en- towns the vote for Governor is: Morrill,,
fusionist, 81 sos; Reed, wing, 1854; Par

All the Senators elected are either Fuss
ionists or Wings.
For Representatives, the election Of SO

gone by the board, and we shall be glad tc
learn that Morrill, is not elected by the peo-
pie for Governor.
1t ascribes the result in part to the Know

News Of tie failure Of the Protection In
suranoe Company, of Hartford Connecticut,
reached here by telegraph, on Friday the
18th. There being an Agency of this COM
pany in this place, some interest was felt on
the subject. The Agents here went i'm
mediately to work to adjusting losses, and
returning premiums on unexpired fire poll
cies.
We are informed by the Agents that there
was a sufiiciency of funds in their hands,
belonging to the Company, to meet all LA
bilities. The unadjusted losses at the time
of the failure was from $4,000 to So 900,
which have been paid. No patrons of the
Agency at this point will lose.
All risks covered by open policies of the
Protection, that had not reached their desti.
nation, of which notice was had, were with.
drawn by the assured, or transferred to res
ponsible Offices, by the Agents.
The Agency here has paid out, for losses
an amount about equal to that received fo
premiums.

Benton Democracy.

The St. Louis Democrat talks as follows
in late issue:
1--WE regret TO observe that some of the
journals in the interior of the State that la
bored earnestly for Benton and the Demo.
cratic cause, have since the election indul-
ged in tone Of compromise but little short
of an overture to our notification enemies
to unite with them in the election of Uni
ted States Senator for Missouri. They
seem TO think that because Benton's chance
of success is beyond the bounds of proba-
bility it is useless TO adhere longer TO him as
a leader and exponent Of our principles; es-
pecially as the exclusion Of his claims might
open the door to a reconciliation and union
Of the long divided party.
What fall is this from the lofty princi-
pies by which we professed to have been
guided! What an illustration of the fact
that the principles of men too often change
with their fortunes! Had We been success
full, no such proposition would have beer
heard from our ranks. We would have
spurned the nullihers and deficd the wings
We would ioyIully have rallied around Col
Benton and maintained the principles o.
which he is the most distinguished repre-
sentative; in a word, we would have hon.
estly adhered to the sentiments which, il
view of success, we honestly expressed
But alas that a shower bath of disappoint
ment should take the starch out of such {
number of stiff partsans! True democrats
should be made Of sterner stuff"
