The Arkansas advocate., 1835-05-01

The following, from the leading papers in the Union, may inform our readers what are the prospects of Judge White.
 'fe copy the following article from the Richmond Whig =
 JUDGE WHITE. Wing candidates in Virginia for the Legislature and Con- gress, are almost every where declaring for Judge White. His prospects are ad- vancing with rapidity of stride, sufficient ly appalling no doubt, 10 the New York party, and surprising even to himself. Be- tween him and Mr. Van Buren there is not a shade of doubt, that Virginia would de- clare for him by a very large majority and as Virginia goes, so will probably go the united South, from the Potomac and Ohio, to the Gulf of Mexico.
 At the North also, Judge Whites popular lity is developing with unexpected strength. In Connecticut, it is said that he could carry the day against MT. Webster himself. The rank misdeeds of an administration known 10 be under the absolute influence of Van
 Buren, and the open corruption employed to secure his election, have inspired a cordial ttlO NlCtCStt1ltOA VI which will ultimately unite all the elements of opposition upon one candidate. That candidate must, in all human probability. be Judge White, and with the strength he will bring from Jackson States, his election can- not be regarded as even doubtful. That he is highly objectionable, few will deny Still he Is better than Van Buren, office holding uscendency, New York tactics and corruption. That he is denounced by the Globe and it's affiliated brethern, is an ex- celient guarantee for his administering the Government on principles Htey will not like, and their not liking them. Is no bad reconl- mendaiion.
 He was for the Proclamation. which We abhor-for the Force Bill, it's spawn: and the Protest, whose doctrines were the de- finition of despotism. Grant 1t all Make him as black as you will, but yet will he be more White than Van Buren, (we mean no pun,) for to these sins, Mir. Van Buren adds the further sin of having been uni formly against tho South in every great and vital measure, and all which ure compre- hended in the significant term, "New York tacties.n

HOT SPRINGS OF ARKANSAS.
 I Concluded.

To the Editor of the Advocate.
 The springs, which are upwards of eighty in number, are seen bursting out from the solid mass of rock which lines the east side of the valley, at various distances. extending from the base to the summit. They are perfectly transparent, as are also the waters of the streams; the deposite from them has been inconsiderable; and they are of all temperatures, from boiling to that of ordi- nary spring water. The present enterpri- zing proprietors have recently erected a considerable number of yapor and other baths, so that the invalid may recline him sel upon hls seat, and without even the
 most trifiing inconvenience, enjoy the plea- sure, and 1t IS not trihing, of a moderate perspiraton; or he may increase the action of the bath until he shall perspire most pro- fusely, and even greater yet without expe- riencing the smallest inconvenience, until his lower extremities are as 1t were covered with small streams eoursing off from his body. The waters from his body are char ged with morbid humors, and pregnant with the causes of pain, suffering, and disease. Such is the construction of the baths, of which there is a number, that, in the room adjoining the vapor baths, is one of the other kind, of proper temperature, into which the patient may plunge himself and wash, while the yapor escaping from the room where the vapor bath, (which is no- thing more than body of boiling water cov- ering the whole surface below, over which an open floor is laid with the heat and va DOT arising from the water bath, keeps up the temperature to moderate warmth, so that persons may dress at their leisure, without suffering from the chilling effect of the outer atmosphere.
 As 1t regards the diseases for which these waters afford a remedy, do not con

Braided Rat I'aiis.--A few days since at Darien N. Y. a cluster of eleven rats were found in stable, with their iais hraid- ed together ia such manner as to forbid the idea Of their ever extricating themselves. Ten of the rats were alive: they had near ly consumed the eleventh The ends of the tails that stuck out from half to one inch through the braiding, had perished, while the remainder was perfectly sound.
 What pity is it that those RATS who so troubled our neighbor of the Gazette some time since, could not be caught some time, after some such fashion!

We assure the Gazette that we have no In- tention of suffering any "derelictions" of du- ty in the Postmaster at this place, when we feel certain that such have been committed When we returned from Crawford court, we sought an explanation from Col. Field, of the fact that two mails had left this place after the publication day of our paper, neither oi which contained 1t. The explanation given was the same as that given to MT. Woodruff, and we were satisfied. Our paper was re- tained in the office, but we were assured 1t was through inadvertence-and we could not doubt the word of man of honor. Another failure occurred at the Hot Spring Post Of flee while we were at that place. That fail- ure was not imputable to the Postmaster here. live were convinced that any Postmaster ia vored us to the injury of MT. Woodruff, we trust enough in ourself, to believe we have sufficient magnanimity to denonnce him to the public.
 We protest also against being in any way luCHIlHBu Wltu CiGHSi pdibg III eha9 uA7PesoSe We arc no partizan Of Col. Fiela-fior he any partizan of us. He is a subscriber to our pa per--and as such, common courtesy required us to publish one communication for him. The following is our rule in these matters In a private controversy, we publish flor a subscriber one article gratis. For the suc- ceeding ones we must be paid A person not subscriber, cannot carry on u personal controversy in our columns without paying us for the use of them. We have to pay for the work performed in printing them. We publish every advertisement aohich IS paid for, if 1t be not offensive to public decency and morality. In this we have no choice We must do so--and we are not responsible for any article iii our columns unless we in- dofse 1t.

It Is common in the West to use the word guaiify, to express taking the oath of office. Often when we have heard it used, we have thought CT an anecdote we once heard of a justice of the peace elect, who appeared be- fore the proper officer and requested to be qualifcd. q can't do 1t, sir said the off cer. ''No! why was told you was the pro- per person to swear me into office" "Oh, aye, that's another thing. Yes, can swear you into office, but 1t takes higher power than possess to quaijy you"
