o. The great meeting Of States
Rights men and Democrats, that was
TO have taken place in Benton, turned
out TO be meeting Of the real dyed
in-the-wool Exppngmg Van Buren,
Democrats. These Loco-Focos, we
imagine will find it somewhat difficult
to humbug the NuIiifiers. They may
as well desist at once, their efforts are
fruilless.

tn.T We are amused at the desperate
shifts resorted to by the Loco-Focos
to convince themselves and others that
Mr.. CLAY is an abolltionlst. Listen "a
their logic. 1t isnow ascertained that
a large portion of the people Of Ken
lucky arc convinced, that the condi.
ton Of that State would be better, sur
roundedas it's by free States, if slave.
ry did not there exlst,--aud some Of
them regarding slavery among item
as an evil, wish and are determined to
eradicate it. Mr.. Clay lives in Ken.
tucky, ergo, he must be an abolition
list. Such are the premises, and such
the conclusions Since Mr.. Clay res
olulions and speeches IN the Senate on
this subject,-such are the straits to
to which his accuSDrs arc driven.
Never was there a more ride llouS
and unfounded charge since the foun-
datlon of the Government. And we
doubt not that the Locos themselves
will soon BECOME Disguised with its
repetition. One distinguished Van
Buren, Editor, in New Orleans, has al.

noble example.
