A Family Matter.

The "Vindicator," noticing our remarks about
the fuss in the Democratic family, says sit is
better to have a fuss in the family than to
have no family to have o fuss in, as is the
case with the Spectators family" We take is
sue with our neighbor, and refer him to Proc
er6S, 2lst chapter and 10th verse, where Solo
mon says sit is better to dwell in the wilder
ness, than with contentious and an angry wo-
man." Good authority.
But says the ''Vindicator" "They will love
each other the more when the strife is healed.
How, we ask, is the strife to be healed9 One
half of the Democratic party is denouncing the
other half as freesoilers, abotionists, traitors
Are the faithful Democracy to take these vpers
to their bosoms again2 Not, certainly, without
q wonderful disregard of principle somewhere.
We are aware of the singularly attractive pow
er of ''the public plumber" and by that means
the ''family" may be brought together once more
in anticipation of the next great division OF the
'spoils." This very matter, however, has caused
most of the present troubles, for does not Solo
mon say, she that is greedy Of gain troubleth
his own house2" AS to ourselves we take CON-
fort from the further saying of the Wise Man
"Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than
q stalled OK and hatred herewith"

Ex-senator Benton.

Accounts from Washington city, on Friday
last, stated that the Hon. Thomas II. Benton
was dying. His disease, cancer of the bowels
had made such progress that he could not sur
vive much longer. A report that he had dice
ON Friday gained general circulation in Wash
ington, and premature announcement OF the
supposed fact was made in the House of Repre-
sentatives, and that body Immediately adjourn
ed. Before the members separated letter was
read, dated Thursday, written by Mr.. Benton
to Messrs. Houston and Jones, OF Tennessee, say
ing that in the event of his death he expressly
desired that no notice be taken of it. There
was no rule in either House to justify such pro-
oeedngs, and besides, it was contrary to his
convictions, many years ago expressed.
The Washington correspondent of the New
York Tribune wrote as follows, on Thursday,
the 9th inst:
An old and intimate friend from Missouri
called upon him this morning Benton was in
bed, scarcely able to move hand or foot and not
able 10 speak much above q whisper. But he
was hard at work, closing up his Abridgement
of the Debates in Congress, which he has brought
down to 1850, to the passage of the Compro-
mise measures. He was debating the closing
chapter of the work His daughter, Mrs. Jones,
sitting beside the bed, received it, sentence by
sentence, whispered in her ear, aud repeated it
aloud to her husband, who wrote it down. 1t
was then read over to Dol. Benton, and receiv-
ed his corrections, made with as much anxious
particularly as if were the maiden work OF
young author.
Resting few minutes from his task, Col
Benton entered into conversation with his Mis-
souri, friend He told him that in reviewing the
events of 1850 he was glad to find that the ami
mosities of the past had died out in his heart,
and he was not only ready, but eager to do JUS
tice to his former rivals and opponents. He
spoke with much feeling of Mr.. Clay, to whose
merits and services he had awarded the highest
praise in what he was writing about the Com
promise period Of 1850.
After the above was in type we received the
city papers of Monday, from which we learn
that Mr.. Benton died about half past seven o.
clock on Saturday morning. His last con-
nected words were in reply to au inquiry as to
how he felt, to which he family whispered,
Comfortable and content" The body will be
conveyed to st. Louis for interment. Mr.. Ben
ton was born near Hillsborough, North Carolina
March Il, 1872. The President visited Mr..
Benton on Friday, and the latter afterwards ex-
pressed his qualification at the interview. He is
said to have exhorted the President to rely up
on Divine support and guidance, aud not upon
that of men, who would deceive him.

Revised License Laws,

The Legislature on the 1st inst, passed two
acts, "more effectually to prevent dealing with
slaves or free-negroes." The first act refers to
merchants obtaining license to retail wine or
ardent spirits. County and Corporation Courts
are authorized to grant certificate of good
character, &C., to person desiring to obtain IL
cense, and if the certificate be refused it shall
not be granted to the applicant before the next
May term, unless by Court composed of the
same Justices to whom the first application was
made, or majority of the acting Justices of the
County or Corporation. In every case the per-
son to whom license is granted is required TO
enter into bond with sufficient security in pen
atty of five hundred dollars, payable to the Com.
monwealth, faithfully to observe the laws in re-
lation to dealing with slaves or free.negroes
and moreover to take an oath in open Court faith
fully to observe these laws. The act furthermore
provides that no one thus licensed shall sell wine
or ardent spirits to any free-negro unless up
on the writted certificate of three or more JUS
tees of the Peace, that the negro is SOBER order
ly, and of good character.
The second act relates to houses of entertain
ment, and is to the same effect as the former one
except that the penalty of the bond is two hun
dred dollars.

Reign of Terror.

The newspapers are full of accounts OF bloody
tragedies that are daily taking place on the pub
lie streets of Washington City. The frequency
and boldness of these terrible crimes have exelt-
ed such universal alarm that bill to establish
an auxiliary guard for the protection OF persons
and property in Washington has been passed in
the Senate of the United States. Robberies ana
murders are committed nightly, and neither lie
nor property is considered secure, while the CITY
authorities do nothing to arrest the depredatlons
of lawless desperadoes. The police ofhcers are
said to be in league with the perpetrators OF the
crimes, and objection was made to the bill on
the ground that the additional police force would
have to be taken from the very class which COM
mits all the depredations.
Mr.. Wilson narrated a case where man who
boarded in the same house with him was wit
ness recently to an assault made by fellow with
bowie knife, and the criminal was secured and
was about to be taken to the guard house, when
a police officer came up and took him IN custo-
dy; but he had only gone few steps with him
$1,000
self in the opposite direction, raising hue and
cry. 1t was only the other day that two men In
the employ of the government were shot on Cap
itol Hill, and it now turns out that the act was
committed by two persons one of whom is one
of the policemen of the city, and still further,
that the deed was witnessed by another police
officer who kept the matter secret for week or
ten DAYS, because he was afraid of his life if he
told of it.
The Democratic newspapers are teeming just
now with the details of these outrages in the
the City of Washington, where the Democratic
party is in power, but strange to say, we DO not
see this terrible state of affairs in any degree at
tribu,ed to the fact that the government of the
city is in Democratic hands. All the rowdylsm
and violence that have occurred in Baltimore for
several years past have been pronounced to be the
legitimate results of American ascendenoy in that
city. We should like to know whether it is the
American element in the city of Washington
which sproduced such alamentable state of at
fairs. We should like to know whether the po-
lice officers who connive at the assassination OF
unarmed men, and even shoot them down them
selves in the light of day, are members Of the
American party, and from whom they derive
their commissions. In this Democratic city,
these outrages are set down to the account of the
general depravity of human nature, entirely in
dependent of the political complexion of the city
government. Such would not be the case if this
''reign of terror" was just now being manifested
in the Know Nothing City of Baltimore. We
would not lay to Democratic account these high
crimes which are transferring the title of the
"Bloody City" from Baltimore to Washington
but mention the profound silence of Democratic
journals to show their wonderful consistency,
and the great wrong done to the party in power
in the city of Baltimore.

To The Editors of tie Staunton Spectator,

| GENTLEMEN The Board of Directors of tllit
company have no desire to carry Oh a newspa
per discussion about the regulation of their Ia
riff for freight, which they have still under con-
sideration, DESTROYS as they are to act carefully
on the subject, and, if possible, to give satisfac'
ton. They are disposed still to adhere to the
same course which they have heretofore pur-
sued, that is, not to enter the arena OF newspa-
per controversy, but only to write to give nfor-
nation. am sure you must have written the
editorial in your paper of the Oath March with
out correct information on two points.
1t is said the Railroad Company can well at
ford to wait until their debts are paid, before
getting dividends; looking to large profits after
wards. About S250,00O If debt is payable from
1866 to 1875; $206,500 is due in 1922 800,
900 in 1880; 100000 in the year 1884,
Would persons who invest in any other enter
prize be willing to wait twenty-six years with
out receiving some return? l think if you had
been apprized of the state of facts, you would
probably not have recommended that the stock
holders of this company should wait so long
without dividends.
Again, you are not correctly informed in sup
posing that only spectators in the stock desire
dividends. Some of the stock of original sub
scribers is now in the hands of the widow and
orphan, who need the interest on the invest
ment, and many of the original stockholders
themselves cannot afford to let their capital re-
main entirely unproductive, and the present Leg
islature have passed law requiring that Rail
road Companies shall so arrange their rates as to
make the stock productive if they can.

The REVIVAL IN New ORLEANs.--The religious
movement has at length reached New Orleans.
1t had been previously manifested in oil the CT
ties of the South. The New Orleans Picayune
says:
The movement however, in this city, consists,
as yet, only in the opening of places OF worship,
daily in all parts of the city, and in an unusual
attendance on religious services.
1t has been rare attraction which, in New
Orleans, has called any considerable number OF
men of business, gentlemen of leisure, or labor
ing men, from their usual routine OF pleasure or
labor, during the interval between Monday morn
ing and Saturday night, to visit our churches
The change, at the present moment visible here,
is the apparent disappearance, to some extent,
of what may be termed a characteristic indfter-
ence, and the growing cordialty manifested be-
tween churches of different creeds.
At the prayer meeting held each day, at dif,
ferent hours, in different places, and all attended
by large numbers, are to be seen quite as many
men as women, and the line of UNCONVENTIONAL
division in these reunions seems to be almost
entirely broken down.

The Kansas Bill.

The lower house of Congress has, by vote
of one hundred and nineteen yeas to one hun
dred and eleven nays, determined to adhere to
the Crittenden amendment to the Kansas bill
passed by the Senate. The vote to adhere, says
the Baltimore American, is the strongest that
can be made undersuch circumstances, and unless
the Senate, which is not probable, re-opens the
question by asking Committee of Conference,
the attempt to force Kansas into the Union on
the basis of the Lecompton Constitution, is eff
fectuay killed
