The weekly pioneer and Democrat. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. Territory) 1855-1865, 1860-12-21

The PoT Bo1Ls.-Col. Webb, of the New
York Courier, asks and answers questions
in manner that proves slight difference
of opinion between Republican politicians.
Here is sample:
"If the Albany Evensng Journal and
ourselves, have asked nothing but what is
right and just, and which may be conceded
by both the North and South with honor
why does the Tribune in the face of facts,
and in total disregard of the slightest re-
spect for truth, charge US with proposing to
nullify the election Of Lincoln and the dis.
bandment of the Republican party? The
answer is at hand. Simply because the
editor of the Tribune is as much Of an
Abolitionist as Garrison, and At heart as
anxious to dissolve the Union, as Yancey
or Keitt, and other disunionists at the
South"

lenged.
The Hon. VIM. M. Gwin, q. s. Senator
from California, offered his vote in the
Seventh District. On his approach to the
polls, Mr.. Owen Curran, neat little Irish>
man, Douglas Democrat, challenged the
Senator's vote on the ground that he was
not resident of California, but he belonged
to Mississippi. Various exclamations were
heard derogatory of the public character of
the distinguished gentleman, among others,
one that he had lost his right to vote by
defeating the Pacific Railroad, another that
he lived in Texas. The Doctor declared
that he was Senator from California, that
his name was VIM. NJ. Gwin, that he came
here in l849, that be was United States
Senator.
All did not satisfy Mr.. Curran, who per-
sisted in his challenge, insisting upon each
individual reason urged in the. objections
aboYe cited to Gwin's competency. There
remained no alternative under the law but
to administer the oath to DR.. Gwin, and he
took it accordingly. His vote was then ad-
mitted.-San F rancsco Times.

The London Times of the 26th ult., COM
mences an elaborate article on the threat
ened secession Of the Southern States of the
American Union, with the following notice.
able paragraph: -...
In electing Mr.. Lincoln to the Office of Presi-
dent, the Northern United States have ventured
on bold experiment. They have determined
to test the courage and sincerity CT the South,
to face unapalled the sceptre Of secession, and
discover whether it be really terrible spirit
potent for evil, or only bugbear, devised by
clever faction, inflated with the breath of rho
domOntadipg orators, and dressed out with
hideous mask by pacemen trembling for their
appointments. A month or two will show
how far those are in the right who have calcu.
lated ON the strength of the american Union and
the supremacy Of national feeling 0uer all section
al interests. Should South Carolina, Georgia
and the adjacent States separate themselves
permanently from the Federation, constituting
themselves new nation, with their own army,
navy, customs, foreign representatives, and all
the appanages ,Ofindependence, then the whole
series of American politicians will have been in
the wrong, and this journal, which has always
declared such an event to be impossible, will
have been in the wrong with them. But if, af.
ter an outburst Of party passion, the Southern
ers themselves become sensible of the wicked.
ness and folly of their course if they recognize
how far the pOssessors and eXpectants of Off
cial places are the movers of this agitation, and
if, moreover, they are calmed by the reflection
thata President, powerful as he is, can do little
to alter the policy Of the Republic and nothing at
all to subuert the domestic institutions of the
al States, then the result will be such as we an.
ticipate, and the United States will continue to
combine in one Federation, two communities,
with widely different politics and systems of
social life, but forming essentially and unalter-
ably one and the same people.
The Times then renewes the action of the
Southern States, and comes to the conclu-
sion that the best policy for the Federal
government, is
-"To leave the Southerners entirely to them.
selves, to take no notice of the withdrawal of
the Senators and Representatives, to avoid as
much as possible any conflict between the Fed
eral authorities and the excited populace Of
Charleston in short, to oppose q mastery inac.
tivity to the South. The South will grow accus.
toned to a Republican President, the move.
ment in South Carolina and Georgia will be
confined to only section of the slave States,
and after some months wiser counsels will pre-
vail even there. President Lincoln will prob
ably be found by the shareholders more harm.
less than they anticipate. Mems acts are never
SO extreme as their opinions, and, as the free
soilers have fourished under the dominion of
their opponents, SO the South may exist in spite
of a Chief Magistrate whose opinions on slavery
are not considered orthodox at Charleston.

ST. ANTHoNYsAND MINNEAPOLIS
FROM OUR OWN REPORTER.

Nor CLosED.--The Mississippi river,
from the head of Nicollet Island to the
"Dam," is still partially open. We would
like to know if Captain Taper, the ever
present toll gatherer, has managed to resist
the encroachments of Jack Frost for the
especial benefit of the inexorable Bridge
stockholders. If so, we, with sundry other
victims, would like to know long the league
is to continue. .., d. i'm. ,st 20.
F1RE.-The Drying House of Messrs.
Gilpatrick & Bassett, used for the purpose
of drying material for their pail and bucket
factory, was burned last Friday. Loss,
800. We learn that this misfortune will
not seriously curtail the operations of their
factory. The Dry House was built on the
dam structure. During the progress Of the
fire, the dam took fire, threatening the demo
htion of that important Improvement. Hap
PLY it was timely extinguished. a ;o
ARREsTED.--It will be remembered by
the readers of the PIONEER that we noticed
some months since, the robbery of Messrs.
Newman & Co.'s store at st. Anthony.
The loss sustained was quite heavy. At
many that two young men by the name Of
Day had something to do with the burglary.
Quite true-these young men decamped to
parts unknown Immediately after the rob-
berry. These precious gems of morality
made their appearance in st. Anthony last
Saturday evening. The youngest, Henry
Day, has been arrested on the charge of
aforesaid burglary. The preliminary exam.
ination will come off to-day. These preco-
cious youths are sons of G. r. H. Day, Esq,
Of st. Anthony.
FAIR AND FESTIVAL Ladies of the
Presbyterian congregation of St. Anthony
intend to hold EAR and Festival in their
new church building on the Wednesday eve
succeeding Christmas day. 1t promises to
be recherche affair.
farmers SroRE.-We learn that there
is a movement on foot among the farmers
of Baooklyn, Cedar Lake and Rich6eld
Towns to establish Farmers Store. in
Minneapolis. The plan contemplates
store at which dry goods, groceries, &c.
will be sold at nett cost, with an additional
percentage imposed sufficient to pay rent
and clerk hire. The arrangement is by no
means original. 1t was most effectually
tried on, a few years since, in the rural dis
tricts of the Empire State" and with ru.
inous consequences to all concerned. The
experiment proved universal failure, in
volyiDg the originators in perplexipg law
suits, many of which remain on the "calen-
dars" of the respective counties unsettled.
We would advise those contemplating the
establishment of similar venture here, to
inform themselves Of the history of the New
York Bubble" One thing we would add,
if the project could not succeed there, it is
very probable it would not here.

Boston ELEcT1oN.-The vote cast in
Boston on Monday for Mayor was IA, 4,449-
the largest vote ever cast at municipal
election in that city, yet about 5000 less
than that cast for President in November.
+. W. Lincoln, jr. the present Mayor, was
elected by the Americans and Republicans
last year. His vote was 5,e5s. Mr.. Kim.
ball. the Republican candidate, defeated on
Monday, received 5,6Sl votes. Mr.. Wight
man, the Mayor elect, was the candidate of
the Democrats and Bell men, His vote was
upward of 5000.

COMMISSIONER OF THE LAND OFFICE
The New York Times Washington cores
pondent, writing on the 18th, says:-"Hon.
CYRUS ALDR1cH, of Minnesota, is mention
ed by many here for the Office of Commis.
sioner of the General Land Office, under the
incoming Administration. His long ex-
perience as Land Officer in the West, to.

q LETTER FROM Pixies PEAK.-A gentle
man of this city has placed in our hands a
letter received by him from Minnesotian,
dated Gregory's Diggings, Nov 18th, from
which we make some extracts that may be
of interest to. those who have friends in that
region: ~
'We have just had heavy fall of snow and
the weather is very cold, and everything is
very quiet. Many of the quartz mills in the
mountains are not running, on account of
water, as the different bitches are frozen over
and only those that have springs are able to
work. Here and there you will find gulch
miner at work, but most of them have either
gone to the States, or are at work on the lead
claims, or in the mines. IIaw 4 .oi 81, ~
''Very lattering accounts have been received
from South Clear Creek; new leads have been
discovered and assays made which have yield.
ed from four to forty thousand dollars per
cord. You may think this statement is wild,
but the assays were made by DR.. Day, (brother
of DR.. Day of St. 4PauD, and he is called by all
who are acquainted with him an honorable
man, and one who can be relied upon. The
leads over at Gold Dirt are yielding from three
to seven hundred dollars per cord. In this sec.
tiou the yield is from one to five hundred dol.
lars-generally about two thousand dollars.
The one that we are grinding is from the Fisk
lead, and averages two hundred and fifty dol.
lars per cord. The expense of getting out and
grinding is forty six dollars per cord-so you
see there is good profit left. Miners and mill
owners are sanguine that there is money to be
made in the business. -4
''All the Minnesotians, as far as know, are
in good health and doing as well as could be
expected, considering the unfavorable season."

'"OLD ABE in the rough experiences Of
his early days, couldn't have had choice
of bedsfellows; there are at least dozen Of
the most aonery" fellows we know Of, in this
city alone, who boast Of having travelled,
eaten, drank and slept with him-and ex-

A FREE PoRT.-Dan. E. Sickles in a
late speech in Congress, said:--"The city
Of New York will cling to the Union while
a single hope is left; but when there is no
longer Union, proud as she is of her posi-
tion as a metropolis, ready to Danish sec.
tional prejudices, and willing to contribute
all in her power to maintain her honor at
home and abroad, when there is no longer
a Union, she will never consent to be an
appendage or slave of Puritan province.
There is no sympathy now between the city
and State of New York, nor has there been
for years. She will open her free port to
the commerce of the world" This project
is advocated by several New York papers.
EDUCATION IN WIscoNs1N.-The annual
report of the Superintendent of Public In
struction in Wisconsin, gives the number
of school districts in that State as 4,110;
number of male attendants, 194, ,834--being
about two thirds of the children of school
age in the State; average monthly wages
of male teachers, $24 20; ditto female
teachers, $l4 "a; total receipts for school
purposes during the last year, $574,183 81.
There are 1,l75 district libraries in the
State, containing an aggregate of 35,939
