the State will pay the slightest attention to
this abortive recommendation. The sterling
integrity and loyalty Of Gen. Wilson will
never be questioned-but such Wigs as
Darnes, Mosely and Goode, who desert
their flag in the midst of battle, and fall in
line with the enemy, backed as they may be
by the Republican clique of St. Louis, are
not TO be trusted as councillors in matters
of this kind. Nor is st. Louis the proper
place for Wing Convention. Packing ma.

city. If we must have Convention, let il
not only spring directly from the people,
but let Boonville rather, than st. Louis, be

American Party in Missouri.

The State Council of the American Party
in Missouri, recently assembled in st.
Louis, adopted the following resolutions.
and issued an Address TO the people Of the
State, We viii give portions of the adj
dress hereafter, having only room at pres
ent for the following
"Yom committee, TO whom was referred
the Platform adopted by the National Con-
vention, assembled at Philadelphia, in June,
1855, beg leave to report: That, in their
opinion, said platform enunciates the true
policy in reference 10 every question of any
national importance before the American
people, and, therefore, recommend, that the
State Council of Missouri do cordially rati-
fy the same; and in order 10 correct the
malicious Misrepresentation SO induslri-
ously circulated by our political adverSaries
throughout the State, Your committee recon-
mend that you unequivocally and authorita-
lively publish 10 the world that portion Of
orr political creed which discountcnances
all Interference with the rights of conscience
and religious worship guaranteed to every
American by the Constitution Of our coun-
try, and which disayows the application Of
any religious test for political prerermcnt.
To this end, ana The more cfiectually to
deprive our adversaries Of the weapons
which falsehood provides, your committee
recommend the adoption and publication OF
the following resolution, as expressive Of
the views of this State Council:
Resolved, That it ever has been, and still
remains a fundamental principle of the
American Party that the Constitution of the
United States is the supreme authority, in
all political matters, on American soil; that
religion and politics, in all countries, and
under all circumstances, should be kept
separate and distinct; that we most unequiv-
ocally condemn all and every species of in
reference by any religious denomination,
sect or church, in the civil relation, either

but owing to the heavy rains in August, a

we announce the advent Of any new member
of the steamboat family, for it is an evidence
Of our commercial prosperity and the grow

sidered one OF great hardship and danger
requiring many days Of tedious and hazard
Gus boating on crafts scarcely deserving the
name of steamboats,, but now matters and
things have changed, and instead Of it beng
a long and tedious trip and one of danger
and peril, it has become one Of pleasure

fairly opens in the spring. that river will be
filled with at least twenty Of the finest
swirtest, and best boats that belong to any
