EDITOR Pass
Dear Sir AS the election in 1860, in
Arkansas, is fast approaching, and in as
much that election will in all probability,
to great extent determine the future desti-
NY of our State, therefore it becomes the
people of the State to seek after the best
material for Governor, DE. The names OF
many prominent men have been brought
forward for the Office of Governor of the
State. by their respective friends; all OF
whom have claims on the country. With
out desiring to underratc the claims of 9TH
ers, permit me to mention the name Of
Judge JoHS +. WHEELER, of Fort Smith.
and at some future time, propose to show
that he has claims on the people of this
State. superior to those Of any one yet
spoken OF in connection with this re-
sponsible Office. Judge Wheeler has been
for many years Editor of one of the Lead
ing papers in Western Arkansas, a Demo
crat OF the strictcst order. The time was
once in Arkansas, when men might talk
and write about Railroads, but the time has
come when men should act on the subject.
We have no man in the State who is Il
more constant and efficient advocate of in
ternal improvements. than Judge Wheeler,
and who has exertel himself more in be-
half of these enterprises. Mr. Wheeler
know. is no aspirant for this or any other
Office. and this is written without consult
ing his wishes ON the subject. and is only
thrown out rs hints, that his claims may
be taken into consideration with tn, many
prominent names which have already been
spoken of. In conclusion Mr. L litor, per-
nit me to ask you, aud through you the
other democratic papers of the State, would
you chcerfuily support Mr.. Wheeler for that
Office ii h. should be the nominee of the
convention of the democratic party.

character and responsibility, as much so as
Mr.. Hindman and his correspondent. They
have staked their characters this charge.
They are entitled to respect for thus boldly
and responsibly making their accusations,
The issue is between Messrs. Pettigrew
d Boudinot on the one part, and Col.
Hindman on the other. This Is THEIR af-
fair it has become matter OF veracily /;
and Gar Creek renders hlmScl an often
sive blunderer by intruding between res
pectable and responsible gentlemen.
In this matter, Gar Creek has exhibited
himself as an ignorant intermedler and
regret that a person who is SO favorably
known should have made so great a mis-
take. l should be pleased to hear from
him again. when he will, hope have dis
missed las toptoftical bragadocio, and come
down to legitimate discussion, and say to
the readers of the Press. as his views are
highly regarded, whether he will continue
to brand gentlemen whose characters are as
respectable as Col. Hindman s, AZ least,
considered SO, so long as Col. III. remains
silent under the accusation Whether, II
this charge is proved upon Col Hindman,
he viii continue to support him To say
which is the worst, to be guilty Of writing
self-laudatory letters, forging public senti-
ment in behalf of one self, and impos-
ing upon a confiding public, or to be a bold
accuser of such man ? Mr.. Editor, it is
seemingly strange that Col. Hindman does
not come out and deny this grave charge
and relieve the cmbarra ssment Of his friends
if he is not guilty and it is more strange
that his friends, after this ominous silence,
will embarrass Col. IIindman by undertake
ing his defence when they know nothing
upon the subject a Hiniman Man first
rushed in, burnt his fingers, and reeoiled
and now Gar Creek steps in to vinicato
his principal, when he is ignorant of the
facts. Ii is singular, too, that Col. Hinl
man - friends can entertain any hope Of
his inneccnce after this studied silence
