It is hinted that some of the unterrified used a little skulduggery to secure their election as delegates. But as it is "none of our funeral," we don't propose to in terfcro. PERSONAL.—Capt. Daniels, of the 1st M. M. R., and Cnpt. Hall, of the Seventh Regi ment, arrived in town on Monday evening from Sibley's expedition. Col. Marcey, Inspector General, U. S. Ar my, and Capt. E. B. Cariing, Chief Quarter master for this State, returned from Fort Abercrombie, as far as Sauk Certre on Sab bath evening, and from there took a route across to Fort Ridgley. INDIANS NRAR PAYNISNII.I.B.—EXCITIM AI» VKMTUKR Or A CoiTPLR OF S CLOIIU GKNTLK MBN.—On Saturday, while Dr. J. V. Wren, Post Surgeon for Richmond and Paynesville, and Capt. T. M. Newson, C. S., were return ing from Paynesville, and when about three miles this side, three objects wore discovered on an eminence a half mile off, observing the movements of tbeso gentlemen as they passed along in their buggy. After some inspection it became apparent that they were In dians, and this idea was confirmed when one of them arose from his recumbent position, folded bis blanket around him and• started down a ravine that lead to the road some distance in advance, with the evident intention of cutting our party off. But they had heard of Indians before, and were not to be intimidated by anything of this kind and moreover the Dr. had observed that the mis erable red-skin had no gun, and he did not fear the bow and arrows. So, giving the Cap tain the reins, he took his own rifle, and with perfect coolness prepaied to give the wary foe warm reception. They drove along as be fore, the near approach to danger failing to effect them, and they talked as calmly as tho' they were seated in their respective offices in this city. Approaching the ravine, the Doctor got his rifle in position and closed his teeth firmly. Coming directly opposite, they found that they were in advance of the enemy, and •topping the buggy waited for his coming, prepared to surprise him. After a moment's suspense a huge—sand-hill crane eame stalk lag along, and seeing the warlike array, start ed off on his barn-door wings, followed short ly by the twe others on the hill. The Doctor took the reins and made the best time to this city that is on record. After they reached here, the story seemed too good to keep. Their mistake, however, is not to be won dered at. The peculiar state of the atmos phere on the prairie frequently magnifies ob jects at a short distance so that they can be resolved into anything. It Is in this way that two-thirds of our Indian stories have origina ted and this party certainly deserve credit for ferreting the matter out. It was but tho day before that a squad of men from Paynes ville had made a charge in another direction on a brace of these big cranes, they having been reported as Indians. The Captain says that when the Doctor had his rifle in position to shoot, near the ravine, he observed that both his eyes were shut, but we think this must have been a mistake. ST. CLOUD VS. NBW OBLBANS.—For more than a year past, Mr. Geo. F. Brott has been residing in New Orleans, being engaged in bu siness in that city. He has a young seven year old, Charlie, who went to school upon his arrival in the Crescent City. But it seems that even down by the gulf, Charlie's patriot ism did not waver, and he would persist in singing, "We'll hang Jeff Davis on a sour ap ple tree," very much to the annoyance of the young chivalry who attended school with him. After a while they allowed their ire to get so much the better of their discretion, that they attempted to bring our young Minnesotian to terms, but as he had too much muscle for them, and made it an invariable rule to whip every boy who tried to "coerce" him, they gave up the job. Finally, for the sake of peace, his parents were obliged to keep him at home, as he would sing his song and would also pound unlucky boys who attempted to interfere with him. All we have to say is, good for Charlie! We have no doubt but that he and Ben Butler could soon bring New Or leans around into being a thoroughly loyal city. BEWARE or IMPOSITION.—Some unprinci pled parties have put up a large amount of worthless stuff called Saleratus, and scattered it all over the Western States, much to the detriment of B. De Land & Co.'s excellent Saleratus. This worthless stuff is put up in blue or green paper and called "if. B. De L*nd & Co.'s House Wife's Favorite," while D. B. De Land & Co.'s House Wife's favorite or chem ical Saleratus is put up only in bright red pa pers. Beware of the imposition. n3-3t|| DIED.-—At the residence of her parents, this city, on Monday, the 24th.,inst., MIN NIE S., daughter of 3. R. and A. D.
