The Battle in Missouri.

The programme is laid out for rich
triangular fight in Missouri this campaign
The Americans, Bentonites and anti Benton
ties, are all in the field with their candidates,
each full of enthusiasm and disposed to make
hard fight. The two divisions Of the DEM
ocratic party hate each other more heartily
than ever the two old parties did. Each would
no doubt be better pleased TO see the Ameri-
themselves Democrats. The st. Louis News
says the two factions differ on the following
points:
Kansas Nebraskaism, which the Antics
heartily endorse" and in which the Benton
ties "acquiesoe
Pacific Railroad, which, the Bentonites urge,
should be built through the heart of the
country" but about which the Antics arc
perfectly silent.
Public Lands, which the Bentontes declare
should be coded to the States in which they
lie, and which the Antics ignore.
Internal Improvements-the Bentontes
going earnestly for, and the Antics saying
nothing about, which means going against
them.
If the Americans conduct the campaign ju-
diciously, while their antagonists worry each
other to death, they will carry off the prize.
The Americans of Missouri, however, are
wide awake and thew will do thar duty

A SINGULAR OMISSION.

50 far rs we have observed the proceedings Of the
various county meetings OF the know-Nothing par.
- in our State not one has endorsed the Philadel
pll;a platform adopted in February last. The Con.
v.n,iou of Know No,hings recently held Staunton
has also failed 70 endorse that platform. Most per.

adopted; but strange to sRy neither of them will risk
hi, popularity now by formal endorsement of it, in

The bill TO grunt the right OF prescription IN Ger
tain lands to the Indiana Yearly Meeting OF the So
ciety Of Friends, was passed.
Mr.. Mason discussed the subject OF the NaFai
Board. He thought that great injustice had bcei
done by their action; and il due to the country
due to the naval service, and due to the equity OF the
age in which we live, that this CREST wrong should he
redressed, and that the findings Of the Board should
be set aside in f0!0 so far Us it WAS competent Tor Con-
gress To do IT,
WAen hu hal concluded, the subject was postponed
until tomorrow.
Mr. benjamin then gave his reasons why the Sc
mite should pnss the bill, aud make appropriation
for removing Obsrucoas to navigation a. the mouth
of the Mississippi river the objection of the President
to the contrary notwithstanding lie did not propose to
deta;n the Senate with long discussion II subject
in regard 10 which every Senator had probably made
up his mind, but he could no. permit vote to be
TAX en- whou, calling some attention to the very
traordnury position assumed by the President in his
veto message. He ndverted to the fact that at a
former session the President vetoed the general river
and harbor Improvement bill, at the same time init
mating that he would approve ana siSn separate Dlils
making appropriations for great many Of the works
This was, therefore, drawn up in compance with the
suggestion OF tho President, and that now he had
changed his entire principles upon the subject ana
had refused give approval any bill OF tins KIND
whatever. Mr.. B. said he believed that the deoe.
rate judgment Of the American people was against
that Of the President.
Mr.. Toombs said that approving a. he did OF the IN
trepd fidelity OF the President 10 the constitution, III
returning these bills he desired 10 defend his course
