The war between JIM LANE, "Governor'

" bleeding Kansas, goes briskly on. The
last number of the Leavenworth Herald
contains fierce letter from REDPArH to
LANE, denouncing ROBINSON as a perjurer,
and signed "neither your friend or we'll
wisder." Gov. ROBINSON is equally severe
upon JIM LANE. The following is an extract
from letter written by him:

Mr.. Sumner alluded to the fact that there
was no resisting, by a mob, as previously
stated IN the Senate, unless it was by the
kidnappers who arrested Mr.. Sanborn. The
special committee know that Ex>Gov. Wise
was in possession of important facts relat-
ing to the Harper's Ferry affair, which he
would not disclose for rubies, and threw
down the challenge to the committee and the
country that be would not appear. Yet be
was not summoned, and two northern men
who knew nothing about the affair, were
arrested and put in Jail.
Mr.. Mason said so far as he spoke of the
action of the committee, the Senator knew
nothing of them. The committee would
report in due time.
Mr.. Sumner replied that Mr.. Wise was
not kidnapped nor handcufed, fact ap
parent to all. The papers and memorials
were laid on the table.
The bill for the relief of David Myerlt
was passed for $4,000.

The LAL1YER CAsE.-The case of Law
renee Laliyer, who was convicted of the
murder of his wife, has been carried up to
the Supreme Court, on exceptions taken by
his counsel to the ruling of the District
Judge. The counsel claim, in legal phras-
ology, that the corpus deficit should have
been shown aliunde the confession of the
accused-in other words, that the crime of
murder shonld have been proved upon him,
independent of, and without his own con.
fssion of it. 1t will be recollected that
what caused Laliyer's arrest for the murder,
was his confession made in Prairie du Chen,
and this being detailed before the jury by
the person to whom it was made, probably
went very far to cause his conviction. We
understand that in the United States Courts,
exceptions of this character have been over
ruled, but expectations are entertained that
our Supreme Court will sustain them.

POLICE CoURr.--Nelson Gibbs, Esq, the
newly elected City Justice, entered upon the
discharge of his duties Tuesday the 10th.
He has had twenty years. experience, and
has perfectly familiarized himself with the
duties of his Office, and in his present posi-

majority of his fellow citizens whose suf-

The retiring Justice, Orlando Simons,

three years prior to that time had been a

the following remarks of the Minnesotian
on his retirement:
When St. Paul was log cabin village, al

and sometimes seemingly harsh, all the nice

IMMIaRArIoN.-It is gratifying to notice
the large number of actual settlers constant
ly pouring into the State. We have been
informed by one of our business men, who
has the best means of obtaining knowledge
upon this subject. that the immigration this
year is three times as large as last year, and
this is confirmed to some extent by our own
observation. Although the city of St. Paul
and the Upper Mississippi country, which
is directly tributary to it, receive their due
proportion, yet the largest number land at
the various points in the State between this
city and the Iowa line-the benefits of which
accrue directly to the common wealth of the
State, and indirectly to every citizen thereof:
One of the pricipal causes of the emigra-
ton this year,--and really, the first cause
was the Information spread abroad of our
immense crops of last year, and the singular
fact which is now becoming we'll known in
Wisconsin. Illinois, Indiana and Missouri,
that although Minnesota is hundreds of
miles north of those States, crops are here
more exempt from destruction by frost, both
in spring and fall, than in those States. The
superior healthfulness of Minnesota, over
almost every other part of the Union, is a
fact that has come to be universally &C,
knowledged.
There is another fact which is becoming
we'll understood at the east, that the proper
time to settle at the west is not when the
fever of speculation is running high, and
property can hardly be obtained at eastern
prices, but in time of comparative quiet,
like that at present prevailing, when every
thing has found proper level. If that time
has really arrived, we may henceforth look
for substantial relief from the indiscretions of
the past, by an influx of actual settlers.
The renewal of the gold fever in California
and Pixies Peak has caused a temporary loss
of those usually denominated the " FLOATING
population of the State, but in their places,
we have received an accession of agricultur.
alists whose permanent residence will not
depend upon the fluctuations of trade and
the rise and fall ofreal estate, after they have
once made settlement within our borders
1t is to the advantage of all to encour-
age the emigrant by every proper means.
He should be disinterestedly directed to the
best localities for settlement, and furnished
with all the information and assistance he
stands 80 much in need of as ga stranger
in a strange land" He should not be "taken
in after the manner of the world. but in
generous obedience to the scriptural injunc-
ton.
