But his greatest peculiarly is his eye glass,
and the use which he makes of it. This
glass is his constant companion. 1t is Sis
pended by very small gold chain, and is
worn in the left side of his vest. He doub:-
less needs the aid of spectacles, and uses
this glass as a substitute. When he address
es the Senate he invariably holds his glass
in his right hand, and the documents before
him, at great distance from his eyes, and
speaks in very low and rapid manner. He
is very methodcal in the arrangement of his
papers, and is seldom at loss to find any
document he may desire. n y
He takes up his papers, one by one, as care
fully as though they were made OF the finest
threads of glass. despatches them carefully,
and lays them aside in the same manner
During the whole Of the excited session of
1910, we never saw Col. Benton depart from
this calm and unostentatious style of speak
ing but once, and then only for moment.-
In reply 10 some challenge from Mr.. Clay,
he one day exclaimed, "Let the Senator
from Kentucky come on sir! feel like
the old war horse, in his harness! am i'm
patient for the contestm
From what we have said, the reader must
not infer that Senator Benton, is always so
calm, and placid in his speech, that he is ne
yer eloquent. No-although he seldom
"splits the ears" with violent sounds, he
possesses the faculty of uttering sarcasms
which penetrate the very vitals of his oppo-
nents, and in print they cut like the lash of
scorpions. Thongh there is little of that
pomp and tinscl of the elocutionist in his
manner, there is great force and beauty in
his language, and some passages may be
found in his published speeches, which
would do honor 10 the best orators in the
Union.
Senator Benton in our opinion-leaving
his peculiar views entirely out of the ques-
tion-;s an extraordinary man, great poll.
tcan, and he exercises more powerful in
liuence over the destinies of this country,
than many people imagine. He is now, un-
doubtedly in tho foremost rank of Democrat
ic leaders, and stands the best chance of
being the great head of the party. We
shall not attempt to raise the veil in which
the future is enshrounded.

SKETCH OF SENATOR BENTON.

In looking over some files year or two old, WI
found the following sketch of THOMAS H. BENTON
copied from the Boston Daily Mail The sketch
we have reason to believe is correct portrait
and creditable as the production of an opponent
The great majority of newspaper readers,
we a'e confident, entertain very erroneous
ideas respecting Senator Bonlon-his per.
sonal appearance--his intellectual power
his manner of speaking and his political
standing. We well RENE mber with what an
ihcredulous feeling we first looked down up
on the Missouri Senator, when we were en-
gagged in the unenviable occupation of Ia
king notes upon the crown of hat. Is tha,
Col. Benton? thought we. Is that the great
humbugger?" The truth is he did not look
like humbugger a, all. There was nothing
of that coarseness and vulgariy in his man
ner, which we had been led to expect, by
never varying expressions of the newspaper
press, in relation 10 this man. Instead of
great, rough, red-faced braggadocia, we saw
a calm, handsome, polite gensleman-the ve-
ry beau ideal of great statesman. Instead
of rude raniing and violent denunciation, we
heard the mildest denuncaion, and mos
mellilluous flow of harmonious sounds
The newspapers have done the Senator
eat injustice. We state no more than
truth, when we say that Mr. Benton is an ell
egant specimen of a perfect gentleman, in
dress and manners. The common portraits
of him are very correct. Indeed his fea-
lures are so strongly marked, that it is hard
ly possible that an artist of toerable skill
could fail TO obtain good likeness. Even
in the most ordinary of the political carica-
lures, person who has ever seen the man
or has become at all familiar with his appear
ance, will discover the resemblance at once.
Mr.. Benton always dresses in that plain, but
elegant style, which is remarkable for moth
ing but lis simple elegance, and is the true
mark of gentleman.

Il IL the legislature a bill has been

Truly woman has her rights and'he is a

wishing you the joys of the season.
May you all live 10 see many happy new

L observe that YOU have before Com

Remuneration of Texas. This argues
want of unanimiiy in the Democracy up
on this great national and most irnpor-
tant subject. have just received from
Major Donelson, Il letter dated at Wash
ington, in Texas, from which | would in
fer, that if Congress expect TO annex
Texas 10 the United States, they must
act sPcepily, or it will be found to be be-
yond our grasp. The rejection of the
advances Of Texas has given offence TO
some, and a handle 10 others TO press the
liberal propositions Of England upon the
Texans, together with the splendid view
of Texas independent, growing into a
vast Republic, in timer 10 embrace not on

ed TO the guarantees of England Of her
Independence, and the loan OF large
sums for ten years, based upon a treaty
that English manufactures shall be free
Of duty, is gaining party in Texas
General Houston is still the leading star;
and his influence can alone be counted
upon TO resist the present influence of
England and lis increasing power. How
long this influence of England can be
successful withstood in Texas, is becom-
ing a very questionable matter. have
taken a view of the whole ground, Civ
ell TO all information lis due weight, and
say TO you that, unless Congress acts
upon this subject promptly. Texas will
be beyond our grasp, and lost 10 the Uni
led States forever, unless regained by
the-sword- What will be the situation
of our country, with British manufac-
lures introduced duty free into Texas?
Common, is unnecessary.
| hazard nothing i'll saying that, if the
present Congress do not act prom pity
upon the subject, the next will not have
the power. The consent of Texas can
not then be obtained. Great Britain will
haye laid the lions paw upon her, and
bound her by treaty.
l am exhausted; but, from Major Don
eison' S letter, and other sources of infor-
nation, the danger of losing Texas
seemed so imminent, that, although fee
BILE, could not forbear TO say this much
10 you, that you might Communicate it

"lha case of the Bank of Illinois

vides that there shall lie one Bank in
