" Straws show which way the Wind
Blows"

We are aware that this saying is not al
all remarkable Tor its novelty, nevertheless
its antiquity affords very satisfactory evil
dence of its value. We may reguard it,,
therefore, IA" "a fixed fact" that staws do
show which way the wind blows. 1t is
equally evident to our mind that Colonel
Benton intends to run for the Presidency
in 1852 " on his own hook" and in defiance
of the nomination of another candidate
for the Democratic national convention,
hereafter to assemble. The straws which
show that the wind blows in this direction,
are certain editorials of the New York
Ercning Past and the ST. Louis Union
shadowing forth very distinctly the posi-
ton tina, all conventions to nominate can
dida,es are mere humbugs and frauds upon
the people, and a.e entitled to no respect.
A new light has recently broken in upon
the minds of the editor, of these two pa
pers, which has Illuminated them in an eX.
traordinary manner. They now perceive
" as clear as mud,' that the long establish
ed usage of the Democratic party, in cal
ling conventions TO nominate candidates,
j., and always has been, a miserable cheat
and swindlc by which the popular voice
has been stiiled and the right Of suffrage
deiraudcd. II this be so, of course these
conscientious gentlemen are lound in com.
mon honesty 10 oppose the calling ol a con-
vcntion and to resist is nominee, it he is
not entirely acceptable to them. 1t is
well known that Colonel Benton i the ia.
vorite OF these two papers for the presi.
dency, and it is quite as certain that he is
-, lyl,,
ton of Il Democratic National Conven-
ton. That honor is beyond doubt in re.
serve for Gen. Cass. 1t results, therefore
that Col. Benton will be ruled off the track
unless he rcpudates in advance the author:
itv of the convention. But as he dcos no,
intend To be ruled off, he deems it neccs sa
~ 10 let 1t he III rs TODD ,hds tar in adj.
vance, that he will submit his preien,on
to no convention and it any such body
should take the liberty To Nominate alu,a
CT candidate, he will "arpeal TO the reo

Bridge between England and France

The British Academy OF Science has II,
present under consideration a plan of a
most extraordinary character, being Meth.
err more nor less than a suspension bridge
between France and England. NJ. Ferdi.
nand Lemaitra proposes to establish an
,prostatic bridge between Calais urd Do.
yer. For this purpose he would construct
strong abutments. TO which the platform
would he attached. At distance of 100
yards from the coast, and at distances OF
every one hundred yards across the chan
mel, he would sink four barges, he Willy Ia
den, to which would be fixed heavy iron
Chain Of peculiar construction. A formi.
dable apparatus of balloons, of an eliptical
form, and firmly secured, wonld support in
the air the extremiiies of these chains which
would be strongly fastened to the abu,.
ments on the shore by other chains. Each
section of 100 yards will cost about E300
900, which would make 81 millions for the
whole distance across. These chains, sup
ported in the air at stated distances, would
become the point of support for this fairy
bridge, on which the inventor proposes tc
establish an atmosphric railway. The pro
ject has been developed in great length by
the inventor,

the Pacific Railroad Company TO build the

authorizes them to build branches in any

Probably this Company would build the
