man, with sanguinc bilious facs,a thought

of all absut him. noticed that after tea
an officer approached him on business,
made his communication, was listened to,
was replied to, and disappeared; all as

a much more military and systematic form
since his arrival. His military character

Of men, muscle and bayonets that were as.

WHEREAS, Inasmuch as the Government

lice, and right, as is plainly laid down by
by the authors Of its existence in written
Constitution, under which we have been
blessed with peace, quiet and happiness
almost uninterrupted for period of nearly
eighty years; we, as loyal patriots. will, to
the best Of our ability and judgment, defsnd,

cessien."
2d.-That we recognise in the aoiion of
those at present constituting our State
Government, fetal disregard of the will
Of the Psople-a blind and desperate ia
uaticism, and an apparent determination 10
plunge this State ints rebellion, regardless
of the consequences to the State, as well
as against the known will of the people
Therefore, as last resort, and as the only
alternative left the people in this trying
crisis in the affairs Of our State, we ear
nestly recommend that the Convention OF
the State be speedily assembled, and that
the constitution of the State be so changed
as to make vacant the executive and Leg
i,lstive Offices; and that ON election be or
dersd 10 fill such vacancies at the earliest
period convenient with the welfare, and
further, that we pledge ourselves to use
our best eyerlions to sustain the Conven.
ton in such action, and also TO sustain the
constitutional authority Of the United States
within the State of Missouri.
3d.-Tkat we heartily shdorse the pro-
csedings Of our State Convention. and that
We have an abiding confidence in the pa
triOtism and integrity of our delegates 10
