MISSOURI.

There arc now ten thousand United
States troops in Missouri, occupying st.
Louis, Hannibal, St. Joseph, Kansas City,
Jefferson City, Birds Point and Rol1o, (the
terminus Of tie Southwest branch Of the
Pacific r. R.,) beside seven thousand re-
serves in the various camps Of Illinois.
Ti:is pcnderous coil insures the speedy re-
turn Of peace to that State, whose Gov
e1nc7, according TO the St. Louis Repu5H-
can, recently declared tliat he would sta1s
Missouri out Of tAe Union or take her to
Ill.," He can do neither. He is taking
himself thither as rapidly as could be
desired.
The unfortunate shooting affair in St.
Louis is Of little consequence except to the
Immediate sufferers. We had supposed
that the .assassins in that city had had
about enough experience Of firing on
troops from windows and street corners,
but it seems We were mistaken They VIII
get enough by and by.
