France appears to be at war, or very nearly So,
with the Empire of Morocco upon which territory
she has long cast eovetous eye. It's conquest lies
SC handy, at to keep her armies in activity and
extend her African doniniOns. The Commander-in-
Chief in Algeria has just received orders to betake
himself to the French frontier, that the new En-
peror is likely to succeed to precarious heritage.

"A LADY passing through Mobile, on her way from

ARRAY with Indians at st. Peter.

We learn that a drunken affray between
some white men and two Indians, occurred in
the suburbs of St. Peter, on Wednesday night
last. The Indians, it seems, came into town
with venison for sale, and having disposed of
it, went to one of those pestiferous hells where
"forty rod" fire water is vended on the sly
to the poor natives. Some difficulty occur
red between them, and two Irishmen, and
(sn-savs one of the LNdians> two whites t6Iis5Sw=
ed them, and one shot him with revolver
through the neck, while the other attacked his
companion with an axe. The Indian who was
shot was not expected to live; the other one
could not be found. 1t was supposed he had
been made way with. This was the state Of
affairs on Thursday morning when our inform
ant left. The white men, We presume, have
been arrested.

Senator Pearce Not the Man.

Senator Pearce, of Maryland, has written
a letter to Hon. Thomas Corwin in regard to
the report that he had won $ls0,OOO at faro
in Washington. Mr.. Pearce writes =" A
friend tells me that am indebted to you for
the contradiction of a scandal, which l should
be very unwilling to have generally believed,
and which, strangely enough, got into one Of
your Ohio papers. refer to the story OF my
winning $3.50, 900 at gaming house in Wash
ington. You were right in denying the state
ment. l never lost or won 81 in any gaming
house whatever. Inever spoke to Mr.. Pen
deton in my life, and never was inside any
gambling house in Washington. look upon
such places as the gates of hell, and eschew
them everywhere" The Lafayette Journal,
in which the report first appeared, on the au-
thority of an ex-member Of Congress, now
says that it is ''in receipt of note from the
gentlemen on whose authority the statement
was made, in which he says that he was en-
tirely mistaken about it, and that the Sena-
tor who was reputed to have won the money
was another person, whose name he furnish
ed us, but which we forbear making public.
This renders the vindication of Senator Pearce
against the charge complete

An Ocean Steamer Saved.

The Indian Empire, whose loss was feared,
but whose safe arrival is chronicled in the lat
est foreign news, was twenty-four days be-
tween Halifax and the coast of Ireland. She
experienced head winds amounting to almost
hurricane, during nearly the whole voyage.
She steamed thirteen days, and then finding
her coal getting low, lay to seven days wait
ing for lull of wind. When the lull came
she started again, and when within twenty
five miles of the Galway coast, was met by
such furious head wind that she was driv-
en- 100 miles away again westward. She fin
ally made the harbor of Broadhaven on the
coast of Mayo, much to the joy and gratitude
of all on board.

Minnesosa is Not Bankrupt.

- There SCENE TO- be . very strange effortno
being put forth to convince the world that Min
nesota is bankrupt, in consequence OF her
railroad and bank policy. Now, although we
honestly and sincerely believe that our neigh
Dor wiM regret the adoption efthe line Of State
policy she has chosen, and although we hope
and trust that our own State may not follow
in her footsteps, still it is both unjust and un-
true to say that Minnesota is bankrupt
No such State as Minnesota can ever be-
come bankrupt. Her rich soil, her abundant
water power, her exhaustless forests Of pine
and other timber, are wealth of themselves
that in the hands of her intelligent population
will preserve the State from bankruptcy.
No State which possesses naturally such
immense recuperative powers as Minnesota
can become bankrupt, for with the wealth OF
production and manufacture of which the
State is capable, nothing but a s0hoIes0n'e
change in legislative and administrative pol'-
cy will be required at any time to restore her
to credit. >.
We believe her railroad loan and her inju-
dicious banking system piU be deeply regret
ted By her people, but to say that the State is
bankrupt is to utter palpable nonsense.-Du'
buqus Erpress and Herald.

Jefferson and Seward.

! -L.H,sv,. was quite as much of " fanatic
as Seward on the slavery question, though it
requires the advanced civilization of the last
half of the nineteenth century to detect the
fact. Singulary similar to Mr.. Stewards idea
of the incompatibility of slavery and freedom
in this country, as developed in his Rochester
speech, and now forming the staple Of demo-
cratic capital against the Republicans, are
these views from Mr. Jefferson's letters -
"Nothing is more certainly written in the
book Of fate, than that these people are to be
free; nor is it less certain that the two races,
equally free, cannot live in the same govern
ment. Nature, habit, opinion have drawn in
delible lines of distinction between them. 1t
is still in our power to direct the process of
emancipation and deportation peaceably, and
in such slow degree as that the evil will wear
off insensibly, and their place be, pari passu,
filled up with free white laborers. If, on the
contrary, it is left to force itself on, human
nature must shuddcr at the prospects held
up"
Saint Paul weekly Minnesotian., 1859-01-01
ssThe Constitution Subverted.H
To the Editors of the Minnesotidn:

Allow me to add respecting the Legislative
usurpation of last winter, that sincerely re-
joice in the design you announced of defying
this violation of the first principles of repub-
lican government. Both the duty and the
honor of the Republican party demand it.
We cannot avoid the issue-make it bold and
direct, and we need not fear the result
My principal object in writing will have
been accomplished if the attention of the peo-
pie has been more fully called to the subject,
and the wrong more clearly perceived. The
Republican party and press-and none more
effectively than the MINNEsoTIAN-took the
right ground, but the fear was entertained
that the matter was not sufficiently "kept be-
fore the people,"
AS to the appointment of Senator by the
Governor, experience shows that it matters
little what law or constitution requires, if the
slave party have the power Of numbers" to
secure party object, either here Or at Wash
ington. w.
