From the Correspondence of the News. Letter fom Nissouri. ST. Loms, (Mo.) MAU 16, 1850.. With us Spring still wears the mask o Winter.

In the begin1ug ef the week diver !s of Cholera occurred-upwards of'tien n all; and so-gensitve: is the publie -mit he fresh impressions of last'year's mela i ly history, the announcement was sui v- It to create a' universal panie. Col. Benton is politically doomed in 1i uri-indeed, what is his present position fore the country? - Whatever mist an acertainty at first clouded the probable re ult of his "appeal,"are rapidlypassingaway nd the end begins, to ie -clear to all. The ihsurdity of th:kt novel proceeding is at last It i- understo6d as- a Charlatan arti Le w frthe inirentr would have cover i4h disolkdience. IQlie 1tituians IAgisfature, and dee.-ed the people into be Ing misled by his sellish purpose. The war beiween the servant and his naster has re alted in the annoying ridicule common to such encounters. Moreover, the Col's. late cottrgin the Senate, and the odour in whici he's5 held at the Capital, have conspired td augment his degr'd-ition at home. Few dis interested mind<4 but regard the sands of it Senatorial career as nearly run. Missouri i tired of an arrogant dictator; the dignity 6 the State requires vindicadion from his per sonal abuse. lii% contumacy has becon treason to his duty: his menaces, continued and unqualified, cliallenge the exercise of the sovereigni power he rtpudiates. The true, minded Demoer.ev, stung into action, are a lenth aroused, and are upon him with all th ldetermined resentment that the basest ingrat itude for piist favors can provoke. "Ol Bullion, or 'Billion"-as was his earlier sou iquet!-has been weighed in the b1:dance and found wanting, his ays till not be loug in the land. So run the mysterious word of propliecy. "On the very wall he invoked betwee hainseltfand Iis former friends, the finger o Fate has written his doom, and the de 'litch " lie du- for others isredestined as h own b1urial phice. le may-chfe, aid villif and threatei, as is his- woritbut though were an Ajax in strength, against the s to Of opposition about to overwhelmn hime must prove impotent as the burly Greek wi lu elefying the lig:tning. The Press, the iectable portion of it, is arrayed agaist hji its banners are unfurled in t'ie bright cause i ibversion, and the nighty artillery of t; Ittluence thunders along the path of the eru e.

A fixed determination and united ic in, -like aL'-er bullet," will immolate fin i the unequ-l contest. His design is o o create divison in the Democratic v, miid thius surrender the State, iinto the ht~ iofthe V igs ! A letter written to a co u. uin d1 cti on the eve' of our niiae etioni,~iidhichu fimding' its~ av into the public prnts have since circulte'd fair and4 wide', disceloses thfe whole 'sche of the intended treauchiery. And that niefadious schemne actedlly pna into pract ice in the leec tion refe'rred to, two distinuct Demo ittie tickets having beca nminiated, one' of :em; the grand " Benton test," was the me: s of ~sinig to the party the ndministration the ity, of wuich they h-id m:intainied quiet p sessiuon for sevendl years.

The example of the arei tri-. ter of Lindenwald is about to be followied. Unfortunately, however. even if Blenton i os sessed the slight of hand dexterity off the little 31agiciani in performances fftitisort, it is ditlieuht t,o play otl'the same tiel twice. With its first exhibition the secret becomes nmanikst, and the public maind enlightened :ind prepared foi-its reiteration, thei power of the.enchamnter is'lost forever. - Mr. Calhoun's decease created a pirofountd - sensation of regret among those of o ir comn mnunity who appre'ciated the man; and who of thom did not ? Some, perchance matny ! But narrow prejudice, and unscrupulous selt fishness, make complexions to suit thleir ownl motives, andr portrav character everi in the mnirage light of their- own principles. They S hatve no synmpathy with the good, because they cannot believe in n'disinterested pur pose, aii no just appreciationi of the truly great i that tief mistrust the smeans by which greatness is achieved. The detrae tion and defamation that sp 'ng front suech .souures, as they Gijled to i:npcd th;e care.-r of *Carolina's patriut:'asge in 1ife, cannot abus. his memory now that lhe is dead. The col= umn, of his fame will rise above the hori zon of..fatpre ages, and the rising and the setting suhiof time will' reflect it, in' all the glor 6f unsullied 'brightness. Not the Pe caliar genets of his .political cretid, but his moraul character as a Statesman, illumninated '.. - by transcendent intellectawill be 'the broauestion submitted to posterity~ And ploud, piroud, indeed, may .every loyal Carolinian be inthe submission of such an is. sue. There can be no prouder.boaof Caro lina's sons thani that, despite soimie diftference:' of opinion amoiig them, they all admired venerated, andt loved John C. Calhoun. It 'the nature of things it is scarcely possible that such a mani will ever agaiti bless them with his sincere attachment, and etinoble them b3 his shining virtues. In life he forgot toallk the interests of ambition for them, and died a devoted martyr to the cause that iins neon est his aR'eetions.

GREAT Iss OF IFE.-A despatch fron t Louis,28th ult.to the Baltimore Sun, gives he subjoined particulars of another teirrible teamboat disaster: A frightful steamboat accident took place this evening. The steamer St. Loris col lapsed two flues, three miles below the city, at quarantine. A frightful scene ensured lie shrieks of the wounded and dying were most heart-rending. From all the information which could b)e gathi&ed in the confusion, it appears, that ;5 lives, were lost, and 40 persons wounded. About half the number of persons sealed will ertainly die. The suf'erers mostly were eck passengers. CABNE~T MlEETNG.-The Baltimore Sun of Friday says th-tt a despatch from Wash ngton, announces that a Cabinet- Council was held on Wednesday, at which it was re olved to hold the Cuban authorities respon ibfle for any treatment the American resi lents may. receive. A special messenger is to be sent out there forthwi i from the State Department, to look after the interests of American citizens. OBITUA RY. DuraIni'L this life, at his residence, in tis Ton nFriday venin t Pedultimo, Capt4 The deceased had beei for about two weeksa somecwhat indisposed, bid a day or two before his death seemed bsetter. and was well enough, in coampany with a friend, to visit lhis saw mtill, about. ten muiles fromt home. Hie returned late in the afternoon, andl shortly after. tea, was suddenly stricken down by the hand of death, Hie diedl o'f an affe-ction of the heart. of this town on the 1st April 1788, and was raised in the District. His father, Mr. JosErna Asos, died whilst his son was an infant, and his early training was left tos his pious mother, whose maiden name was.Bnaowx, a lady of strong mind and excellent qualities. The meanas of the fitaily denied to the soan any thing amore thana mere conunion English education, a result to be lamencted, for if his high natur-al talents lhad becn unproved by- eduention, there is little risk in say ing that he would have nmade a strong and deep implressioni on the age in which he lived. With his limaited education however, improved by read ig and close observation, Capt. ADDIsoN rmn-j deredi himself a prominent manm and highly useful! citizen. Hi~s mindl was eminently practical andj thais quality was signally exhibited in all his alTairs.I His maemory was unusually retentive, mnid to a~ strong and vigorous judgment hit. united. great' tirmuness anal energy. During the War of 1812, through the kinad interference of the late Mr. C'u~noeN, he ob-j inimed the commission of 1st Lie,'tenanzt in the U. S. Army ; was stationed foar a year or morel with his Regiment nlear CharhIt-ston, and for theu reater part of that time, acted as Adjutant ~f~ the Regiment. In the army he commanded the4 highest respeect and eonfidencne. lie was asso-! inated with zmany Oflicurs from this State, in the -ame Regiment, who are knowin to have enter-i tained the strongest attachment for him. Tfhe late Capt." GEORGE BeTL.EI, the late Capt. HENRY] Tarr.ox anid the lHon. .Jetias UnmILre, of thaisj State, were in the army wvith hmim andl were hisj warm frienids. S~aoon after he left the armmy Campt.l ADDmSOs married the excellent lady who has ,eur-l vived him; they had four chil'dren, three of~ whom are living.I For more than thirty years the decasedl was] one of the Magistrates of the District, and no man ever fulfilled the duties: of his office, with' moore honesty and fidelity.; whilst he exercisced its! powers with firmness, in no instane dial ho ever' neourage litigation, or use his ollice for. thep r os-s of injustice or ojpresion. - .Je :also held~ ce ofier of Coroner for muany years anal was a' 'ood offic-er. In all tie rlations of. life Capt.I Arnomsovwas exemplary a'nd faithful. . lie lived miore~than thirty years-.irs the town where he1 died, and cominandedi universal confidence and. esteem, Hie was rcemarkably- useful in the .comn mnunity ; numay survive hinm whlo remember with egratitudec his kindness and good counsel. In ies the cause of morality, good order .anal education Iways found a frnend.' He amassed a considern Ie fortune by his, prudence and industry, and his hanse was the abode of a generous hospitality. In 1831, Capt. Runmsox, united himself with he aptist Church of this place, of which lie re:m ed an active and cornsistent. mnember .until his death. In all thetneasures of the Charch.for romioting the cause of virtue, lhe took a prons~ ent-and liberal part. UliKmremnains - were interred' oi'the Saliii orning after is-death in the burying.ground of he Baptist Church, and the vrleconeour-s ,f our citizens wich folloivrd c. rentsis tc ic tomb, evinced the estnsation, in whiba h was held by his ueighcbors and the econmunhat enerally. That-coamiaunity afh~avejlost :ne f.inore distingaushd taients, butizasiararl~ ost a purer nian or a mpr-c useful citizen. lIf has left a bereaved widow and. ekildren and large circle of fripnds to mourn his-loss. An. eat as is that loss to them, their grief, it it hoped,ill be soot hedby the consolations of th:r religion, which supported him in life and in death nd the joys of which heis]ow sharing in urer region above. *G W(.
