Benton S Defeat,

The Louisville Times says, the "de-
feat of Col. Benton for Congress in
the St. Louis district, although
achieved, it is believed, by the Sc
cret political society known as Kaom-
Iojhings. must be a source of gratifi-
eAtion to the conservative Democra-
cy of the nation. The Democratic
party was once proud of Col. Benton.
Lie has rendered to the nation signal
services. His political vagaries Of
late years are wholly unaccountable,
always van, his vanity has grown
with bis years, until it has become
absolutely insuffera5le. And that
mad and vaul,ing ambition which
prompts "to rnie or ruin" has led him
into errors that viii do much to i'm
pair the reputation to which his long
and useful career entities him. In
force and energy of intellect, Col.
Benton has but few superiors. and in
political and historical information
probably no equal in this country
1t is melancholy to behold 50 great
a man fritIering away The last days
IF his life in the indulgence of pet
y spiles, and the pursuit of lisor
5anizing schemes. Col. Benton's
successful Wing competitor, Mr.. |
Kenneth, is not known to The politi- {
al world, but he is said % belong to
hat wing. Of the party which has no
ympathy with its disorganizihg

FaiIure Of The Crans.

From nearly all sections OF Kd h
lucky. says the Louisville Courier,
We hear oi the failure oil The grow
ing crops consequent upon the long
cont nued dronth- The corn crops
have suffered the most, as the sea-
son has lJo far advanced for anoth
es Planting. In Warren county,
Ky, we learn that very many far-
mers do not anticipate to realize
more than a barrel Of corn 10 the
acre. The tobacco plants are al
50 suffering greatly by the droulb,
and the prospects to the farmers are
gloomy enough. The price Of corn
iii this city, as we have heretofore
remarked, has advanced to &c and
69 cents, at retail, and the supplies
very limited, tie farmers unwilling
TO send their corn 10 market at all,
not knowing how soon they may be
compelled 10 buy 10 Iced their farm
stock.

Improved ChriStianidy

Tie eGenera al Association of Con-
necticnt,'' regrettiog, especially al
such time as this, the 81 hcnce of
the chief judicatorles of the Presby-
terrain Church on the subject of
slavery, have resolved as follows:
That while we have heard the
statement of DR.. Stiles with much
interest and high respect for himself
and with desire to cooperate with
all that We deem wise efforts to ex-
tend the Gospel of Christ, yet that
this body regard the American
Home Missionary Society correct in
its position not to grant aid TO slave
holding Missionaries. !"
In order to carry out the spirit
and principles of the se resolutions, a
writer in the Union RI commendS that
at their next meeting the Associa-
ton adopt the follow ing in addition,
viz:
Whereas, we learn from The 18th
chapter of Genesis, verses II and
-, that Father Abraham held slaves
bought with his own money! =
Therefore,
"Rssolcea, That God ought not to
have selected him as the chosen IA
Their Of bis chosen people, and we re-
pudiate him altogether as the fla
Their" Of such of the faithful as we
claim TO be.
"Reso1rea, That when the Angel
Of the Lord, as recorded in the lGtl
chapter Of Genesis, verse 8, ordered
the fugitiye-slave Hagar to return to
her mistress and submit herself to
her hands, (though she had dealt
hardly with herr he committed a
great wrong, inasmuch as such con-
duct implied that Heaven itself
had its fugitive slave law, and-we will
never consent TO associate with such
angels.
"RcSolrcd, That Paul, in initiating
the example Of the Angel in the Old
Testament, and sending the fugitive
slave Onesimus back to his master
Philemon, instead of running him off
TO parts unknown, proved himself TO
be totally unworthy Of being consid-
cred the Apostles of such Gcntiles
rs we are, and we do not recognize
Ills teachings or example as any au-
thority for US"

Aa Abolifioa Ealsehood Naized.-
Theodore Parker in his Boston SER
mon, preached after the recent fugi-
tive Slave case in that city, was re-
ported to have said that Simms, who
was sent back into slavery from Bos-
ton two years ago, was taken to the
prison in Savannah, and wh'pped till
be died. The Charleston Courler Of
the 18th, denies the statement, and
adds:
"When Simms was returned, his
master Immediately sent him to a
highly respectable broker of this
city, with instructions to sell him
forthwith, but allow him to select, ii
possible. his purchaser. This, Simms
was unable to do, and. therefore, at
his own request, was shipped to New
Orleans, where he found a party will
ling to buy him, and at this present
time is working in that city at his
trade Chat of a bricklayer) SO sue
ccssfully, that in a short time he will
be i'll acondition, if he feels so dis
posed, TO buy himself. So much for
Abolition yeracity."

has all his life been sustaining a par
ty which is unworthy Of support, for
the very obvious reason that his IN
auence and the foreign influence have
been uniformly ercrted on the san'e
side. Any rejecting man must see
that a Democrat who suffers himself
to be betrayed into this absurd course
of argument, is very rapidly, though
unconsciously turning himself into a
DONKEY. We have no doubt that a
few Democrats will be caught in this
trap, no withstanding the fact, that
the Know-Nothings have uni ormly'
opposed the Democratic candidates
for Mayoralties in every city where
they have been organized. To those
Democrats who want to try the ex-
pertinent, we have only to say, go

Wheat Production and Expectation
of the United States.

The Western Railroad Record es-
Inmates the wheat crop Of 1854 in
this country at l50,000,00p Of bush
els. and the home consumption at
l20,000,000, leaving but 80, 900, 900
for export Tie exports of the Uni
ted States in wheat and flour, re duceG
TO bushels, in 1851 and 1852, were
as fellows:
In 1851, 100000 bush. 1908, $50 bush
In 1852, 100000 bush. 1851 ,9o2 bush
1t will be seen that the proportion
was very nearly the same, viz:-l2
per cent. Of the crop. In a crop Of
l50,000,000, the same proportion
will give Is, 000,O bushels for ex-
portation. But as the price was then
ow, we must allow for an increased
export, under high prices. Thirty
however, is the very utmost
which we can export, without chang
ng the use Of wheat and flour fol
hat of corn. 1t is very evident,
hen, that if the war in Europe CON
inues, deranging, as itdoes, the souf- /
.es Of supply, and the market for
jresdstuils, the prices for breadstuffs
0 this country will continue 10 range
much above the ordinary average.

Roeaes All.

at the Massachusetts, Anti-Nebras-
ka Convention heldat Worcester, the
opinion the Abolitionists entertain
of each other is happily illustrated
BY the following incident, Shich We
find reported in the Boston Cou.
rier:
Mr. Pierpont resumed, and dis
cussed the Fugitive Slave Law and
..indred topics. While he was speak
ing, Dr. Abner Phelps of Boston,
who was upon the platform, discov-
cred that his wallet, containing notes
aud some thirty dollars id money,
had been distracted from his skirt
pocket He turned and seized the
person standing nearest to him, who
happened to be Mr.. Vice President
Clfrk. and proceeded to search his
pockets for the lost wallet. This ex-
cited a good deal Of merriment, and
Mr. Clark laughed heartily at the
operation d which he was subjected.
At last accounts, the doctor had not.
found bis lost treasure; certainly he
did not find it in Mr.. Clark's pos
session. 1t was strange that such a.
transaction should have taken place
upon the very altar of the virtues.

A JOYFUL FILLIBUsrgR. -The edi-
Tor of the Democrat, published at
Red river, Louisiana, has been spend
ing some time In New Orleans. and
he writes to his paper very confident
/ y that "the Queen of Antilles may
be set about preparing a wedding
dress for her marriage to Uncle Sam. "
And in order to show how the afcre-
said Queen is to be reduced to a sub
missive wife, he says:
Il state a fact, within. my own
knowledge, that nearly halfia million
Of dollars have been subscribed in
New Orleans, and paid in. NUM-

Dear Pie:-We had alb election
here, day or two since, for town
officers, the result of which was, that
the Know Nothings elected every
man on their ticket. ] don't know
anything about this Order, nor do-4
know its members. This is the news
as given to me.
There was an election also at Bay
st. Louis, for an Alderman. The
Know Nothing man got every vote
but one; so the other candidate knows
something is, who didn't vote
for him, and most probably who did.
