the National Flag and other tasteful devil
ces. 1t is necessary 10 say that every posi-
ton which afforded a view of the Process
sion as it passed, was occupied--from the
footway up TO the roof inclusive. The
ladies, of course, occupied the most favored
places, and such an assembage of bright
faces and beaming eyes was never before
exhibited, in our good city. Not only the
entire resident population, but the many
thousand strangers who had been drawn
hither by the interest of the occasion, were
concentrated along the single line of streets
designated for the route of the Procession
presenting a spectacle more imposing. grand
and cheering than has probably before been
witnessed in this country.

zeal, or sudden ft, Just broke out under new
moon but an old affair Of the head and lhe
heart, existing for quarter oi century, sub
ect to no change, and governed by no cacula-
on Besides other proofs OF friendship Tor
you, have lately, and on many occasions,
lone you the honor TO repuse the absurd Gals
jimmy that you would join the British! have
constantly repulsed this stupid calumny.--s
Born, as you are, Of republican fathers, who
threw off the British yoke-yourselves the
proud founders Of new repubic--l have con.
fded in your American republicanism, and con.
stantly viudica,ed you from the base allegation
that you would dishonor your origin and your
work by voluntarily returning TO British subs
jugation.
In my letter of the 30th ultimo, gave you
some reasons for the propriety Of my course
in wishing TO preserve the friendship OF Mex
leo, while anxious Tor your independence, and
Tor your return to our union. Among those
reasons was one which related 10 our CONS
merce, and especially to the Mexican trade
with New Orleans, and its rich returns in gold
and silver | then stated that this trade had
been almost lost TO us in consequence Of our
real or supposed aid and sympathy in the Tex.
ian revolution. A statement from the treas-
ury department, since received, enables me to
speak with precision of this loss. In the year
befjre the revolt, this import was near six
millions Of dollars-,o be precise, $5,870,726:
in the year 1912, it was less than one million!
dwindled down to the sum of $962,296. Tho
difference between these sums. or rather be-
tween the first named sum, and the annual
dwindIings, was heavy lOss for one city-and
that the emporium Of the great west-to suf-
fer on accoun. Of our supposed want Of neu-
trality in the contest between Mexico and Tex
as. For the last year, 1913, this trade had
somewhat revived, and rose to two millions Of
dollars; with proper care it may BIO carried
higher at all events, we should be careful not
to drive it away by breach with Mexico.
The whole import Of gold and silver from
Mexico TO all parts of the United States was
about eleven millions Of dollars at the COM
mencemert Of the Texian revolution. 1t d.
minished every where as at New Orleans; and
the whole import for 1913 was only fraction
over a million and quarter.
Please, gentlemen, TO consider this brief let-
ter as postscript 10 my letter Of the 3Oth ult.
and supplying some omissions Of that date.
Respectfully, gentlemen, your friend,
THOMAS II. BENTON.

on Tuesday next, the proceeds of which
are to be applied to benevolent purposes.
We advise the young men and old bache-

of Glasgow will have numerous articles
both ornamental and useful for their in
spection: and if this should fail to be the
case there will be nothing lost, as the ladies
themselves will be there, and if sight of
them don't pay expenses" we'll bind our
selves for the deficit.
