Mr. Benton is the very genius Of the west.
All his political thoughts and aspirations
begin and end with the State Of the upper
Mississippi. His mission seems to be, and
he acts as il he felt it, to lead these States
to that prominent position on the stage Of
the republic, TO which they are SO rapidly
making their way. Filled with the most
dazzling visions Of the destiny Of the west,
he is anxious to make his own state (Mis-

become to The rest Of the confederacy.
