MINNESOTA. WeMDer-Crope reat Btrm PhllsWIel" ptltst- nallroade Orowth of ! State) politic. Jtom our own Corretfiondenl. Ft. Paul, Minn., July 29, 1968. Onr Eastern vleltors, who, durln tho last month, have crowded the villages aud towns of our State, coming with shawls and overcoats to ehield themselves Irom the cool winds of this climate, have been sadly dUapiotnted by the weather here. The enme thermometers thatran down to thirty degrees below zero here lust win ter, have this month ran nimbly up to a hun dred in the thade. Even the cool retreat of Minnehaha failed to afford relief from the swel tering sun, and the sliver spray of the laughing waters seemed some duva liko the stream from a hot shower bath. Ever and anon, however breezes from over the wide prniries have reas sured us of our latitude, and of our cool advan tapes over our Eustcin neiRhlors. The early spriuc, and eteady warm weather nightly alternated by showers, have given great and sudden growth to all kind of crops, espe c'.ally to wheat, our staple product. If wheat Is injured at all, It has been by the intense and fteady heat of this month, too hastily rtpcnlni? and shrinking it. Many estimate the average yield throughout the State at twenty bushels per acre, while others set it at even a higher rate. The great broad waving uclds ot golden grain, some a thousand and more acres in exteut, have, for the ten days or two weeks past, been bowing before the reapf rs. Laborers for this service have been In preut demand, aud have received wages from three to five dollars a day. A great storm pitted over this section of tho State yesterday aod last night. The wind, rain, lightning, nnd thunder, were on a scale of mag nificence such as the great West alone can ooci elounlly produce. It effected considerable alarm in this vicinity, but whether it did great damage to the wheat still unreaped throughout the State, has not yet been ascertained. Among the many visitors who have recently arrived here from the East Is a party of Phila delphians who reached here four or five days ago, coming all the way In a palace car fur. Cished by the Pennsylvania Central Railroad. Among the party was Sir. Thompson, President of Pennsylvania Central; Mr. Hinckley, Presi dent of Philadelphia, Baltimore aud Washington XUilroad; Mr. V7. ClarK, backer; Mr. Leland, of the Press, Colouel Moon head, Mr. Lippincott, and others, nccompanicd by a number of ladies. Most of them arc interested in the Mississipp1 and Lake Superior Railroad, now being con structed Irom this city to the head of Lake Supe rior, a distance of about one huudred and fifty miles. The first engine (splendid one of the Philadelphia make) was dedicated aud set to running on the 21th of lat month The road is expected to be completed in two years, and the tourist can then make a delight ful trip from Philadelphia to the Mississippi, up that noble liver to this point, and return Eas by the Lakes. Wm. L. Banning, a former Phila delphlan, is President of the road. Philadelphia Is not only largely interested in this road, but the capital aud energy of many of its inhabitants and of the State is observable in nearly every portion of Minnesota. This State la growing wonderfully. Young men of enterprise, hard-working farmers from the Eastern States, hardy, industrious emigrants from Northern Germany and Norway, are Cocking in, butlding towns, and making the broad prairies bloom and blossom like the rose. The frigid atmosphere of "six months of the year" may be a bugbear to the shiycrms dwellers amid the damp changeable blasts of the Atlantic coast; but It is delightful to those who here have breathed the clear, dry, steady, invigorating atmobphere during that time, and it is no bug bear to the farmer who Is enabled by the sud den warmth of spring to plant and sow earlier than his brethren of Pennsylvania or New York. The mineral resources ot the State are just beginning to be developed. To-day, a ton of gold quartz, Drought from Vermillion Lake, in Et. Louis county, north of Lake Superior, was sent to Chicago to be assayed by the Chicago Mining 13oaid by tho Tyndall process. The mines of lesser metals are also beiug worked throughout the State Bt. Paul, twenty jean ago an Indian rendez tous, is now a city of some twenty thousand inhabitants, with five railroads centring here running in as many directions, aud others in contemplation. Although this town and county are strongly Democratic, it does not have the effect of putting the whole State at all in sym pathy with the Seymour and Blair family com bination, lion. I. Donnelly, who represents this district in Congress, has returned here from Washington, and will at once commence to canvass for his nomination and re-election, which, owing to the defection among his Re publican friends, will bo a hard fight for him. The GraLt and Colfax ticket will sweep the State by many thousand majority; but owing to the confidence felt of an easy victory in fighting tinder such an ever-cou a tiering banner, the enthusiasm will not be as great as in former contests with the same enemy; but, neverthe less, the victory will bo as sure. W. II. D. An Extraordinary Scone in Ireland. The Belfast papers describe an extraordinary scene before the bouse of the man Baird, in Monaghan, Irom which the Orangemen recently fired upun their assailants. Att'T the iuqaet on the body of Ilughevwho died from tho wound then received, his irionJt male a pro cession, carrying the remains in trout of a hearse. When tliey arrived oppo.ite Baird's the procession halted, as by previous concert, aoit the whole number, above two thcusaud men, kneeling down, shouted "Murder, murder," and prayed maledictions upon Baird and his house hold. "Kor iuily twenty miuutes," the Belfast Aeica Letter sajs, 'they cur ed him aud hli family in a matiiier dreadful to liaen to. Tut y then got olf their knees and the collin was raited to the shoulders of the six yottng men who had proviouslv curried it.

It is to the credit of several of the Komau Catholic pne.tbnod of the town that they strove to persuade tho Roman Catholic mob not to attack the Uianicmeri. At tho graveyard the Hev. Mr. Duiley. the pari-h priest, addressed those assembled In a manner calculated to allay excitement. ' He had done bis utmost to keep the people uuder his care from being engaged In any disturbances but his advice had not been attended to, and' those w ho loved the danger must just perUu therein." The military detachmeut has been withdrawn irom the town, and all apprehension Of a renewal of rioting lias ceased. Rumor has M'lle Nilaon engaged (o an Englishman. TOE DAILY EVENING TELEGIlAPIIPIIELADELrillA, TUESDAY, Sonthern Aceonnt or Governor Humphrey' Expnlslon Irom tho Unbernatorlal Mansion. Onr readers can scarcely have forgotten the very recent occurrence of Governor II am phreys expulsion from the Gubernatorial mansion of Jackson, Mississippi, following a correspondence in which on the one hand he had been repeatedly notified by the authorities to vacate the house, but in which, on the other hand, he had persisted in asserting his right and intention to continue to oooupy it. We have excellent grounds for saying that the disagreeable duty of placing Governor Humphreys uuder the stress which occasioned his vacating the premises was performed with all the courtesy compatible with the employ ment of forces in the contingency of resistance to the order. It is, however, in keeping with the usual political misrepresentation emanat ing from the South, that even the performance of this aot, executed with the greatest dolioacy compatible with circumstances, has not escaped unjust animadversion from Governor Hum phreys' over-zealous friends. We give below the expected sequel to the transactions pub lished in our issue of a few days ago: THE CAPTCRH OF TUB EXECUTIVE MANE ION AT TUB TOIST OF THE BAYONET. From the Fort U lOion Standard, July 20. Those of our readers who have seen the correspondence between Governor Humphreys and General Ames, will remember that Mon day, the 13th of July, was the day appointed by the latter for the attack upon the Execu tive mansion. Well, Monday morning came and with It the Yankee raid. Everything that belonged to the occupants was packed, and they were ready for the attack, which was made about twelve o'clock. Lieutenant Baulie, command ing a file of six soldiers, rode up to the gate, dismounted, and led the charge. Governor Humphreys met him at the front door, Iks Lieutenant said good morning, and offered his hand, which was not received. He said he wished to have a private interview (several friends of the Governor were in the mansion.) The Governor and Lieutenant walked into a front parlor, when the latter said he bad been sent by Colonel Biddle, commandant of the post, to take possession of part of the man sion. Governor Humphreys said that he refused to give it up. Lieutenant Baehe said that he had a note from Colonel Biddle to deliver in case a surrender was refused, and delivered it. Being asked if be would carry out the order, directing him to force a sur render, the Lieutenant replied that he would. Governor Humphreys then stepped to the door and called some of his friends in to hear what had passed, and requested the Lieutenant to repeat his question in their hearing, which after some hesitation on the part of the Lieu tenant and some insisting on the part of the Governor he did, and the same reply was made. The mansion having in this manner been forcibly occupied by the soldiers, a carriage and wagon was obtained and the family and baggage of Governor Humphreys left the house, good care being taken to secure a box of silver tvare, the private property of the family, against the hands of the intruders, who, flushed with viutory, were doubtless eager for the spoils. The family marched out of tUa yard through, an immense crowd of negroes, who had assembled in the frout yard to see the fun, many of them in a broad grin, and entering the carriage rode to a private boardiDg-house, everybody on the streets gazing at them as they passed. The Lieu tenant, duly sashed, sworded, and buttoned, with his hat on, which he had worn all the time, in full possession of the premises, prome naded the parlors. General Ames had not, at last accounts, moved into the mansion, but keeps a guard at the doors, day and night. He has had a billiard-table placed in one of the parlors, and, after dark, he and his triends go there and play billiards. Persons in the neighborhood say that the only visitors they have seen enter the mansion were several detachments of "colored ladies." It is the general impression that Ames would now give his right arm if he had never said ''mansion." None of the citi zens of Jackson ever approach him, and he is never spoken of but with contempt. - It was generally conjectured that Ames, who is un married, wanted the mansion for the use of some brother officers who have their families in Jackson with them. But to their credit, and that of their wives, be it said, they have positively declined to aocept General Ames' extraordinary kindness, and publicly an nounce that there is nothing that could induce them to enter the house. The Governor has rented a very comfortable place in the suburbs of the city of Jackson, to which he moved his family last week. We have given the above ad it comes to U3 from the people of the neighborhood, who got it from those who were eye-witnesses of the proceeding from first to last. Benjamin G. Humphreys and Charles E. Hooker, like other people of Mississippi, may have no rights that a military man is bound to respect. But the time has been when tiie ma jority of the State represented in their per sons would have been thought entitled to con sideration. Mason and Slidell were taken forcibly from the quarter-deck of a British vessel. But the glory of the achievement was of short dura tion; for the "Great Kepublio" was soon hum bled to the expedient of making an apology and restoring them to the protection of the British flag. Why take so much pains to teach the people to regret their alienage from the British flag ? Who is to repair the wrong inflicted on the rights, the honor, and the property of the State of Mississippi by seizing the mansion built by the people for the resi dence of their Governor, aud converting it into a billiard-saloon 1 No wonder the peni tentiaries of the Union are crowded with con victs, when the Government itself is controlled by thieves, and the army and its officers have been and are yet trained to deeds of robbery. A French Turf Celebrity. ViecouDt Artus Talon, one of the most famous mr n on the Freucn turf, died ar. L?ous a fort night ago. The Paris correspondent of tue London Dai y Jfewa eaj: ''Viscount Artus Talon was the younger brother of tnu Marquis Onier Talon, the representative of a family founded by an extremely emiuent judge of tlie last century. The young vUcount, win took to steeple chabiug at a very early age, enliste I as a nvuie of cavalry when the Crimean war broke out. He soon obtained a sub-iieutcuunt's commission in the Eighth Hussars. At BaU klava, riding us ho generally did his own horse, lie won a cup which, was disputed by several KuiMish oilieers At Baden-Uiden, in 18U5, on his horse it'galia, he won the interna tional Steeple chase. He was wont to say that vn the turf he had beateu the Eeglish aud the Germans. Thoe were his greatest triumphs, for although in Erauce he had a lurge stud at Malsous Lutitte, and rode as many as three huu dred steeple cliOses, ho seldom wou any race ot importance, bix feet high, with long thin legs, he was iingularly until for a jockey.

Primary Art.Kriucatloa la Krc, Praia la, 8 wnxrll. Bad Italy. The London Art Journal has an article on Primary Art-Education in Europe, from which we extract the following: FRANCS. In the 74 French hcem, and 247 commercial colleges, in which 66,000 French boys, out of a population of 37,000,000, are receiving a carefully-studied education at the hands of trained and certified masters, drawing, as well as singing, is obligatory; aud during the greater part of the nine years' course which intervenes between the receptiou of the little scholar of seven or eight yenrs old from the primary school, and his introduction, on leav ing the class of "Philosophy," to the special professional Schools of the polyteehnio, St. Cyr, the A cole Navalc, the Ecole Forrcstiere, or the Ecole Ccntrale des Aria ct Manufactures, about two hours a week is devoted to each Study. Drawing is methodically taught not as an accomplishment, but as a necessary fea ture of ordinary education. r-RUSSIA. In the 255 higher or secondary schools of Prussia, out ot a population of 18,500,000, GG,000 boys are receiving their education at the hands of 3349 teachers, themselves care fully trained for their duties. Prussia also possesses 84 v orschulen, or public preparatory schools, containing 8000 scholars, under 188 certificated teachers. All the boys in the secondary sohools learn drawing. In the classical schools three hours a week are given to this study for the first three years. Iu the non-classicpl school two hours a week are given to drawing in all clasfaes below the first, and three in the first. It is remarkable that while the number of scholars in the secondary schools of Prussia is almost exactly the earns as that of the corres ponding pupils in France (although the popu lation of the former kingdom, at the time when the information was collected, was only about half of the latter), the proportion of the non-classical scholars is almost identical, being, in round numbers, in each ease, 20,000 out of 00,000. The lower number, in each instance, must be taken to represent the desire for special information or technical teaching, rather than for general and high culture, as the main object of education. In Germany the idea of oulture, and the study of literature and "the humanities," is that which com mands by far the highest as well as the most eurmral i-HHFHOt. Id France the state of opin ion is more evenly divided. SWITZERLAND. In Switzerland the general judgment leans rather to the practical than to the intellectual side. In the canton of Zurich nearly a third of the whole public expenditure is directed to education, and one in five of the population are at school. Instruction is compulsory on all children between the ages of six and six teen, the first six years of which time are passed in the communal schools. After the close of the twelfth year, the education is car ried on either in the "Erganzungsschule," finishing-school, giving four hours of instruc tion twice a week; or in the "Singschule," to keep up the practice of church music and singing by one hour's exercise in the week, which is coupled with the religious instruction of the pastor of the place, occupying an hour and a half. For those children whose educa tion is prolonged beyond the shortest obliga tory limit, exist the "ludustrieachule," with a course of live years and a half, and the "Gymnasium," with one of six years aud a half. These are cantonal schools. In the "Gymnasium," a classical school, modelled much alter the German pattern, free-hand drawing is taught during the first five years, or lower portion of the course. In the "lndus triescbule," the time occupied by Greek in the "Gymnasium" is devoted to geometrical drawing. ITALY. Education in Italy is for the most part like Bo many other Italian blessings in the future. Yet the office of the Minister of Publio Instruc tion exists, and is not a sinecure. The Italian licti have 3302 scholars, the Ginnasi, 12,802; the iscuolc tcchniche, 8208. All the scholars in the Scuole teclmiche learn drawing. COMPARISONS AND CONCLUSIONS. Now without for a moment imagining that a course of drawing lessons at school will turn out a population of artists, it is evident that the artistio taste and facility common among a population of which the whole, or even only the better instructed part, are accustomed to regard the pencil as an instrument almost as necessary as the pen, will be greatly in ad vance of those prevalent among a people who regard a draughtsman as a man of rare and unusual accomplishment. The great ques tion of culture or information of teauning or training, has excited no less attention on the Continent than it has done among the comparatively few persons who give atten tion in this country to the great educational Struggle. Only abroad it is matter of experi ment, while with us it is matter of argument. In Fiance about a third of the secondary pupilaare now non-olassical. In Prussia almost exactly thd same proportion. In Italy, again, close npou the same, viz: 82G8 out of 24,31)2. In Zurich the proportion is the other way about 250 scholars in the indus trial to lfcO in the classical schools. But in regarding the iucreasiug advantages with wnich Swiss and German youth are now, even in our own country, coming into competition with English lads, we must not be too ready to ascribe the superiority of the foreigner to the industrial or more classical character of his education. Into that part of the subject it is not the place here to enter, although it is one on which it is important to have those clear ideas which a study of the working of the Continental secondary schools may enable thoughtful men to form. But in the care which puts the pencil, as a matter of course, into the hands of the school-boy we can trace a surer cause for the ready ability of the Ger man, as compared with the English lad, when he passes from school to the duties of daily life, than in any lycce and gymnasiums of iho Continent.
