The State Canvass.

The Gazette & Democrat of the 2Sth
instant, contains extracts from a number
of private letters from different portions
of the State, giving highly favorable ac-
counts of the prospects of the American
party in the State. A correspondent of
the Gazette, writing from Union county,
says:
'The Democracy of one of the town
ships met in Convention and 1esolued not
to cote for Warren under ann circuna-
stances
From Crittenden, Ouachita, Franklin,
Columbia and Phillips counties, the ac-
counts are of the most cheering descrip-
ton. Gen. Yell has been making telling
speeches in Franklin.
Col. Grace will meet Gen. Hampstead
at his appointments, as published in our
columns. Col. G.. and Gen. II. speak at
this place on Thursday, the 18th instant.
We hope there will be full turn out of
the friends of the American party on that
occasion Col. Grace is fully able to do
the agreeable to Gen. Hampstead, and we
promise all who go to hear him, an excel
lent speech.

Circuit Court.

We inadvertently omitted, in our last
issue, to refer to the recent laborious ses-
sion of the Circuit Court of this county.
A vast amount of business, which has
been on hand and harassing the court,
the bar and the itigants with its long
protracted delays and the vexations ari-
sing therefrom, has been disposed Of
The chancery docket has been cleared,
and suits which have been pending for
years have been decided to the satisfac.
tion, doubtless, of some of the parties,
and beyond question, to the delight OF
clerks, sherifs and attornies, who have
been thumbing the musty old records until
patience itself was sick of them. And
1t IS source of pleasure with us to have
1t In our power to utter the united voice
OF the Bar and the people, and assert
that to his honor, Judge Stith's prompt
ness, untiring industry, determination,
impartiality and ability, very large
amount of credit should be attached.
The people chose well in selecting him to
pass upon their rights, and he well and
nobly repays the confidence and trust
which they reposed in him, By administer
ing the laws without fear, favor or affec-
tion." And his honor bids fair to become
as popular Judge as his election proved
him to be highly esteemed as sound
lawyer and clever gentleman.

Our Table.

Godey's Lady's Book for July. is before
US, and fully comes up to the standard of
this favorite of the fair sex.
The Southern Literary Messenger for
June, has Just reached US; the number is
unusually interesting. The first article. an
address upon the subject of ''The true the
cry of Government" by the late Judg ge
Upshur. is very interesting and instructive
Another article, The Conservatism of
Slavery" review of an article from the
Lenden Times, Is also we'll worthy of notice;
and as a whole the contents of this number
of the Southern Literary-long oae of our
favorites- fully sustains its well-earned rep

which renders it eminently worthy of the
liberal support of the reading public of the

dollars per annum if paid in advance, or
four dollars at the end of the year. We
earnestly recommend it to such of our friends

it, as he trod, '.with painful steps," the
"giddy steep which leads from the land
ing up to the store of our correspondent
guess who. We opine that the more
cur friends IN Little Rock see of Mr..
Garland, the better they will like him,
for he possesses all the attributes of head
and heart which are calculated to make a
man beloved by his associates. We are
sure that prosperous and brilliant career
awaits our friend in his new home; and
right earnestly do we wish-and our wish
is but the echo of the wishes of his troops
of friends here and wherever he is known
that fortune may smile upon him, and
that every aspiration for success which
may nerve him on in his struggles for an
honorable name and fame, may be fully
realized. And may he find among the
warm hearts of the people of his new
home, proverbial as they are, for their
generosity, legion of friends to be ad-
ded to the associates of his early man hood,
but not to usurp or drive them from their
place in his memory.

The Fourth.

The anniversary of the Declaration Of
our Nations Independence, will be appro-
priately celebrated by the citizens of this
place. DIR. s. H. Harvey will read the
Declaration. and Mr.: J. NJ Killgore, of
the Hampstead Democrat. will deliver an
address on the occasion. At the instance
of several of our citizens, we beg leave to
suggest. that it would be an appropriate
time for the taking up of collection as a
contribution to the Washington Monument
building fund. If our readers see fit to
act in the premises. it would perhaps be
we'll. before the reading of the Declaration,
to take formal steps for the appointment of
committee to visit the audience either be-
fore or after the ceremonies, to take the

All Right in "Old Sewer"

T. Our friends in Sewer county have COM
pleted their arrangements for Free Bar
becue" on the day of Col. FowLER's ap-
pointment at Paraclifta, the 18th day of
this month. A hearty invitation is extend
ed to ALL to come up and see what the
Americans In Sewer can do when they feel
like making demonstration in favor of
their principles. The antics have declined
the polite invitation given them by the
American Party, to contribute to the fur
nishing of the feast, so it will devolve upon
SANS boys" to feed all who are present.
1t will give them real pleasure to do that
same-won't it? Of course it will. Ral-
ly, then. on that day. S
we have heard it in.imated that the
reason the antics up Gin that neck" re-
fused to cooperate with their American
friends, is. because Warren stock is rather
at discount with the leaders of the De-
mocracy in that region.

Indian Outrage on the Choctaw Line at
the Place of W. Blackwell.
SEWER COUNTY, ARK's,

SEWER COUNTY, ARK's,
June Goth, 1856.
MEssRs. EDITORS On the Sth instant,
difficulty took place at Mr.. Blackwelrs,
on the Choctaw line, which resulted in
the death of two men. The particulars
are as follows: A Mr.. Harman had ta-
ken up an estray horse. An Indian, name
not known, came to Mr.. Harman and
claimed the horse, saying he knew where
it was posted on Red river. Mr.. Uarman
told him to tell the owner to come and get
his horse by proving property, &C., under
the .estray law. The Indian then swore
he would take the horse, and made an at
tempt so to do. Mr.. Harman resisted,
when the Indian ran to where his gun
was and commenced priming her. A by
stander, Mr.. j. N. Monroe, attempted to
prevent the Indian from shooting by catch
ing the gun. Failing to do this, the In
dian shot Mr.. NJ, killing him instantly.
Mr.. Blackwell caught the Indian and CALI
ed to Harman for help. Harman, pro-
ceeding to assist to take the Indian into
custody, took Monroe's pistol out of his
pocket. AS Monroe fell the Indian took
his knife and commenced cutting at Har-
man and Blackwell, crying out, ''Let me
60" They let him loose and as he ran
off Harman fired at him and shot him
down. [ understand the Indian is dead.
l do not know that any arrests have been
made up to this time, and suppose there
will not be any, as a matter of course.
Very respectfully. yours,

WASHINGTON THURSDAY, June 18
In the Senate, Mr.. Douglas offered a
resolution for the adjournment of Congress
on the first Tuesday of July. Mr. Weller
thought it was better to let the resolution lie
over, as it would be impossible to get
through the business by that time. Upon
this suggestion the resolution was with
drawn, and the Senate adjourned over to
Monday.
