We are requested to state that the assertion Of a
Boston correspondent of the New York Herald OF
November 4th, that the United States commission
ers in this district threatened with prosecu-
ton for acting without Jurisdiction II they issued
a warrant against fugitive slave, is untrue. No
such threat was made, and if made, it would have
been entirely disregarded The issuing oil such
warrant is duty neither to be sought nor summed
and in that light il would doubtless be regarded
by the commissioning.

POLITICAL PARTlESIN MISSOURI.
Ii is now obvious TO every observer
that there are three distinct parties in
this State, and in many Of the States of
the Union. They are the democratic,
the whig, and the disunion. This lat
ter party is mainly furnished, or made
up out of the democracy, and in some
States is a majority Of that party; but
every where has the audacity TO call it.
self the democratic party. In this
State i, is a miserable minority, not
sufficient TO make any show of itself,
and not even avowing its character,
bu, perfectly known by its adherence
to the resolutions Of the General As.
sembly, and by the aid and comfort
which il gives to the disunion party in
The South? Yes, i, is most miserable
minority in this State, and has NO
chance of electing a single representa-
tive TO the next General Assembly, or &c
the next Congress, but by fastening it.
self on the democratic or on the wing
ticket. On the latter it has no chance.
Some few wings may assist the disun
ionis,s, whenever by so doing they car
defeat the democrat party, but they
will not do il at the peril of The Union
The wings in body refuse the ap
proaches of the dlsunionists abroad
and of their aiders and abetters in Mis-
souri,. The only hope is TO fasten them
selves on to the democracy. That is q
disgrace, we cannot, and the democrat
ic party cannot endure. No conner
ion, no mixing with them. There arr
three parties IN Missouri, and let eacl
have it's own candidates for the Gener
al Assembly, and for Congress. W.
feel sure the democracy can carry th'
disunionists on its back, and still carr,
the election against the wings. But i
not, and wings are elected, if they viii
stand by the Union, phich is no,o tn
