Col. Benton and tho Next Presidency.

Col. Benton and tho Next gresideacy
Some weeks ago we took occasion to re-
flute statement in the Missouri Republic
can, 10 the effect that Col. Benton had con-
scented, and his friends were preparing to
put him forward for President in 1856, and
now, for the second time-since the 'news''
has been re-published in the anti-Benton
notification press-prononnce it false, and
without foundation in truth.
We were well aware Of the object in
view by the prosecutors Of Col. Benton in
thus connecting his name at this time with
the Presidency in 1856. II is to diver,
public attention from the true Issue before
the people of Missouri, between COL BEN
ton and his traducers, and 10 create jeal-
ously in the minds Of other prominent aspl-
rants for that exalted station against Col!
Benton. Bot it will avail! nothing, nor will

Perkins, Of Salem, Mass, many years since,
states that i, las been found entirely cAcotual
in some recent eases:
"Saturato any quantity OF the best vinegar
with common silt; TO one large tables oonfu
Of this solution add rou: times the quantity Of
boiling waller; lot the patient take Of this
preparation, as hot as il can be swallowed,
one teaspoonful once every half minute nm
Ill the whole is drank; this for an adult,
The quantity may be varied according TO the
age, size, and constitution Of TIE patient.
II Necessary, repeat the dose in six or eight
hours. Carefully avoid keeping this prep
aration in vessels par.aking Of the qualities
of lead or copper. The success Of the re-
medy depends much on preparing and CIV
ing the dose as above directed. In order 10
keep the preparation hot it would be well
to place the cupwhich contains It in bowl
containing boiling water, otherwise it will
cool before being taken.

MeSSrS. HcDOnaId and Cobb,

The following article, from the Savannah Geor-
gan, will be read with interest by our democratic
friends. 1t dissipates one of those false rumors
on which the disaffected leaders are seeking to
sow dissensions in our party, and to encourage a
spirit of opposition to the administration:
'MEssRs. MCDONALD AND CoBB.-The tele-
graph has disseminated throughout the country,
from Washington, statement that Gov. McDon-
aid was some time since an applicant to Gov.
Cobb for appointment to vacant judgeship;
but failing to receive it, he turns round and be-
comes a candidate for the Senate, in opposition to
Gov. Cobb, and beats him in the democratic
caucus.
GAS regards so much of this story as relates to
the judgeship, it is doubles to every one
else in Georgia as to ourselves. We are confident
that it is purely fictitious. The fact doubtless is
that neither Mcdonald nor Cobb became candi-
date for the senatorship from any fe ling of op-
position to the other. Each regarded the office as
glittering prize, per Sc, well worth contendng
for; consequently each determined to secure it,
if he could without reference to the claims or as
pirations of the other Personally, their relations
are friendly towards each other. And we have
understood, upon what we deemed good authori
ty, that upon McDonald's receiving the caucus
nomination Cobb's advice to his friends was tc
vote for him.
