Reception of the Veto in Missouri.—The Message of Gen. Jackson vetoing the U. S. Bank, was received at St. Louis, Missouri, on the 22d ult. and excited the highest disapprobation of both parties. The St. Louis Beacon, a strong Jackson paper, says—"Having expressed our opinion in favor of re-chartering that valuable institution, we regret to say, that the Veto Message gives us no reason to change that opinion." A portion of the Jackson and Benton men held a meeting, and, adopted resolutions approving of the Veto.

Another very large meeting, was also held, without party distinction, at which resolutions were adopted disapproving of the Veto, and calling upon the People to withhold their suffrages from those candidates for the Legislature who are known to sustain the principles thus avowed by the President.—Baltimore Patriot.
