third district, from Mr. G. w. Gray, the
Wing candidate for Congress in that dis
trict. Mr.. Gray is a gentleman of fine
talents, and an accomplished scholar, of
much political experience, an eloquent and
forcible speaker, fearless in the expression
of his sentiments, and in every respect
qualified to give vigorous and manly sup

To the voters Of the Third Congressional District.
FELLOW CITIZENS: You have already been mott

litical advancement official station; but if an
ardent attachment TO the interests of the State and
of the nation, and mistaken resolution to dis
charge faithfully whatever duty may devolve upon

them with confidence and without hesitation.
Believing that the welfare of our beloved country
will be amply secured by the Administration to
which the sovereign voice ofthe people has entrusted

having in early life buckled the Wing armour,
and stood firm in the ranks through long years Of

General Taylor has but just entered upon the dis
charge Of those responsible duties which your suf
frages have contributed to impose upon him. His
triumphs ON the bloody fields OF Mexico still

his honesty, his true republican simplicity, well
known and for these he has been promoted by a
grateful nation. He has done nothing 10 cool the
ardor Of his friends, 10 induce a withdrawal Of

NEW ROUTE TO CALIFORNIA VIA FL PASSO
In recent conversation with E. II. Feather
ston, ESQ, of Polk county, we learned that there
is good road from this city in direct line, al
most the whole distance from this point TO Ell Passo
del Norte, which all California emgrants starting
from any point North of the mouth of Arkansas
river and who design crossing at that Pass TAX
ing Col. Cooks route to California; will find it to
their advantage to adopt. The route is, from Lit
tie Rock to Montgomery, in Montgomery county,
thence to Dallas, Polk county, thence TO Fort
Towson, on Red River, thence TO Fort Washita,
near the junction of the False Washta with Red
River, and from this point fine. level route,
to the Pass. The road from this city 10 Fort
Washington, Mr.. Featherston, who has travelled
the whnhe distnnce, represents one Of the best
in the country. being without single hill of any
size throughout its whole extent !; and he has the
authority Of those who have passed that por.
tion of the route between Fort Washita and the
Pass for stating that the route is level and be
travelled at all of the year. Grass is
plenty a; aIl times this route, and the supply of
water is good. By reference to tho map it will be
seen that this is direct route from this point, and
we believe i. would be well for Cafornians going
by the Pass to take II. We hope TO be fur
nished with a mnuie description Of thls new trail.

appeal for aims, announcing himself as de-
