In his speech at Cape Grardeau, Mr. Ben
ton, while commenting very freely ON the Pierce
and Douglas. dynasty, revealed the important
fact that the Buchanan men had determined in
the Convention to dispense with the two thirds
rule and demand that the nomination of their ia.
vorte by majority should be accepted. This
two-thirds rule has been held up by Democrats
in this section as the very Palladium of South
ern safety. The disclosure of Mr. Benton shows
that the supporters of Mr.. Buchanan were pre-
pared to trample it down. A knowledge of this
fact on the part of Southern members may have
induced the giving away of the minority. which
occurred the morning Of Friday. Mr.. Benton's
statement is another link in the chain of evidence
to prove that Mr.. Buchanan's nomination was a
victory of the North over the South. We give
an extract from his speech
Col. Benton took occasion ~ refer 10 the recent
Convention at Cincinnati where he had been present
as a spectator. II was the first convention he
witnessed in his life, and what he saw there tended
more than anything else to confirm the opinions he
had long entertained respecting the working of such
machinery In the present instance it gotten
up for purpose, and no one was to be admitted who
was not privy TO that purpose if the coalition of
Pierce and Douglas could prevent them. Such was
the object in handto defeat any national man, aud
pass over the next administration to the keeping of
tne pfeeent once holders
The result, however, great rebuke TO the Ad-
ministration-the greatest administered to men
in power. In fact, the unanimous shout given for
Mr.. Buchanan's nomination the unanimous shout
for Mr.. Pierce's dismission
Mr.. Pierce and Mr.. Douglas sent discretionary
power to withdraw them: they did not withdraw
themselves but sent discretionary authority to those
who were upon the ground, and could see how thu
contest was going. 1t death bed withdrawal
and done at the last gasp. perfectly yell kao,c,
dsf the mgjory did not 10 be defeated The oh
game Of the minority ruling the majority was not Il
b played again. Mr.. Buchanan had received a ma
jority ofthe votes fifteen times hand running it wa
fair nomination according to the Democratic prin
ciple, the majority 70 govern; also according to tn
Whig priuciple, in whose convention the MAJORITY
governs the nomination.
In that particular they are more democratic thai
the modern democracy, since they adopted the MULTI
cation rule OF two-thirds. perfectly oeA knor
that majority intsmded on Friday TO offer resoinao
in ne convention that Mr. Buchanan, hapig received
syos5ey, Dolly nominated; and equally well know
that tens Of thousands of good citizens meant to sn
tain that resolution Mr.. Buchanan never receive
the two-third sctes he lacked forty of it when tn
outside pressure compelled the withdrawal of th
administration, flor Pierce and Douglas con
SANITY considered as one, the event proved thel
