We thought that we knew them llso--but t is very easy to .be ,,,s;,;s 4 regar. 10 ise opinions of great men. Fe did think that the cen sis.cnt Delegate was perfectly eontented with the appointment of TAomas I. Esk- ridge as Judge, and with his continuance in the olice-butwe suppose that we were mistaken. We do not believe, now, that the Delegate had any hand in noniiiii't- inc hin, or else we believe that there is no man in the Territory equally competent and faitlfiil' with thai notable nonresident expounder of the law-or else We believe that it is .sno fault' of tie Delegate, that he retains his office. In short, We believe any thing about t, which the Delegate re- ouires us to believe. The s.sentimentsn of the Delegate cannot nave changed. Rot at all; he Is always consistent--and it was precisely the same principle which prompt ed him to obtain the appointment of the nonresident T.s& RIpGE--and to disap- prove ttlIls apPe;s,sess apPe:;;.ss,sess of the nonresident LACEY, the equally talented and honest man. May the Delegate always be as well able to prove himself consistently immaculate, as he has been ia this case, and may he al- ways he able to find persons as ready to believe as we have been.
 STATE GovERNMENT.--A bill has been reported in the House of Representatives, and read twice, requiring tho Marshais oi Arkansas and Michigan to take Census of those Territories, during the coming Summer and Fall. The object of this bill IS to ascertain whether they contain suffi- eient population to entitle them to admission into the Union.
 This would seem to argue against the probability of the passage of q law, at the present session of Congress, admitting us into the Union. Mfr. SEVER, however, un- der date of the 18th March, writes to the Editor Of the Gazette :-ss Should l ever be able to get what l have repeated y ask ed several of you for, viz. on oGfcaal ab- straei Q ota iate census, haze no doubt but could yet get bill passed, by which, should il be the pleasure of the people to come into the Union, We could be authori- zed, during the ensuing summer, to form our constitution, and, as the next session, got the .f,stst. sse.so,. sCllonsroes to tue measure. But, until shall be furnished with that indispensable information, there is no hope of getting any other bill passed, than the one enclose you. The Delegate from Michigan IS similarly situated"
 Another letter, written on the afternoon of the 18th, says-s' wrote you this morn- ing, that had not been able to obtain an official abstract of the census of Arkansas. Since then I have been handed letter of Gov. Pope to Col. Johnson, containing the information wanted. So far as it respects form, il Is not exactly right, but t will

We learn by a letter from Johnson coun- ty, that the seat of justice for that county has been placed on the north bank of the river, abouthalf a mile above spadra Bluffs. The town hereafter to arise there has been digniiied with the name of fiAapscRADErE. heeal'se' says our correspondent, neither man nor beast can get to or from it during high water. At present, we believe, the aforesaid HdrdscraJJls does not number many souls within ifs limits, but an infuen- iial inhabitant of the county has given it as ilis opinion that inc town will depoDul;se very rapidly, as he for one intends to settle there himself

Mr. H. EVERETT thought the Delegasc, o1lii his own principles, ought not to vote against the item as amended, since, 1t did not interfere with his own plan of a post at Fort Smith, but only prevented that at Fort Gi''son from being made perma- nent He again explained the views of the Committee on Indian Affairs; and in- sisted that foit was more needed on the western line of the friendly Indians, to pro- tect them from the Pawnees, than on the eastern, to protect the people of Arkansas from those who had no disposition to annoy them.
 Mir. SEvlER's amendment was rejected; and the item, as reported from the Com miitee of the Whole, in it's amended form, was agreed to by the House.
