Know-Nothing Pietv.

The following Is in relation to the first clause of the know nothing platform--iti is from the pen of J. c. RIvEs, one of the purest and best of men. The acknowledgment of an Almighty Be- ing who rules the Universe" to say the least of it, is out of place in political platform and prostitution of a cause which every party in this country respects and reveres It is cul- pablo effort to introduce religion into politics and hallow political crusade that has no jus tiicaton whatever--it is culpabe because it is an attempt to enlist the fanaticism that now sweeps the northern .sStates. It is eth CT this, or it is, as Mir. Rives describes it, the produc- ton of guilty conscience--a salvo for the falsehood that the members were sworn to per petrate when they swore to deny, as they did deny, their connexion with a secret order and even the existence of any such order.
 The first clause solemnly acknowledges the existence of an Almighty Being who rules the Universe, ]" which. until we saw that con- fession of faCh, we supposed was acknowledged everywhere by all men and parties and factions by the American party even until this manifesto ton of solcitude to show to the world that. WHdt6FeI eISe lb may Dc Il Is HOG dtucISGlCdl.-- This is an instance of overdoing thing, of overacting part; for this solemn annunciation seems to be as much the child of hypocrisy as the child of religion. Why assert so solem- ly and so formally what nobody would have questioned if they had been silent, unless sacred things are to be invoked for unhallowed pur- poses, or unless conscience which makes cow ards of all men, was not smiting then and there the know nothing oracles? The draughts- man of that first clause must be a reader of Shakespeare, we think, and had in his mind that celebrated police officer Captain Dogberry, who, in Much Ado About Nothing, says::some things singularly ooincidental with the first clause of the platform:
 "Dogb Masters do you serve God?
 Con. Bora. Yea, sir, we hope.
 Dogb Write, down--that they hope they serve God:-and write God first; God defend but God should go before such villians!'
 So the platform makers wrote God first, and like Conrade and Borachio, would fain make the world believe they serve him also. We do not apply the world viUiars to the know-noth- ings, be it observed. For some of them whom we know we have personally much respect; for their political opinions, and for their plat form nOne

Condition of the Treasury of Arkansas.

The last True Democrat publishes the report of A. H. Rutherford, esq, State Treasurer, in answer to a request of Gov. Conway for the same, in relation to the number and amount of State bonds issued to the Real Estate Bank, and coupons for interest due on Real Estate Bank bonds, cancelled and delivered up to him; also how many State bonds issued to the State Bank, have been cancelled and filed in the State Treasury since 3Oth September, 1854, as we'll as the condition of the State Treasury on the 1st July, 1855.
 The facts developed by this report of the Treasurer afford glorious vindicaton of the'po-
 cy of Gov. Conway, to whose judgment and foresight the greatest commendation is due- The welfare and prosperity of Arkansas, and the honorable liquidation of her debts, has ever been the cherished object of the present Gov ernor since he came into office; and though his name be villified and islanders heaped upon his head, by interruptions and designing enemies, his reputation and political honesty will ever retain for him the affections and support of grateful people. He has labored on amid the murmurs and oboquy of few who have sought to crush him, and now the fruits of his tolls begin to develop themselves, and show to the people that their trust has been honored instead of abused by him.
 The report ot the treasurer snOWS that the sum of SEVEN HUNDRED AND FORTY THOUSAND, NINE HUNDRED AND sEvENTY-sEvEN DOLLARS AND SIXTY THREE CENTS of the debt of the State of Arkansas, on account of the Bank of the State of Arkansas and the Real Estate Bank of the State of Arkansas, have been cancelled and filed aoiM tue Treasurer Gas fully paid off, since tue 20h September, 1854. Nearly seven hundred and Jtorty-one thousand dollars of the State debt has thus been cancelled and plotted out forev- CT. And if this policy, so wisely advocated by Gov. Conway, is prudently and strictly pursu- ed we have good reason to expect soon the en- tire liquidation of our State debt.
 This report also affords the gratifying ntelli- gence that there is now in the treasury the sum of $65,510 15, with outstanding and unre- deemed sctip to the amountof only $1, ,4463 n, which redeemed, leaves balance of sirtu-tour tho,tsand end tortysi1 dollars and torty -four cents in gold and silver.

Mississippi, Ouachita and Red Ri
 yer Railroad.

The following, from the Picayune, will show the interest felt in New Orleans in the railroad improvement of our State. The steps taken by the Mississippi, Ouachita and Red river rail- load company, in connecting itself with the Texas roads will add much to strengthen itself Lloyd Tilghman, whose vigilance perseverance and talents have added so largely to put this road upon its present footing, too much cannot be said His efforts are not confined however, to this one scheme of improvement they are felt in another portion of our State. He has already placed the Pine Bluff and Napoleon road upon secure foundation. We bid him success in his patriotic endeavors: Important Railroad Union.
 We find in the Camden (Ark.) Herald, of the 18th ult., the announcement of an impor- tant agreement which has just been concluded for the junction of the Mississippi, Ouachita and Red river railroad company of the State, and the Texas, Fl Paso, and Pacific railroad company of Texas It was concluded at Lew isville, in Lafayette county, on the 21st ult., by mmissioners appointed by the two companies l The details are to DC put into form at meet ing of persons duly authorized for the purpose which will be held at Clarksville on the 23d ot August.
 MT. Lloyd Tilghman, chief engineeer of the Mississippi, Ouachita and Red river company, writes that the point of connection between the two roads, has been agreed upon. It is to be not further north than the center of township 15, nor south of township r, in the State ol Arkansas-the precise point to be designated and agreed upon by the engineers of the re- spective companies, subject to the approval ol their boards.
 The Texas company undertakes to lend all its aid to the immediate completion of the east ern road. The general stipulation is that the Texan shall loan the other company $3OO,OO0 in four annual installments, reimbursable in freights on the road, and shall aid by the en- dorsement of the bonds required to be issued for the completion of the road, securing them upon the large land grants in Texas, the whole Eastern road when completed to be pledged for the prosecution of the roads in and through Texas.
 Mr. Tilghman expresses the most absolute confidence that his road will be completed from the Mississippi river to Camden in 1856. and that the Texas aid will complete the whole line to the Texas frontier in 1858.

tions of the slavery question, and into another struggle for the principle "asat Congress has TO po,cer over the subject cf slavery."
 Will the people of Arkansas consent to such a step? Will they follow the advice of the Gazette? Will they give up and sacrifice those democrats in the north who stood by the south in opposing the torrent of abolitionism which was poured out upon her in the last Congress? We don't-we can't believe it. They will never consent to yield the principle "tAat Con- gress has no poa0er over tue subject of szavery," so happi y established by the Nebraska act.
The true Democrat., 1855-07-24
tied the slavery question for the country! They

tied the slavery question for the country! They have left tito future agitation; left it open; they have left the abolitionists of their order free to renew and continue their assaults upon us, and invited them to struggle for majority in Con- gress where hey&might, under the know nothing platform, undo all that the democratic party has done; where they might nullify, if not repeal, this saving clause in the Nebraska act.
 1.-The eighth section of the act preparatory to the admission of Missouri into the Union, being inconsistent w'h the principle cf mon-nterventaon by Congress aciub slaveryim tue States and Isrri- torres os recognized by the baslation of 1850 con monty called tue compromise measures is hereby declared imperative and void it being the true intent and meaning of this act not to legislate slavery into any Territory or State, nor to ex- clude 1t therefrom, but to eave tue people herecf perecty free to form and regulatethe domestic in ststutloras an Meir oa0n aoay," etc.
 Such is the know nothing platform as en- dorsed by the Gazette! and assuch is not worth the support of the south. If it is adopted by the south instead of the democratic and whig platforms, all the south has gained by the es- tablishment of the principle that Congress has no poeoer over tue subject cf slavery" will be lost and will be undone. We have no other guar antee against northern aggression. The north has the power in Congress- and if left to act upon the know nothing platform, it will prohi- bit slavery in all the territories, and thus pre- ventthe admission of any more slave States into the Union. Such is the course of know noth- ingism!
 But even on the supposition that the know nothing platform was as good as the democratic or whig platform of what account is it to the country? The know nothings, who framed and adopted it. were, with the exception of portion of the New York delegation, all south erners. The northern portion of the party withdrew, and even Louisiana in the south has withdrawn. It IS but a sectional party. The democratic platform is nataonaI-it commands the support of the whole democratic party of the Union. It was adopted in the Baltimore convention unaninaously. There were no sece- ders there. The whole party united upon the platform, and since, have elected President and Congress who, in repeating the Missouri compromise, have faithfully redeemed the pledge and carried out the principle so dear to the south, tAot Congress has no posoer over tue subject cf s1avery in Me territories. Under all these circumstances, no man in his sober senses can leave either the whig or democratic plat form to stand upon that of the know nothngs The know nothing platform pyete,mits-passes by the only question i'll which the south now feel deep interest. Can the south submit to such can she give up the fruits of the victory she has won? We answer, no. She has the vantage ground now, and must maintain it-she must p'ete,naat nothing.
