A few years ago, Senator Benton, in one of his
speeches, made the following prediction:


81 That man is now living with beard on his face
(tbough 1t may not be ID who will yet see Amer-
army in Ireland, and American General in the
the streets of London"


This thought by many TO be little ,ria at the
time, and SO were the following comments, which
made upon it by the New Orleans Courier but
the time may not be far distant when we shall witness
the realization of the prediction of Benton, and learn
the business of the conclusions of the Courier.
The next war between the old mother and her CT
derant-now gantess-dauehter will in all probabl-
ity see this prophecy fulfilled and prove it to be no
empty boast. That war-and come it must-wIll be
o war of principle, of republican right against Brit
ish whig and tory falsehood; will be struggle of
the right divine" TO govern wrong, and forever
crush the vox populi, which even now speaks in
Great Britain with portcntous meaning. The hith-
crto victorious chief and representative of the British
oligarchy. has declared that they must wage big
war, in oil future conflicts; shall, therefore, be
compelled to put forth all our strength and meet force
to force and while our euemy-the arch enemy of
| the rights of man-vainly endeavors to light the
torch of discord and of ruin on sacred spil we
shall plant the tree of liberty theirs They will
find the tables turned upon them for while invad-
ing army would be met in these United States with
bayonets, bullets bales, blunderbusseS, guns and
thunder and every inch IT earth (as well as water,
salt and fresh) be disputed by invncibe men-men
who know their rights, and knowing dare maintain
them at the time, shall let loose the justly
disrontented spirits of our crafty enemy upon their
oppressors who now grind them TO the DUST and long
for such opportunity to place themselves in the po-
sition for which nature intended them. Col Benton
then made no idle boast but on the contrary, spoke
as becomes his reputation far seeing statesman.
An American army would be received in the British
Islands as deverers and brothers, by millions of her
majesty's loring subjects, whose masters would in
daring, for the third time to hosttes against
Republican America, find the last effort of expiring
| tyranny.
