Arkansas true Democrat., 1858-06-08

of Prairie and Pulaski, was intended, in part, to call out the opposition, so as to enable us to know what issues would be made, other than those set forth in the article from the Gazette and Democrat, which we then copied. Another article, in the last number of that paper, reiter- ates the threadbare charges and gives us to un- derstand that they are the sum and substance of the political stock in trade of the opposition, now on hand "Intense Amercanism," Ame- ricans shall rule Amrica," "down with the Roman Catholics" and "a repeal of the natura- zation laws" are pretermitted
 The new editor, like the old, persists in falsl- flying history, when the events, of which he writes are so recent that the ink has scarcely dried on the pen that recorded them. Stu diously ignoring the fact that the Kansas bill was opposed by all the abolitionists in Congress, denounced in every abolition journal, in which they were aided and abetted by some few southern journals; that it was an assertion and maintainence of the democratic doctrine of non- intervention, he charges abolitionism upon the democratic party. According to his statement, the only pro-slavery men are Bell, Crittenden and Co.
 We are not mistaken as to Capt. Danleys position on the Kansas question, for we waded through all that he has written upon the sub ject tedious and sophstical as it was. It was the more tedious to us as we had previously seen the same objections advanced in our north ern exchanges; and, indeed, the articles in the Gazette were but a re- hash of those that ap- beard in the free-soil papers, slightly modified so as not to shock those members of the oppos- ton who are not disposed to affiliate with the abolitionists. If we have time, we will select some articles from the abolition papers and place them side by side with those published in the Gazette Of the 24th of April last, that our readers may see the strong family likeness between them. The matter can be summed up in few words. The abolitonsts, without an exception, objected to the Kansas bill. So did Danley. They condemned the Presidents message on that subject. So did he. They accused him of intervention, of nstructing Governor Walker. and found fault at every stage of the proceedings in the same manner as did this candidate for senator. who was then the editor of the Gazette. Abuse of the aboi- tionists comes with bad grace from man who for the last three months, has been fighting Slde by side with them. If the Captain thinks to cram such pfeposterous stuff as that down f ha tb b, nIl lo T, mistaken.
 To his attacks upon the democracy of Arkan- sas it Is hardly worth while to reply The re- sElt of his efforts was given at the election in August, 1856. As his vocabulary of epithets was long ago exhausted, we suppose he intends to spew from the stump the like vomit that be- smearcd the columns of his paper. The best reiutaton of his islanders is to be found in the fact that the State was nevern more pros per condition, that there are in the vanlts of the treasury nearly half million of dollars, and the debt incurred on account of the banks is be- ing adjusted and cancelled.
 Finally, the editor interposes part of a speech of John C. Calhoun, to sustain his fayorite in his attack upon conventions. This speech re- iers to a totally different stasof case, and taken whole, utterly fails to sustain the position taken. On this point, we would ike to ask the present editor of the Gazette few plain ques- tious. Considering that his candidate is con- siderably past the prime of life, has been a member of conventions, has written articles in support of them and their nominees, and for the greater part of his life, had access to this speech of Calhoun's and other arguments against con ventions has 1t not taken him long time to diacoverthe hum5uggery in them? Who nom- hated him or selected him to run for State Senator? Was it fixed up in a lodge or council room or Tn a caucus? Has he seen Sam lately? And while in catechetical mood we would like to ask if, since his retirement from the editorial chair, he is in favor of Americans ruling America? Are his opinions unchanged with regard to foreigners and Roman Catholics? We ask these questions in earnest, because, it will be remem LNred that when he was first accused of know nothlngism he indignantly denied that he had ever seen Sam," or of having been in- tated into the order and though editing the organ of the know nothngs, evidently consid- cred them as set of very scurvy politicians, whose doctrines he presented not for love of, or belief in them but for filthy lucre. Has he, too, quit the great American party?
