Barnum Coming,

Mr.. Frank M. Kelsh, the agent of P. T. Bar
mum, was in the city yesterday, and called at
our office. He assures US that Barnuzn las ar
ranged to exhibit his own and only greatest
show on earth here on Friday, the 9th day of
July.
The show is much finer, extensive and ex
pensive than ever before; many new features
having been added for the season of 1850 to the
best and most attractive of the features of last
season. We have the great showman's personal
assurance that his show for this year is the
largest that ever travelled in any country in
the world. The menagarie and museum
department contain numberless animals
and curiosities never before ex-
hibited. The mechanical and automatic at
fractions are Of peculiar and novel interest,
while the circus department company numbers
full hundred performers including Madame
Dockrell, Madame Martha, Madsmoiselle Nell
son, Signora Marcellus, and other noted lady
riders and performers, together with Signor
Sebastian, the finest bareback rider of the day.
and many other stars in all the specialties of
the arena. MIR. Barnum has added seven
trained stations to his famous group of twenty,
as we'll as yoke of trained oxen, some trained
kangaroos, etc., etc. All this will be good news
to an amusement loving people, who know
that Barnum furnishes more real wholesome
amusement, fun and instruction for the money,
than any Snowman in the world. He always
keeps his promises and never advertises any,
hing he does not exhibit.

HOtC Sherman Tried to Effect Treaty OF
Peace With Blaine aud Got Biufed for
His Paths.
Washington Special
As heretofore predicted, the effort made by
Ohio politicians to bring about mutual un-
derstanding and arrangement between Sher-
man and Blaine in regard to the Ohio delega-
ton to the national convention has resulted in
a complete failure, and General Grosvenor,
who has had the matter in charge, has come
home discouraged. 1t might be remarked that
the overtures for peace came entirely from
Sherman's friends, and that Blaine neither
asked nor desired any compromise. 1t was only
when Sherman perceived that in spite of his
efforts he was certain to lose part, if not all of
the Ohio delegation, that he became all at once
anxious to open up negotiations with Blaine
for some kind of an arrangement" and Cen
eral Grosvenor came here on that Grand.
Blaine coolly bluffed the Ohio statesman
and said he was in the hands of his
friends. Sherman became exasperated aud
sent word to Blaine that unless Blaine put an
end to the war on him (Sherman) in Ohio he
would run independently for PRESIDENT In case
Blaine should be successful st Chicago.
1t was thought that this threat would bring
Blaine to time but it altogether failed to have
that effect, as the Maine statesman knew very
we'll that it was empty one and that John
had no intention of committing Earikarl in
that way. Sherman's ENJOYS were accordingly
informed that their man might do IA he liked.
If he got the Ohio delegation, we'll and good,
but we would have to fight for it and take the
chances of war. He might bolt or not just as
he pleased, but they did not intend to enter
into any arrangement. The Sherman men are
much cast down over this utter failure of their
negotiations.

Time Called on the Other Side.

O6ll!
The st. Paul GLOBE is on the war path.
and Public Examiner Knox is the individual
whose scalp it is after. The GLOBE, among
other things, calls attention to the allegation
that when Knox was in the banking business
in St. Paul he kept his shop open until five
o'clock one evening to catch all the deposits
he could, and then the next morning the
doors were not opened and the institution
had collapsed. This, the GLOBE thinks, en-
titles the official in question to all the con-
sideration justified by such historical Incl
dent. 1t further observes that not charge
of dishonesty is made against any of the
Democratic county officials. The alleged
deficiency in the Office of Col. Uline was
caused by the default of clerk, whom
the colonel promptly presented to the grand
jury, with his compliments. Knox insin-
yates that the deficit appears on the books to
be greater than it had been reported, and
regrets that the absence of Col. UIine makes
it Impossible for him to explain the discrep
sncy. The GLOBE says that Knox knew that
that officer would return in two days, and bis
"regret'' is az thin as any excuse could be
for not waiting that short time to give the
gentleman a chance to explain. The GLOBE
has spoken with force and its utterances will
carry conviction to great many non-par-
tisan and unprejudioed people. 1t would be
interesting to hear some remarks from the
other side, and the editor of the p. p. ought
to come home and make them.

Claim Against the butcher Estate i.

Arguments of counsel were heard by Judge
O'Gorman, of the probate court, yesterday, in
the claim of Albert Armstrong for $21 900, as
receiver against the estate of the late George
Culver. Mr.. w. 8. Moore, counsel for the ad-
ministrator, claimed that the property assigned
to Culver belonging to the butcher estate had
been held subject to unsettled suits in the dis
trict court in relation to the assigned property.
That the property had been assigned by
George for the benefit of the creditors; that
part of the property assigned had been taken
from Culver for rents, and that portion of it
had been turned over 10 the receiver and by
him disposed of. That the estate could only
be liable for the property not disposed of, and
that Culver was entitled to compensation for
taking charge of the property from the date of
the assignment until taken possession of by
the receiver.
MIR. Nv. D. Heard, for Mr.. Armstrong, the
receiver. argued that the law and assignments
required an immediate sale of the property;
that in neglecting to do this he had failed to
execute his trust, but had taken the assign
ments for the purpose of running the hotel.
That as he had failed to do what the law re-
quired he was not entitled to compensation but
should be charged interest on the value of
perishable property from the date of the as
Segment until now, as such property should
have been sold directly after the assignment.
Counsel were allowed one week in which to file

THE IMMIGRATION PAMPHLET.
How Disappointed Bidder Secures Its
Revenge.


How Disappointed Bidder Secures Its
Revenge.
The Pioneer Press, with characteristic men
dacity, distorted the official report of the sec
rotary of the Board of immigration in order
to injure the printing establishment of John
J. Lemon. The p. p. does job printing and
Mr.. Lemon has the audacity to do job printing
also. It is an objectionable sin for any one to
compete with that institution, and hence the
private citizen and reputable business man
must come in for the animadversions of that
dictatorial concern.
The secretary's report explained why the
printing was of the cheap order and not credit
able to the State. The legislature made such a
small appropriation that the business has to be
conducted with parsimony if it done it at all.
The paper used is inferior and shabby, because
there is not money enough to buy better ar
ticle. The secret airy compliments the printers
for having done the work we'll and as they
agreed to do. All of this explanation is ig-
nored by the p. P, and an effort is made to
turn the secretary's remarks as though they
had been directed against Mr.. Lemon, who af-
ter all did only portion of the work.
The second point made by the malicious
concern was that Mr.. Lemon had put an ad-
vertisement on the corner of the pamphlet.
The pamphlet was printed in Swede
and the printer employed by
Mr.. Lemon secured authority of the Sec
rotary of the borrd to put on an imprint" and
the imprint consisted of the advertisement of a
Swedish newspaper in St. Paul. This brought
Hans Mattson, who prints Swede newspaper
at Minneapolis. tosthe front. He thought a
little sharp practice had been rung in on him,
ctc. The contractor, Mr.. Lemon, did not
know that such an advertisement had been
printed until he was told the nature of the hob
goblin, unknown tongue. But, of course this
was sufficient for abuse from the blackmailing
sheet in question.

trust hereby committed to you you will return to
New York and report your arrival to the department.

Lost ON the Prairie.

March 18th, OF evening, E. j. Heath, Mr..
Wright.and Miss Adam, from Grant Center,
started out from Ortonville in a wagon for
their home across the prairie. A fierce storm
sprang up, the road track was obliterated by
the drifting snow and they were lost. After
wandering about for time, vainly endeavor-
ing to find the track, they espied Pickering
light and made for it. It proved to be from
the shanties of E. o. and w. s. Williams on
their claims three miles from Ortonville.
The suffering parties and their team were
kindly taken care of, and thus their lives
were saved. They could not have endured
the fierce storm much longer.

to-day is utter stagnation with no disposition

try to force steady market. This afternoon
