From the signs of the times, ispsosabls

a question of deep and exciting interest.
1t has long been the desire Of . large
portion of the people to see q wise and ju-
dicious graduation system become the Law
of the land, believing that individual and
prosperity would be equally sd-
vanced, by giving a home to the poor and
settling up the country with happy and &C.

this source, is small and the machinery IN
~tricate and expensive, and we doubt not but
that the proportion to give 70 every citizen

Il Q ~auf6cient number Of negroes and mulat.
toes Aad got there (end there may be by
afis tine, 20 make any show in elections,
tAAt they would not have insisted on their
rights under the 10th section; and would not
every sworn and Law abiding officer Of cleo.
lions have been bound to grant these rights?
If you do not believe this fact, you have the
consolation Of being solitary and alone, for
every body else would say that if carried
oft and administered in good faith, and not
by mob. law, that it would produce that
result. Benton and Hale at the time they
gave the vote knew that it would be the
natural result for the free nergoes and mu-
iattoes to claim their rights under the 10th
section; and their very object was to place
free negroes and white men upon the same
level, it could not nave been otherwise, for
every thing was before them, and they could
not be mistaken as to the effect Of their vote.
Having the Oregon provisional law before
them, they cannot, dare not, plead ignor-
,ance. They knew that il. Congress had
continued this 10th section in force, that
every free negro with a drop Of white blood
iinihim, who had descended from a white
man, even through many generations, who
might emigTate there, after the passage Of
the 10th section mentioned, in six months
after that emigration, would, according to
that section, be as much entitled to vote
and hold Office, as any other person in the
territory. II
No wonder that Benton kicked, found
cred, reared and pitched, and made use Of
50 many round epithets against me-, when
he first saw the letter | wrote to General
Parsons, giving q partial view Of his vote,
compared with what ! give ncw, since
have obtained this 10th section. He knew
he was guilty of an outrageous act against
his constituents, which was about to be
brought to light, and he expected BY stating
that / had told a lie on him-had falsiied
the record, &c., (knowlng when he said
these things that he was safe as to his per-
son as he had placed himself outside the
pales ofpersonal responsibility, to stop any
further in vestigation on this vote; for that
Is his course, when guilty of a charge, to
abuse. villify and SANDER the person pre-
senting it, instead Of disproving it, except
when he is charged with crime; then his
dignity is Of. SO high an order it causes him
TO stand mute-keep dark; and say nothing
mote even the words mot guilty." Well,
this viii suffice for this vo,e, at present.
The reader can now see where the lie rests
he will see that I have told none, and a.
matter Of course, he will place it where
It belongs-on Benton's shoulders.
