GOV. jackson and Secession.

The Jefferson Eraminer of the Odd,
referring to the occupancy of Missouri by
Federal troops, says:
We believe that the exercise Of the Fed
ersl military power in this State was un.
called for and unwarranted by any actual
necessity. The pretett that Gov. Jack ion
was trying to take the State out Of the I'm.
ion, we have not credited. To believe
that with the majority of the people op.
posed 10 il, and with the armed powers of
the Government at hand ready 10 crush tile
attempt, he could have entertained such an
idea, was TO believe that he wa: destitute
OF common sense and reason. II Tetr indi.
viduats here and there, in the STATE, may
havs felt such desire, but the people them
selres had t,me and again expressed their
opposition, chi hence ibe hdne not regarded
the consumnsataon of anything like secession
movement ase,ther possible or probable.

"pretext" that Gov. Jackson was irving
TO take the State out Of the Union. Saws

Test 0aths.

The State Journal of last Saturday trans.
lstes the following oath, from the .Anziss~,
which the Jefferson correspondent Of tina;
paper says the State officers subscribed
to, before re.assuming the duties Of their
respective Departments:
I'VE solemnly swear that faithful allie
glance to the United States Of America is
our FIRST duty; that we will deport our.
selves as good and loyal citizens, and Will
strictly obey the commands of the President
Of the United States and his com nissioned
officers: that we will sustain and defend
the Constitution and laws of the United
States against any government hostile there
to. and that We will never support trail
tor to the United States, So help us God"
The journal denOunces this oath, in
STRONG terms, and coarsely abuses the nen
who subscribed to it. One objection TO the
oath 10. that in addition to being faithful to
the Constitution, the commands Of ''the
President" and his commissioned officers"
must be sbeyed. This is pretty steep, We
confess, and do not marvel that secession
ist should choke at it.
Per contra, let us see what Gov. Jack
son and his SECESSION Legislature prescribed
for the good people of the State, in their
MiIit airy Law. We append the oath:
"You, each and every one of you, do
solemnly swear, or affirm, as the case
may be- that you will bear true allegiance
10 the State of Missouri, and that you will
serve her honestly and faithfully, against
all her enemies or opposers, whatsoever;
that you will support the Constitution of
the State oil Missouri, and OBSERVE AND
ORGY TIE ORDERS OF THE GOVERNOR OF
MISSOURI, and the ORDERS OF THE OFFICERS
APPOINTED OVER Iou, whilst on duty, &C.
cording to the rules and articles for the
government Of the Missouri State Guard,
SO help YOU God"
This makes up the issue-prosents the
bill of faro. Let us place the two PROPOSE.
lions side by side, and see how they look.
If one be hard for Seces sionist, is not the
other tolerably binding on a UnionIst?
KING LINCOLN. KING Jackson.
"Obey the commands "Obey the orders OF
OF the President Of the the Governor of Mis-
United States and his souri,, and the orders OF
commissioned officers" the officers appointed
over YOU"
"So help you God" in either case!
The object Of tn. Lincoln oath Is to re-
tain Missouri in the Union. The object Of
the Jackson oath is 10 take Missouri but of
