The Gcr,na,,s In Missouri.

A writer in the Atlantic for June,
pays Just tribute TO patriotic Ger
mans who saved st. Louis and Mis-.
souri, from the bloody hands of ma
tive American traitors. He says:
The city being midway between
the Northern Lakes and the Gulf oil
Mexico, and Offering opportunities
TO men OF enterprise has attracted
thousands of Northern people who
have been and are now powerful
propelling force in st. Louis and in
the wondrous State of Missouri.
Add to these various elements, sixty
thousand Germans whom the seces
sionists OF st. Louis compliment with
the title of Damned Dutch'-utter-
ing the words with that ferocious en-
phasis which they usually reserve
exclusively for the Damned Yam
KEGS Our placid and good natured
German friends are not apt to ex.
cite the ire Of our fellow citizens =
but at st. Louis they have contrived
to make themselves abhorrcd by the
aristocracy' of the place, nine In
ten OF whom were seoessionists.- -
Reason it was the loyal and Demo.
cratic Germans, who. in 1861, saved
the city from falling into the hands
of the rebels, and it is thee Germans,
who, TO day constitute. the strength
of the United states in the State OF
Missouri. Let us drink at all future
Union banquets, in foaming lager, to
the Damned Dutch of st. Louis,
for truly we owe them honor and
gratitude"
We think the above will hold true
with regard to the loyalty OF the Ger
mans, generally. In Texas, they
resisted secession to the last, and
many of them became martyrs to the
Union cause.
