Editor ADleric0n Organ;
DEAR sIR: Since wrote you Last, have been
on the wing in every direction, and have seen and
heard a great deal which must be of interest to
every true American. have learned-and be-
leye me it is no idle picture Of the imagination
that there exists widespread and deeprooted
conspiracy organized for a two-fold purpose, viz
the destruction of the American party, and the
dissolution of This glorious Union. The old dema-
gogues of the Wing and Democratic parties are
the originators of II. Their instruments (perjured
traitors are sent even here among the emgrants,
their miserable dupes, and disseminated through
out the free States, for the purpose Of abolition
izing the Know-Nothing party; while an equal
number are employed in the South to propagate
pro-slavery sentiment. They are all writer's, and
have concerted to expose, reciprocay, each others
denominations and iniquities. But all the infamy
is to be attributed to the Know-Nothings, North
and South. In this remote region, the imprudent
agents Of the enemy do not hesitate to divulge
their purposes.
In regard to the dissolution Of the Union, It
seems that the series Of essays published last year
in the New York Tribune, were but the preliminary
steps to the grand design Of Predetermined sepa-
ration. The only difficulty was how to provoke the
South to break the first link This they suppose
to be obvated by the anticipated struggle In Kan
sas. Like Falstaf's ragamufiins, they hope their
dupcs sent hithcr may be well ''peppered." They
have their royal Governor "a perfect counterpart OF
Dunmore, famous in the traditions Of Virginia. and
they do not doubt that Mr. Pierce will sustain him
with all the armies and navies at his command.
The Southwestern States will fly to arms, and the
war Of dissolution will begin OF course, the abo-
liton leaders and the old demagogues will keep
themselves out of danger In the excitement to
grow out of such a result if their Vaccinations
can produce 1t, they look confidently for the de-
struction of the Know-Nothing organization-an
organization, above all others ever formed in this
country, as they deem land so do u the best quail
fed to preserve the Union.
The inhabitants of this garden spot of Missouri
are mostly Virginians and they have always adj
mired Mr.. Wise. They call him Henry Ceur de
Lion" but they will not be chagrined at his i'm
pending defeat If like his gallant antelope in
England he had led his brethren (natives) instead
Of strangerforeigners, he might-but enough His
supposed present alliance with Mr.. Pierce, Who if
he really intends to sustain the impurities Of Reed
err, is unquestionably dead cock in the great po-
litical pit, is sufficient to cast deep shade over
his escutcheon. do not speak with reference to
Missouri alone. It is the same in all the South
western States, and in some where negro slavery
does not exist-for the Giddingses, and Greeleys,
and Stewards are stencil in the nostrils Of all true
Americans and patriots everywhere in this great
confederacy,
The farmers here have not had sufficient rain for
two years The SHOWS fell on frozen ground, and
ran off without penetrating it. But evidences OF
unusual industry are seen everywhere; and If the
approaching season should be good one, the
crops will be enormous. have travelled in eight
States, and am certain, If there are sufficient
rains there viii be more grain produced this year
than the sum total of the last three years. Asyet
the Missouri river is too low to send to market the
hemp, tobacco, and grain Of last year.
The cholera has broken out among the laborers
on the railroad, and among the poor deluded emf
grants sent out by the infamous Greeleys Parkcrs,
and Beechers, to serve them as rounds to the lad
ders by which they are to mount to fame and for
tune NATIVE.
