TtucBATTLEI IN DIISSOURI.
A great battle is ta.be, fought ak Missouri,
next August. The fight will be a novel one.
Instead of being a two-httUdecf game it will be
a three cornered affair. Missouri will be ti
political triangle, - theTernersuf'which will be
occupied by Whigs, Bentonitev and Antics re
spectively. The President' and Old Bullion,
of Washington, got, at loggerheads about the
post-office, and of Course their respective fol
lowers had to follow suit. Instead of the Ben
tonites being aided by the , Atchison men it
turns out that the latter have concluded to et}•
tho ring, and take a hand in the fight on their
own private account. By the aid of Govern
ment pattonage they hope to do something
handsome. Two hundred and fifty have flock
ed to the standard, and recruiting officers are
searching the highways, by, ways, hedges and
hill-country round about St. Louis, in quest
of further reinforcements. There will be a
wonderful shaking in the valley of dry bones
of Missouri vilifies. The Atchison men plead
for support of a tottering President; the Ben
tonites for their adheience to their chief.—
They; are consequently becoming intensly hos
tile to each other, and have but little time to
bate the Whigs.
The Whigs pre not idle. All over the State
enthusiastic and harmonies meetings aro being
hold to oranise for the contest.
• THE POSTMASUIVSA 61 , 1ERAL-A PORTRAIT.—
The Galena Jeffersonian, one of the ablest
Democratic papers in Illinois, remarking upon
the present mail facilities for the West, con
cludes as follows:
"The truth is, the Postmaster General is a
vain, weak, incomptient man; as long as ho is
nt the bead of the Department, the West need
expect no justice. His vision does not extend
outside of Pennsylvania."
The Galena editor has formed a pretty cor
rect idea of the Postmaster General; but he
errs in one particular, if- be wishes to convey
the idea that that functionary extends his vi•
sion over the whole broad surface of Pennsyl
vania. A hut° portion of the Democracy of
Pennsylvania are blind to. Mr. Campbell's
merits, and ho is blind to ti a wants and wish

GOOD .I!lxwi:—The Relief Notes. we are glad .
to learn, will note bo taken out of circulation
pretty rapidly, an amendment to the. appro
priation bill basing been adopted by 'the House
requiring ..the cancellation of till tlio'se notes
hereafter paid into,the Treasury, and prohib
iting their • being - paid out. A bill for this
passed the Senate more tharra month :igo, bat
has been hanging in the House.--To secure,
its paisage at the, present sessidn it has been
attached to the appropriation bill.. The speedy
and permanent disappearance of this greasy,
filthy trash is a consummation devoutly to be
wished,'atid we doubt not that ere long we will
have an abundant supply of small gold and sil
ver coin to take its place. •
The:itbove paragraph, or one of similar im
port, says:the Lancaster Examiner, has had nn
extensive circulation through the press, and
it.unoontradicted will leave an erroneous im
pression- on the public! mind. The section put
in the appropriation bill , in the Senate, for
bidding the paying of-relief issues out of the
State Treasury was negatived in the house
through the direll interference of the State,admiu
istration. A section was .retained, liowevpr,
appropriating the whole of the Sinking Fund
hereafter to the redemption of the relief is
sues, and under its operation, if the ndminis
(ration carries out the law in good faith, they
will all be redeemed in about two years. If
the other sentionbad been retained they would
all have been withdrawn in about one year.
The responsibility of keeping these notes in
circulation rests upon the present administra
tion. In his last two annual messages, Gov:
Bigler professed great anxiety for their speedy
cancellntion, but when a practical measure is
proposed, which won d effectually accomplish
the result he pretends to desire, his anxiety'
to defeat it is just as great. The facts iirthis'
case, as in most others, must convince any
candid inquirer that the Governor's objections
to a small paper currency are the sheerest
humbugs imaginable.
Will nut those dertiocratie-papers which have
circulated the report of the Immediate cancel
lation of the relief issues, have the fairness to
inform their readers that Governer Bigler's
administration put its veto on that measure ?.
FROM CHINA.—We have reports that the re
bele have captured the great city of Pekin, the
capital of the Chinese empire, but that subse
quently the Mongol 'tartars made a decent
and drove them from the place. But this ru
mor seems to have been 'premature, as later
dates make no mention Of it. It seems, how
eller to be certain that a large body of insurc
gents - from Nankin marched to 'the "city of
Yangdeow, formed a junction of the rebel force
there, drove. all the imperialists, and carving
the garrisbn with them, marched northward.
At - Shanghae the insurgents are still in pos
session, and have repelled another attack of
the imperialists, who sprung a mine. Lin, the
cavalry general of the insurgents, was woun
ded in the contest, and had placed himself in
charge of an English physiaion.

afternoon last at the precise time it was nn•
nounced to occur, and groups of persons were
to be aeon in the streets with their smoked
glasses enjoying the novel spectacle. All the
calculations se to its commencement, duration
and appearance proved strictly correct. Jere
the eclipse Was not annular, the visible part
of the sail at the period of its greatest obscu

The eclipse commenced ut ten minutes past
four o'clock, P. M., was at its height about
twenty minutes past five o'clock, and ended at
thirty two minutes past six o'clock, the dura
tion being two hours and twenty three min
utes. Tho eclipse was visible in an annular
form in the northern port of New F i nland and

of a pale, sickly, lurid caste.

garA Revolution in Cuba is talked about
in z rather vague manner by various American
journals, the information being said to baler
nished by private letters froth the Island.—
One account is. that trouble is caused by the
recent decrees of the ,Captaiti General in rela
tion to slavery, the slave trade, the elevation
of the condition of the slaves and free blacks,
etc., in consequence of which the greatest
commotion prevails throughout the Island
_among the white population, so that the Span
iards are joining the insurrectionary party in
great numbers. These statements occur in
journals which - have heretofore favored the
Cuban fillibutitering attempts. But they also
occur in the letters of well informed Washing
ton correspondents. They cannot be regarded
otherwise than with suspicion, coming, as they
do, directly upon the heels of the passage of
the Nebraska bill, and serving the useful pur
pose of diverting public attention from that
enormity.

- FUGIVIVE SDAVIG EXCITEDIErii ,
IN BOSTON.
A Deputy Dleeehul Killed
There was an Immense excitement this eve
ning on-acoount of the arrest of Burns. the al
leged fugitive slave. The pall fOr the meeting
In Paneuil Hull attracted hundreds more thou
could gain an entrance. The principal Spea
kers were Wendell 'Phillips, Theodore Parker
Prancis W. Bird. The tenerof the speeches
were of a highly inflammatory character,
nounoing the fugitive wave law as one which
should not be obeyed, and counselling open
resistprice. About 9a. o'clock, a motion one
made to adjourn to the Court Ilona° et 9 o'-
clock to morrow morning, when the exami
a
tion is to take place. The motion was corr ed
by noolamition. Immediately upon the a. -
nouricomeet of this determination, a - portal
rushed into the Hall, exolaiming--"There'e a
orew of negroes in Court Sqtiare, attacking the
Court house where Barnes is Confined!"
— This — announcernent — censed -- ntr-immediato
rush of from 2000 . to 9000 excited people to
Court Square. An attempt was at once made
to force open the Court house door, hut, owing
to the strong fastenings, failed. The lending
rioters then went to the west entrance, end by
means of heavy planks and stones forced
passage through the panels of the door and by
the side windows. Numerous pistols `word
Fred, and the mob became of the moat formi
dable character. The Centre watch liousv
being in the immediate vicinity, a posse, of
determined watchmen dashed in, and succeed
ed in arresting eight or ten of the leading rio-
Aers, after a desperate conflict. This prompt
arrest of the .ringleaders suppressed fattier
violence. The increased pollee force soon
after arrived upon the ground, and stationed
themselves-at the - several entrance - 1i or the
Court House, and order will probably be pre
served during the night.
Barns is confined in the upper part of the
building. The officers in charge of him are
well armed,, and, had the mob gained access
to the room, it is doubtful if. they could havo
carried him off. Col. Settle, who claimed
Barns, was arrested on
,the charge pf attempt
ing to kidnap a citizens of Massachusetts end
is held under hail. The examination of Barns
takes pines at 9 o'clock to morrow morning.
It is openly said that, if the decision is against
freedom, he will be forcibly rescued.
Boston, May 27-1 o'clock —ln the case of
Anthony Burns, the fugitive slave nrrested
here on Wednesday night, the Commissioner
Judge Loring, sperit from.,lo to 12 o'clock to
day in hearing the argument ofopposing coun
sel, on a motion for poqtponment. The exam
ination is adjourned till Monday nt'll
The feeling continues strong, mule considera
ble crowd surounds the court•house. One of
theoounsel for the claimant anouncee that the
latter offers to sell Burns to the nLolitionists
here. Price not named. All .the Dann
rooms are guarded by soldiers. Fears of fur
ther violence are apprehended. The Mayor
has issued n proclamation calling on the Citi
zens to assist in preserving order—ne the law
must be obeyed whatever the consequences
may be.
During the fugitiye slave riot last night
James Bache!der, one of the special officers
of 'the U. 8. Marshal, was shot dead. He,
with other officers. were" stationed on the stairs
inside the Court house, and was shot immedi
ately after the Western door was stove.in.
Boston, May 28.—The case of the fugitive
slave Burns has caused a sabboth of great ex
eimment in our unusually quiet city, and con
tinues to agitate the public mind.
Indications of an organized attempt to lynch
the Rev. Th4dore Parker and Wendell Phil
lips, who are looked upon as the instigators of
the recent — onfinges .has induced the Mayor
to detail a strong police, force for the proteo
tion of their persons and property„ There
has however been no outbreak to-day. The
Court House Square was cleared last night
abd the court house surounded with rope fen
ces. A detachment of one hundred United
States tree; s are garrisoning the court house, •
anti"two companies of Boston military are quar
tered in the City Hall.
Printed nodal:tit - were left in every church
and pulpit this-morning, requesting the pray
ers of the congregation for the escape of Burns
from his oppressors. The abolitionists aro .
very active in, getting up -seoret-rtneetings.—
Large delegations are expected from Salem
Worcester and New Bedford, and ether places
to-morrow.
BOSTON, May 20.—The city is still excited
.and a large crowd •were assembled in Court
Squareat an early hour in the morning. The
prisoner was brought into Court under a strong
escort. He was not manacled. The U. S.
Marines tire on duty to protect the Court
House. The officers prevented a rush into the
Court House, but the mob outside is'very
large, and at times quite turbulent. The tes
timony in identifying the prisoner is positive.
A large number of persons have arrived hero
during the day from adjacent towns, some of
them coming in clubs. It is thought that if
the prisoner is remtp3ded.into slavery, a bloody
and sangpinary riot will °nacre. The military
force undOr a'reis to-day is very strong. • The
U. S. Marahal•will vindicate the supremacy of
the laws nt off hazards.
