The following cheering and excellent letter was ad-

democratic members of the legislature for the firm and
unwaverng support given him in the late contest for the
responsible post OF United States senator Though be

WASHINGTON CRY, January 18th, 1919
DEAR duly received and thank you your kind
letter of the inst informing of the result of the cleo
ton for United States in State and that had
received the unanimous OF the democratic members
for THAI office &c.
So distinguished an honor alike unexpected and
haering. To have been the recipient of the unanimous
vote OF the democratic members OF both branches of the
legislature of my native State, every ballot for ele
vned and responsible position, will always regard
compliment and endorsement be remembered
with pride and pleasure My sole regret is that little
deserved, and can poorly repay, their kindness
The unanimy, discretion, and hrness with which the
democratic members Of our legislature acted during the
organization, the good feeling and conscious rectude
which pervade party generally, furnish sufficient evil
dence that the questionable trump of our political oppo-
nents, the elections will be temporary and that
our good old Commonwealth, which has heretofore
pied important position in this Conoderacy between
the dividing interests of the North and the South, will
shortly her place the ranks of that great national
party of principle having the constitution for text book,
upon whose success, firmly believe depend the stability,
prosperity and true glory of our country.
With the repetition OF my thanks, and the hope that your
session may be pleasant one subscribe myself ever,
truly your friend and fellow citizen,

COLONEL BENTON AND JOHN VAN BUREN.-We
have John Van Buren's solemn opinion in PRINT,
that although he fears that Col. Benton would not
vote for the Wilmot provso in the Senate, he pro-
missed that if the South resisted the law after its
passage, he would stand by the government. He
further deliberately says, that Col Benton is not
oemsgogae; on the contrary, he has always re-
garded him as an honest, true-hearted man, who
acts from conviction of right. Now, really, this
is very kind in Master John, and we are sure that
Col. Benton will consider himself highly honored
by this certificate of good character. We now
look for the Colonel to tickle John slightly, but
pleasantly, in the nbs, and afterwards, for genu-
inc Inflammation between them. Both may be
locking for nominations some time in 1S52-some-

authority, Of universal law gvers, controlling by
their writings the conduct Of rulers, and laying
down precepts for the government of mankind.
"No nation" he says, "can violate public lawwith-
out being subjected to the penal consequence of
reproach and disgrace, and without mourning the
hazard obpunishment, to be inflicted in solemn
and open war by the injured party" But the mo-
raj influence of the writers referred to, nor the
censures of the press, nor the principles of huma-
nifty or civilization, would have any influence on
the bloody. minded Haynau, or his conscience
crlmsoned associates in iniquity. What course,
then, have the civilized nations of Europe to pur-
sue, to stopthls ferocity and barbarism 1t would,
perhaps, be going too far to say that the law of
nations will justify them in declaring war against
Austria, as a punishment for disgracing that
code, and violating all principles of humanity, by
scourging women, and slaughtering without re-
gard to sex or rank, although, If no such power 10
given to them under that law, the necessity of the
case might justify its exercise. They can, how
ever, brand that nation-they can place black
mark on her ferehead-they can refuse to hold
any intercourse with her-they can deprive her
of the privilege of associating with the civilized
world. This they can do at all events, by with
drawing all their consular and diplomatic agents
In Austria, and thus cut her OIL as untitled, from her
barbarty and ferocity, from her disregard of all
laws human and divine, to hold communion with
the rest of the civilized world.
And now, what will the administration at Wash
ington do in this matter! In our opinion the
United States should be the first country to take
stand in favor of humanity, and to minister rebuke
to the Austrians for their barbarous treatment of
men, women, and chidren-their vlllanous
cruelty towards all persons, without regard to
rank or sex, in the Hungarian war 1t can be efiec-
tually done in two ways, why recognising
the independence of Hungary at once, and des-
patching accredited minister there soon as
possible, and by Withdrawing the consular and
diplomatic agents from Austria. Other nations
will soon follow our example, and Austria would
then receive the punishment which she SO justly
merits, by being made an outcast among the ma
tons of the earth
