St. Louis and Weston Rail Road.

The Liberty Tribune, in a lengthy and
able article on the subject of the St. Louis
and Weston Rail Road, suys;--
The counties of Boone and Galloway, it
will be seen, were not represented in the
convention but we presume they are in for
the road, and will do their duty towards
building it. If they however, should fail,
whilst we would regret exceedingly to have
to pass by "Old Howard" who has come up
so nobly, we will nevertheless, take the Ran
do!ph chute and connect with the North
Missouri, the Hannibal and st. Joseph, OF
some of the eastern lines at Quincy or Keo.
lsuk, for Upper Missouri intends TO get tt
market,
Some of our friends express fear that
as St. Louis thinks she has our trade any
how, she will not be disposed to take stocl
| in our road. We have no such fears. II
however, we are mistaken, New York ans
Boston have only to hear from us, and to b.
fully advised Of the wealth of our country, Il
assist us.
AS Missourians, we want to build up tn
great western city, and we have too hig
an opinion of the sagacity of her business an
public men to entertain doubt of her viii
lingness to help us build the "Weston an
st. Louis Railroad" !" although the "Repub
lican" has, thus far, given us the ''col
shoulder"

Stultifying Himself.

The Editor of the jefferson Examiner is
re-publishing Benton's celebrated Jefferson
City speech, delivered in May, 1S49, to
show that Benton is freesoiler, and labor
ing cheek-by-jOwl with "Chasc, Seward,
Giddings & CO.. Fifteen months after
that speech was delivered, Trcdway was a
noisy Benton man himsef-talking and wri-
ting for Benton-and in August, 1850, ac-
tually went to the polls, in Charlton County,
and voted for John Miller, Benton candidate
for Congress, and against James S. Green.
the leader of the Antics. Green used that
same speech in the canvass, to prove free
soilism on Benton, Tredway and others
Now, Ttedway is publishing the speech tc
prove that he was then free-soiler. He
was first Anti-then Benton-and is now
Anti again. By the same ratio of progres:
he will be Benton again, some time this sum,
mer-soon after the election, perhaps, wher
the Antics stop the "material aid" that i:
necessary to propel the Examiner concern
when he will justify himself by the SAME
speech.
