EDITOR TRUE DEMOCRAT

am no newspaper writer, but l am 6 subscriber to the three papers of your city, and consequently have the opportunity of reading all sides. l now want to know how it is that the Old Line Democrat has hoi>ted the name of E. II. Johnson as the candidate for governor of the State and immediately below, wrote an editorial against him. This, think, is not demo- cratic, for the reason if 1 should go into convention, and of course thereby agree to support the nominee of said convention. l should do so; but it seems to me the Old Liner has not done so; consequently l ask you to inform me and others where does he stanl. He has the nominees name at the head, and his editorial against the State convention candidate. If l was the candidate, l should ask him to take 1t down, and 50 it for whom he pleaseS. 1 regret to see the same article copied in Turner's Southern Star
 Dick, aS he Is commonly called, will be elected by or over 10, 900 votes. Mark it.

For the True Democrat.
An Imposter.

We. the undersigned, desire to caution the public against man, who called him self McMahon; but whether this is his right name or not, we cannot tell.
 We are satisfied that he is an imposter, likely to deceive any one not on his guard. He is about thirty-iive years Of age, five feet eight or ten inches high-has light hair and sandy beard both close clipped; IS slightly bald: dresses neatly, and sports a quantity of fine iewelry, especially 1ratch- guards. He represents himself to the clergy as very pious; and, away from them, he drinks whisky abundantly. He is, no doubt, man who has been published often, for his dcpredations on the clergy--from whom he generally borows about S25 or S35, never more, as he is not likely to be followed for that little.
 Watch for him.

DR. c. B. MITcHEL.-Since writing tho article on the Arkadelphia convention, we have had the pleasure of meeting ant con- sulting with Dr. MITCHELL. We will state his views briefly and authoritatively.-. While denying the erpediency or policy ot demanding at this time a slave code for the territories, he does not deny the right of Congress to protect slavery against un- friendly legislation. Dr. MToHEL Is will ling to abide by the platform of the State convention-he does not dissent from the principles therein laid down, and in mere matters of polly he will act in good faith with hi, party, and offer no factious oppo- sition to it's wishes. If the Charleston convention adopts platform on which the South can consistently stand, Dr. MITcHEL will support and carry out its principles.
 In regard to the disclaimer which the Old Line Democrat makes of having any personal feeling in the matter, Dr. MITCHELL requests us to say that he doubts the sin cerity of that statement, inasmuch as he returned the 0. l.. Democrat, when sent to him, upon the ground that 1t was a dis organizing sheet, and that he disapproved of its prospectus. The excessive charity of the editor of that paper may have in- clined him to forgive this token of esteem but human nature is Human Rature.-- Hempsseod Democrat.

ClarksViHe, Ark., April 18th, 1860. EDITOR "TRUE DEMocRAr'-
 Dear Sir: In your issue of the 7th inst, is a communication from this place signed " Spadra," which contains some statements that 1 feel bound to answer, not on ac- count of any particular merit it contains, but of its unbIushing falsehoods
 The portion that want particularly to notice, is, wherein "Spadra says: A cer- tain state official who lives not more than a mile from Breckenridge, was once the know nothing nominee for theN principal office in our city government, etc. The only answer that 1 have to make to the above statement Is, that 1t is unqualiiedly and inexcusably false. as exactly the reverse is true. The only time that 1 ever was . candidate for the principal office in our city government, l ran as the democratic can didate, against Col. John w. May, the regular know nothing candidate, and was " triumphantly and victoriously" elected. and the fact was so announced at the time in the "True Democrat"
 l was in the convention on the Doth of February, of course, and remained to the enl, as I always have done on all proper occasions. and expect to do, and what is more, will support the nominee, too; wonder if the donkey who wrote opadra can say as much.
 As to the gassy speech-the doings of the convention are of such recent date, that any person who would write such a thing cannot be possessed of either sense or shame as there is neither truth nor wit in it. STATE OFFICIAL.
