TIE CANVASS. - Correspondents from Yell and Scott both give us cheering news from the "old war-horse," Dr. Mitchell.
 Col Johnson in the Northern District is making friends everywhere he goes. He will beat Rector even in his stronghold of Hindmanism. The people are beginning to see that he is running solely on Hindman's popularity, not his own, and are conse- quently deserting him. For fear Judge Rector's friends have not seen the offer kept in the True Democrat for the last two weeks, we will remind them that by calling at this office they can get two thousand dollar bet. Dc come.

 INA FIx.-The editor of the Old Line Democrat is in an unfortunate predicament; we have shown that the ink has hardly dried upon his fingers since he defended Douglas and his "short cat to Wack repub- licanisna'' We have driven him to the wall ,and have lashed him into tacit acknowl- .edgment of his culpable political eccen- tricities. But while we have been honestly of the opinion that our solemn duty," re- quired us to expose his inconsistencies and heresies, both in respect to his pnsition on national as well as on state politics, our sym pathies have been aroused in his behalf.- Uncle Henry becomes a candidate for Go- vernon; Thomas straightway gets into the heroics; calls on the Heavens and earth to listen while he chants in spread eagle style the many excellencies of his relative; Tho mas gets nearly frantic in his eulogies-so great, so good, so eloquent, so generous, so patriotic, so smart and withal the noblsst Roman of the family; and after all this, what does Uncle Henry do? If "reliabe authority" is entitled to credit, he pronoun- ces Thomas Fulton county vote in the State convention, an evidence of the fraud anil corruption of that concern. Then Thomas looms" out on Uncle Henry's State po- Hey; ventilates it; praises his financial acu- men, and tells the people what it is; how simple, how plain, how good, how advan- tageous; then Uncle Henry publicly says such representation of his policy grossly misrepresents him and is talss." So Tho mas gets kicks from friends as well as foes he is in a bad fix for he can't open his mouth without putting his foot in t.

"Now when this thing first charged upon Mr. Y erkes he attempted to prove his innocence by saying that it was received by him through the null, and he unconscious there was any fraud int.' But MT. Yerkes says, rather his Cherokee scribe says for him, that this letter was in all probability written in the Old Line Ddmocrat oEee! Now these are two different and rreconciia ble stories which Mr. Yerkes tells about the man. ner in which he got possession of the letter-On Line Democrat.
 Pshaw, Mr. Old Liner how funny you talk. MT. Yerkes did receive the proxy through the mail-but does it necessarily follow that you might not have concocted 1t in your sanctum? If you were sharp enough to perpetrate the fraud, you cer- tainly were smart enough to give it an ap- pearance of genuineness by having it mailed from the appropriate office. We don't believe you could have been so stupid as to have done otherwise.

"We do maintain, and solemnly call the atten- >ton of the people the fact, that the Johnsons, (who are the real owners of the True Democrat deserve the most unqualified reproduction of every decent and peaceable man in the State, for the un pardonable outrage that they have perperated upon the purity of the press and sanctty of private char acter, in licensing free and vndictive Indian to control the columns of the True Democratn'-OM Line Democrat 10th.
 Lest some unsophisticated, peaceable, way y-faring individuals might be induced to avoid the vicinity of Little Rock after read ing the above, and for the benefit of the travelling public and Arkansians generally, we would beg leave to state, that the 'tierce and vindictive Indian" at present connect ed with the True Democrat Is tame and tractable; he left his tomahawk and sea D. ing knife in Fayetteville, where they are now in the possession of Bill Cush," who is preparing some wood cuts for.the benefit of our Old Line cotemporary--we have no doubt but his study of the. history of the aborigines will he thereby greatly assisted.
 We stated some time since that our sud den transition from savage life and pursuits, to the semi civilized condition we have at tained, must excuse many natural foibles. Our readers must pardon us, if we occa- sionally forget, in fit of abstraction, that we are in the highly civilized vicinity of the Old Line Democrat, and imagine our self among the Osages; and if we make an effort to lift the top knot of its "high-bred" editor with the cold steel of common sense, don't be scared off by his shriek of wild Indian we are perfectly tame except in those fits of distractions, and they only come over us I11- Weekly.

REcToR's BANK PoLICY.--When we asked our neighbor to "ventilate " the boasted State policy of Rector, it came out in long-winded exposition of the same. Judge Rector repudiated in emphatic terms that ventilation" He says it is not his policy and defines it himself. See account of his position in another column taken from the Batesville Sentinel. Ihat needs no ventilation" The Old Liner says we misrepresent Rector's policy. What right has it to speak? If it will first get cer- tificate from Judge Rector that it is not slandering him, and will then state intel ligibly what Rector's policy really is, we will reply to it with pleasure. But we cannot consent to fight windmills. Please tell us what IS Rector's policy. Don't jest this time Write to Hindman and get his opinion about 1t. Let us hear from the "Veiled Prophet of Khosassan," we are beginning to have, like Rector, positive contempt for the aJortiUe efforts made by our cotemporary to whitewash this policy, which has been thrust unwittingly upon the Judge.

the well settled rules of equity jurispru- dence, the State has the right to bring . bill to have the mortgages foreclosed, and their proceeds applied to the object for which they were intended-that is, the payment of the bonds. without first paying them herself. or producing them in court.
 And further it is declared by our statute that upon the death of corporation the goods and chattles, lands, tenements, and hereditaments, and every right or profit is- suing out of or appertaining thereto, mon- evs, credits and effects of such corporation, shall immediately vest in the State, im trust for he uses and purposes contemplated by the charter, and each, every and all right, shall be in abeyance, until the action of the legislature shall be had thereon, unless provision shall be made by law for the management of the corporation fund, in con temptation of such dissolution. The State, it is we'll known, has assumed, and is now executing the trust devolved upon her by the death of the Real Estate Bank.
 Therefore we answer the question above stated in the affirmative, for three reasons First, the bank charter has given the State the right to foreclose the mortgages as soon as they become forfeited. Secondly, by the principles of equity jurispruaence, in dependent of the charter, she has the right to foreclose and have the proceeds of the mortgages applied to the payment of the principal and interest of her bonds, where soever they may be; and in the third place, the statute we have alluded to, and the fact that the State has assumed to act as trustee in the settlement of the affairs of the Bank, gives her the same right.
