General Davidson, who has, for some time past, been in command of the St. Louie district, has been ordored to the field to take command of the army in Southeast Missouri. General Carr takes his place in the St. Louis district. The command of the army in Southeast Missouri is an important one, and, from what we can learn, General Davidson is fully competent to fill the position.

We hope he will put the rebels through in this part of the moral vineyard. made more henious by imsfe JQ.O Magistrate who ismoulnsi wrong done in a neutnl put I kihdha C058ERTATIIK. We bear much said these dJ abpnt conservatism. It is a good term and properly understood, represents good ideas. Its application, however, to the measures, opinionpjsnd events of the present day, is not always appropriate.

Conservatism in politics is eommendible, conservatism in loyalty is (reason. When a citizen of the United States, owing allegiance to the Government in time of civil war, engages in a continual and indiscriminate system of denunciation of his own government, and all the measures adopted to prosecute the war, he calls it conservatism and himself a conservative or Union Democrat. This is a misapplication of the term. The term traitor is more appropriate to bis cue. In the Border States we have a clue of men such we hare described.

When the rebellion first commenced, they were prominent actors in our publio meetings. They talked much about co-operation, the unity of interest, sentiment and institutions of all the slave States. It wu a favorito idea with them that if Virginia, North Carolina aud Tenneuee followed the Cotton States out of the Union, that Miuouri, Kentucky and Maryland must go witlj them and fbare a common destiny. At a later period in Missouri, when the convention of the people had decided against secession they were found in secession meetings am conclaves, bolding secret council with the rebels, raising secession flags anddis coursing eloquently about Black Re publicans, Abolitionists and violations the Constitution by the Lincolnitcs. In course of time they were put down by force and coercion, by Federal muskets and bayonets.

All at once they have be' come conservatives and Union Democrats. Old Know Nothings that never voted the Democratic ticket in their lives, and never bad a Democratic instinct have become the best of Democrats how Union Democrats. No longer sble to csrry out thieir schemes by physical force, at lut subdued to( an obedieuco to authority they defied long as they could, they now hope, under false pretexts snd false titles, to creep into high places where, by stealth, they can inflict the murderous subs they dare not openly make. Of such are the conservatives of this day. Let any man take the poll books of the recent elections of this State in the country districts, and, our word for it, he will find evny rebel and traitor in the Elate voting what is called the Conservative or Union Democratic ticket; not because they are conservatives or Union Democrats, but because they are rebels, and desire, above all things, to break down the straight forward unconditional Union men.

This latter dus are to traitors what Mordecai, the Jew, wu to the wicked Ilaman. We are Sony to say that this elau of conservatives have received too much consideration, and too many special favors and protections at the hands of some of our publio functionaries. Jut on the eve of the election, they were specially invited to go to tho polls, and swear and carry the elutions if they could. Ex-penance hu taught us the value of a secessionists oath. The Enrolled Militia were directed to protect them in this State, and in some instances their favor- Ths Counties of St.

Genevieve, St. Tran oois and Madison and their Representatives. St. Genevieve county has elected to the Legislature, David C. Tuttle, the man who made the first open secession speech over made in Southeast Missouri.

It wu delivered, in Perryville in. April 1801, in reply to a Union speech delivered by lion. John W. Noell. In that speech Mr.

Tnttle denounced the government of the United States for sending the Star of the West to the relief of Fort Sumter, declared that the interests and institutions of this State, demanded that she should go with the South, abused the President of the United Statu in the most unscrupulous manner, and declared that the but thing to be done, and what ho would do if he had his way would be to go to Woobington and take Old Abe out and hang him. St. Francois county has elected Jeremiah P. Smith, a strong secessionist, who wu one of ths party that went to Do Soto in the spring of 1861, undev arms (he being armed with a double barrelled shot gun) to assist in raising a rebel flag, and wu one of the number who skedaddled from there, when a company 'of United StaMh tfbofiscamedownVpoh them. David Rhodes, of Madison county, wu ono of Giaib Jacksons traitor Legislature, a well known seceuioniat, who voted for all the treasonable acts and resolves of that notorious legislative body.

These three men have bun returned to the Legislature, under the late Conservative Democratic organisation, by a people who will, if uked, say they are loyal. Of such thus is composed the conservatives of to-day. It is no wonder that then counties gave Gen. Noell no votes of any consequence. In case the United States troops should pus through these coantiu, we advise the Provisional Government to order out the Militia for the protection of them loyal people.

A Child Scalped to Death. We art informed that the youngest child of Mr. James Kennedy, residing near Fred-eriektown, in Madison county, was recently scalded to death. While its mother was busy at washing, the little child went to a boiler of boiling water and ao-eidantly fell into it, scalding it so badly tatjt died in assort tinsf pfjere or-riblo accident took place. Parents should ho very cueful of their little ones, and always keep them entirely away from all inch dangers.

A Man Stabded. On last Thusday Written to the Psnyvllls Cairn. i Jackson, Mo. Nov. 14, 1862.

Mr. Editor Having seen year issue of to-day in camp, in the hands of ono of the soldiers who wu reading a-loud a piece, headed the election to crowd of esger listeners, who were all anxious to know the result of the elution, and as I watched them their brows would lower and their teeth clinched together with the thought that there wu any possible chance for them to be re presented in the next Congress by secessionist, and curses both load aud deep were uttered sgaiust thou men who are permitted to stay at home and hare their property protected by Union soldiers- men who scouts nigbt and day to keep thieving bands of rebels out of ths country, and risking their lives for mu who are doing all they can to pot rebels in office. They have showed their untimenta in the recent elutions, and it will be a damning proof against them herufur. They never need exput either support nr sympathy from the soldier, who is fighting for his country, and we judge men by the company they keep, so we judge John G. Scott by tho vote that hu bun polled for him, and I donbt not that he like a great many of bis supporters, would be in the rebol army at this present time if they had the uurage, but lacking that uurage they stay at home andswal low oaths like whisky punches, and en roll themselves in the Militia of the State, and according to orders, they mut turn out on elution day to protect voters to protect their brother secessionist, so that they can come out of their hiding placu in the woods, where they have bun hidden for the lut six months from the Union soldiers, with the exception of when they would be out on a bushwhacking expedition to kill a Union man or two, even if they had to shoot him at his work in the field, if be wu a loyal man, it wu enough, he mut die.

Then arq the sort of men that the Mitifia protested at ilfe'pbini, that they could give their votes for John G. Butt, their champion for Congress, a man who would take no part with the loyal men of Wuhington county, in celebrating the anniversary of American Independence on the Fourth of July, 1862. Heuuld not bear the sight of the stars and stripes being run np and flung to tho breexe, but there is no doubt if it had been the stars and bars iuteud of our gloriou banner, he would have waved his hat and cheered as loud as any person, and would hare had some pretty little epeuh prepared for the occuion, in which be would have congratulated his dear friends on the glorious change that had taken place in tho country. According to the programme the secessionists had for elution day, it sums that that the noted horse thief and guerrilla William Jeffries was to have taken a conspicuous part in the proceedings of the day, as he wu to send force enough to Dullu and to several other precincts to keep the Union men from voting, and at the same time to have many of his men to poll votes for Scott as he possibly could, but he failed to fill the hill, by reason of spies that some of the 8cott men had placed at Fatterson to watch onr movements, coming and reporting to him that tho Twelfth Regiment wu marching towards Dallas, which news spoiled hi voting scheme and set him to skedaddling to his den in tho swamps in true Southern style. As well as he wished Scott be wished himself a little better, aud ha knew that if he ever fell into the hands of the boys of the Twelfth Regiment, that his passport was written and signed, however, soma of his men were net as fortunate himself, we occasionally sand one to Pocahontu, the direct route.

We soldiers Earnestly hope that Hon. Jehu W. Noell will be eur Raprooente-tativa in Congress from the Third Gen-greseional District of this Slate, snd It will be source of greet satisfaction to us to know that he is pi seed there by the unconditional Union men of this district a man who hu stood by eur side thro this rebellion, and who wu never known to falter in hie countrys eaua who has shouldered his musket to drive the rebel b- and murderers out of Frauds Upon thsOnum A New York paper says: eighteen months thsM tern of freudagainstlUlW1; bun going on in this dtplji forged bills on the mont in White street The facta are, thstBdeiC1 broker, hu been is thsitf WfJ ehaaing bills en the tales iV, merit in this city, fdthsliflilN? one-fourth their Parties have bsst emflncA lu SSiv np contractors whohmrissMt''aDg and some of tho latter bills for subsisting 4ei' when they had nalljPpgmaai one hundred.

There will be, perhaps, some trouble in getting this position filled, as Governor Gamble seems to be quite particular who should bold this position, and it is but right ha should be. We hope some good man may be appointed, and no other person should receive it bat such. The sp' pointmonta already made by the Governor ara excellent.

The rebel Emanuel Grounds, accompanied by some fourteen or fifteen other rebels, belonging to his thieving gang, attacked tho residenn of Captain Johnson, residing ic Bollinger county, this State. This occurred some time ut week.

Whon the rebels attacked the louse Captain Johnson made his appearance at the door with his pistol, whereupon tho rebel chief Grounds shot at him ut, fortune would have it, missed lim, when the heroic Johnson leveled his revolver on him and shot him through tho heart, killing him instantly. Another ono of the gang wu shot at bv Captain Johnson, Lut staggered away and made his escape, henu we do not know how badly ho wu hurt. The remained of the hell honnds or guerrilla thievu took to their heels and a track a bee-line for the adjacent wooifs, leaving behind them five horses and one mule, with a large quantity of blankets and quilts they had but recently stolen in the immediate neighborhood, also a horse stolen from Judge Conrad. Captain Johnson unquestionably descrvis great credit for this bold, daring, Christian and human act, and certainly merits promotion. If we had many such men as Johnson in this part of the the rebels snd guerrilla bands would soon become scarce, they would be compelled to beat a huty retreat for more healthy and congenial climes.

We say three cheers for Captain Johnson apd his cour-age. The Union men of Southeast Missouri especially have bad a hard burden to bear. They wero overpowered and overturi in the first instance ly the rebel hordes, they and their familiu were driven like cattle fiom their peaceful homes, or murdered in cold blood upon their own hearth stones. At lut the strong arm of tho Federal Government overpowers their enemiu, and onu pore the faithful and loyal citiaen raiau his head and begin to hope. But, alu how fluting the hope.

In the nut moment he is told that his wicked and damnable persocu-tors are still to rule the land, under the name and stylo of Conservatives and Uxion. Democrats. Loyalty becomes proscribed and treuon brings a premium. The loyal men of Miuouri will appeal to the Federal government onu more to ut down treason in this State, whether that treason be open or covert. They will not be rated by rebels, if then is any escape for them.
