00L. BENTON% SPEOECIII.
The speech. delivered by Col. Benton at the
Buchanan ratification meeting in St. Louis,
on the 21st, has been published.---It is: long
and-able; and-marked-by-thenen d-character--
isties of Col, Benton's oratory. He hatidles
President Pieroe and his administration with:
out gloves, but unreservedly Commits himself
to the support of Buchanan. He goes ovt7r
the history' of the, legislation, which "ended
withthe passage of the compromise measures,
of 1850, and shows that "the commencement
of the session of Cdtkiress 18534 Was a po
litical millennium.- Universal harmony pre;
veiled. Abolition agitation was dead—extinct
under public opinion and the lairs . of the land
which had settled it_ everywhere, and left not.
an-inch-of-territory on-whioli-the-queition--Of
slavery Could be ritised." He thus speaks of
the motives for :the repeal of.-the Missouri
Compromise, which disturbed this harmony,
and has produced "jealdusies;divisions, ani
ttibeities, seetional hate,:and danger to to the
Uniori" t . •
-the scheme_of,those-whocontrived
the deed, and the hard: work - they had in
.of its subsequent champions
ttai „. It woe a plot for
political power, batched by. politioians un
known 'to the people, and intended to make
Preiodents. by, welding the Slave Statesinto
a unit upon theslavery queetiMi...governing
the nomination - by 'the two-thirds rule;. and
iracuring. from the Free States, by dint of
Federal patronage; the;-twenty.eine votes
which .werdneeessary to carry - the election.
_ Indemnity_ in public offices was openly
promised- to those . who would betrak their
constituents,a-promise. which has beeuittith,
fully kept; -and the' only one of all that it
.made which has been kept by.tuis adminis,
tration. Witness the violated pledges-about
the Pacific railroad, the reduction of :duties,
and d louglist .uf ethers. 'Flintily, the deed
was , done-.=the deed from whicli jlr. Calhoun
recoiled; bet :the' harvest has not been reaped.
;The Pnisident, and file-teader- fdok the field
for the, reward they
_both_ entered the lists at
the Cincinnati Convention, • and were both
ntiserably defeated—repudiated by their otrif
parts -the first instance of a President so re- I
pudiated in the Nattily of our country."
,Col. Benton speaks of the Cincinnati Con-'
vegtioa in the moat withering terms of. con=
tempt. 'Heave of whathe - saw there:
i• I found a'garrison of office holders Inside
of the Convention,•and s beseiging army Of
the game gentry on the outside of it. Packed

Pe. Straw Alelegates were there, coming
from the - States, which could give no Demo-
Oratio_vote—Members of_Congress _were_there
although forbid-by their duties froin being at
such . place. A cohort of office holders
were there, political eunuchs in the federal
:system,_incapable_efAoting_tel . _the_entallest_
federal office, yet , sent there by the adminis
tration to - impose. a President upOn the peo
plea
Such was the composition of nearly one
half of the whole convention = custom-houee
officers, - postmaaters, salaried clerks, packed
delegates, straw delegateh, political eunuchs,
members of Congress, district attorneys, fede
ral marshals. The place in which they met,
and which had been provided by a "packed ad
ministration committee, was worthy of the
meeting. .It was a sort of den; approached
by a long narrow passage, barricaded by three
doors, each dOor guarded by • armed bodies,
with orders to knock down any person' that'
approached withont a ticket from the corm.,
mit - tie—and a special order to be prepared
with arms to repulse the Missouri , delegation
which muse to' vote , for Buchanan—a repulse
which they atienintd, and got themselves
knocked , down to/ft.tiwinPleil under foot .
This den had no windows_ by which people
.ottld look in, armee, or the' light of the inn
eater - only a row of ,glase like a steamboat
skylight, thirty-five feet above the floor. It
was'the nearest-representation et-, the-. black.

has,Rver been ao
,repildiated before. He evi•
Jently thinks, however,' that Buchanan's
flamination-was brought about, by _a_ miraoie,
for he says
' "Le_i it not be forgotten that the place
ecned this nomination,—the place convenient
to the solid men of the Country ; but that can
not be. relied upon to save future nominations.

•
Colr:Benton - nlludes, - to the I'mpjeitty - of
Pierce's cabiint . in very contemptuous terms.
Mr.'Marcy he says, permits others to aomi
nate in his department, and -publicly agrees
to, what he privately cOndeutos.• 'There is' too

Under the latter Goad the Colonel denoun
ces the temporizing policy of the administra

Benton proceeds to discuss the foreign policy
of the nthainistration. After alluding to he
failure-to get _up. _war___with=Spain. on 'the
Blind: Warrior affair, the Africanization
.of
Cuba, and the Ostend Conference, he says :
By that time the chances for a war with
Spain had run out, and seemed to be Toni for
ever; when thozhaparral government of Walk
er offered a new prospect .more encouraging
than the other. It was simply-to acknowl
edge the government In the ohapparral, let
aid flow to Walker, a foot hold to be • estab

conquest of Cutati be made by the' United

Exciting. Debate in---the„.Senaie.
. Tue,44,-.litly, I.—The Senate adopted -
resolution offered by Mr. Cass, calling on" the,
President for information in reference .to the
high handedhcts of Goverpor Stevens in Wash
ington Territory. Mr.. Cellattier submitted a
minority, report from the Committee - on Terri-
Rifles on the Kati - cias - 7 - question. - The `rest - of
tbe session was spent in debating this matter.:
In the House Mf. Barclay moved re.oonsidera-
tion of the vote - bj4. - which the Kansas State
bill was rejected. He indicated Ithat he bad
changed his mind and would vote, for it.. Mr.
Houston moved to 14 'the motion on the table,
but pending this motion the,report of the Kan•
sae Commissio came up as a privileged lugs-
tion,.and was received and -read.-: - It is---very
voluminous and occupied the rest of the day.
Wednaday, July 2.—The, Senate' resumed
the debate on the Nonsas pill antra good deal
ocangry - discussion"ensued, of which the fol-
•
lowing will. silo* ate . spirit :*
Wilson, of klass. moved to strike out
all after the enacting clause and. insert, that
__alllitets_passed by the-Legislature-of Kansas or
any assembly actin as such be, and .the same
are abrogated and declared veld and-of.ite ef
fect."
• .
Air. Crittenden said it seemed to him that.
some'explanation , -was :-required: Witt- this
remedy fur
-the disturbances' in. Kansas come
plete and entire'?
Mr. Wilson rephd that the bill, in his judg
it /
meat,' was desigue to make . Kansits a slave'
State. As the rep rt just made to the House
;shows, 4,96011i5s uriana_forced OEI the peo•
.ple of that Territor , a Legislature which had
inhumanpoised and`unobriitian ettactments,
and which_ had occasioned _all the ._troubles
there. His proposition was designed-es- pre-
liaiitiary.to, -other legislation to piotect... the ,
people in'their rights and punish all vielatious'..
.
of the laws of the country. '
--MrAVeller--The-proposition-simply--is-to
repeal all the !awe and settle the dispute
,by
physical force. • •
Mr. Toombs, of Georgia,—That's a good
way—nobody objects to that. • -
Mr., Seward would with the greatest pleas- -•
ure„vote-forlilr. Wilson'is amendment. Thu
present bill can have ne-oiher tendency and '
etreot than to confirm the *acute of the( ! bj eg! ,
iit the 'pistons* - nf the - kW abrogating' the Mi a
,souri Comprothise.aud forming a sieve &Rte
out of Kneel's.. There is nu cede, there are
no laws, there is no legal society in KatIHIL:4,
other than in.the orgauio act of 1854. The
government of that territory is 'a usurpation
and a tyranny, and there law) legal, as 'there
is no moral obligation to treat it with the least
‘respect. The House, more true to freedom'
khan the Senate, sent a ,comanission thither, '
awl the report made establishes those facts
beyond all question.. The day for comprotui-•
see has ended.-
-
' Mr: ToOmbs•-:-I'm glad of it.
Mr. Seward—And so am 1.. We henceforth
-take our-stand on-the Constitution. •

.
• Mr.• rittendeu regretted exceedingly to,
hear Mr. Seward say lite day of cow 114 4. norws

hot moment of time, provided they °Quid pre
