DcrWhy is it that Mr.. Benton's able speech, in
opposition to the Nebraska bill, has not been pub
lished in the Cadiz Sentine7 REPUBLICAN,
81rDo you think it is any OF your business1 Per
haps by attending to the interests Of your own paps
you would make iusta as much as you would by med
ding with the affairs Of the Sentinel
But to stop your whining and inqui sitiveness a.
bout the matter, we will tell you why we do not pub
lish Benton's speech in the Sentinel. 1t is smpl
ihs: We have no confidence whatever in Col Ben.
tons political opinions We believe that his on.
position to the Nebraska bill is altogether owing to
his natural contrary, yranical disposition; and thai
he is not sincere in his opposition, his former po.
hticsl acts fqly show And further, we are not SC
much Of an old fogy, as to believe, that because
man has arrived to good old age, that he is any
wiser than some who are younger than he is And
whom we publish speeches either for or against the
Nebraska bill, or any other measure, we will try and
publish those that come from rren in whom we, "a
an individual, have some confidence. This, we
trust, will satisfJ your inquisitiveness.
Now, for the other side Of the question. What do
you think Of the following extract from Col. Ben.
tons late speech which you published in your IN.
per:
"Whot advantage do the slave States expect from
this (Nehraskal billl Certainly they expect the ex
Ieusi1n of slave power, and slave population. That
may prove fallacious expectation. The question
of suvery in these territories, thrown open To ter.
ritorial action, will be question OF numbers-a
question Of the majority for or against slavery; and
what chance would the STAKEHOLDER have in such a
contestl NO CHANCE AT ALL. The slave EN-.
igrants will be outnunbered, and compelled tOplav
most unequal gnne not only in point Of numbers
but aao in point Of stakes. The stakeholder stakes
his properly and has 10 run it off or lose it, if ont.
voted at the polls. | see nothing which slavehol.
ders are to gain under this bi-nothina but an un.
equal and vexatious contest in which they are TO be
LOSERS. w. Extract from Bentons late speech
Please digest the above for the benefit Of your
readers, who would rather q 10 you explain it. than
any other man. And as you are SO particularly fond
Of this speech and the subject it relates to, why do
you not publish speeches that come from whig
members Of the Ohio delegationi We mean the
speeches Of Taylor, ssppi Ball and Harrison Are
they not worthy Of publication in the whig papers
oftheir own Statsl The reason that you do not SO,
Is this Benton abuses the administration, out Of
which you think you make political capital, and
they do not siogp as low, as he does If Benton had
said nothing about the administration his speech
would never appeared in the Cadiz Republican.

BT- The Wheat Crop looks we'll, gener
ally, in this ragion, especially on good Land
where sown early. In other parts OF Ohio,
ard in other wheat States, the reports are
also generally favorable. We may hope,
therefore. that our country will again be
bles'ed with plenty Of this important staple
and have a large surplus,to spare for coun
tries that may need. 1t is reported that in
some Of the best wheat districts of France
the crop is likely to prove failure; hut
this rumor is perhaps premature. In Eng
land papers state that An unusaal breadth
of wheat was sogn, and that the crop looks
well. The high price Of farm produce
there, as here, have stimulated farmers to
unusual activity. and the prloc' oilAbcr have
