Speech of Col. Benton.
Col. Benton delivered a very characteris

October,. Ile thanked his constituents for
returning him to Congress, aqd then, "still
harping on my daughter,".said :
"I have been sold out of the State and a
conspiracy bad been formed to keep me out
and to destory me in the good opinion of my
fellow citizens. I was net of n temper to
submit to such outrages. That was a per
sonal reason for standing the election ; there
were also public reasons for doing so ; there
was a party among us plotting to join the
State to a Southern confederacy ; and I did
not deem it right to abandon the State to
their machinations. There were good men
among us deceived and I did not tleem it
right to leave them in error. Tha friends
of the Union. called• fur my help, and I
.could not be deaf to their call. Thus I was
made a candidate in spite myself, arid those
who plotted my destruction, as standing in
the way.
"I have been successful—no ! • We have
been successful ! and I saw the effect of this
success both at home and abroad upon the
public 'mind. I have traveled since the
election, and witnessed an unusual specta
cle—almost national congratulations on the
'event of an individual election !--a public
:rejoicing on the mere return of one man to
the national` councils. Everywhere, front
'the Mississippi to the Potomac, have I
'met congratulations; and not political friends
only, but good men of all parties."
After dwelling long and quite eloquently
upon himself; Colonel Benton proceeded to
discuss the subject of Reforin.. With his
usual modesty, the ex-Senator so ys the pub
lic voice has turned to him to effect reform.

I have fully spoken of Legislative abu
ses at Washington. and the usurpation of
national legislation by a — band of intrusive
and high trading agents: There is anoth
er branch of abuse which requires attention
that of the unsurpations of elections by cau
cusses and conventions, which has also
grown up a sr•.w Powell, and now nearly
control all elections from President of time
United States down to the most inconsider
able county officer, and generally without re
gard to the popular will and with an eye to
their own advantage. "I cannot explore the
abuse which strikes at the foundation of all
elective governments, nor trace it through
all the States or the counties I can only
speak of the Presidential conventions, and
what I heard at Washington that sixty
thousand dollars were expended in the last
one at Baltimore in three houses in the en
tertainment of delegates ! of course to get at
their understanding through the medium of
their stomachs. Fasting and praying would
have been a .better preparation (or the dis
charge of their duties. fortunately neither
of tie:se three houses carried their man)—
The lot fell upon one for whom no money
had been expended to procure a nomination.
But that was an accident, and we have no
right to expect such gt;ed fortune again.--
President making has become a regular art
or trade follo•.ved by old politicfrtas, and at

interesting Discoveries in Persia.
We have had the plitnsure of listening to
a letter written in Persia to a gentleman
in this city, which lives an account of
some recent nod inotd ino st mg discoverie s
in that country. The writer is a scient fie
gentleman of the highest star:dul l !, ILI Amer
teal], and one whose position in Persia is a
pledge of the correctness of his details.
'Pile line between Persia and Turkey
fins not been d. fined with that exactot
which peace and security demand, and sol
diers have by both governments, been placed
upon the disputed territory to defend the
rights of Turkey and Persia. Aml for [natty
years the soldiers have been in the practice
of coming into collision. To avoid this
bloodshed,' and settle definitely the bonnda•
ry line between the nations, England and
Russia have induced Persia to consent to a
mixed commission, which should embrace
England, Russia. and Persia. That com
mission is now engaged in establishing the
line between Persia and Turkey: Col.
Williams. •ivell known to many Americans;
and a man of character and talent, is the
English commissioner.
Lt the prosecution of this work the com
missioners have come upon .the remains of
the ancient palace Shushan, mentioned in
the sacred books of. Esther and Daniel, to
gether with the tomb of Daniel, the Proph
et. The locality answers to the received
tradition of its position, and the internal ev
idence arising front its correspondence with
the description of the palace recorded in the
sacred history, amount almost to demonstra.
lion. The render can turn to Esther, chap,
1, v. 6, there he will read of a "pavement of
red, and blue, and white, and black marble
in that palace." That pavement still exists •
and, as described by Col. Williams, corres
ponds to the 'description .given thus in the
sacred history: And in the marble columns
dilapidated ruins, the sculptured and the re
mining• marks of greatness and 21nry that
are scattered around, the commissioners read
the exact truth of the record made by the
sacred penman.

Raising Pigs(
Raising pork, if made a prominent por
tion of a farmer's business, will bring, in as
much ready money, and produce as much
nett profit. as any one brunch of business.--
Breeding, pigs for market is profitable, and
those of the most approved kinds will always
meet with a ready sale at fair prices. It
was formerly thought that there was some
risk in attempting to raise pigs, for it was
frequently the case that a portion of the lit
ter would die when a few days old, and some
times the sow would eat a portion of them
as soon as there born. But since •book
farming" haTbrecome so common, remedies
have ben found fur both those evils, and
nog' there is no more risk in raising pigs
than in raising calves. The" pigs and some
times the sow dies from over feeding, and
by the use of improper food immedialely af
ter her accouchment. No milk or greasy
slop should he given three or four days.—
The (nod is a thin gruel of scalded Indian
meal dealt out in rather small quantities.—
When the pigs are a week old you may
feed on whatever your wish to give them,
arid as abundantly as you please.
A hog, requires both animal and vegeta
bk. food. arid when her appetite is not grat
ili.•d she will satiate it on her own offspring:.
A breeding sow should therefore be well
supplied with meat or fish of somekind with
her other fond, especially for a week or two
prior to the birth of the pigs. Regard these
rules and all risk of losing young pigs van-
