or We are on The eve Of a visit to the East,
and for short time will be absent from our post.
During that absence we have engaged the SER
vices Of J. w. Washbourne ESQ.,, who will take
charge of the /" Intelligencer." II is superAuous
here to say who Mr.. Washbourne is. In this
community he is well known for his fine talents
'and excellent attainments, well for his sterling
democracy.
Wo have. during the last exciting campaign,
been frequently placed under obligations to the
above gentleman for his valuable services, which
we with feelings Of pleasure acknowledge. We
hope that his editorial career, upon which he is
about to enter, may rebound to his honor and 3D.
vantage, and that but small share of the srlbula'
sions and discomfort may fall to his lee. /.

Age published at Little Rock. 1t is neutral in
politics and devoted to news and literary matter.
OrRed River is said to be high, and still rising
by last accounts.
GTWe sec BY the Little Rock "Age" that a
number of boats had left that city for this place
and we learn, by passengers in the stage, who
left the "Hatchee Eagle" near Lewsburg. that
they are thore waiting for high water. We can
console them by promising that if we have a
warm season, next summer, the mountain rise
will certainly come.
OETOur readers will find on the outside of to-
days paper-'''rhe sword of Jackson" A young
gentleman in Jail" "Lieut Boyle's letter." A
hint for the natives,'' SHOW our friend BIS
hair went,' and several other interesting articles
worthy of their notice.

.prsraie letter to Mr.. Walker, which appear
ed in their last paper, is referred to by these pat-
terms Of deccncy, in a manner exhibiting to the
public how much they can appreciate an act of du-
ty and courtesy among gentlemen; to them, such
courtesy shown, would be worse than casting
pearls before swine. Wo may advert 10 it with
pleasure, it furnishes an evidence that nee can per-
form an act Of justice, which they cannot.

as Ignorant of the feelings which actuate chiva-

Dogs as they are, we promise to act upon Charles
OMalley's hint, If their '' lively sensbiites''
prompt them 10 call US out, We will give them a
meeting; and will defer our departure from town
week longer to allow them the opportunity

"chivalry" will Of course urge them to attain.
