Oh, weave the holy ehaina-with joy Ring forth, glad bella, your round" lay! While songs of praise our lips employ, For Christ the Lord was born to-day Gragresa. The House has passed the census bill. Mr. Mungen, of Ohio, made a violent speech in favor of repudiation, which called out Mr. Brooks and several other Democrats, in opposition to any such measure, and assurances from them that the Democratic party is in favor of paying the public debt to the last dollar. Finally, after a spicy de bate, a resolution denouncing repudia tion as dishonorable to any public body proposing it, was passed by a vote of 123 to 1—the solitary vote being that of Mr. Jones, of Kentucky. On Friday, Senator Ramsey intro duced a Till abolishing the franking privilego, and providing for stamps and stamped envelopes for the public busi ness. The bill for the reconstruction of Georgia, was again considered, and after a lengthy debate the amendment to the bill making the adoption of the XVth amendment compulsory on the Legislature before the admission of the State, was adopted, Vlnd the 45 to 5. bill GEO. n. OTIS, passed, Jhe Meaange and the Congress. The Democrat of last week appeared, groaning over the late message of Presi dent Grant, and letting out a three-quar ter column article on the Congress. Of the message there is nothing about it particularly brilliant or creditable," yet it says in the same article that a good many of the recommendations are sound and sensible," and the wicked est and meanest thing about the mes sage is the recommendation that the State of Georgia be remanded back to a condition of rebellion." It is unkind in President Grant not to please the democracy. But somehow, the people appear to admire the document. It seems to have "the ring of the true tnetal that they have confidence in 4he government, and feel that we are gradually, but surely, sailing on to bet ter things When you speak of the finances and tariff as in the interests of the bondholders,capitalists and bloat ed manufactures," and the message as opposed, in a measure, to the interests of the western farmer and laboring people," you are only talking bun .combe. You are simply throwing dirt jn your own eyes. Your speciality of great love for the poor man is simply you vote my tieket and I will blow your horn." It amounts to no more nor less. The constant harp that the laboring people are enthralled, and can only be rescued by the Democratic party, is mere bosh, gotten up for no good to the laboring class, for which thje E^pocracy pretend to have so much sympathy. The names Jacobin'' and revolt* tionary," as used by the Democrat towards the Congress, are simply borrow ed., They are not of late origin. Since the* Democracy has lost power, they have constantly heaped upon the peoples representatives aH manner of epitaphs, and tho consolation is, they are fallin harmless. No doubt the Congress will continue its labors, notwithstanding this latest effusion, and probably it will compare favorobly, if not excel many of the Democratic sessions we have read of. Suffice it to say, that our neighbors' idoas of political economy, is limited, and since he with tho balance of the party has swallowed that aw ful nigger," and discarded the repudia tion notions to long entertained, and entered on life, there possibly may be some hope of a reform.

The late fall and thus far »Tito winter —usually one of the most settled sea sons of tho year, the weather has been as changeable as the partiality of the most incorrigible flirt that ever sported rata'1 aud a waterfall." In fact they have been the most disagree able months I ever passed in Minne sota, having had cold and warm wea ther, rain, snow pnd wind, following each other so closely that it required a man of very fino perceptive qualities, indeed, to tell when the several chang es took place. RAILROAD MATTERS. On Monday, tho 13th, the formal opening of the first section of twenty miles of the St. Paul and Chicago H. R., connecting Hasting^by mail with this city, was celebrated with appropriate ceremonies. On the same day trains on the St.Paul and Sioux City road com menced running through to Crystal Lake, a station beyond and south and west of Mankato While, what may be termed active operations" have been generally sus pended on the unfinished roads that internet our State, to give us short and direct communication with the cast, and to pour into our laps at no very distant day, the tenfold wealth of the rich but as yet undeveloped territory that lies westward, ho," on all there is more or less doing. The Wiuona and St. Peter are surveying their line through from its present terminus to the Minnesota River, preparatory tomakiug that conniption* next season. The St. Paul and Sioux City, and the Southern Minnesota will a?so take important steps toward reaching their terminus another season. The Superior road has a large force employed at its Duluth end, and that road will be open to busi ness early in the season, while the St. [Paul and Pacific, which has made such giant strides the past season, will open up in the spring with a view that will put their road through to the Red River of the north, before the snow flies next fall. Other roads, the completion of which, will inure to the benefit of St. Paul and the State at large, are also making on." Thus one by one are the iron links being united which are to make St Paul the great railroad and commercial center of the Northwest, and ths—pride ani glory of the people of Minnesota, the to-be richest diadem in all the bright constellation of North western States. GROWTH OF THE CITY The substantial growth of St. Paul the past year has, when the stringency of the money market and the general derangement of business generally is considered, been truly remarkable. And a feature that shows better as compared with former years, is the fact that a very large per eentage of this growth, has been in the line of dwelling houses for the laboring class, showing the presence here of an industrious, hopeful and thrifty population, con stantly increasing the money value of tho improvmento which reaches the magnificent figure of $1,395,727 of which 9581,275 was for dwellings, $290,250 in business blocks, 836,577 in school houses, $41,500 in churches, and the balance in hotels, for the Cus tom House, &e. AFTER TUX GAMBLER8 Quite a flurry has beeu created among the fancy" of this city by the aetion of the Grand Jury. This body at its recent sitting in the interests of good government and morality in our Saintly eity, presented names of all the gambling fraternity, for a violation of the ordinanoe prohibiting the practice of this calling within the corporate lim. its. On Saturday some half a dozen of the most notorious, appeared before the District Court, and gave bail to put ia an appearance in person, when their cases should come up. That the courts may deal out justice to them with no unsparing hand, is devoutly to be hoped. THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE. Though rather late, and not exactly in my line a St Paul correspondent of the TRANSCRIPT, I cannot refrain from saying a few words in reference to the first annual message of President Grant. This document was looked forward to with great anxiety by both political friend and foe by the former, with confident expectations that by it President Grant would give vital evi dence of his future, for the high posi tion to which he had been elevated, and by the latter, in the hope that their sneers at his lack of experience and in compenteney, would be confirmed. It is hardly necessary at this late day, to say the message more than justified the expectations of his friends, while it struck a death blow to the hopes of his foes. His elear comprehensive, patri otic and statesmanlike suggestion, the thorough knowledge shown of all sub jects discussed, his determined demand that the «lovernment should be adminis tered economically and honestly, have met with an enthusiastic responso from the whole American peoplo, excepting alone that magnificent class of politi ticians who act upon this principle that their duty to the party demands of them opposition to every thing said or done by a political opponent. Now let Congress meet Grant squarely aud bop estly upon the same elevated ground, and his administration will be act suc cessful and beneficial to the country, as was his carcer as a soldier. IIARD TIMES. Wecan no longer sing that very com fortable old dittny running something like this: Oh, hard tiuics, hard times come again no more. They aro upon us in good earnest, and all classes, the business man, the employer and the euiployco, severally feci its approval to 0UKT greater or less -yr extent. And the pros pect is not flattering for an early resump tion of a better state of affairs. It be hoves every prudent man to "put his iuse in order," to lay aside all useless extravagance, to live close, and to pay as he goes, wlrile the more fortunate, should not be backward in giving, if worthy, his less fortunate neighbor a lift. If the present stringency should be t'ao means of causing our people gener ally to discard many of the useless ex travagances now dictated by the God dess of fashion, and return to that com fortable and more becoming simplicity of the early days of the Republic, this visitation of hard times would not have come upon us in vain. THE WINNEPEG REBELLION. Late advices from tho Red River country are to the effect, that Gov. McDougall has formed an alliance with the Swampy and Santee Indians, for the purpose of putting down the half breed rebellion. These two tribes of Indians are represented as a worthless, treacherous set, the latter tribe embrac ing many of those engaged in the In dian massacre in this State in 1862. If tho report of Gen. McDougall's action should prove true, Minnesota is much more deeply interested in this matter than was at first supposed. The half breeds thus far have ab stained from using their Indian^allies. which arc represented to be mucn more powerful than those to be employed by McDougall. But when McDougall at tempts to enter upon his Governorship by the aid of the tribes named, the half breads will meet him with the same weapons, and thus will be inaugurated upon our borders, a bloody Indian war, from which the border settlors adjoin ing would be sure to suffer. The sub ject has been brought to the attention of Gen. Hancock, and it is probable that should there be well grounded fear of such an encounter, that suffi cient United States troops would be sent to that section to protect the lives and property of our citize ns. Merry Christmas to you and yours, andthemamy readers of the TRANS CRIPT. W. Letter ftrom California. SANTA CI-ARA, CALIFORNIA, November 30th, 1869. Editor Transcript:—We left Austin November the 3rd, 1869, for California. We started in wagons, intending to take the cars, on the Iowa Division of the Illinois Central R. R., at Osage, and from there by rail to Sanfrancisco. But on arriving at St. Anger, we found, that though the road was completed for three miles north of St. Anger, that on account of some difficulty between the company and contractors, they were not carrying freight or passengers north of St. Charles. We stoped at St. Anger over night, and started at daylight next morning for Mitchel expecting to take the stage from there to St. Charles a light driz fling rain was falling, when we left St. Anger, which increased to a drench ing shower before we reached Mitchel. After leaving St. Ansger for Mitchel and when some one mile or more*on the way our better-half discovered that her gold watch had been left under her pillow, and Henry was dispatched back on foot, to get the watch, and come up with us at Mitchel. He suc ceeded in getting the watch and over took us before reaching that place. Before he reachod us another of our company found that her veil had been left at the hotel also, but too late to be recovered. When we reached Mitchel we found that we could not be accommodated with stages till we reached Osage, so on we went for that place. We took breakfast at Osage and found that stage accommodations could not be had for our company (12 in number) and parties asked from 16 to 21 dollars to carry us to St. Charles a distance of 18 miles, which we declined paying, and our friend E. A. Snow carried us on to St. Charles, which place we reached at 4 p. M. But our mishaps were not over for that day, for your humble servant leav ing the Hotel in a hurry happened to get another man's over-coat instead oi his own, which mistake was not dis covered till some two miles on the way. There was no help for it, back we had to go, but there chanced to be a man just ahead of us with a light two horse wagon, also going to St. Charles, hail ing him, and informing him, that we were in distress and travelers, he turned his horses towards Osage—took us into his buggy,—carried us back to Osage where we exchanged over coats, and overtook our company a few miles be fore reaching St. Charles, having pick ed up by the road a walking Btick which one of our company had droped. Our company seemed to be doing finely —four mishaps the second day from home—but we were all getting on even footing and one could not laugh at another. But these occurrences were of benefit to us, for it taught us to look more strictly after oir baggage, and on our whole trip nothing was lost or mis placed afterward. St. Atfger appears to be a nice place of considerable business, and the coun try around it is very good, the prairie from Otranto to St. Anger and from St. Anger to Osage, is as fine and rich, as one cuuld wish to see but there ap pears to be a scarcity of timber. St. Anger contains probably 500 inhabi. tants. Milchcl hardly met our expec tations, it looks old and dilapidated Whether the completion of the 11. R, will infuse new life and energy into it, roinains to be seen. Osage is quite a fine town contain ing about two thousand inhabitants, lias some good buildings, good stores, well stocked with goods, and one good Hotel and perhaps more, it any nte the one where we stoped was orderly, clcan, and well kept. At 7 p. m., of Thursday, w© left St. Charles,on the cars of t|ie Iowa division of tho Illinois Central R.R., for Farley, which place we reached at 3 o'clock A. M. of Friday, 1 he road from St. Charles to Farley, is very rough and unpleasant to rido upon, and allowing us to be tho judgo, we would say badly officered. Our conductor oil tho first divisiou from St. Charles, was a man of rnelium size, VOL & AUSTIN, MOWER COUNTY, MNflUTHURSDAY, DECEMBER 23,1869. black hair, black eyes, black moustaclic and whiskers, with a heart blacker than all combined one of those cross grained snarling curs, who seem to think that because they have a brief author ity, they aro priviliged to snap and snarl at every one that asks a civil ques tion But what he lacked in civility, he made up in charges! He took from a poor woman, her last dime to pay for a child only five years old. He made us pay half fare for our little boy who has traveled with us over the St. Paul aud Milwaukee R. R-, and from Farley to St. Clara in California, and none of the conductors ever asked us to pay one cent for him, except this selfimportant black haired individual conductor, from St. Charles going south We would be glad to give his name but did not learn it. Our friends who contemplate coming to California, had better go by Chicago, they will save time and money by so doing and if they come by the Illinois Central they might make the acquaintance of this black haired, self important, individual conductor, on the train from St. Charles In our whole trip from Austin to Santa Clnra, California, we have found the conductors polite and kind, with the exception of this single individual, and the 111. Central, ows it to the travel ing public, to employ gentlemen on their road as conductors. Tho conduct ors and employees, of the Union and Central Pacific are intelligent scber and accommodating men. They can hardly be to highly praised. S. R. G. The News. A blow was aimed at the Mormons by the passage of a resolution in the lower house of Congress instructing the Committee on Public Lands to inquire into the necessity of prohibiting, by law entries of public lands by persons in open hostility to tho laws of the United States. Such a law would he a proper ore under any circumstances, and if thoroughly enforced might do much toward bringing the Mormons to a re alizing sense of the fact that there is another authority than Brigham Young that requires obedience of them. THE question of reciprocity with Canada was settled in the negative, by the adoption of a resolution in tho low er house of Congress declaring that the sentiment of the House accords with the opinion expressed in the Pres ident's message, that a renewal of the treaty of reciprocity with the British provinces would bj wholly in favor of the British producer, and 'should not in our preseut condition, be favorably considered." The vote stood 129 ayes to 42 noes. The Chicago Post says: Miss Lizzie Boynton, of Indiana, announces herself for Congress. She has bluo eyes, short hair, a prominant nose—and such cheek! Another detachment of troops has arrived in Cuba from Spain. The Senate Finance Committee will introduce no measure until after the holidays. The new postal treaty with Great Britian goes into operation on the first of January. Attorney General Hoar has been nominated to be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the Uuited States. It is said" from Madrid that ar rangements are perfected for proulaim cng the Duke of Genoa, King of Spain about Christmas The House committee. on Indian Affairs will reccommcnd that as many Indian treaties as possible be annulled and that Congress provide for the main tenance of the various tribes. There is rumor from Russia that a plot has been discovered for an insur rection to take place on the 17th of Fchuary, the anniversary of the eman cipation of the serfs. A number of New York dry goods houses failed on the 16th. The South Carolina Legislature pass ed a bill to pay its debts of $6,183,349 in coin. Several Republican Senators are re ported as opposed to the confirmation of Judge Hoar to the Supreme bench. Cincinnati claims to have brewed 15, 295 barrels of beer in November. Gen. James S. Ncgley, on the I6th, delivered the annual address before the Society of the Army of the Cnnberland, at Indianapolis. The banquet in the evening was a splendid affair, in which 600 guests participated. Gen. Butler replies to a letter from Horace Greely that he cannot favor a general removal of the political disabil ities created by the XVth amendment. McFarland, who killed Richardson, was formally indicted by the grand jury on the 17th. Judge Barnard has removed the Hon. Ben. \JT°°d as receiver in a lot tery case, and appointed the Hon.

The Internal Revenue deparment has determined to arm its officers stationed in the Southern States, for personal protection. The Red River troubles are again the theme of sensation. The rebels are in full posession of the country. The revolution is a success. THE TRANSORIFT, published at Aus tin, Minnesota, comes to us this week with the name of our typo friend, Geo. H.
