PUBLIC SENTIMENT. D.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug.

We need but shut our eyes and listen, to
individuals talking, to multitudes talking, to
the whole country speaking, and common
sense intepprets, and makes proclamation that
a great revolution Is at hand, or rather that
the revolution in public sentiment is COM
pletc, and held in check, feverish, restless,
uneasy chcck-anxiously awaiting for the
time to arrive for action, to give public ex-
preston to their sentiments, and fix the
course Of public policy already determined
upon.
There never was a time since the days of
the Revolution of '7G, when men took sides
with so much of meaning in the act as at pre-
sent There is momcntousness in this
thing now, which rises far above the fiction
and trickery of deceitful party names. Men
kick these treacherous symbols aside in pur-
suit of realties-facts. The fuglemep, who
play only upon worn out party instruments,
sink into nothingness when men are in real
earnest. A lofty sentiment has taken hold of
mems souls now, that can't be charmed asleep
by the old melodies of democracy. That
opiate has lost its effect. No time now for
drowsiness to such as would breathe the air
of freedom. None but the dead sleep now.
Men are in earnest; in action, as they ever
are, when dangers press loud upon them.
No times these for your penny-trumpet
palavering stump man. There is too much
to be done; too much meaning in each mans
actions too much of life or death in his re-
solves to listen to the exhausting and exhaust
less wind-bags of stump declamations.-
Words now are things -acions-and when
expressive of the spirit of the times, are ex-
plosive, and rouse the dormant patriotism
which virtue has kept concealed within mems
souls.
Mobocracy has performed its terrible mis-
sion, and through the despotism of vice, plum
dering and impoverishing, under the name
and forms of law, to strengthen and reward
party favorites, has thus reused into acton a
laeent spirit of resistance which no power on
earth or under the earth can conquer.
The portentious rumblings OF the not DIS
tant thunder.cloud should warn towards to
Aec and the scoundrel rogues to call upon the
rocks and hills to hide them, before the terri
BILE gust of popular revenge bursts forth to
purify the political sky, and sweep away the
malarious infection into the dark abyss of
eternity. r.: -
Look around, scan the horizon closely, and
do you not see thirty millions of souls all
astir, moving quickly, courageously, like men
bent on some superhuman mission. A uni

ly minated to the Heads of Department at

having no manner of regard for the genteel
nronrietors of warfare We are sorry, indeed,
our neighbor is so annoyed, at all this-that
it bees and whines so like whipped school
bow at our irregular partizan tactics But
it's its own fault. When we have offered it
fair-stand-up, field fight, it has declined the
contest, and thought to win by playing mum
and ignoring great public issues. Our only
resource therefore, is to touch it on the raw

large, good store, kept by MORRISON &
WRIGHT, and steam saw-mill, and very
fine steam grist-mill, owned by MORRISON,
WRIGHT, and Folsom.
The steamboat landing here is excellent,
the water being wide, deep, and still; but
the little plat of ground between the bluff
and the river is low, about like the bottom of
what is known generally as West Saint Paul,
and was overlooked three or four feet during
the recent food.
The bluffs are very high here, being two
hundred and sixty-two feet above low water.
There are three COOLIES" leading up to the
plain above, affording excellent roads, with a
good grade. (This word "coolis'' is most ad-
mirably adapted to the use it is put to in this
country, signifying dry break. cove, hollow,
or gap in the mountains or bluffs, gradually
lessening till they run out at the top The
plain above is q most beautiful, level table o
rich openings. .
The great advantages which the proprietor
claim for it, are centrally for Dakota County
(they claim it to be within three miles of tn
geographical centre,) and contiguity to tn
best agricultural portions of the County. o
these am too little acquainted to form an.
individual opinion.
The people are everywhere harvesting, an
are all rejoiced at their bounteous prospects
noticed yesterday fact worthy of men
ton. saw a crop of Hungarian Grass, ju:
coming out of the ground, which has bee
sowed where crop of barley has been ha1
vested this year. A little less than three
fourths of an acre yielded twenty bushels
barley. The barley has been harvested
, threshed, the ground plowed, and sowed
t this grass, and the grass on the third day
e August was up.
S I have noticed fact here and along Il
e river which am glad to find. The logs ca
e ried off from the upper river by the la
n food are all lodged along the shore, in spot
Il from Saint Anthony to Lake Pepin. The
n is saw mill every few miles, and these 10
v can all be got and sawed. Thousands
E. them are lodged here, close to the mill. Al

owners, still there is no loss to the wor

In not making the attempt, the organ will not

nobody believes them to possess. We are
glad to know that our article has met with
universal appreciation, as right word said in

The recent ugly disclosures by Gov. Cor
man of the details and modus operandi of the
frauds by which Governor Ramsey and the
people of the State were tricked out Of the
election in the fall of 1857, is producing no
little excitement, comment, and censure from
the public press. Even Democracy is max
ing a virtue of necessity in denouncing these
fragrant crimes which accident has brought
to light. The following is the text which has
called forth such severe and contemptuous
castigation of the parties implicated:
"Gov. German declared says the Chat6eld
Min Republican, that he knew, from his own per-
sonal knowledge, that the Rice men, headed by
Henry NJ. Rice himself, did, two years ago, in
Becker IS law Office, fix up the plan by means of
which the canvass of the election in 1857 was
made. The Governor further declared that it was
known not only to himself, but to others in and

Proclamation by the Governor

For the first time in the history of Minnesota,
it has become the stern but melancholy duty OF
the Executive to employ military force to sup
press a combination against the law in one OF the
Counties of the State. Twice has an armed MOB
in Wright County outraged the public sentiment
first BY the unlawful hanging Of Oscar +. Jack
son. after he had had an impartial trial, and been
acquitted By q jury of that County, and subse,
quenty, the Sd instant, by rescuing the alleged
participation in the crime from the custody OF the
civil authorities. To assert the majesty OF the
law, and to subdue the spirit o: ruffianism which
has thus manifested itself by overt acts, prompt
measures will be taken.
|, HENRY H. SHELLEY Governor (?) of the State
of Minnesota in view of the fact that the civil off,
of Wright County are utterly poweriess 10 ex-
ecute the laws, do hereby declare the sad county
of Wright to bein state of insurrecton, and en-
Join upon all good citizens of that and the adJon-
ing Countess that they lend their aid to the State
authorities in the steps that may be required 10 re-
press violence and disorder, and soemnly warn
the actors in the outrages in Wright County, that
anv further attempts on their part to obstruct or
resist the course Of public justice will bring inev-
table ruin upon their own heads, and may be mas
cry and desotation upon their innocent families a.
In testimony whereof, l have hcreunto set my
hand and caused the great Seal OF the
State to be affixed, this Fifth day OF
L. 5. August in the year one thousand eight

PARTICULARS OF THE CALIFORNIA; DUEL.
Cincinnati, Oct. 10.-Thc San Francisco
Times of the 18th gives the full partic-
uars of the duel between Messrs. Brod-
crick and Terry At 6.15 both parties
arrived on the ground, attended by their
seconds and Physicians. Hon. j G..
Mckibben and Mr. Coulter acted for
Broderick, and Calhoun Benham and
Thas lIavs for Terry. Half an honr
was occupied in making the arrange
ments. Ten PAGES were marked off, and
tho principals took their positions The
seconds Invested them of all articles pre-
senting prominent target. Terry stood
with his head thrown slightly back, look
ing towards his antagonist. Each held
his pistol in his hand and pointed to the
ground, and both were dressed in black
clothes Broderick stood erect, but his
head rather down. Terry maintained
the position of practised duellist, pre-
senting only the edge of his person, and
keeping his left arm and shoulder we'll
behind. Broderick, though at first as
suming a position somewhat similar,
seemed to prefer careless and less con-
strained one, and gradually had presen-
ted more of his body to the fire of bis
antagonist. He held his pistol rather
awkwardly.
Tic bearing OF Terry, though he as.
sumed more praetised and motionloss
attitude, it was not one jot moro thanoi
an iron-ncryed man than was that Of
Broderick.
At quarter before seven Coulter pro.
nounccd the words.
Are you ready? One. two, fire, y
in moderately quick time. Broderick
raised his pistol, but scarcely brought il
to an angle of 45 degrees from its down
ward position, when, owing to the deli
cacy Of the hair trigger, it discharged
the ball, entering tue ground four pace,
in advance. Terry fred few second,
later, and appeared to take deliberate
aim. There was perceptiblc interva
between the two. reports.
Broderick was observed to clap hi,
left hand to his right breast, and reclec
slowly to the left and, before the sec
onds could reach him, Ire fell to tn,
ground. Terry folded his arms but die
not move. Bro9erick's seconds ran /,

borne into town in his carriage. Pre-
-VIOusly Terry and his friends left tn,

crgetically than ever, tho intention of

thoroughly acquainted with the real state
Of things, and to receive instructions how
toactin this imminent crisis. I. is main
ly owing to his efforts that blood has not
flowed in the Romagna, and that the

from which there is no hope that Plus x
