The Speaking on Monday.
 Hon. E. A. WARREN, on Monday last ad- dressed large crowd at the court hous, made up of democrats, whigs and native Americans on the subject of native Americanism. We heard but portion of his speech, being called away; but if that which we did not hear, was like that we did hear, the democratic party have great cause of eXultation,--for more mastery and successful effort at SPINNING po- litical party we never listened to. And what made his remarks doubly effective was that he dealt in no abuse of the opposite party. He appealed to the judgment of his hearers and relied upon argument and facts to sustain him in his positions. Not having heard his whole speech, We are not competent to decide on its full merits. We will notice only one or two of his positions
 Mir. Warren asserted that the native Ameri- can party were responsible for the present free soil Congress. He challenged denial of this assertion. He showed that every northern de- mocratc member of Congress who voted with the south on the passage of the Nebraska Kan- sas bill, and who was candidate for re-election had been defeated and that anti Nebraska men were returned in their places, and that this was done by the American party. He showed that since this new party had sprung into existence, there have been United States Senatorial elec- tions in six northern States electing seven Se- nators, and that every one of these Senators, was an abolitonst or free -soiler and elected by the Massachusetts, New York, Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, and New Hampshire. The Senators elected are WILSON, SEWARD, DURKEE, TRUM- BULL, HARLAN, HALE, and BELL. Wilson, Seward and Hale, are avowed abolitionists-the others are called free -soilers by their friends, but we call them all aboitionists-ED Mr w. said the party south, in the case of these elections could not plead that they were not responsible for them, on account of the split, north and south, in the party on the slavery question, for every one of these elections, both for Senators and Congressmen, were held before the Phlladelph convention convened; and while the party was north and south one party in name and in purpose. This statement told with tremendous force on the audience.
 Mir. w. then showed that the southern DOT ton of the party, were not acting noble and manly part in relation to the Catholic test. He showed that in five of the southern States, this test has been abolished, while in the remaining ten 1t Is yet in force. In Louisiana they are running Catholics for Governor, Lieutenant Governor and Auditor of State, while in Ar kansas the identical same party swear their members not to vote for a Catholic He asked the reason of this double dealing It was, he said, because in Louisiana they could not hope to succeed without the Catholic vote, while in Arkansas there were no Catholics to vote for. | His remarks on this question, were very point ed when addressed to protesting christians, and told with tremendous force as we could see by 1 the flushed faces of some present.
 At thlS stage Ot hlS remarks we were called | l,ol +,,, Ioa, 1 conclusion. We are sorry we did not hear him out as then we might have been better prepar- ed to do him justice. We are satisfied how ever from mixing with the crowd, and hearing their comments, that he nobly sustained him. self throughout and that the democratic party have in him talented and able defender of it's principles and the American party an nvinc- ble opponent. Long will Sum remember the triumphant arguments of the Hon. E. A. War ren in Philadelphia, on the 17th day of Septem- Der, 1855.
 After Col. Warren had concluded his exposi- ton of the phases of the American party, he alluded to the islanders of certain of their organs Tn relation to his opposition to the Hon. R. w. Johnson. He said 1t was true that, in 1S40 he (Warren) had voted for the now senior editor of the Gazette and Democrat" because he be- lleved he was good and true democrat, but that soon as he (Borland) abandoned the principles of the democratic party he acted to- wards him as the democratic party did towards Mir. Van Buren, when he assumed doctrines contrary to the principles of said party. He said that he did not feel called upon to defend the Hon. R. w. J Johnson for the reasons that the votes and acts of Mir. Johnson were a suf- ticient vindication of his fidelity to the demo- cratic party. He unhestatingly endorsed MT. Johnson as the most faithful and energetic Se- nator Arkansas has had since his residence in the State; that the attempt to create strife between himself and Mir. J ohnson was resorted to by the native Americans to forestall his efforts in be- half of TRUE democratic principles; but such attempts will fail, as they should, when brought before an intelligent community
 Mir. Warren's candor, and his justice to Mr. Johnson, did him great honor, and gained him no disrespect here. unless it should be from those who are disappointed in not setting these democratic champions at enmity with each other.
 Mir. Warren in the course of his remarks, stated that he had received letter after letter, from various portions of the district advising him that now was the time to strike, and crush the Johnson infuence; and soliciting him to join the new party to this end. We were not before aware the leaders of the new party had the presumption to suppose that they could buy a sterling democrat with such glittering baubles They walked up the wrong passen- ger" when they made these overtures to MT. Warren.
 In the afternoon the democrats assembled at the court house and formed democratic as- sociation-forty- one good and true democrats signed the constitution at the time When the meeting adjourned, it adjourned to meet again the first Saturdayin October, at the courthouse in this place.
 At nightit is said that the native American party held a meeting at the Odd Fellows hall. We are under the impression that there were not more tban fve Hundred additions to their par ty at this meeting; while we know of two who belonged to them before, a0ho sOiU mever meet a0ith them again.
 The contest has now fairly begun in this county; and it behooves every good and we'll disposed friend to his country to buckle on his armor and do battle for bis country. The Ame- rican party will leave no effort untried to carry their points, by organizing in every part of the country. It is desperate game they have to play, and we'll they know it. All the
