Col. Benton and HIS Appeal.

The Wing papers of Missouri, pretty generally,
have been neutrsl in the Benton and Jackson con.
troveTsy now waging in that State, and have ex.
pressed disposition to remain hands off in the
contest The 81. Louis New Era, an excel
lent Wing paper, dissents from the general opln.
ion, and gives, in our view of the matter, good
and sufficient reasons for its dissent We give
two or three extracts from the New Era 8 article
The issue presented by Col Benton in this con-
roveTsy is, rst opposition TO the extension Of any
more slave territory; secondly, opposition 10 Cal
houn and his Southern allies, the practical effect
OF whose principles would Inc vitality lead TO 9 dis
solution OF the Union; and thirdly, opposition 10 the
prime pies aycwed in the resolutions of instruc-
lion passed BY mere msiority of our last Lesisla-
ture.
From those instructions Col. Benton has ap-
pealed 10 the ph0le people Of The State Of Nilsson
II, whose assent or dissent he asks, that he may
coaduct himself accordingly "a one of the Senators
IN Congress from this State. II, then, there was
question of principle whatever involved in this
controversy the very fact tina: of our Senators
has asked of hIs constituents, without distinction
of party, their views as 10 certain great measures
10 come up for action at the next session, would,
Of itself, require at the hands Of the Wing press
free and candid expression of opinion. If this ex-
preston is not given, and Col. Benton should act
and vote in opposition 10 the views entertained by
our POutlcaI irlenos, WIN What pT0puety could
any OF US raise our voices sgains; hmi
Viewing the subject in this light, We have never
hesitsted in complying with the request of one Of
cur Senators by expressing ourselves, first, de-
cidedlv opposed 20 the extension OF slavery an
other inch under any circumstances whatever;
secondly, as being equally hostile against the sec
Iional and dsorganiZng policy OF Mr.. Calhoun and
all who approximate his views; and lastly, as
against the spirit and tone Of the resolutions of the
last Missouri Legislature, which We regard as de-
rogatOy TO the character Of the State, and at war
with The peace and pemanency of our Institutions.

Benton in opinion regards all these three prop
ositions, il by no means follows that we thereby
become partisan OF his, and are under any obi-
CATION 10 support him in any other measure, politi-
cal or local, that he may advocate or favor. .
There is but two sides 10 each proposition, right
and wrong. Ne half house can he or has been
constructed. And We do not believe, upon Teflec-
ton, that Wing paper in Missouri can be found
that will refuse 10 say 10 Col. Benton whether he
is right OF wrong in the course be is pursuing. We
believe him 10 be night, and 50 believing, bid him
God speed in his mission through the State.

SPRIskLIso STREETS WITH SALT WATKR.-The
experiment OF using brine of salt and water for
sPrinkling streets, had its origin in Syracuse, N
Y. If such practice could be made consistent
with the public purse, It's benefits are so obvious,
that it should be adopted. The Syracuse Star
says:
"The experiment of watering the streets with
salt water is working to a charm. Ithss two
fold effect First il renders the atmosphere some
what more pure, and destroys the effects OF the
decomposng matter thrown out. This alone ia a
great object gained; but in the second place, the
use OF the salt water lays the dust efectually, and
prevents il from being moved by the wind even
after the sun has evaporated the moisture. The
salt forms sort Of mortar Of the dust, and keeps
II in a compact form. This will be seen more
particularly by examining Willow street, through
which the teamsters nave been csrting gravel 10
