ANA --A N'-' --'A-A-' IN'N - EDIToRs TaUE DEMOCRAT:
 The immense crowd assembled in the court house yesterday, Was a clear indica- ton of the desire of the people to hear ex Senator R. w. Johnson upon the issues of the day. The ladies-always true to south ern rights-were ont in large numbers; R. c. Newton, esq, led off II. s short speech. I did not hear him, but learn from many who did, that he acquitted himself with credit, and exhibited a high order of talent. The telegraph had informed us of the par ticulars of the collision at Charleston- Lincoln's call for troops and the response to 1t, and the general feeling at the North. This news was the text of the eX-Senator's speech. He was listened to with intense interest-every one anxious to catch each sentence as it f.ll from his lips. and the glistening eyes of the larger portion of the audience, gave evidence of the deep emo ton produced by his solemnly impressive words. The ladies showered boquetts up on the champion of their cause, as testimo n:als of their respect, and the gentlemen manifested approval of the eviewS expressed, by repeated outbursts of applause. But one opinion prevails in regard to the speech. It is conceded by every body to have been the best ever delivered here.
 When the Col. had conclt:Jel, calls were made for Judge Walker. He took the stand, and for few moments gave satis- faction to all, but when he commenced abusing the Southern Confederacy and some of the noble spirits who have been foremost in vindication of southern rights, and honor, one half of the audience, in cluding nearly all of the ladies, withdrew. There was no necessity for the Judges in curing such decided mark of disapproba ton and if his feelings were wounded, he must blame himself alone. However, he has atoned for many political sins by promptly calling the convention together. Before this reaches you, his proclamation will have been received at Little Rock
 We are no longer divided. The people are alltogethcr for immediate secession. A meeting was held last night to take pre- liminary steps for raising military com panies to act as home guard. Three or four will be enrolled immediately equipped and uniformed-ready for the turn of events. Washington county is willing to peril all in defence of southern rights and independence. N.

 I am truly gratifed to know, and from the signs of the times I can confidently y say, Yell county, is now aroused to a sense of her duty, and will be az right upon the all important question of secession when she has chance to cast her vote. It can be heard in every crowd, that the president of the convention should immediately call the convention together, and all our dele gates have an opportunity of obeylng the will of the people The people now, every where declare they are ready for action, they say, they will not have Me man LiR- cola to reign over them.

Hon. R. W. Johnson in Benton County.
BENToNvLLE, April 16, 1861.

BENToNvnLE, April l6, 1861.
 Hon. R. W. Johnson filled his appoint ment here yesterday. At an early hour the square was thronged with people, and l was told by old residents that so large crowd had never before assembled in Ben tonville. Shortly after dinner Col. John son commenced speaking. The lower room of the court house was crowded, and among the audience were many ladies.- He opened with an impressive allusion to the importance of the subject he was about to discuss and the responsibility resting upon every one. After dwelling mo- ment upon the necessity of union of senti- ment among the southern people-he re- viewed the entire ground of difference be- tween the North and the South he de- picted the character of abolitionism-its strength and purposes-its hatred of the South and aggressive preparations for crusade against her cherished institution, and declared that our only safety was to rely upon ourselves for protection, and trust no longer to those who would surely deceive us. l will not attempt even an outline of the speech. It was earnest, hon. est and assioned-delivered in a man. ner of heartfelt conviction-oldressed to reason and not passion, and from the fre- quent rounds of applause, it was in unison with the feelings and judgment of his hearers It was an effort with which Ben ton is seldom favored and added greatly to the strength of our cause. The Colonel's extensive acquaintance with the people their confidence in his honesty of character and admiration for his long and consistent course in public life, adds much to the in huence of his counsels.
 At the conclusion of the Colonels speech, H. F. Thomson, the general, addressed the crowd outside the court house, where for some tine, he indulged his blatant abilities to their fullest extent. The Colo nel's speech was of kind which Thomson could not answer and he did not attempt it. He confined himself principally to . quasi defence of Lincoln, and speculations upon the probabilities of border state compromise.
 We received from Fayetteville this even. ing news of the opening of the war and Lincoln's proclamation.
 Public sentiment is entirely changed.- We are all one way Old Benton is right.
 Truly yours, PEDRO.

From the Memphis Avalanche, April 27th. SEIZURE OF TENNESSEE ARMS. Capture of the C. E. E;llman!

THE WAR VESSELS OF THE CAIRoifEsl
 An Attack upon Columbus Threatened!
 It has already been announced that the steamer c. E. iiilliaan was on her way to this city with 2,00o kegs of powder and 200 tons lead, besides large quantity of other military stores, amounting in value to S175, GOO, ordered by Gov. Harris at St. Louis. We learn by telegraph that she was seized eight miles above Cairo by large party of soldiers, who had fitted up the old sts aaer Swallow for the purpose. The overpower1hs force obliged the Hill- man to surrender, and her eaGeegg were, at their request, landed on the Missouri s.ae of the river, and the boat taken to Cairo.
 We saw a dispatch at six o'clock from tbe eitizeas af Columbus, which states that an attack was aplicip2ted there last night. They reoue.t us to send tfetnn men, arms and ammunition. .,
 There is an irrepressible desire upon the part of our sit;zens, to go to Colunihas' and to meet tle inyaders there. We doubt if the black republican mercenaT}es will dare put their feet on southern soil.
 No iaaii arrived from Cairo last night, and we are consequently without our cor respondents letter. 1t yss seid here yes terdav that the commander of tiss troops there was in Memphis yesterday, and if the report be true sufficient arrangements to capture him have been made.

From the Mercury of April II. Missionaries of the Evacuation.

" Their oaths are straws, their faiths are wafer
 cakes,
 And hold fast is the only dog, my duck;
 Therefore, eaceto be thy counselor.'
 It now appears that, under the peaceful pretcxt of ascertaining the precise condi- tion of Major Anderson's command in re- gard to provisions. and with view to a withdrawal, the abolition government has treacherously sought to arrange for the in- troduction of supplies and Of men into the post. Agent after agent has been sent on, whether to consult Major Anderson, or to be guided by his approval of their military plans, is not manifest. But, it is plain that our authorities have been dealing with men whose perceptions of honor are vague and faint. They have been deceived, and their confidence has been grossly abased in at least one instance--tAat of Mir. Fox. It has snice trsnspfred in the northern prass that this quondaea officer presented to the government scheme for reinforcing the fort, and, after conference with the Wash ington authorities, was sent here to advise with Major Anderson on the subject. Under fa.se pretences, his object here was accomplished. Our experience of the faith observed by our American enemies, while it shows their implacable malignity, and how interruptions they are in its gratifica- tion, will efectually teach us-and we trust once for all-that, in the settlement of difficulties, we must rely solely upon ourselves, h dealings with such people generosity is thrown away, and magma nimity and chivalry are esteemed as weak ness and folly.
