Arkansas true Democrat., 1860-10-06

available candidate for thcm.
 It will be found in the ably prepared and authoritative article in the New York Fri bune, of July 25th, 1859, the most of which was copied into this paper soon after, in which it declared:
 The great body of the republican party arc no doubt, willing to co operate in the 1 election of President with four classes of the opposition:
 l. Those who originally opposed the re- peal of the Mis-, oui compromise and the passage of the Kansas Nebraska bill, and still host le to those measures.
 H. Those who resisted the Kasas policy of Pierce and now condemn it. [ III. Those who denounced the Lecomp- ton English bill, and still repudate 1t and its authors, apoogists ans abettors. %IV. Those who will resist strenuousiy and consistently the acquisition of foreign territory in order to increase the area of I slavery in this republic, and the legaliza- tion of the African slave trade, and the adoption of slave code for the territories by Congress.

 Looking to the North, we regard as com ing within thesscope of the organization we have indicated, all such democrats as John Reynolds, Horace F. Clark, Garnett B. Adrain, John w. Forney and John | Hickman; and all such Americans as Ma thaniel s. Benton, Daniel UIlman, James H. Campbell, Henry NJ. Fuller and Will liam Milward. At the South, unless we misunderstood their position, it wouFl~em- brace such men as John Bell, Edward Bates, Il. Winter Davis, John NJ. Bolts, Emer- son Etheridge
 Is there any inconsistency, any insupera- ble obstacle, in the way of a cardinal co- operation in the coming contest. between republicans and persons holding the opin. ions the gentlemen are supposed to enter tain in respect to the acquisition of foreign territory for the purpose of planting sls very thereon, the re-opening of the African slave trade anl congressional intervention for the establishment of slavery in the ter ritories. Cannot they combine to over throw the nullfiers and propagandists of l the Calhoun school in their efforts to over ridge the constitution, and make negro sla- very the dominating interest of the coun- try. ARE NOT THESE THE ISSUES | UPON WHICH THE PRESIDENTIAL. CONTEST IS TO TURN? Donot Vim. II. Seward and John Bell, Salmon F. Chase and Edward Bates, Schuyler Colfax and John Hickman, Henry M Fuller and Horace F. Clark, HOLD PRECISELY THE SAME SkNTIM EXITS IN RELA- | TON TO THESE? Anl shall these gen l q .l.. Il. Il
 unite and give EFFICIENCY TO THEIR COMMON OPINION in tho next national administration, or by warning on each other, insure q triumph to their common foe? We speak as unto wise men; judge yc what we | say.
 It will be found in the. columns of the black republican organ at Cincinnati, of later date, and copied into the Nashville Banner, as an evidence of MT. Bells strength, in which the editor declared his readiness to support Mr. Bell, from his knowledge of his past record! and which again declared, when provoked by the stric- lures of the Patriot on Mr. Bates letter: 1 We cannot believe him (NIr. Bell really desirous of any further extension of slave ", or that he would willingly, any more than Henry Clay would have done, u~e his offclal influence in any position to promote that object. Believing this, we would our selves even support him for the Presidency, were there a possibility of concentrating the northern opposition upon him generally, and were it not for the persistcncv of his political friends in maintaing principles diametrically opposed to those alike for the republican and old whig parties.
 1t will be found in the columns of the New Era the abolition organ at Washing ton, which said in reply to some strictures of the Nashville Banner:
 The Nashville Republican Banner. the organ of John Bell, k spelling all the fine prospects of that gentleman for the Presi dency by its coarse abuse of the black re- publicans. While Mir Bell is hob-nobbing with the republicans and scmi-rcpublicans of Pennsylvania and New York, his organ IS denouncing black republicans as being no better than the black democracy, and the great original sin of each of these parties eolHiiiS to tiIe hepuDilcdn banner, IS the iact that they trace their origin to Thomas Jefferson, who is denounced as an accom- pllshed and ineffahlc demagoguc,
 It will be found in the following para graph from the New York Post, of the 25th of last month, in reply to lettbr of Hon. Jere Clemens, declaring Mir. Bell to be sounder on the slavery question than Mr. Breckiuridge
 Jeremiah Clemens, once Senator from Alabama, has written letter assigning his reason for supporting Bell instead of Breck. inridge. He thinks Brecl1inridge is as good or as bad as an abolitionist, and that Bell is the only candidate to be trusted by the South. It is news that Breckinridge is fishy about negroes, though we are not sur priscd to learn that Bell is all our fancy painted him. In no other way could we account for this kind of support his ticket is threatened with tn this State. It was very naughty of him, however, with such sentiments and such friends, to come to New York, as he did once, and lie around for week or more, laying pipe for nomi- nation for the Vice President on the repub- llcan ticket. It was very naughty.
