Sibley (Loco) was elected on the 1st of August a Delegate to Congress (without opposition) along with the first TerFitorial Legislature, but, as party lines were not drawn at this election, o estimate as to the political affinities of the Territorial legislators can be made.

On the 11th of June a census was taken of the Territory, when it was found there was a white population of 4,680, exclusive of soldiers at the military posts, and the immigration since that time has been at least equal to this estimate. The Indins have a population of 25,000. The Legislature have memorialized Congress for the purchase of the Sioux lands west of the Mississippi.
