THE GUBERNATORIAL ELECTION.

THE GUBERNATORIAL ELECTION.
The Arkansas Democrat of the 9th inst, speak,
ing of Gen. Smithson's position in this canvass,
says:
That Mr.. Smithson will retire at once, and
most willingly too, we firmly believe. We are
induced to believe thus, not only because we know
he is capable of appreciating his duty as a demo-
cfat, but we have the assurance; in note from
him to thai effect. In letter to us, dated at
Fayetteville. 10th Dec, in which he communi-
Gates to u.s. his intention of becoming a candidate,
he says
"Should there be whig III the field. you ma Y
calculate on my Withdrawing my name, unless
something should happen whereby it would put
it out of my power to do sd honorabIy."
OF Mr.. Smithson's intention to decline, we
were assured by him, personally, when he au-
thorized us to announce him as a candidate; and
from his opinions and views. expressed upon that
occasion, we are fully convinced that he will do
so, it is known that schig candidate
is in the field. He has assured US most positively
that such would be his course. His high sense
of honor and truthfulness of character are certain
guarantees that he will withdraw
The impossbiity of his own election, and the
strong probability of the election of whig. are
too app aren't, TO encourage him to remain on the
track
The wings are now shouting with. bright antici-
pations of victory. Their banners are foutino
in the air. and waving in proud expectation of an
easy triumph. In their arrogance they even
boastfully declare that they can carry the State
over the heads of divided democracy. Wher.
ever their naughty boastings are hea rd, the DEM
ocratic party are rallying upon Col. Roane-the
true democracy, those who value the principles
OF their party above personal predictions, are
determined to present bold front, TO the enemy
and fight to the death for their cause. If they
are defeated, the modification will not be theirs,
for they will have done their duty-the execra,ons
will not be heaped upon their heads, the sin of
disorganizaton will not lie at their DOORS
