Our reader will bear in mind that a t wo day' meeting under the control of the M. E. Church, South, commences THIS DAY at half past 1 0 o'clock, in the Court house. Several ministers from the South en their tray (o the Annual Conference, r eipected to be in attendance. 2JWe have been requested to give notice that Rev. Mr. BRADSHAW will preach in the Prevbyterian Church to-day nd to-morrow at the usual hours for di vine service. THE STATE CAPITOL, Tha "Herald of Iieligiou Liberty'- of the 3It August, speaks in thi wise of the manner in which the Capitol at Jeffer son City I kept. If thi picture be a true one and a writer in the last Metro politan, in allusion to this subject, does not deny it it is high lime that the guar dian of the Stale's interest should set a bout Applying a suitable remedy for such a disgraceful state of affairs. Will the next Legislature look into this matter? "There is one serious drawback, which does more to produce an unfavorable im pression upon the mind or visitor to wards Jefferson City, and the whole State, than five times the money necessary to remedy it, is worth. 1 hia is the exceed ing filthy condition of the State Capitol. The magnificent exterior of the building makes it in oljeol ol attraction to ev-ry one from a distance, who is merely pa ess ing along the river. But w hat is the dis appointment of the visitor to find w hen be ban entered the beautiful white walls, if not dead men's bones, certainly all man ner of lint-leanness. That the fillli of months and even year should be permit ted to accumulate without there being in dustry enough, if it w ere even for chari ty, to apply a brush in arrest of the dirt upon the floors, and cobweb on the walls, is a disgrace to the whole Siaie of Mis souri, and to the people of Jefferson in particular. There is a keeper, we were told, whose business it is. to take care of the building; it may not be specified in his contract that he shall keep it clean, but if be keptn stable for us a he keeps the State Capitol, he would soon be out of pur employ. The Mexican arms, also, drog' ged with so much toil from Mexico, by our volunteers, instead of being arranged in some part of the building where they could be seen but not handled, are so ex posed to visitors, that with the destructive propensity common toall Americans, there is reason to expect that all that is perish able about them will soon have disappeared." J5We have spent the first day or two of the present week in chasing down some of our patron who ought to have come to us and paid up, without putting us to this trouble. We don't like the necessi ty which compels us to publish an article more than once, but'we do it sometimes ; as for instance the election returns which will be found in our column again. We only want the people to become familiar with the position-of the two great parties iri our State. "Springfield Whig." e hare r etived the first No. of a new paper bear ing the above title, published at Spring field in thi Sfate, by Messrs. Fisher & Swartzot, and edited by out former fel low townsman, L. Hendrick, Esq. The Whig is really gotten up, and present an appearance very creditable to the mechan ical skill of the proprietor. The Whig of the South-west owe it to themselves to bestow upon these young gentlemen a liberal support, as Ihi i the only advo cate of their principle in all upper Mis souri, south of that stream, except those immediately on it. Therefore let them support it at it may deserve. Senatorial Vacancy. t believe it is pretty generally understood that a vacan cy ha occurred in thi Senatorial district, by the removal of Gen. Won Shield from the district. By reference to the "Can didute'a Department," in another column, it will be teen that SOLOMON J. LOWE, Esq., of Petti county, is a can nictate to till the vacancy. vte presume the Governor will be advised of the resig nation, and wilt issue writs of election in due time, to the , Sheriff' of the several counties composing the district. Mr. L. is personally known to many in thi coun ty, arid will doubtless take pleasure in ex tending his acquaintance with the voters cf the district. A special session' of the Circuit Court of the United States, is now sitting at Jefferson City, for the trial ' of Abel Armstrong, orW John Jones and' Joseph Smith, charged whh the murder of Jai, Baldwin on the Santa Fe trace on March, 1847.

The Jlreo Iris of the 5th inst., stales, that smuggling ha already commenced on various parts ot the coast and that it is impossible to prevent it for the want of gun boats, as a coast guard. The attention of the Government is ear nestly called to the want of some naval force.

They had obtained; a booty of $41,000, in sacking the town of Sabinas and Aldamas, Complaint was made to the commandant si Laredo, but he declar ed his inability to apprehend the robbers, and intended to lay a statement of the facts before the authorities at Bexar and Camar go.

We received this morning Galveston papers to the 22d in stant. The news of that date has the following items : Our city has been visited by one of the severest storms that has occurred here since the fall of '40. The wind continued to blow fresh from the east until the night of the 17th, when it increased to a perfect gale, sweeping down trees, sign boards and fences. The water from the bav rose to an unusual height, flooding the streets toa- bove the market. i eMerJay the wind changed to the south west, and moderated towards the afternoon the water mean while returning to its usual lev el. Many of the ornamental trees on the' streets'and in the gardens were torn up by the roots, and we learn that some brick chimneys- were blown down. The damage suffered vessels were in sight. Mr. Littledale's packet bore down to give her assistance, but the wind was blowing too hard to approach her. A boat was lowered from her, and seven teen persons were saved. The Brazilian frigate JJlphomo, com manded by the Marquis de Lis bon, on a pleasure excursion, and having on board the Prince de Joinville D'Aumale, and a large company, was also in sight. She also lowered her boats, and bv extraordinary exertions, sa ved one hundred and fifty of the luckless passengers & crew The Prince de Joinville is salt to have distinguished himself by his indefatigable and suc cessful efforts to succor the dis tressed. I'llty persons were also rescued by other vessels, but still the loss of life is ago nizing. The news from Ireland is of a meagre character. On the second trial of O' Dougherty, the jury could not a:rce Smith O'Brien, and the oth er leaders of the insurrection in Tipperary, were to be tried by a special commission. 1 he gram crops are, repre sented as beins below an ave rage.
