Es- He whom Yeadon of s. c. apostro. phized as '' orator, patriot, sage, Cicero of America, laudator of Washington, apostle of charity, high priest of the Union, and friend of mankind," and who, since then has become the author of the Mount Vernon papers, has very happy knack of shining feeblv on important questions. In Rome he is Roman and in Greece very Greek So when Sumner was whipped, an indigna- tion meeting was called in Boston, at which Everett appeared and made lackadaisical speech, saying, ''Ah, my friends, the events of the past week have done more to alienate the north etc.," in style at once mournful and bonbastic. His speech on that occasion was an abolition tirade, delivered in a wild clergyman-like-manner. Everett went south to deliver his oration on Washington in which there was no word in reproduction of slavery With the latitude his senti- ments change He returns north to deliver his oration before an abolition society. Here, he touches upon the manumission of his slaves by Washington and proves the great and good man to have been opposed to slavery. But the gentleman in the white cravat has been excited by the Harper's Ferry invasion and has found nerve enough to condemn it. His strong card for the Presidencyis is conservatism. It affords him a fine chance to condemn the acts of his northern brethren as lately he has been ar raigning the south for the fire eating pro- pensity exhibited.

The CosmopOlitan Art Association

We call attention to the sixth annual an nouncement of this association, to be found in our advertising columns. Unlike gift enterprises, lotteries, and other humbugs, this is we'll established institution, and the purchasers of tickets get the worth of their money at once, with chance in the distribution of prizes. The picture of " Shakespeare and his friends y is superb engraving, of the class and kind sold in New ! lork at eight dollars This association has done much, and is capable of doing more, to advance art in our country. Some of the finest paintings and statutes in the country were distributed through its agency and first class engravings sent all over the Union. It is truly cosmopolitan asso- citation and as such we commend it to lovers of art and literature.

Fohtlcs i'll the Northern Congressiona]
 District

ne prospects ot the congressional rep resentatlve of the northern district in his war with the democratic portion of his con- stituents are clearly indicated by the singu- lar fact that there is but one paper in his district. pretending to be democratic, that supports or defends him in his extraordina- ry conduct, and that one paper he partly owns and wholly controls. Not another democratic paper in the district is in favor of Mir. Hindman's re-nomination to Con- gress. The Helena State Rights Demo- crat, which is under his control, stands " solitary and alone" in support of him, of all the democratic papers in his distlict, and the frequent changes of the editors of that paper, the rapid rotation constantly going on in it's editorial department, evi- to get man to do the work of defending him even through the State Rights Demo crat.
 The following is list of the democratic papers as they stand affected towards Mir. Hindman:
 For 1M Hndman-The State Rights Democrat
 Against Nr. Hindman-The Fayetteville Arkansian-the Bentonvlle Appeal-the Batesvlle Sentinel-the Randolph Herald -thn Pocahontas Adyartisar-tha Mali son Journal-and the Helena Note Book
 Neutral and Lpdiferem-Th Van Buren Pless-the Searcy Eagle-the Madison Pioneer.
 These comprise all of the democratic pa pers published in MT. Hindmas's district One of them, his own paper, is for him screen are against him-and Mree take no sides. In the district, there is one know nothing paper, the Batesville Balance, and it leans towards Mr. Hindman, and wars upon the True Democrat
 This statement shows the low ebb to which Mr. Hindman has fallen in democrat ic estimation. He was once the favoritc- the popular representative of the democrat ic party, but how low he lies just now!- His selishness, bullyism, and too grasping ambition have brought him to this. His example should be lesson to all politicians who think to ride down the party that hon. ors them with its confidence

SPTTEFUL.-A Yankee brig commanded by Capt. Orlando sailed from Pensacola to Boston. After the vessel had been out a few days negro slave, named Columbus, was discovered on board. The captain en- deavored to land at Key West and at Nor folk in order to get rid of the negro and have him sent back to his master. The vessel reached Cape Cod on the sth of May. when Capt. Orlando made an arrangement with Capt. Brown, master of a vessel about to sail for Norfolk and the negro was returned. For this honorable act Brown, Orlando and others were indicted for kidnapping, con- spiracy and under the infamous personal liberty bill. Meantime the Brown affair came of. and the Yankees got their black blood up Caleb Cushing. for the defence. put in a plea to che jurisdiction of the court. setting out that Jones was fugitive slave.
 that the defendants were acting as agents for the owner and Massachusetts had no authority to make laws touching such a case. This plea was overFuled at once. The abo- litionist judge cut the proceedings short and sent the case to the jury. The verdict had not been given at the latest accounts, but there Is no doubt, these men for re- turning property will be sent to the Mas sachusetts State prison. The defendants made vain attempts to defer the trial until the Harper's Ferry excitement was over, but the court would not allow it. They punished these men through spite at the sentence of old Brown How long will the Union last if the very courts of Yan- keedom are made Instruments with which to oppress citizens who are honest?

General Jo. Lane.

We give good deal of our space this week to biographical notice of Gen I.ane of Oregon. The incidents narrated are as stirring as those of roma ,c with tba merit of being strictly true. It IS the pol;- icy of the opposition to decry every possi- Die democratic candidate for the Presidency and just now 1t is their humor to sheer at Lane. So, 1t was once the custom of his opponents to ridicule Gen. Jackson and assert that he was iliterate and incapable of writing message. Gen. Lane's mes- sages as governor and speeches in Congress 'no" 'hae ne possesses fine mind, and the wonder Is how he found time to cultivate It so highly. If the once fiatboatman tbe Marion of the Mexican war" the brava soldier and clear headed statesman Gen eral Joseph Lane, of Oregon. sbonld re. ceiVe the nomination at Charleston. the united democracy will rally to his support with ardor and enthusiasm. His nama is tower of strength and his nomination would be equivalent to an election. Read the article in another part of to-day's pa per- and you will share with us admiration for the energetic, selfmade patriot, who, rom poverty and obscurity has elevated himself to be one of the foremost men of a mighty nation.

% Commenting upon our ex

@ Commenting upon our expression of willingness te throw aside the pen whenever the editor of the Old Line Demo- crat desired a resort to his "most approyed method of the latest cigilization" to settle any difficulty between us, he says:
 .sOn the whole we admire the magnanimity of the editor of the True Democrat in indicating his sentiments on these points, and for relieving our mind of any unpleasant doubts which we had before entertained in respect thereto"
 Perhaps the editor would never have threatened had he entertained no doubts.- Most certainly, the expression of his doubts is no very high eulogy upon his conduct. The editor of the Old Line Democrat, we trust, is undeceived in reference to this matter, as we feel confident he will be. be- fore great while, in reference to many other misrepresentAtions of us that have been made to him. He is a stranger here and has many things to learn, not only of us. but of many other citizens of Arkansas.

V A Word to Slave Owners.

Our State has been lately traversed by the agents of the abolition societies of the north. We have their emissaries and spies in our midst. We have good reason for saying that our State was to be made the theatre of scene similar to that of Harpe $ Ferry. To suppose that there can be a general instruction of the negroes IS an absurdity, but there are some vicious men and women among them, who might be in- stigated to commit crimes. Certain oc- currences in this city, within few days past, demonstrated that negro stealers are here at work. They have approached slaves and proposed to take them to free state and upon the refusal of the negroes to go with them have attempted to use force. Runaways are hid in the vicinity and are in the city every night. The patrol force of the city is too small We are not dis posed to find fault or complain of action or non- action on the part of the city authorities, but beg leave to call their attention to one or two things. First, negroes traverse the streets at all hours of the night free from hindrance. Second, suspicious characters, calling themselves gipsies, are visiting every house and negro quarter, under the pretence of telling the fortunes of the negroes. These gipsies are tall, raw -boned, with light hair and villianous Yankee twang to their speech. They invariably predict to the slave have a house of your own" These suspicious characters are not confined to the city, but are scattered all over the neighborhood. Third, negroes are permitted to carry knives and pistols and in case of a quarrel they draw their weapons on each other with as much bravado as Baltimore or New Orleans rowdies assume.
 It is the custom to give slaves weeks holiday at christmas. IT mischiefis intend ed then is the time it will be attempted We suggest to slave owners that they take pains to see what arms their slaves have in possession, that they are careful where they go during the holidays and with whom.
 Patrols should be established in all neigh borhoods and a general supervision main tained. If any outbreak occurs, it will be on the western frontier or on a line between this and Hampstead county The routes traversed by these agents was one through Washington, Crawford and Sebastian counties down to Sevier, and another up the Arkansas river to this point, hence to the Texas line
 We write these things advisedly and urge care and watchfulness Besides several suS- picous circumstances that have happened here eandesewhere, we have other good reas- ons forknowing these abolition scoundrels are now in this State plotting and planning. We hope this word to the wise will be found sufficient
 Since the above was written we are in- formed that the so-called gipsies were waited upon and requested to leave. This they have apparently done and are bound Texas-ward. The gentlemen at the head of our city government mites good .iudg- ment to decision of character and we are confident that he will do his whole duty.

EE- The elections in New Jersey resulted better than we hoped. The opposition candidate for Governor has 1000 majority, hut in the Senate the democrats have four majority while the opposition have only two majority in the House, thus giving the de- mpcrats two majority on joint ballot.

Jefferson Territory.

Undoubtedly, one of the objects of Gree ley, in taking his overland trip, was to urge the formation of new territories and states, west of us, all of them to be so called free soil and part of the circle to encompass the slave holding states. Pike's Peak has taken the lead. We confess that we do not exactly understand how they do things there. The territory of Jefferson, or part of it is enclosed in the territory of Kansas
 However, the Pike's Peakers got up a con constitutional convention and framed a con stitution for thnStote of Jefferson. This the people voted down. We next find them talking of creating territory of lief. ferson, and before 1t existed, agreeing to send a delegate to Congress, but, at the same time electing membe of the legis- lature for Ronsas territory and county of ficers under the organic act creating Kansas
 Very lately they have organized provis- ional government and elected governor judge of supreme court, attorney general and other officers. Whether Jefferson is territory or state, whether it is part of Kansas or independent of it, whether part of 1t has two governors or none are ques- tions we can find no answer to-. The whole thing is gotten up to strengthen abolition ism and pretty mess they have made of it.

He has an extensive stock of dry goods and groceries.

lGxE- Some new accessions to the theatre have lately been made. Among them we notice Miss Pearson and Mir. Wolf. Miss r. is an interesting actress, as lively as a cricket, sings well, and is always in the best of humors, she seems to have happy faculty of pleasing if not fascinating the audience. MT. Wolf seems to be polished actor and has made a fine impression. The theatre still draws good houses.
