The Election in St. Louis.

The Radical Union ticket received 1000
majority in st. Louis. In speaking of the
result, the st. Louis Democrat says:
ga victory under such circumstances
by any Vote would be a signal triumph,
but when the Radical majority comes to
be counted by thousands. it tells a tale
which has indeed a significance. 1t de.
!ermlnes beyond all controversy the DO
litical status Of Missouri. AS St. Louis
goes--must go the State. II the two are
not already in complete accord, that re-
suit is merely a question Of time. In fact,
the battle for the mastery of Missouri was
fought between Radicalism and Conser-
vallsm in this city, on yesterday. and de.
cided. We have now the assurance, as
positive as passing events can make any
thing in the future, that Missouri at the
next election for President will give her
vote Tor That candidate who reprerents
Unionism upon a Radical plaVorm."

The November Elections Great
Union Triumphs.

The State Union ticket in New York is
carried by abou, 80, 900. probably over that
somewhat. The Legislature will probably
stand with a Union majority of thirty in the
House aud twelve in the Senate.
Minnesota wheels promptly and val.
iantly into the line Of the best doing loyal
States at the late election. Colonel Mil
Ter, The Union candidate for Goveno or, is
elected by 10000 majority, a gain of over
5000 over last year. Both branches Of
the Legislature will be nearly unanimous
ly Republican.
Scvepty.iour counties in Missouri, give
the Conservative ticket $3.50 majority on
the home vote. The soldiers vote so
far as heard from, reduces this majority TO
about 1900. There is little doubt it will
be overcome, and the Radical majority be
at least 5000 when the complete returns
are received. ,

4 VARy1SG.-The Washington Chronicle,
Of this morning. has the following warning to
the Northern Democrats The President OF
the United States and his Cabinet are not par
4isans. They are ministers of law and justice.
They would be traitors, if, in these times of ma
tional calamities and national dangers; they
were merely instruments in the hands Of palti-
sans or factionists. The politicians who have
been, and who are now, actively engaged in
organizing factions with view to weaken the
power Of the Administration, and to place OBJ
stacles in the way Of the Federal soldiers in the
field, are not friends Of the Union, and in their
unpatrlotic career are approaching a point Of
danger, The time seems to be near when
neither justice nor patriotism nor mercy can
continue to urge forbearance towards the lead
ers Of this class Of misguided or traitorous
men. The blood Of the brave defenders Of the
Union, shed on every battlefield, cries out
against them; and let them beware, lest the
terrible indignation Of an outraged people over
vholm them with speedy Vengeance.
The St. Louis papers say that several con
trabands died in that city Of starvation and
neglect last week.
The Boston papers mention that one capital
list Of that city collected on New Years day
dividends amounting to nearly one hundred
thousand dollars, and another who received a
dividend from single company Of $4,000.
4 thorough inspection Of the light - pound
ammunition, at Falmouth excepting the solid
shot, shows that the greater portion Of it is
worthless, owing to the haste and unworkman-
like manner in which the fuses were fitted and
SET Several casualties occurred during the re-
cent battle from this cause and Gen. Hunt,
Chief Of Gen, Burnside $ artillery, has caused
1t to be all returned and that Of more perfect
character substituted.
4 determined effort is now making in New
York to rid the community of all fractional
nojes-corporation or prlvate-except those
issued Jy the general government.
The revenue Of the Chesapeake and Ohio
Canal, for the year 1862, amounts to about
sixty thousand dollars, OF one-third the yield
when in its most prosperous condition. Re
cepts for December reached, say nine thous-
and dollars, and the navigation appears to be,
thus Tar, undisturbed. Some repairs will, Of
course, be necessary, (even without any mis-
nap as the spring advances, but brief sus-
enSlon only may be required therefor.
