Jefferson County Nominee.

We notice that the Republican has hosted at its masthead the name of THos. J. INGRAM as the democratic nominee, to represent the county of Jefferson in the next Legislature
 At very large and respectable meeting held in Pine Bluff, MT. INGRAM received the nomi- nation, and, as we have ever advocated sub- mission to conventional nominations. we wish this gentleman success. It is matter of re- gret that the nominee has democratic opposi- tion, and we trust that such reconciliation will yet take place, as to give Mr. INGRAM fair and open field.
 Conventions are the only means by which har- mony and unity can be secured to party They are the only resort in accomplishing suc- cess, for through them alone, can the individual be pointed out upon whom to unite If the strength of the party be dissipated upon differ ent aspirants, aN ALL will be defeated, and the party, in the end, destroyed Let the democra- cv look to this matter

HF The Whig. in its last issue. refuses DOS

GT The Whig, in its last issue, refuses posi- lively to accede to our proposition for settling the question of the largest circulation between the three papers of this city. In doing so, it says:
 The "True Democrat" appears unwilling to rest the assertion that has the largest crcula- tlon on its own word, and challenges us tosub- mt 1t toumpires. We have no objection III the world to the 'True Democrat submitting It's own veracity to the decision of others. II It IS fearful that its character, in this respect, needs bolstering up, why, at once procure the neces- sary proof. As for ourself, we are perfectly content to submit it on our own word. we never make an assertion without knowing It to De true; and we fatter ourself that our character TOT truth and veracity," is sufficient to satisfy the public that 1t is true. Whether such IS the case with our neighbor, we will not undertake to determine.
 Being unwilling to submit to the croa0ing of the Whig, by whichit exalted itself so high and exceptionally lowered us, we did challenge it to atrial of the issue. The proposition we made, to refer our subscription books to arbtraters, was liberal one and presented to our mind the
 
 the Whig felt assured of the correctness of it's boasting declarations, it would gladly have availed itself of it. It would promptly have embraced the opportunity, thus to procure the public acknowledgment of its rivals, that it had the largest circulation in the State.''
 We were not prepared for the qubbling by which that paper so ingloriously backs out from our challenge. It does not meet the question boldly and bluntly as 1t should have done, but branches otfin its usual inflated encomiums upon Its own character for truth and veracity" Itsavs that It never makes an assertion without know ing 1t to be true," and, at the same time, says. 1t has the largest circulation of any paper in the State."
 NOW let us examine a few facts:
 The Whlg the Gazette and the True Demo- crat, each, advertised the list ofswamp lands for the Jacksonport district. Each one expecting to be paid for the advertising, was morally bound to send full list every week for six weeks, to each one of its subscribers This we presume each one honestly did Butin order to do SO. the Whlg would have been compelled, as it says It has the largest circulation tostrke of more pa- pers than tie Gazette or we did But it did not do so. We struck off for our weekly distribu tlon, 20 CURES MORE than either the Whio or the Gazette. Thus it is clearly proven that we must have 40O, or mealy f0e AundreM sul- sc'abers, more than either of those papers.
 We are thus particular in stating these facts, because the Whig seems desrous to bring the question to an issue of veracity between us. We endeavored to avoid it, by proposing to submit to an arbitration. But this it declines: let if now submit to the consequence
The true Democrat., 1854-06-06
To the Democracy of Saline Co.

We request the attention of our democratic friends in Saline county to the brief note of Judge HUGHES, written to the editor of this paper, after consultation with many of his fel- low democrats. It is an appeal to the demo- cracy of the county to meet in convention, on tue first Monday an July, to select a suitable can- didate to represent them in the next Legsla- ture.
 We are strong advocate of party organiza- tion. We believe in it, because it divests the contest between the two great rival parties of that selfish personality into which it always de- generates when maintained in behalf of inde- pendent tickets. The success of independent candidates may evidence the independence of individuals struggling for personal aggrandize- ment, but the triumph of conventional nomi- nations manfests the independence of parties contending for some great principle-manifests their devotion to measures and not to men,
 Party organization too yields with force and effect, because it concentrates the strength of the party. There must be some tribunal for de-
  must rally; otherwise its strength and power will be wasted upon numerous aspirants, while the opposing party, combining and uniting its energies upon single candidate, will achieve the victory.
 We sincerely trust the democrats of Saline will take immediate steps for holding county convontion on +ha fret Monlox, ;,, I,lr ,ar+ 4o nominate candidate to represent them in the next Legislature
 They have the strength to elect whomsoever they may nominate; but, in order to secure that strength and render it available, they must as- semble in convention and make nomination
 The next Legislature will be one of vast i'm portance to the State and of infinite interest to Saline county itself Besides the election of a U. s. Senator, which is in itself of sufficient importance to demand some eXertion at the hands of democrats, there is the Cairo and Full ton grant of lands to be disposed of. The Cairo and Fulton railroad, passing as it does through the heart of the county, is subject more deep- y interesting to the citizens of Saline, than any other that has ever yet been, or perhaps ever will be again, presented to them.
 For these reasons we hope the democrats will respond promptly and cheerfully to the call now made upon them. Now is the time to act. Already the canvass is far advanced and the election near at hand. Let there be full at- tendance and we will insure complete success.

Practice vs. Profession.

We have been informed that the son of the minister to Central America has been appointed to West Point vace William Newton, resigned.
 Here, in this appointment, the poor and de- serving youths native-born of Arkansas, have been thrust aside for Maj. Borland's son, who does not, to our knowledge, live in the State and who is richly able to pay for his education
 He is naw placed over their heads to be schooled and supported at the public charge
 We would not direct public attention so pontedly to this outrage, were it not that so much has been said by Maj Borland about family and family monopoly" Where now is the honest indignation of the Gazette Has it no longer voice to raise against family monopoly ?"

it's length and breath If slavery cannot exist
 in these territories when they come to be set tied up, why it must take its fate there, as it has done in other quarters of the Union where the soil and climate cannot sustain it, and as it will yet die out in course of time in quarters where it now exists, by the pure aud natural operation of the competition with it of white labor, when population has increased. There is vast diff ference, with a free people between submission to the inevitable operation of the laws and pro- violence of the Almighty, and submission to the impudent dictation of set of vulgar fana- tics who mpiously set themselves up to amend and alter His decrees.

THE MARTHA WASHINGTON CAsE.--On Tues day last this important case was laid before the Grand jury, and after the examination of seve- ral witnesses, true bill, for murder and ar son, was found against Wm. Kissane, John N Cummings, Wm. H. Holland, Jas. c. Nichol- son, Lyman Cole, Benj. A. Earle, George P. Stevens, and Amasa, Lorenzo, Rufus, and Adams Chapin.

The Wheeling Times, of the 18th gives us the following particulars respecting the destruc- tion of this most beautiful and valuable struc- tlre, which cost Sl6O,OOO:
 The wind was very high nearly all day ves- terday, and at about o'clock 1t rose to a fierce tornado, swinging the immense Wheeling bridge, the grandest structon of the kind in the world. to and fro for about ten minutes, when the fas- tennSs gave way and the whole superstructure was plunged into the river below. It is a great calamity, the greatest, apparently, that Wheel ms has ever experienced. There was no one on It at the time, and no one hurt in the least, although the dollhouse was torn in pieces and some small building near 1t injured.
 The anchorage on the south side appeared first to give away, by the parting of one anchor bar. Other cables on the south side were thrown from the tower and in the small ones the wire parted Two cables on the north side still re- main firm in their places, the whole suspenders having given way letting the bridge fall, an en- tire wreck, into the river.
 Mir. Bell, the bridge-tender was fortunately out of his office when the bridge fel or he would probably have been killed, as the office was crushed. He very narrowl y escaped with his llte He had seen the danger to it for some minutes before it occurred and prevented per- sons from going on 1t. It was raised by the wind to the full height of the cables and then dashed down, carrying heavy stones with it.
 The workmen have promptly commenced removing the ruins of the bridge from the river, but as the structure was immense, and the ca bles still attached to the wood work, 1t may cause a few days suspension of navigation

WHY NOT EMIGRATE?-Mr. Edmund Jen- nings, vice president director and correspond ing secretary of the American anti-slaverv socity, in the course of speech made by him at the meeting of the association in New York week, took occasion to say that l" he scarcely knew of a government in the world that is not better to live under than ours." Now, we should like to know what it is that prevents MT. Edmund Jenning from departing out of our land and becoming the happy occupant of some other and more favored land than this? Who would stay him?
