St. Louis Elec ion.

The election of Mayor and City officers for
st. Louis came off on the 9th inst. Three tick
cts were run-the Pro-Slavery Border Ru1han
Democracy heading theirs with the name OF
BERNARD PRATT, very popular man, for May
or and the Know NothiHgs placing '" CARR
LANE on the ticket for the same office. The
Repu blicans headed their ticket with the name
of JOHN NJ WISER for Mayor. Who, with his
friends, came out openly in favor of Free Soil
princl plies, and for the emanci patton Of slavery
in Missouri. The contest animated one.
and resulted in a glorious triumph of Anti
Slavery prineiples.-as follows Winner. 5407 !;
Pratt. 3759 Lane. 203l Wlner's majority over
Pratt 72o This Is victory the enemy
IN his own country one of the first fruits of the
Drtd Scott decision. The Border Ruffian
gans, out of ST. Louis, at once raised the cry of
union between the Republicans and know
Nothings, but they are silenced BY the Dark
Lantern organ III ST. Louis. which contradicts
The statement by saying that nine out of every
ten Know Nothings who refused tn vote for
Lane, the regular X. n. candidate. voted for
Pratt
