 Mir. EDIToR-Every interest should have a fair showing for its promotion and encourage msht, and one business man should not be al- lowed more immunity from the necessary bur- linens of society and government than another. Upon White river, every body knows or may know, that every commodity, which will con- mand ready cash, is constantly vended by the steamboats which ruffle and disturb it's beauti- fuL smooth surface. This being sire fact, is it fair that they should be taxed like all other trades? Are they not taxed by the laws of the State? And if taxed, CT taxible by law, do the collecting officers perform their duty?- These ae questions which command attention by the whole community.
 The merchant, I mean the regular merchant, pays tax upon every article he brings tito the State for the purpose of vending The hawker and psdler must first pay license before he can go from house to house with view to vend his little pack of merchandise; but the St am boat may go from wood pile to wood pile and vend as mach as she may find money or credit to purchase with perfect immunity from all tax, or the necessary burthens of society or go- vernment; and to do this, and buy the stock to trade upon, the regular merchant fRt pays the money, in the way of freights, which he, in turn must charge again to that portion of the community which consumes his merchandize. Is this fair? is it just? is it lawful? and finally, will the people suffer it? Let them decide: they are affected. OBSERVER

Mail Routes

Col. Harley, the special mail agent for Ar kansas, informs us that he learns various 'm- provements will be embraced in the proposals for carrying the mails in this Sta'e, soon 10 be issued. He learns that stage service will be put upon the following routes;
 From Batesville ma Smithville and Poea- hontas to some point in Missouri
 From Batesyille via Yellyile, etc, to Ben tonvlle or Springfield in Missouri.
 From Pine Bluff to Camden.
 From Pine Bluff via Monticello and Ham, bvrg to Bastrop in Louisiana.
 From Hot Springs via Rockport, Princeton, Camden and Eldorado to Trenton, Louisiana
 From Des Arc to Ft. Smith.
 We also learn that the Postmaster General contemplates increasing the service on all the main routes in the State, where two horse coaches are now used, to four horse coaches.
 These are all improvements in our mail fa- cties that are highly beneficial and have been long needed; and We are rejoiced to see the Postmaster General so prompt in his determa- ton to give them to us. Arkansas has long suffered for the want of proper and necessary mail facilities, and has been heretofore denied them, in spite of the earnest applications of hel delegation in Congress. But Gov. Brown, fa- miiar with the State and its necessities, has in. augurated a new era. He is resolved, so far as he possesses the power, to supply all of our wants. The representations and applications of our people will be properly responded to or all occasions by this efficient and faithful pub lie officer.

Post office at NapOIeOn.

We learn that the Post master at Napoleon has resigned and asked the appointment of a successor.
 The Post office at Napoleon is probably the most important one in the State, and the peo pie of the whole State are deeply inter ested in it's management; and yet, as important as it is, itseems to be almost impossible to secure and re- tain in it the services of an efficient Postmaster. During the last six years, the time we have been editing the True Democrat, to our knowleJoe this office has been the cause of continual con. tention and complaint.
 We invite the attention of our delegation in Congress to this subject. The people of Arkau- sas desVe man made Postmaster at NapoIeon who possesses capacity, experience, industry and integrity, and who will give his undivided attention to the duties of the office. The peo. pie want such man in that office, and no other kind will do. They want there a man of char acter and standing, and, if no citizen of Napo. leon of this description can be found. who will give up all other business, and devote his whole time and attention, in person, to the office, we trust our delegation will go elsewhere to find an incumbent. A gooi man can and must be made Postmaster at Napoleon. If the salary of the office is not sufficient let 1t he increased. The proper management of the Post-office at Napoleon is of the highest importance to the State of Arkansas.
