The opinion is drawn up by Judge

highest democratic authority in the state.

Judge and tie skiliful politician. That

IN this matter, were it not that 80 many

law, and keeps prompt "step to the mu-
SIC OF the plantation. He delivered
dissenting opinion, anl has thereby
leapcd far ahead Of my lord Clifford and
all other prominent Democrats as great
political leader of the allied maraudcrs of
Maine. We can see clearly that new

BLToRfAND AFTER.--A good thing
IS published concerning the New York
E1Press-"Dog Noble's'' paper-and
the Missouri election. On ,he 7th inst.
when it was supposed that Stewart was
elected, the Erpress alluded to the de-

majority, This is not only splendid
triumph Of Ameriean,sn, but q great po-
litical event, which is destined to exer.

tho views Of the veteran Statesman, Col.
benton IN respect to the encouragement
Of white labor in Missouri And he has
the manliness to make these views known
without any OF that circumlocution of
mystiica;ion which characteristics sd
many. Tie people Of Missouri hare hon-
r.dhim for ii, by making him, as We
think he Is now-tke next Governor of
