Buren, las been piping for some time past,
"Waywatd sisters. depart in peace !" At.

style that might or might MT woo even

CARDS slavery as An evil. and iBimieal 10
the best interests of Missouri, he is a
man Of the sternest sense of justice, and
would not see the rights Of the humblest
citisen invaded, or remove the shield of
the Constitution that deadly blow might
be given to slavery, which lie opposes -
His vote would be cast tomorrow for rid
ding Missouri of slavery if there was no
obstacles in the WV. As it is, he will
be found acting cordially with such minds
as Glover, for he is man Of his type, in
deyising the ways and means Tor The
