Ac4Rn, signed by prominent citizens, with ous regard to any former parties or political a. visions. recon neaiinr Col. FIanagin, of Clark county, to he people Of Arkansas as suitable person to fll ,he office of Governor, appeared in the Gazette of last week, and will be found ia ou. columns to-day.
 The recommendation is so good a one that, ve believe it wiI be favorably received by the people, aud, that Mr. tianagin will receive the.suGragesl of great majority. Bis quali6ca- tons fpr the office are cf the first kind. He is possessed of liberal education, q well balanc Q mind and an u'b.emi.h reputaelon. As g lawyer he ranks high q; the bar; as citizen he has the estem of all who know him; as pa triot he is second b none in his devotion to the Confsderacv. He was among the first to vol. uateer as 0 private in the army and from the ranks, rose to the position of Colonel, which he HOW holds. He is Q man of fine judgment, always cool and deiiberatige, and his integrity is uuq9estionable. Coming up, as he does, to the Jelf.r5onan standard, as being honest, ca U4ble and devoted 10 the cause of the South. we join in the recommendation and pat his name st the head of our columns. )0ur readers n l friend. wl} know C,l. Fansgia need 10 recommendation 10 iuGace them to vote for him, and to those uho do aot we can assure them that he E tbs man ior the position in these troahi3us times.

Ap- yause and cries of Good Sometimes we have dispute how many men Gen. Mcclellan has had, and those who would disparage him say he has had very large number, aud those who would disparage the secretary of war insist that Gen. Mcclellan has had very small nun Der. The basis for this is there is always q wide difference, and on this occasion perhaps wider one, between the grand total on Gen. Me Cleilans rolls and the men actually fit for duty, and these who would dispar;lge him talk of the grand total on paper and those who dlsparage lhe secretary ot War talk of those at present it fsr duty. Geu. Mcclellan has some times asked ;or tailly5 that he secretary of war did not give ,him. Gen.
