The Africans at Key West.

A letter from Key West relates the fol. lowing about the habits and customs of tn, 2" gentlemen from AfriCa," who are so journed there at the expense of the Fed eral Government:
 The barracoon is upon the beach, abou thirty yards from the surf, and affords fine facilities for bathing which some indulge in; but with the majority, abluion is com pulsory. Some have never taken off the clothes received when they landed, an1 will not until they drop to pieces, all sign, failing to convey an idea of the necessity for change, while others do no, like more restraint than is occasioned by the breech cloth, and rather than use any other ap. parel, have torn 1t into shreds.
 The manner in which many arrange themselves is quite ludicrous. One, a iil. tie fellow, has on nothing but vest, turn. ed wrong side out, and dangling about his legs; another has on pair of pants with the flaps behind third wears two shirts an overcoat, a blanket, and pair of socks number four displays military bearing, with a soldiers fatigue cap and pair ol striped pants, and number five simply ties his shirt around his waist. In one place you will find stout fellow wrapped in a thick woolen blanket, lying in the sun be- side fire.
 The women have been taught little modesty, and are learning to consider clothing necessary for their persons.
 A lew of them speak little English

TOTEsD |:

Near Des Arc, on Thursday morning last, BROWN PEARSON, son of Dr. John 5. and Frances Pearson, in the Sd year of his age
 On the 27th ult. in Pigeon Roost township, MT. LEVI BYRAN, in the 58th year of his age.
 The deceased had been resident of Prairie county during the past eight years. He was universally respected as good citizen, and for all those qualities which constitute the true man. Two years since he was elected County Treasurer, the duties of which he dis charged in manner satisfactory to all, and was a candidate for reelection. But death has called him hence. We deeply sympathise with his afflicted family in the loss of hus- band and father. May they profit by his ex- ample, and thereby revere his memory.
 On the mornhg~of the 22d ult., near Wat. tensaw, JAMES CHALMERS, son of John D. and Elizabeth H. Morrow, in the 10th year of his age. Also, on the morning of the 23d ult., WYL1E A, son of the same parties, in the 18th year of his age.

THINGS TO BE REMEMBERED

Let it De remembered, that such men as RoANE, REcroR, McCREERY. CARROLL, DuvAL, HEMINGwAY, WARREN, MITCH FL, and host of other old, tried and faith ful democrats are opposing the election of Richard H Johnson, the appointed suc- cessor in the Johnson Conway clique.
 Let it be remembered, that large pro- portion of the democratic press of the State are opposed to the Johnson.Conway dy- nasty, and battling for the election of HEN Ry M. RECTOR, the opponent of Richard H. Johnson,
 Let it be remembered that the supporters of the Johnson Conway faction, in attempt ing to sustain the pretentions of Dick Johnson for Governor, charge that Judge RECTOR is in favor of releasing the Real Estate Bank lands from the stock-mort- gages. which were executed to indemnify ! and save harmless the State against any loss which she might sustain on account of her liability, as surety, to pay the debts of that bank. Judge REoroR's letter, which we publish, brands the charge as being a gross islander, and declares his purpose to adopt no policy that could by the most re- mote possibility lose to the State the bene- fits accruing from those mortgages.
 Let it De remembered, that the Johnson Conway dynasty have pursued the same interruptions course of conduct towards Col. EDWARD w. CAN'T in the Southern District that they have towards Col T. c. HINDMAN in the Northern District, and that they are bitterly opposed to these tall enled gentlemen representing their re- spective districts in Congress. Finally
 Let it be remembered, that to vote for RECTOR for Governor and CAN'T for Con- gress you will show that you do not wear the Johnson. Conway collar, and are deter mined that the dynasty shall no longer rule the State of Arkansas.

 TIE TTuE DEMOCRAT CAUGHT AS A DIsoRGANIzER.-The proof is as clear as was ever made in the light of a monday sun, that the True Democrat is now sup porting disorganizer. Col. T. C. FLOUR Noy was nominated by the Democratic party composed of the counties.6f Phillips and Monroe for the Stafe Senate at aireG ular convenuon. Col. Oates, the pARrIo U. LAR PET of the True Democrat, has concluded to disorganize his party, refused to go into the convention, and has declared himself candidate in opposition to the regular nominee of the party.
 The True Democrat is now supporting this DIsoReASIzER, and says he is " not bolter from regular and fair convention of his party-but just as he was before the stocked affair at Trenton" Is this not enough to startle the people: the True Democrat is exerting its MIGHT and TOWER to place disorganizer in the State Sem ate, and then has the impotence to cry disorganizer against the gallant and elo- quent Col. Can't. Is this not proof 10 the hearts content that the True Democrat is for men and not party or politics. With one more instance of this kind, we will be compelled to read the True Democrat out Of the party,-we regret this, but we like party better than we do the True Democrat or any other disorganizing pa- per- Arkansaw Traveller.

A committee of radical Abolitionists have invited convention to be held at Syra- - e+1se on the- third "Wednesday iH August, tc nominate candidates for President and Vice President of the United States. This would indicate that Lincoln and Hamlin are not radi. cal enough for them.
 INCREASING CoNsUMPTIoS OF CoTToN. IS estimated that the additional number of cot ton spindles which will be put in operation in England and the United States in 1861, com pared with the present year, will consume 360,000 bales of cotton.
 - The district attorney of the United States has been instructed to appeal the cases of the prize steamers Miramon and Marquis of Havana, recently decided by Judge McCa- leb against the claims of the captors. Itis re- ported that in these cases Mir. Soule, who has conducted the defense, is to receive, or has re- ceived, fee of S4U,C00.
 --Presidents Pierce and Buchanan, to- gether with the whole of the latter's cabinet, support Breckinridge and Lane. Every Dem ocratic Senator, and three-ffths of the Demo- cratic members of the House, are the same.

DEATH OF AN EDITOR. .-J Joseph Gales, the venerable editor of the National h. teIhgencer, died at Washington the 2lst inst, in the 75th year of his age. He was one of the oldest and most respected editors of the country, His biography when written, will comprise very large and important portion of the history of the country for the last half century, As the editor of leading paper at the political center of the country, he was the friend, companion or counsellor of most of the eminent men connected with the Govern menl, and his urbanity, intelligence and hospitality, give him an universal esteem. In bis business relations no mans name ever stood fairer. It IS related of him that during the whole term of their business connection, nearly half a century we be- leve, he and MT. Seaton never had a set clement of any kind, and never an unpea- san, word passed between them. For several years past he has been very n- firm, but continued his visits to the office until the week before he died His death will be the cause of the deepest regret everywhere, even though he has gone like Ca we'll ripened shook. - Memphis Av- alanche.

We clip the following from one of Ex- Gov. RoANE's recent letters, published in the Old- Line Democrat. We trust that our readers will peruse it carefully, and remember that the True Democrat says, "that there are scarcely any Johnson's and Conway's in ofice."
 Let us look back a few years into our history and it will appear that soon after 'the organization of our territorial govern ment, ' five solitary Conways, all broth ers,' and seven solitary cousins to said Conways. might have been seen slowly vending their way towards her borders, each with commission in his pocket or expecting one soon. They halted, and soon Henry Conway went 10 Congress, where he remained as long as he lived, and cast his mantle upon the shoulders of A. H. Sevier, who was his cousin, and the son-in-law of Judge Ben. Johnson, and then district Judge. Sevier remained in Congress during life. James Conway was surveyor general during the existence of the territory, and first Governor of the State. His brother-inl law, William Pei- ham, succeeding to the surveyor generals office. E. N. Conway took the office of Auditor, and held it for eighteen years, think, and soon after was elected Cover nor. and has been ever since. Judge w. Conway B. performed on the supreme bench in the capacity of associate judge. John Conway was Commissioner to run boundary lines, and do other fat jobs, and Robert Johnson went to Congress with his brother-n-law, A. H. Sevier, in the Sen ate. The entirely family being provided for and Governor having to be elected, and none of the loose Johnsons being old enough, (the Conways don't breed, ) I was elected and served one term, and was set aside to make room for E. N. Conway, who had been relieved by the Legislature from office for short time and now as the constitution precludes longer term of service than eight years, and R. H. John son having become of age, he is to take the office of Governor, just to keep it out of bad hands, and Elias is to go 10 the Senate spell to keep Douglas and Ben jamin straight, and settle the squattsr sov- ereignty doctrine; and after all this, we see complaints in the True Democrat fre- quently, that there are scarcely any John- sons and Conways in office! God knows, if there had been any more of them in, then, it would have been necessary that more should have been born, and 1t is quite respectable family for numbers.

THE UNITED STATES AGRICULTURAL SocIEry.--This society will hold its Eighth Annual Exhibition in the vicinity of Gin cinnatti, Ohio, from the 12th to the 20th September next. As some particulars in reference 10 it may interest our readers we give the following from the pen of F. G. CARRY, Esq, in reference to its histo. ry and operations
 This society was organized in June 1852. by National Agricultural Conven- ton, called by the direction of twelve State Agricultural Associations, at which there were present one hundred and ffly-lwo delegates. representing twenty-three States and Territories. It has since been in ac. tive operation, receiving the confidence patronage, and favor of American Agri- culturists everywhere. It has held seven annual exhibitions in different parts of our Union. X N *
 Its exhibitions in Springfield, and Bos- ton, Mass. Philadelphia, Pa, Louisville, Ky, Richmond, Va, Chicago, H., have all been self-sustaining, the receipts meet ing the disbursements of upward of one hundred and forty.five thousand dollars for premiums and expenses.
 This Association has also had eight an !. nual conversations at Washinetopseity, and may truly be said to constitute aii efficlent Central Board of Agriculture. which was So frequently and highly recommended by Washington.
 This Association has under its direction Quarterly Journal of Agriculture, con 'ainng hundred pages of choice reading matter. and embracing most valuable sta tistics of the fairs held throughout the coun- try, scientific progress, legislative action Tn behalf of Agriculture, &c., &c.,
 There have also been established n Se- cretary's office, library and reading room, at Washington City, No. 356 Pennsylva. mia Avenue. < a x
 This society, through some of our agri- cultural and other papers. has received much abuse and vilifcation. principally from anonymous writers and newspaper scribes, and the vindlcaiion of their claims to public favor and patronage will not now be entered upon, but will be left to the yer dict of the only proper tribunal--an intel Iigent public sentiment.

 THE QUESTION OF PRINcIpLE.-We acknowledge our surprise that any of the supporters of MT. Douglas. who profess to ground their action upon the Baltimore Front-street Theatre Convention, should still pretend 10 be actuated by principle The Convention not only nominated MT. Douglas, but repudiated him; that is to say, it indorsed Squater Sovereignty and denied Squatter Sovereignty Douglas re- presenting one side of the question, and Senator Fitzpatrick the other. And the same parties. after the latter had declined to be placed in this equivocal position, put forward Herschel V. Johnson, Disun- onist, to run with Douglas, who prelends to be in favor of the Union.
 The ''irrepresslble conflict" announced by Messrs. Lincoln and Seward is no- where more distinctly visible, as regards the question of principle, than between the Northern and few Southern supporters of Stephen A. Douglas; that is to say, un- less their unity can be established by showing that both of them are quite desti- ute of any principle, except what may be termed, for convenience sake, the princi- pie of doing anything necessary to secure "lhe spols.'
 The Northern supporters of MT. Doug las may pretend that they are devoted to the "principle" of Squatter Sovereignty, and opposed to what they call " slave code" and that is the reason why they support him; but they as readily indorsed Senator Fitzpatrick as they did Douglas, when they thought that the former was to run with the latter though Fitzpatrick had but few days before voted against Squat ter Sovereignty, and in favor of what they call "slave code," in the Senate of the United States !
 Let the Douglasites, when they pretend before the people to have been governed at Baltimore by principle instead of lac- lion, be continually reminded of their stul- tifca,ion tn this particular.-[ Washing ton Constitution.

WITHDRAWAL OF LEON TRousDALE FROM THE MEMPHIS APPEAL.-The fol- lowing paragraph from the Memphis Au- alaache of the 2lst inst, will be read with pleasure by the Democracy of Arkansas. LEON TRousDALE, Esq, has been con- nected with the Memphis .4ppea5 during the past eight years. His ability as a wri- ter and his honesty as politician are &C., knowledged by all who knew him, person. ally, or have read his productions
 The withdrawal of Mir. Trousdale from the Appeal and his espousal of the cause of Breckinridge and Lane have caused great rejoicing among the true Democracy and much huttering in the ranks of the panic-striken Dongasiles The valedic- tory of MT. Trousdale has been like the explosion of bomb-shell. For two years his position has been painful in the ex- treme. Never supporter of Douglas, never an advocate of his foul heresies, al- ways the friend of Breckinridge, he has washed his garments of all laint of Squat ter Sovereignty and takes his accustomed place among the children of Democracy, In the withdrawal of Mir. Trousdale the Appeal has lost an able writer and the true Democracy has won powerful champion.
