The Arkansas advocate., 1835-11-27

iiieni to office in therefore it was regarded by many as an honest differ ence of opinions; and while we were unable i te comprehend the jist of the Governor's reasoning, we were charitable enough to feel no bitterness towards hlm.
 It Is not my intention 10 say any thing now on the Governors views of our capa-
 !i;t !ity t5F sS5tssta s.oseriiIisiat foi perceive by the late papers. that he promises the re- l presentatives of the people his hearty CO., operation in facilitating our admission into the Union this session of Congress; but allude 10 purely local matter, of some in- terest to the people of Chicot.
 l Mf. Benjamin Miles, respectable eiti- zen of this county, @as appointed, without solicitation on his part, Judge of the County Court of Chieot. As there was 10 be but one term of the Court between the date of his commission and the regular election ia December, and as 1t was the settlement time for one or two administrations of mag nltude, he determined, at the request of some of his friends, to qualify, which he did, and was preparing to hold ihe Court, when the anomaly was presented 10 the public of two regularly appointed Judges for the county of Chieot, Another com mission was forwarded to citizen of the couniy, revoiking, presume, upon the prin ciples of powers of attorney, the first com missioaii!! t ifas regarded here, al first, as an official nadverience, originating in the press of business, but of late a rumor has reached, stating that Mir. Miles had been appointed by Gov. Fulton because the Governor had believed that he was qua Ilfied in point of character and standing to fill the office, but that he had since learned the true character of RIr. Miles, and felt bound by the iast representations 10 dis place him. If this Is the truth which hope it is not, feel sorry that it falls to the lot. of one of the most urambtious of his Excellency's subjects to teach him the law ito tell him that, with all his creative pow CT, he can no moro remove petty County Judge than can. He must be impeach- ed, and q majority of the Legislature must find against him, before he can be removed. But to the point. If representations have been made against Mr Miles, let Us know them. Some of Us have known Mr. Miles l 15 years, and VIC wish to know upon what grounds he was displaced. The gentleman who represented Mr. Miles to the Govern or as an individual qualified to fill the office of County Judge, Is favorably known here to be a man of standing. Let us know the charges, and let Us know by whom they were made. If the charges are true, the Governor is justifiabe in his course. If they are false, the Governor has not only been instrumental in casting an odium upon the character of Mr. Miles, but also upon the gentleman who represented Mir. Miles to have been an honest man. l appeal to inc Governor foran explanation. iappeai to him not only as the curator of the inter- ests of the people, but as a gentleman, who, i ] am tiattered, has too much kindness in his disposition to wlsally injure the feelings of two highly respectable gentlemen, without making the amends honorable, as far as it in his power to do so.
 A FARMER.
