In singling Judge Sullens out of all the rest straits to which the Reeord was foreed to fiad any ground whatever on which to fight this gentleman. shows the GIVE US THE NAMES. The Times called on the Record last week tomake good its cherges that “the county and city were bank rupt because of mismanagement, if not malfeasance of democrats in office.” This it has failed to do. It as usual engaged in considerable sophistry and answers our questiou by asking others. It engages in some silly twaddle about Dickinson being counted in as city Marshal, thereby subjecting the city to enon- mous costs, possibly one hundred dollars. We affirm that Dickerson was fairly elected, having received a majority of the votes cast, by not counting the three Fox votes, and they afterwards admitted that they were not legal voters and tried to get their ballots back. Mr. Morgan exercised the right of any American citizen when he contested the elec- tion, and by a legal techuieality, that the judges had no right to throw out these votes, he was given the office. But that dies not obviate the fact that Mr. Dickerson was rightfully elected to the office of city marshal. Bvt that has nothing todo wifh the charges made by the Record and it must cal! the names of city and county officers and show wherein any malfeasance has been committed. An anxious public is awaiting an answer pure and simple. Let us have the names of any such and the Tiwes will join hands in con demning and bringing them to jus- tice. Speak out or stand branded as aforesaid. W. H. Meap, Sec’y. The latest trick of the Chinese is to come to this country from British America disguised as Indian squaws.

C., Feb. 7.—Ser ator Cockrell’s speech on claim agents and the circumlocution cf office to-day was one of the events of the session. He was listened to bya crowded senate, and republi- cans and democrats nodded approv- ‘al. Brother Jonathan, as Senater Cockrell is pleasantly called by his senatorial associates, made an ex cellent speech. He denounced the claim agents with splendid Missouri vigor, but showed that the conduct bf the government in dealing with its creditors is largely responsib e for the sharks, leeches and e¢laim agents who throng this city. lution was adopted, viz.: judicial, congressional aod sevatori ora delegate, from each of the dem At a meeting of the State Dem - cratic committee on January 14¢h, held in St. Louis, the following reso- That the chairman of the county, al committees, also the p:esidents, ocratic clubs of this state, be invited to attend a meeting to be held in this city, at 10 o'clock a. m., on Feb. 22d, at the small hall of the exposi- tion bui ding, for the purpose of dis- cussing matters of much importance to the democracy of Missouri.
