GETTING AT IT

The Columbia Globe" and democrat"
have been engaged in controversy for
several weeks. The subject Of Col. Ben
tons views relative to slavery was raised
by the "Globe," in the following direct
question: Does the Democrat endorse
Col. Benton's views on the subject of slave
ryl 1t ,cont do to dodge the question:"
The democrat" replies (not lodging
the question, Of course) as follows: "The
Globe wants to know if we sustain Col.
Benton's sentiments on the subject Of
slavery? We reply, by asking the Globe
what are Col. Benton's sentiments on the
subject of slavery"
The "Globe" being put in the "dodging"
position by the democrats" yankeesm
i'll naturally asks for an armstice, as fol-
lows: "The Democrat asks, what are
Col Benton's sentiments on the slavery
question: If he is ignorant of that gen.
tleman's position on that subject, it is Ger.
tainly high time that he should inform him
self; for no politician in the State, or
throughout the Union, and certainly no ed
itor, can be competent creditably to acquit
himself if not aware of the opinions of
distinguished living statesmen upon great
and important topics of public concern
If, however, he knows that gentleman's po-
silion, and has read his expressed opinions,
i. would be work of supererogation for
us to re-s,ate them"
But the Democrat" having gotten the
"Globe" on the stand, is rather determined
to have an answer 10 the question il
couldn't answer as will be seen by the fol-
lowing. taken from its last replication to
the "Globe:' but why does the Globe,
after having the SANDER it published on
Col. Benton exposed, continue to present
new items of dctraciion against that grca,
statesman 1t alleged some charge agains,
him on the subject of slavery, and we
called upon it TO define it specifically; bu,
it cannot, and dare not do it,"
The Globe" can hardly stand that dare
and we have feint hopes of being able to
learn Col. Benton's views on the subiecl
of slavery, yet.

LETTER FROM THE HON. JAMES
BUCHANAN ON THE WILNOT
DDnNICn


The Secretary of State has written let.
ter on the slavery question, which we copy.
1t is in favor OF opening to the introduction
of slavery all territories which the Union
may acquire south of 36i degrees, north
latitude /; in other words, OF extending the
Missouri compromise. which was so signal,
" disregarded in the acquisition of Texas,
10 the domain which may yet be ceded to
US by Mexico. Mr.. Buchanan has thrown
himself into the arms Of the south, and il he
should hereafter be talked o! as a candidate
for the Presidency, the south will have no
difficulty in supporting him.

The TREATY OF PEACE-The Wash.
ington Union of the 18th inst, in referring
to the present state of affairs in Mexico,
says: I'VE agree thoroughly with the New
York Courier, that whatever is to be done
henceforward' in the conduct of the war,
should be done with energy and effect.'-
We agree with it, also, that little reliance
can be placed upon Mexican assurances at
such crisis as Gen. Scott has brought
them to; that if Santa Anna has now offer
ed to negotiate, it is partly with the intent
of giving time to withdraw his forces and
remove his government TO some other part
of the Mexican territory and that ii
General Scott suffers him to do this, or in
any way to elude his grasp, he will do less
than his duty. If the government is re,
moved, the British minister is pledged and
instructed to follow 1.-THE Americans will
find the capital barren compassionate a
new campaign will lie before them. II
Santa Anna should be permitted to leave
Mexico with his troops, how long would
it take him, Judging from the past, to make
his appearance at Saltillo, and menace
again the valley of the Rio Grande' This
is contingency which is certainly not i'm
possible, and which, in prudence, should be
provided for We cannot, however, sus-
pect that Gen. Scott will fall into this eyre.
gious blunder. He knows the Mexican
character better than we do-their coming
devices and fair promises-their diatory
and decep,ious pretences; and we there fore
take it for granted, that he will not permit
their troops to slip through his fingers, or
the truce to be prolonged beyond the short.
est possible period.

YucATAN.--The Union has papers from
Yucatan to the 18th August, giving ac-
counts of the horrible massacre on the 3Oth

murdered old men and children, ssparing
only the women for lascivious purposes.
Six of the chiefs were taken prisoners

Tepich, and the village was destroyed.
