The MILITARY ENoAMPMENT The attend
ance at Camp Quiiman yesterday was very
large. The camp is located in a fine grove
near the Miami bridge, on the Troy Pike, and
presents quite military appearance the quar-
ters are comfortable, the tents being about six
by eight feet In dimensions. and furnished with
an abundance Of straw to sleep on. and couple
OF camp Stools for the accommodation of those
wearied with standing guard. Thecamp chests
are filled with quantity Of good things. which
compenSete the soldiers, for the hardshps they
are compelled to undergo in keeping sleepleSs
vigils, and living on boiled beef, and bread
without butter. By the kindness of the Com
missary, we were permitted to take peep at
the rations. They consist of beef, bread aud
vegetables rough diet, but sovereign remedy
for the dyspepsia and most of the ills flesh is
heir to. The utmost harmony and good will
pervades the whole camp, and when any diff
Guilty occurs, it is generally among outsiders
Yesterday afternoon, couple of bloods from
town started "chuck luck" table near by, and
were for while reaping golden harvest. But,
as martial Law has been declared all over the
surrounding premises, captain at the head of
dozen Of his men, came down upon them in
one fell swoop, broke their apparatus in pieces
and succeeded after considerable res istance in
lodging them in the guard house. The fight
for while partook of all the excitement Of
actual contest, and when the battle was over,
the soldiers retired, elated with victory.
Yesterday afternoon, the camp was visited by
number Of citizens. In the evening COM
pany from Springfield arrived and were welcom
ed by the loud mouthed cannon. The encamp
ment will break up toSmorrow.

A Correc ctiOn

At gathering at Helena, on the first day of the late term of the circuit court, a number of persons whom the State Rights Democrat dubs ' old line democrats" or ganized, endured a speech from T. C. Hindman, passed sundry resolutions and were talked to by Mir. Blackburne. The pro- ceedings were reported for and in the S. R. Democrat, in the usual hifalutin style of that cratic sheet This elocutionary ef- fort of MT. B. was pronounced by that pa per to be '' c speech of funsurpassed eloQuence and pocer, which elicited incessant evil dences of approval"
 In late number of our paper appeared the following paragraph:
 "Kossuth made big speech at the Lon don Tavern on the 20th of May We have read part of 1t. Those competent to judge pronounce it great effort. Some of the encomiums are very high, and deluded us for while into the belief that we were reading a description of a Helena speech s1I NIcDtti 4lc iidtl Dttlcl HUN IO lIi> Kossuth is ahead of him if the press is to be relied upon"
 We intended to refer to the speech of Mir. B., but inadvertently used the name of Mr. Cleburne instead, and thus did that gentleman great injustice. MT. Cleburne made no speech at that meeting, and in note from him he states that he has made no speech outside of his profession for more that year. He justly complains of the use of his name in the above paragraph, which was written when access could not be had to the report of the proceedings of the ga thering at Helena.
 We take great pleasure in making the correction, as we have no desire to use any mans name in connection wherein he does not place 1t. As to this speech of unsur- passed eloquence and power, it should be preserved and bound with the speeches of Henry, Webster, and other great Ameri- can orators.
Arkansas true Democrat., 1859-07-06
That New Paper.

We see prospectus published in the Memphis Avalanche, for the new Hindman paper to be started here. It is very singu- lar that the prospectus for paper in Ar kansas should first see light in another State. We have not time now to notice the attack upon the editors of the True Democrat but simply to notice one or two things in the attempt to get up the paper We feared that like most of the bantlings of its author, the concern would prove fzzle. We are anxious that 1t should be started, as it can possibly do us no harm.- In order to obtain subscribers in the west ern portions of this State, 1t is rumored that certain prominent democrats of this city will be the editors Now, we have it from unquestionable authority that so far from editing that paper, those gentlemen will have nothing to do with it. Intruth, we do not know of a prominent democrat in Little Rock who is in favor of the en. terprise. But we do know that know nothings of means and standing have been applied to in its behalf We do know that members of the opposition have been active in their efforts to have 1t established. We venture to assert that its existence, if it will ever come to light, will depend on know nothing sympathy and support.- Those persons at distance who have been deluded info the belief that the democracy here are in favor of the new paper, may as well be undeceived at once. It may be called the "Old Line Democrat,' but it will be to all intents and purposes a disor- ganizing sheet, supported by and giving aid and comfort to the opposition by en- deavoring to create a schism in the ranks of the democratic party.

Little Rook-its Commerce, etc.

As 1t may not be unacceptable to many of our distant readers, as we'll as to the cl- tizens of our own State, we proceed to give, from an entirely reliable source, some facts in regard to "Little Rock-its com merce, etc."
 Itis by many persons out ofthe State, east and north of us, frequently asked if steam CTS can run to Little Rock. w hile' Ill fact, three hundred miles above thls clty' Is the general terminus of our regular riVer steamers; while many ascend much higher to Ft. Gibson. To give clear idea of our steamboat facilities, and the increase ol business consequent thereon, we submit the following statistics for two years, ending win the 30th of June ut.
 /From the 1st day of November, 1884, fo the 30th June, 1858, there arrived at this port two hundred and sixty y-three steam boats
 From the lst day of November, lSoo, to the 30th ult., there arrived at oul land ing three hundred and seventeen steamers. Of this latter number there were from New Orleans thirty one arrivals; from Chem natl there were twenty-lwo arrlyalS, and from St. Louis four The others were from various points, Napoleon, Memphis, etc.
 To show that the Arkansas river IS not as dangerous a river to navigate, as many infer, we state that the following are the names and number of boats lost within the last mentioned period. The Dardanelle, Arkansas, Resolute and Grape Shot were sunk; the D. H. Morton, (U. S., was de- stroyed by fire. This Is the exact loss, showing about one and three-fourth per cent. of the whole amount.
 It will be seen that the increase Of busl- ness, or of arrivals of steamers for looo-9, is about one-sixth of the whole amount over and above the corresponding period of lS57-S.
 There is another fact connected with this subject that may be noted. 1t will be seen that three-fourths of the arrivals are from Cincinnati, as compared with New Orleans. We ship scarcely anything to Cincinnati, hence, we pay for all in cash! To New Orleans we send our cotton, receive our money and send it to the former place. Is this always for our benefit?
 A regular trade is now commencing be. tween this point and Memph;S and, should the merchants of that city lend fair and le- gitimate facilities to our merchants, we are sure that the connection would be of mutual advantage to both This fact is worthy of their serious consideration Upon this fact, or branch of the subject, we may have occasion to refer hereafter. In conclusion, why may not Memphis supply us with many articles we now get from Cincinnati, at as favorabe price and of equal value?

AF- After an absence of nearly two weeks, the junior editor returned on the 4th inst, from visit to his former home, in the western part of the State. The first announcement that met him upon his return, was the sad one of the death, on Saturday last of the only child of the senior editor Little SEWER JOHNSON, whose presence yet fingers upon those who knew and loved him, like the shadow of wing vanishing in the upper air, lives in a brighter sphere. Though but about two years old, he had,
 "On his brief journey, gathered up
 Vast treasures of affection! He was loved
 AS idols only are. He was the pride
 Of his familiar sphere-and his death
 Is like the melting of star into the sky,
 While you are gazing on it."
 Those, alone, who have lost an only child, can know how deep shadow a little coffin can cast, and how the heart, full of its own and another's sorrow, turns from the rou- tine duties of life to mourn its great loss
 Mir. Johnson has taken his wife on a visit to Jefferson county, at the residence of his brother, the Hon. R. w. Johnson. The absence of editorial matter in this number of the paper will be thus accounted for and excused.
