aud the Union men would have rallied win alaofiy 70
the support Of the banner Of the Union. Inc Iuo.
frightened nobody wore than the Governor on .oa'
point our informant who was then IN Jefferson Wy,
speaks from actual observation. Governor Jackson
positively treubied great was his filght; ne
knew he guilty Of treason, and that II wouid no'
be good for him at present TO fall into the hands o 'ne
Government. .
The Legislature was hurriedly assembled at md
night. Gov. Jackson rushed W Idly into the Senate,
and threw himself under IT, protection. The creates
excitement prevailed in both houses. The cooler Lead
Of the Secession movement took advantage oil te
excitement TO press through the various measures
looking to Secession, which, from their obnoxious
character, had met with strong opposition Before
day light the military and similar bills OF usurpson
were passed. Under these laws, the Governor can
not only demand the service Of every citizen for the
State but by proclamation forbid their service under
the United States In defiance Of the Constitution OF
the State the Governor authorized TO use funds
apart for educational and other purposes In Proeur'
ing arns. Should these be purchased aud taken
into the State, but Secessionists viii get hold OF
them.
When our informant left Northern Missouri, Sece-
sion encampment was to be formed at Georgetown,
under Gen. Clarke. Military companies TO the num-
Der Of 800 had been ordered TO rendezvous there,
expecting 10 get arms from st. Louis.
Another encampment was ordered at Liberty, where
some two dozen pieces of artillery belonging to the
State forwarded, and also one hundred breeci-
loading muskes, foreibly taken from warehouse IN
awe the Union citizens Of that portion Of the State.
Onr informant says that he himself heard Gov:
Jackson say OH the 18th Of December, that Missouri
must be forced of the Union-that he and Others
were pledged ~ it, and II must be DONE he l, rs
great and wicked traitor Gs Cobb or Floyd.
On bis way here, the gentleman had al interview,
al 81. Louis, with Gen. Harvey. lie is making hate
to Washington, to persuade the Government to SEND
two regiments into Northern Missouri eseorthg
arms for Union men. All they want il arms, and a
trustworthy force to rally around lie says he -
willing to sacrifice everything he owns, negroes and
ALL the Stars and Stripes, and thousands of o'he
Mlssourians are just like him.
PERSECUTION OF UNION MEN IN MISSOURI.
The 81. Louis Democrat says the Union men OF
St. Louis and vicinity may congratulate themselves on
the crushing out Of the Secession monster IN their
midst but their friends in the interior are undoubtedly
