MINSOVBI POLITICS
Ever since the sceptre c political power
fell from the grasp of. Col ftrostAs LI.
Brirrog, in Missouri, political combine•
Lions in that State have been growirw
more and More ine.arll, - :..ble, with each
succeeding election. This confusion ap•
pears to have reached its climax. in the
late election of United States Senators by
the Missouri Legislature. The gentle•
men.elocted are. Mr, GaAT.. , BROWN, one
of the most radical Abolitionists in St.
Louis, and Hon. JOHN B. HENDERSON,
conservative of the gradual emancipation
school. How the same Legislature ever
selected two Senators who differ ao widely
as they do, upoe the great question which
has been, and is now, shaking Missouri to
its centre, is• one of the queer things in
politics which passes our comprehension.
In nothing do they agree : and the friends
of HENDERSON could have defeated

the vote cast we tv-rceiye that 13at,ws re

announitd, when FIENDERsottt received 82
votes, or eight more than were given to

it was brought about by ' a cotabluation
of very discordant materiabs: and con

THE PITTSBURGH POST: WEDNESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 18, 1836.
ARKANSAS
There has been for sums time a very
wholesome agitation going on in the State
of Arkansas, is tavor of returniogto the
embraces of the old Hag and Union. It now
depends upon the national Administratien
to say whether that repentant Common
wealth shall be speedily restored to her
original place in the Union. If conditions
about slavery are insisted upon, as in the
case i f I.3ilis.iena, it wall be palpable thee
the prosecution of hostilities against the
rebels are not for the restoration of the
Union, but tcr a naked crusade against
negro slavery. Meet uge. se.ye the Re .
publican, have been recently held at dif
terent points in the State which demon-
strate that it is now Iron from rebel rule.
And we must believe in the transition to
ehelter under the old flag, she will have
.suss to know and feel that ehe has made
a good exchange. Everything will be
done, we trust, to reanimate the Union
feeling that has been dormant or sitied.
All who are well-affected to the l nion,
no matter how, under duress they have
been compelled to act heretofore—and
all, no matter what their cintecedente,
who give signs that they are now truly
willing to come hack to their allegiance
and to support the Union and its Govern
ment, -without any rquivocatlen or men
tal reservation"--cf these there are a
very large mejerity in Arkanree. their
feelings and wielies are expressed by such
men as Mr. GASTT whose admirable let
ter we published a few days ago.
They are expressed el,u iu the action
of each a besting as wee held on the 31st

oldest and most prominent citizens were
the prime movers, being such men as Dr.

is scarce and sells high, industry, at very
little tisk, might make a fortune
"The ladies of the country must again
reinforce the army. There is a great
scarcity of socks in the army of Northern
Virginia. Geo. Lee has lately, we are ad
vised, called upon the ladies of Richmond
to aid him in procuring sacks for his army.
We hope that the mothers, sisters and
aunts of the gellant soldiers will speedily
knit socks for their relatives, and that
every lady will feel herself especially call
ed upon to aid in procuring socks for the
army. There is, we know, great difficulty
in purchasing yarns, but where yarn can
not be procured, cotton is better tha:i
nothing. Let the ladies of Richmond
meet together and take this important mat
ter under their charge. Let all 'club dace
ing parties' cease, and knitting parties
meet to ply the needles for the benefit of
the soldiers.—
The Situation of &num. : Another Re,,
The Examiner is in a bad humor touch
ing affairs in the Southwest. It says:
"The country may as well prepare itself
for another retreat in the West. The in
dications of the annual migration of bir . .B
are scarcely more unerring than are the
auguries which foretell the disappointment
of the high expectations formed of the re•
stilts to be attained in that quarter. After
a continuance of favorable prognostics, to
which additional strength was given by the
confident tone of the President since his
recent tour of inspection ; after reiter-ted
assurances of the straits to which the
enemy was reduced, of the precarious ten
ore of his communications, the difficulties
of subsistence by which he was pressed,
and the impossibility of hie long contin
uance in his present position, we now note
a certain and somewhat indefinable charge
of tone, which, to a people rendered
doubly acute by long habit and deep Inter
est, serves to mark the fall of the barome
ter, and give warning of the coming skit m.
* * "Consistent accounts reach
us, not only of mistakes in execution, but
of disagreement and discord in the coun
cils of the Western army. It is certain
that with such a state of things full effi , ien
cy cannot be expected from any army .•

The probability of an invasion or an at
tempt at invasion of Texas, by way of the
Gulf, becomes more and more apparent
day by day. When the invasion will take
place or in what force we do not know :
but this we do know, TCXELi was never so
well prepared for the enemy as she is at
this moment, and no force at all likely to
visit us can by any pos.,ibiiity penetrate
to any distance in the country. The enemy
has thought that the Trim; Miseissippi
Department was stripped of men and ley
en inviting and easy conquest to their
arms. lhey have marched upon us with
no less than three columns of invasion,
viz : by the Indian Nation above Little
Rock, by Monroe toward Alexandria. and
by the Sabine. Every one of them has
been met and turned back, and they have
found what they supposed a deserted
country alive with troops and prepared
for them at all points, even the most un-
expected and insignificant. We need not
give in detail our forces. besides tile
regular troops, to which should be added
all the paroled prisoners from Vicksburg
and Port Hudson, and the additional
forces now being mustered in from con
scription, we shall have from the Stele
draft more than the number that draft
called for, and also a force to be by no
means displaced, from volunteers over
and under age, exempts, etc. The intel
ligent reader need not be told that these
forces could with no difficulty reEd.F.:
progress of an invading c,lumn ~1 50,000
