This body met in Detroit last week, and elected delegates to attend the National Cou ncil, New York, on July 12th ; after which the following resolutions were adopted : Whereas, the National Council at its meeting in Philadelphia, in June, A.D. 1855, did by its action undertake to make this or der a slavery propagandist, and passed, among other things, in that direction, the 12th section so-called, — Now therefore— Resolved , That by these acts of said Na tional Council, a barrier has been raised to any further affiliation of this State C. with the N. 0. And we do fully approve and en dorse the action of our delegates in with drawing from that body ; and we declare this Grand Council sovereign and indepen dent of any body, except our constituent subordinate agencies. Resolved , That while we proscribe no man for birth or religion, we will oppose all ec clesiastical interference with our politics, and all dictation, by Priest or Pope to native or naturalized citizen, as to how their votes shall be cast in any election. Resolved, We adhere to the doctrine that Americans should rule America ; yet we re cognize as Americans, whether naturalized or native citizens, all such as proclaim an open Bible and free schools, and affirm and support American ideas and principles, and refuse the dictation of priest or lordling to bind the thought and the vote. Rjsolved, That we are in favor of and will labor for the immediate admission of Kansas as a free state, and we proclaim eternal hos tility to the further spread of slavery in ter ritory now free. Adopted. The bill granting lands to lowa for Rail road purposes, which we have already no ticed as being passed the house by 20 ma jority, has also passed the Senate by the following decisive vote. We quote from the Senate proceedings of the Bth iust: The House bill donating one million five hundred thousand acres of laud to lowa for railroads was read. Mr. Jones, of lowa, asked that it be put on its passage. Mr. Foote moved its reference to the Com mittee on public lands. Afteridebatc the bill was passed by the fol- lowing vote: Yeas -Messrs. Adams, Allen, Bell of Ten nessee, Bigler, Bright, Brown, Cass, Critten den, Dodge, Douglas, Durkee, Fish, Fitzpat rick, Foster, Geyer, Hall, Harlan, James, Johnson, Jones of lowa, Jones of Tennessee, Trumbull, Weller, Wilson, Yule—3l. Nays—Messrs. Briggs, Broadhead, Hun ter, Mason, Pugh, Reed, Thompson of Ky., Toombs, Wade—9. The Dubuque Tribune of Tuesday last has information from Senator Jones that the President had signed the bill. Mr. Giddinps suddenly fell in a fainting or apoplectic fit while addressing the House about 12 o’clock to-day. He had commenced a speech on the deficiency bill, and was ve hemently denouncing the appropriation of twenty-six thousand dollars to defray the expenses of the Ohio Marshal, Mr. Robinson, in returning the heroic slave-mother and her children from Cincinnati. Mr. Giddings was interrupted at the momentby Mr. Camp bell of Ohio, but he declined yielding the floor, saying, that it was a subject which so roused his feelings and filled his soul that he would not yield if to throw it, when Mr. Herbert threw a chair at him, the latter re turning the assault. He had just reached out his arm in intense gesticulation, when he suddenly grew purple in the face and fell to the floor. Several members immediately' rushed to his assist ance,—among them, Humphrey Marshall of Kentucky, who brought water, bathed his temples, and loosened his cravat, when the veteran quickly revived and w’as led to an open window in the lobby', where he soon re covered sufficiently to go to his lodgings.— The House at once postponed the business .under consideration. I L — 7— 7 I * m;* THE MINNESOTIAN. FRIDAY, MAY 16, 1856. A Great Day. The Eighth of May, A. D. One Thousand Eight Hundred and Fifty-six will long be remembered as a “ Great Day ” at the capi ital of the nation. Our news of this morn ing shows that on that day a valiant mem ber of Congress from California killed an Irish servant at one of the “ fashionable ” hotels, at an eleven o’clock breakfast table j Major lleißs “ thrashed ” the editor of Pierce’s Hand Organ—the Star ; —and old Uncle Josh. Giddings exhausted himself in making a speech against the Marshal of Southern Ohio for catching certain runaway niggers. Great day, that! Graad K. N. Council •( Michigan. The low* Land Grant. Illness of Mr. Giddings. Washington, May 8. The special dispatch to the Tribune of the Bth, says: ‘‘Mr. Giddings has felt but little inconvenience from his attack. At the end of an hour and a half he went on and finish ed his speech, though not without exciting jthe apprehension of bis friends. 5 ’ The Rev. S. Moody, Presbyterian tninister at Ashland, Ohio, was drowned at Wellsville, a few • ays ago, by the upsetting of a skiff, in which a party were crossing the Ohio. The skiff contained five persons, among them a daughter of Mr. Moody.— She was saved by the buoyancy of her clothing. A ferryman was drowned. A coal bank, a short distance from Zaues ville (0.) caved in on Friday last, and shut in four men. An immense number of peo ple, at last accounts, were engaged, amid much excitement, in trying to get them out. The prisoners had a basket of provisions, and it was supposed would hold out until rescued, although they were nearly a fourth of a mile from the mouth of the pit. JD3S* Punch gives a specimen of the ta ble-talk of Todgers : “ I was always,” said Todgers, “ kind to animals ; I recollect being much hurt by a flea that hopped away from me and avoided me. Once it hopped towards me, but when I was about to lay on' it the hand of friend- it gave a skip in a contrary direction. T 132 0 t W •paelal Despatch U the New Yerk Gaily Ti» t , Washington, May 8. There was a desperate affray at the dining room of Willard’s Hotel, this morning. Wm. Herbert, member from California, shot and killed one <tf the Irish waiters. Mr. Herbert delivered himself up immediately to a magis trate. Sis friends assert that he acted in self-defence. He was considerably scratch ed and bruised, but not seriously so. The homicide has created great excite ment. The evidence is conflicting, but I understand that the Dutch Minister, who saw the entire affray, says that Herbert struck the first blow, in return for an ex pression by the waiter which displeased him. The deceased is represented by the board ers as having been an unusually polite and inoffensive servant. At the time the shot was fired several of the waiters were in collision with Herbert. Mr. Wallach, the Editor of the Star, was severely whipped this afternoon in Willard’s Hotel, by Major Heiss, formerly of the Union newspaper, whom he insulted for de clining to recognize him as a gentleman. Wallach was armed, as usual, but failed to use his weapons. Charles Whitney, of New York, has filed at the S tate Department an affidavit from Captain Tinklepaugh, of the steamer Oriza ba, setting forth the interference of Captain Carleton, of the British frigate Eurydice, at San Juan del Norte on the last trip, who forbade all passengers having tickets from leaving the ship. Evidence is also presented that the British force forbade the American passengers who came down the river from communicating with the shore at San Juar, and that the British boats exercised a close surveillance over all Americans while there. Secretary Dobbin says most decisively that these outrages cannot be permitted to pass unrebuked. The subject was before the Cabinet to-day, but the decision, if any, has not transpired. It is evident that here is a new and fruitful source of probable mis understanding with Great Britain. Methodist General, Conference. This body is still in session at Indianapo lis. Among other subjects of discussion in troduced, that of slavery has been brought forward by overtures from several confer ences. From the Epis:opal address, we gather the following facts : EDUCATION. There are, under the patronrge and super vision of our churches, fourteen chartered institutions under the name and style of univessity or college, in which liberal educa tion is as thorougly and successfully impart ed as in similar schools, under the supervi sion of other denominations of state author ities. Hundreds of the sons of our mem bers and friends are being annually trained in these institutions for posts of honor and usefulness in the state and in the church. In addition to these we may have some sev enty or more academies or seminaries most of them of a igh grade, affording ample literary advantages to our youth of both sexes. Several of these institutions, how ever, some of them with collegiate power, are exclusively appropriated to female edu cation. PERIODICALS The number of subscribers to various pe riodicals is as follows : Christian Advocate and Journal 29,876 Western Christian Advocate 28,718 Northern “ “ 15,000 Northwest “ “ 10,033 Pittsburgh “ “ 8,000 Sunday School “ 114,000 Missionary “ 34,000 Christian Apologist, (German,) 6,967 Quarterly Review 2,721 National Magazine 15,875 Ladies’ Repository 29,580 The whole number of subscribers to va rious periodicals is 285,461, and the whole number of single copies of these useful pub lications issued and scatteied abroad in a year is, 9,097,840. The Sunday School, the Tract, and Gene ral Catalogues have been enlarged during the last four years by the addition of 543 new woiks, including 314 bound volumes, and 585 tracts, The Sunday School Library in its various series now numbers 1,066 volumes. The list of tract publications has already reached the respectable number of 72 tract volumes, and 585 tracts, including quite a number of separate copies of books and tracts, large and small, issued by the two Concerns during the last four years, is 15,- 588,926, including 7,226,409 bound volumes, and 8,362,517 tracts and pamphlets. THE TRACT CAUSE. The action of the last General Conference in reference to the tract cause gave a new impulse to this impportant enterprise. Nearly all the Annual Conferences have formed auxiliaries, liberal contributions have . been received, and the distribution of tracts and books, both bv churches and colpor teurs. has been greatly increased. The sys tem, however, is not yet fully matured, and the uniformity and insistency of action, requisite for complete success, has not yet been attained. SUNDAY SCHOOLS. The Sunday School cause is certainly among the most efficient auxiliaries of the g<ispel ministry’. It is the hope of our chil dren, and they are the ho e of the chorcb. By our published reports it appears that we have an aggregate of 10,469 Sunday schools, 113,159 officers and teachers, and 579,116 scholars, making a very gratifying increase in this department during the past four years. A Valuablle Woman. —Miss Peggy Land, a young woman of Pickens county, South Carolina District, about twenty-four years of age, after trying weaving, carding, spinning and sewing last year, went to firming, and made cotton, which netted her SIOO. Her corn crop was two hundred and fifty bushels, worth 60 cents per bushel, and she made thirty-five bushels of wheat, worth one dollar and fifty cents per bushel. She accomplished this herself, without assistance of hiring. She ploughed, drove the cart, cut her wheat, and cribbed her corn. Difficulty Settled. —A late arrival from Venezuela states that the difficulty be tween that country and Holland has been amicably settled, and that great praise is due to the foreign ministers ror their exer tions in bringing this unfortunate affair to a speedy termination. Prominent among them is Hon: Charles Eames, American Minister . resident in Vas-^ River Item. We noticed in the Pioneer, a morning or two since, that our neighbors of that jour nal—if we are to take its “ River News ” as a standard—are partial to boats that are not in the “ Dubuque Line.” Our neighbors are, of course, masters of their own busi ness in this respect, and all others ; but we think that St. Paul’s interest is to give a “Fair show” to all the boats, and all the lines of boats that choose to run in the trade. The Granite State and Golden Era, of the Galena line, and the Fanny Harris, of the Dubuque line, have arrived since Wednesday afternoon. The Golden Era “ made time ” on her last trip down, —having arrived at Galena in 22 hours from St. Paul, after mak ing fourteen landings, and taking in a full supply of w od along the way. We are in debted to Mr. Chaa. Hinde, of the Golden Era, for Galena and Dubuque papers of Tuesday. The New York, from Pittsburgh, and the Minnesota Belle, from St. Louis, arrived yesterday afternoon. More Improvements —Capt. David Bart ley will soon commence the erection of a brick block at the corner of St. Anthony and Washington street, upon the old site of San ford’s store. Griswold, down in the lower apartment of the Minnesotian building, has received the main portion of his spring stock, and is now ready to clothe the people in any kind of dress that they may desire. Call in and take a view of his stock. St. Croix Items. —A friend at Taylor’s Falls writes us under date of the 14th, that on the previous morning, at eight o’clock, the house of M. M. Samuels, at St. Croix Falls, was burned to the ground. We regret to learn, by the same source, that on Saturday last, Mr. Henry Bush, an old resident of Taylor’s Falls, while engaged in blasting rock, was severely injured. Ilis face and eyes were badly burned, and his right hand almost torn to pieces. Another man, working with him, had both his eyes destroyed. Taylor’s Falls is driving rapidly ahead under the general prosperity of the season. The “ Chisago House ” —one of the best hotels in the Territory—has been greatly enlarged, and n jw has capacity to accommo date all the travel that may pass that way. The dining-room is superior in extent and capacity to any outside of St. Paul in this upper country; and travelers who have stopped there since the new improvement, do say that the Chisago House cannot be surpassed in all this region. If we could run away from business for about three days at this season of the year, wo would certainly “ slope” for Taylor’s Falls, and stop at the Chisago House. DIED.
