The German papers of Missouri very generally come out in favor of free labor in that State, as likely to advance its prosperity. The Anzeiger declare? that the question 4 'cannot be to much discussed," and that "the Emancipation party in Saint Louis is already stronger "than the Benton party ever was." The same paper declares that, notwithstanding the movement was so sudden, it has gained many unexpected friends and supporteis in the ranks of the National Democracy. The Anzeiger adds; "It is certain that Saint Louis, and probably a few other counties, ara ripe for this agitation, and that any movement on the part of the borderers in Western Missouri to interfere again in the affairs of Kansas, will certainly be the signal for the question of emancipation in Missouri." The Volksblatt also ccupies much the same ground. Steamer for Kansas.
