ncendiary and set fire to the governmental
Office.

THANKSGIVING passed off quietly with
quiet peop4e-others spent the day Sin their
own way" TIE morning was as bright and
beautiful as could have been desired, and
the outward aspect of the earth, the air and
the sky, passed, with other stimulants, into
the spirits of the people, and kindled them
to genial emulation with nature. The
churches were about as we'll filled as on Sun.
days, and the sermons and offerings of thanks
of more than ordinary interest. Those who
were set 10 families, enjoyed the festivities of
the day as they had been accustomed to do
in their dear old, far-of homes, with smiles
and graspipg hands and drinks and meats"
but who can tell OF the real solitude OF
those who, although mingling outwardly
with the crowd at hotels and boarding hou-
ses, were only trying to drown the recoIlec-
tions Of home, aud kindred, ard acquaintan-
ces, and friends-because they were debarred
from participating in their pleasures. Let
such take unto themselves wives, and make
homes of their OVID.

Indian Massacre I'm Oregon.-.Horrible
Statement.

A letter from Walla Walla, Washington
Territory, to the Portland (Oregon) Neys,
dated November 3, says that an express had
just arrived in the valley from the command
of Captain Dent, who was ordered out upon
the emigrant road in the vicinity of Fort
Boyd, to investigate the report Of the mas.
sacre of the emigrants.
Captain Dent found some ten or twelve
emigrants still alive, and subsisting upon
the dead bodies of their associates. The
messenger reports that some twelve dead
bodies had been found, and that ten more
were still alive, secreted in parties Of three
or four, for distance of twelve miles in the
vicinity of the attack. Some had died of
actual starvation. Mr.. Meyers, bis broth
er's wife, Mrs. Meyers, with five children,
and Miss Trimball, were among the living.
The party were subsisting upon the dead
body of Mr.. Meyers, the father and husband
of the family.

"Bayard Taylor and Papal DespOt-
ism.''

A few weeks since we published COM
munication on the subject of the govern
ment of the Papal States, in which the wri-
ter cited an article purportipg to be from
the pen of BAYARD TAYLOR, and in which
facts and figures were produced to show that
the Papal government in respect to the
economy of its administration taxation, care
of the poor and sick, education, political
freedom, ETC., was one of the very best gov
ernments in the world. Mr.. TAYLOR, in a
letter to friend in st. Paul, pronounccs
the pretended quotation a forgery! lie
says: "* X The article, SO far as my
name is concerned, is for cry. l never
wrote line of it-coud not have done so,
because the statements it contains directly
conflict with my own opinions. The Papal
government is very bad and corrup,-in
fact despotism of the worst kind. Of
course, if really held the views expressed
in that article, l should not hesitate to say
so. AS am no political aspirant, can
enjoy the luxury of sincerity"
we, of course, acquit the writer of the
communication, in which the article referred
to was embodied, of any knowledge of the
forgery. In using it, be honestly believed
it to be by Mr.. TAYLOR, and was, no doubt,
glad to have such reliable authority to sus-
tain his own erroneous, but honestly enter
tanned, convictions.

Neutrality-suspicious.. 49, The Cincinnati
Commercial, a hadiug Republican paper
says: Congressional legislation for the pro.
lection or prohibition of slavery in the
Territories is hardly among the possibilities
Of the future. The idea of protecting slave
property in the Territories by an act of Con-
gress is an absurd abstraction. The idea of
prohibiting slavery 10 the Territories by an
act OF Congress is obsolete. The people of the
Territories will determine the question OF
slavery for themselves, and Congress will
admit new States without reference to
slavery. 10 few months these propositions
will be almost universally recognized as Fixed
facts"

The Missouri Electoral Vote for DOUG
las.

The Missouri electoral vote will be cast
for DOUGLAS and JOHNSON. The official re-
turns received at Jefferson City give them
527 majority over BELL and EVERETT. Some
of the back counties are not yet 10, and
messengers have been sent after their votes.
The official result will not be decided until
they are received. The Missouri electors
are therefore sure, in any event, for DOUG.
LAS. This gallant State is now the only
one in the Union that has always voted at
every Presidential election, for the regular.
ly nominated Democratic candidate. She
was one of the seven memorable States that
maintained their integrity in the dark hours
of 1910. Their names were New Hamp>
shire, Virginia, Alabama, South Carolina,
Arkansas, Missouri and Illinois. All have
now stumbled by the way or gone Opposi-
ton except Missouri.

ST. ANTHONY AND MINNEAPOLIS
FROM OUR OWN REPORTER.

RED RIVER NEws.-We are indebted to
the Rev. John McDermott, of St. Anthony,
who has just returned from the Red River,
for the following items of rews. He will
please except our thanks
A party of four soldiers deserted from
Fort Abercrombie last Monday week.
Starting in the direction of st. Cloud, they
Travelled some forty miles, when they were
Overtaken by furious snow storm. Night
came on, and in the darkness they lost the
trail, and wandered around all night. One
of the party sank to the snow-covered
earth from sheer exhaustion, and persisted
by freezing. The balance OF the party,
after travelling all next day, succeeded in
reaching the town of Dayton about
dusk. Two of the party concealed them.
selves behind hay-stack, while the other
one entered log cabin. Imagine his sur.
prise to find snugly ensconced before the
cheerful fire Maj. Mcdowell and party of
the U. S. Army. The gallant Major de.
mauded his "pass." Not being provided
with one, he was promptly placed under
arrest. lie found the game was up, and
consequently revealed the whereabouts of
bis comrades, who were also arrested.
Next morning, while on the way to the
Fort, the body of their dead comrade was
found, and taken back to Fort A bercrombie.
Our informant, the Rev. John McDermott,
Catholic priest of st. Anthony, who was
present, oficiated as chaplain, by reading
the burial service over the body of the uu-
fortunate desarter.
SEVERE CoLD.-The winter set in very
severely along the Red River, as early as
the 9th of November. The sloughs and
rivers were frozen over. Snow had fallen
to the depth Of a foot. Sleighing was ex-
cellent.
Fort ABERCRoMBIE.--There is now
stationed at this post three companies of
soldiers, under the command of Major Day.
Much Inconvenience and hardship have been
encountered by the Garrison from want OF
comfortable quarters. The soldiers being
/ compelled to "dwell in tents" Through the
energy of the gallant commandment the CHAR
racks" have been so far completed as to make
tolerabe comfortable quarters. The num-
Der of assertions has been very great. 1t is
to be hoped that the miserable end of the
frozen deserter will have the effect of intim-
idating others from making an attempt to
brave the vgors of winter as they rage on
the broad and unsettled praires that inter-
vene between Fort Abercrombie and st.
Cloud
Priest McDermott speaks in the warmest
terms of the kind reception he met from
Majors Day and Mcdowell, Captain David
son, Lieutenant Spencer, and Surgeon
Smith, of Fort A bererombie. Part of bis
business in visiting the Fort was the COL
lectiug of funds for the purpose of aiding in
the erection of the Catholic Cathedral of
St. Anthony. The above banned officers
responded liberalIy-as in fact their brother
officers and The frank and file" generally.

form" by the properly authorized committee

LUCKYFo FOR Us.-The issues OF Minnesota
banks are not affected by the. roars and
growls of the bulls and bears in Wall street.
The securities are so ample, ('cord for
cord') that people are beginning to hoard
the bills of these banks, and lavishly spend
others, for fear of depreciation. It is truly
an unlocked for state of things, and very
gratifying to us-at this particular juno
ture.
