It is slated that one of the first acts of Gov. Browr, the new Postmaster General, has been 10 increase the mail service from Little Rock to Washington in this State, from three to six times week. This increase of service was ! asked by joint resolution of our Legislature, l which originated in the Senate through Gen. G. D. Royston of Hampstead county. Too much praise cannot be bestowed upon decl- sion which is intended to insure such impor- tant mail facilities to a very large number of our citizens and the early and favorable atten- ton which the subject received by the Post master General induces us to believe that the reasonable demands of the south and west, at the Post Office Department, will be- at least more courteously regarded than they have been heretofore The transportation of the mails from Aberdeen to Helena has also been improved. These new and important arrange meuts are made with view of forming con- necton, substantially, SIC times 1oeek from the Mississippi river via Little Rock to Washing ton, distance of 253 miles. But we fear the improvement will not avail much toward the end in view The mail connection no,0 be- tween Little Rock and the Mississippi river, is not oftener than three times week. The mail ronte from Little Rock via Pine Bluff to Napoleon is barely nominal one. The mails have not been conveyed through by stage for nearly two months; and the route,in lieu of be- ing one of public utility, is, at this time, a source of disappointment to the people and un- necessary expense to the government. Had the contract provided for transporting the mail by the river, when the connection by stage was impractible as formerly, we might receive the mails semi occasionally, if not regularly. But so it is, mail route which ought to be of great service to the community, is a grievous | inconvenience.

The Lieutenant Governor of the great State of Rhode Island, now receives the enormous sal. ary of two hundred dollars year. Formerly. It was hve hundred per annum, but the Legls. aure, looking to the public interest has curtailed the alarming extravagance
 In this respect, Rhode Island is but the ser vile imitator of all States with arti-democra- tic constitutions England pays nothing to her members of parliament and what is the result! Her legislature is notorious for its venallty. It is, in truth, but congregation of vofaclous pension and place expectants, and penslon and place are only obtained by peril dlous deserilon o the people and sIaviah sub servlence to government. The genius, too, that Is generated and uurtured in penurv, must abase itself at the shrine of corruption or for ever be obscured, uulcss fortuitous circum stances give radence to its light. With such a system, legislation iS confined to the upuleut or the meritorious poor become plaHt minions oi hereditary aristocracy, and suUsidze their talents to perpetuate abuses and give pcrmcn, ency to mi,rule.
 The lesson which these facts inculcate, should got hc lost upon a democratic people; and it is thls: Pay we'll your public servants; render them independent of pecuniarv embarrass- mentS, and you thus have the best guarantee of ldehty to trust and inacccssibility to corrup. tion Rhode Island Is uumindlul of this great truth. Indeed, there is something siugularlv t@ytsh about that little commonwealth; for she cluug to her royal charter with a tenacitv that few years ago produced armed revolution in her midst, which Was afterwards, memorable as the Dor rebelllon."-H HiSsissippiaa

 The new cabinet went to work on last Mon day, and every Indication is, that it will fully meet the expectations of the country. Already a feeling of confidence exists that the presen administration will restore peace to the coun try, and add new vigor and strength to the Union.
 Crowds of of1ice-seekers are here, and among the number Arkansas is represented. variety of opinions are afoat in regard to the policy o the administration as to removals and appolEt- ments hut no doubt many removals will be made.

 The Supreme Court in the Dred Scott case, having decided the Missouri compromise un- constitutional the last nail Is driven In the cof- fin of black republicanism, as many well mean ing people at the north, who have been lead away by the excitement and vagaries of the hour, will now reflect and be convinced of their error But it wont do the democracy must have opposition, and as Know Nothing ism and black republicanism are disposed Of, the odds and ends will unite upon some new issue. With proper and judicious management by the present administration, and with an eye slngly to the interests of the country and the demo- cratic party, We have nothing to fear. From the complexion of the administration, and a strict adherence to the principles annunciated by it's head in his inaugural, we can defy any combination under the sun.

-Arkansas Post, Ark. March, 1857

 MR. EDIroR--You would no doubt like to hear something about this old llace-thc first settlement in Arkansas. The town is built on bluff of red clay on the left bank of the river about forty miles from its mouth. The population--all of whom counted recently in walking through the pIace-number about twenty-five souls. There are fifteen houses, including two stores, Methodist church, and the bank; the lattor edifice being used for any purpose whatever, serving to hold elections in and sometimes horses. Its white walls inside are decorated with various embellishments done in pencil, being the work of nature ar lists and scribes. These inscriptions are not al- ways of moral character, and some of them, like the images on the ruins of Paengue, defy interpretation; yet they are for the most part suggestive. For instance
 Cowards and fools come here to write,
 But men of scIlSe come here tO fight"
 Again,
 Fools names, like their faces,
 Are always found in public places" Alluding no doubt 10 custom which some people have of writing their names in places to be seen by men, such as fences, walls, and window panes.
 On the door-facing we find the following couplet-
 What though our houses are all rotten,
 We razcs corn and cotton" Which we must regard fguratve expres- sion, when applied to the Post-for the soil there being, as already noticed, a red clay is not productive of those staples. In justice to the poet, however, we may state that the first line of lis dstich is most truc-the houses are i'l a most crippled state.
 The street, are cut up into deep ravines, not by travel, but by the action of rain water; and the quantity of mud thus engendered is at times awful.
 There are no manufactures in the place. There are no schools. In short Arkansas Post has seen its best days.

The NeNy SecretaN of Mar-

The Richmond Examiner, of a recent date in the course of an article on the newly ap- pointed cabinet, says of Governor John B. Floyd:
 Virginia is represented in the Cabinet of Mr Buchanan by Governor Floyd, another State rights democrat of the school of strict con- structi!N-an appointment which has been generally expected by Virginia from the day of Mir. Buchanau's election, especially by that vast western region of our Commonwealth whose democracy are counted by legions, and by whose democracy the State has been saved to their party in all its struggles with the all versary--ln the celebrated campaigns of 40 and AS, as well as all the rest. Virginia gave the largest majority of all the States that voted for Mir. Buchanan, and gave a larger majority by many thousands for Mr. Buchanan than she ever gave to any other man. Virginia was the banner State, and her south-western dis trct-of which Governor Floyd was the EIec- tor--was the banner district-giving in this campaign, the largest democratic majority it ever gave before, and to MT. Buchanan the largest majority 1t ever gave to mortal man.
 Governor Fioyd's public service has been ex- cuslvcly confined to the State and his appoint ment to the cabInet would be his first intro duction to the national councils
 Governor Floyd belongs to that class of State rights democrats of the south who insist upon strict doctrines of constitutional construction as the only sure means of preserving the union of the States; and does not belong to that class of politicians who despair of the Union and are for dissolution pei SC.
 During the agitation of 185O Mr. Floyd be- ing governor of Virginia, could take no part in its exciting debates; yet he was known in Virginia to be an ardent opponent of those measures, though he did not concur in the views of the meu in South Carolina who aIyo- cated secession ln consequence of the passage of the compromise acts Governor Floyd has always acted with the democratic party.
 h 1636 we believe he was not residing in. Virginia. In every succeeding campaign he has been an active supporter of the democra- tic candi,lates--in those of 1S19. 1852 and 1856, having acted as elector in the district known in our parlance as Little Tennessee" where from an average original majority of some 1900, he has succeeded, with the aid of able colleagues iu that region, in running it up to 5000. The arduous character of electoral service in that rugged district Is little under stood in eastern Virginia, and Mr. Floyd has had no Ieasure in the cam pagns he has had in It to air his oratory before city audiences and enjoy the laudations of metropolitan journrs In the last campaign, indeed private business called him to New York, where he gave the Low Country people a touch of his quality as a speaker, at Merchants Exchange in Wall street.
 Ii the current rumor of Governor Flovd's appointment to the cabinet shall be verified by the official announcement, aud he shall accept the position, We shall have more extended notice of him to present.

6r Col Palmer, the senior partner of the legal firm of Palmer & Hindmau, of Helena, was in this city last week. The professional card of these gentlemen appears in the adver- Using columns of to-day's paper. They are widely known as able, faithful and talented lawyers, and their attainments as such are duly estimated at the growing locality, which is the centre of their field of practice.
 In this connection WIG would also call atten- tion to the card of D. c. Williams, esq, of Melville, Marion county. Mr. w. was mem- Der of our late legislature, is good business man and a clever gentleman.

W ha; two of Them Say.

The Louisville Journal, the Know Nothing organ in Kentucky. declares that Mir. Buchau- an is "u uuverSed in the arts of true statesman ship" and lis incapable of expressing himself
 ill rcsI ectahe English,'' The National Inteli- sencer, paper that threw is influence into the scale against Mr. Buchanau. and, with the Louisville Journal, for Mr. Fillmore, says of MT. Buchanau's inaugural:
 | We are free to confess that the perusal of the address has given us sincere satisfaction. so
 entirely unexcep;ionable does 1t appear to be
 lh thougnt and expression. Indeed we may say
 that, alike Tn matter and in manner. it reminds
 us ot those sterling attributes of good judg- meut and common sense which characterizeJ the State papers of President Monroe. and we can only hope that at the close of NIT. Buch
 anan'S administration the comparison thus sug- gested may extend not only to the well. tenn. pered sentiment and unambitious diction of these two statesmen, but also to that restore. i ton of good feeling which marked the era of
 the earlier President, and which we fain hone
 will oe the conscientious aim of his veteran 1 seccesSor.
 1 There Is an ineffable lttleness in the course of the Louisville Journal, which even "sheer party exigency" could not have suggested, and
