SENATOR RIcE.--The ST. Paul Pioneer is
after Rice with the sharpest kind of sticks.
1t charges him with being doublc-dealing
on the Lecompton question. and after tying
to an Administration he at first denounced,
he deliberately worked for the success of
the Republicans in Minnesota that he (Rice)
as the Buchanan sole representative in Con-
gross could control the State patronage and
put money in his purse by selling the off,
ces to the highest bidder.
These are grave charges against the

are founded in malice rather than in fact.

that he is now ready to supply families
