The GREAT WEST.

es letter from Chicago correspondent unde
date of June llth, with tile signature G from
which we make the following extract:
The West, vigorous and healthy, from day tc
day rises to might and power. She is as vet a
hard working laborer, but higher culture O,
mind will dawn upon her. As said above
freedom and labor are the sole creators and le.
glslators in these latitudes; they are the divine
light and the all-inspiring life Under their
influence, 5 tates grow more in day, than any.
Were IN the past in many centuries No
naughty conquerors found them, no special
heroes or great men Iegslate for them All is
done by peaceful, industrious in.ellcc,s and
hands. Such men choose and trace out he
spo:s Ioi settlements and cities. Not as Of old.
forcastes, strongho'ds, Businesses, where 10 hide
the spoils OF rapine, but these modern orgina-
tors OF society select positions the best
adapted to become commercial centers Such
men, whose names will never resound in records
and annals to terrify school boys-such men
have more real claims to the gratitude of their
brethern than the numberless heroes preser, ed
by History. Where few years ago stood In
dian wigwams, they have firmly implanted the
beacon OF civilization, and in a few years i,s
wonders astonlsh one even well acquainted with
the workings of modern society elsewhere.-
Unknown to their own country, even to their
own generation, such men might victoriously
contest the crown Of real citizenship and great
cess with those who for scores of INJURIES have
shone in the worlds history Only yesterday
they expelled by treaty the great wandering
tribes OF Indians TO make room for a steady and
luminous Christian civilization. Already a
higher life teens in this firmly established so.
cie'y, and they ENJOY the ripe fruits of their
labor Such men, if they have laborinusiy and
ingeniously made fortunes, have also largely
contributed to secure fortunes to thousands of
others, and this without conquest, bloodshed, or
spollation. How many are the names of the
founders of ancient and Of European societies
or empires, who ever succeeded in similar
manner?

ON NEBRASK 4.

A gentleman from :. Bosting" Mass who
made up one of The party of cxcursons;s,
writes to the Boston Commonwealth as fol-
lows:
| have been astonisired and amazed, on TAX
ing with men from all quarters and OF all poll
iical parties, to hear the almost universal con-
demnati"n of the Nebraska bill OF the nearly
Thousand men of the excursion party do
not think there are twenty who are not against
it. The opposition to it from the people of the
northwestern States is almost unanimous. do
not know, and after d!igen, inquiry, | have
been able to hear of but one individual of the
party from the northwestern States, who is in
favor OF the Nebraska bill. This man believe
is an Office holder. The llinoisans say they
will not sustain either Douglas or Richardson,
OF any other OF the supporters of the bill
Astonlshed as have been at the unanimous
opposition to the Nebraska iniquity, | have
been still more amazed at the unanimity and
enthusiasm with which men Of all parties talk
of making Old Bullion President. The whole
country here is all one way upon the poi..t
aave seen several of the distinguished New
York " Hards" several Southern politicians of
experience and sagacity, Viii rs from the East
and Wings from the West, and Democrats of
all stripes and colors, and from various lncali-
ties, who all concur in saying that they have
got tired Of national conventions and Of the
small potato Presidents of the Pierce stamp,
and that they are ready to bury all past differ
ences and make Tom Benton President The
feeling in favor of Benton throughout all this
rart OF the country amouHts to a perfect furor.
In all my political experience | have never
known such deep and determined feeling mani.
tested in favor of any candidate for President as
have seen for Benton since left Massachu-
setts. ! did not dream of such state Of things
and it will be hard for you to conceive il, bu,
there is unquestionably fixed determination OF
the people to have man for the next Presi-
dent.
This man must be either fool or knavp, for
there is not word OF truth in all this fun
merry. The principles embraced in the Nrbras
ka measure, are popular in the West and the
Fall elections will prove it.
