Our lands though increasing in value, will keep increasing, for the price of land, like every thing else, is governed by certain laws and these will be applied to our lands, Ii a nsoro is worth S1 300 because he can earn fen ner centum on his cost, above all ex- ,,onsos an acre of land is worth $50 that will yield five dollars net profit. And the land is not subject to death, disease or to he stolen. Besides, without the land first' tho laborer is useless.

Abuse of the Hon. T. B. Hanly

The Old Line Democrat in it's last issue indulges in the following coarse and insult ing language towards this tfuly amiable and accomplished gentleman:
 The Note Book in this disorqanizing move has been backed up by one Judge Hanly, iussy un- stable and unreliable little politician about Helena, who in consideration of his devotion to the family' has been recommended by the True Dem ocrat for almost every office in the gift of the peo- ple."
 Judge Hanly has been prominent citi- zen of this State for many years, and ranked high as a democratic leader here when Hind man and the editor of the Old Line Demo- crat were studying their primers Tn other States. Judge Hanly, among other i'm portant offices he has filled, was two years ago a member of the supreme bench of the State. He filled that station with dignity and honor, and the opinions which he de- livered are evidences of laborious research and legal erudition.
 It has been his misfortune to have lived where the Old Liners chief fixed his head quarters when he came here. He differed with Hindman, and for that unpardonable offence. like Sebastian and others, he IS singled out for abuse
 Though Judge Hanly has the ability to fill any office, 1t is not true that we have recommended him "to almost every office in the gift of the people,"
 The following is an extract from a cor respondent of the Old Liner. We do not know whether to commend its consideration to Mir. Peek, or to refer Mir. C. to the edi- torial abusing Judge Hanly. At any rate permit us to introduce the editor to his cor respondent. They will learn better to un- derstand one another hereafter:
 "What striking contrast there is between the course pursued by the friends of Hindman and those of Wilson. while the former never made personal or abusive attacks upon Wilson. the latter exhaust the vocabulary of the English language for epithets sufficiently abusive, to apply to Hindnan. l admit that am anxious to see Colonel Hindman nom- mated, but if it cannot be done upon his merits, and without traducing the character of his oppo- nents hope he may not be nominated.'

Rumors of War.

Governor Sam Houston, of Texas, de- clares that unless the general government sends certain number of troops to the Rio Grande, he will carry the war into Mexico. Major Ben. Mccullough has been recalled to Texas, and three companies of Texas rangers have been ordered out for the counties of Bell, Bosque and Worth.
 In the meantime government troops are ordered down from Utah, through the Indian country and others cross the south ern States to reach the frontiers of Texas.
 The K. G. C.'s are on the Mexican fron- tier in companies, well officered and may kick up an independent dust.
 If Juarez, after making demonstration on We're Cruz, can get to the city of Mexico, treaty will be made allowing our govern ment to pursue such mauraders as Cortinas on Mexican soil, and possibly to "protect" some of the bordering Mexican States.
 In the meantime trouble is brewing near at home. The northern emigrant aid societies have covered the neutral land of the Chero- kees with abolition squatters The cor don of fire" is closing around us The squatters have been ordered off and have refused 10 go. Already they have com menced their attacks on the institutions of the South and offer refuge to runaway negroes These men will have to be ex- pelled and we. fear another Kansas affair on our border. The danger grows greater every day. If Ross sells this land to the United States, these squatters will set up pre-emption claims and insist onthe right to remain. 1.-the pro-slavery men go on the land, then we shall have repetition of the Kansas war. As still as it has been kept, trouble is brewing in the West and it may not be many months before tue smouldering fire breaks out.

Arkansas Coal.

.sDr. D. D. OWEN, State Geologist, while prosecuting the survey of southern Arkan- sas in a letter to the Governor dated Nov. 29th, 1859, after referring to the high wa ters, which then prevented full examina- tion of the coal-beds on Saline river, says:
 "I find the whole of this so called coal' of the southern counties to be true Ignite or 6rown coal formation of much more re- cent date than the true coal formation and of the same general character as the so called coal on the Ouachita, ten miles above Camden. but 1t varies in thickness and quality at different localities"
 The Doctor then goes on to express his opinion that it will be more valuable for its oleaginous properties than as fuel, though the New Orleans papers say that the Qua chita coal burns well, and give it decided preference over other coals. From such examinations as he could then make, and the information derived from others, he IS of the opinion that the bed of coal on the Saline river, in township l7 south, range 10 west. is over six feet in thickness, and 1t may be of much greater thickness.
 Specimens of these coals were taken to the laboratory and analysed. We give the results of the analysis of three specimens. The first mentioned, or the McP Pherson coal, is within F miles of this city. We give the following extract from pr. Owens let ter

To the People of Pulaski County.

I am induced by my own wishes, and the solicitation of many friends, to present myself as candidate for county treasurer, at the next August election. 1 am demo- crat in politics-have ever been one, with out variableness or shadow of turning, and have now grown gray in the service. In becoming candidate, have no complaints to make against the action of any party or individual. But 1 want the office, and have right to seek it. My democracy teaches me to believe that all the offices of the country belong to the people, and are open to the aspirations and competition of all free white men. And as a free indc- pendent democrat, owing allegiance tA none but my country, 1 offer myself as candidate for your suffrages. If l should be elected, will bring to the duties ot the office 1 seek, all the industry and ability may possess; not being a stranger to its duties, having heretofore served in that capacity. $. T.

 have ben analysed and the amount of oil which they will yield ascertained
 "Tle results are;
 The McPherson Ignite yields 30.25 gallons crude
 oil to the ton of , 1000 pounds. The Oaachita river Ignite yields 35.40 gallons
 crude oil to the ton of 2,000 pounds. The Saline river Ignite yields 45.00 gallons crude
 oil to the ton of 2,o0o pounds.''
 The celebrated Breckinridge coal, from which it was supposed, at one time, coal oil only could be made, yields only 32 per cent. ofcrude oil. By purifcation the crude oil loses about one-third.
 Dr. Owen says that at one dollar gal lon, it will pay to establish factory to ex- tract the oil alone, but, if the manufactory be carried on in favorable location and on anlextensive scale, so that they can produce the lubricating oil, benzole, paraffine, and the other products, they can afford to sell the oil even at the lowest present market rates.
 The gas produced from these coals is said to be very good and not to need much puri- flying.
 The wealth of these coal beds can scarcely be estimated. Those on the Ouachita will be worked and large factory established. The Saline river mines are so situated that it will require some capital to prepare and sink shaft. But the coal is so ricls that it will amply repay for all such outlays

Projected Telegraph Line From Little
 Rock to Memphis.

1.-The operations of the electric telegraph, is the wonder and admiration of the world. No invention has ever excelled it, or be- coming more universally used for the every day transactions of business in all its de- partments. It interests every class of the community.
 Since its practicability has been studied, the spread of its thousands of miles is daily increasing. Every civilized nation employs it-the depths of oceans embrace it-the foliage of the vallies, cover its wires and the bald fronts of the hills are ornamented with its supporters. It is literal fact, that the French and Italian lines, traverse the Alps, and that its deli cate chord of subdued lightning, hangs in festoons from crag to crag.
 Few are aware of the extent to which its conveniences have been introduced. The number of miles now in operation in our country is estimated at 75,000. From the eastern boundary of the United States, through the sparsely settled State of Maine, the largest portion of which exports only lumber, granite and ice, there are to Bos- ton, two competing lines; the whole way from Boston to New York, there are five lines-two operated on the Morse, two on the Bain and one on the House patent; with one building to use Farmers improve ment. From New York to Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington, 15 wires from New York to Montreal, two wires from New York to Cleveland, via Fire Road, two wires-from New York to Buff falo, via Ogdensburg, and Canada, three wires-from N. Y. to Chicago, via Pitts bureh, two wires-from Buffalo to Chica- go, via Cincinnati, two wires-from But- falo to Chicago, via Canada and south shore, four wires-from Chicago to St. Louis, different routes, four wires-from Cincinnati, eastward, various routes, elght wires-from St. Louis, westward, two wires and others building. From Chicago, west and south, through Illinois 13 differ ent wires-al these lines have branches and lateral lines, penetrating to almost every village and town containing pop ulation of 500 inhabitants and over.
 II fbnrp several lines in every State, except Arkan- sas, and companies for new lines constant lv Eganizing. A line from Little Rock to Memphis will connect, with all others, all over the Union, the two Canadas, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.
 In our cityIthe subject of a line has been the topic of discourse for the last three years and no,O is favqIablee,opportunity to act in the matter MT SNOW, of the firm of SNOW KErcHUM G G.. is on visit among us. They have long been engaged Tn the business. and constructed several thousand miles. They are we'll indorsed by letters to several of our citizens, and will join them in taking the necessary stock for line to Memphis, and lease the line for term of years if'ldesired, and establish branches at once 10 the thriving localities of the State We hope within few days to see some tangible movement made on the subject.
 We learn that Van Buren and Fort Smith have taken stock sufficient to give them an office by the Missouri Line, on the route to California.

Our Publication Day.

We publish the True Democrat to-day as usual, and will publish it again next Saturday, and on every Saturday in the future, until we shall again have cause to change its publication day.
 Our reasons for this step are, that we have not been treated properly by the Old Line Democrat. That paper, not content with'the advantage of dropping in one day behind us, has, we have good reason to believe, been in the habit, through negro boy, of purloining the True Democrat on Tuesday evenings from our office. This conduct on the part of the Old Line Dem ocrat came near creating a difficulty be- tween the editor and printers of the True Democrat, but was happily averted by the vigilence of the latter.
 Some weeks since, we ascertained that our paper was furnished, by some means, in violation of the sacred rules among prin- ters, to the Old Line Democrat the evening before 1t was distributed to its subscribers. On last Tuesday evening, the guilty one was discovered. The negro carrier of the Old Line Democrat was caught in the act of purloining the Frye Democrat.
 Comment on this Is unnecessary. In all the bitter contests we have had with other aners such an adyantape was never Sourht over us in such way before.
