 GENTLEMEN As a citizen of long stantl- ing in Arkansas, take the liberty of express ing through the columns of your paper, my preferences individually and politically, for Chester Ashley, as the choice Of the Demo- cratic party, for Senatorin Congress pass hy any supposed claims he may have to that office, as the expression is commonly used now. Others might regard the fact that he has been for years identified v'ith the party, and laboring for it's support, as giving him a high claim to its honors. But our prefer ences ought to be based upon the merit and qualifications of those whom we are about to select as public servants, and not bestow- ed, as merely the reward of past services.- Without intending to dlsparage the claims or qualifications oi any other person for that high station, ] consider Col. Ashley emia- ently qualified by lis experience, his person. al worth, his acknowledged talents. and his long residence in the Siate, and thorough ac- qualniance with the wants and wishes of the people. He IS, in fact, one of the pioneers oi Arkansas one among the oldest of our citizens now living, and still able and will ling, Il need be, to endure the hardships and privations of former years
 In selecting public servant to represent us In the councils of the nation, we want a man capable of understanding our interests. and faithful to advocate and guard them.- We want man in Congress who would do us credit; of whose position there, we could ieei proud.

THE ECTlONS-GLORI0US NEWS!}! Oun GALLANT Cocx IS STILL UP AND GROWING
 AND THERE IS GOOD NEWS ENOUGH TO KEEP HIM GROWING DAY AND NIGHT HE RESULT OF THE STATE ELECTIONS RENDERS IT GER
 TAIN THAT PoLK AND DALLAS WILL BE
 ELECTED!
 ITEM lst. The Democratic gain in the following States as shown by the late elections, the vote of is4O affords sure evidence of what is to be the final resut--Kentucky, 2l,2l9; North Carolina ll,342; Indiana, i5,2G6; Illinois, 1l,S60; Malne ll,275; Vermont. 7,s31 Connecticut, 5,058; Ma ryland, 4,2l0; Alabama, I,G61 Louisiana, s,os2; Delaware, l,ll4; Ohio, about 23,000; Pennsylya- mia, about 7,000; Georgia. at least 10000.
 Thus if seems that in II states, the late elections show Whg loss and Democratic gain since the vote of I840 of ONE HUNDRED AND THIR- |TY.sIX THOUSAND, FIVE HUNDRED AND FORTY-SIX! But little less than Harrison beat Van Bursn in the popular vote ol l541. 4 cores bonding Democratic gain in the other States will carry Polk and Dallas ahead the Wti ticket great y more than Hanison's majority oyer Van Buren. It is eear therefore, that in the popular vote we are more than safe How do we stand with the states? Equally sais.
 . ITEM 2d. PENNSYLVANIA has gone for us by about SEVEN THOUSAND VOTES!
 ITEM Sd. GEORGIA, gallant GEORGIA! where the Wings have calculated on a strong majority, has certainty gone for the Democrats by between TWO and SEVEN THoUsAND the exact majority nol known.
 Irsm 4b. OHIO has done well for us! one more srug5le and the Democrats are determined to make it, and ho is redeemed In lS4a Harrison car ried the state by majority Of 23,975 In the late state election, tIe Wings have carried the state by only about o5o, showing vast decrease of thedf strength The Democrats have majority in BOTH BRANCHES or THE LEGtsLaTuRE. This IS cer- tainly handsome victory. An increase of one vote in each township in the state, says Ohio paper, will give majority to Polk and Dallas, and the De- moer4t5 are determined 10 make grand rally--we have no serious fears of the result.
 ITEM 9th. DELAWARE, another strong hold of the Wings heretofore, has certainly gone Tor the De- mocrats by majority Of about 50 VOTES! Some of the Whig presses have contradicted this statement But its truth is certain no doubt about it.
 ITEM 9th. NEW JERSEY The Whg loss in New Jersey since the vote of IS40, shown by the late election, is 1.010 The Democrats have strong confidence Of carrying the state

FRutTs or BANKiNe.-The debts of the States and cities, created mostly, between the years 1885 and 1889, during the rage of the great banking fe- yer. amount to about $25o,ooo,o0o. Of this enor- nous sum, about $So,0oo,OoO are liabilities and stock of that fallen monster the late United States Bank. And about $20o,Oo0,O00 of the entire amount is due to the British Government, and Eng fish Companies Besides, the indebtedness of pri- yate individuals. created during the banking mania, is probably, over and above what was paid by the easy operation of the Yhig Bankrupt .4ct, equal to, or greater than the debts of the States and Corpora tions, Such has been, and ever will be, the fruits of banking including National, State and lndlvidu- al Banking. And yet the Wings are labonng' m this canvass, to establish power an administration that will put on foot scheme of Banking larger and more ruinous in the end, than the one that has been preying upon the vitals of the country ior years past, and which has involved the States aad the people in such hopeless indebtedness
