SENATOR TRUSTEN POLK.

Ex-Governor Polk, senator from the State of
Missouri arrived in this city yesterday and is stop
ping at Browns Hotel. He visits Washington on
urgent public business, and will probably only
remain few days Senator Polk is endeared 70 the
democracy of Missouri, ess by his talents and pu
rity of life than by his zeal efficiency and services
in the democratic cause. His party friends again
and again called upon him to lead the forlorn hope in
the ST. Louis congressional district and he never for
moment hesitated or altered in carrying their ban
ner and battling with the enemy to the last. In his
canvass for the Office of governor last year his eff
forts were brilliant and successful And after few
months service in the highest Office in the gift of
the people of the State, he placed by the egisa
ture in his present position, which opens to him a
new field of labor and usefulness, and where he is
destined to add to his reputation, and to increase his
hold upon the confidence and affections of the people
of his State.

HON HENRY G. BURNETT, OF KENTUCKY.

We are glad to see that this distinguished demo
crat is again candidate for Congress in his district
During his late term, though of the youngest
gentlemen Of the body, he earned the reputation by
his industrious habits and fine speaking talent, of
being one of the best and most useful members of
the House. His powerful and conclusive speech
against the election Of Mr.. Fillmore was circulated
by the Democratic National Committee with great
effect during the recent canvass. His speech on the
claim of the State Of Kentucky to jurisdiction over
Wolf island which included the release upon the
part of the general government Of all claim to the
lands thereon was an effort which did him great
Justice and which his constituents should be slow
to forget. Mr.. Burnett's becoming modesty re-
strained him from taking that frequent part in the
debates of the House for which his talents so emf
nently fitted him; but we predict for him in the
next House prominent and useful career He is
opposed by competitor sailing under the pratical
colors of independent" Let not the democracy. how
ever, be deceived by any such fimsy DISCUSSES of
the enemy but let them rally around that gallant
champion SO worthy of respected a constituency,
and return to the next Congress the talented and eo-

GOV. SAMUEL MEDARY, OF MINNESOTA.

This veteran politician and democrat is now in the
city, arranging some pressing matters in connexion
with his duties concerning the Indian tribes within
his jurisdiction, and other business relating to his
official position. Governor Medary has already had
to grapple with some delicate and difficult questions
connected with his official duties, but he has met and
decided them promptly and satisfactorily. He is
meeting the highest expectation of his friends and,
we doubt not, will command the respect of his
enemies.
The Governor is stopping at Wizards but will
leave to-day for Minnesota.
