 eifissouri Senatorial Election.-We learn s!iat Col. BuoKsER has been elected to a eeat in the U. 5. Senate, by thelegislature rs Missouri, in the place of MT. Burton, whose term of service will expire at the sle close of the present session of Con- .ress. There were only two candidates, tol. BUcKnEn and Gov. MILLER, both of s-fom were Jackson men. The vote upon eioint ballot, stood

 The friends Of IIr. Barton finding that siere was no hope of success for their fla y7rite, declined running him, and united II their strength with the friends of Col. ssuckner, as being perhaps a less promi- gent man than Gov. Miller, or as they shoose to term 1t, tho most liberal of the opposing candidates.

 It is very probable, that if the friends of 5Er. Clay in Missouri had continued Mr. Carton as their candidate, the choice Tronid have fallen upon Gov. Miller. ssDl- ride and conquer Is their motto. After tsndng it impossible for Barton to succeed they concentrated their forces upon a .sackson man whom they termed H5eral- split the Jackson ranks, and by this inesse, .sshepower ofniaking aselection was thrown snto their hands. The result of the eec-

  sion, however, Is complimentary to Gov. Hiller: 1t shows that majority of the sacfson partyls favorable to his preten- aloas, as It IS very evident, that however ligh Col. Buekner may stand in the State, . number of the Jackson members voted fer him from sectional feelings, he being com the southern part of the state, which aas never yet had the qualification of send seg a Senator to Congress.

 We are, however, more pleased than otherwise, at the result; Col. Buckncr is represented to be man of respectable -alents, and professes that he will be go- Terned by the will of his constituents. Mir. Barton has richly deserved his defeat: al- though man of talents, his political course las been contrary to the established pre- eedents of republican governments, where tits conceded byall that the representative of people is the mere organ of his con- sEitlaents; he by the violation of this prin- eiple, has struck at the root of liberal in- stitutions-his discontinue will, we hope, De lesson to his successors.

 Missouri has plainly told those whom sae may intrust with her confidence, that however splendid their requirements may He, sine will not suffer them to disobey her commands with impunity. This is as it should belt is rot the first time that this  patriotic state has discarded men of tal- ents, who have so s5ngularly construed such -ni'lriate zeal into their notions of acting independently.
