Benton's Speech— ‘The Old Settlers and the New Syuatters—Fre- mont for the Old Settlers—His probable Defeat om that issue. ‘We have had a large instalment of California Yand history to-day—in fact, the whole of it, from ‘the occupation of the country by the Spaniards, to the late war with Mexico; and who but Old Bul- lion is capable of such a lesson in Spanish? We have learned everything of the presidios, ranchos, haciendas, pucbios, missions, Captain Generals, Vicereys, and land grants from the first Spanish Governor of California, down to Michelterena, the last of the Mexicens Col. Benton pleads the plea of legality and validity, and the obligation of the ‘United States to contirm, as good and valid, the claims and titles descended from Spanish and Mexican authority; and is for the simplest means required to confirm these rights to the holders thereof. His speech, to-day, was the land history of California; and the detence of the ciaims of the = settlers, and holders of Spanish and Mexican titles Col. Fremont, at the last session, leaned the fame Way, though not to the same degree of libe- rality as Col. Benton. He did a very indiscreet ibing in committing himeelf either upon one side or the other, while the question of bis re-election ‘was pending. But he did commit himself to more extent in favorof the righis of the old settlers against the claims of the new squatters. And this, we apprehend, will defeat him. The squatters have the majority—a large majority at the polla— and in the California Legisiamre they are not with- out apotential influence Col. Fremont is a large fand holder in California, of lands purchased by bimself or agents from old setiers holding them under Spanish or Mexi titles. And, al though Colonel Benion, in his bill, which pro- vides that all such cluims shail be settled in the simplest form, exciudes the lands of Col. Fremont, and subjects therm co be carried up by appeal to the Supreme Court, he has moved too to late help Fre- mont. The cry has gooe out against him; the forty-odd candidates for the Semate have eaten him wp alive. The office of Senator from Celifornia is better than digging gold; and there are, perhape, not lees than forty politicians, some of them de- caved politicians before they went out, who went to California for the chances of returning to Con- gress. Of course the chances of Fremont against such a combination are slim enough; and, of course, they will make bim appear to the squatter interest as a monopolize’, under Spanish pretexts, of the United States public domain, to which all equatters have the right of preemption The question is a knotty question. We wish all decent and proper success to the squatters; but we hope that no Spanish or Mexican bora citizen of Califorsia will be ousted under any law of Con- gress from hie property, inherited trom the Spanish government or the Mx can government. There is an obligation m the Mexican treaty to protect the rights of the citizeos, acquired with the territory, agence Squatiers and against the speculators. ¢ think it 13 a good thing that Congress has the settlement of the question. [t is sufficiently re- moved from the squatter interest to be disiotere: ed; and discreet enough to provide against the imposition of fictitious Spanish titles. Wasurnorton, Jan. 3, 1851. No National Union Meetrng—No Unton Ticket for the Presidency. Statements have gone forth that a great Union jubilee is about to be held in Washington, on the 22d imetant. A great many honest Union demo- crate and whigs have favored. thej announcement, and letters bave gone forttr to all the leading newspapers in the ceuntry, inviting the people to favor the movement. A national jubilee, it was thought, can only strengthen the compromise pase- ed at the last session, and strengthan the ties which bid the North and South, the East and Weet, of this great contederacy, The thing, however, did sot take as well as at first supposed. [t was soon perceived that en under current of poli | craft was at work to use the whole inove ment as a meang of promotion, and for the csteblishr.ent of polrti¢al connections, with a view to furvre combinations altogether diatinct from the object now ontemplated by the friends of the constivvtion and the Union. have reason to believe that the leading compromise men, such as Cess, Clay. are not ia favor of the jubilee ‘oe the it is called; fearing that the edmixtur wouldoaly hart the Union cavse, produce new aifficulties and troubles {i Is aeemed best that no convention should be held, but that each community, large and «inal!, should encourage withia iteowa bosom, obedience ‘o the law, and attachment and loyalty to the union of the States.

Casting my eye in that tionto see the cause, | observed tall form and golden colored plume of General Scott, near the centre table in the middle of the room, and a crowd was pressing around him to tender him the greetiags of the day. A little farther down the room was seen Harry Clay, alsosurrounded by a crowd, to whom he was bowing and smiling, in his own kind ani plea- sant manner. | did not attempt to speak to either, on account of the throng by which they were sur- rounded; but in my heart { wished them as happy , and as many returas of it, as any other person in the room. I upon each of those names as destined to gild the brightest pages of our history—one in the military departmeat; the other in the civil. Leaving the President’s, I called upon “ Tom, the wagon boy,” as the westeri: people love to call the Secretary of the Treasury. The avenue in front of his door was Hocaged with carriages, and the rooms were filled. ist waiting for an oppor- tunity to tender ium the good wishes of the season, I divined the cause of his unbounded popularity in the west. Although so many persons were claim- ing his attention, he had some pleasant remark for each oue that addressed him. When I was pre- sented to him, to my remark, that we all wished to call on our Secretagies on New Year’s day, he replied: “Oh, yes, and particularly the Secretary of the Treasury, who has the managing of Uncle Sam’s purse,” adding “indeed, he is some pumpkins, when he bas Uncle Sam’s eon in hia pocket.” If we believe the report of a goodly number of ci zens, who live in Uncle Sam’s territories, he issome pemekie, independent of his money. I have eard him called the black prince, and prince of the blood, by persons wishing to express admira- tion of his qualities. I do not iike these terms. Prince seems to me to be a word which belongs exclusively to Europe—therefore unsuited ia its ap- ication to distinguished persons of the United tates. De Tocqueville says we Americans can coin a word when an event oceurs in our country to which the language of the eld world will not ap- ply. [have no need of coining a word, for I tiad a phrage already coined which embodies precisely what [ would say of him—he is “ One of the sovereigas.”” It is expressive of that nobility of sentiment and talent, which is supposed to belong to govereigns, and it also indicates that he possesses that social quality which induces him te commingle with the masses in a manner that stamps him emphatically, one of the sovereign people. Mrs. Corwin is a pleasant, unassuming lady, whose amiable manner wine the friendship of all who visit her. I was presented by her ta, Mrs. Smith, of Baltimore, a cousin of hers ; and if the face be a true index to the heart, all the generous and kindly qualities of our nature have their abode in that lady’s bosom. After paying our respects to the family, we were regaled with refreshments in an adjoining roon ; but, I presume the greatest treat to the young bachelors who called on the raging of the Treasury, was a smile from the rosy lips, or a giance from the merry dark eye, of Miss Corwia, eldest daughter of the Secretary. She has the countenance of her father, from which the same merry, fun loving epirit which characterizes him, seems to peep forth I next called on the Secretary ef War. He beiog a widower, no lady presided at his mansion, but his own manner of receiving visiters was 30 agreeable, that none seemed to feel the want of woman's emile. Should Mr. Conrad choose to look around him, he will have no difficulty in findieg some fair lady who will be most happy to take charge of his household. As | was entering his mansion, I met on his door step, @ young friend, who said: “* Are you going to cali on Mr. Conrad??” | replied I was; and she ex- claimed ; * Oh, | am enchanted with him.” After seeing him, | was not surprised at her admiration ; his cordiality and courtesy make all who approach | him regard him as a friend. I there met Sir Heary | Buiwer and ley, also Mr. Crittenden. The last cali was on the Secretary of State. If Dan Webster is pre-eminent as a statesman, Mrs. Webster may claim pre-eminence in the world of fushion, for her lady-like departmeatand the grace- ful ease with which she receives visiters. It was Jate in the dev when | called, and she must have been fan ued; still, she had a smile, with some pleasent rema:k, for ali that approached her. { had designed calling on ail the secretaries, but when I left Mr. Webster's, it wes too late ; so I returned home, with the intention of seeing them some other time, and I will give you my impressions of them.
