WATER AT ST.. LoUIS.-Our cores
pendent, A. r. Jones, qrites US that the
Mississippi, at st. Louis, on Monday
noon, was higher by several feet than it
has been in five years. The water was
within two feet of the levee, which had
been reduced to very narrow strip oil
dry land in front of the stores, on which
there was not room to transact hall the
business that was crowding upon it
The rise from Friday night to Monday
morning was more than nine feet. A
OF inc Front street stores. h-fr- wis
spreading over the American bottoms be-
low the railroads on the Illinois shore,
The rise is principally from the lower
tributaries Of the Missouri. Above St
Joseph that river is reported low. The
Mississippi above Keokuk, was falling
Alter four days Of continued rain. on
tuesday, it still continued to ponr down
without internission. The rise that had
taken place at st. Louis, without any
further accession, it was thought was
enough to strike terror into the hearts O,
the people on the lower Mississippi. The
plantations that had been barely saved
from the previous rise, would inevitably
go under, 1T was thought, with tho new
flood. But the Ohio has been falling
rapidly and diminishing its contribution
to the Mississippi current, and all the
rivers below the Ohio, have already fallen.
and it is to be hoped that this recent
Hood from the main channel will not be
felt seriously below.

MORE BRITISH AGGREssioNs.-An ar.
rival at New York, from Sagua, Cuba
reports that an attempt was made by
the officers Of the British steamer, Buzz
zard, to compel Capt. Bartlett, of the
American ship Clarendon, in the port O,
Sagua, to show his papers and to hoist
the ensign of the Buzzard. Capt. Bart,
lett refused. The steamer fired several
blank cartridges to intimidate him, and
then the commander, with one hundred
men proceeded to the Clarendon. Capt.
Bartlett refused to let any one on board,
but the officer, who after an exciting
scene, left without accomplishing his
purpose.
During the affair, Capt. Bartlett was
struck, but the officer denied any iuten-
ton of so doing.

BEsTos AND BUcHAsAS.-Mr. w. Carey
Jones, son-in-law of Col. Benton, and walt
err on Executive jobs, a. Washington, hav-
ing denied, in published letter, that Col.
Benton condemned OH his death-bed the
Kansas policy ofIMr. Buchanan, Mr. Fran
els p. Blair, member of Congress from 81.
Louis, has written a letter to the N. Y. Tri-
bune, in which he maintains the correctness
of his version of the language then uttered
by Mr.. Benton, concerning Mr.. Buchanan.
He then proceeds TO show from recorded
| evidence in Col. Bcnton's own handwriting
| that he opposed to Mr.. Buchanan and
his administration, and was opposed to the
! settlement of the territorial question rela-
ting to slavery in the mode proposed by MIR
Buchanan, but on the contrary, resolved on
the agitation of the subject until the opin-
ion of the Supreme Court, opening all tho
territories to the introduction OF slaves, were
rendered abortive by the action of Congress
in the maintenance of the political rights
of the people; that he was opposed TO MI
} Buchanan not merely on the score OF IN
, pending measures, but because he had re

. he believed him anti-Democratic at heart.
In proof OF these positions, Mr.. Blair pub
c fishes in full series of resolutions, togcthe
with preamble and proviso which Ml
Benton gave to Francis L. Blair, Jr., to sub
n nit to the Republican members OF Congress
, The resolutit ms refer to the bred Scott dt
!, cision of the Supreme Court, denouncin
G that decision extra judicial, illegal an
void, and also in derogation OF the powe
10 of Congress to legslate for the Territorie
: and that consequently it had become u
;, duty of Congress to vindicate its rights
asserting Its full Authority to lcgislate up.t
v. slavery in the Territories, and to declare !
~ total disregard of that decision. The pr
~ amble was intended by Col. Benton to

n zonia. 1t refers to the fact that, by Writ
- of the laws of Mexico, that Territory is M
In free from slavery, and provides that, ne
- withstauding the bred Scott decision,
- should remain so.
t. Mr.. Blair also refers to paper given
"a Mr.. Benton to Col. Fremont ut their last

y, for abandoning Mr.. Buchanan, and also
