 In the Gazette of the 18th inst. the editor has endeavored, by insinuation, to cast reflection upon my character. Standing in the relation 10 the public that he does-being the editor of pa per patronized by those in power, it is perhaps my duty 10 give ar absolute de- nal 10 his assertion. As 10 William E. Woodruff, he is too contemptible, too far sunk beneath the dignity of d man. to deserve any notice whatever at the hands of any gentleman. The misdi- rected letter of which he speaks, re- suited from the hurry of the moment. caused by business, and not from the cause which he has iDtimated.

 sIR-sVhether the people of the Uni ted States are indebted to the political precepts of Montesquieu, or to the ope- rations of the British constitution, for that great political maxim, that the three departmentsof government should be kept separate and distinct, is mat ter of indifference to the people of Ar kansas in judging of the political ope- fatIons of their own government. It is sufficient for us, that its practical ope- fatlon in the fedora! and state govern ments for the last fifty years, proves abundantly that almost the whole sci ence of civil liberty is reduced to that

OBITU "A KY.

JOHN REDMoN, Esq. of Batesville, is no more. He died on the morning of the 25th, after painful illness of r days, which be bore with Christian fortitude.- Mir. Redmon was born in the State of K en- lucky, in the month of September, l799, and emigrated to this Territory in the year ls24 He was appointed Clerk of the Circuit Court for the county Of lnde- pendence in 1926, and has since been twice elected by the people to that office. In 1928 he was appointed Receiver of Public Monies for the Lawrence land dis trict: Both of which offices lie held at the time of his death, having discharged them with entire satisfaction, both to the pub lie and general government. In the death of Mr. Redmon, the northern portion of Arkansas, and particularly the county of Ind pendence, have sustained loss which time alone can fill mp. To mind of the first order, capable of grasping any sub- jeet, was combined business habits rarely to be met with in any man. Upright and scrupulously honest in all his transactions, he had gained the confd dence of all who had any dealings with him-so strictly attentive to business, that his promise was a sufficient guarantee that any thing en- trusted to him would be faithfully attend ed 10. It would be folly 10 attempt to de- scribe the fre-side grief of the most ami able and aifeetionate wife, and two sweet and interesting children. They have, however. that consolation which buoys up the Christian in every trial. He died re- lying upon the merits of blessed Saviour

4 communication, bearing tlre sigma sure of q < ssCitizen of Hempstead county,'' has been received, attentvely read, and carefully laid aside for the use of the au- thor. We have for many years been ae- qnainted with the officer referred to in the communication, and have ever had reason to believe him to be faithful Tn the dis charge of his public duties, and too high minded to be guilty of any of the charges alleged against him.
The Arkansas advocate., 1832-09-05

We again copy from the Gazette, an advertisement put forth by Goueraor Full ton, and which, as part of the public printing, should have been sent to this office.
 The Governor appears determined to err from the path of reetitade. Tn the first instance, we were willing to attribute his course to ignorance, but having said enough to remove that veil from his mind his continuance in attempting to defraud sls out ofwhat is legally ours, can only be attributable 10 wilful violation of what he must know to be his duty.
