Wheelba1row Manufactory.

There are few branches of mechanical iudus. try which are not carried on in Cincinnati We were the more strongly impressed with this truth on visiting Mr. Rockeys establishment for the manufacture of Wheebarrows for rail- road, canal and other similar purposes, by steam machinery, by which means they can be afford ca at comparatively low price
 hls establishment, one of the most exten- siVe ana admirably arranged in the Union, and me only one of the kind at the West, is locat- ed on the Hamilton road. at the head Of Vine street. The premises are large and commodi- ous, and furnished with labor-saving machinery of the most modern kind: among which we note novel swing saw for cutting the timber: lathes for turning the hubs, rims. etc. rnachinos for cutting felloes without need of patterns. an paratus for shaping the boards of the hot+oroS and sides of the barrows also; tenoning. boring mortising and punching machines; in fact every facility for manufacturing cheaply and effectn. ally, all driven by thirty horse power engine
 The large number of railroads and other building improvements, now going on at the West, has caused a demand for the barrows- Mr. Rockey has so arranged his business as to be prepared at all times to supply any orders that may be sent him. We commend him to railroad officers, contractors, and others in want ot barrows, and sincerely trust that he will meet with the success his enterprise SO richly merits.-Roilrood Record

and will you not now support Borland in per- ference to Johnson? You will And as a general thing, the whig members that may be elected to the legislature perhaps all of them will do the same thing. To retort on you the charge of vassalage- Kourmoster requires it, and you dare not refuse.
 To the democrats of Clark county,-we say: the leaven is already at work to deprive you of your choice for a U. s. Senator. Be wary.- Exact from aH who propose for your suffrages, a promise to vote for MT. JOHNSON; and if any will not give it, lay them aside--for they will as assuredly vote against him, as that you elect them. Remember these things, especial ly you who have settled upon the public lands within the "railroad reservation,o and for whom Mr. Johnson has done such good service We discharge our duty in warning you in tine There are candidates before you who will give the pledge without blushing and who will keep their promise to the letter; and yet look upon neither you nor themselves as '' be- loning to Mir. Johnson.''

Democratic Meetino

At large and respectable meetino of tba do mocracy of St. Francis county. assembled o+ Mt. Vernon, on Monday the 18th dav of May 1854, for the purpose of holding a convention to nominate suitable candidates to renrasort the democratic party of St. Francis county in the next Legislature of the State Col. john w. Calvert was called to the chair, and Georgo W. Seaborn was appointed secretary; the ob- ject of the convention having been explained to the meeting by the chairman: It was moved by Col. Edward Mallory, that committee bn appointed to prepare and report suitable reso. lutlons to the convention, said motion beine, carried in the affirmative, the convention an7 pointed the following gentlemen on said com mlttee: John Mcdaniel, Calbert Caldwell. Ed ward Mallory, Philander, Lttell, Wm. A. Jones Geo. w. Lane, James Roy, Thomas Acerton Daniel Ayers, Cornelius Davis. The c6p,.~it tee havlng retired for short time, retur!ed to the convention, and reported the lollowipq ro- solutions:
 1st. Resolved, That we decline makino anv nomination for the Senate. But that Colonor Mark w. Izard is our first choice. And it ;s our wish that the democracy of Poinsett conn ty, meet the democracy of St. Francis in con vention at Wittsburg, on the 2nd Monday in June next, to nominate suitable candidate for the State Senate. '''
 2nd Resolued That having full confidence in our esteemed fellow citizen, Col. Samuel l. Austell and Britan P. Garner, we do hernb,, nominate them as suitable persons to represent this county in the next Legislature of tbo State. 0
 3rd. Resolved, That we admire the firm and consistent course of our esteemed fellow citiznn Hon. Robert W. Johnson, and he deserves onr thanks for his efforts upon the overhowed and swamp land acts, and railroad donations to onr State; and we earnestly desire his election to the U. $. Senate, the field of his future use, fulness.
 4th Resolyed That every democrat of the counties of St. Francis and Ponsett is hereby invited to attend the convention at Witrsburg6 on the 2nd Monday in June next to take part III the dellberatlon of said convention.

Col. Rector and the Gazette

The agility of the Gazette in executing so- mersets continues to excite wonder in political circles. Its opinions of men and of measures of political questions and questions of internal Improvements, and of democratic conventions undergo changes with a rapiditv truly wonder tul and surprising.
 One day, its editor acts as the delegate of county meeting and in apparent good earnest hess eudeavors to carry out its instructions the next, t condemns that county meeting and denonnces 1t as an abortion" which did "u4 represent 15e aeiU Q t5e epa,ty!' One day it ad- vocates the nomination of an individual as the democratic candidate for Congress, because of his democracy. the next, 1t opposes his cleo ton to the Le- stature because he is not good democrat!
 Soit goes and thus it will continue to %. until shorn of its little remaining power and ;nau- ence, i passes away among tho things that once were.
 The Gazette speaks of Col Rector as a .jac- t.ot5st o5,a proscrgp'ionis1'| What chance has come over it since last spring a year ago. when, at the Hot Springs and last May, when. 3; Princeton. its editor, inc Captain. advocated his nomination for Congress, What a change since last November, when it euoesed him as a gentleman occupying high position before thc people of the State'' These changes are remarkable. Having sought. with so much avldlty, the elevation of Col Rector to the high honors Of seat in Congress, the Pulaski de- nlocracy naturally thought that his election to the State Legislature would fe both acceptable and agreeable 10 it
 But they were mistaken. In making no- mination that would enlist the support of the Gazette, they had forgotten an incident jn ,be contest of 1848 for Auditor.
 For his election the Captain is indebted to the Whigs, and principally, to one of the pre- sent whig opponents of Messrs. Rector and Martin. He was elected by one voc. and that vote was given by the present whg candidate. Hence the folly of the democrats expecting aid from the Gazette, bound down, as 1t is, bv the strongest ties to the whigs.
 When the personal interests of the editor of the Gazette clash with the interests of the de- mocracy, the latter is always made to yield h no one single instance has that paper ever been known to make sacrifice to the party in no one single instance has it ever pursued disinterested course in advocacy of its princi- ples. Such is it's democracy For personal triumph it would desert its party and discard it's principles. Its selfshness is so supreme that 1t wou'd forsake any cause or betray any man to secure its own aggrandizement

Railroads.

We have been highly honored within the last few days by hattering invitations to be pre- sent on the .tourtA of July, at meeting of the directors of the Little Rock, Pine Bzuf; and Na- pozeon Raalroad Company at Pine Bluff; and at barbecue to be given on the same day at Helena "at which time it is proposed to cele- brate the commencement of the work on the Midland railroad;'' and at Camden, on the 9th of July, at the ''ceremony of breaking ground on the Mississippi, Ouachita and Red river rail- road.''
 These three enterprises located in different portions of the State, and promising such glo- rious benefits to the people, are intimately con- nected with the future growth and prosperity of Arkansas. The railroad from Little Rock to Napoleon, running through asecton of coun- try as rich and fertile as any in the world, is now just in its inception. Having been taken up by the people from Pine Bluff to Napoleon. it is now being placed upon a foundation that will, it is earnestly to be hoped, soon bripe aboutits construction. Along the line of this road there IS immense wealth, the country through which 1t passes IS level and will require but lit tie of embankment or grading The construc ton of this road is project we deem within the means of the stockholders, and when it shall be completed, will make the counties of Jefferson, Arkansas and Desha as rich and nros- porous as the most favored ones now in the State
 
 Ot the Helena road we have often had occa sion to speak. The industry, perseverance and energy heretofore shown by the friends of this scheme entitle them to the bright prospect now before them On the toptb of July, the great commencement will be made A portion of the road has been put out under contract and the ceremony of breaking ground'' will take place the fourth of July next. We look forward with the most pleasrrably sensations to the day when the locomotive will come steaming through from Helena to the capital
 And the work has commenced too in earnest upon the Camden railroad On the 9th of July the first commencement will be made. This road has been brought to it's present state of prosperity by the most unwearied efforts of its friends. With asmall beginning, it has arisen to be project of the brightest promise All South Arkansas, to whose improvement and growth this railroad is so essentially important, will hail the day of it's commencement with the highest degree of satisfaction
 The amount of stock, we believe, necessary to the completion of the Camden road from the Mississippi to Red river has been pretty nearly all taken, and it only remains now to wait pa- tiently very few years until the work can be completed.
 It is with regret we are unable to accept the invitations which have been 50 kindly and flat teringlv extended to us. These three roads. all running from the Mississippi river, the great channel of the western commerce, into the heart of the State, will, when completed. raise the prosperity of Arkansas to a height surpas- sed by that of no other State in our glorious cenfederacv

 DEAR JOHNsON-We have learned out here with great deal Of pleasure, the proceedings ot the democratic convention, held at Little Rock on Saturday last. Owing to incessant ram our primary meeting failed, and conse. quently We were not represented as I should wish, and we feared that old Pulaski would carry things her own way, in the district con- Vention, having the majority of votes: but we have been convinced that there is a spirit of justice towards our county n the bosom of the Pulaski democracy, that Is highly gratifying 10 sec.
 The democracy of this county are highly pleased at the selection, and Iocten will carry the county by sweeping majority We all know him well: he lives among us. anu the bet ter IotJcn is known the better he is liked. and the more we become acquainted with him the better are we satisfied ot his qualification 10 fill the station that he has been called to become candidate ior; and Shy f without ;hc fear of contradiction, that there $ not a man in the dis trct in whose judgment, good sense and buSi- ness qualifications there is to be placed frmer reI,ence than iii his, and in the important mea- >urcs that will be before tha next Legislature none will make d more useful member of the Senate.
 If Pulaski and Perry will dc their duty he wili bc elected by good majority.

RAPE AND MURDER.-We clip the follow ing account of most brutal outrage from the Memphis Enquirer, of the 18th:
 We are deeply pained to announce the oc- currence, in Marshall county, Miss, near Gnu lahoma, on Saturday last, of one of the most wicked and nefarious deeds of which We can possibly conceive The retributon. however. was as fearful as the deed was dark and damn Ing On Saturday morning, the wife of re- spectacle planter of Marshall county, Miss. ) left her dwelling and went to the field near the house, tor the purpose of seeing to some of her domestic arrangements, when she was seized oy negro man, belonging to her husband, who was blowing in the field, and her person yiolat- ed in the most unhallowed manner. She was then choked to death. After the occurrence had become known, the neighbors pursued and overlook the villain with bloodhounds, and dis posed of him in the following manner: After suffering the dogs to handle his person for some time, they hung him. The lady had been re- gently married. Torture would have been too lenient punishment for the scoundrel.

From the Van Buren Intelligencr

DRowNED-Mr TURNER II. BUcKxER. a citizen of Union county, Ark, was drowned in the Arkansas river near Fort Gibson. C. N. on the 9th inst He was on his way to California with large drove of cattle, and had succeeded in getting all of his cattle across the river when he discovered one of his men, who in at tempting to cross, had got into deep water and was drowning He immediately went to his assistance; the drowning man quickly grappled hold of him, and both sank under the water The poor man remained under the water and was not seen any more. MT. Buckner, how ever, rose to the top but being too much ex hausted he simply moved his hand in token of distress, and sank to rise 10 more. Mr. Buck her had been in this section of country but q short time, sufficiently long, however, to win the esteem and respect of all who knew him.
