The CooL1E TRADE.-Statistics of the
coolie trade with Cuba, show that up to
the 18th of December, 1859, there had
been 42,50l Chinese coolies landed at the
different island ports. Between that date
and the 18th of August last, $3.50 add.
tional coolies were landed out of total of
5000 shipped, showing total mortality of
nearly ten per cent. during the passage.
While the trade in Chinese coolies exhibits
this great mortality, it is quite impossible
for the government of the United States to
lend it aid or countenance. The distinc-
ton that is drawn between this kind of
immigration" and the African slave trade
is, practically, no distinction at all. Lord
John Russell, who has been endeavoripg to
induce our government to support coolie
immigration as means of suppressing the
slave trade, knows perfectly we'll that the
one is as immoral as the other.

Slavery I'm the Territories.

The strangest of all admissions is that
made by WIN. 81. SEWARD in his Detroit
speech. 1t is an admission, the Chicago
Times says, that completely and thoroughly
stulti6es the Republican party. Mr.. Sew
ARD contends that slavery can never be es-
tablished in any of the Territories of the
United States, unless the African slave
trade is re-opened. He then contends that
this would be resisted by the slave states
upon the ground that it would depreciate
the price of slaves already here, to the Diet.
riment Of their owners. Now, If the posi-
tions which Mr.. SEWARD has thus boldly
assumed to be true, what necessity or even
apology is there for the existence of the Re-
publican party? They base the whole ne
cessity of their existence on the prevention
of slavery in the Territories. Mr.. SEWARD
denies that slavery can ever be established
in any of the Territories unless the slave
trade is re-opened, and admits that that
never can happen. How then can there
exist, by any possibility, necessity for the
Republican party?

Republican ON the St. Cloud Debate
Between Gilman and Window.

The Sank Rapids Ne,O Era, of the 9th
ult., Republican journal, supporting LIN.
COLIN gives the following account of the
debate between Messrs. GILMAN and WIN.
DOM, at st. Cloud, on the 23d.
Mr.. Gilman is tall, sharp looking man,
and fluent, logical speaker. His voice is
not as good, nor his manners as easy as Mr..
WINDOWS but his speech was we'll connect
ed, argumentative, and decidedly able. We
are not now considering the merits of the
questions discussed, but merely the compa.
rative merits of the men as speakers.
Mr.. Gilman treated with ability the
questions of the Homestead bill, of popular
sovereignty, the land sale, and the "Helper
Book" He urged that Douglas was the
first man in Congress to introduce the
Homestead bill. It was in 1916; and that
in l849, in 1852, and in 1859, he was the
champion of the measure. That he worked
tor it when it was unpopular in the country
and in Congress that he advocated it when
his friends and his party were against it.,
and that during the last fifteen years he had
worked for the success of the bill, through
evil and through good report. Mr.. Gilman
read from the Globe to substantiate bis po-
sitlon. He said that during all this time,
with the exception of the last year, Mr..
Hamlin, the Republican candidate for Vic
President, was the opponent of Home
stead bill, and voted against it. Mr.. Gilman

Can't Explain II.

The Detroit Free Press says: "Not one
of the Black Republicans has yet attempted
to explain the inconsistency Of Mr.. SEWARD
in his course upon the Missouri Compro-
mise. He said in his Detroit speech that
it's establishment was the first wrong step
the government took on the slavery ques-
ton, and yet he opposed its repeal, which
would certainly be the first step toward a
return to the right, and the party with
which be acts was built up upon the very
ground of opposition to the repeal. Cannot
the public be afforded some explanation of
this matter? 1t must have been that
HAML1N took the same view of the Missouri
Compromise that SEWARD does, believing
it to be the first wrong step on the slavery
question, when he voted in 1848 against
Mr.. DOUGLAS bill in the Senate to extend
it across the continent to the Pacific.
LINCOLN was of the same opinion, too, for
when the bill came down to the House he
voted against it."

Gilman and Window at ShakOpet

Gilman and Window at Shakopee.
Correspondence of Pioneer and Democrat.
SHAKoPEE, Sept. %, 1860.
John NJ. Gilman and William Window
addressed large audience at this place last
night. Mr.. Gilman spoke first with great
energy and eloquence, and clearly established
by argument that the Democratic doctrine
of nOn-intervention is correct and just
settlement of the slavery question-such a
settlement that will give Congress time to
mature legislation for the benefit of the
white man. The question was not whether
slavery was right or wrong, but which of
the parties presented the best way of getting
rid of the whole question.
Window, in his answer to Gilman, did
not even attempt to show that the policy of
the Republican party was any better than
that of the Democratic, and many Republic
cans will either not vote at all or will vote
for Douglas.
Window is clearly not a match for Gil
man, and the Republican Committee had
better call him out of the Valley. The
Shakopee Little Giants Club were out in
full force, and made splendid appearance,
were in fine trim and very enthusiastic.
Put Scott down for 500 majority.

Degrading the Governor Of Damascus,

The Governor of Damascus was publicly
degraded at Constantinople on the 5th ult.,
by order of the Sultan. A letter to the
New York World says:
The ceremony was quite imposing. He
was one of the eighty.fve great Pashas of
the great Empire. He was taken to the
great square in front of the War Depart
ment. Some thousands of troops were
assembled in the form of hollow square,
with many high officers, military and civil.
The Pasha was led into the centre of this
square. The imperial order was then read,
after which his brass fez button, his sword,
etc., were roughly torn off from him, and it
was loudly proclaimed that Ahmd, late
Pasha, Governor General of the province of
Damascus, and Commander in Chief of the
army of Arabistan, was now degraded,
stripped of all rank and Offices, and reduced
to the rank of common soldier. He was
then ANONYMOUSLY marched off to prison by
two or three cavasses, whence he was sent
to Beirut, to be tried for his life.

Homestead bill whatever

said that Mr.. Lincoln had no record on the
Homestead bill whatever. ~. ..t
Passing from the position of Mr.. Doug.
las on this question, he took up the land
sale, and asserted that Mr.. Buchanan and
the Republican members of Congress from
this State, with Senator Rice, were in
oohoot in bringing the lands into market,
and that it was done to defeat Douglas in
this State. He gave an amusing imaginary
interview at the White House, between our
members of Congress and the President, had
to consult about the propriety of vetoing
the Homestead bill. and put the lands in
market He did not pretend to say that
such meeting ever took place, but only
that the manifest of good feeling between
the leading Republicans and the Breckin-
ridge men gave reason to believe that there
was an understanding of that sort.
vi the want of action on the part of our
members of Congress in the shape of a
protest against the land sales, Mr.. Gilman
spoke with great severity; and here in this
particular we are frank to say that we agree
with him.-For in our opinion, had Gov.
Ramsey, Senators Rice and Wilkinson, and
Messrs. Window and Aldrich, gone to the
President as Gov. Sibley did last year, and
represented the suffering the sale would
inevitably bring upon the settlers had they
tl!ed with the President joint protest with
hlm-Buchanan, wicked and malicious as
ne is, never would have dared to go on
with the sale with such protest staring
him 10 the face. We have often felt like
asking why such protest had not been
filed, but did not wish to seem inclined to
say anything to iDjure our delegation. We
think, however, such protest should have
been made, and cannot understand why it
was not,

LAND WARRANTS. The great demand
for Land Warrants has almost completely
denuded the market, and prices have gone
up to high figure. 1905 a.e $40
120's are $l2O; SOS are 800 and 40s are
$46. There is not much prospect of their
getting lower before the land sales, as
there are but few offered in the Eastern
markets. Dispatches from New Yotk,
Boston, Philadelphia and Washington, to
Messrs. Thompson, Paine & Co., state that
there is great scarcity of warrants in
those markets.

The Republicans Refuse to Permit
Window 10 meet Gilman in st. Paul.

Messrs. JOHN M. GILMAN and VIM
WINDOW were announced to hold a joint
discussion at Mendoza, on Wednesday, the
26th. The Democratic Committee, in
Difference to numerous requests made by
citizens of st. Paul, of both parties. asked
that the Mendoza meeting should be post
poned, and that on the evening in question,
the two candidates should address the citi.
zens of st. Paul, instead of speaking to
fifteen or twenty persons at Mendoza. This
was peremptorily declined by the Chair.
man of the Republican Committee, DANIEL
RoHRER, who, in published card, states:
Mendoza is strongly Democratic, and it would
be stroke of policy to prevent the voters of
that precinct from hearing Republican speak
err; to say nothing of the numerous strangers
from all parts of the State attending the State
Fair at Fort Smelling on the opposite side of
the river, who, on the evening of the first day
of the Fair, would be likely to wish to hear the
discussion, however much Mr.. Gilman and his
friends might prefer otherwise.
Mr.. G1LMAN's friends desired a change,
because there was no probability Of there
being large audience at Mendoza, and for
the further reason that three thousand
people could have been assembled in the
German theatre at st. Paul to hear the
discussion between him and Mr.. WINDOW.
Now, mark the sequel. Messrs. GILMAN
and WINDOW met at MENDOZA, ON the 26th;
there mere but ten persons present, and both
gentlemen declined to speak. So much for
the immense audience of which MIR. RoHRER
writes-won't DANIEL please try again?
The fact is, the Republicans do not intend
to permit WINDOW to meet GILMAN in ST..
Paul. They are afraid to do so. WINDOWS

Hon. HERscHEL V. JOHNSON, the candidate
for the Vice Presidency. will be received in
Chicago next Friday, the 9Th OF October,

projected from all parts of Illinois, and the
adjoining States, and the low rate of fare to
Chicago, will doubtless attract consider
able number from st. Paul. Aside from
the privilege of hearing the great opponents

display will be we'll worthy of visit to
Chicago, especially when it can be made at
so small a pecuniary sacrifice.

NaDoIeo1's Poverty il Xoutt.


Mr.. Thiers, ill his history Of the Con
Sn!ateS, relates some very strange and
previously unknown particulars of the
earl life and penury Of Napoleon 30
! napaHte. 1t appears that after he had
Obtained subaItern's commission III
the t>rcnch service, and after he had
done the State good service, by his
skill and daring at Toulon, he lived for
sometime iii Paris, III obscure lodgings,
and IN such extreme poverty that lie
:fas often without the means Of paving
ten sous Give PENCE for his dinner, fre-
quently went without any meal at all.
He was under the necessity Of bor-
rowing small sums, and even worn-out
clothes, from his acquaintances. He
and his brother Louis, afterward King
Of Holland, had at one time only one coat
between them, SO the brothers could
only 90 ont alternately, time and time
about.
At this crisis the chief bencfactor of
the future Emperor, "at whose name
the world grew pale" was the actor
Talma, who often gave him food and
money.
Napoleon's face, af,erward SO famed
for IT'S classical mould, was during this
period Of starvation, sharp and angular
in its lineamentS. His hungry, mcayre
