What the Arkansas Papers Say.

AAos tA0 hIkduSdS ' dpCIS gay Ihh Camden State Rights Eagle notices ne attempted resurrection of an old Span sh grant that atcovers Camden and portion T the country. The claim is honorably nspossd of by the Eagle claiming to have one still more ancient. There is claim to belt Of land in the northern portion of .his State covering millions of acres of the best lnads, ofwhich we hear something eve " now and then. Its history is interesting ana we shall write 1t some day. To do so, It Will be necessary to get copies of some documents of record in the county offices and at Washington city. Some alarm has been created by the assertion of this and like claims so that an examination of them may be of advantage to some as well as in terestlng to general readers.
 l he Fort Smith Times states that new tort, to be called Fort Cobb, is to be built, west Of Fort Arbuckle on the 35th parallel. ms IS important in extending protection over that route and will induce travel there on, build up settlements and neutralize the efforts of Phelps, Greeley and others to throw the travel and line of railroad more to the north. The Times says that Col. Voltage of that county has raised fine crop ot rye and argues that it will be sure and profitable crop. We clip the follow ing from the Times:
 ''W learn from Capt. Fox, superintendent ofover- lanu mail, that the citizens of Dardanelle are cut ting out new road on the south side of the Arkan sas rver to inersect the Little Hock road at Perry ville It is thought that as soon as the road is opened the stages of the overland mail company will run to Little Rock all the way on this side of the rver. We understand that the work on the road is well done. The people of Dardanelle are enterprizing and liberal, and what they undertake they will go through with. Success to the enter prize''
 The North West Appeal pours the hot shot into the disorganizers and asserts that the old liners of that elk are, the greater number of them, whigs or know nothings, men who have never, in any manner, acted with democracy" After all their drum ming, canvassing, coaxing and utilization with all sorts of politicians they succeeded in getting one hundred Hindman men out of eighteen hundred. These mountainous eff forts with their ridiculous products, meant to give strength only serve to show weak ness. The people see through these tricks.
 The Brownsville Echo notices the new paper started here and, after complimentine its appearance, pithily remarks:
 'We wish the new paper success, although wt cannot help thinking that the first number contain: too many good things about Mir. Hindman to be | the organ of no man, faction, or clique.''
 The Pocahontas Advertiser calls for more dwelling houses in that fourishing town.- The Advertiser gives an account of wed ding in Lawrence county where the bride groom was twenty-two years of age and the bride onl ly ten. The same paper takes grounds in favor of 5, A. Douglas for the presidency. Had not the papers of the south better insist on some other man fol the'candidacy?
 The Madison Journal, noticing the fact that St. Francis county had subscribed the internal improvement fund of that county to the railroad and the private subscription obtained, concludes it's article with these cheering words:
 'Our people begin to see the great advantage: which must accrue to them from the M. and L. R railroad, and henceforth we may look upon the sue cessiul and speedy exteution of the road through the county, to White river, a fixed fact, ever though the country should have the work to do it self.
 The article on Mr. Hindman and his can vass is telling one, and we will notice i hereafter.
 The Sage of Monticello, though owned b, IF, Hemingway, is edited (with abilit, tool by another, and that paper states tn fact that Hemingway is not responsible fc the editorials of late. Like the San Dieg Herald, when placed under the control ( John Phoenix, we could wish that the pr tenn. editor was the fixture of the concerr The following IS from that paper:
 " In this progressive age of ours, where though Is unre>trained; the people are curious to know a thatls going on. We have been informed by on | oI our best citizens, that the sum of $500 was ar proTmated by the last legislature as cOntigent ex pel'es to the door keeper. Now we want to knoy what these contingencies were. what this none was appropriated for. It has been hinted that wentn the payment of various kinds of fluid. A matter of curiosity, and as an insight into lersla tive hfe, the people here want to know the truth l the natter because there may be many asprants il the future for that honorable position, and we art deSlrous ofknowing whether that is porquisite.- | Will the True Democrat tighten it's many readers on this subject.'
 Uupon enquiry we find the resolution did not equire the door-kecper to furnish bill of items or to characterize the contingent cies furnished. Whether for fluids or solids, for articles of use or ornament, for necesaricS or opportunities, we have no means of ascertaining. We have our views as to the elections of officers to the legisla- ture which we will take occasion to give some day. These extra-appropriations have been made at almost every session.
 Several times, when we have attempted to Joke with our cotemporaries, they have constfrcd it into sheer or attack on them, but we ehope the Van Buren Press will not so consider our notice of "bull" we find in it. After stating that the contractors on themail route from that place to this had given up the contract, adds that its subscribers on the route "will receive this as an eplanation for the reception of their papers." Is not this something like the postscript to the lrishman's letter which read ths? eff you don't receive this let ter writ and let me know"
