John- son Tn 1891, and endorsed ever since by the democratic party in Arkansas.
 The position of the other two aspirants Col Duval and Dr. Dean, is understood, nothing ap bearing to the contrary, to be sound and tenabls upon the question of southern rights.
 The duty then devolves upon the legislature u choose among these several aspirants the most reliable man; the one who has evinced the most hdellty to democratic doctrines, to the sov- erelgn rights of the States and to southern in- stltutons. But is there southern man, one who avows his fealty to the federal constitution, who will be found advocating the claims of MT. Sebastian or Gen. Hampstead, to the favor of the people of Arkansas? say to my fellow citizens, that the record has been made-these two gentlemen have been weighed in the bal ance and found wanting.

0E The New York Crystal Palace, says the Journal of Commerce, is one complete ruin; only the towers and portion of the picture gallery are left standing. It will take over two months to get the rubbish carried away. A portion of the statuary, broken into over a thousand pieces, is strewd around, and the stoves, ranges, and most of the iron material can be seen in various portions of the ground. It is thought that the whole amount which can be recovered and put to use will not exceed $1OO,OOO.

The editor of the Gazette in feverish ar- ticle disclaiming sympathy with the black re. publicans. makes the following assertions:
 ''So far from our advocating anything tend- ing towards abolitonism, we were the first, and, we believe, the only editor in the State to write line, or speak word, showing that the insti- tuition of African slavery was right, and had the sanction of human and divine laws from the earliest day of history. We are the only editor in Arkansas who has taken ground in favor of the reopenng of the African slave trade. We are the only editor in Arkansas who has taken ground against tariffs which op- press the South, and aggrandise the North; and none, we believe, have taken ground with us in favor of direct trade between the slave hold . ing States and Europe, whereby the South might relieve herself from the tribute which she pays to the abolitionists of the North"
 We ask the editors of Arkansas;-democra at- ic, opposition and neutral. if this piece of pre- sumption does not "take the cakes?' Have we all been asleep? Our impression was that al- most every paper in the State had taken ground in favor of slavery; the older journals first and the others as they came into existence. Sever- al of the Arkansas papers, and one in its first number, took bold ground in favor of reopen ing the slave trade. The other positions, in fact all of them, were taken long ago, by every democratic paper in the State; iterated and re- iterated, subscribed to and defended. For our. selyes the columns of our files are sufficient proof that long before he uttered a syllable or wrote line those positions had been taken and have never been lost sight of
 He claims to be the only editor in the Sta who did these things. He fancies himself the exposure of all eyes, that his articles produce the most fearful or the most happy consequences, that when he takes snuff all Arkansas doth sneeze, and that the articles of other editors that preceded his, melt into nothingness or are scattered into pi, when he condescends to ex. press his opinion.
 We have found him at last This is the man who struck Billy Patterson Behold, the discoverer of how the milk got in the COCOA nut! Let us gaze and wonder in silent admir- ration at this pioneer in poltics,-ths giant in journalism, m,-this admirable Crichton of news- papers. Words fail us to pay just tribute at once to his merits and his-modesty.
