ES Judge Rector SAID he was not in favor of releasing the mortgages-we have proved that he was in favor of funding the debt and issuing new bonds which would most certainly result in releasing the mort. gages.
 Judge Rector SAID he was not in any way interested or connected with the Real Estate Bank-we have proved that he is interested to the tune of many Thousands of dollars If Judge Rector was honest, when he said he was not in favor of releasing the mort gagged lands, nor had any interest in having them released, he is certainly too ignorant 10 make good governor. The proof is positive, and of the highest order, that he HAS advocated the policy of funding the debt and issuing new bonds, which he and his friends must admit would release the mortgaged lands-and also that he has bound himself in the sum of serenity MOu- sand dollas to make a ice simple Hle to mortgaged lands which he has sold, and to which he had only the right of possession until the 26th day of October, 1861.

We affirmed in Wednesdays paper that Judge Rector was interested in the lands mortgaged to the Real Estate Bank-and that we would prove in to-day's issue that he was directly and 10 a large extent .invol ved on account of said bank. We now proceed to redeem our promise, and will do so fairly by confning ourselves to the record. Henry M Rector says in his late letter that he is not in 'any way indebted to, or connected with the bank; he is mistaken as we will show.
 By reference to page 40 of the report of the accountants appointed under the act of January 15, 1855, to investigate the af- fairs of the Real Estate Bank of Arkansas, it will be seen that J. c. Anthony, of Pu- laski county, mortgaged to said bank for thirty five shares of stock. the following described tracts of land, to-wit: The WEST FRACTIONAL HALF of section TWENTY-FIVE, tomnship THREE north of range FOURTEEN WEST containing 91 54 acres, the SOUTHEAST fractional quarter ofsection THIRTY- SIX township THREE north of range FOURTEEN WEST, con taining 15l. 90 acres and also the undi vided half of the SOUTH WEST fractional quarter of section THIRTY ONE, town ship THREE north of range THIRTEEN WEST, containing ". 91 acres-in all amounting to 327. 35 acres of land.
 These tracts of land were bought of Cor don N. Pcay, the Receiver of the Real Estate Bank, Jy Judge Henry M. Rector, and by him rold to N J. Can't Judge Rector has given bond for title to said Can't, binding himself under penalty of SEVENTY THOUSAND dollars, to make fee simple tile to said lands "with covenants of wa1rantee."
 Mir. Peay has certified that all the title Judge Rector acquired was right Co Me possession, and that the lands are still sub- feet to the mortgages; of course then, Judge | nector coulu noI Sl'e Io Oanll a oetleT tltle than he had himself, and as he does not and never did have a fee simple hMe. he can not possibly make such title to N. G. Can't; but he has bound himself under penalty of seyenty Mousand dollars to make ice simple title to said mortgaged lands To show we are right we will copy the title bond which Rector has given to Can't. and for the better identification of the mort gagged lands will print their description in large type, so that they can be readily com pared with the description of the tracts of land mortgaged to the Real Estate Bank as given above.

ARKANsAs.-We learn from prominent
gentleman of Arkansas, now in the city,
that the contest in that State between
Messrs. johnson and Rector was a purely
personal one, both being strong supporters
Of Breckenridge and Lane. OF the two,
Mr.. Rector, the Governor elect, our inform
ant says, is by far the more ultra State
rights Democrat, and was, therefore, bitter
ly opposed by Rust, Flournoy, and the other
Douglas leaders. When it was announced
that johnson was elected, the Republican
and the Cincinnati Enquirer, as usual,
claimed it as q Douglas victory. If
they had not been in too great hurry, they
would doubtless have claimed that Mr.. Rec
tor was a Douglas man, and that he had
beaten the regular Breck inridge candidates.
Col. Thos. c. Hindman, over whose de-
feat the Douglasites have been making mer-
~, is elected by a majority of six thousand,
and Mr. CAN'T, the ultra Breckenridge can
didate in the Second District, is elected by
about three thousand majority.-St Louis
Bulletin.

Abe Lincoln ON Disunion

Last winter, when the Democrats in Con-
gress were so ferociously threatening the
Union, MIR. Lincoln was in Leavenworth,
Kansas, where he made a speech from which
the following sensible remarks are extract
ed His policy with the Disunionists should
he be elected President, (as he aeiH Je,) is
plainly set forth. Read:
You Democrats greatly fear the success
OF the Republicans would destroy the In
ion Why 4? Do the Republicans declare
against the U Mon? Nothing Iikeit. Your
own statement of il is, that if the Black
Republicans elect a President, you won't
stand it. You will break up the Union.
That will be your act, not ours. To justify
it, you must show that our policy gives you
Just cause for such desperate action. Can
you do that a? When you attempt it you will
find our policy is exactly the policy of the
men who made the ULiou, nothing more or
nothing less Do you think you are justi
fled to break up the Government rather
than have it administered as it was ad-
ministered by Washington, and other good
and great men who made it, and first adj
ministered it? If you do, you very I'M
reasonable, and more reasonable men can
not and will not submit to you. While
you elect Presidents, we submit, neither
breaking attempting to break up the
Union. If we shall constitutionally elect a
| President, it will be our duty to see that
you submit. Old John Brown has just been
| hung for treason against State. We can
not object, even though he thought slavery
wrong. That cannote excuse violence, blood
shed and treason. 1t could avail him moth
ing that he might think himselfright. So,
! if constitutionally we elect a President, and
therefore you undertake to destroy the Uni
on, it ,oHI be our duty to deaf eoith you as old
John Brocn has been dealt ecih. We shall
try to do our duty. We hope and believe
that in no section will minority so act as to
render such extreme measures necessary"

OUTRAGEs IN HUNGARY.-A letter from
Pesth, under date of August LIST, says thai
the brutality of the police in the recent dis
turbances was far greater than at first sup
posed. The Viennese journals themselves
state that not fewer than one hundred and
eighty persons received stabs and other in
iuries. This number is truly fearful, and
yet it does not comprise all the sufferers, of
many of whom the police know nothing,
being under treatment in private houses
The manner in which the police acted is
the subject of loud and indignant complaint.
Amongst other things they caused twenty
axe blows from bludgeon TO be admins
tered to young man named Gorschel, son
of well-to-do citizen of Budia. This has
exasperated all the shopkeeping class
