lion. Thomas II. Benton, died at WASH
iugton, on Saturday morning at l-2 past
o clock. His disease was cancer of the bow
els, causing him much suffering, which he
bore with fortitude and rorked on until death
claimed him as its victim. Like others Of
our great men he died in the harness, labor
ing for his country and mankind. Almost
down to the last hour, he dictated the clos
ing chapter of his great work, the "Abridge-
ment of the Debates of Congress" Mrs.
Carey Jones, a daughter repeated to her hus-
band WHO wrote it down, what was dictated
to her in whispers, by the dying patriot. To
an intimate friend from Missouri he expressed
his appreciation Of Henry Clay's services in
putting down the traitorous secessionists of the
South. The report of this interview continues;
The inspiration of this theme fred the Ian
guild blood and terminated for moment the
failing frame of the dying patriot. In ener-
getic whispers, he told his visitor that the
same men who had sought to destroy the Re-
public in 1850 Uere at the bottom Of The accur-
sed Lecompton business. Among the great
est of his consultations in dying was the con-
seriousness that the House of Representatives,
had ba6lsd these trsasonable schemers, and put
the heels Of the people on the neck Of the trai-
tors. Few events in our history had given
him so much satisfaction as the defeat of Le-
compton. He warmly praised the intrepid
and ineorruptible Douglas Democrats who
had resisted the power and the wiles of A
CORRUPT AND DELUDED ADMINS.
