The FRurTs OF TREAsox.-The lead.
ing wholesale merchants of St. Joseph
are now travelling through the upper
country, drumming for their respective
houses. The time was. not many years
ago. when the merchants of St. Joseph
had no need to take this plan to secure
trade. They were well kno n. and St.
Joseph WAS the trading point fopths up.
per country. The cause of this change
is plain. Missouri has endeavorsd to
carry out . reasonable plot; violencs
has reigned within her borders; and cred
it and security have become destroyed.
Some Of the leading papers Of St. Joseph
did their very utmost. in . very mean
way. to carry out the plot. The result
is. trade has left that city: and her lead.
ing merchants Ars reduced to the humili-
sting necessity Of going through the eosn
try in person. rssssuring the people. and
rs-sstablishins the fair reputation Of the
city. Has Missouri had enough Of ssess-
sion BY this time? II not, shs will have,
BY the time her Taxpayers bsvs footed
the bill Of expenses.

fOH It is now generally understood
that Ewing has Withdrawn from the Sen.
storial contest. A new combination has
been formed between Stanton and Pome-
roy. We observe that the late Ewing
organs have recently discovered Pomsroy
to be an extraordinary man. These shift
tings and autterines only show the weak.
ness of the opposition to Parrot. II it
amounted to anything more than . jeal.
