1--WE are glad to see that the Union
press of this State is beginning to speak
out in favor Of immediate and uncondi-
tional Emancipation. That is the only
sure remedy for our existing evils, and it
is folly TO longer shut our eyes TO that
fact No higher-sounding nonsense
about 'yadicioNs systesa Of gradual eindh-
cipati0a" will satisfy the true Union men
of Missouri, and the sooner the venerable
grandmothcrs composing the defanot
State Convention understand the matter,
the better it will be for the peace Of the
State. % "a 3tea'aal

long enough from slavery, and her patri-
otto citizens have determined TO sud
denly destroy il, and that without RENE
dy, They will not wait Eve, ten,
twenty, nor forty years for il, but will
finish the job during the next twelve
months No plan short Of immediate and
unconditional Emancipation will satis-
fy the people"
The above is from Che Springfield Ms

paper in The Southwestern portion of
this State. Thus, one after another do
the loyal papers OF Missouri speak out
More than half Of the Union papers Of
this State, outside OF 81. Louis, have
now delared In favor ofimmediaie eman-
cipation. This fact tells what the SEN

Of Missouri was understood 10 be con-

been with the army Tor some time, says
there cannot be a doubt that, through

rebels are actually engaged in raising
negro regiments, for it is only from such
material that they can now recruit their
ranks with able bodied men. ~
There isno doubt Of iti he who doubts
IT, would doubt Of his own existence.
