    nu, Atinnomota Constitutional
Convention.
We Itave 4lready announced that the
delegated elected to a Convention for'
the tertnatiou of 4 State Constitution, i
Assembled sit St. Ptinl on the 13th tilt.,
"mid that two Conventions have been
sitting , shine—one Democratic and the
other 11..bpublican. The Dentrieratic
Convention comprise-4 55 members, and
one more is to be added, who has not
yet arrived. The Republican Conver t _
von comprises about as many. The
two together comprise about a dozen' '
more members than were elected. The
excess is caused ny the almission of (W
-iliest° members from sortie of the ilk
tricts, particularly four from St. And,-
Ity many, one from Iliniston county,
And one frO(11--MOWOr county ; each
party claiming the election of its own
candidates. In these cases the Itepnb
beans admit that the ILmtocratie can
if
idates had the fervid number of votes,
but claim, nevertheless, that they were
not elected, bemuse the ballots did not
specify whether the candidates voted
fur, were Council members or Republi
can members. The answer is, that the
Council District and the Repnblican
_District in each of the disputed cases
were ono and the same ; and, there
fore, that the distinction was entirely
unnecessary. The Denio^rats further
say that if any of their candidates were
not elected for the reason mentioned,
although having the !argent number of
votes, then for the smite reason twenty
eight members of the 'Republican Con
vention wore not clected,—their eases
being exactly similar. The six Demo
cystic members from Pembina county
Are also. rejected by the Republicans,
on the ground that a part of that coun
ty is outside of the limit:it of the terri
tory prescribed for the now State. The
following extracts front the St. Paul
Pioneer awl hentorrat, will show more
exactly the origin of the difficulty :
/nue the St. Paul noseor, 3017 13th.
Thiags to be Ilestemberrd.—Let it be • re
membered. that the President of the Republi
can meeting, now in sepixiou at the Capitol.
was elected by the people of Winona and
Wabasbaw counties, in precisely the same
DOOMS as Judge Meeker. Mr. Chase, or their
_ assoeiates.fwbosii. he counselled, should be ex
eluded from seam in the Convention. well
knowing that their votes would have defeated
him. 1
Anotheettet should he remembered ; twen
eight Black Republicans claim seats in the
Convention, and are now acting in the bogus
assembly. -ho were elected precisely in the
Fame manner as live Minor-rats. who were
refused certificates in order this the blacks
might be able to organize the Convention.
Talk of bleeding Kansas, ye Black Itepubli
cans, after this record. Stringfellow was a
very saint when compared to your Ames, Bal
combs, Fosters. and the smaller fry.
7'l6e /Arabian Delegaiev.—ln addition to
edinitting five Delegates to their so-called
Convention who were elected by the people
to stay at home, a part of the dishonorable
tactics of the Black Republicans was to use the
totes of these creatures to exclude the Pembi
na Delegates from- the Convention: A kw ,
facts in regard to the delegates will place tiro'
• matter in its right light before the people.
Pembina sounty firms a single Council dis
trict. lying on both sides of the Red River, a
very large portion of the county being on the
ears side of the proposed State, The popu
lation, we are informed, is about equally di
vided: but that portion of the county on the
west side of Red River is retried exclusively
by half breed hunters, while on the east side.'
especially near the head waters of Red River, I
land about Otter Tail Lake , there are many
white lantern, who have recently gone thither.
and are entitled to Delegates to represent their;
intereem in the Convention.
- There are five erection precincts in the 1
county, three east of Red River, (St. Vincent, I
Leech Lake and Red Lake.) and two west of
the river. (Pembina and Joseph.)
As well might the Delegates from the Tenth
Council District be excluded from a Conven
tion as the Femffina Delegates. Brown corm
tY, in that District, extends west to the Big
Sioux, and a larger portion ' District lies
without the proposed State .han within it.
Election precincts have been established in
this District, outside the limits of the State.
Yet we hear no complaints in regard to this
District. Cause—it is represented in part by
Black Republicans, some of whom were elect
ed by voters imported from Rice into,Waseca
county.
Irmo the Sasso, J. 17 IBM
More Light.—ln addition to four bogus dcl.
evilest front St. Anthony. and one from Lions.
ton county. we understand that upon an ex
amination of the morns. it Iwo been discover
ed that other Registers besides Messrs. Atnes
and UcCan have been playing the nistal in
order to bolster op Black Republicanism.
In Mower county, Mr. Armstrong, the
Democratic candidate. had a -majitrity of over
100 votes over his Repultlican opponent, yet
Ole latter received the certificate. and is now
Acting in the Bepublican meeting.
This case makes seven persons claiming to
be delegates, now acting with the Republi
earls. Who have no right to seats in the Consti
tutional Convention. The fact stands out bold
ly—that the Black Ileptibllcans have not a
quorum of legally chxteil delegates!
The Piont:er gives the mines of fifty.
five delepites now acting with the
Democratic party in the Convention,
and adds:
Without the aid of dishonest county officers,
the Democrats have* majority of legally elect
ed Delegates to the Convention. Every With
"ideal in the above list, was fairly. honemly
and legally elected. One other name remains
to be added. that of Mr. Armstrong. of Mow
er county, This addition will make the Con
vention. if the Black RA:pahlioans do not re
cede from their revolutionary positions, stand

The whole number of members to be
ejected was 108.
liiir The durability of oak may be
known from the fact that the throne of
Edward the Confessor is 800 years old
—one of the oaken coronation chairs has
been in its present situation in West
minster Abbey about 54U years' and the
tilde wooden bridge of which we have
any - acconnt, is of oak—it is that famous
for ha defence by Iforatius Cteles and
which existed 400 years before Christ.
Q.e to Teo Thousand.-i - --Frederick the
Great wrote to one of his Generals :-
‘‘ / send you , with sixty thousand men
against the enemy." On numbering
the troops, it was tbund there were but
fifty thousand. The officer expressed
his surprise at such a mistake on the
part at& sovereign. Frederick's re
ply was, " I counted you for ten thous
and piton."
Cesrage.—.lt often requires more mi

unalloyed pleasure. It Is as much it..'ler the

ease as to hid defiance to tnedical skill.—
Even. however. in the last stages, Inhalation
affords extraordinary relief to the suffering,
attending this fearful scourge. which annually
destroys ninety-five thousand persons in the
United States alone: and a correct calculation
shows that of the present population of the
earth, eighty millions are destined to fill the
Conanmptive's grave.
Truly the quiver of death has stn arrow so

been the great enemy of/life, for it spares
I neither age nor sex, but sweeps 'or alike the
brave, the beautiful, the graceful and the

fmm whom cometh every good and perfect
(gilt.i I am enabled to offer to the afflicted a
; permanent and speedy cure in ennsumption.
I The first cause of tubercles is from impure
blond, and the immediate effect produced by
their deposition in the lungs is to prevent the
free admission of air into the air cells, which
1 canoes a weakened vitality through the entire
j 'poem. Then surely it is more rational to ex- .
pest greater good from medicines entering the
earitiest of the lungs than from those admin.
1 littered through the stomach : the patient will
always find the lungs free and the breathing
easy. after Inhaling remedies. Thus, Inhala
tion is lk local remedy. nevertheless it acts
constitutionally, and with more power and
certainty than remedies administered by the
stomach. To prove the powerful and curet
influence of this mode of administrat on,
chloroform inhaled will entirely destroy sensi.
bility in a few minutes, paralyzing the entire
!nervous sy-tem, so that a limb may he' am
' plotted without the slightest pain inhaling
i thg ordinary burning gas will destroy life in a
few hours.
The inhalation of ammonia will rouse the
system when fainting or apparently dead.—
The odor of many of the medicines is percepti
ble in the skin a few minutes after. being in
haled. and way he immediately detected in
the blond. A convincing proof of the consti
tutional effects of inhalation. is the fact that
'sickness is always produced by breathing foul
air-t-is not this positive evidence that proper
; remedies, carefully prepared and judiciously
administered through the lungs should pro
duce the happiest results ? During eighteen
years' practice. many thousands suffering .
front diseases of the -lungs and throat, have
been under my care, and I have effected litany
remarkable !urea, even after the sufferers had
been pronounced in the last stages. which
fully satisfies me. that consumption is no
longer a fatal disease. My treatment of con.
suniption is original, and founded on long ex
perience and • thorough investigation. My
perfect acquaintance with the nature of tuber
elem. lc., enables me to distinguish readily,
the various forms of disease that simulate con
sumption. and apply the proper remedies, rare
ly being mistaken even in a single came. Thi s
familiarity, in connection with certain patho
logical and microscopic discoveries, enables
me fia relieve the lungs from the effects of con
tracted chests, to enlarge the chest. purify the
blood. impart to it renewed vitality, giving
energy and tone to the entire system.

Flour! Flour!
To neat Who Want Farina
A FARM AITHIN THE REACH OF
EVERY MAN.
TIIE RIDGWAY FARM COMT ANY has
made arrangements by which all who de
sire to settle or purchase a home can do so.
The Farms consist of the best limestone
soil of the most superior quality for fanning,
in a rapidly improving place, into which an
eatecsive emigration is now pouring. The
property is located in Elk county, Pennsyl
vania, in the midst of a thriving population
of some 10,000. The climate is perfectly
healthy, and the terrible plague of the western
fever is unknown. It also has an abundance
of the best quality of Coal and Iron. The
price to buy it out is from $3 to $2O per acre,
payable by instalments, to be located at the
time of purchasing, or a share of 25 acres en
titling to locate the same for $3OO, payable
$6 per month, or 12 acres payable $4 per
month. Discount—for every sum of $lOO and
under, paid in advance, a discount of 5 pe
cent. rrIL be allowed, and fur over $lOO a dis
count of 10 per cent.
In considering the advantages of emi grating
to this locality the following are presented:
Firsf—The soil is a rich limestone, eapable
of raising the heaviest crepe, owing to which
this settlement has attained its present great
prosperity.
Second—lt is the centre of the great North
West Cued Basin, and is destined soon to be
some one of the greatest business places in the
State. It will supply the great Lake market,
(according to population and travel the great
est in the Union.) It has five workable veins
of the best Bituminous Coal, amounting in
the aggregate to over '22 feet, which makes
22,000 tons of coal under each acre. This
will make the land of inestimable value.
The eminent state geologist. Dr. Chas T.
Jackson, of Boston, has made a geological
survey of the land, and analysed the coal, the
iron ore and the limestone. This report to
gether with maps will be furnished to in
quirers.
Fourth—Three railroads are laid out thro'
this property. The Sunbury and Erie Rail
road give us a market for our coal to the
lakes—it runs from Erie to Philadelphia. A
large part of this road has been finished, and
is now in running order. A heavy force is
now working from Erie towards our land in
the western direction, the means for the cora
pletion of which have been raised—itwill soon
be finished. The Allegheny Valley Railroad
connects us with New York. Boston and Pitts
burg. The Venango Road connects us with
the West.
There are already good Turnpike Roads
running through this property, various other
roads have been opened to accommodate the
emigration and settlement which has already
taken place.
There is no opportunity equal to it now of
fered to the man who wants to provide himself
a home in an easy way. and make- a settlement
where ho can live in prosperity and indepen
dence in a climate PERFECTLY HEALTHY.
No case of the fever ever having been
known to occur in this settlement. It is not
like going to the backwoods of the West,
among perhaps intolerant people,where there
is no society, churches, or schools, where the
price of land is high,and where the emigrant,
after being used to the healthiest climate in
the worhr, has to endure sickness and pain,
and perhaps ruins his health and that of his
family. But here is a thriving settlement
havin g three towns , containing churches.
schools, hotels, stores, saw mills, grist mills,
and everything desirsil. There is a cash
market at hand. The lumber trade last year
amounted to over two hundred million feet of
lumber. Inn short time, owing to the coal,
it will become still more valuable, u a num
ber of iron works and manufactories will soon
be started ; they are at present starting them
extensively at Warren. Even fur those who
do not wish to go there, the pavments art'
such that they can easily buy a (arm to save
their rising families from want in the future,
or to gain a competence by the rise which will
take place in the vulua of lafide. By an out
lay scarcely missed, a substantial provision
can be made.

These lands were granted by the Govern , -
ment to aid in the construction of this Road,
and are among the richest and most fertile ire
the world. They extend from North Fleet and
North West. through the middle of the State,
to the extreme South. and include every mit,
ty of climate and productions found between,
those parallels of latitude. The Northern
portion is chiefly prairie. interspersed With,
tine groves, and in the middle and Southern ,
sections timber predominates, alternating with
beautiful prairies and openings. -
The climate is more healthy. mild and equs
le, than any other part of the country—the
air is pure and bracing, while living atriums
and springs of excellent water abound.
Bituminous Coal is extensively mined, awl
supplies a cheap and desirable fuel, being fur.
niched at many points at $2 to $4 per tones
and wood can be had at the same rate per cord.
Building Stone of excellent quality also
abounds, which can be procured fur little more
than the expense of transportation.
The great fertility of these lands, which are
a black rich mould from two to five feetdeep,
and gently rolling,—their contiguity to this
Road. by which every facility is furnished for
travel and transportation. to the
_principal
markets North, South, East and West, and
the economy with which they can be cultira
ted, render them the most valuable investment
that can be found : and present the most fa.
eatable opportunity, for persons of industrious
habits and small means, to acquire a comfort.
able independence in a few years.
Chicago is the greatest grain market in.the
world—and the facility and economy with
which the products of these lands can be
transported to that market, make them much
more profitable. at the prices asked, than
those more remote at Irovernment rates,--u
the additional cost of transportation is a per
petual tax on the latter, which must be borne
by the producer, in the reduced price he re
ceives fur his grain, !to. -
