DISGRACEFUL LAWLESSNESS IN MIN- NESOTA.}j C orrespondence of the St. Pau! (Min.) Pioneer. Betve Pram, Deo. 29—From s party of gentlemen just in from the town of Lexington, Le Sueur county, I learn that Charles Rein- hart, the man committed for the murder of & Mr. Bodell, some two months since, was lynched and executed by a mob, 9n the day before yesterday. The particulars, as related to me 74 ove of the gentlemen, are as follows: On Monday last, s ly after noon, a mob of about sixty men, who reported themselves as belonging to Rice county, and com posed incipally of Irish, Germans and half-breeds rove into the town of Lexington in a body and r. immediately sought out of Le Sueur county, under deputy sheriff whose charge the prisoner had been placed for safe keeping. To him they stated their inten- tion of lynching Reinhart (as they stated to prevent his wy from jastice) and demanded the key to the building in which he was con- fined. In this they met with a prompt and | seers refusal from Mr. K., who imme- iately stationed hiraself in front of the door of the buiiding for its better protection. But the mb had come for a ific purpose, and, hav- ing might on their side, were not to be thwart- ed. Several of them seized ujo1 Mr. K. and, after fierce and protracted s| ie, during which the sheriff is said to have dofended him- self and bis prisoner with great courage, the oe taken from him while he was being THE VERY BEST OF THE FOOTE CAUGHT. The following, on Gov. Foote, is too good to be lost; and, as we are assured by a party pres- sent, that it is literally true, we lay it befure our readers. In fact, the person who gave us the information isa man of in t) honor, in whom we Pore implicit condesce. eer is: A few d ,» & company of gentlemen were traveling ap the Mississippi river, be- tween Vicksburg and Memphis, on the steamer Antelope. In the crowd was a politician of — notoriety, particularly in.the State of ississippi, who was eloquent and incessant in his advocacy of Judge for the Pres- . “Every position of Douglas was Dem- every element of his nature constitu: tionat and conservative, all the leading states- men and politicians of the South and West his a admirers, shee a uring an animated panegyric upon the per- fections of the “ Little Gina,” all the peti of the cabin had congregated around the “ in- terminable talker,’ some asking one question aod some another, all of which were answered by the statement of facts all within the ' eer- tain personal knowledge”’ of the ker, when one gent asked “ How is Kentucky upon the Douglas question?” The speaker turned to him with an airot great dignity and a peculiar —- of countenance, as much as to say: “There Lam at home,” and replied, ‘ Ken- tucky, sir, is right; and, to my certain knowl- edge, every prominent politician in the State is in favor of Douglas. I have very lately been in Kentucky and conversed with every member of Congress, and every one (and par- ticularly Dr. Peyton, the most nrominent cf them all,) is in favor of Douglas.”” A very fine looking, quiet nger, “who had been listening without saying anything, appeared struck with the last ating and asked the speaker if he understood him to sa: that Dr. Peyton was a Douglas man. “0. yes,’’ he replied, ‘I knowhim intimately; and within the last four weeks he has assured me of the fact.’’ The strangor rose up and spoke as follows : “Sir, I am Dr. Peyton, the member of Con- gress referred to, and though | have heard much of you, I have never had the honor of your acquaintance, or of speaking to you, until now, and so far from being a Douglas man, I am against him, sir, all the way from h—ll to Halifax. Nor is there a prominent man in Kentucky for him, except Mr. Dixon, who is in favor of a new party.”’ The effect of this reply can be better imagined than de- scribed. The shout that went up from that crowd made the Antelope tremble. The Dou- | Bers orator, instead of melting down into bis oots, turned towards Dr. Peyton, and re- marked: “Are you Dr. Peyton, sir? Most happy to see you, sir—delighted to make your acquaintance, sir—think f once saw you, when I was in the Senate, hem!” Bea led all hands to take a drink, and amidst the most terrific guffaws, they all drank “ health to Dr. Peyton, and confusion to Douglas and his SEASON— Py the ad by force of numbers. uring the time that this was going on uut- side, the prisoner had learned the cause of the melee, and what would be his probable fate should they succeed in effecting an entrance. Since his late attempt to escape from custody, he had been doubly secured by a pair of close fitting handcuffs around his wrists, and a band around one of his ankles, by which he was fastened to the floor with a strong chain, and a beavy wrought iron sta made of half-inch fron Upon hearing th » mob approach, he stri the manacies over his hands, taking and skin with them, and then in his frenzy, and by an exertion which must have been almost superhuman, he tore the staple in two above where it entered the floor. Thus in a manner freed, he touk one of the legs from off a large stove which stood in his room, and awaited their coming. The building in which he was confined was constructed of large hewn logs, firmly put to- gether. The ceiling was composed of the same material, about a foot through, and placed side by side, clese as they could be laid. Above this, the outside was merely boarded up with ordinary lumber, and the whole covered over with shingle roofing. There was but one door in the building, and that was situated imme- diate'y in one corner, while a small opening through the logs, about two feet long and a foot wide, with heavy bars of iron runping perpendicularly and sunk in logs in the front was the only window. The key once in their possession, the mob fancied prisoner an easy victim to their murderous But it appears that in this | schemes for the Presidency.— Vicksburg Sun. they were disap, ted; for upon opening the door they found Reinhart standing by its side, SENSATION PREACHING. and between it and the window. wielding the piece of iron which he had taken from the stove, and threatening death to any one who dared to come into the room. Thus he stood for the space of an hour and a half, defyi. the entire mob, and not a man of them dar to enter where he was. Finding no way by which they could cripple him from the outside, except by inserting a long sharpened stick slantwise through the bar of a small window by his side, in which manner they succeeded in bruising him considerably, and inflicted a gu over his right eye. They tore of the ards from one gable of the building, and the shingles from a portion of the roof, and with an axe cut through the logs that separated the upper from the lower portion of the jail tending doubtless so to cripple him from above that those below might enter the door and se- cure him. Just as this was accomplished, the prisoner fell down in a swoon, and thus became an easy prey. He was immediately placed upon a sled and driven some three-quarters of a mile from the jail, and then while in a state of in- sensibility, one end of the rope was placed about his neck and thrown over the limb of a tree, and he was swung into the air. Through Some negligence, however, the noose sli ped round under his chin, and he was again let down to the ground. Having by this time re- vived from his swoon, he was asked if he had pocder to say. He again, as he had con- stantly done while defending himself from the mob, asserted his innocence of the crime for which he was about to suffer; ard asked that a prayer might be offered up in his behalf. This was done by an exhorter who chanced to be in the vicinity, (most of the lynchers kneeling during the ceremony,) and then, with the as. sertion of innocence still upon his lips, he was once more drawn into the air, and so allowed to remain until life was extinct, a victim of ill- advised and unwarrantable justice, if guilty, a martyr to popular fury if innocent, und in the eyes of the murdered man under any circumstances. After the execution, a hole was dug in the ground some two feet deep, and his body, un- eoffined and uoshrouded, was thrown into it and covered over withdirt. This accomplished, the mob departed tor town, and returned to their homes. +e Evpannetina a Jory —We dropped into the Court of Sessions the other day to “take a look around us,’ and while there, were wit- nesses of the mode of empanneling a jury.

Chal- ler have of late done more to depre- he influence of Christian ministers, and, indeed, of Christianity itself, than the fashion 80 much in vogue of sensation reaching. It has been set by Mr. Beecher aad others of his oe of talent, men of energy, and de- termined to make a mark, to accomplish an object by some means or other. They do, in- deed, make a mark; but itis one not alt: ether enviable; they do accomplish an object, butat the same time they injure the cause they es- pouse. They decrease the consideration to which their calling is entitled—they belittle great themes by their mode of handling su -h— and they induce others without their ability to imitate their faults (for imitators always copy faults)—they them:elves caricature preaching while they fritter away its influence. What can be said of the remarks of Mr. Beecher, on Sunday last, that “‘ Tie Apostles were taken Srom the lowest dregs of society ;"* that they were men without character, intelligence, hon- esty, education, or worth; that comparing these men with the great majority of people in that age, the comparison sunk the Apostles greatly below their fellows. Some were liars, some drunkards, some betrayers, none seemingly worthy ; they never hesitated to indulge in the most shameful deceptions to lead him (Christ) astray as to their real motives ?’’ This language is taken verdztim from a re- port of the sermon, aud, we sre told, was con- tinued for some timo in a similar strain. Not only is it inaccurate aud incorrect in state- ment,—for the apostles were not liars and drunkards, nor devoid of character and intelli- gence,—but such a tone injures the effect of a s-rmon. It may prove “ taking’’ with a few,— that is, it creates a sensation at the moment of delivery, but with all thinking or sensible hear. ers, it must detract from any consideration they might otherwise allow to the discourse. Now, as the object of preaching should be hardly of the ad captandum sort, tho style that we ob- ject to cannot be considered a propriate. In the same journal from which wemake the above extract, we find a report of the sermon of the Rev. Mr. Bartlett, whose style is de- scribed as ‘thickly strewn with bon mots,’’— Among other things he remarked, in referring to the fashionable style of mourning, that “Ci though he wept, never stuck a weed i * Such absolute irreverence and bad taste, certainly cannot contribute to the conversion of Mr. Bartlett’s listeners; his bon mots are surely out of place in the pulpit, and the pertness of his allusions to the Being whom he calls Master, than awe.
