| "a CLAY ChODS, Oie, sr,. wHJGGERY UNMASKED. kion #. rn,roR: It has long been the policy | m raderal party in Arkansas to create an inaa ';on among the people that the Demo- Is Wen "..r was governed by clique, or resent lPSant Pa,,y title Rock Nothing is farther s: 'ho truth. We have heretofore, and
 rain willing to meet our opponents, and AM with them upon principle. If we fail
 we submit without murmu to the Fame, 's " of tine people. The Democratic rhes l'eG erbts unmasked, and without the aid Nill, 4sst societies, coon skins, or cider bar Rne S'.'th 's tbe muuamery of the '.hill-boy of bn ol..los,D Such devices enabled the
 I nartv to succeed in l940; but the
 l"i ;s now broken, and the people have k. I'll, aod G to their 8sober second thoughts"
 .b however, is not the belief of the an. S nartv in Arkansas; and the better to aPp apnd p orqanize their forces, they have |ion at Il secret society called CLAY CLUB,
 so snecial duty it is to issue orders to EE. .aptains and head men in the several |r dele .;os to organize and hold themselves in Flby, mess to support such men and measures
 bev in their wisdom, may direct. |r debp on may think it strange that Democrat ox, fa nd be possessed of the information which
 'all relate; but it is my mislortune to be brsra, ,,sle with garrulous whig, who has less c.r,. Elimination than high standing. My in hte nation therefore is oGcial, and may be re- If Nom upon.
 |e Ii, s the determination of the managers of ox:-HF Little Rock Clay Club to control the hate. oral party i'll this State; at least they are fl Wan emined to select the chetalns who are bate. rommand in the approaching campaign. If Linc Ee the nomination of State officers by the ltemap nocratc Convention, they have had a ny Ill Snp of the Club, changed, somewhat,
 mode of attack, and ruled off some as Is of nts who had claims upon the party, and ford, could have made respectable run for
 sEemor and Congress. This club is com If Sum ed of such compound of interests and hate bitous aspirants, that 1t IS not altogether Hem ain that the Real Estate Bank will not ery, preval, though majority are now dis
 led to cut loose from that |" abomina- Pf Tip That matter will still be kept open
 | the third Monday of January next, when ot M Whg Convention is to meet and to ra- |nate. what has been done by the Clay Club of the ye le Rock The overwhelming popularity btral Dr. CHAPMAN, in the North, has forced m Club to take D. Walker of Washington M nty, as their candidate for Congress- |acAs0 lev say such men as Jesse Turner, A. bond Fler, Judge Field, and C. P. Bertrand |ngs pd onl ensure defeat to the Federal par ,ner Stand aside, gentlemen! If Walker can |. unite the Western and Northern portion VI lhe State, defeat is inevitable! The talents,
 6able private character, and personal po-
 lanty of Gen. E. N. CONWAY, the Demo-
 slc candidate for Governor, are such as to
 sure hs election against any Federal com Ild, 4or; there are none, therefore, anxious vo, becertalnly defeated; but to make show Of sngth and confidence, F. W. Trapnall, of
 ftle Rock, is to receive the nomination,
 10 accept and continue in the field for Lms months, and he is then to make a pre-
 and decline, and the Federal party is
 n ounlte upon Brig Gen. Rich'd C. Byrd, bt,on Little Rock, for Governor, who will bring [D tn hlm the notch potch portion of the De-
