tend, as TO this vice, to be one Of exier-
minaiion. Our associations are voIun,a-
ry. An impressed soldier, driven into
ranks by the operation Of law, or a mer-
cenary i.irelins. tempted by the hope Of
money, power or patronage, are unknown
in our service. Our only term Of enlist
men. is for the war-ths ,chole ,car-and
whilst this war is waging We will engage,
as Temperance Associations, in no other
service. We will espouse no other quar-
rel, aud, when. ended, and this our CON-
mon enemy is driven ou; and destroyed.
we pledge our tires, our fortunes, and our
sacred honor. iha, our army shall disband.
We seek 10 teach by example aud by
preccpt--reasou and argument nrc our
weapons--aud we address ourselves 10 the
understandings and hearts and conscienccs
ofnien. Wcpersuadc men to be sober, and
thus seek to thin The ranks OF our ehcmy.
We beg men 10 desist from The manufac
iurc Of the poison, aud thus seek to dry up
the fountains Of this evil. We spread be-
lore men every in,iuceinent which lie or

We have no secret conclave-no conven-

upon public nolce-our consultations are
beiure the eyes of the world-lriends aud
enemies are invited 10 alteud-no man's

M,ssouri.-Dear Sir: Our three days
election has resulted in glorious triumph
To the cause OF Democracy. The city and
county are redeemd-the stronghold of
federalism, in Missouri is broken up-,he
enemy, with its "Clay Clubs" is oves-
thrown, and tho cause Of the people Is in
tho ascendant. We have elected our
sheriff, (Milburn;) one If not both OF the
Senator's; and at least 4, if not 5, OF the
seven Representatives; and Of Tho local Of
fcers we have our share. At the close Of
the poll ON the third day. many votes re-
mnincd to be taken, owing TO the very le-
dious aud improper mode Of holding the
election; aud had ano:her day been allow
cd, the Democrats would have carried eve
rylhing. In the old Federal county Of st.
Charles, we have had similar success. ]
write this as The mail IS closing, aud have
not time 10 enter into further particulars.
Yours. truly.
ladidna.-The slip from heFortWayue
Sentinel. which We publish. below. induces
US to believe thai the Democrats will have
small majority in tho Legislature, on
joint ballot. 4 letter from indianapolis,
dated the 9th instant, received to-day by a
Senator in Congress, states that The Demo-
cratic majority will be 6or 8; but the wiz
ter docs NOT give any returns to show how
he arrives at that conclusion.
From the Hoyae Sentind-E1tra, !dug; J

SO far as received, are most encouraging.
We have gained, SO far, three Representa-
lives. Ii The whole State has done as well

The late Frcsh.-We learn from, gen
t:sman who has lately passed through so.nc
paris OF the country watcretl by The north
ern tributaries Of the S,auuron. which RI
yer. and the Dan. uniting at Clarksburg,
constitute the Roanoke. that the late fre,h
has been very destructive to tho crops ol
corn, oats, wheat aud Tobacco. The los.
Of the tobacco on the Staunlon has been
very great, and much wheat and oats have
been carried OF. The Meherrin rose unu.
sually high. and swept its low grounds ol
all their tobacco. The Litte Roanoke
rose higher than il ever did before. and
The loss in corn. oats, wheat and tobacco
is almost io,al.
We nre also informed that The losses on
James River. although less Than first re-
ported are still vcrv great. Our Informant
thinks that the lowest estimate Of the
amount Of property destroyed by The fresh
