Keep it Before the People.

Keep it before the people, that the policy of Gov. Conway has been to make the banks themselves pay off the State debt, both principal and interest; that it has been his policy to have the assets of both banks collected and applied to the redemption of the bonds of the State yet outstanding and unpaid; and that Rich H. Johnson is pledg- ed to this wise policy.
 Keep it before the people, that the -poli- cy of Judge Rector is to issue new bonds, that instead of making the assets of the banks pay the debt, both principal and interest-he proposes to fund both, and thus make a new deh drawing twice the interest of the present debt.
 Keep it before the people, that Rich. H. Johnson is in favor of foreclosing the mort gages on the Real Estate Bank debt-thus relieving the public from paying it by taxa tion-and that Judge Rector proposes to relieve said mortgaged land, thereby throw ing the burden of the debt upon the people and compelling them to pay it by grevious taxation.
Arkansas true Democrat., 1860-07-07
The "Old War.Horse."

Dr. Mitchell fully sustained his reputation as an eloquent speaker on Saturday night last. After Col. Can't had flooded the house with verbiage and borrowed wit, spoiled in the telling, Dr. Mitchell arose and completely exposed the weakness and in- sinceri of his arguments. He showed up '" cousin Tommy Peek in his true light. The little ambition of Col Can't appeared ex :essively diminutive. Dr. Mitchell made fine effort. There was something noble in the !" old man eloquent" as he stood up boldly and denounced the hypocrisy of the miserable "tricksters" who were cry- ing out family" How witheringly fell his exposure ot Col. Gantt's claims to be called the peoples candidate" Dr. Mitchell showed clearly that his claims on the peo- pie were strongest and that he scorned the demagoguish clap-trap of his opponent. It was true of their speeches here, as promi- nent citizen of Memphis. who heard them at Brownsville, remarked, that Mitchel's speech was fuli of noble and manly senti- ments, and that Can't was buf1ioonery and demagoguism. From his looks, as we'll as from other indications, we are persuaded the gallant Grntt" would be very much pleased to quit the canvass. For Mitchel's national politics read the article-.' John c. Breckinri.lge"
Arkansas true Democrat., 1860-07-07

the nominee of the democratic party, in advance, as our "first choice," and also predicted just what has happened-that the veal of the party and of the country was, to a great extent, in the hands of Douglas. It rests with him to say whether Breckinridge or Lincoln will be the next President. We suppose that as our first choice is the first choice of southern demo- crats, that the Sage will not support him, but go for Henry s. Foote, as we under stand that he ruined his political fortunes in Mississippi by supporting him against that noble patriot, Jeff. Davis-the author of the southern platform. v
 We make the following extract from letter from gentleman in Monticello, in whose judgment we have every confidence. After subscribing for the True Democrat, he adds:
 "I thank you for Johnson's address, it is plain practical, common sense address, with all his posi- tons boldly and clearly defined, while Rector's manifesto is the embodiment of weakness, mystery and absurdity. I take no part in politics, belong to no party; but when aspirants for office come before the people, exercise the privilege of voting for the men who regard as best qualified for the office. If vote for democrat want him to be ful-blood-if if for whig or knows nothing, the same way. detest these fellows who are on the fence and on both sides of the fence, suits their conv venience-a regular hybrid breed with stripe down their back.
 The people are getting warmed up here on the subject of the August election. Notwithstanding Drew county instructed for Can't tor Congress, l believe M tchel and Johnson will carry the county by large majority. We got the news here this evening that the Baltimore convention had nomi- mated Breckiuridge anu Lane-a capital nomina- Iion.
