Mr.. Lindley's Prospects.

Mr.. Lindley will get much larger vote there this
year than he did last His majority will be from
Is to 100, and he barely carried the county last
summer. The Benton men won't touch Flournoy.
Lndley will get about the same vote in this coun-
ty he did last year. Intelligent gentlemen from
Grundy county assure me his majority will be in
creased there. think his election certain. w.
II. Smith is the democratic candidate for the Le-
gislature in this county. The Wings have no can
didate as yet.''
We saw gentleman yesterday who has been
through the Grand River counties, and he says the
friends of Mr.. Lindiey are everywhere sanguine.
Flournoy's stumping is doing the work WE'LL
Judge Smith, of Linn, has been travelling with
Flournoy, and answering his talks-for his efforts
can scarcely be called speeches. The Wings are
in good sprits-the Antics scared--and the Benton
men taking no interest in the election; particularly
in Flournoy The Antics are very gracious and
smiling-but the Benton men have not forgotten
Flournoy's vote for the Jackson resolutions, and
against Benton.

earnest Reputation Of error.
We also met Clark H. Green, editor of
the Glasgow Times and DR.. J. H. Herndon
editor of the Huntsville Recorder. They
are both good looking clever gentlemen. 1t is
much to be regretted that men of their abil-
tiles should devote their energies TO the pro-
mitigation of the heresy Of Whiggery. Hern-
don, however, is young and may yet become
a convert to trnth, but Green, we fear, is a
confirmed political sinner.

Kansas and Nebraska.

The greatest excitement prevails in the up-coun-
try, Oh the subject of the new Territories. Kansas
is more specially agitating the public mind. The
citizens of the border counties in this State have
held public meetings, and resolved to stand by and
protect each other in their claims of land and their
negro property. Strong resolutions were passed
and an apparent determination to sustain them, at
all hezards.
Private letters state that about ten thousand peo-
pie are on the move. Five hundred crossed over at
Weston, last Saturday, and about the same number
on Sunday, while the roads are filled with people
all bound for the new Territories. A determined

prominent positions upon the various COM
mittees--that, in fuct, the whole list Of COM
mittees have been formed without any re-
terence to the opinions Of the persons COM
posing them upon the slavery question.
Uuder these circumstances, / asserted
that if Col. Benton was made an exception
to the rule which was applied to the other
Democratic Senators, the blow aimed at him
would assuredly recoil upon the heads of
those who gave it, and protested against the
adoption of any rule wh,ch tcould make the
slaoery question a test Of faith in the Demo-
cratic party. This is the substance Of what
! said on that occasion. 1t is proper to re-
mark that those who urged the exclusion Of
Col. Benton, denied that they did so because
Of his opinions upon the slavery question;
but insisted that he was agitating that ques-
ton in Missouri unnecessarily, and in a
manner calculated 10 divide and destroy the
Democratic party, and therefore he should
not be placed upon the committee as a De-
mocrat, having shown himself hostile to the
unity and success of the party.
Subsequently it was proposed to place me
upon the Committee Of Foreign Relations,
instead of Col, Benton, to which posi-
lively objected, adding at the same time,
that under other circumstances, would pre-
fer serving on that committee to hny other
in the Senate, but could not accept it to the
exclusion of Col. Benton, or any other SEN
ator who had prior or higher right to the
place. The vote being taken it was an
nounced by the Chair that had received a
majority, although l had voted for Col.
al,
nounced to the caucus, that although under
other circumstances would prefer a place
on that committee 10 any other i'll the Sem
ate, yet could not consent to accept it,
when my acceptance would exclude Col.
Benton from it. AT subsequent meeting
OF the caucus, Col. Benton was placed upon
the committee, although not as chairman, as
had desired. The reason assigned for
leaving him off as chairman was, that he had
at first made a formal request through per-
sonal and political friend, that he should
not be made chairman Of any Committee
Although he subsequently withdrew that
selected another gentleman for chairman,
was unwilling TO make the change, and
therefore assigned him place as men,
Der of the committee. From this statement
you can Judge how much credit is due to
charges of your correspondent, that acted
prominent part in excluding Col Benton
from the Craftsmanship of the Committee
on Foreign Relations. Had this transaction
taken place with open doors, l should not
have noticed the misrepresentation of your
cores pendent. In conclusion, it is due to
you, Messeurs Editors, that acquit you o.
any intention TO do me injustice.

Indian Attack Upon Emigants.

relations committed by the Indians on the proper

is dated Loup Fork of the Platte River, June ID.

They had been driven from their wagons by par
ty of Pawnee Indians. They had two wagons
drawn by cattle and 1000 sheep, and number of
horses. This company was commanded by Hum
phrey Cooper, who was the owner of the Proper
ty. On the 29th of May, 90 miles from ST. Mary,
at the Loup Fork, they met by three Indians

selves Sioux. They left the tram and went about
nine miles. When the emigrants reached that
point, they were met party of Indian warriors

him to keep off, drawing, at the same time, a re-

to his men. and they commenced firing at the
whites with rifles. They had made breast work
