Brooks Hears from Winona !
The Dog Noble, alias Erastus Brooks, edre
tor of the New York Express, cousin-ifl-
Border-Ruffianism to the •* Running Brooks ”
of South Carolina, has achieved the great en
terprise of procuring a Winona (Minnesota)
correspondent. Said_ correspondent writes
to the Dog Noble,'fhat Winona would be
safe for Fillmore and “ true American Prin
piples,” if Minnesota only had a “ chance
in ” this Presidential election, Ac., &c.
Whereupon the Dog Noble gives a fresh
bark at the empty squirrel-hole, and bow
wows that “ Minnesota is coming!”
Were there the least doubt that Brooks
did not concoct that letter in his own office,
or that he has been imposed upon by some
Winona wag, we would tell a truthful anec
dote about his Presidential candidate, Mr.
Fillmore, in which this same flourishing
young city of Winona is the scene and Mr.
Fillmore the hero. We believe we will tell
it anyhow so here goes :
As one of the crowd in the great Chicago
and Rock Island Railroad Excursion of 1854,
we were standing upon the boiler deck of the
Golden Era, when the fleet hove in sight of
that beautiful plain which first breaks the
monotony of bluffs above La Crosse, and
upon which Winona had pyen then given un
mistakable signs of her present prosperity.
Fillmore and Hall—Fillmore had just
finished bobbing his head and making
a speech at a wood-yard, where the
boys had cheered the crowd and not him
—Fillmore and Hall, of the firm of Fillmore,
Ilall & Haven, were seated within a few feet
of us. As the cleanly-painted buildings of
pioneer Winona met his eye, said Fillmore
to Hall, in a most despondingly earnest
tone, “ Well, Judge, the Land jobbers are
ahead of us, as usual, at this beautiful and
eligible point; no chance for speculating
here!”
If there is a bona fide correspondent of the
Dog Noble in Winona, will our friends of
the Republican please scare him up with a
0 dark lantern,” and call his attention to
jthe above truthful narrative ?
Running Dry.
The various reservoirs of abuse whepce
the Pro Slavery Allies draw their supplies
for use against Col. Frpmogt, sre beginning
to “ run emptins.” These courteous, noble
hearted opponents, who deplore personality,
and who cherish the memory of Ifenry Clay
pnd Daniel \JTebster s'ith ardent affection,
and who a year ago would have resented any
at tack upon the good name and fame of Col.
Fremont, have already, to their o\vn satisfac
tion, proved him everything that is bad. In
fhe short space of two months, they, the
Buchaniars and the Ivnow-Nothings, each
using their chosen arguments, (ind §nch lan
guage as pi jtheir view was most abusive,
have, as they say, proved the Col. to be—
Catholic, Thief, Cheat,

Another Recruit.— Thomas H. Benton,
Jr., long known and recognized as one of
the chief leaders of the Democratic party of
lowa, and a very great favorite of that or
ganization, has come out from the corruption
of the Pro-Siavery faction and declares him
self openly for Frejnont and Freedom. He
will work faithfully for Fremont’s success.
Mr. Benton is the nephew of Thomas H.
Benton, and consequently the cousin of
V par Jessie,” the brave wife of Col. Fre
mont. He resides at Council-Bluffs.
Lake Superior Mining Companies —An
exchange says the amount of capital invested
in the mining business of the Superior
region is much larger than has been general
ly supposed. No Jess than forty-six corpo
rate companies have been organized and are
now in full progress there. Twenty-four are
divided intp twenty .thousand shares each,
fourty ten thousand shares each, one
into twelve thousand shares each, one into
nine thousand, two into six .thousand each,
and one into sixty thousan<J.
Mr. Buchanan’s Nunc Dimittas.—Gov
ernor Brown, in his letter, gives to the
world the pious parting congratulations of
that political saint, James Buchanan. It is
in these words:
“ If I can be instrumental in settling the
slavery question, ( which means to admit
slavery into all the Territories,) then add
..Cuba to the Utffon, J will be willing to give
up the ghost.”
The good old Simeon of negro-driving
Democracy, if he can carry slavery to Kan
sas, Nebraska, Oregon and California, and
then prevent emancipation in Cuba by an
nexing it to the United States, will be will
ing to depart in peace 1 And this is the can
didate of the “ Democracy !”
Telegraph Wjß.es—l,t is paid to be the
intention of some of the telegraph compa
nies to bury the wires of their telegraph,
and a petition was, some time since, pre
sented by one of the corporations to the
New York City Councils, praying permission
to place .the conductors in trenches running
under the pavements.
CST A letter from Canton to a New
York paper, states .that a company of Amer
icans are building two steamers to run upon
the rivers of China, at first by way of expe
riment, and then to select that river for their
future course which proves the Boost profita
ble to them.

A F«ter*burger>i View of It. Paul.
St. Paul, Min., Aug. 12.
Though almost yet too new to this region
to give you any very imposing opinion of it,
nevertheless what I have seen of the place
impresses me very fayorably. It is a city
whose growth has been wonderful, for only
a few short years since, spd the site of this
new city was a howling wilderness —the
hunting grounds of the wild Indian, and its
lands worth the minimum goverment price
of one dollar and twenty-five cents per acre.
Then the river that laves its shores bore up
on its turbid bosom only the Indian’s light
canoe, and flow here stands a city boasting
of ten thousand inhabitants, and a clearly de
fined prospect of fifty per cent, increase an
nually !
Even here in St. Paul the holders of town
lots ask such prices for them as would put to
blush the property holders of Wall street,
New Yor|c. For lots that I at present should
think would be high at eight hundred dol
lars, they very cooly ask you ten thousand
for 1 and ev en tell you that they think it is
no favor on your part to buy it at that price,
as it will be sure to double its value in an
other year.
The prairie lands on the west bank of the
Mississippi are the most beautiful and mo t
fertile I ever beheld. The soil is of a dgrk,
rich loarn, to the depth of eight or ten feet,
and its producing qualities cannot be excelled
or exhausted. And truly, here indeed the
fapiner can sit under bis own vine and fig
tree, with none to molest him or make him
afraid.
The river, too, is crowded with activity of
mercantile life, and millions of dollars aie
carried on its surface in the shape of rafts,
the timber of which is the most yalqable gpd
certainly the most beautiful of any in the U.
States. The climate here in the spring, sum
mer and autumn, is truly dejightfnl and
healthy jpv hope that'could enter
the heart of m&n. It is a land of beauty and
ofgrandeur, “where looks the cottage out on
a doiflain a pajace cannot boast of.” With
such !* rich country laying back, capable of
producing all that is req ired for the comfort
of man, and with abundant means for ship
ping to market, the business of the city must
of necessity be large as well as in a sound
and healthy condition. Also, as the resour
ces of the Territory are being developed,
which day by day are fast coining to light
under the direction of skillful and scientific
men, new avenues of trade will be opened,
and tlios.e now in being largely increased;
and I doubt not but that a few year? wijl
fee St. Paul a second Chicago.
These hasty remarks on views suddenly
picked up by a stranger, may seem highly
colored ged somewhat overwrought to you
denizens of older places who are content with
an hnmbler destiny, so that some of you,
with a self-sufficient knowing shake of the
head, may doubt that these Golden Dreams
will ever be realized in a place like St. Paul.
But ust come out here, look at the charac
ter of its soil, its climate and its energetic,
enterprizing and highly intelligent people, its
immense strength in its infancy, and you can
doubt no longer that its maturity will be one
of unparalelled prosperity and greatness.—
Whefl my business'will permit, I sliall take
pleasure in forwarding my views upon St.
Paul to j T our Old Dominion readers again,
and I confidently expect my more matured
opinions of this “Far West” will but corrob
orate these, my early impressions.

The German Movement lor Freedom.
[From the Milwaukee Sentinel, Aug. 27.]
Market Ilall was crowded last night with
the Germans of our city, and many others,
assembled to hear addresses from Judge
Stallo, of* .G'ihciimat, aqd Francis A. Hoff
man, of Chicago.
The Ilall will accommodate, seated and
standing, full 1,500 people, and the masses
filled it full, apd many went away for lack
of room.
J udge Stallo is one of the most fascinat
ing speakers to whom we have ever listened,
ills manner is admirable, his voice clear and
distinct. Many who understand scarcely a
word of the German tongue, were kept
spell-bound by the inpre force of his manner,
while the effect among his countrymen was
electric, and again and again the jlall shook
with apylause.
After Judge Stallo concluded, Mr. II ff
man made an able address, and was listened
to attentively.
A false alarm of fire, got up, no doubt,
purposely to disturb tlie meeting by the
pleasant set of opponents that we have to
deal with, made but little impression on the
audience, and when Air; Paine spoke,
towards the close of the meeting, thp Hall
was still crowded.

Pennsylvania in Danger—The Army Bill.
Washington, Aug. 25.
There is a heavy pressure, by letter, tele
graph and personal representations, ypofl the
Democracy, froiy leading friends of Mr. Bu
chanan, to compromise on the proviso or
prepare for defeat in Pennsylvania. It was
probably under this inspiration that Mr.
Weller gave notice of a bill in the Senate to
day, substantially embodying, £s an indepen
dent proposition, Mr. Geyers amendment to
tlje Toombs bill, which deblares that no law
shall have force or effect in Kansas requiring
a test oath to support the Fugitive Slave
Law, or any legislative act as a qualification
for any ciyil office or'public trust or employ
ment or profession, .or to serve as a juror, oj
vote at any election, or which shall impose
any tax or condition to the exercise of the
right of suffrage by any qualified voter, or
which shall restrain or prohibit free discus
nio of any law or subject of legislation in
theTerritor}’’, or the free expression of opin
ion by Xlie peopLp. ’ ’'
The object of this movement is to relieve
the present difficulty on the Army -bill, an 1
at the same time to disembarrass'the Democra
cy from the odium of sustaining 6uch outra
geous laws. Considering the source, i,t is
clear that the party must be seriously con
cerned about both points, for Mr. Weller has
been most unyielding on that side.
Practically it is almost only a question of
time, and is so generally real zed, as to the
result of this contest.' When the adminis
tration can bring in all its absentees and their
allies, they cap control the House and pas 6
the bill in any form which the Senate may
dictate. The Republicans having done their
duty are ready for this triumph, just as they
are prepared for its premature accomplish
ment by men professing to act with them.

At tlie great ratification meeting at San
Francisco, full one-third of the long list of
officers belonged to the Democratic party,
and most of the for Fremont and
Dayton were from the same party.
Mr. Love, formerly of N. York, said:
I am happy to know that men, no matter
what their political opinions, flow speak
in California unmolested. [Cheers.] lliere
are men in California who dare to speak and
express whatever sentiments they entertain.
Opponents may now call me what they
please, yet I can be heard by my fellow citi-*
zens.
[The speaker’s allusion to free speech crea
ted continuous excitement.]
Gentleman, I have nothing particular to
say against the opposing candidates of the
Republic m party as mel; but who does not
know that it has ever been the policy qf the
Democratic party to crush all attempts at
internal improvements, even where they
were most needed. We all know it. It was
so in Polk’s administration, in Pieice’s, and
it will be so hereafter. If they had come out
openly and honestly in the last Convention,
and fairly said “We are in favor of a Pa
cific Railway,” we should not complain much
of them, but as it is, they merely promise to
protect the interests of our State, and when
they get in power, they intend to do as they
please. We all know that we ought to have
that road, and we must have it! Why, in
the certainty of our glorious Republican vic
tory, I think I can hear the cars coming ;
the shrill whistle now echoing up the Sierra
Nevada, over the Fremont route ; a stream
of light is bursting from the east and gleam
ing to the west. A I.ttle spot, no bigger
than a man’s band, has risen and spread un
til it has become a vast cloud, which in tri
umph of Republican principles, will shed a
glorious shower of benefits to the Union—to
us all.
The Hon. Wilson Flint said:
I formerly belonged to the Democratic
party, but abandoned the party, like others,
to lend my feeble aid in attempting to reform
the State. I can now see no hope for Cali
fornia save in Fremont and the Republican
party. In Almeda county, where I belong,
we have already formed a Fremont and Day
ton Club. Many prominent Democrats as
sisted in forming the Club, and others l ave
since signed their names. At its formation
several prominent men addressed the meet
ing, among whom was Judge Crane, a Dem
ocrat, and a man universally esteemed. The
Democratic party in Almeda county is en
tirely broken up. I have canvassed the
whole county to ascertain the feelings of the
citizens. I visited the farmer in the harvest
field and at his work, and can safely say
that fiw out of eyery six are in favor of J.
C. Fremont. California will no doubt come
nobly forward next November, and give cur
nominees a handsome maj rity.
Honorable Testimony. — The Rome Sen
tinel, a strong and able Buchanan organ, de
votes a leader, this mornjng, to an answer to
the question from the Albany Statesman,
Do the American people want a Catholic
for President ?”
W.e must quote a few extracts from this
bonorablp opponent ;
We think about as weak and foolish an
argument as has bqen used against Mr.
Fremont, is that in relation to his religion.
We don ? t believe that if the whole voting
community knew it to be a positive fact that
Fremont is a Catholic, that it would make
100 votes difference against him in the
whole state of New York. We dofl’t be
lieve that the people are }’et prepared to os
tracise a man on account of his religious
views.
If political capital can he made against a
nominee, because he is a Catholic, then it
can and should be urged against him,
should he chance to be a Methodist, Baptist,
Presbyterian, &c., or of any other denomi
nation.
It is true that that there is a feeling ex
isting in the minds of some against the Ca
tholics, and as for that matter there is
against every church. But it 6o happens in
this canvass that those who would vote
against Mr. Fremont, other things in their
opinion being equal, on account of Catholi
cism, belong to the rabid school of aboli
tionists. The same persons as a general
thing, who have a prejudice against the Ca
tholics, have a still stronger feeling in re
lation to the abolition of slavery.
Wie have not the least doubt that if the
Philadelphia Contention had nominated
Archbishop Hughes, or the Pope of
Rome, for President, and they had stood on
the slavery question, as many of the anti-
Catholic abolitionists think Fremont stands,
these kind of would forego
their dislike of Catholicism, and vote for the
Archbishop or the Pope, on account of the
slavery question.
We dislike this making war on a man, on
account of his religious belief; we have no
doubt that this sort of bigotry and reli
gious intolerance, has contributed more to
the spread of infidelity, than the writings
of Vqltairc, or all the infidel writers in the
world.
Will the Scotch editor and Irish local of
the American organ get their wool together,
and see what they can make out of this se
vere rebuke from a pro-slavery, Union-sav
ing Buchanan organ —Utica N. Y., Telegraph.
Hon. John Brough. —In the last Shield
we (Mansfield, Ohio, Herald) find an ex
tract saying that Mr. Brough would give
Buchanan his hearty support. This we
know to be untrue. >Ye rode with him from
Crestline to Cleveland, and stopped at the
same hotel. And in repeated conversations
he expressed his abhorrence of the Cincin
nati Platform, and remarked “ Under no
circumstances can J he induced to support
Mr. Buchanan, standing as he does upon that
platform.” We have never heard the cor
ruptions of any party so mercilessly exposed
as those of the Administration by Mr.
B/ough. He also spoke of the Nicholson
letter, and characterized it as “ the most
dangerous document ever written by an
American pen.” The doctrines therein
taught were the seeds of all our troubles,
and the only probabje source ,we had yet seen
of danger to the country.
Death or an Ohio Pioneer —The Cler-
mont Courier announces the death of Col
Thomas Kain, who was born near the mouth
gl the Little Miami, in 1790. He resided
for sixty years in Clermont county, served
in the war of 1812 as JTirst Lieutenant, was
made prisoner of by Hull’s surrender,—,
was upon his parple of hon
or, and returned home after an absence of
five months. Col. Kain was probably the
oldest native of Ohio, living in the State.—
We know him well.
The German Vote.—The~ Pro-SlaTery
papers are beginning to abuse th? Germans,
which is a pretty sure sign that the lft6han
iers despair of securing their votes. The
Richmond Whig, which is a disinterested
spectator of the struggle between the Demo
crats and the Republicans, and cares not
which party gains the Teutonic influence,
says :—“Everywhere they seem to be enter
ing the canvass for Fremont with remarka
ble spirit and energy. What the Buchanan
Democracy can hope for, when they see their
German legions straying off from them, we
are unable to comprehend. Certain it is, in
pur judgment, the German defection in the
North will insure the complete and over
whelming overthrow of the Democracy.”
The N. York State Register speak- j
ing of the “ American” candidate for the
Governorship of York, says:—The
American Fillmore party b&ve not yet made
their nominations. Their choice will proba
bly fall upon Erqstus Brocks, of the Express,
or upon Gustavus Adolphps Scroggs, of Ruf
fal\ We are intensely American all over—
from the top of our head to the little toes on
our feet; but we cannot support either of
these last named chaps for Governor of this
great State. They are individually and col
lectively too small potatoes for our use. 'Sye
could not vote for a man who has suph an
abominable name as Gustavus Adolphus
Scroggs. We could go Scroggs, if it was
John Scroggs, or Peter Scroggs, but the Gua
tavus Adolphus is too much. We cannot
vote for a man with heathenish names that
would render the Gubernatorial Chair the
laughing stock of Christian Eupope.
£3SC” Lieut. Governor Fprd has been do
ing a good work in Pennsylvania. The Pitts
burg Gazette says the meeting appointed for
him have been uniformly well attended. At
Hollidaysburg the meetings was the largest
ever held in the place; at Huntington it was
too large for the Court House and had to be
held in the open air; and at Bedford it was
not only largely attended, but made inroads
upon the Democrats. At Huntington, 11.
N. McAllister, Esq., hitherto a prominent
Democrat, followed Ford in a powerful Fre
mont speech. The ball is rolling!
Chenango County all Alive.— This
county in the State of New York has been
one of the counties always counted upon for
from six hundred to a thousand Democratic
majority. But the tide has turned. In the
township of Oxford, in that county, a call is
out for the formation of a Fremont Club,
which is signed by three hundred, of whom
at least one-half have hitherto acted with the
Democrats. Some of the most prominent
men in that place head this call.
New York Central Railroad Loan
English correspondents of Messrs. Duncan,
Sherman & Co. are understood to have taken
already about $250,000, of the recent half
million seven per cent, loan of the New
York Central Railroad Company. Of this
they had return by the Baltic, and the bonds
have gone forward.
