profession by a consistent walk and CONVERSE
~sation, in her last illness she exhibited a meek
and gentle disposition, patient under all suffer

looked forward to the time when released from

Saviour. Without c doubt or fear she awaited
the approach of the messenger of death, thus
adding another to the many witnesses for the

He's gone, our little Willie dear,
Has passed frum earth away,
Where blighting sorrow. bitter tears,
Can never come; and love endears-
The happy spirits freed from clay.
The rosy boy. with bright blue eyes.
Was a fond mothers favOrite child;
Whose infant heart knew no disguise,
But seemed n wand-rer from the skies,
So gentle, lovely, pure and mild.
He, like a tender. blooming flower
Beneath a genial summer sky
Like he first rvse of Eden's bower,
Was doomed to live a transient hour,
And then to wither. fade aud die.
Before the blight of earth could mar
The pure untarnished gem,
Twas taken TO yon world afar,
To he u bright aud glorious star
In Heavens ethereal dialem.

IE- The Gazette of last week is a c

IE- The Gazette of last week is a cu- rious medley It is rather more decent.- The editor attempts to palliate his former indecency, but before he closes his article, relapses.
 In another article he uses the terms " bought and sold," in reference to one of the editors of this paper. Of course every man who opposes him is a liar, fool, or is bought and sold. Such stuff is not wor- thy of refutation Anon he waXes indig- nant at being told of his shirl1ing and wants us to name man. We dislike very much to use the name of any gentleman unless so authorized, when we know that it will call down a flood of abuse on his head, but we may say that we understood, from others, that the editor of the Gazette had stretch ed his legs, in days gone by, under the ma hogany of a successful opponent of his, whom he afterwards attempted to ridicule and whom he deluged with flood of his choice phrases. If it be not so, we shall be glad to be undeceived, for we have no desire to do any man injustice, nor to be led to believe in the doctrine of total depravi- tV.

;oez~The State Rights Democrat, in al

lczs" The State Rights Democrat, in an article meant 10 be very severe, says of the junior editor Of his paper: |" he has been everything by turns ani nothing long," As very simple and conclusive reply to that, the junior says that he hos eolrd Hc demo~rotic t;cLa ?tieacr and .tor q longer lime in .Irhop$qs, Moa Me present or tor- ner coltor qt he Stote R:gitr Demorra.
 Further down iii the same article, we find the following:
 Subsequently, according to a statement yet mcontradicted, he reiapsal towards know nothinei,m once more and applied for the post of editor of the Ga-cHe, know nothing paper"
 The statement was never directly made, and all attempts to get the editor of the Gazette to name the person whom he said had applied to him, were fruiticss. twas d falsehood so outrageous, so paipabie, and bore on it's face such evident marks of it's untruth, that he shrenk from it. It rc- mained for disorganizng sheet to pick I'D this islander and father it. We wish to preserve due decorm in answering all that may be charged against us, but such outrageous stuff as this would try Jobs patience.
 The State Rights Democrat in three or four several articles repeats the words "pizerinct" and pizerinctum, with great emphasis and apparent guSto. Now, if 1t was right to withdraw from the know noth- ing party the word is not to be used as re- proach. If, however, as the opposition and the State Rights Democratcontend, it was wrong to desert the know nothings, then 1t is term of reproach. We have seen a good many papers turn rapidly, but never saw pretended democratic paper go over so fast as the State Rights Democrat.- Not content with abusing q majority of its own party, not satisfied with throwing itself into opposition to the old line demo- cracy, who for thirty years have never wa vered, it now borrows the titles of its arti- cles as well as the body of them from the Gazette, reproaches the great number of those democrats who were seduced into know nottingham and retraced their steps by contemptuous use of inc words "pi- zerinctum" and presumes to read out of the party those who were democrats be- fore its editor or owner ever set foot ill the State. We can tell that paper one thing The same game was played once before, and in that case the same path was trod- den. Very loud was the disorganizer of that day in praise of state rights democra- cy, very keen to scent heresy and very in dignant at being accused of sympathy with the opposition. The people of Arkansas have seen the game once played and by Dlayers ot' more skill than those who are now stocking the cards men of equal ta- lent and of far more judgment.
Arkansas true Democrat., 1859-03-09
Editorial Courtesy.

The junior editor, upon forming con nection with this paper, naturally expected to receive some hits from the opposition. He was aware that the State Rights Demo- crat had commenced a war upon the bulk of the democratic party, but supposed that it's editors, real and ostensible, had decency enough to refrain from joining in the cry of the know nothing pack here. On the contrary, it copies the false charges of the Gazette and adds some spiteful epithets of its own, as vindictively and bitterly as # they were aimed at personal and political foe. As the principal part of its articles are a rehash of those in the Gazette, an answer to one will be an answer to the other.
 It is we'll perhaps, that the State Rights Democrat has shown us how it intends to act hereafter. To it's scurrility we shall oppose arguments and language free from vulgarity, and endeavor to convince it, by example, that to become an editor, is not, necessarily, to become a blackguard. If, hereafter, here or elsewhere, it shall become necessary to handle those gentry without gloves, they may remember that they com menced in way that will entitle them to no mercy.
 All this stuff about " hireling, " :" desert ing for pay" '' betraying principle" is borrowed from the paper here, and is as ridiculous as it is untrue. The same < pay could be obtained in other pursuits, discon- nected with politics. It is a sorry sight to see paper purporting to be democratic echoing the vapid falsehoods of political opponent These slurs and sneers cannot hurt us where we are known, but they in, iure those who join in the assaults uponAes Politics make strange changes and not the least strange is to find the State Rights Democrat seconding the Gazette in its dirty work and retailing its islanders.

A new Enterprise.

Having made visit to the shop of our townsman, Robert Brodie, we find that he is now prepared to do all steamboat and other work in his line, upon the shortest notice. He has procured, and has now in successful operation, a machine for punching boiler plates or iron bars of any reasonable thickness.
 We found him engaged in manuiactu- ring three iron cages or cells, for the county jail of Pulaski We are informed by the county commissioner, John Wassell, that these cells are made fully Mity per cem checper than they could be obtained at Gin cinnati, as appears from the proposals fol furnishing the same. This should put ou citizens of adjoining counties upon inqui- ", should they need anything in that line.

S~OeA~

QUITE A CoINcIDENcE.-The last State Rights Democrat received by us and the last Gazette, each have an article referring to the True Democrat, headed alike, or nearly so. In one it is "the devil tarns preacher" in the other, the devil turned preacher" Now, if this does not show a full and mutual understanding it does show a union of sentiment and proves that great minds think alike.
 It is very singular that two intellectual giants, so far apart, should, nearly at the same time, strike the same vein of thought and hit upon the same form of words to express it. Par mobile fratrum.

Gs- The editor of the Gazette says in in his last issue that he "quit strong par ty and joined weak one for principle ; He forgot to state that at the time he join ed the know nothings, it was supposed to be the strongest. We have some recollec- tion of the boastings of that party, about that time, and the predictions of com plete triumph, It appears that he joined the new partA for principle. We are led to infer from his cries for the formation oi new party that he found none and is still destitute of thGt article. We have read of ''Ceolebs in search of a wife" "Japhet in search of a father" and an '' Irish gentleman in search of religion" and now we have politician in search of principle. It is devoutly to be wished that he may find some, be it ever so little.

 "The Alle4hanv mountains, as you are aware. run from N '. to $. w. That part | of them north of south Carolina line lies spread out in different chains or ridges to a 1 distance of nearly 50 miles, and the whole region is called lon the mountains The climate is healthy and the grass fine Many ofthe valleys in this region are rich, particu- laIy on the water courses. The ground is covered with snow as much as four weeks annually The land is cheap say S1 per acre, but much can be bought at 50 cents l have learned from good authority that sheep can be tarmed out during the winter at len centS per head on any ordinary quati ty."
 This will serve as basis on which any one can estimate the expense of keeping sheep in the mild climate of the South
 Here is table regarding the increase of hocks as given by northern farmers:
 Put down every year one-ninth less than you have ewcs then deduct one-tenth from the whole for deaths in that year.
 Thus, you have 100 ewes; deduct one- ninth and you have 80 lambs; total, 1S9; deduct one-tenth for deaths, IS, and you have III to start with next year,
 !" This calculation run on for eight years, and deducting expenses, shows a profit of more than fifty per cent compounded.
 The following extract from Texas pa per contains information on the subject ap- plicable to Arlansas:
 The Gonzales Enquirer, replies to the queries ofa North Carolinian who had writ ten to the editor for information relative to sheep raising in Gonzales As his ans werS are very good and reliable, we append them with the remark that there are few counties in western Texas where the in- formation here given will not be appli- cable
 :" 1st. What quantity of wool could pro- bably be purchased for cash in your coun- ty, and the adjoining counties, at the clip ping season?
 ANswER.-I cannot reply as to the quantity of wool that can be purchased in this and the adjoining counties There are within four miles of this place about l500 head of sheep which will furnish 5000 lbs. of wool next spring, all of which I sup pose can be bought for cash.
 2d. Where does your wool find a mar ket, and what are the facilities for getting it to the coast?
 ANswER.-Our wool markets are any of the sea port towns of the United States; we get 1t to the coast on OK wagons ia dis tance of hundred miles, for fifty cents per hundred pounds.
 " 3d. What is the breed of sheep usual ly grown in your county? Have you the Saxon, the Merino, the Southdown, or the Cotswold? If any of either kind are they numerous?

Er Persons at distance often send ac- counts against the State to the auditor and request him to transmit the warrant by mail. We are requested by that officer to state that he is unwilling to do this. Not only is the warrant liable to be lost, but if not presented for payment before the end of the quarter, makes a discrepancy be- tween the accounts of the offices of the auditor and of the treasurer. The better way is to send the account to some person or firm to draw the money and forward the same

Important to Merchants and Tax Col
 leCtors

The following opinion from the solicitor general, is important to sherif1s and to all merchants and traders in goods. A con- trary opinion appears to have prevailed all over the State, and merchandise once assessed was permitted to go untaxed for subsequent years:
 L,Fle Rock, 1st March, 1859. SIR: In answer to your inquiry, have to say that by law, all goods, wares and merchandise are subject to taxation and of course where a merchant has paid taxes on his goods, and has any portion of the same goods on hand the lst of January, they become subject to taxation again for the current year as so much property on hand He would have no more right to claim ex- emption upon them, because they had been taxed, aud the tax paid the previous year, then the owner of slave, or tract of land would have for the same reason. Such property cannot be exempted, because ii has borne tax once, any more than any other property which is made taxable by law

 A correspondent of the Madison Pioneer thus refers to the rumor that we were re- solutioned' for defending the members from:
 "DEAR PIoNEER--Being detained here a day, I have concluded to give you some accounts of the doings at the seat of go- vernment. When I arrived there, on the 11th, found things in most beautiful muss. The House had passed resolution to the effect that they were entitled to their per diem pay during the recess, from the 23d of December, 1858, to the 17th day of January, 1859, while the members were at home with their families. In order that they might draw their pay, amounting in tAiO pSS ICSdtc lO dUDul RcOUV, u OtCdLlc necessary for the Speaker of the House to sign certificate for each member, certify ing that he had performed the services and was entitled to his pay. This the Hon. o. Il. Oates (of Monroe county, Speaker of the House, (to his everlasting honor be it spo- ken) absolutely refused to do, and rather than have any hand in such wholesale swindling, resigned his Speakership. The House then elected Hon. B. F. Duval, who signed their certificates. The Hon. 0. H. Oates came out with card in the True Democrat of Wednesday last, in which he handles the parties without gloves. The Senate refused to vote themselves en- titled to the same pay. A rumor prevail ed in Little Rock, when l left, to the effect that the House did not intend to adjourn, but would simply take a recess until the lst November, 1860, as they had a Speaker who would sign their certificates entitling them to draw their pay. Both Houses however, passed resolution to adjourn on Monday, the 2lst."
 These will do for the present. We shal give other notices hereafter. Are these re factions? If so do they not reflect publi sentiment?

The State Tax.

The Gazette has column or more in relation to the bill for reducing the rate of taxation from one-sixth to one tenth Of one per cent. It avaiIs itself of the opportunity to abuse Gov. Con way and eo make biz figures. As a refutation of it~ statements ofthe vast amounts to be drawn from the pockets of the people, t is only necessary to show that it will moi eN- ceid sixty or seventy thousand dollars Assuming the value of taxable property in the State at one hundred million ofdoIlars, the difference between the two rates is 8G6,6G4 We may, hereafter endeavor topicl1 ont the statements from the mass of slang that surrounds them in the article in that paper, and shaw the necessity for this action on the part ofthe Governor.
