| WASHINGTON, May 20.
| To-day Mr.. Soule of Louisiana, French gentle
man by extraction, made eloquent and powerful
speech in opposition to the compromise. Mr.. Clay
in replying took occasion after noticing or two
of bis positions to show his whole hand, came out
openly against Gen. Taylor. His speech was terri
hc in its excitement lie called loudly upon any
friend of the President to meet him face to face, he
stamped his foot upon the floor with the most violent
emphasis, he dared them to the combat against his
compromise.
His face was turned towards Mr.. Webster, who
sat not far from him. during the whole speech whe-
Their he anticipated that Senator's support of the ad
mnistration, from his speech upon the Cuban bust
ness, during the morning hour, cannot conjecture
at any rate he appeared much excited
His speech was a powerful one, and well suited to
meet the encounter which the compromise is likely
to meet on the Northern side of the chamber
l confess | am unable to tell what is likely to be
the result in the Senate; every appliance is brought
to bear but as a whole it seems impossible that it
should pass.
Col. BENTON. Judge Walker being about to
take charge of Democratic paper in St. Louis,
wrote to Col Benton correcting a statement in the
St. Louis Republican that it to be an anthem
ton paper. He says in his letter to Mr. Benton:-
"There are points (not, however, of very car
dinal character,) upon which may differ from you,
but there Is nothing at present in your course which
would justify me in Withholding that respect which
have heretofore extended to the views and course
pursued by YOU
The reply of Col Benton is characteristic. He
judges the paper to be revival of Shadrach Penn S
old Reporter, which itself the successor to all
the Calhoun papers which had successfully sprouted
up and roted down in St Louis during thirty years
past 'If your paper" says Mr. Benton, ''is TO be
one of that family, twill share the fate of its ante
cessors, and rot down alse. The following extract
from the letter is full of significance:
The time has gone by for holiday professions in
favor of the Union. The time has come for works
and the paper which does not work against the disu-
noniss is for them Thus far the infamy of the dis
union movement rests principally upon the Demo
cratic papers, from the conduct of some, which have
been leaders in the patty-(the Washington City
Union and the Richmond Enquirer, for example)-
aud have no communion with such papers

The Disaster in Massachusetts,

1t appears that the union of discord in Mas =
sachuse'is, for the purpose OF defeating the
Wigs has given that old Commonwealth to
the enemy. The Boston Atlas, of yesterday,
in long, good tempered and able article, con-
siders this "Defeat," and, in our judgment,
conclnsiyely accounts for il. We give below
extracts it that are entitled to he read and
thought Of They present facts that can me-
ther be denied nor avoided. They fairly, clear
ly, and without ill-bood. expose the attempt
that has recently been made, not only in Mas
sachusetts, but in New York, to remodel and
amend the principles of the Wing party, by
means Of the imprudcnt and impudent ma
ehinery Of " National" and "Union" meetings
in Castle Garden. and elsewhere, and they COZ
recly impute the defeat os the Wing party tc
the operation OF this machinery. We shall have
our word to say, in due season, of the operation
Of those Northernsrs who arrogate to them
selves the exclusive tile of National tanc
fUnion" politicians. Tho claim is HW
more preposterous and nsoen, than that of til,

more remarks upon the extension of the Rutland
Railroad through Grand Isle County. That this
County was expressly laid out tor Railroad" 10
one who is acquainted with it can doubt. The dis
distance from Burlington TO Rouse's Point, via Col
chester Point through this County, cannot be fan
from forty miles. THE route pould be almost per-
JecHy straight and leeei the whole distance. The
distance from Colchester Point to the Island, would
be between two and three miles. The depth of the
water, py the Lake now is, about six feet and u
half nearly the whole distance the bottom very near
level. II stone needed, the small Islands near
on the South w6st shore of South Hero, furnish an

These quarrles would be about a mile from the route
which the road would probably take,

beauty and variety OF scenery where could there be
more desirable route for rail road Add to this

| The RECEPTION OF GEORGE THOMPSON
The meeting at Fanueil Hall last evening, was
an anomalous one. II was called for the pur-
pose Of hearing Mr.. George Thompson speak (;
but the audience were not willing to listen to
him. There was no actual outbreak, but
there was such a general noise kept up, by
cheers, oucrles and the aside movements of
public meeting, that no speaker could be heard
from the rostrum. Mr.. Francis jackson called
the meeting TO order, and Mr.. Edmund Quincy
was appointed Chairman. Mr.. Quincy, Mr.
Parker, Mr. Douglass, Ia colored NAM and Mr.
Thompson all attempted to speak, but silence
could not be obtained. There seemed 10 be
disposition not to listen, but determnati on
not to quarrel and at about half past nine the
meeting broke up rather than adjourned. The
hall was crowded from the beginning to the
end of the evnning. Boston ADJ. Of the 9Th.
