ST. LOUIS Nov q. 1863
There is nothing interesting in the military
situation in this State While there plenty OF Reb-
els ready for mischief there Rebels in arms who
are capable of any serious mischief We occasionally
hear of the robbery farmers and travellers Of horses
and the mall riders and stage lines still to require
an escort Of cavalry Beyond this, tho war has practi
cay subsidized in this State for the present though the
dcsolaon and ruin in fifteen or twenty counties serve
TO remind that Rebel raid outbreak Of guer.
rlas may arouse our troops from repcse at any mo-
ment.
The deed has been consummated. The Conservative
County Clerks in the interior have undertaken to dis
franchise the soldiers and already sufficient returns
have been thrown by the local to defeat
the Radicals Nothing better was expected. Menwh
have been educated in the preudices Of Slavery and
haven't sufficient manhood to s effect upon CON-
mon honesty when unressted, are capable OF any
crime which will prcong its existence. The
soldiers vote. honestly counted. would have
elected the Radical State ticket BY 800 majority but
few votes thrown out here and few more there has
nullifed this majority and changed the result IN 81.

and several of the North Missouri Pr0Sayery counties
and especially those in the dark and bloody Win Con

result What makes is that there is no remedy
