Gov. jackson is in the city-and he is stop
ping at the Planters House-and slept last
night for the first time for many weeks under
the stars and st1ipes-a fine American flag
waving from The hotel roof . How do you
suppose he screwed up courage to conc to
st. Louis? It is notorious that he has been
frightened out Of his wits on dozen different
papers Of the Executive Office have been
packed up and eecreted, aud On Saturday
night a carriage and four horses all harnessed,
were kept In readiness through the night to
convey the Governor and famil u to place Of
safety in case q. g. troops, or rather Frank
Blair and bis "honid German regiments"
belonging to the Stale and held subject to
the control Of Coy. Jackson have been removed
from Jefe1Eon City to Boonyille and other

would not interfere with his vzeit In any way
without the orders Of his supeTiors, or through

dec1aratlon was equivalent to pass, aud Gov.
Claib consented to trust his precious pe1eou
to the tender mercies Of st. Louis.
It Is reported on tho street to-day, that His
E1ce11ency came hither to make treaty with
Gen. Lyon and Frank Blair: The probability
is that he won't succeed IN doing anythIng of
the kind. Neither Lyon or Blair. will be SO
