise, if not dishon-
est, cencealment Of what so intimately con-
Germs the welfare of the State.
Where are those Legislative resolutions,
which require that Morgan and Edgerton
shall be put upon the stand. and legally
examined as to their knowledge of this
business? Let us see what member OF
the Legislature will oppose such an at
tempt to get at the facts which are sedu-
lously covered over, and smothered by the
Report, which these very men were alb
surdly selected to make. Let every Of
fetal parsonage concerned in this case be
held to his accountability. regardless ol
parties or persons, The Report does not
satisfy intelligent men anywhere. 1t does
not go to the root of the matter. 1t is moi
impartial or thorough. In such hands,
that was hardly to be expected. But, un-
der the Overwhelming proof, of which we
have only given specimen above, it IL
manifest that the investigators themselves
will have, sooner or liter, to undergo a
searching investigation.

A New Dodge for a Cheap Victory.

Mr.. Brisbin having returned from his en-
counter with Mr.. Cole, evidently somewhat
crest-fallen, to revive his dropping reputation,
the Pioneer yesterday proposed to Mr.. Cole
public discussion here in St. Paul between him
and Mr.. Brisbin. The idea of this proposition
is, as we infer from the tenor of the Roneer's
language, that as Mr.. Cole beat Mr.. Brisbin
when fighting him at his own home, that Rriz
might succeed better if he had also an oppor-
tunity to crow upon his own dunghill here in
St. Paul. Perhaps so-only perhaps.
1t is possible, however, the Pioneers arti.
Gle was dictated by another idea-the idea
that Mr. Coles known engagements would
preclude his acceptance Of the offer, and thus
Bril- would have chance to crow cheaply
without the hazard of an actual encounter
We say "known engagements" for in Mr..
Coles public letter of August %, he distinctly
stated as follows
~ regret that prior to the appearance of Mr.
Brisbin's card, arrangements had been made
which leave only one aOeek at my disposal prior to
September Goth, after which time shall be spgag.
ed in the preparation and trial of my cases in the
District Court of my own County"
Thus it is clear Mr.. Brisbin k'aeao before
hand that the week just spent by him and
Mr.. Cole in debate together, would be the
sole time at has disposal free from other en-
gagements
Yet, knowing this, the beaten boaster seeks
to gain cheap victory by renewing a chal,
lenge Mr. Coles engagements would notori-
ously preclude his accepting!
This may be Mr.. Brisbins notion of fair
ness, but it is not the common idea of that

A Democratic Knock Down.

The County Convention at Pine Bend in
Dakota County was held on Saturday. A
Legislative ticket was nominated, and apor-
ton of the County ticket, when a promis
cuous fight and general knock down took
place. 1t was caused we understand, by the
dissatisfaction resulting from the re-nomina-
ton Of the VIGOROUSLY incompetent and drunk
en- Devlin, the Irish Sheriff Of that county
It was generally understood that both Devil
and Phelan for Prosecuting Attorney were I'M
fairly nominated. Hence the row and breakup
without completing their nominations. Our
obese friend, O. 7. Hays, it was believed had
the inside track for the nomination of Judge
of Probate, but he left the Convention in a
hurry, declaring that his head and abdomen
were of more consequence to him than that
nomination.

Enthusiastic Public Reception of Carl
Schurz at Milwaukee.

On Monday evening last, the friends of
Carl Schurz rendered him very enthusiastic
reception at Market Square, Milwaukee. At
seven o'clock 81 guns were fred from the
Oneida Street bridge, and huge pyramid of
combustibles ignited in the Square. In a
short space of time there could not have been
less than four thousand people congregated in
front of the Wettstein After a serenade by
the band, Mr.. Schurz, accompanied by Gen.
Paine, appeared on the balcony. After the
cheering had subsidized, Gen. Paine made a
very appropriate reception speech, testifying
their appreciation of his services as member
of the Republican Party. He said in conclu-
ding:
eve bid you God speed in your intend
ed labors in Iowa and Minnesota, and wishing
your happiness in this life to be commensu-
rate with your devotion to justice and liberty,
we tender to you our highest regards
Mr.. Schurz then came forward and respond
ed in an eloquent and noble speech of about
twenty minutes in length, which was enthu-
siastically applauded. The meeting was af-
forwards addressed by other speakers.
