Tri-Weekly Pioneer and Democrat.

We will commence about the 18th of
July, the issue of Tri-Weekly edition of
the PIONEER AND DEMOCRAT. It will be
published on Sundays, Wednesdays and
Friday of each week, and will be sent out to
subscribers by the morning mail of the day
of publication. The TRI-WEEKLY PIONEER
AND DEMOCRAT will contain all the news
and reading matter published in the daily
paper, and will be of as much service and
value to the business men in those portions
OF the State, only reached by tri.weekly
mails, as a daily paper. The speedy COM
pletion of the telegraph to St. Paul, Of which
advantage we propose to literally avail our
self of in the future issues of our paper,
will lend additional value to all our edi-
tiOns.
The Tri-Weekly will be mailed to sub
scribers at $3.50 per year $500 for six
months; $l.OO for three months. Orders
must be acc ompanied by the cash. This
rule is infexible.

A CHANGE Expected IN THE PIONEER AND
DEMoCRAT.-There are strange rumOrs abroad.
The PIONEER AND DEMOCRAT may suddenly
slip its Douglas wind one of these fine mornings
and the people of St. Paul wake up and find it
full fedged Democratic organ with the Brock
inridge and Lane flag proudly floating from its
masthead. The Milk in the Cocoa Nut is
evidently working. 1t is not for naught the
Earle has been seen around these few days fO-,
gathering and canvassing with the office hold
ers and avowed Breckenridge men! Let the
public keep its eye skinned for sights about
these times.--Minnesotian
If the public keeps its eye skinned right
sharp and clear, it will find that The PIo-
NEER AND DEMOCRAT office can be bought
on the following terms, and nothing short
err" to wit: Price, $50 ,OOO--cash down ;
with the stipulation that the paper shall re-
main under its present editorial control un-
til the close of the presidential campaign.
And, on the payment of the above price,
the editors will deposit the purchase money
under conditions that the whole shall be
forfeited for any public charity, if any word
or line is suffered to appear in its columns
during the campaign, antagonistic to DouG-
LAS and JOHNSON, should they "live, and
move and have their being" until its close.
A transfer of the Office can be had any
day on the above terms and at no time on
any other.

A Record OF Infamy.

We find the following card in the WASH
ington papers. It tells its own infamous
story, and c0nsummates the treason to the
Democratic party against which we warned
the Democracy before the assembling of the
January convention. If the question would
not instinctively be put by themselves, we
would ask those soft hearted, credulous Dem
ocrats, who blamed US for denouncing HENRY
M. RICE for cherishing in his heart treason
against the party, whether we were not right
in our denunciations Look at the record.
1t is very short; but it is long enough to
make many of the class to whom we refer,
blush with shame and indignation before
they finish its reading

A Lawless Community.

The counsel employed by Governor RAM
sEY in the matter of disregarding the injunc-
ton of the Court, and selling out the rail-
road companies, have, through their organ,
The Minnesotian, announced to our people,
that the sale in question, being made by
ALEXANDER RAMSEY, as Governor, was no
violation of the injunction, because that was
addressed to " ALEXANDER RAssEY" with
outany designation of his Office. In carrying
out their Investigations, we are informed
that these learned gentlemen have made the
astounding discovery that every law of Min
nesota has been signed by" ALEXANDER
RAMSEY" WILLIS A. GoRMAN,"" S. ME-.
DAIRY" or "HENRY H. S1BLEY," with no
name of Office affixed. Even the law of
March 6, 1860, under which ALEXANDER
RAMSEY, as Governor, has assumed to sell
out the railroads, is signed simply ALEX
AMBER RAMSEY" with no name of Office
added.
Now, both the Organic Act of the Terri
tory, and the Constitution of the State, re-
quire that every bill which shall pass both
branches of the Legislature, " shall, before it
becomes law, be presented to the Co..
ernor." If he approve, he shall sign it y
in which case it becomes law, and not
otherwise, excepting by two-thirds of the
two Houses, in case be refuses so to sign.
Of course, Judge COOPER, and the other
wise legal advisers of his Excellency, do not
undertake to dodge the logical result, how
ever much they may deplore it. 1t is con-
fessed on all hands, that NE haze no Statutes;
and that we are thrown back upon the Com
mon Law" according to the course of the
same in the courts of Kings Bench, in
England, anterior to the General Rules and
Regulations of Trinity Term, WILLIAM
w., A. D. 1881, so far as tile same shall be
applicable" For Heavens sake, Gov. RAM
sEY, call an extra session, and let US have
lars! We common people need them, even
if Governors do disregard them. Just con-
slider what becomes of the Blackbird Act :,
under this state of things
In this connection, we were struck by
the pertinence of remark made at the rail-
road sale by plain-spoken man, who, in
abiding to this attempted enforcement of
Gov. RAMSEY from his office, gave it as his
opinion, that, if ALEXANDER RAMSEY should
happen to die before the expiration of his
official term, and should, unfortunately, be
sent to Hell, he feared the Governor would
nevertheless, find himself in very hot and
uncomfortable predicament. In which
opinion we beg to coincide, mem. con.

Georgia Fire Eaters--HOw they hold
an Anti. Douglas Convention.

The Cincinnati Enquirer, speaking of
the late Georgia anti>Douglas Convention,
says that CAREY W. STILES, one of the del
egates, was lately convicted of an offense
against the United States in rescuiDg La
mar, the alleged SLAYER Of the Wanderer no.
toriety, from the custody of the jailor where
be was confined, and sentenced to thirty
days Imprisonment. But he managed to
escape from Jail, and represented two coun-
ties in the Milledgeville Convention, sitting
by the side of Mr.. Howell Cobb, and acting
on the committee on resolutions with the
Secretary of the Treasury. Stiles cast
about ten votes in the convention out of the
two hundred and eighty that the disunion-
lists had. After the convention the United
States Marshal re.arrested Mr.. Cobb's
cheek jowl associate in the convention,
and recommitted him to the place of i'm
prisonment. Here was the spectacle of a
Secretary of the Treasury of the United
States sitting in council with known Of
fender against the laws of the United States,
whose escape from confinement was noto-
rious.
But this was not the most remarkable
feature of that convention. Of the twenty
three members of the committee on resolu>
lions, eighteen were blood relations of Mr.
Cobb, and Postmasters. From Clark
county the delegates were Hon. Howell
Cobb, his brother, Tom. e. Cobb, his sons,
Lamar and l. T. Cobb, and his cousins, A.
A. Hill and James Jackson. This was ex
clusively family affair. Another cousin
of Howell Cobb, Mr.. Lumpkin, represented
four counties in the Milledgeville Seceders'
Convention, and cast about twenty-five votes
against non-intervention. The bulk of the
protectionists " in that Convention were
Postmasters, and nearly all of this class of
officers whose compensation per annum
amounted to enough to pay expenses to and
from Milledgeville, were delegates,
That is the character of the pack who

the South would sustain the principles laid
down in it. In his opinion, the doctrine of
nOn.interventiOn was necessity to the pre-
servation of the Union, [applause,] and he

Gov. JOHNSON is one of the most popular
men ID the Empire State of the South, and
will lend strength to the cause throughout
the Southern States
Gov. FITZPATRICK, we believe, from
personal knowledge of his sentiments on the
subject of Judge DOUGLAS nomination, will
heartily support the ticket, as now consti-
tuted, although be declines the nomination
rendered him. His declination may have

relieve the canvass from any of the embar
easements which would have resulted from
his official acts as Senator.

SHAKoPEE, June &c, 1850.
Correspondence ofhe Pioneer and Democrat.
On the arrival of the Antelope, last eve>
ming, at every town along the river, as soon
as the news was received of DOUGLASS NOM
nation, great excitement prevailed, and
shouts went up from hundreds of voices,
and made the surrounding woods echo with
the ring of exultiDg demonstrations OF heart
felt joy. Never was there exhibited more
enthusiastic feeling than was shown along
the Minnesota, by the groups who had as
sembled at the different landings to hear the
expected news of the nomination of the
Peoples Champion. When the first sponta-
neous Civilizations we're over, the anvils were
brought out in lieu of cannon, and made to
thunder out the joy of the people.
At Shakopee, one hundred and one guns
were fred at Chaska the compliment was
returned by like demonstration and last,
but not least, Carver went in with right
good will, and " did it up brown" for the
Little Giant. The firing was kept up from
eight o'clock in the evening away into /" the
wee sma' hours ayont the twal," and the
very best of good feeling prevailed in all
these places. You may set it down that a
bigger vote will be cast for DOUGLAS in
Carver and Scott counties than was ever
cast for any man before. So shout again
-" Douglas and Victory; for such a
glorious candidate deserves such glorious
result, and he will have it.
