From the Van Buren Press Judge Rector's Bank Policy.

Judge Rector in order to show his better ability to fill with credit to the State, the gubernatoral chair, has cut some fantastic intellectual tricks, and evidenced his great want of practicability in letting people know what he favored.
 His bank policy was one of these, Ii 1t could be so styled, interwoven as he had 1t with railroads. He laughs at "Governor Conway's policy" which, as l understand 1t, Is to make the assets of the bank, and the securities given by stockholders pay the bank debt, thereby relieving the credit of the State of suspicion and protecting tax payers from loss.
 His (Rector's) policy is to give to rail- road companies bonds of the State of Ar kansas, drawing six per cent. interest, and running twenty-five years, to an equal amount with the outstanding indebtedness of the State. The railroads are then, as an eqivalent for these bonds, to give their stock to the State in a like amount. The State is then to take the stock so transfer red to the bank bond holders and cancel the bonds; thereby not only paying the State's indebtedness, but at the same time building roads without its costing the State a cent This looks very well, and if the young man had lifted himself over the fence by his straps would have some faith in the scheme This thing of paying debts and building railroads without money, is in finance, what perpetual motion Is in me- chanics, something not yet discovered. Suppose we examine this splendid pro- position. State bonds are now worth from forty five to ffty-cents on the dollar. The | State indebtedness is little over three millions What would be the result of putting on the market three million dol lars worth of bonds--if they would sell at all, it would be at some very low figure If they fail of sale entirely, then, of course, overheard goes this strap lifting proposi- tlon. If, however, the bonds were to sell tor thlrty-ive cents on the dollar, would the railroad companies trade their stock for such paper? If they would not, then of course the straps are busted, and the young man not yet over the fence. But say the railroad companies would trade their stock for this depreciated paper; say they would let their dollars worth of stock go for thir- ty-five cents-what would be the result?- A road which should have cost the people of the State one million of dollars, would by this splendid scheme, cost them over three millions. The stock would be worth less, of course. But, they may say, the StaIe would make her bonds as valuable as

EDIToRs TRUE DEMOCRAT
 A few items in regard to matters and things in this part of the State may possi- bly, interest some of your readers. Busi- ness has called me to this and some of the adjoining counties, and l have taken pains to inform myself as to the prospects of the democratic candidates, and 1 am able to give you correct and reliable information on the subject.
 In Bradley county Johnson and Mitchell will get majority of one hundred; in Ashley county, two hundred; in Chicot one hundred; in Desha, one hundred and fifty; and in this county about one hundred. Had the election come on few weeks back Rector and Can't would probably have carried the county; but great reaction has taken place, and 1 should not be surprised if the above vote was even larger.
 Two men, good and true will be sent to the General Assembly, who they will be is yet difficult to tell, but there is one thing certain, it will not be Hemingway or any of his ilk. am inclined to think however, that it will be Dr. Puttney and some other good man.
 Dr. Puntney is an able debator, and uses the same keen blade against Hemingway which he did against the " know nothings J in 1855. There is no man in the county who did so much to break down Sam J as did the Doctor, and the democracy intend rewarding him at this election. l have seen we'll informed gentlemen who have been around in the canvass, they assure me there is no doubt of Hemmingway's defeat by large majority.

 EDlToRs TRUE DEMocRAT-.Sirs: It af- lords me great pleasure to inform you that Col. R. H. Johnson will carry this county for Governor by handsome majority. All the prating and noise about fraud and for gerv is "6uncona6e," and Is so regarded here I shall vote for and support Col. Johnson, and I would not be surprised if the vote for him will double that for Rector. The cor respondent of the Old Line evidently wears magnifying glasses, for the statements he makes cannot be discovered with the naked eve by one in the same vicinity. Colonel Cypert speaks here to-day. He will run good race here but do not expect to sup port him. I am democrat in principle and practice, in every sense of the word, and expect to support the nominees of my party; but I hate to support Hindman for several reasons affecting his private as well as his public character.
 In conclusion, gentlemen, permit me to assure you that Johnson's friends here are numerous and they are sanguine of success. Van Buren county will be certain to maln- tain the democratic majority she has always given, and that has been very respectable.
 Respectfully yours,

The Colonel has invented new style of oratory, the Van Buren Press calls it the sledge hammer style -perhaps your learned men would call it yigmarol After what have said about Col Hays, it would be superHuous to add that he is the most accomplished wire worker of the day-in truth, this IS the oninion of that celebrated lawyer, Mir.

 You are aware, Messrs. Editors, that 1t has been the national custom of our party to promote the most worthy-this being the case, I call upon you to assist in elect ing Col. Duval to the legislature, so that he may have a chance to be elected to the U. s. Senate, which he is as well qualified to adorn as the drawing room and the levee.
 I call on you to support Major Green for the Judgeship in this district, as he has heretofore been badly treated by our party. He has made numerous attempts to get of flee and has invariably failed; human na- ture cannot stand this always-in regad to his ability, that profound jurist, Judge Wheeler, says we need just such man in this district By what process of reason ing the Judge arrived at this conclusion am unable to say. hope Judge Wheeler will deliver his opinion before August, on the following subject, whether an individ- ual who would make use of ninety-six dol lars of either public or private funds, with out rendering an equivalent, would be a safe man on the bench?

Messrs. EDITORS:

 have just returned from mass meet ing in the upper part of this county-some three hundred were present, and l give you my word and honor as a gentleman, that there was not one Can't man in the crowd, and but 12 Rector men, no mistake, for we counted noses. put Johnson's majority at $50, Mitchel's at 250.
 Oh! what glorious rebuke will we ad- minister to the recreant traitors that threw or wished to throw the second choice of this county to Can't in the Congressional Convention on the first Monday in August. by standing staunch and firm and throw ing for the "old war borse," in proportion to our strength the largest majority in the district. I should not be surprised Ii Mitchell exceeds the above named majority, and I am certain he will reach it.
 was unable to attend the speaking at Rockport on account of sickness Ill my family, but I am told he handled Can't, just as he deserved, but the best joke oi the canvass, was Gantt's saying Tn hls speech "that he had for several weeks | (days) past been the mark of the assas- sin, that some men were following to kill him, and thereby prevent his election;" the funniest idea that 1 ever heard of Mitche replied by asking him ''to catch hold O his coat tail and he would carry him througf safe''-and in my honest judgment Cant will be holding to the coat tail at the enc of the race-for he is destined to work be hind, unfortunately for him.

g-Elsewhere will be found the letter of Gov Roane, breaking ground against the nominee for Governor of the State Demo- cratic Convention, before which honorable body the honored name of Gov. Roane was persistently balloted for until the choice of the Convention fell to Mir. Johnson.- Along with this letter we publish the answer of the True Democrat, thus leaving the reader to judge which of the disputants carry the palm of victory. In that Con- yention Governor Roane had many warm friends who. would have rejoiced had the mantle of success fallen on his shoulders !; but as the sovereign will of the democracy ordained otherwise, as good democrats, loyal to party usage and principles, they bowed gracefully to the action. Among others. we might enumerate his own ne- phew. Col. M. l.. Bell, who came home from that Convention and addressed a county democratic meeting in strains of thrilling eloquence, indorsing the name or Richard H. johnson, and for 1t he was ap- plauded to the very echo. We publish the answer of the True Democrat not for any seeminq reflections of personal nature It may have, for there is no public man tor whom we have greater personal regard than Gov. R., but because we believe 1t to De triumphant and brilliant refutation ot the aspersions of Gov.

From Lawrence County.
SMITHv1LLE, LAWRENCE
 July 9th, 1860.

EDIToRs TRUE DEMOCRAT 1esterday was a great day with us muggins' Tn these parts Some five hundred citizens of our county turned out to hear the two candi- dates for Governor, Col. R. H. Johnson, the reqularly and fdirly nominated candi- date, and Judge II. M. Rector, the denun- ciator of true democratic principles. The 9th of July gave a new impetus, new hope, and gladdened and warmed up the hearts and pulses of many an old stager and sol dier in the ranks of the democratic party. Great have been the foul aspersions and malignity heaped upon and shown towards R. H. Johnson-truculent have been the maledictions-foul and loathsome the stra- tagems resorted to in order to defeat him in this race. But, thank God, the crisis IS past; and the proud old flag of democracy still waves over the ramparts of free and enlightened body of independent citizens, who, having awakened to sense of their duty, dare do right, notwithstanding the clique in this county hold over their heads the threatening rod of extermination.
 would not, Messrs. Editors, have trou- bled you with this squib, but for the pro- pensities of tew inveterate and hostile enemies of Col. Johnson-they, after de- liberate consultation, determining to falsify and garble the remarks of Col. Johnson through the medium of that delectaJle sheet, q borrow from Rector) the Old Line De- mocrat. You may find in the next issue of that paper the Gay-est article that ever emanated from the brains of at least sir men-one former representative in the State Legislature-another whom the peo- pie disrobed of the quill and records, and elected an honest man to discharge the du- ties incumbent-another dirty mouth piece of Col. T. c. Hindman; and so on. Such are the defenders and personaters of H. M. Rector-such are the men who are endea- voring to break through the ranks of the democratic party-rend asunder it's princi- ples, and destroy the last vestige of its an- cient and time- -honored land marks. The people next August will set their seal of condemnation, and drive back the unwhole- some and distorted disorganizers who are bringing disgrace upon the party and odium upon themselves.
 It is quite useless to enter into detail of the discussion between the two candi- dates; but suffice it to say, that the loose and flimsy pretexts as advanced by Judge Rector, met with scathing expose at the hands of the gallant Johnson. Now, sirs, (Rector only used that word sirs 6S3 times and to all portions of the State-to every advocate of democracy-to those genuine and State rights democrats-to lovers of harmonious action in our ranks-to the yeomanry and freemen of Arkansas-we wish it distinctly understood that the county of Lawrence stands by the nominee of the State convention, R. H. J Johnson, and that she will roll up 600 majority for him in August next. Mark the prediction-I speak from the 6ook. Never falter in your devotion to truth and consistency, and my word for it, the True Democrat will still

THE POWER OF INsTNcT.-It is some what remarkable how quickly politicians abandon sinking ship. A correspondent writes us that Col. Can't too has abandoned Rector. How ungrateful! At the begin ming of his canvass, he was very much in- terested in the success of the Cincinnatus of Saline It was amusing to hear his at tempts to ridicule Conway and his policy something he did not understand. Finding Rector's South sea bubble" universally unpopular, he now cuts himself loose from it, and says he cannot defend it. We hear that he gives up his friend Peek also, as a hard case-an incorrigible disorganizer- whom he will not undertake to defend. Now this is too bad, especially as MT. Peek is not in situation to resent 1t.
