A Voice from Fairwav.

Every body knows who IN" of "Fairway" is. He is one of the oracles of Know Moth ingsm in these parts, writes good deal for the papers, and is fond of blundering upon incon- sistencies and absurdites. We will llustrate
 The last Gazette contains a set of resolutions which were introduced by him in the Fillmore club and adopted An extract from one of them is as follows:
 |" And believing hat by united action, and un- ceasi,g abo,, aoe can carry his State ID November nert, for Fillmore and Donelson, we can not too earnestly impress upon our friends the necess- ty of going to work in earnest"
 In these resolutions, introduced by him, he expresses the belief that the State can be car ried for Fillmore and Donelson. In the same issue of the Gazette, in the same column, in letter from Farway," apologizing for Yell's defeat, he says, "he soho ever d,ougH sue ,oouM % for Fillmore, did not eranaine tue past record"
 Thus we have the politician from Fairway'y expressing his behef that Arkansas can be car ried for Fillmore, and, at the same time, declar- ing any one who has such belief to be ignorant of the "past record.' So much for N. .'s' in- consistency!
 Now for one of his absurditi.s. He feels little mortified after his loud "croaoing'' before the election, acknowledges he was not sincere in it. and says he is "excusable." Hear him:
 "It is true we have crowel some-that is always excusable, when mans in tight place."
 Now, Colonel, you may honestly think so, but those too credulous individuals who beiev- ed your crowing sincere, bet their money and lost lit, will hardly hold you excused-not they!
The true Democrat., 1856-08-19
The Talent of the Country against Fillmore and Fremont.

It is singular fact that scarcely man of eminence, upon whom the country loves to place its affections, can be found in the ranks of either the Fillmore or Fremonts supporters Here at the south there are but two men of any national reputation who support Fillmore, and they are mere silent upporters--Crtten- den of Kentucky and Bell of Tennessee The two Senators from Maryland Pratt and Pearce, and Taylors attorney general, Revedy John son all three old-line whigs, who were loved and honored of their party, are out in strong appeals for Buchanan. We could mention a host of others.
 Clayton, |. s. Senator from Delaware an od-line whig, will not support either Fillmore or Fremont. His colleague, Senator Bayard, so stated in speech recently This fact in- sures Delaware for Buchanon-the only doubt full southern State.
 J. 5. Clay, oldest son of Henry Clay, and J. Scott Harrison, son of the late President Harrison, both old-lne whigs, are for Bucha- nan.
 With the whole democratic party and the talent and patriotism of the old whig party to support him, who can doubt the success J James Buchanan?
The true Democrat., 1856-08-19

l<DR. A. S. HUEy.-In publishing Dr. Huey's card, last week, denying that any letter receiv- ed by him from Col Redmond had been pub- lished, and showing that the letter published was to JAS. A. HENRY, and misprinted by the Helena Sueld, Jas. 4. Huey, we inadver- tently neglected to withdraw our remarks made the week previous, under the belief that the letter, so outrageously published, was written by Col. Redmond to him. We cheerfully do Dr. Huey this act of justice now.
 MT. HENRY also denies being privy to the publication, though he acknowledges the letter to have been received by him, and says he turned it over to the secretary of the American council at this place.
 We here let the matter drop as far as we care. Col. Redmond's letter was evidently written in the unrestrained carelessness of sacred confidence, and its publication was gross violation of that confidence.
 Col Redmond is elected, and his election is a severe rebuke to the species of tactics used against him. He is gentleman whom we sincerely honor and esteem.

Puzn.ski Countu ArE Anc II 1oze

J
 Mir. EDIToR--The State elections being over. we may take time to think and talk, to soma extent, about other matters.
 The object of this communication is to no. tice an extraordinary phenomenon, which ap. peared from one to two hours before sundown on Tuesday, the 8th of July, ut. It had the appearance of red ball of fire, as seen by va. rlous persons in this and Saline county. Some who saw 1t, described it as looking as large as barrel. It was in an easterly direction, havingts course eastward y; and elevated some thirty de. grees above the horizon. The explosion of this meteor, for such it was, was followed bv a loud report, similar to that of two or three canno1s hred almost yet not exactly at the same instant; and followed by kind of a rattling roar. as if large rocks were falling. This report was heard by many persons in various parts of the country.
 MT. Lesley and family, on the east margin of this county, saw the meteor; and he assured the writer of this, that at least five minutes of time elapsed from seeing it, until they heard the explosion. Then, if the sound passes through our atmosphere at the rate of ], ,142 feet in a second of time, the explosion must have taken place about 65 miles from Mr. Lesley's.
 The writer was IS miles west of Mir. LesIey's and heard the explosion, which was to his ear uery loud. The ferryman at Little Rock, F miles west of Mir. Lesley's, saw the meteor or ball of fire, which looked as large as a barrel At what distance ball of fire on a bright sun ny day, which was the case in this instance, might look to be as large as a barrel, or two feet diameter, IS of course mere conjecture Some say the full moon, or the disk of the sun, looks as large as dinner plate; others say, as large as a cart wheel. We will suppose that this meteor looked to be the size of a barrel, or two feet diameter, at the distance of mile; and we are we'll aware that a ball of fire two feet d. ameter, and the sun shining, would look but little larger than speck at the distance of a mile. Then if that meteor looked to be two feet diameter at the distance of mile, and was seventy-fve miles from Little Rock when t exploded, it must have as much as l5O feet diameter, which is certainly the smallest size we can suppose it to have been; for it is said in the AMERtcsN ENCYCLOPEDIA that some similar bodies have been supposed to be half mile In diameter; yet they are never seen in day light. This must have been an extraordinary one; for 1t was distinctly seen by. not only the persons mentioned, but by Mir. Scott of this county, and Mr. Russell of Saline county; and possibly by many others \.
