The Missouri CONSERVATIVES Cauyht.

The conservatives in Missouri have for some
time past claimed to be the peculiar friends
of Mr.. Lincoln and his administration; the
radicals, they said, were opposed to tho gov
eminent and Its policy, ami were not TO be
trusted In the direction of affairs. In the late
senatorial contest these conservatives avowcd
that they sought no other end than the e!ec-
tlon OF men who would give the administra-
tion cordial support against all schemes
whatever OF 'the radical disorganzerso -
Weary Of this incessant hobbling of the con-
servatiyes, the radicals determined to test the
sincerity OF the professions SO boisterously
made, and accordingly on the 18th instant the
following resolution was introduced in the
House OF Representatives:
Resolved b. the House of Represcptatiyes thc
Senate ccncurring therein, that General Order No.
l35, authorizing the enlistment of all able-bodied
negroes. whether free slave. meets with the cor.
dial appreciation of this General Assembly. and we
regret that ts publication has been delayed ntii the
recent election seemed TO warrantthat 1t would meet
with the general approval of loyal men. and we
would urge upon the general government the propri
ety OF establishing recruiting Offices especially In
the Sixth. Eighth and Ninth Congressional districts,

A bonibshell could not have occasioned a
greater sensation than this harmless rcsclu.
tion. II had scarcely been read when a score
OF conservatives lcaped to their feet with ob.
Jectlons. One moved to reject, another call
OF the House, third to lay on tho table. and
so ou through the whole gamut of parliament
tary devices. The peculiar friends OF the
Administration" shrunk from practical, hon
est test OF their professions. They were not
in favor of the government and Its policy:
their ostentatious prctence was pricked in q
moment, and the whole fabric fell limp and
shriveled to the ground. On vote to sus-
pend the rules, fity-nlne members declared
in The affirmative; bu. this not being two-
thirds OF the whole House, the resolution was
laid over TO come up some other time Every
member who voted against suspension or
the rules, in order that the resolution might
be read a second time, voted week ago for
the copperhead candidates for the United States
senate. All, doubtless, would vote to-mor.
row 10 restore slavery over ever rod Of Mis-
souri, soil, and become themselves catchers OF
slaves and patrons of traitors, il thereby the
