the national character at home, and makes us ridiculous abroad
 Another motive in giving to the public por- tions of this work, is, to show that most oi the English tourists repay kindness with sar- casms on our country and it's government. The English are prejudiced people, with institutions totally different from ours, and there is consequently striking dissimharity in the manners and customs of each country. We have our faults, and 1t is the part of man. Illness to admit them, since perfection belongs to TO country on the earth.
 Most of the English come to America pre- determined 10 find fault with almost every thing. They ridicule our manners and pc cuiarities-ridicule society; but all this IS harmless. As a people, we are the most in- telligent and enterprising ofany ill the world; and this we think an unprejudiced foreigner must admit without hesitation.

fidence, and actually unfit 10 be trusted, by al county, with vote in the convention? This is the meaning of the foul and disgraceilJ H. bel on this high and worthy class of men; nor is 1t strange, coming from the source it does; since the federal party have ever re- garded the great mass of the people as an ig- norant rabble, made but to be ruled, and ab- solutely incapable of governing themselves. To what mean and contemptible shifts are the whgs driven, in opposing this conven- ton'
 The last Gazette, in a leading editorial, speaks of our plan of a convention; and we barely refer to it, for the purpose of correct ing gross misrepresentation of a part of that plan. The Gazette says: "Now, what is the plan of the Banner? It is to have pri= mary meetings, at which some staunch de- lnocrat is to be called to the chair, who shall preside, and nominate He delegates 10 Me coarcation; to be submitted to the meeting, for their approval Was there ever opened a finer field, in which intriguing ambition could display its trickery and double dealing p
 Now read what ,#c said, ii oaT article, on the plan of convention. "The practice has been, and it is an excellent one, for the chair man or president of the meeting, on motion, to appoim COMMITTEE, FOR THE PURPOSE OF REPORTING SUITABLE PERSONS FOR DELE GATES; and when the report is adopted, they are considered as chosen.''
 Is there any thing here, about the chair mans :. nominating he delegates 10 the con- eea,ion % and yet the editor of the Gazette, with his eyes open, and without the shadow of an excuse, attributes to us a suggestion we never made; and then denounces it, with the utmost violence and indignation. He is wei come to all the glory he can acquire by such conduct: and if he thinks it honorable to misrepresent us, in material matter, he will find no just man to endorse 1t.
 When the committee report, we all know that the question may be taken on the whole report, or separately as to each person named as delegate; so that is utterly impossible to force upon the meeting, any man for delegate, who is not the choice of the majority and surely course like this will faithfully reflect the will of the people.

We have received the first number of the "Soaihcra Reformcr," large imperial paper published at the city of Jackson, Mississippi by Col. W. M. Smyth, It contains vast amount of statistical and useful information and should be preserved It is decidedly de, mocratic, and conducted with great abillE and zeal. Such a paper cannot but be pow eriul auxiliary of democracy in the State c Mississippi, and determined opponent d federal whiggery. As 1t breathes eternal hos tility to the enemies of our'republican insil- tutions, we feel proud in hailing,it as an Ia- portant acquisition to the cause ill which Ve arc laboring

COL. .W Isl OLDHAM

We have read, with great pleasure, the publication of Col. Oldham, which we trans fer to our columns from the Van Buren h. telligencer. That publication shows that the oGcious efforts of the Gazette and its corre- spondent, to produce misunderstanding be- tween prominent individuals of the democrat- ic party, are as hopeless as they are disrepu- table. Whatever Col Sevier may have writ ten or spoken of that committee, nothing was ever further from his intention than to cast censure upon either Speaker Oldham or Pre- sident Adams. They, or either of them, so far as he ever understood, had but little if any agency in the ultimate organization of commit ant, f f Col Col had n.lomI that one or the other of those presiding off, cers in our late Legislature had appointed euery member whose name is attached to the report, he would have attributed such action on their part to nadvertance, and not to any design to preclude him from a fair investiga- ton of his conduct In that event, Colonel Sevier would have used the word sprejadiccd,' , instead of .packed' committee, which, pro bably, after all, under the circumstances, would have been better appellation.
 To the Editors of tte 4fdaasas httelligeacer:
 GENTLEMEN-It appears to be matter of anxious curiosity with some, particularly with the Editor of the Little Rock Gazette, and his correspondent, {: N orth Arkansas,7 as to the difference between Col. Sevier and my self This curiosity Tam willing to gratlIy, and will inform those gentlemen, that there {. exists nothing but personal and political ffiendship.p Those feeling any interest in relation to the appointment of the committee upon the subject of the Real Estate Bank, and the sale of the bonds by Sevier and Will Hanson, will see, by reference to the journals of the last session, that but one single mem- Der, originally appointed by me, acted; that four others were afterwards appointed by me, to fill the places of the four who had with drawn from the committee. They will also see that six or eight other members were add ed to the committee, upon the motion ol members. It will also be seen that the com mittee was a joint committee, and that the President of the Senate Is responsible for their appointment, or for those he did ap- point. He can say what he designed by the annnintment of the committee the nert ot the Senate. am not responsible for the political character of the committee, nor for the refusal of members to act upon 1t, nor for the action of the committee. Nor am aware that Col. Sevier ever charged me with having .' stocked committee upon him D and whenever he does make that charge, 1t will be time for me to repel 1t.
 ought to be thankful to the Editor of the Gazette, for throwing the mantle of his mighty influence over me, to protect me from the attacks of my political friends. l am, how ever, willing for the Gazette to confne its operations to the ehanne! for which 1t was purchased, leaving me to defend myself with out ;;:ts support, whenever l am attacked by friend or foe.
 am, respectfully,

Uarrseedeatcd Fwgery-A youth, aged about seventeen, was recently committed to prison, in New York city, upon the charge of forging checks on his employers, Messrs. Austin, Wilmerding & c., to the amount of $29,000. He had obtained this amount, at different intervals, from the banks. We are inclined to believe that this crime involves other aud older heads.

Tell no Faischoods--lt is impossible for a person, who is in the habit of uttering un- truths, to escape detection. Your character for truth or ialsehood will be known. And what can be more humiliaiing and degrading, than to have the name of liar? It is so considered in all nations and with all people. It is considered one of the most cowarJly vices of which one can be guilty. The liar IS always coward. He tells lies because afraid to tell the truth.

A writer for the Gazette, over the signature
 of North Arkansas;" supposed to be one of
 the Batesvlle humbuggers and black-cockade
 federalists, has addressed to that paper, fifteen
 numbers, and in every one, he has shown
 great anxiety about the movements of the
 democratic party. In each address, he has
 fixed upon different individuals, whom he
 supposes the democratic party will run for Governor and for Congress, at the next elec- ton. This poor fellows curiosity, we fear, will run him mad unless 1t should be speedi- ly gratifed We commend to him little patience. On the first .Monday of neat De- cem6er, he will probably know what the de- mocratic party intend to do, in these particu- lars. We hope to see the party, in every county in the State, represented in State Convention, at Little Rock, on that day and further, to see the name of every aspirant for each of those offices, laid before that body and fairly considered--snd when the selec- tions shall be made, we further hope to see those selected obtain the vote of every true democrat in the stale, the disappointed aspi- rants among the rest. The difficulty will be not on account of the scarcity of men, but because there will be more than enough, who are competent, faithful, and efficient de- qualified for those stations-and hence the necessity for Convention to make the selections, iii order to prevent divisions in our party, and consequent defeat.

Vermont-The democratic vote has in- creased, since 1884, from 10000 to 23,000. While such tokens of an increase throughout the Union daily multiply, it must be the con vlctlon of every sensible whig in the land, that their cause Is waning, and that ill lS44, the gathering pillows of democracy will have carried every obstacle before them.

CHARLES DICKENS.

We published ill the last, and have also published in the present number of the Ban- ner, portions of ''.Mdrtin Chuszlecit,n a new work, by Charles Dickens, author of ''Ame- rican Notesn Ii is extracted from the month ly serial supplement to the New World-a periodical which every literary gentleman should take Martin Chuzzlewit is an enter taining work, and perhaps the best of Mr. Dickens's popular productions. When in America, he was almost deifed, and espe- cially in tho city of New Y ork, where there is much of servile imitation of every thing that is English. There was the great Boz ball, which cost thousands; and perhaps al the very next tenement, the philanthropist might have found starving wretches and mi serable mendicants Mir Dickens has ex- pended the whole force of his ridicule upon the New Workers, in the most amusing style; and we are glad that lie has done so, for they richly deserved it. Their obsequiousness to him was disgusting to every proud republican. This work and his American Notes ought to teach us, for almost the hundredth time, that to lavish countless attentions on foreigners, is not the way to gain their esteem or pre- serve our own dignity. There should be, to
 be sure, a proper degree of atiention-that
 which IS due from one gentleman to another;
 but to make lion of every one, the moment
 he sets his foot upon our shores, cheapen.

sNorth Arkansas" of the Gazette, thinks that David Walker, of Washington, for Con- gress, Dr. Gibson, for Governor, and Airing ton on the electoral ticket, would be quite a strong array. They will want but two things, to be elected-frst, the confidence of the people, and, secondly, their votes.

OUR SUBSCRIPTION LIST.

Although the Banner has only reached the
 fourth number, yet we cannot refrain from
 saving 1t, we have over ONE THOUSAND good
 cash-paying subscribers, and arc rapidly add
 ing to this large number the names Of per-
 sons, who are but waiting an opportunity to send the "one thing needfal, , and who speak of our paper and its course, in the most flat taripg terms. 9Bis $ 10 6oasting, as tte subscription A;sf asi1 frope.
 Every mail from the West, North, East, and South, brings us glad tidngs of our sue cess. We felt assured at the beginning, and so predicted, that in less than year, We should have a larger subscription list than any two papers III the State, and even in this short period of time the prediction is almost fulfilled
 This result assures us that the friends of good government are on our side; that re- publican doctrines have lost none of their beauty and strength; and that the federalists are just as far from shaking the faith of the people in our democratic institutions, as they were at any period of our history. The people have virtue, integrity, and patriotism, and while these are retained, 1t is utterly im- possible for the federal party to attain any thing like permanent foot-hold. As for the hotch-potch gentry, we know of no worse punishment than to leave them to their owE reflections They are of no use in the world, except to swell census list.
