leave, in the name of the people whose
interests have been confided to my keep
ing, most solemnly to protest against the
passage of the bill introduced by the gen
tleman from Illinois for the “ relief and
support of the indigent insane” within
the limits of the States. Minnesota and
Oregon have an undoubted right to ask of
every member upon this floor, protection
against any proposed measure of legisla
tion which would tend to retard their ad
vancement or destroy their prosperity.—
In their present infant and defenceless
condition, they do call for such protection.
I invoke tlfc aid of those Representatives
who are opposed to the exercise of doubt
ful powers by the General Government,-
and of such as are friends of the Territo
ries, to arrest this scheme in its incep
tion, and thus entitle themselves to the
approbation of all who maintain the doc
trine that
“ Government, though high, an-1 low, aiul lower.
Put Into parts, doth keep in one consent ;
Congreelng In a full and natural close
Like music.”
Correspondence of the Minnesotlan.
Ckow Wing, May 3, 1852.
Friend Owens : — lt seems that spring
has at last made its appearance in this
portion of the country, after a long and
tedious winter, which adds ne%v life and
energy to our industrious community.—
The snow that so lately covered the fields
has melted away under the warm and
genial rays of an April sun, giving the
farmer an opportunity to commence pre
paring his land for his spring crop. Of
all the places I have seen, the Chippewa
farm presents the most lively picture. It
is carried on by Wm. Nettlcton, Esq.—an
energetic and persevering Yankee. He
has some 300 or 400 acres under cultiva
tion, upon which he has ten teams, well
manned, at work. It is as fine a soil as
is to be found in Minnesota, and should
we be blessed with a favorable season
will produce sufficient to give our red
brethren their share of the good things of
this earth.
It is a beautiful location, situated on
Paul’s Prairie. Said prairie containing
about 3,000 acres, nearly surrounded by \
water, six miles northwest of the Miss- j
issippi river, and two miles from Gull -
river, a Shall river, running nearly par- j
allel with the Mississippi, and emptying j
into Crow Wing river. Gull river has j
some splcnded mill seals on it, and I un- ;
derstand there is a prospect of a mill be
ing erected soon. Crow Wing river is a j
large and beautiful stream, emptying into
the Mississippi near Mr. Beaulieu’s tra
ding post; it looks to be nearly as large
as the Father of Waters, and much more
pure, and contains almost every species
of fish. On the south and west side
there are numerous lakes ; some of which
arc as beautiful as I ever saw, blending
harmoniously romance with reality; mak
ing it one of the most delightful rambling
spots that I have visited in Minnesota,
and well calculated to allure and captivate
the Indian (who knows so well how to
appreciate such spots,) from those deso
late and inhospitable portions of the coun
try wliich they so lately left. The water
in the lakes is very pure and transparent,
and as palatable as New England spring
water. The abundance of fish that is
found in them, together with those in the
rivers, and the large flocks of prairie
chickens that seem to have selected it as
llicir abode, furnishes a large share of
their subsistence, which is procured with
but little trouble. The farm is well lo
cated and well conducted under the su
perintcndancy of the indefatagablc Agent,
J. S. Watrous, whose whole soul seems
to be bound up in the Indian’s welfare,
who, by the way, is down from Sandy
Lake en route for the East, to get his
family, who have been spending the win
ter in Ohio. He arrived at Crow Wing,
Friday eve last—made the trip in 2 days
—brings no news of any importance.—
He says the spring is much more back
ward in that section than it is here ; that
the last news from Fon du Lae, April
9th, there was three feet of snow ; every
thing still, and no signs of spring. The
icc in the Upper Mississippi broke away
last Wednesday evening—the water was
rising a foot in twenty-four hours.
On his arrival here he learned that
more of his red children had been com
mitting a depredation by killing an ox,
which it seems from the number that
they have killed, that they have a peculiar
taste for them. There is but little doubt,
however, if he continues the course he
has adopted in making them atone for
their disobedience in the Guard House,
at Fort Ripley, that it will not prove so
profitable to them in future. They show
ed some grit and ccnsiderable opposition
to being taken, but he finally secured
them, and they may now be seen doing
their regular chopping at Capt. Todd’s
wood pile, with instructors by their side.
Quite a missionary school that—serves
them right—they will yet find that the
Major’s word is good for all he tells
them.
The news from Red Lake, last week,
reports the snow 3 1-2 feet deep. We
are all awaiting with great anxiety to
know the success of the Liquor Law in
St. Paul. We hope the temperance men,
and lovers of law and order will not be
found wanting in carrying it out to the let
ter. If they arc found wanting in nerve,
we shall be under the necessity of iviting
the ladies of St. Paul to remove to Ben
ton county, where they will find their ef
forts appreciated.
In haste, A.
The Chances or Life.— Among the
interesting facts developed by the recent
census, are some in relation to the laws
that govern life and death. They are ba
sed upon returns from the State of Mary
land, and a comparison with previous ones.
The calculation it is unnecessary to ex
plain, but the result is a table from which
we gather the following illustration:
10,288 infants are born on the same day
and enter upon life simultaneously. Of
these, 1,243 never reach the anniversary
of their birth. 9,025 commence the sec
ond year, but the proportion of deaths still
continues so great, that at the end of the
third year only 1,183, or about four-fifths
of the original number, survive. But du
ring the fourth year, the system seems to
acquire more strength, and the number of
deaths rapidly decreases. It goes on de-
creasing until 21, the commencement of
maturity and the period of highest health.
7,134 enter upon the activities and re
sponsibilities of active life—more than
two-thirds of the original number. Thir
ty-five comes the meridian of manhood,
b',301 have reached it. Twenty years
more, and the ranks are thinned. Only
4,727, or less than half of those who en
tered on life fifty-live years ago, are left,
and death comes more frequently. Every
year the ratio of mortality steadily increas
es, and at seventy, there are not a thou
sand survivors. A scattered few live on
to the close of the century, and at the age
of one hundred and six, the drama is
ended. The last man is dead. —Albany
Jour.
Good Pat. — The pay of Louis Na
poleon as president of France, is twelve
millions of franks a year, (.$2,130,000,)
which is about $192,500 per month,
equal to $0,330 per day. So Louis Napo
leon gets in four days what our President
gets in a whole year, his pay lor one day
is more than the salary of any of the
members of our Cabinet. There is some
thing after all in being President of
France.
Cincinnati, May 3.
The Indiana House of Representatives
have killed the Maine Liquor Law by a
sweeping majority in both Houses, and
passed a bill appropriating $5,000 to aid
the colonization of free negroes in the
State.
The Printer's National Convention as
sembled this A. M. at 10 o’clock' and
after Some preliminary business, perma
nent officers were appointed as follows:
President, M. Brown, of Philadelphia;
A ice President, Mr. Lewis, of St. Louis;
Secretaries, Messrs. Leigh of Cincinnati,
and Baker of New York; Treasurer, Mr.
Nafew of Albany.
Two Dromios in tiie Legislature.
—Christopher Columbus Potter, and
Americas Vespucius Potter, arc twin
brothers, and look so precisely alike that
we question (says the Providence Jour
nal) if they know themselves from each
other. If they do, nobody else does.—
Both are members of the General Assem
bly—Christopher a Whig, and Amerieus
a Democrat; and there will be a pretty
muss when they get to Newport. Not a
soul in the House can tell one from the
other ; and the Democrats will be running
to Christopher, and the Whigs to Ameri
cus, with all the secrets of their respect
ive parties.
They have had the “mysterious rap
pings” in Philadelphia. The police,
wondermongers and star-gazers, were all
set agog, and many of them scared half to
death. The “ spirits” manifested them
selves by breaking the windows of a cer
tain house in Vine street. But, it was
finally discovered that a little minx, about
twelve years of age, a bound girl in the
family, flung all the brickbats, and did the
mischief.
