Public Sentiment In Missouri.

We have watched with deep interest the discussions 10
Missouri growing out OF the divisions in the democratic
ranks produced by the course OF the Hon. Thomas H.
Benton who seems to insist still on introducing tests
which are mpracicable and unsatisfactory TO the gea,
body OF his old supporters. The subloned account,
however OF meeting in Monroe county, in that State,
which we copy from the ST Louis Times, induces us TO
hope that the people will permit no minor questions TO
postpone the union OF the party any longer. We have
spoken but in terms OF kindness and respect for
Mr.. Benton. knowing as we do how much the demo.
cratic party indebted to him for the success OF General
Jackson in his evenful administration. But this does
not shut our eyes 10 the fact that his recent position has
had an unfortunate influence the ability OF the demo.
cratic party the ground IT los, by The election OF
General Taylor; and we trust that he will yet redeem
himself from the suspicion that he is willing on personal
grounds to endange the success OF the efforts making
to bring back the federal government the old doctrines

spite of his very extensive law practice and his other
muifarous and exacng engagements, he Is constant

have heard il stated good authority that he has made
within few years past, new translation OF Thucdides,
