Mr.. Rrnton,s sneeol,.

We publish, this morning, the first half of
Mr.. Benton's powerful speech against the Ne
braska Bill, and shall give the conclusion to-
morrow. In the midst of SO much weakness
and seryility, on the one hand, and bullying
selfshness on the other, as is displayed by a
great majority ofthe Legislators at Washington,
it is most gratifying to behold the strongest
man of the whole South, planting himself
squarely upon principle, and opposing that
infamous measure, because of its injustice, and
shattering, by his well aimed blows at the
monster inquiry, all the pretensions and soph-
istries by which its friends have sought to
commend it to the favor of the people.
By his mastery exposition of the horrid in
EQUITIES of this bill, by his severe but just re-
Dukes of the administration, for its usurpations
of prerogatiye and power, and by the crushing
blows that he has dealt to Douglas and his
fellow conspirators, Mr.. Benton has added to
the history of his thirty years experience in
the National Councils, its brightest page. The
speech cannot fail to exert powerful infu-
ence, not only upon members of Congress, but
upon the public mind, especially at the South,
and we commend it to the careful considera-
ton of our rulers. @

AN HONEST MANA worthy old deacon,
who had supplied one of the families in our
city with butter for years past, made his usual
spring visit, few days since, with a box of
fourteen pounds of handsome butter.
The lady of the house was very glad to get
the butter SO pure and fresh, and remarked
that be could call on her husband, and get
his pay.
g But, ma am,' said he, (" 1 shall not need
to see your husband as to the pay, as my visit
is one of conscience. found out a while
since that my steelyards, with which have
weighed all the butter sold to you for four
years past. gave short weight, and have
reckoned the loss to you to be fourteen pounds,
and have brought you this, for the purpose
of making restitution at the earlist day.

Kentucky.
A Kentucky jury acting under the pre-
sumed solemnity of an oath, has solemnity de-
clared that Wards killing of Butler was not
murder. A simple statement ofthe facts prov
ed on the trial will show how impossible If is
to acquit that jury Of perjury.
On the I'd OF November. at about 9 o'clock
in the morning, Mathew F. Ward went to a
gun-shop IN Louisville, bought self cooking
pistol which "would send bullet through q
two-inch board any how" as abe maker Of If
testified, and ordered it loaded he after
wards bought another of the same kind. which
he also ordered loaded Percussion cans wore
put upon both, and they were thrust into the
breast pocket of his coat He then went homo
and told his mother that he was going to the
school-room of Mr.. Butler, to demand an a.
pology Of him for having on the day nrevions
punished his brother Willie Ward and for
having charged him with lying. His mother
advised him to be calm, and to take his bro+h-
er Robert with him, as Butler was a larger
man than he was. Matthew told his brot6er
to get his hat and come along, which he ala
taking with him also large bowie knife
which he was in the habit of carving. The
two brothers proceeded to the school-roorn
and asked for Mr.. Butler, who was engaged
IN his duties IN the midst Of his pupils. and
who came forward on being called. Matthew
Ward told Buler he had come for an exnlana-
ton as to his having whipped his brother.
Butler asked him to step into his private room
where he would explain it to him. Ward re'
fused, saying that was the place to settle Il.
''Mr. Butler nodded; Matt said. what are
your ideas OF justices which is the worst. the
boy who begs chestnuts and throws the shells
on the floor and then lies about il. or nv
brother who gave them to hims Mr.. Butler
said he would not be Intercepted, putting his
pencil in his pocket and buttoning IN iscoat.
Matt. repeated the question; Butler said there
is no such boy here; Matt. said. that settles
the matter; but you called my brother liar
and for that must have an apology; Butler
said he had no apology to make; is your mind
made ups said Matt; Butler said it was; then.
said Matt, you must hear my opinion Of Won
you are id scoundrel and coward"
This statement of what took place thus far
is from the evidence of Ward brother Robert
who stood by, and who is also under indict.
ment as an accessory to themurder. 1t agrees
substantially with that of other Witnesses
Robert Ward proceeds to state that ON being
thus called sd scoundrel and coward y
Bntler ''struck Matt. twice, and pushed him
back against the door" He is the only one
OF all the witnesses who swears to any such
thing. One or two of the boys state that But
Ter put out his hands towards Ward; and one
says that he pushed him. All agree that Matt
drew his pistol, placed it against Buffers
breast and fired. Butler exclaimed INV

LEGIsLATURE.-The bunker Wings have
been fairly driven from almost every position
they have taken, during the latter portion of
the session of the legislature. This has been
effected by combination { ~ coa1tttong) of
the liberal portion Of the party with the Dem
ocrats and Free Sellers. The constitutional
amendments that have been adopted, ale any
thing but satisfactory to the Hunker clique
which has SO long ruled the party, On Sat-
urday, the Senate was completely driven back
on the amendment giving the choice of vari-
GUS officers to the people. The Senate plan
was merely to give the Legislature power to
make them elective hereafter. The House
made them elective absolutely, and added to
those proposed by the Senate, Clerks of the
Courts, Commissioners of Insolvency and
Registers of Probate. The aristocratic Sen
ate stood out long on these amendments,
but, finally, finding that further resistance
would peril some Of its favorite measures,
caved in, and concurred with the House.
This is great triumph of the democratic
principle. as
The liquor bill was finally lost, by disagree
ment between the two Houses, and this is
almost the only point on which the Hunkers
prevailed.
