"The first mass meeting ofthe democracy, prepar-
atory to the State election which takes place next
month"; was held last evening in the Ball Room of
the ST. Louis Exchange; and it was one, both in
point of character and numbers, of which those who
participated in its proceedings have every reason to
be gratifed. The large room crowded in every
part, and the general attendance Of the more prom-
nent and influential members of the party, as well
as of Others showed that all were alive to the i'm
portance of the coming CONTEST and the necessity Of
all proper exertions to secure the triumph of the
democracy.
