Well Said.

Whe copy the following from the St
Paul Times. What tho editor says here
is well said. He says he publishes a
paper according to his idea of right
and justice; and that he will do right
whether it Pleases or displeases We
believe it. The editor ofthe Times en-
Joys reputation for independence ard
sincerity, at least, in his political views.
We are doing as the editor Of the Times
says he is. We are publishing a paper
according to our own views ofright and
1ustise; and look to no man to guide US,
and care for no mans displeasure, sstie
our Judgment to no mans coat-tail, "
and are influenced by no cliques Party
dletatlon we despise, and partizan ran
cor we contemn. We never wear the
mnzzle, and have dislike to paddock
What we think, we say, and it does not
make any difference whether party pcli-
cy says "that never will do" or not
Political winking and shying are not for
US Such enterprises, selfish aims, hy-
pocritical cant, sit t"like a upon
some shoulders but never upon ours
Let those who like that kind of practice,
enjoy it. It will do for a season. II
has, however, an ephemeral existence
and then the people say ''enough Of
1u."
But to the Times article After re-
terrIng to our remarks in relation TO his
publication Of the resolution censuring
this paper. he says
We publish paper according to our
own ideas Of right and Justice. We are
quite willing to hear both sides of oU
questions and then we claim the prerog-
ative of expressing just such an opinion
as we believe to be correct. We tie
our Judgment to no mans coat tail, or
the coat-tail of any party; when we
think we are right, we shall not stop to
inquire whether our course will offend
or please this or that man, but the great
point we wish to reach will be, is it lust
and IN this matte~, as in other matters
we shall endeavor to make this the DOM
lnant idea. We regret that the New
ERA should have given the slightest
cause for want of confidence in its
course. while we equally ragret the
hasty action of our Republican friends.
We reiterate, that it is our belief, that
the NEW ERA is honest in its advocacv
of the election of LINCOLN.

ing the proceedings. j. L. Wilson made
three or four speeches characterized for
gross profanity, and advocacy of dishon-
esty. He held Mr.. Andrews respons;-
bic Tor the Apportionment Bill passed
by the Republican Legislature, and
urged that they should send different
man to the LegisIature-one who was
more expert in tricks-and instanced

Journment was moved from the same
side OF the house, but the Chair was
obliged to admit that The motion was lost
ne confusion became very great, and
so obvious was it that the will of the ma
JorIty could not have an expression as
the meeting was organized, the majority
proposed new organization to choose
delegates.
Mr.. Shepley then mounted bench
and said he had hired the Hall off. l..
