Boone County--State Senator.

Under the last apportionment, Boone and
Howard were thrown into Senatorial Dis
trict, and will be represented in the next
Legislature, by Hon. Owen Rawlins, of this
county, he being one ofthe holding over Sem
ators. 1t fas been long time since Mr..
Rawlins was elected, and if public senti-
ment has not greatly changed, his District
has, and we presume no one will pretend
to assert that his views and those of ma
jority Of his constituents harmonize. Boone
county never voted for him at all, and per
haps never will; but when Mr.. Rawlins
was before the people, we recollect distinct
ly well that he dwelt largely and strongly
upon the subject of instructions--contended
that the will of the majority should govern
the repres entative, and that the represen-
tative was bound 10 carry cut that will, or
resign. Charlton was part of this Dis
trict then, and voted for Mr.. Rawlins. She
is thrown into new District, and will assist
to elect new Senator, in August. By the
change, Boone has no voice. in this Senate
rial election, except she give it in the way
of instructions. There are important mat
tiers to come before the next Legislature,
and it is by no means certain that a major
ity Of the voters Of Howard will agree with
Mr.. Rawlins on many points. We will
mention, by way Of illustration the election
of United States Senator.
Mr.. R. can neither represent the Wings
nor the Benton men truly, if lie vote his own
preGerence-und if they do not constitute a
majority Of the voters Of the county, good
calculators are at fault. But add TO the
wings of Howard, the whig voters of Boone
and it is apparent he will not reflect their
views, on the Senatorial election, Internal
improvements, and other questions that will
come up, which need not be recapitulated
We should like 10 hear from our Boone
friends on this subject, and from Mr.. Raw.
Inns himself. What do they think of it, ant
what does lie think? Will he obey instruc.
tinns?
We pause for reply.

Agricultural Meeting.
We await an answer.

On Monday, the 9th of June, there will
be a meeting of the members of the Agri-
cultural Society of this county, at the Court
House, for the purpose Of receiving reports
and TO prepare resolutions, &c., for the reg
nlar meeting upon the second Monday in
ahe sumo month, enjoined by an article in
the Constitution. All persons who feel an
interest, or have become identified in the
benefits of this Association, are exhorted
to attend. Those individuals and officers to
whom power was given to obtain subscr-
bers, it is expected will have full reports
at that time made out. Without this be ac-
complished, thorough satisfaction cannot be
given by the Secretaries to the Board at
their regular meeting. There is now a
spirit of animation displayed upon this sub
ject which if permitted not TO exert prac-
teal influence, will throw the prospects OF
the Society in more gloomy position than
it occupied during the past efforts for its
success. Let every friend Of the cause be
present. JAoa WHIrr, sec'y.

st. Louis Rail Road Tax.
We pause for q reply.

Our citizens are already advised that the
citizens of St. Louis voted to tax their real
estate 81 100000 10. be invested as stock in
the Pacific Rail Road, to insure the com.
pletion ofthat work to Jefferson City. The
majority in favor Of the tax was very deci-
ded, yet there wa, some old fogys who de-
INJURED, and did not like the idea of their
neighbors, who had more enlarged views
and more liberalized notions, forcing then
to help build the road. They were willing
for others to do it, and give them the bene.
fit of the appreciation Of property, and ar
increase of trade, but would not pay cent
themselves. The proposition for the tax
however was carried, and the old fogys
threatened resistance, and an appeal 10 the
Courts. The friends of the measure readil,
agreed, and the case was at once laid before
the Supreme Court, which gave decision
in favor of the validity Of the tax. This de.
cision is very important and opportune, and
will have a good effect upon other sections
of the State. There is more liberal view
spreading on the subject of improvements
and we are thankful to st. Louis for setting
the example of taxing real estate-whch is
always largely benefited, and is most gen,
orally in hands that will not take stock il
any thing-and for settling the legality oil
the procedure, at once.

FOR tne lines.
Mn. EpIToR-When in Brunswick few
days since, I saw Mr.. Moberly, who has
been considerably spoken of as the Wing
candidate for the Senate in this district, and
IN an interview then held with him, he in
formed me that he had fully decided OH not
becoming a candidate, and thata card to that
effect would be published in the next
Brunswicker and Times.
In view of Mr.. MS declining, it be-
comes us to be looking around and selecting
some other good and talented Wing, (and
we have great many such, Mr., Editor, }
to bear the Wing banner in this race. 1t
win never do to let Frederick Rowland, a
mere Jack Straw man, run over the district
without opposition. The next Legislature
will be one of infinite importance to the
people of this State and Wings and Demo-
Gratis feel the necessity of sending such men
10 represent us as will be able to render
us some essential service and benefit to the
country. The democrats have tried to fur
nish candidate, and the effort is failure,
as every one who knows Mr.. Rowland
must admit. Though good man enough,
as a citizen, yet no one who has any pre-
tensions TO judgment, would say he is
fitted for the Office of a legislator. In can
wasting the roll of names, Mr.. Editor, l
know of none who could probably be induced
TO run, and who would be so acceptable to
the people as Judge LucIus SALISBURY, Of
Keytesville. He is young, intelligent and
energetic man,-one who would conduct the
canvass with ability and credit to himself
and party, and if elected would represent
the district well. In view of the limited
time for canvassing the district, it is 10 be
hoped, sir, that Judge Salisbury will at once
announce himself, and commence the can
vass. 4 am sure, sir, no man would BE-
more acceptable to the people, and if he vii
come out he will he sustained in all thu
counties. HARMONY AND ENERGY.
