termine and decide all questions per- talnlng to the location of sail Col lege."
 It will be seen by the above Reso- lutions, that the Arkansas Baptists assembled in State Convention, re- solved to build up and endow First Glass Male College within the State that SlO0,000 should be the Fund that $500 should entitle the donor to one perpetual scholarship-that no subscription should be due till the whole amount shall have been raised that certain sums he used for Col lege building, Agents salary, etc., that every SI0O shall entitle to vote in locating the College, and that two thirds of the votes should determine the spot.
 Some persons propose to me new terms of subscription, but 1 cannot vary from the above; besides, am not informed of any plan superior to the one adopted: this plan is approv- ed by the most intelligent citizens of the State, both Baptists and others, and they have shown their approval by giving their bonds to aid in the work.
 l have now over half the amount in bonds which 1 consider very en- couraging success considering the state of affairs when began; but to complete this noble enterprise almost alone, would require longer time than 1 can devote without great and con tinued pecuniary sacrifices; I have therefore fallen upon the following plans, believing that united effort will complete the work at once and release the Agents from an immense amount of hard labor, loss of time and outlay of money. My plans are submitted.
 l. have had large number of Bonds printed which 1 send out this week to every subscriber to the Ar kansas Baptist, and also to some not subscribers but whom 1 suppose fla vorable to our College.
 Now, kind reader, will you please fillup the Bond with whatever amount you are able and willing to give to this nohlest of purposes which is de- signed to bless the State of Arkan- sas for centuries to come? Do not fail to send something-just what you are willing to give-and send at your earliest convenience, as l am very anxious to know what amount, Gf any,) will still be required by the per- sonal presence of the Agent.
 If, however, you cannot give any thing yourself, will you be so good as to hand the accompanying Bond over to some acquaintance of yours who will give, that through your agency l may be assisted in this much beloved object? When you shall have done what you can, please mail the Bond thus filled, to me at Little Rock, Ark, cSre of Watson & Hooten. The amounts will be reported through the Arkansas Baptist as fast as received.
 ?. Every Minister of the gospel in Arkansas, who will send us as above, $l,0O0 in good Bonds, shall be enti- tied to the tuition of one pupil in the College when put in operation, free of charge, for Four Years!
 Now, brethren, exert yourselves little and thereby secure the tuition for that son of yours that he may be a polished jewel Take Bond with you to your several appointments, and you may raise the amount in a very few days; or, spend few days as special agent: you will hereby do good to yourselves and others.

 An extract from the inaugural or salu- tatory address of Thos. c. Peek as editor of the Bloomington Statesman, June 9, 1858. Read it-Read it:
 "INAucuRAL.-The only question of federal po cy upon which the democracy is at present divided (and Tn reference to which it becomes us to speak with any degree of partcularty,) is that involved in the late Kansas controversy. Though we re- gard this question now somewhat obsolete, yet in view of the great importance attached to the principle 1t involves, we may be permitted to say that the great doctrine of popular sorereiqnty and non-tnterrenfton, as established by the Kansas and Nebraska bill, receire most cordialindorsement
 With these views, we of course opposed to the principle and main features of the English Kansas bil.''
 That was two years ago, and there has been time for repentance, but listen to what he says in his autobiography in the Old Line Democrat of June ', 1860:
 .sDuring the time (i. e. the time when he so cordidAy indorsed' the great doctrine of popular or squatter sovereignty) we edited without pay the democratic organ of the county in which we lived, and as an evidence of the earnestness in which we embarked in thecause-the great doctrine of popu- lar sovereignty-we aided in swelling its demo- cratic vote at the succeeding election, sepen hun dred votes higher than had ever before reached. We shall ever be proud of the part we sustained in that memorable contest.'
 If Douglas should be elected President he certainly will not forget so disinterested friend of himself and his "great doctrint of popular sovereignty."
 Again, in another issue of his Illinois paper, MT. Peek said: "Never before was such an inclination manifested to do honor to the great champion of popu1ar soyer- eignty," and in this Mr. Peek willingly CO., operated without receiving single "red."
 In Illinois " withomt poy' MT. Peek says |" the great doctrine of popular sovereignty received his most cordial indorsement.
 In Illinois withom poy he joins in doing "honor to the great champion of popular sovereignty"
 Truly has the poick said:

 WHEREAS, It has been our painful duty to con- nit to the mother earth, the remains of our late beloved brother, ABNER $. SHAW, whom the Grand Architect of the Universe has seen fit in his inf nte wisdom to call from labor in the lodge below to refreshment in the Grand Lodge on high. Our much beloved brother was released from suffering on the 9th inst, 2li minutes after o'clock, A. M. In his death, the loss of good citizen, a worthy member of the Masonic fraternity, and an affec- tionate and devoted husband and parent is to be deplored; the sunset of his life has preceded it's noon, but we mourn with hope, for we trust that he has found favor in the sight of the Grand Mas ter of the Universe; we truly sympathise with tie widow orphans and relatives of our deceased brother. Resoloed, That the untimely loss of our much lamented brother should impress upon us the un. certainty of lfe and the certainty of death and the importance of so living at all times to be prep lred for the nasty summons of the Grand Mas ter of the celestial lodge.
 Resolped, That we cannot refrain from lowing in sorrow for the loss of our beloved brother, vet we rejoice in the hope that hes beyond the sorrows of life and now enjoying thepresenceof the Celes tial Grand Master.
 Resolued, That the lodge and jewessbe clothed in mourning, and that the members wear the usual badge of mourning for thirty dayss
 Resoired, That these resolutions be spread upon the records of this lodge; thafa copy be delivered to the widow of the deceased and a copy sent to the True Democrat and<Old Line Democrat for publication.

WITH PAY.
 An extract from the first number of the Old Line Democrat in which Thos. c. Peek defines his position for pay, on the 18th of September, 1859:
 The Kansas-N Nebraska bill clearly established the doctrine that Congress cannot lawfully inter- fere with, by aboishing, prohibiting or otherwise impairing the vested rights of slave property in the territories. This doctrine has been fully and trumphantly confirmed by the supreme court the Dred Scott decision, and the additional doctrine affirmed, that slavery is entitled to all the affirma tive protection guaranteed by the constitution to all and every other species of recognized property
 'It is contended by Mr. Douglas and that class of politicians that if the territorial legislatures do any act infringing upon the rights of slave or other property, the aggrieved parties may apply to the federal courts for protection of their ri ights-'
 This is what MT. Peek says is contended by MT. Douglas" the great champion of popular sovereignty Mat class of politicians-that is to say, those who like Mir. Peek "cordially indorse ike grem doc Urine cf popular sovereignty."
 Again, a few spondulicks opens his eyes to the "damnable heresy'' of the great doctrine of popular sovereignty" and he gives utterance to the following:
 |" These plain and practical questions show conclusively that if the territorial legislature fail to protect the rights of property in slaves there must be according to the very nature of our insti tutions, the duty of protection resulting from some higher quarter. We have shown that the courts are inadequate to afford full protection, and so the duty must devolve upon Congress. That's where the responsibility rests-in Congress and it cannot shirk that respo sibilty without proving recreant to the high trust committed to it's care, and the sacred duty of protecting all citizens in the enjoy ment of all their rights in territory over which it has the right of jurisdiction
 In Arkansas miM pay, he pronounces |" the great doctrine of popular sovereign ty'' "damnable heresy."
 In Arkansas pah pay he reads out of the party any and all--except Mr. Rust-who has the slightest leaning towards this great champion of popular sovereignty."

EyouGH OF IT.-It is said that the matter of famly has been sufficiently discussed by this paper. and that subject should be all lowed to go to sleep; it may be proper for us to state that we have not given undue importance to the subject without ample cause. The Old Line Democrat, like all the opposition papers heretofore commenc- ed the cry of family, and it becomes perfect ly legitimate for us to retaliate by showing, that the ''boot is on the other foot.'
