Hon. w. w. Phelps, as Editor.

We are glad to notice from the last num-
Der of the Red Wing Sentinel, that VIM.
CoLv1LL, Jr., has retired from that paper,
and that Hon. W. w. PHELPS has assumed
its editorial management. The new editor
is as eminently fit the position as the late
editor was unfit. The Democracy of Good
hue county have now an organ which they
can support generously and with good con-
science.
Mr.. PHELPS introduces himself in we'll
written salutatory, taking high, conservative
national Democratic ground. 1t will be
recollected that he was chosen one of the
Delegates from this State to the Charleston
Convention. The Administration press,
after having vainly tried to secure an anti
Douglas delegation, have been busy since in
misrepresenting the position of those who
were elected. Among them, Mr.. PHELPS
has been claimed as an Administration
man. How false this claim is, the following
extract from that gentleman's salutatory
will show:
Believing that STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS,
more than any living American statesman is
the man to carry the country through the pres
ent national crisis, we shall earnestly sustain
his nomination to the Presidency by the Demo
cratic party. He has the "puck' and unbend
ing back. bone" for any emergency that may
arise he is the hope of the conservative class.
es, and the young men of the country are en-.
Enthusiastically devoted to him. His Senatorial
career, in the successes he has obtained; his
victory in Illinois, over the combined forces of
the Administration and the Republicans, mark
him as man of no ordinary type; and above
all, if nominated, he is certain OF his election.
The action of our delegation at Charles
ton will show that the assumptions of these
Administration hirelings with regard to his
associates are as unfounded and impudent,
as Mr.. PHELPS has demonstrated them to
be so far as his own position is concerned.

The Legislative Agricultural Gu b

RED WING, Feb. s, 1850.
To the Editors II The Pioneer and Democrat
The discussion in the Legislators Agri>
cultural Club are attracting considerable
attention in this section of the State. They
are drawing attention to various subjects of
agriculture that would otherwise remain in
comparative obscurity, and be known only
to the few. They are giving agriculture a
stimulus that, in the minds of many at least
it has heretofore lacked. They are doing
essential benefit to the country. Indeed, it
has been gravely limited, that the discussions
of the Legislators in that club, are of more
permanent good to the State, than all their
onerous and multiform labors in the Legis-
lative halls.
II not already done, cannot the institution
be rendered of a permanent character p
Must it necessarily cease upon the dissolu.
tion of the Legislature l hope not. 1
trust the discussion will continue in some
form, even if it be only through occasional
communications to the newspapers. Ire
spectfally suggest to the club, for discussion,
the following, viz: The Importance, advan-
tages, method of organization, &C., of Town
ship Agricultural Clubs-also, Fruit raj
sing. s. P. s.
