DUNCAN AND THE CRIsIs.-Those OF us who knew
the gallant and lamented Duncan, when station
ed in this city, can appreciate the following in
cident in the Mexican war. 1t is taken from the
Nick Max:
General Pillowwas sometimes rather premature
in his orders, and had, besides, a pompous or
atorical style of delivering them, which he pre-
served even in battle. On one occasion, during
an engagement, Captain Duncan commanding
the Flying artillery, he called out to this officer in
his usual manner: Captain Ducan-Fire-the
crisis has come" Duncan, without saying word
turned to his men, who were standing by their
guns already slotted and primed, and simply
called out, "Fire!" The men were slightly sur

F. P. BLAIR, JR.-This distinguished gentle
man was unanimously nominated on Monday last,
by the Democratic Convention for the st. Louis
District, as their candidate for Congress. Mr..
Blair is a sound, conservative national Demo-
crat, man of splendid talents, honest and ener-
getic, and will make ST. Louis first rate Repre-
sentative. He is, we have no doubt, the most
popular man in St. Louis, and his past consistent
and conservative course has won for him univer-
sal respect. His election over the combined
hosts Of Know Nothing and other isas may be
set down as certain.-Alton Courier.

A VETo.-We regret to announce that the
President has deemed it his duty to veto two ap.
preparation bills-one for the improvement of
the St. Clair Flats, the other the removal of OBJ
structions at the Mouth of the Mississippi
came to him free from the faint of party being
endorsed by an Opposition House and a Demo-
cratic Senate. We regret this the more be-
cause, to all appearances, it seals the fate of the
bills now pending having in view the improve
ment of the Rapids. Our only hope is that Con-
gress will come to the rescue, with vote sufti.
Gent to determine that such bills are not uncon-
stitutional, nor the result of hasty legislation
The endorsement of these appropriations by the
Senate makes the action of the President per-
sonal and not party movement, and, not having
yet seen his Message We are really at loss to
imagine the reasons that have actuated him. The
interests ofthe West demand, cmphatically, that
every Western man should maintain, and on all
proper ccasions assert, our right to appropri-
atoms from the public treasury for the improve
ment of our navigable Rivers. We IRE glad to
know that but one sentiment prevails upon this
subject in the West, and that, with only one or
two prominent exceptions, the opinion enter
tanned by our public men is identical with that of
the masses.-Oquawka Spectator.
