e9r The attention of our readers is
respectfully directed to the advertisement
headed ''Mrs- Richards Young Ladies'

well apprised that the conductors of this
institution came to this country under au-
spices which of themselves form suffi-

whatever they may undertake We have
in our possession highly ereditable testi-
monials in their behalf, which we hold
subject to inspection by those interested.

~ We regret to learn by the last
Gazette d Democrat, that our friend
Captain DANLEY is compelled to lay on
his oars awhile, in consequence of indis-
position We hope his trip to the Hot

the rheumatacs are rather unpleasant, and
our party need his services in the pre-
sent contest A speedy return, Captain,

Pending the recent contest for Guber-
Material honors, We have endeavored to
.;draw it as mild'' as possible, on his re-
elected Excellency; and, i'm view-we
suppose-of the distinguished considers-
ton which We have manifested for his
''pheellnks, We found ourselves, per last
mail, the recipient of the unexpected favor
of the following choice tit bit of executive
patronage. Bearing as it does unmis-
takeable marks of its paternity, We feel
ourselves called upon to commend this
eloquent production to the especial notice
of our readers. We wish our friends dis
tinctly to understand, that We are not at
all proud on account of being chosen as
the medium to give expression to these
Thoughts that breathe and words that
burn"
We shall endeavor to bear 'sour blushing
honors' meekly; the only question con-
nected herewith, is, whether the next
Legislature will have to pass a special act
to defray the expense of this publication,
or whether the amount (s2.54) will be
paid out of the contingent fund for such
purposes made and provided, on the draft
of his Excellency We think in order te
resolve our doubts on this subject, we viii
apply to the newly elected attorney general
Mr. Jordan's successor, for advice upon
this point. We shall do so however-w
wish it understood by every one-entirely
without regard to his qualifications

Our Cause.

The following jubilant shout from the
Memphis Eagle DC Enquirer is eloquent
with the power of truth. Let the friends
of our glorious cause take heart Again
we say, let them mot be cast down p
Remember that we went into this contest
strong in the consciousness of being in
the right, trusting in the integrity of our
motives and the justice of our purposes
And where is he 50 weak as to yield up
his convictions and principles because of
a temporary gloom--a defeat which we
met, fighting to the last. Think, Amerl-
cans of Arkansas, against what you had
to contend-against SANDER, viliication,
Misrepresentation, treachery, and every
unscrupulous art of the demagogue and
the political trickster. And now that
your victors, in the flush of triumph,
'taunt you with the same opprobrious scorn
with which, for months, they have warred
against you, will you, can you desert your
flag, which you have borne thus far with
honor, to become camp-followers and men,
ials to swell the train oi the vanquishers.
We trow not. Let the glorious spirit
which has thus lar animated you, blaze
out all the more brightly through the
clouds of defeat and let US work Ior our
candidates and our cause, - having set our
hand to the plow, let us know no turning
back Fillmore and the Union is oul
battle cry. Let us rally to the glorious
slogan:

Gloriously Vlndicated.

Let the trumpet sound the American
party stands before the world at this mo-
ment gloriously vindicated. There is no
manner OF doubt now, in the mind of any
Southern man, 10 matter to what party he
belongs, that the tAmerican movement was
and is right, proper, and demanded by
the fearful exigencies OF the times, just
as a barricade is demanded, or breast

ny, is hushed, and we only hear the report
