Gel. Densos In New England.
Col Benton has been spending some time
among the Yankees, and he knows EN- better
and thinks deal more Of them than ever be-
fore he vsited the work shops, aud is booked
up - 70 the operatives, their appearance, intel
ligence and mode Of living. He had been in the
habit Of likening them TO the working men and
women Of old England, or perhaps the slaves at
the south, bu. since his brief scjoarn among
them, his mind has changed materially, and
what Il better he has the manlines to scknowl
edge bis errors, and add his commendation.-
II the New England dinner at New York, be
makes the following remarks:
II have gone through their factories from
top 70 bottom. have been astonished at the
perfection Of their machinery. The rooms are
ample aud well ventilated iu summer and well
warmed ia winter. The operatives, too, are
comely, male and female, and this too struck
me A. passed through. made 1t my business
TO converse with them, and with the young NO.
meu. found them attractive and comedy, mo-
dest without being bashful, confident without as
snrancc, and quite intelligent I went also
through the boarding houses and there all my
ideas were reversed, for l had before supposed
that the operatives In New England as in Old
England, were living in small, narrow, confined
and uncomfortable buildings with poor food
but, on the contrary, found them-I say it
without disparagement to any body-stuated o.

In tho parlor there was furniture equal to that
whica can be found in Congress boarding hou

II, who have been through their sterile fields
have found every where, for have examined
into everything, an abundance Of hospitality and
comfort with which was before unacquainted.',
But he is going back again to New England,
to spend yet more time, and he concludes thus
with reference TO the loyalty of the New Eng.
land people to the Government Of the Union
''When return to the great west shall be
able TO bear my testimony everywhere that in
all the extended domain of this wide Union,
there 10 no place where the hearts Of the people
IL speak Of the masses-are more loyal to the
Union Of these States Applause.

SERVED THEN RIaHr.--The ST. Louis Demo-
crat says, there is serious talk now Of removing
the State Capital from Jefferson City to some
other point, and suggests that St. Louis is the
place. It says the members are much disaffect-
ed in regard to the present locality, and why
shonld they not be, when they are receiv ng a
per diem allowance Of %, and ply $50 per week
for board, besides, extras, such as tobacco, whs.
key &C., and "what member can be eloquent
without the ETHEREAL influence of corn" Serve
them right out there. No business to charge $50
for board without furnishing the whiskey.
