 WIHGGERY IS DEAD IN ARKANSAS.
 RaisIeaeteg the si1diag ship.
 ALFRED W. AnRlNGroN, Whg candidate for Presidential Elector and one of the great guns of Whiggery, in Arkansas, has lo7idraita from lie 7Eefet, aa@ reaoa2eal the paftg His letter, to this effect has been addressed to the Editor ol the Ca. zette or 10 Col FowGen, of this city, for publica on; and should, Of right appear in the Gazette ot to-day. We.aro of opinion, however, that it will mol be published but suppressed for fear of the in jury it would inilict upon the Hbig party, and of ha heavy blows t deals out against Wing leaders, and Whig management, in Arkansas. Nc dare the Gazette aaa is owners to give publicity b Airing tons etter or il they are afraid to put 1t in type, to send fl oyer and let us give ii to he pubic Ks is well known to our readers, we have no exalted opinion ol Arlington; yet W e@ishto see even him, have fair play, afd nearing.
 Lest this letter should be totally suppressed, and never allowed to see the ligai, we assume ha task of informing the public that il contains, either per- baiim, or H substance, the following declarations "l WILL No LONGER ACT WITH THE WfuG raR- ry." And we call upon Col. Fowler, and the Edi- tor of the Gazette, 10 say whether We have stated correctly. The publication of the letter-and t was intended for pahlication-WiA either confirm or disproye tar statement. We bide the issue. si- lence, or failure to publish the letter, will be con sIued into an admission that we have correctly stated, at least portion of it's contents, and, thus, given key to it's whole character. Still We desire 10 see fhig's exposure of the Wbig party. Out with the letter then, and It Arlington spea, for himself. Ne call for tae lettei-tho public wish to see tive dara the Gazette to publish it. But no !! it will be suppressed. There will be ano room for il, hts week, in the peftoc columns of the Gazette ] il wiIl be crowded out" next week; and so on, nlil effef the election.
 But, however much the Whig party of Arkansas may be exposed and denounced by 4JYae}oa, they cannot telaate upon hin, nor displace him from the elevated niche which they have so formally assigned him, in their temple of political moral and intel- lectual distinction. They have already endorsed his character as gentlemen, a3 Whig, and as an ora tor, of the truest stamp and highest order. In the "Address of the Wing State Convention to the peo- pie of Arkansas" (Page l,) issued in January last he is recommended ot his ssffjeaie pffaes eminent taimts, and siatmea Hh'g principles" And the Ga zettc, of this city, as the organ of the Whg party and with the sanction of the Hhig leaders, under took his defence against all attacks, and, more than once, pronounced him to be man of honor, true Whig, aa orator of most commanding talents, and politician of almost nnbonnaed inau>nce over th5 people. Such was Arlington in January, and doWT to the present time, in the opinion ofthe Whis Con yention, or the NhiS leaders, and of ihe Whig or. gan. As such, they hugged him to their bosom and lafished upon him all manner of praise. h a word, they chose him as their leader, and declared him to be one of tlla main pillars Of their stlength- He is the same man now, that he was then. They cannot repudiato di@. But 1e has repudiated tteb He denounces them as unworthy; and declares taai he "leiH no longer act lsit5 tde Hbig paHy."
 The fair and legitimate inference to be drawn from this state of things, is that the Nyhig party rotten and corrupt, is falling to pieces by its owr weight; or like an eld worm-eaten ship, from whiel the rats sasacioasly escaping, ere she sinks for eyer .ilraetoa is a shrewd fellow, and seeks 10 b, clear of the i;ed old hulk, before she goes down in November And ths is true type and certain in. dicatioa of the tate of Whggery in Arkansas.
