Col. BENTON FAIRLY CoRNERED AT LAST
Concluding, no doubt, that the nomination of Col
Fremont at Philadelphia, as candidate for the
Presidency, was out Of the range Of probable
events, Col. Benton, in Missouri took the stump
for Buchanan in advance Of the Philadelphia
nomination. Now the question is, what will Ben

or come over to Fremont? We ask for informa-

KANSAS BnIs.-Both houses Of Congress are
at length fairly convinced that the case of Kan
sas requires good deal of patching. One men,
Der of the House has introduced bill to annex
the disputed territory to Nebraska; Mr.. Seward,
of the Senate, proposes the admission of Kansas
as free State without further delay; Mr.. Crit
tenden humanely proposes that the fighting abo-
lition squatters and the border ruffians be
placed under the rigid and excellent dis
cipline of General Scott; and lastly, Mr..
Toombs, Of Georgia, moves for q census of
Kansas, with view to her admission as State.
If Mr.. Toombs can accomplish this scheme of his,
and secure the admission of Kansas before Octo-
Der, either as free State or as slave State, it
will have an astonishing effect on the pacifcation
of the whole country. Otherwise, there is danger
that the border ruffanism of Kansas may be diff
fused through the States. We have had a touch
of it at Washington already and if Kansas is
kept open and in state Of civil and military
anarchy, the contagion may become universal.
Let the plan, therefore, of Mr.. Toombs be tried.
Take census of Kansas, let the people call a
convention, let the bona fde voters be protected,
and slavery or no slavery let the new State come
in. If the South are willing, why should the
North object, Boosting as they do a large MAORI
ty Of the actual settlers?

The FILLMORE PRoCEssIoN-The reception
and impromptu procession got up on Sunday
night in honor of the arrival of Mr.. Fillmore, en-
thusastic and noisy as it was does not suffice. He
is to have another. The Committee of the Cor
poration were busy all day yesterday arranging
it. Alderman Briggs particularly distinguishing
himself as usual If the worthy ex-President is
allowed sufficient time to read two or three
of the morning papers he will probably exercise
the wise discretion Of declining to be exhibited as
proposed; or would it not be well to have this
Fillmore procession and the grand Fremont
ratification meeting called together in the Park
at the same time? What says Mr.. Briggs? What
says Mr.. Van Ripper, Of the late Fillmore National
Club? He ought to wait upon the ex-President
officially without further delay. Mr.. Fillmore is

The simple truth is, that Mr.. Buchanan is ma

The events we have detailed show that he may

P%HOsPHATED GUANO,

This valuable fertilizer, composed of equal parts
otPeruViau Guano and fine Bone Dust, is offered
TO Planters as an article in every way Superior and
far more lasting than Guano used by itself. 1t is an
established fact that Gnano lacks PHOSPHATE OF
LIME, and also that one halfof its fertilizing quail
ties are dissipated in the air, which Is plainly to be
perceived by the strong ammonical smell constant
iy emitted by it until its strength is gone. Bone
dust is nothing more than Phosphate Of Lime, and
this. besides being a strong and valuable manure,
fixes the ammonia in the Guano, and retains it IN.
til its absorbed by the plants. A trial of this
fertilizer will satisfy any one of its durability and
superior efficacy to simple Guano.
For sale in barrels about two hundred and ffy
pounds each, at two cents per h.. A.
SUPER PHOSPHATE OF LIME.
This highly concentrated fertilizer is composed
of Animal Matter, Sulphnric Acid, Bone Dust,
Gypsum and Sulphae of Iron, each of which by
itself is a powerful manure. Five hundred
pounds, or about two barrels of this Super
Phosphate of Lime have been found to be fully
equal, i'll beneficial effects, to thirty wagon loads of
ordinary Stable Manure.
PERUVIAN GUANO, in sacks OF about one
hundred aed forty pounds, at 2 lr2 cents per ID.

edicated TO the heart-stricken few who survive

Weep for the living! for the dead
Rest meath the briny deep
Kissed by the dark seas silvery spray,
In quietness they sleep.
The angry wall that speoks above
The tempeSts fearfnl rave,
Harms not the dead who lie entombed
Beneath the oceans wave.
Weep for the ~iving-for the rang
That dims the orphans eye,
Tells Of their fearless, hapless fate
Harder to live than de-"
Tells Of the bitter, bitter woe
Their stricken hearts must bear
The grief THAI Overruns the soul
With anguish aud despairl
Weep for the ~livirg! Weep for her
With widow'd anguish riven,
Whose burning sigh in every breath
Is waited up 10 Heaven.
Weep for the husband, who yet lives
Ref Of all earthly ties
Wife, children, all he loved 10 gone!
Oh, breathe for him your signs!
Weep for the parents who are left
Childless, and full Of years
The gloom that overshadows them,
Finds no relief in tears.
For them Hfe's but a b~lank-they feel
No single glad'ning ray
The future stands before them bu!
One dark and cheerless day!
Weep for the mother! Weep for her
Who mid the breakers wild,
Stood helpless whils the angry tide
Bore of her darling child!
Win in that awful night of death,
When waves ran mountains high,
Still heard their struggling children scream
& 20 mother must i die"
Weep for the liEing-for the dead
Feeln moi the pangs of wo
That cluster round the stricken heart,
Its pulses TO o'erfowl
But weep for those who still mus. live.
Reft of each hope and Joy
Weep for the broken hearted few
That death would not destroy.
