Mes,rs. GRENN q SnlRLEy:-The VI. Abel
Leonard, the sterling and talented Taylor cleo
tor is canvassing this district and giving our
democratic friends just such aid and comfort as
old lack gave to the Mexicans at Buena Vista
He has just returned from a tour 10 the northern
coutes OF his district, and was 10 speak on yes
terday at Fulton. On Saturday the 2Sth in.
slant, he will address the people OF Howard at
this place, at which time it is expected there will
be large attendance Of Wings, and it is hoped,
Democrats also. II the Democrats would only
turn out and listen 10 his able and convincing
arguments in favor Of the claims and quali6ca
lions Of Gen. Taylor for the Presidency, there
would be thousands, who would renounce the
intention of voting for circumstance Cass.
The friends Of Taylor may rest assured, that
the ''cause Of the people" does not suffer in the
hands Of Leonard. Let others go 10 work, as
he has done, and the day is not far distant, when
Missouri may be redeemed from loco foco cor
ruption. For twenty eight years she has been
under democratic control, and what have they
made Of her? They have crippled her enter.
prise. squandered her revenue, and involved her
in debt Of near million OF dollars Is it not
time that the people were opening tn cir eyes?
Our democratic friends are all astir about their
grand rally, which is to come off on the 10Th
instant. Without d decree Of the Caucus, your
old co. temporary OF the Democrat assumed the
responsibility Of calling the meeting, and when
it was perceived tina, the papers throughout the
state had given it circulation, the "noise and con-.
fusion" which it created among the members OF
the Caucus, was perhaps not less than that which
prevented Gen. Cass from being heard at Cleve>
land. They could not carry it to Boonvile,
they could not remove it 10 Glasgow, and they
had TO go to work and prepare for the rally
They have Col. Benton posted as speaker on
the occasion, whilst he is probably yet in Wash
ington; not having finished writing out his speech
against the nomination Of Gen. Kearney. Some
OF his party here are beginning to denounce him
as Barnburner.
Bishop Andrews OF the Methods! Church de.
livered sermon in the College Chapel on Suns
day evening last. The Bishop being man OF
some notoriety-havng been the cause OF the
separation Of the Church North and South, drew
quite crowded house. He is a pleasant speaks
