THE RAIN.-After one of the longest droughts
we ever remember TO have experienced, our good
ly city and vicinity is at length blessed with CO.
pious showers. We believe there has been no
rain in this neghborhood since the early part Of
August--of course vegetation Of every sort has
wlthered and blighted under September SUM-
We should be thankful that the rain has not
been withheld until the chief staples of the
farmer have been matured We have not heard,
but apprehend that Tobacco may have suffered,
particularly such as was planted late. We trust
the crop has sustained but little damage. Grains,
large and small, were well matured before the
drought begun. Vegetables have of course been
greatly checked and in many cases destroyed, by
the drought. Our fellow-citizens of Washing
ton have, perhaps, felt the Inconvenience more
than those of the country, for, in addition to the
evils of dear and scanty MARKET they have
borne the superadded burden of dusty streets.
New PUBLIcATIoNs.-W are indebted to Mr..
G. Brooke for the Blackwoods Magazine for Au-
gnst. This No. has several articles which can
not fail to interest even in these times of high po-
litical excitement. The first, entitled M. Louis
Blanc, is review of work upon French histo-
~ since the Revolution of lS3O-a period of
much intrinsic interest, apart from its present i'm
portance. There is an article entitled Night
upon the banks Of the Tennessee; it will, of
course, be read with zest as pertaining to our
country and one Of its noblest rivers. A poem
upon the Execution of the Marquis of Montrose.
The Natural History of Man. Marston; or, the
Memoirs of Statesman, part XIII. With
other pieces.
We are likewise indebted to Mr.. Brooke for
the October No. of the Columbian Ladies and
Genteman's Magazine. The embellishments are
unusually fine, and the typographical execution
very superior. The No. contains the usual va
riety of tales, poems, &c. Also, the Mirror
Monthly Library for October, embelished with
fine likeness Of Byron and No of the Wander
ing Jew-Harpers' edition.

DAHLoNEGA. June l0, 1874.

Mr. McDuffic has exposed the inconsis'
tency OF Mr.. Bentou, in relation TO the
annexation Of Texas, in one particular !;
but bis sefcontradiction is almost nnlln:
lied. Thus in his letter to the Editors OF
the National In,elligencer of the 30lh
April, 1914, he says: "Our title 10 the
whole ofTexas had been vindicated by
Mr.. Adams, who showed that the French
under whom we claimed had established
themselves under La Sale, at the Bay of
ST. Bernard, the oldest settlement in the
province, upmards Of thirty gears before
the Spaniards crcsSedtte Rio Del. Norte."
In his late speech, delivered by him in the
Senate, he says. The real Texas which
we acquired by the treaty of 1903, and
flung away by the treaty Of 1919, never
approached The Rio Grande Trio del
Norte,) except near its mouth, while the
whole upper part was settled by Ihe Span
iards and great part of it in the year 1894
Just one hundred hears be- fore La Sale
first sao Teras." In his letter the French
under La Sale had established themselves
in Texas thirty gears before The Spaniards
6DeT SQlC LRe mo det LNOTCS' LII nis SpoeCh
the whole upper part of the same river on
both banks. was settled by The Spauiards
one hundred gears before La Sale first sao
Texas.
This is not the only contradiction. Mr..
Benton affirms in his letter of the Both
April, 1914. Before the establishment
ofthis boundary (the boundary of 1879 all
the country to the west of the lower Mis-
sissippi, quite to the Rio del N1rte was
ours" Here Mr.. Benton does moi distin
guish between old Texas aud new Texas
between The Province aud the Republic Of
Texas. He goes for Texas to the Rio del
Norte In ITS achole ertent. Yet we find in
his late speech "lbat,t real Texas which
we acquired by the treaty of 1903, and
flung away by The treaty Of 1919, never
approached the Rio Grande excep, near
its MONTH" Wha, is to be though, OF
Statesman thus inconsistent with himself?
What value can be attached to his opinion.
