Arkansas River News,

From our steamboat register furnished by the enterprising firm of NIerricl1 & Wasse!l, 1t will be seen that our river has been filled with boats, all of them we are told doing good business in carrying pas sengers and freight. Since OUT last issue the river fell about three feet, then there was what is called a red rise'' of about q foot. On Monday it fell again, leaving about eight feet water in the channel. At the present time, Clue day, 17tb, at noon, ] 1t is raining here, and there are evidences of a heavy rain west of us. There is every prospect of another rise in the river, but how large we cannot tell yet. From all indications it has been raining up the river for the past ten or twelve hours.

Arkansas true Democrat., 1859-05-18


 Gts~ The Fort Smith Herald says that we were in the habit of abusing democrats, and intimates that being a whig it made it become second nature to us. We have this to say in reply: When the junior here belonged to the whig party, he never abused any body, as that is weapon he leaves to others to handle. But had he been 50 dis posed, MT. Duval and his set at Fort Smith, woull have been the last persons in the world he would have selected as democrats The whigs knew who were their friends and in days gone by received the same aid and comfort from pretended democrats, that the opposition now receive. The game is more transparent than these men suppose. On all questions, the Herald and its controller, when they had the nerve to take position, invariably took it against the democratic administration, and then, to cover their sins believed " democracy" loudly. There is great deal of pharaseeism in politics, and they are living evidences of it. However, we will not say what we might, for it would savor of ingratitude, inasmuch as we have a lively remembrance of how earnestly these men used to work with the whigs in order to defeat the democracy of years ago. The difference was, that the whigs stood in front and gave fair fight, while these traitors within were careful to fire off guns with no balls in them, and stood ready to throw open the gates to the beseigers

The Landed Interests of Arkansas

We know of few subjects. so important to our people as that of lands, the laws go- vernng the sale of them, the disposition so far made of them, and the number of acres sold and unsold in the State. In hunting up some facts to form the basis of an arti- cle upon this subject we were led to exam me the reports of the committee on the landed interests of this State presented to the last General Assembly. The third and last report of that committee was not print ed or circulated, and as it contains great many facts of value, at our request, Mr. hlmbell, the Secretary of the Senate, has agreed to furnish us with copy for publi- eaton Tn our next issue.
Arkansas true Democrat., 1859-05-18
InhaTmonious Harmony.
The
" Black spirits and white, Biue sriritS and nreN.o

that go to make up the opposition, have a hundred discordant elements and are well named. Their want of unity-oppoSition within themselves and to each other, pre- sent the anomaly of banded factions, with a nameless name, held together by the hope of public plunder. One of their leading organs, seeing the impossibiHty of union among them, suggests that each section carry the war on its own way: In the south to ignore the question of slavery, and in the north to agitate it. To show their in- consistency in one respect, we call the at tention of the people of Arkansas to the policy pursued here and elsewhere. Their journals at the north contend that the de- mocratic party seeks to establish African slavery in the free States. The phrases in ordinary use among them, when referring to the democratic party, are " slavery propa- gandists, D" slavery extensionists, ." slave " spreaders, " with other euphonious terms Here, they insist upon the democracy being opposed to slavery, and if democrat de- nies the foolish charge made by their north ern allies, they select certain words of his to prove that he was or is opposed to the institution in the south. By this very in- genious process, the Gazette makes out Vice President Breckenridge, himself slave-holder, a southron and who was elect ed upon the democratic, pro-slavery plat form, as free-soiler. By the same parity of reasoning, if we may be allowed to desc crate a word, they prove that honest John Letcher of Virginia, whose battered shield for years has received the hardest blows of the abolitionists in Congress, who was an acknowledged champion of slavery and whose record is as clear as any mans in Congress, they prove him to be an aboli tionist
 Occasionally one of them will assert that the agitation of the slavery question is by the democracy, when they know that the 
 very backbone of republicanism is the stirring of that exciting question. The at- Jacks commenced there-the aggressions came from the north, while all that the democratic party have ever asked is to be let alone. Democracy everywhere and at all times has claimed equal rights-has
  never appealed to higher law than that which is written and expounded by the highest tribunal in the land, and acted ever on the defensive.
 Now that all the democrats at the north except Mir.
