THE Missouri ELEcTIoN.-The issue
in the August election in Missouri, is
now admitted to be on both sides, eman,
cipation or slavery. The free soil papers
are boldly and freely discussing the
question Of making Missouri free State,
and they are fully prepared to submit
the decision to the ballot box, with en-
tire confidence of success. The positions
they assume would have been startling
a few years ago, in any slave State. In
the struggle to gain Kansas, the slave in
terest will loose Missouri. The German
Democratic paper of st. Louis, makes
the following open declarations:
Slavery, IN reality, is burden on Mis-
souri,; it is an expensive, corrupting affair
even for our shareholders; it is a wrong in
fiicted on the great majority of our whites,
who, in the first place, neither own slaves
nor desire slaves, and whose industry canno,
compete with that Of their neighbors in the
free States, SO lorg as slave labor continues
to frighten away the migration of free white
people,! But more than that, slavery is even
a positive impossibility in Missouri, SO soon
as Kansas will have constituted herself a free
State; and Missouri thereby will on all sides
be surrounded by free States.

GIVE learn from Capt. Fuller, that
the recent heavy rains have been making
sad work with the canal. The follow
ing breaks have occurred between here
and Terre Haute:
At Feesler's Ferry about ~ miles
from this city, there is bad break. 1t
is supposed that it will take at least a
month to repair it. About two miles
below Fort Gibson, 20 miles from Evans
ville,- there has another break occurred,
though not bad one. At the first lock,
22 miles from this place. is slight
break, which is, probably, mended by
this time. 1t also broke at Kings store
eight miles from this place, but it is
slight, and Mr.. Fuller went up to repair
it last evening, and, doubtless it is al
right by this time. With the exception
of the break at Feesler's Ferry the dam
age is slight, but that break will mate
rally retard shipments.

@Rev. Dudley A. Tying. the eminent
Episcopal clergyman in Philadelphia
who withdrew from his church by the
opposition of his congregation to his
views on slavery-died in that city on
Monday last, under very painful circum-
stances. On Saturday morning, he
stepped into an establishment to view
the working Of q machine for Smelling
corn. He placed his arm upon part Of
the machine, where the sleeve Of his gar.
ment became entangled in the wheels
and drew his arm in and crushed and
lacerated it in shocking manner. Nor.
LITIGATION ensued, and an attempt was
made 10 save his life by smputating the
limb at the shoulder; but it was loo late
he died on Monday. He had just be-
come the pastor Of new and fourishinl
Independent church. He moved above
and outside the range Of sectarian bigot
~, or ecclesiastical exclusiveness; ant
he was generally regarded as one of tn,
most promising ministers Of the age.

81 The princely fortune of Col. Ere |
mont, appears to be in danger Of being
swept away by a recent decision of the
Supreme Court, Of California. The Ma
riposa grant was confirmed to him by
the United States Court, and he took
possession Of it, under that decision, and
by aid of the State authorities. He
granted leases to he occupants of it. and
among others, in April 1857, he made
one to the Mercer Mining Company at
rent of s.. 900 per month. The Com
pany had occupied the land for six years
previously, and had expended $4,000
in machinery and improvements. The
suit was brought to recover damages and
the possession from Fremont. The
points made in the case were
Whether the title to the mineral
passed to Col. Fremont with his confirm
ed grant to the real estate.
2 Whether, conceding that it did not,
the defendant had the right to extract the
gold while the title in fee simple Of the
land is in the lessor Of the plaintiff.
The court held that in the original
grant, the mineral rights were reserved
to the government Of Mexico, and passed
by the treaty Of cession to the govern
men. of the United States, and have not
passed from the United States to Col.
Fremont by the confirmation Of his title
He has acquired no more than was pos
sessed by the original Mexican grantee
from whose grant the Mexican Govern
ment reserved the gold. The court de.
cided that an owner Of a Mining claim
had q good vested title to the property
till his title is Invested by the exercise
of the superior right Of the sovereign pro
prietor. Judgement was given for the
lessees. According to this decision, tn
Federal Government is the owner Of al
the gold, quick silver, iron, copper, sill
yer, diamonds, and what not, that exist
in California, and they may be taken b.
any one, till such time as the govern
ment may think proper to assume tn
control of them. The principle on whic
the decision is predicated is q very plat
e one, and constantly sustained and prac
J, ticcd upon in the transfer Of land cover
ing mineral rights in all the States. Bu

did not reserve the right to mine and r,
