The GREAT SPEECH To-NIGHT.-Mr Benton,
nothing preventing, will arrive in the city in the
afternoon Eastern train to-day, and, this even
ing, will deliver his copyrighted speech on
1.-THE UNION" at Washington Hall. What
ever any of us may think of the faults of Ben.
ton, we must accord him intellectual greatness,
-as politician deeply read, experienced in all
the great events of our national history for al
most half century,s>-braye, ardent and indus
triOus. We cannot but admirc him. He is, in
all probability, the greatest embodiment Of mat.
ter-offact political history now living. He was
upon the public arena ere many of the Revolu-
tionary sagcs had left it,-he was conversaut
with many of them,-he was the devoted friend
of Jackson,-he was the great compeer of Clay,
Webster, Calhoun, Martin Van Buren,, Cas-,
Haynes, McDuffe, and Randolph
Tonight is probably the last time most of us
will ever have an opportunity to see this 'sold
man eloquent" or any of US to hear him speak
in public, and We expectt to sec Washington Hal i
perfect jam. In other cities, the price of ad-
mission was 90 cents and the houses were
crowded. Here, only % cents will DO charged.

PRESENTATION YEsrERDAY.-Yeste even
ing the operatives of the Belmont Mills present
ed to Rev. Franklin Moore a most splendid copy
OF the Bible 1t was given as token of their
high regard for the reverend gentleman as a
scholar, an orator, and an accomplished gentle
man and christian.
1t was the Proudest moment of Kossuth's
hlc, when he received, at the hands of the me.
eaan'ss of London, his splendid copy of shaks-
pearS, which had been bought by voluntary
penny contribution of the working mcn. So
VIC thought last night it INST have been joyful
moment for the Rev. Mr.. Moore, to know that
ms eloquent labOrs had sunk deep into the
hearts Of these plain minded men, and given
Nun a position in their estimation which til,
most eminent might envy.

The SOrgllO Sucre, on Chinese
sugar Cane.

The New Orleans Delta publishes the
following extract from letter from Thorn
as Affieck, Esq, of Mississippi, to su-
gar planter, on seeking il formation rela-
tive to the newly introduced Sorgho Su-
ere.
The Chinese Sugar Cane, so called
(Sorghum Saccharatum) the Sorgho Su-
ere of the French, do verify believe Will
prove to be all that is claimed for 1T. L
have studied it closely, and watched the
results Of the various experiments MADE
| from it's first introduction to France to this
time. That itmay possibly '.supplant our
| sugar cane" | cannot pretend to say; yet
| such result would not be at all surprising:
Nor can [ sse why you should feel alarmed
at the prospect; on the contrary, as you
fear "a decided short crop of cane" not
only on your own plantation, but generally
lin Louisiana, l should say SOW all of the
seed of this new plant that you can find
time or land for, and test it thoroughly. Il
Providence has sent us perfectly hardy
annual, exceedingly rich in sugar, to take
the place of the very uncertain 'cane, by
all means let us accept of the boom
You have ''the land, the hands trained t.
, the work. the buildings and machiner.
| sufficient for double the crop you are like
t lly to make from the cane now In TIN
= ground" why then not try this plant
: Y on cannot lose much by it, as it yields
most valuable article of fodder, and may
and think must, gain very greatly by
n in the results of your sugar crop. Eve
if Improves to be all that its admirers CLAIM
= for it, wherever the maize reaches its hlgf
= est perfection, the sorghum will assuredl
yield more sugar with you than furth'
d north, besides attaining vastly large
e growth. These facts, together with yor
d supply of machinery perfectly adapted
J the purpose, and your thorough kuowledg
3 of sugar making, !, must give your sug
d growers in Louisiana vast advantage ov
- the farmers of the West. Many Will the
-e and elsewhere make their own supply
l. sugar, and perhaps something more
ut they now do from the maple tree; but
f. doubt if it be largely Carried ON as a bu:
es ness, for many years, II ever.

CONGRESSIONAL MANNERs.-On Satur-
urday morning gentleman and his wife
took seats together in the Northern cars
at Washington, but the gentleman was
obliged to leave for moment to look after
his baggage. On his return, he found the
Hon. Albert Rust, of Ark, sitting in his
seat, to whom he explained that it was his
seat. and that it was his wife who occu-
pied the place beside him. Mr., Rust re,
fused to leave. The gentleman persisted
urgently in claiming his seat, when The
Hon. Member rose and drew his bowie
knife. A fight seemed inevitable, but
the general feeling manifested itself 50
strongly against Rust that he put up his
knife and agreed to leave the seat: II per-
mitted to retire with the honors of war
The lady was so frightened that she was
barely saved from fainting. Rust left the
cars at the Relay House and went Vest

A WARM PLAcE.-The English are in-
lucky in the places they have to fight. The
Persian Gulf, where they now have large
force concentrated, is one of the most
scorching places i'll the world, though they
may get through their work before the hot
season shall set in; but they must make
more haste than they did in the Euxine, II
they wish not to be baked and boiled
Lieut.. Wellstead, who travelled extensive
ly in that part of the world, mentions
what happened to the crew of the British
frIgate Liverpool, in 1921, while sailing
from Muscat to Bushire The weather
became so hot that double awnings were
found necessary, the decks were kept con-
stantly wet, and every possible means were
| made use of to prevent the men from be-
| ing exposed to the heat Yet III one day
three Lieutenants and thirty foremast
hands died from sunstrokes. Even an in
stant's exposure to the sun was sufficient
to strike down man. Insensibility, YER
tiGo, and foaming at the mouth, were soon
followed by death. Recovery from an at
tack was rare.
The frigates main deck is described as
having resembled a slaughter house, SO nu-
merous were the bleeding patients The
nights that follow such days as these are
remarkable for their heavy dews which
might be called showers. A fleet and an
army exposed to such climate as this, Ill
the summer, would probably lose more IN
week than would fall in months active
operations by sea and field. Should the
Persian war be continued and be drawn
. out late in the year, heat may be found as
potent an auxiliary TO the Persian Shah
against the English as ever cold WIS to the
e Gar against the French. In war, proba-
= bly ten men die from sickness brought on
from influence of climate for every one
, who falls by lead or steel. The English
s seem to suffer more in this way than any
= other soldiers. The Roman custom OF
i making war in all clmes with perfect safe
: ty to the troops employed, barring deaths
D., and wounds on the field must be placed
IL among the list of lost arts.
