 posed of persons friendly to Monarchical
 rather tban free governments. not only
 powe'iess but rddicalously abortiye. The 1 People have nursed us in our infancy. and we have reason to believe they will not desert us in onr riper years. To show how entirely feeble and fruitiess their attempts i sc ;aj;ise is have been, vt viii here men ton the fact, that at the time The Party commenced their war Of extermination upon us, we had but I50 subscribe ers--we l noao have a subscription list of 5Q3 sub N'S' iiio HTS tdHSH Ht uo1 iudl tuG tH- nl'ty of snch men as Fulton. Ashley, I've would here mention the name of Wood ruff, but he has appreciated so much of late, and fallen so far below par, that he IS now considered q perfect noJody--a 6tdnh] ac. &c. is much more to he desr- ed, and certainly much more profitable, than their .fi,iendsAap.
 The Gazette was foolish enough, even but short time ago, to make a similar as- sertion to the one made in lS30--that the feopie would withdraw their support, and as a natural consequence our political death must follow. Past observation has shown, however, that the Editor of that print, IS neither prophet himself. nor the son of prophet--and farther, that he is neither the son of Solomon, nor Is he any kin to tlis Solomon family. If he predi- cates his assertion upon the fact of the withdraw al from our subscription list of the name of certain cheating Yanbee i've have no allusion to Col Ashley--we have reference to the Iaaiaa Department in tho south ) what will he say, when we tell him, tiat so far from others following the exam. pie, we have received 15 new subscribers since his name, like his heart, has been died in Jiack. We are candidates for pat ronage, but not at the sacrifice of our de- liberate and fixed opinions and notions of things--we are our own man, and have set ap, and 4ciH act for, ourselves. If any are dissatisfied at our course, or dislike the complexion of any remarks which we have already or may hcreafter make, we are perfectly willing they should withdraw from our subscription !st-if they want q tool of an Editor one who has no opinions or politics of his own, they must seek him in the person of the Editor of paper called the Gazette. For the support which has been so bouGtifully bestowed upon us by our friends and patrons, we return our sincere and grateful acknowledgements.
 We are the same now, that we were two years ago-except that we have two years more of experience, and are perhaps, little better acquainted with the l" out-go- ihgs and in-comings'' of The Party-and of course, will preach the same doctrines and advocate the same principles. we then did and support the same man for Con- gress, to the promotion of whose cause we proudly lent our feeble aid, al the last election, should he again present himself for public favor-in fine, we shall always be found advocating, so far as we know them, the Peopie's measures, and the pre- tensions of the Peoples men, in opposition to Party s whose touch Is pollution and whose embrace Is death.
 Before we conclude, 1t would perhaps, be we'll enough to remind our patrons, that we cannot well meet the engagements of an expensive establishment like ours, pay our journeymen, purchase paper, link, &c. without MONEY. We hope they will promptly discharge our demands against them. either by remit,ing the amount 10 the Editor, or by payment to his several Agents.
 We were not aware, until last evening, that Arkansas, since the fourth of March last, has had neither Governor nor Secre- tho ,ce.or. of fba corp,or i,av-
