TO OUR PATRONS.

We have now been engaged in the pub ication of the "Des fire Citizen" near six years. On the 30th of September 1854 we embarked in our enterprise when the town contained less than one hundred souls. We have pursued l" the even tenor of our way" and at all times have advocated the political principles which we defined in our prospectus, dated August lst, 1854, two months before the Citizen made its appearance, which was as follows:
 "THE CITIZEN will discuss all measures of governmental policy, both State and National, without reference to the peculiar views of cliques or factions, but guided by an earnest desire to secure the sgreatest good to the great est number," will fearlessly maintain those principles which have ever tended to leave (where it properly belongs,) all power in the hands of the people. In word, the manage ment of the CITIZEN will be DEMOCRATIC and at the same time INDEPENDENT AND FEAR LEss."
 We have supported and adhered to those positions which would rebound to the ben- eft of the town, regardless of individual advantage or preferment.
 IP We have considerable amount due us upon our books, and if those who owe us will come forward and pay up, we will be enabled to enlarge our paper and compete with those who are about to es- ,ablish new paper in Des Arc.
 We have no fault to find with those who are about to compete with us for the pa- tronage of the public, and look to the De- mocracy of Prairie and adjacent counties to hold up our hands in supporting and maintaining Democratic principles.
 We learn that the edicl has gone forth that we are 10 be [" crushed oai." But this expression, certainly. must emanate from prejudiced few, and not from the mass of our political opponents, as we have ever entertained different opinion of honora- bic warfare in politics.
 B&s@ We call upon the Democracy to aid us in extending our circulation and placing the Citizen in the hands of every Democrat in Prairie county especially.

Supreme Court decided against hIm 'na' he said ut matters not how the Supreme Court decides the abstract question.
 When Lincoln, the Black Republican competitor of fStephen A. Douglas, pressed him at Freeport, and he saw Freesoll and Senatorial honors on one side; and true Democracy and defeat on the other' he bent the supple hinges of his knees to FreesoiI, and turned his back on true De- mocracy, and said;
 "Tbe people ofa Territory can, by law fuI means. exclude slavery from their Inn its prior to the formation of State Con- stitution."
 The effect and purpose of Stephen A Douglas Squatter Sovereignty IS to give the Territories to the Northern States, and take from the Southern people an equa participation in the emigration to and set clement thereof.
 Stephen A. Douglas says, by his Squat ter Sovereignty, to the Northern people "make me President, and l will give yol control of the Territories and enable yol to exclude the Southern people from any part or lot therein.

DOUGLAS IN NEW ENGLAND.-The Philadelphia Pennsylvanian thus refers to MT. Douglas visit to New England where, since his nomination, he has de- livered more than dozen speeches:
 In the North, and particularly in New England, the hot-bed of Aboitionism, and reeking with infdelity, Judge Douglas has been received with unusual honor, @ with huzzas, speeches, clam -bakes and gunpowder in unlimited quantities He has been welcomed by large assembages of Abolitionsls, simply aS Democratic diSorganizer. In the charming town of Worcester, in Wilson-loving, Sumner loving, Garrison.loving, Washington,hat- ing, Webster-hating MaSsachuseHs-i the town of Worcester, where the people, year or two ago, murdered a Deputy United States Marshal, in cold blood, for having, week before, arrested as it was his sworn duty to do, runaway negro, and where, we are informed, there are now taco negroes in the Common Council, was perfectly jubilant over the man whom these fanatics recognize as the head and front of Democratic Reorganization. The rail-splitting Aboltionists, the intellectual infdels, the friends and admirers of the "martyred" (hung) John Brown, thus manifest how fully they have placed their hopes in the disorganizing Judge Douglas. They depend on ham 10 elect Lincoln. They fete and hurra over him in all New Eng land, as the hope of Lincoln. We do not

Also, at said sale, W. T. High purchased north half of the northwest quarter ot section thirteen, in same township and range as above, containing forty-six and forty nine hundredths GAG 49-100) acres, for four dollars and twelve cents ($4 12): and said Auditor, on the 18th day of February.

T. High similar deed for last named tract of land, which tract was afterwards conveyed by said High to said Martin. Now, therefore, all per- sons who can set up any right to said land so purchased, by reason of any informality, ir- regularity or illegality connected with such sales hereinbefore set forth, are hereby called upon to show cause, at term of the Circuit Court of Jackson county in said State, to be begun and holden on the second Monday after the fourth Monday in May, A.

that this is all our duty. l shall most readily concur in anything which tends to the per- formance of that duty. But l cannot go into any general discussion about the rights of the people while under the Territorial Govern ment, and do more than they are permitted to do by that constitution which creates a gov ernment over them."
 DANIEL WEBSTER.
 So that in regard to slave property, as in regard to any other property recognized and guarded by the Constitution, it is the duty, according to the Supreme Court, of all the courts of the country, to protect and guard il by their decision whenever the question is brought before them. To which I only add that the judicial decisions in favor must be sustained. (Applause.)
 If present remedies are inadequate to sus- tain these decisions, I would have nothing more done. l, with many other public men in the country, believe they are adequate. If they are motif they cannot be enforced for want of the proper legislationto enforce them, sufficient legislation must be passed, or our Government is failure. (Applause. )-I John c. Breckinridge at Frankfort.
 Gentlemen, see no escape from this con- cusion.
 HENRY CLAY ON SLAVERY IN THE TERRI- TORIES. .--In 1887, Henry Clay, then Senator of the United States, introduced the following resolutions into the Senate:
 RESOLVED, That any attempt of Congress to prohibit slavery in the Territories of the Uni ted States would create serious alarm and just apprehensions, would be violation of good faith toward the inhabitants of such Ter ritory who have removed thereto with their slaves. and because, when such Territory shall be admitted into the Union as State THE PEOPLE THEREOF SHALL BE ENTITLED TO DE- cIDE THAT QUESTION EXCLUSIVELY FOR THEM SELVES.
 ABoLIsHING SLAVERY IN THE STATES THE
 REAL OBJECT OF THE REPUBLICAN, PARTY.
 Admit that abolition in the States is what ALL MEN OUGHT TO STRIVE FOR, and it is clear that large majority are not prepared for this, and the practical question is this-shall we politically attempt what will certainly involve us in DEFEAT AND FAILURE? or shall we not rather attempt that which majority ARE ripe for, and thus, by our consequent triumph, INVITE THAT MAJORITY TO GO FUR THEIR? Shall we insist on having all the possible eggs now, or be content to await their appearance day by days The latter seems to us the only rational sensible course. We may RIPEEN PUBLIC SENTIMENT IN THE NORTH FOR EMANCIPATION WE WILL AID THEM to the best of our ability; but we will not re- fuse the good NOW within our reach of defer ence to that which is as yet unattainable. MT. Birney's ''ultimatum" may be just what he sees fit; we have not proposed to modify or medde with it. We only ask that he shall not interdict and prevent the doing of SOME good at once, merely because he would like to do MORE good, as WE SHALL ALSO, WHEN EVER IT SHALL HAVE BECOME PRAC- TICABLE.-[N New York Tribune, July 28th, 1854.

He says he saw their trick, and gave them the cold shoul- der, for, said he, when they got me to go for Douglas they thought would be halfway for MT.
