Mr. Benton on th Proviso,?? A greit
<l?? 1!iis been s iid about 3/V. BentoVa posi
ion on lhe W.l.not Proviso, and as it is
u<u il in violent pirty contests, m >ny misentalious
have been made. The
following extract from one of his lata
speeches shows, in a co idensed form,
what a-e the real sentimenta of the iVis
-sou: i Servitor in regard to the proviso
qu?*Niion:
"With respect to the character of the
proviso, if it. should be prescribed by Cong
ess for any new territory, I think it will
emnin ju*t what it has been for sixty
years?a consti utionnl provi-o, made in
pursuance to the constitu ion; and that,
being so avidt-, it is binding upon all lvw
hi ling ci izens, and that ;ts resistance bv
foco and arma, militarily, would be high
treason against the Uni ed <S'tates, and
purrtshahle by death under the law of the
I ind. Wit h respect to the expediency of
the act, there h no ncce.-wity for it, aud
there tireprudentialr?nMnwwhy ;{, should*
not be pasBed. California and New Mexico
are now free from slavery both by
law and in fact. Ah a general proposition,
unnecessary lawn should not be passed}
but if it H passed, it is an empty provi
ion, having uo practical effect wnat?
ever." r V
