For Congress from the I'd District,
COL. STEPHEN MILLER.
The Fourth.

We trust the citizens of St. Cloud will
make matter of conscience Of contributing
toward the pic mic, on the Fourth. There
is to be charge for dinner, and the pro-
ceeds are to 60 toward paying for the in
strumonts of the Brass Band. The Band
owe debt Of $lS0,for their instruments
and have paid $50 apiece for instruction.
The instruments belong to the place, so
that when member of the Band leaves, he
leaves his instrument for his successor. The
Band is therefore, st Cloud institution,
and one ontly creditable to the place.
Its members are among our most SUBJ
stantial and influential citizens-men
whose interests are identified with the
place and we should show an appreciation
of their prudence and public spirit by Civ
ing them benefit that aciW be benefit.
Those who will contribute provisions should
have them ready early in the day, and
teams will 90 round to collect them.

A noted Bushwacker Shot on the

From the Hannibal, No., Herald, June 10.
Information was brought into camp at
Palmyra on Saturday last, that Colonel
John Owen, notorious rebel who has
made himself conspicuous in burning
bridges, cars and depots, and in firing into
passenger trains, last summer and fall,
was secreted at, or uear his farm in Monroe.
A detachment from Company A. llth

mediately sent out from Palmyra, to hurt
the outlaw. On approaching the farm of
Col. Owens on Sunday about twelve NJ.

idly from the house towards piece Of
brush. The Lieutenent and his company
Immediately started for the brush, and 60
ing into it, they discovered the same, and
soon bagged it. AT first the Colonel show
ed determination to resist his capture;
but finding such a procedure useless, he
yielded. Preparations were made for his
execution. He begged the soldiers to take
him prisoner. They imormed him that
'*taking prisoners" was played out. They
then placed him upon a stump, in front of
file of soldiers, and at tho word of COM
mand eight bullets pierced the body Of the
rebel, killing him instantly. .:.....H ,.,.:.>

Bright Prospects Ahead.

The voluminous emigration correspon-
dence of the Commissioner of Statistics,
whose files he has permitted US to examine,
indicate that an immense emigration is
about setting in towards this State.
" Letters como to him by scores daily
from every section of the East and West,
requesting documents and special iptorma-
ton about the State; and in addition to his
Reports, he has found it necessary to pub.
ish thousands Of circulars, and is now
about issuing a large edition of small
pamphlets to meet the demand for infor.
nation in relation to the public lands in
this State, the climate, soil, &c.
In HIS files we notice letter from
Horace Greedy, requesting information
upon these subjects for Tribune pamph.
let which ho is about to publish-a pretty
sure indication of the direction which the
public mind is taking.
Though the present emigration move
ment is, in tho main, the natural result o.
the Homestead Law, it is but justice t
say that the direction which it is assum
ing towards this State, is largely due to thu
efforts which Mr.. Wheelock has made by
his official publications and correspon
dence to attract attention to our unrivallet
advantages.-S. Paul Press.

Mr.. Everett's Lecture.

The opening passage Of this lecture, as
written down on the spot,by Mr.. Brewster,
was given verbatim in our last number
1t was descriptive Of the scenery on the
Upper Mississippi, and reference to the
character Of that stream as ]igament to
bind the states.
He then gave historical synopsis show
ing the causlessness of the rebellion. The
South first demanded protective tariff
and when every pound of cotton used as
clothing or candle wick, in New England,
was imported, a duty of three cents per
pound was laid upon cotton, for the ex-
press purpose Of fostering the culture
in the Southern. States: So of sugar.
Up to the time Of secession the North paid
a duty of two and half cents per pound
on sugar in order to favor the sugar plant
ers Of the South. Under this policy COT
ton grew to be King. But 80 soon as it
reached the point where it no longer need
ed protection: the policy of protective
tariff was repudiated and made the excuse
for the notification measures of South Car
olina. He regretted that that hydra had
not been permitted to run its course, and
meet its reward meeted out by Jackson
Had it done so there would have been no
secession in 81, but the nulli6ers had
been met by compromise instead of confs.
cation. He, himself, had voted for the
compromise measures brought forward by
Henry Clay, but now felt the policy was Q
mistake. ... ....
The South, so far from being imposed
upon by the North, had carried all he,
measures and controlled the government

a pair of fans and places them on his coat
bosom with the middle fingers pointing to
the center. When he begins to be en-
phatic he closes the two middle fingers of
the right hand and points upward with
the first and fourth fingers; and when he
adds more emphasis he spreads out all the
fingers Of the left hand and holds that
aloft also, both palms to the audience.-l
When he goes off into burst of eloquence
hc SPREADS out all his digits, reaches up
his arms toward the ceiling and makes
them shiver with kind Of palzied motion.
Altogether his appearance is character
istic of the man who "never originated All
idea, or put an old thought into a new
FORM" Still he is doing good, we may
say great work now. The Lord works
by great variety of ihstrumentalities,
and Everett, without one throb of sympa-
thy for the downtrodden millions of the
earth is contributing his mite toward put
ting down that spirit of slavery which
tramples, in time, on the rights Of all, by
showing the utter lack Of apology or ex-
cuse for the rebellion it has raised, in Or

The comet Is now distinctly visible In the
northwest to the naked eye every clear evening.
u lies above and little west Of the laststar in
the tail of the Great bear. This comet was
frat discovered by Mr.. Tuttle, at Cambridge,
Masa. on the evening Of the lesh of July, in
the constellation CamslOpardalus. Il was also
independently discovered by Carlini, ct Flor
enoe, on the 22d, and by Dr.. Sebjellerup, at
Copenhagen, on the 25th of July.
1t is rapidly approaching both the earth and
sun, and will pass nearest TO the latter on the
afternoon of the 25th inst at distance Of
about ninety.tW millions Of miles. II will be
nearest the earth on the 3lst inst, and will be
distant from us about thirty-Ave millions Of
miles. Its brllliancy will then be maximum,
more than twice as great as at the present date,
and twenty times greater than at the date of
its discovery. The comet will pass within
two millions Of miles Of the orbit of the earth
on the 18th of September. There is, however,
no danger Of our coming In contact with any
portion of Ii, as we shall be then nearly fifty
millions Of miles distant from that point Of the
earth's orbit near which the comet will pass in
Its descending node
The comet is moving rapidly toward the
South, and will disappear in the twilight in the
Southwest, about the middle Of September -
IL is probably stranger, as no recorded ele-
ments bear sufficient resemblance to indicate
that this is return of one hitherto observed.

EnigmaIicaI-Tho Late Union Con.
ventiOn,


We are at Q loss to understand tho reeent
Union State Convention and Its prooeedinRs.-
The Union party in Ohio was organized, az wa
supposed, and as the public was led to SUPPOSE,
upon the idea of vigorous prosecution Of the
war-to combine the force of the original and
uncompromising war men, for the purpose of
giving the strongest moral aid to the most
forcible measures for the subjugation of the
rebels and the restoration of the Union. Yet
the Convention called to It's Pfesidency, both Of
ne provisional and permanent organization, the
Hon. Benjamin Stanton, gentleman whose
antecedents are, BY no means, In the line of
extreme coercion. In bis place In Congress, In
February, 1861, Mr.. Stanton declared himself
not to believe that "this Government can per-
manently be held together by military force"

OF this Confederscy will ultimately eubugate

The votes and policy of Mr.. Stanton 10 Con-

heels OF this, and with no public recantation of

the President of the State Convention of the
vigorous war party. Are We not right In think.
Ing these things hard to comprehend tits true
that the status of the man may not infallibly
determine that Of the body over which he is
called to preside; but such bodies usually select
for their officers men who are known to be rep

of their organization. We should like it II our

We observe also that the Convention passed
an "uudiminished confidence resolution for
Mi. Lincoln, and broke up with three cheers
for General Mcclellan. How is this7 Our
