WASHINGTON CITY: MONDAY sececeseeeesApril 26, 1858, Norticx to Memvers or Concress.—Members of Congress can bave their speechits printed with neatness and dispatch, at the Star office Price, for 5,000 copies of a sixteen-page speech, one cent and a half each; for 10,000 or more, one cent each. SPiKIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Intelligencer of this morning hasa letter from Dr. May, giving an interesting account of the last hours of Col. Benton and of the nature and progress of the painful malady which ter- minated his life. This disease, it seems, was cancer of the rectum. Dr. May, after mention- ing the perfect calmness and resignation with which Col. B. received the intelligence of his approaching dissolution, says: “* | ascertained that in the intervals of my visits to him at this time he repeatedly went to bis work and corrected the proof-sheets, which he was in the habit of receiviny at short periods from bis publisher, Mr. Appleton; and I recollect on one occasion, when! did not suppose he could stand, he suddenly arose from his bed, and, in face of all remonstrance, walked to his table at some distance off, and correctedband finished the conclusion of another work on which he was en- waged and of which he hed shortly before re- seived the proofs from New York. His uncon- uerable will enabled bim to do it; but, when lone, he was so exhausted | had to take the pen from bis hand to give it the direction. “* As soon as he recovered from the immedi ate danger of this attack he labored, as he had done for years before, constantly at his task. Rising by daylight, and writing incessantly with the exception of the hour be usually devoted to lis afternoon ride on his horse, the ellect of which though I feared from the position of his disease, be yet seemed to think was of benefit to him. “ Andat this labor he continued from day to day until within about a week before his death, when no longer able to rise from weakness he wrote in his bed, and when no longer able tu do that dictated his views to others ‘** Tbus it may be traly said of him he literally « died in harness,” battling steadily from day to day with the most formidable maiady that afilicts humanity ; his intellect unclouded and his iron ‘will sustaining him in the execution of his great national work almost to the last moment of his existence.’’ The Union is devoted mainly to the discus- sion of Kansas matters. ~- ee IG.

U7 Havre de Grace, Md., demauds that the National Foundery shall be located at that point. Why does'nt Jackson City put in ber claim ? Too Many Fripays.—There being fifty-three Fridays from the first of May, 1857, to April 30, 1858, some of the weeklwjournals published on Friday announce that no papers will be issued from their offices this week. Tus Fisnerizs —The Elkton Democrat says, ‘with respect to the fisheries, the season, so far, has been a poor one on all the headwaters of the Chesapeake. But few shad or herring have been caught in the Susquehanna, the Northeast, the Elk, the Bohemia or the Sassafias. Booxsr Deap.—W. M. Booker, who was shot in an affray with B. H. Palmer, at Springfield, about two weeks azo, died on Saturday morning last. Palmer was killed atthe time. The qua - Tel arose from rival claims to the command of a volunteer company for Utah. LF” We observe in the papers of Loudoun and Frederick counties, Va, that the voters intend requiring of those who may be chosen clerks of the courts that they shall perform the duties in person, and not by deputy mainly, and are de- manding pledges of the candidates to that effect. Aw Eptrertar Cuance—Thurlow Weed, Esq., has resumed the editorial conduct of the Albany Evening Journal, Mr. Samuel W ilkeson, {the gentleman to whom be sold in 1*35) being compelled, by iil health, to retire from the edi- torial profession We ditfer toto calo from Mr. Weed in polities, yet we recognize in him a man of commanding talents and sagacity equal to that of perhaps any other person, at thi« time, on the tripod of the American newspaper press. The renewal of Lis connection with the Albany Evening Journal will, therefore, probably very soon place that paper at the Lead of the army of Republican par- ty presses 177 Capt. Brown, of the ship Black Prince, of Boston, (previously announced as having put into Rio on the 27th of February,) writes to the owners that when (he vessel was 13 days out, in consequence of some ditticulty, he ordered one of the men to be put in irons. ‘The man on nearing this drew bis knife from his belt and stabbed Capt. B. in two places. The would-be-assasin, with others, however, was eventually put in irons, but it being soon after dixcovered that a concerted plan to make further trouble was on foot, Capt. Brown made for Rio with al! possible dispatch, and landed seven of the mutineers at that port. The ship then left for home on the 3d of March. Capt. Brown, though wounded severely, is not considered in a dangerous con- dition. Tue Purcn Verxon.—On the 6th of April a contract was signed by Mr. Wash- Sagton, which obligated him to transfer Mount Vernon to the association, on its compliance with the following terms; viz : The payment of two bundred thousand dollars for two hundred acres of land, including the mansion and landing place, and above all, the tomb. Egbteen thonsand dollars to he paid on closing the contract. the remainder of the sum, in four bonds, payable in yearly instalments, with the permssion, after payment of the first bond. to pay to Mr. Washington any amount of the bal- ance due, in sums of not less than five thousand dollars, which sums will be credited to the asso- ciation, in this manner lessening the interest. The title of the estate to be viven on payment of the principal and fnterest, and the privilege also granted of obtaining I pepseresenee on thirty days’ notice, at any time the association may be ready to furmish the entire purahase money.

Inconsequence of prolonged Indixposition, Mr. Samuel Wilkinson has retired from the Al bany Evening Journal, baving sold ont bis in- terest to Mr. Thurlow Weed, who will now resume the position of chief editor of that paper. Capt. William J. Belt, for many ran cer in the U.S Navy, died at bis residence in Calvert county, Maryland, on the 2d inst., in the 65th year of hisave.
