Col. Flournoy.

We are in receipt of several letters from
prominent Democrats Of most cheering
character. The Democracy of this district
are united firmly in the support of Col.
Flournoy. The Glasgow Times, while NJ

ley, has been very beneficial towards Col.
Flournoy. 1t is admitted by all honorable
men (Whlgs and Democrats that Flournoy
is consistent politician, and the sIanderous
attacks Of the Times, has enlisted a large
number of the friends of Col. Benton in Col.

You must be in close communion with
the Benton democracy, Mr.. Banner. Flour
hoy was consistent in his opposition TO Ben

times, straight along. This is "sanderous
attack" and no doubt ''has enlisted large
number Of the friends of Col. Benton in Col.
Flournoy's behalf''-in horn!
Flournoy voted for the Jackson resolu-
tons, which is another 'slanderous attack
and has doubtless had the effect Of drawing
Benton men to him-over the leW
Thus far Flournoy has been "a consis

The steamer Franklin left Cowes on the

A military insurrection headed by O'Don-

out towards Toledo.
LArEsr.-Madrid covered with barri-
cades--The garrison fraternising with the
surgents-O'Donnell threatening to at
tack the Palace.
Intelligence to the 3Oth states that the
town was much agitated. Insurgents TO the
amount of 1000 were at the camp O'Del-
more about gun shot from the palace
Gen. Azarrio, Director of the artillery, had
refused to attack them, although protesting
his fidelity to the Queen. Gen. Lara has
refused, on the pretext that he could not rely
on the garrison.
O'Donnell, it was said, had summoned the
Queen to change her ministry. Unless she
did so he would attack the town the same
morning.
Subsequent advices to the I'd inst. state
that Madrid was carried in the barricade,
the populace crying out death to Sarstoria.

" Mr.. Flournoy lays great stress OF
his being the regular nominee. He was
nominated by T. regular convention. That
convention was composed of delegates from
eight counties, and the district is composed
of eighteen. We find no fault of this, if the
ten counties unrepresented do not--but it is
fair inference that those counties, in part,
were satisfied with Lindley, and intend to
support him. Graves and Patterson are
regular nominees, too. Compare their uni
ted vote with the Democratic strength Of
the county, and see how it looks.

Forty Votes Against Benton.

The Antics are attempting TO create the
impression that the entire Benton strength
of this District will be cast for Flournoy.
This is what they wish, and hence they say
it will be so. We imagine the Benton dem
ocrats of the District have not forgotten the
fact that Flournoy was o member of the
Legislature when Col. Benton was defeated
for the Senate, and that he voted
FORTY consecutive times AGAINST Benton!
In the forty ballots that were taken for Sen
ator he stood against Benton, every pass!-
He could vote FOR Green, for Hough, fol
Strngfelow, but never for Benton. Wher
the Benton men vote against him forty times
the account will be even, and then they cal
start fresh.
With what face can Flournoy ask Ben
ton man to vote for him? How can lie eX
pect it? Does he think they forget his vote
too, in favor of the celebrated Jackson
Napton qualification resolutions;which wer
designed to instruct Col. Benton out Of tn
Senate? We think Flournoy and his friend
will find they have counted their chicken
too early. The election will show they ar
mistaken. Many of the Benton democrats
| like COL Benton, will prefer ia wing TO
nullifer," and others will not vote at all
and the result will be, Lindley, who ha
made good representative, will be re-elec
ted.

EASY NAT, TALE OF LIFE IN New York
MD BosroN. By A. l.. STrMsoN. DERBY, PARK
PIAcE.-The author Of this pleasant and in
structive story has given us acorrect and prac-
teal view of the every day life of the great
Atlantic cities, differing widely in its shrewd
ness Of observation, power of philosophical ana
lysis and genial humor, from the tawdry, slip
shod, artificial philanthropy and sentiment OF
the Five Points school Of fiction, as does nature
from the Alterations Of art. Easy Nat" is
one OF those successful efforts at the delneaton
of social peculiaritics which at once stamI
their author with literary fame. Its characters
are 50 truthfully and vigorously sketehed that
whilst we recognise the general fidelity of each
to its class, we feel that it ia also carefully
studied portrait from individual life. The
Yankee, John Hard, and little Scratch Gravel,
the newsboy, seem to US familiar acquaint-
ances, standing out in as bold and broad relief
from the pages OF our author, as If they were
present to our vision. The moral of the tale Is
excellent 1t illustrates the characters typifed
in three kinds Of youth--the first, a lad Of cor
rect principles, industrious habits and correct
ambition; the second, good hearted, easy boy.
full Of mirth and conviviality, and easily led
astray by others; and the third, youth preco-
cious in vice and in low and degrading indul-
genccs. II is unnecessary for US to follow out
these several characteristics to their results.
Suffice it to say, that The author has developed
them with skill and Righteousness ef humor
which serve all the more forcibly to impress
upon The mind The value of the lessons incul-
Gated
