MISSOURI LEGISLATURE.

The ST. Louis Republican gives the following
as the result of the Legislative election in Mis-
souri,:
SAL the counties, with one or two exceptions,
are definitely heard from, and the result may be
stated with accuracy to the number of Wings
i'll each branch The Senate contains nine Wings,
and the House of Representatives forty-four. The
entire number of members is one hundred and
thirty three, of which sixty seven is majority.
The Wings count fifty-three on joint ballot, fall
ing short of majority by fourteen votes. 1t is
understood, and admitted, that four of the Sena-
tors who hold over, and belong to the Locofoco
party are opposed to the reelection of Col. Ben
ton to the Senate. In the House four others are
named with equal distnctness, alike opposed
to his election. There are others who are placed
in the same category but with what justice we
are not prepared to say-enough to give majo-
rity against Col. Benton. When the election
comes on, they may or may not verify the expec-
tations of those who pretend to speak advisedy
on this point

Robert P. Dunlap, Loco, is chosen TO Congress
from the Cumberland and Luther Severance,
Wing, from the Kennebec District: no choice in
the York, where the Locos had split, nor in the
Lincoln, where the abolitonists defeat the return
of Freeman HI. Morse. 1t is doubtful whether
any other member has been chosen.
The Wings have chosen three Senators from
Kennebec, and two from Somerset; the Locos,
four in Cumberland, two in York, and two in
Oxford. No choice in Lincoln or Waldo.
To the House of Representatives, very few
members have been electe d-probably not quo
rum. The Boston Mail says that it is not i'm
probable that a majority of Wings, so far, are
elected.
The Locofoco Governor is elected by from 2
to 5000 majority according to the showing of
the Locofocos themselves

LOCOFOCO DUPLICITY.

We have heard of the circumstance alluded to
in the following paragraph from the National In
telligencer Of yesterday, and expected before this
to have laid the two prospectuses side by side
before our readers, that they might see for them
selves:
In the prospectus issued from the Globe office
for a new paper for the canvass of l644-the
Dollar Globe''-and repeatedly published in that
paper, we find the following alluson, in the usual
jargon Of "tbe party" to the tariff:
"Is the dishonest, fraudulent, and erorbitant
tariff of MIR. Clay's Congress, levying taxes upon
the people for the necessaries of life 100 per cent
beyond the revenue duty, for the benefit of the
overgrown capitalists, likely to promote his fur
Their political advancement!"
The introduction of this topic by the Globe, in
such opprobious terms, and coupled with as many
untruths as could well be crammed into so few
lines is of itself sufficient indication of the feel
ing Of the party on this subject if any evidence
| were wanting on that point.
| Such language as this, applied to the tariff,
however, was not at all likely to be as palatabe
| to portions of "the Democracy in Pennsylvania,
| and in New York, as it is in the South and the
West; for, although Senator Wright, of New
York, did vote in favor of Mr.. Aliens proposition
to break down the tarff-showing that he is as
HoStit " IL DIS even MT. FOLK Dlm6ell--Mr. Bu-
chanan and Mr.. Sturgeon, the Senators from
Pennsylvania, whatever might have been the in
clnatons of either of them, did not dare to vote
in the same way. For the Pennsylvania market,
therefore, deception was necessary to promote the
circulation of the Globe and we have now be-
fore us, transmitted to the State of Pennsylvania
under the frank of member of Congress-, a
printed copy of its prospectus, in which the whole
OF the passage above is omitted and the tariff ques-
ton is not SO much as alluded to! Who has been
guilty of issuing this counterfeit is of no conse-
quence, nor whether it was perpetrated at the
Globe printing office, or at some other, Gas APP
pears to us most probable.) The fact is all that
is material to establish the existence of system
atized fraud in the course of preparation upon
the people of Pennsylvania, extending, as we
also hear, into the State of New York. To de-
feat such plot, and cover its authors with con-
fusion and disgrace, it is of course sufficient to
expose it,

THE PROSPECT IN PENNSYLVANIA.

IHE PROSPECT In PENNSYLVANIA.
We copy the following from the Philadelphia
Inquirer of yesterday, which concurs fully with
what we have also seen and heard from Penn
sylvania. The best feeling prevails in every
section of the State:
Our political intelligence from the Western
part OF the State is of the most gratifying charac-
ter. The enthusiasts it is said, is much higher
than it was in 1910. Wherever General Markle
is best known, the friends of the cause are in the
finest spirits. letter from a distinguished friend
assures us that patriot of clearer head or purer
heart does not breathe in the Commonwealth.
The old General was expected to arrive at Pitts
burg on Monday, at the head of the Westmore-
land delegation of 500 Wings on horseback
This single fact is we'll calculated to illustrate
the feeling of the West. Several townships
would it was ascertained, send larger depua-
tons to the great Wing Convention on the 10Th,
than they gave wing votes in 1910, There can
not, therefore, be any mistake in such demonstra-
tons. The Western part of the State will 60
for Markle by an immense vote. Our friends in
that section assure us that if Philadelphia and
the Eastern counties generally will come any
thing near the vote they gave for Harrison, that
all will be wel-that the State will go for Mar
kle first, and then for Clay and Frelinghuysen by
splendid majorities.

GENERAL JACKSON.

Gen Jackson is out with another letter to some
person in Arkansas. The letter gives evidence
that the Old Heros heart is in the right place,
but no one upon reading it would venture to as
sign the whereabouts of his head After saying
many kind things to his friend about old times,
he lets down, or is let down, by his amanuensis,
to the most dwelling party slangwhanging, such
as is the perpetual ornament of the Globe and
other kindred prints.
1t is pity that Gen. Jackson has not some
intelligent, well-bred gentleman about him to
write his letters. He was never distinguished
for literary requirements, though possessing
doubtless, in the vigor of his manhood, lofty in
tellect. In his old age his defective education
and impaired faculties peculiarly expose him to
errors in style and sentiment.
Few of Gen. Jackson's adopted children will
do him less credit than the following, which, we
presume. though appearing with his name to it,
was written by the editor of the Nashville Union,
or some one else, in the presence of the General,
though not by his dictation. The kind sentiments
breathed in the Introductory paragraph, we'll as
the benediction at the conclusion, are doubtless
the Generals own thoughts and feelings but in
relation topolitics charitably hope that he 'took
the responsibility" no further than to give his anna
nuensis carte blanche, supposing that everything
would be put down properly-just as he is said
to have done in relation to his celebrated Proca-
nation What shall write in the Proclama-
ton, General Z" said Mr.. Livingston. 81 No mat
ter what, sir" said the General, $50 you hang
Calhoun"
The political portion of the letter is as follows ::
cit is true, we have been cursed with Wing
gerry in Tennessee for several years led into it
by two of the most arch hypocrites the world was
ever cursed with. But since the Democratic
Convention at Baltimore nominated Polk, for Pre-
sident, and Dallas, for Vice, the Democracy is
united-gatherng strength from the Wings, who
are abandoning Clay daily, and next November
will bury Whiggery in Tennessee, and over the
whole United States; and Federal Whiggery
will be buried, trust, forever.
The exciting question, between the Democrats
and Federal Wings and Abolitonists is the an
nexation of Texas. The Democracy, viewing it
as absolutely necessary to secure Texas to the
United States, to shut out all British and foreign
influence from tampering with the Indians on our
western frontier, and with slaves in the SOUTH
west and west. Clay, with his Federal Wings
and Abolitonists are for shutting the door against
the annexation of Texas fearful of offending Eng
land, and Clay, to get the Abolition votes, not
withstandng Texas is all important to our Ma
tional defence and safety. How humliating, to
every true American, the idea of America, great
and independent nation as we are, to be overawed
by the dictates of England. But Texas must
and aciN be ours. | think Polk and Dallas will
get 20, out of the 26 States"

PROGRESSIVE" DEMOCRACY.

DIsGRAcEFUL OUTRAGE.-On the return of the
northern towns delegations from the Undertook
mass meeting through Valatie, on Saturday even
ing last, one of the wagons containing large
number of ladies' from Chatham, was assaulted by
voley of rotten eggs and stones hurled by band
of Locofocos, who were assembled at Locofoco
tavern in the village in front of which Polk
and Dallas flag was displayed. The eggs took
effect upon the persons and dresses of the ladies,
and one narrowly escaped severe injury from
stone. 1t seems these democrats had lain in
wait for the purpose of peltng the car in which
rode the 26 ladies' representing the States of the
Union, but, happily, the car passed the tavern al
luded to few minutes too soon for them. Rather
than lose their opportunity of exhibiting the spirit
their volley at the ladies' from Chatham.

who is Trustee in tnst for the Church of Latter

Wright, which from words arose to blows. The
result was, that the Bishop got a severe drub-

tect Of the Temple, fell aboard of Wright, after
the latter had done with Miller, and gave him, in
turn, a satisfactory dressing.

Cassus M. Clay spoke on the evening of the
9th to the Wings of Detroit, whose Club House
was crowded to its utmost capacity. During the
day preceding, he spoke to a Mass Meeting of
1000 to 5000 at Birmingham, Oakland county.
He was received with enthusiasm and listened to
with profound attention. The Tariff and Texas
were his themes, and he handled them like a
master. Hon. Jacob M. Howard, of Detroit, also
spoke at Birmingham. Michigan is nobly pre-
pairing for the conflict
