Excitement in Minnesota.

The latest information received from
Minnesota represents the greatest excite
ment as existing among the people of
that State in regard TO the Presidents re-
vocation of the sentence of the court
martial condemniDg to death three hun
bred Indians for completely in the recent
massacres. The newspapers there, with
out exception, take strong grounds against
the action of the President in the mat
ter, and urge upon the people the neees.
sity of taking vengeance in their own
hands, and, in defiance of the Governs
ment. executing summary punishment
upon all Indians found in the State.
The following, from Minnesota journal,
will serve to convey an idea of the inten-
sity of feeling among the people of Min
nesOta in regard to the matter.
"a permanent peace with the Sioux,
is it? Not, by the Lord of Heaven, is
the VOW of 100000 American citizens on
the soil of Minnesota, and not on any
soil adjoining it, except through, the
death of the guilty, aud the removal of
every surviving shred and remnant of
the hated race. That is no longer the
petition of the people of Minnesota, it is
their demand-a demand which they will
exact to the last retributiye drop Of In
dian blood, and they will not stop when
they shall take (if they are left to take)
the work OF vengeance in their own hand
they will not stop to measure justice
by the rule and square, aud make nice
adjustment of the account of blood.
They are not in temper for a delicate
balancing of evidence, or Judicial dis
elimination of the degree of guilt. II
the Government wants Wholesale hang
ing by the acre if it wants the West
ern plains turned into a wide Golgotha
of dead Indians, if il wants them hunt
ed down like wild beasts from the face OF
the continent it had better refuse TO per-
form the act of justice which the people
Of this State demand and turn the I'm
shrived criminals over to their victims"

CoNTRABAND GooDs-In paragraph
in yesterdays Journal it was stated that
an extensive contraband trade has been
carried on over the railroad through the
Adams Express. We did notify this,mean
TO say that the Express Company have
been engaged in contraband trade either
directly or indirectly. If they have car
ried contraband goods, it has been under
permits granted by the Government off
Gals. Under such permits they have
power to carry goods, and it is no part
of their business to inquire what goods
are in the boxes, bales, or trunks, or to
whom these belong. As common carriers,
they are bound 10 receive and forward
such things as come TO them under the
proper papers prepared by the Govern
ment authorities, and they should not be,
nor are they, held responsible even IL the
goods turn out to be contrabRnd.
No one in this community or in any
other has been more loyal and lSwabid-
ing citizen than Mr.. s. A. Jones, the
very efficient agent of Adams Express.
and there has never been the shadow of
charge against him of having done any
thing inconsistent with his obligations
to the Government. UnquestiOnably
some goods have been shipped that ought
not to have been, but no one in the en-
ploy of the Company knew anything
about il or had any opportunity of know
ing. The Company could not have guard
ed against the abuse without assuming
and exercising powers that would justly
have excited public evaporation. ~.
