Taking tho Alarm.

The st. Louis Republican, in review
ing the result of the election in that CT
ty, exclaims:
WHAT NExr?-The election for city
officers is over, and the Emancipation
ticket has triumphed. This result has
been brought about by acoalition of the
Black Republicans and that part of the
Know Nothings who, deserving their
own flag, resolved to cast their fortunes
with the Emancipationists and who will
hereafter be found acting with them.
An Emancipation party now appears
before the people, to contend for supre-
macyin this State There will be-there
can be, so long as this question absorbs
all others-no other issue. Its decision
is imposed upon the voters by necessi-
ty which admits of no evasion, and it is
to be tested in the election for Governor
in August next. Had the resolutions OF
the Legislature been suffered to stand
just as they are on the statue book, this
necessity might not have arisen. But a
party has appeared in this city and State
which declares that agitation OF the
question shall necer cease until Missouri
Is a Free State. This is the issue pre-
ssnted to the People of Missouri to be de-
cided in August next, and that issue we,
at least, are prepared to meet. In the
city of St. Louis, the Emancipation party
is triumphant, and now we appeal to the
State for verdict, whether they are IN
favor of Emancipation or not.

'THE FUTURE OF VIRGINIA."-The
Charleston Merc,wyfollowsupits recent
article on the slavery prospects OF the
border States in this wise:
We intend to cast no reflection upon
the Ancient Commonwealth, Virginia.
but merely to indicate that the proper
position of the cotton States In this con-
troversy should be in the forepart of the
battle. We hold that, for the sake of
peace and quiet, unless an end is put to
the harrassing agitation of the slavery
question in our midst, the institution
must give way wherever 1T can be dis
pensed with: thatin all the border States,
including Virginia, the institution is not
indispensable, butamatter ofexpediency
only; that in the cotton States, however,
it is a vital concern; that we have to
fight this battle and decide it, sooner or
later, and should fight it through and
settle it before the institution is shaken
in the border States, and while they
have the interest and inclination to take
telling hand in the game. AS it was
formerly ungenerous and unwise for the
South to turn over her rights and inter-
ests to our Northern friends to uphold
for us, SO, we argue, tits unfair, ungene-
rous and unwise in the cotton States now
to look to the border States to take the
initiative and incur the chief hazards OF
maintaining our rights and interests.

MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR-On the Goth ult.
Miss Virginia Maston, while walking near
her fathers residence in Greenbrier corn-
ty, Va, adjoining the White Sulphur
Springs, discovered the dead body of a
man lying in the woods, the head being
severed from the trunk and not to be
found. Assistance was procured, and up
on investigation $162,5O in gold was
found upon his body, with watch and
four pistol balls. Under the man was an
empty pistol, with the cap bursted. The
flesh had been much torn by wild ami
mails. The following description of the
deceased from the evidence at the inquest,
may aid in his Identification.
We found on him a good suit Of clothes,
consisting Of a black cloth sack coat, sum
mer plaided vest, summer pantaloons,
plaided goods, a new pair of boots, two Or
three handkerchiefs, and low crowned
hat, black ribband around it; also, found
pocket book containing small pieces of
silver, silver watch and chain, tobacco,
knife, biscuit, also scarf. Judging from
his hair, believe it to be that of white
man, black hair mixed with gray-mid-
die size man.
