Mention has seen made several times Of an
unlusky expedition made BY Deputy Marshal
Ds,tOn and slave catcher Jennings to the vii
laqe Of PaiDssville, last September, for the pur-
pose Of kidnapping eolorsd citizen of ths,
place. Yesterday afternoon Jennings, in evi
dsnce relative to his proceedings at Oberlin, in
search for the boy John, gave a short, but ex-
Cssdingly graphic history Of that transactiOn.--
He said that while at oberlip waiting to per.
ioct arrangements for The ca ture Of John, he
heard that boy who had run away from his
(Jenning's) farm in Kentucky, was stopping at
Erie, Taking Marshal Dayton with him he
made visit to that city, and there heard that
the fugitive was at Painesville. Accordingly
the precious pair went to Painssville and hunt
ed about for the boy
Tho people ofthe place getting wind of their
object, there was fright smart sprinkling'
Of darkies in commotion. In fact, JsnninPi
said that 'there were more niggers and aboIi-
tionista in that town than in any town ever
got into Il was worse than Oberlin." He
then saw a crowd gathering about the house in
which the two were, and "heard that they were
going to give US twenty minutes notice TO leave
town, and thought that was too hot place
for us" Being asked il they got ready to leave
IN twenty minutes, he laconiOally replied 1--WE
did that" he was not the man to be easily
scared, but no gladly returned to the village OI
Oberlin as a haven of rest after the "ShOot" that
he saw in the eyes of the Painsville yeOmanTy'
The inhab tants Of the pleasant village oi
Pansville are not the ones to allow their streets
to bo polluted with the presence of slave hunt
ers, as Jennings and Dayton found out

The Irrepressible Conflict Party.

The Republicans all over the North are
holding their heads very high and are grow
ing more and more firm in the back bone.
Their sole bond of union is the slavery
issue-war on the Standardization of
the acts of Congress relative to the Fugi-
tive Slave Law by Personal Liberty bills.
This fact was seen in the late New York
Convention. 1t is seen in the stand taken
by the party both in Vermont and in
Maine, where the platforms were as tho
roughly sectional as language could make
them such as completely ignore fifteen
States of this Union; and yet such plat
form has commanded even increased MAORI
ties both in Maine and Vermont. The
same policy is seen in the late address Of
the committee calling itself "National
Republican," which recognizes war on
shareholders and the South as the only bond
of union. The irrepressible conflict party of
the Opposition are overwhelmingly in the
ascendant.
Will the people of Minnesota, by voting for
WINDOW, the Know Nothing, and ALDR1cH,
the Repudiationist, sanction the "brutal
and bloody.manifesto" of the New York
Senator?

Hon. G.. A. Grow.

We direct attention to letter In another
column, from Hon. GALUsHA A. GROW, on
the subject of an article which appeared in
this journal some days since, on "The
Author of the Homestead Bill" We have
referred to the Congressional Globe for 1856,
as requested by Mr.. GROW, and find that, at
the first session of that Congress, February
81, 1856, he introduced Homestead bill,
and had it referred to the Committee of the
Whole on the State of the Union. The
Republicans had the control Of the House,
Mr.. N. p. BANKS being Speaker. But they
were so interested in "bleeding Kansas" at
that session, that they could give no thought
to ''free homes for the homeless" as they
now do, on the eve of Presidential cleo
ton, and the bill slumbered in committee
for over six months. II acas defeated august
4, 1856, and by the votes of. Republicans and
Southern KnoaO Noth,ngs, vho jointly had
control of the House. We thank the gentle
man for calling our attention to the matter !;
for his reference gives point to our position,
that so long as the Republicans could manu-
facture political capital out of Kansas and
the negro, they cared little for the interests
of the white man. Whether the bill intro
duced by Mr.. Grow in 1856, is similar to
that of Mr.. KELLY's, which passed the last
House, we have no means of judging, as it
is not published in the Globe, as Mr.. G. init
mates. The first Homestead bill which
passed the House, however, was introduced
and engineered by Hon. J. L. DAWSON, of
Pennsylvania, thorough Democrat; and
this bill passed before Mr.. GROW turned his
attention to the West, or the Homestead law,
as field for political capital.
AS to the private conversation between
Mr.. Grow and Mr.. KELLY, on which the
former relies to escape from the predica-
ment in which he is placed, Of course we
know nothing" Our article was based
upon facts obtained from the official records
of Congress and if these records fasten
upon Mr.. Grow the charge of plagiarism, it
is his misfortune. His letter does not in
the least affect the truth of single state
mont made in this naner

The San Juan Affair.

A despatch from Washington, dated the
18th, says that Gen. ScoTT left the Capital
on that afternoon, for New York, whence
he was to have sailed on the Goth for the
Pacific. The present delicate and compli.
Gated state of affairs at San Juan, growing
out of Gen. HARNEY's movements, require
great care and caution on the part of our
Government to prevent collision. The
President in comforting with Gen. SCOTT,
in regard to the matter, suggested the pro-
priety of sending some one there who was
less impetuous and more prudent than Gen.
HARVEY. Gen. ScoTr at once informed the
President that he would 60, and as soon as
Instructions were prepared, he would be
ready to start. The instructions we're i'm
mediately prepared, and ''old Chippewa"
was to have sailed for the Pacific yesterday,
the Goth, from New York.

Glorious News from Fillmore-ROusing
Meeting.
PRESTON, TUESDAY, Sept. IL, 1859.

PRESTON, TUESDAY, Sept Ii, 1859.
To the Editors of the Pioneer and Democrat
The Democracy of Fillmore County, are
all alive. BECKER and CAvANAUGH will
surely sweep Southern Minnesota with a
rousing majority. Let but the Democracy
of the North stand true to their guns and
the enemy are ours.
On Saturday the 10th there was tre-
mendous gathering at this place, such as has
never been in this county before. The peO-
pie commenced assembling at an early hour
in the day, and by two o'clock the town was
filled with people; still they kept pouring
in. Two and four horse teams loaded with
men, banners, flags and music. Some came
the distance OF thirty miles. As the evening
drew near, the Hall where we were to as
semble commenced filing with ladies, and
at the time the speaking commenced there
were about $50 present. When BECKER and
CAvANUGH came into the Hall the shouts of
the Democracy were unbounded. The speech
OF Mr.. BECKER was truthful, manly and
eloquent it touched the true Democratic
chord. His positions upon State policy are
fully endorsed and bare marked contrast
with the non -committalism of RAMSEY. l
hear but one expression among the people,
and that is that they endorse BECKER and
CAvANAUGH, and will vote for them on the
18th of October. The other Democrats
upon the State ticket we have not heard, but
hope to before the campaign closes. At
late hour OF the night the meeting adjourned.
Each man went home fully satisfied and de-
termined to work for the nominations of the
Democracy.
We also had the pleasure of attending
another Democratic Rally at Chatfeld on
the 18th. They raised hickory pole there
in the afternoon, and BECKER and CAvAN
AUGH spoke in the evening. The Democ
racy were all out. About 1000 persons
were present. including 200 ladies. This
staunch old Democratic town is wide awake
and determined not to be out voted or out
canvassed in the coming contest. You prob
ably remember that last year the Republican
County Board threw out this town. because
it was 100 Democratic majority, and gave
certificates to Republicans. The matter had
legal investigation and was decided in
favor of the Democrats.
We have just learned that CAvANAUGH
and BECKER had a rousing meeting this
evening, the 18th, at Rochester, 1000 per.
sons present.
The Democracy of Olmsted county are
rallying every man, and are bound to carry
that county this fall. The people are down
upon the Reputation and Taxation policy
of the Republican party. The withdrawal
of the Lands from market has taken all the
thunder out of the Republican party as i.
was the only thing they had to harps upon
Roll on the Ball. Yours, X.

Democratic Legislative Ticket.

The Democracy have been unusually
fortunate in the selection of candidates for
the Senate and House. WIZ. SPRIGG HALL
and Gen. VAN ETrEN were both renomin.
ated for the Senate. The latter is we'll
known he served the city with fidelity and
success, not only during several sessions of
the Territorial Legislature, but as prom
inent and Influential member of the last
Senate. The Convention in selecting Mr.
HALL, as candidate, gave expression to
the wishes of nine-tenths Of the people-not
the Democracy alone, but the people-of the
County. During his Senatorial career, he
achieved an influence rarely welded in any
legislative assembly by 80 young man.
As Senator, Mr.. HALL united great
prudence and discretion with energy and
industry he was courteous to his associates,
yet discharged his duties with fearlessness
and determination. CHARLES N. MAcKUB1N,
the remaining candidate for the Senate, is
an old citizen of st. Paul, and well known
to our citizens. He is gentleman not only
of cultivated mind, but unequalled business
qualifications. A prominent Republican
remarked to us, the day of Mr.. MAcKUB1N's
nomination, that he had done ten times mere
this summer, to advance and promote the
interests of St. Paul, than ALEXANDER
RAMSEY had done in ten years. This is
true. St. Paul boasts no more worthy
enterprising, or honorable citizen than
CHARLES N. MACKUBIN. The election Of
these three gentlemen is conceded by all
acquainted with the political sentiment Of
the county.
For Representatives, we have GEORGE
M1rscH, an Industrious German mechanic
of unimpeachable character ; OSCAR STE
PHExsoN, who is general favorite, not only
for his good qualities of heart, but for his
sterling integrity, thorough Democracy, and
brilliant ability; VIM. P. MURRAY, one Of
the hardest and most effective workers St.
Paul has ever had in State or Territorial
legislatures JOHN B. OLIVIER, deservedly
popular gentleman, who represents on the
ticket the French population-a class to
whom St. Paul is largely indebted; GEORGE
PLuNKETT, an intelligent young attorney !;
and last, but not least by any means, we
have Col. D. A. ROBERTSON, the present
Mayor of st. Paul. The Colonel in the
Legislature would never sacrifice principle
for policy; he will prove, what we need very
much, an able, influential, and thoroughly
Democratic member-never losing sight of
the landmarks of the party, or wandering
off after strange gods.
We can sincerely urge upon the Demo-
cracy, united and vigorous support of this
ticket. 1t composes men of respectability OF
character, as we'll as of talent and legislative
experience.

ton from the position occupied by WINDOW,
the Know Nothing Republican candidate
for Congress. It has been proved that be
was prominent Know Nothing in Ohio !;
that he has taken all the oaths of that Or

lies and foreigners alike; and to surrender
his conscience to the keeping Of lodge of
oath-bound conspirators against the peace
and prosperity of the country. His letter
of denial has been proved LIE; and Will

Democratic Club Meeting-A Grand
Reunion.

The meeting of the Democratic Club on
Monday night was one of the largest and
most spirited of the present campaign.
The large hall was crowded to its utmost
capacity, and the enthusiasm of the crowd
was tumultuous.
The meeting was opened by Col. Rob.
ERrsoN, who, after few encouraging re-
marks upon the progress of the campaign,
introduced Judge LARRABEE and Hon.
EMILE RoTHE, of Wisconsin, who happened
to be in town, on their way to ill appoint
ments in the Northern part of the
State. These gentlemen spoke but a
few minutes apiece but they uttered words
of power and eloquence, which were re-
sponded to by the heartiest demonstrations
OF applause. Mr.. RoTHE, German orator
Of distinction, spoke to his countrymen in
their native tongue, and with the happiest
effect. We commend these gentlemen to
the most generous courtesies of our Demo-
cratic friends, in those sections of the State
where they are announced to speak and
assure them, and the people of all parties,
that in point of thorough ability and attrac-
tive eloquence, their superiors will not be
heard throughout our whole campaign.
Gov. GoRMAN followed Messrs. LARRABEE
and RoTHE, being called forth by the most
earnest and enthusiastic appeals on the part
Of the crowd. The Governor touched the
right chord in every sentence he uttered.
1t was one of the happiest efforts we have
ever heard him make. The cheering, in
response to his earnest eloquence, occupied
nearly as much time as his speech, so cor
rectly did he interpret the sentiments of his
auditory. He spoke upon Popular Sover-
eighty, and at every mention of DoUeLAs's
name, and at every enunciation of his
great principles, the great hall trembled
with the deafening applause. Gov. GoRMAN
touched the keynote of the canvass last
night /; and we are glad that he has con-
sented to 60 out actively into the campaign.
