The CONTEST ENDED.-Ere going to press
to-day, We have a private despatch from New
Orleans saying that yesterday Mr.. Benjamin
was renominated by the Democratic caucus for
reelection to the United States Senate. On
the ballot before that contamination, the Hon.
Mr.. Sandidge received thirty-f five votes; just
half the caucus. Whereupon it is presumed
that those who had voted up to that time &C.
casionally for others united with the friends Of
Mr. Benjamin, and thus nominal ted him.
The protracted contest between the friends
of these two distinguished gentlemen, though
animated, has been conducted in capital tenn
per; for nothing transpired in its course tend.
ing in any manner to interrupt their friendly
relations. Either Of them would have graced
the position and been entirely acceptable to

which opposition to our purchase of Cuba can
be rested is that of Spanish pride. 1t says:
THE Castilian pride has suffered many In

therefore at this late day, the mere mooting,

question Of purchasing an island which the well

people. demand shall be politically united to tn
