P0EIETAGAEI.
MISSOURI.

We Law before our readers statement of the result Of
the election in Missouri with the accompanying
marks OF the ST. Louis Beacon IL will be recoected that
the Opposition have asserted that MIR Ashley elected
by an immense majority, while the for Governor
extremely close-that they have claimed the result
victory In their favour, aud have asserted that the ST.
Louis Beacon had deserted the standard of Jackson and
espoused the case OF Henry Clay The statement before
shows the absolute lasity of every Of statements
and should serve TO convince every unparalleled mind
that the assertions OF the opposition in political in
which their feelings and interests enlisted not en-
titled to particle of credit. 1t will be seen that Dunkn's
majority foT Governor is 1886 while Mr. Ashey's MAORI
y over MIR Wells Is but 662, and if deduct the
gwen TO MIR Birch, his majority would be but $50. So
much for Mr.. Ashley's immense majority, and the ex
treme close vote for Governor.
We have, moreover, TO bear in mind that all the candi-
dates are avowed Jackson men. Mr. Ashley il was who
introduced the proposition into Congress pass of
censure upon the conduct OF William Stanbery, the great
gun oil the Opposiiom and /, - very well known that he is
and always has been avowed friend TO the recollection
eli Andrew Jackson He voted il is true for the charter
oil the bank; but so did George VI. Dallas and William
wilkins and many others who nevertheless decidedly
and actively engaged i'm supporting Jacksons reelection
Mr. Ball. too the candidate supported by the Opposition
Govensr is also an avowed friend Andrew Jackson
Snd was of the Jackson Electors in 1928 On casting
the eye the returns it WILL from the fact that in
veral Of the counties Bull obtained than Ash
ley be clearly perceived that the former was not dent
ned with the latter with the Opposition; but that he
was supported by many OF the friends OF Jackson wei
as those OF Cay and had he been elected il could by
means have been considered triumph for the Of
tho motley colorcd Opposion gu, he has been defeated
by much larger majority than was obtained ,v Mr. sl-
ley So much for the alleged triumph OF the Opposition.
The editor whom they claimed a dcscrter from our
ranks and recruit in their rcoce the result,
as an evidence OF the strength of General Jackson i'm
state, and the entire devotion of the people his
ton. So much for the change the EDITORS opinion and
the prospects of the Opposition with regard the electoral
vote of the state.
But in addition to all this about yo thirds Of the Lee
gslature are said 10 be friendly the re-eccon of Mr..
Benton TO in The Senate of the United States than

The Bank candidates for Governor and Lieut.. Governor
In Missouri it is ascertaned have been both defeat

As Bank candidates they rallied every CLAY vote 10 their
