 -HURRAH FOR EMERY. Benton county, the Banner democratic conn ty of the whole State, held her con. vention on Saturday, June 1st, and instructed for Col. Ben T. EMERY, oI Pope County, as her first choice, foi governor; Hughes, second choice Also for General N. B. Pearce, fol Commissioner of State Lands.
 We had the pleasure of meeting in our town last Thursday, Mr. N B. Crump, of Boone Co., one of the candidates for the position of State Auditor. MT. c. is most pleasant gentleman, and commands the high. est respect and esteem of his fellow citizens at home. He has a strong man to run agalnst, but does not seem in the least Respondent.
 MT. c. G. Newman, editor of the Pine Bluff Press, is candidate for the State Senate from his county. Jefferson county has some able men, but none who would watch more closely, or advocate more zealously, the best interests of Arkansas, than Newman. We would be proud to see the next Senate composed of just such active, energetic, vigilant and eininently sound democrats, as c. G. Newman.
 The Democracy of Benton coun ty in convention assembled adopted the following resolution:
 Resolved, That we urge upon our sister counties of Northwest Arkan- sas the propriety of having all their delegates to the state democratic convention meet in Little Rock the day before the convention assemblies, for consultation as to the interests, needs and wishes of our section of the state, and the best mode of se- curing the same, to the end that their action in the convention may be united and harmonious" 
 --GooD TIDISGs FROM THE WEST ERN SLoPE.-The election news from Oregon is glorious. Whitaker, democrat, is elected to Congress by a small majority. The Legislature will be democratic on joint ballot by a slight majority. This will give us another democrat in the U. s. Sen ate.

 The editor of the Prescott Dis patch and the editor of the Russell vile DEMOCRAT complain that they do not receive the Globe regularly. The paper is promptly mailed to those gentlemen, and they should interview their postmaster on the subject, as the Globe is a good paper, and they all sometimes take it. Globe.
 Correct, sir. The Globe is a good paper, but then we have one of the best postmasters in the government, and we know it is not his fault. We hope to get the Globe from now, henceforth and forever, with more regularity and promptness.
 Ut turns out that Judge Key neither contributed nor was asked to contribute, to the Republican cam paign fund. But the lie will gallop along as usual.-Memphis Avalanche
 It turns out a devilish sight better then with Key than it does with some of she Post-masters not a thousand miles from here; for we have seen some mighty strong ap- peals for contributions to the cam paign fund, which were sent to post masters in this part of the moral vineyard.
 Maj. Wm. F.. Woodruff, Jr., one of the worthy candidatds for the po- sition of State Treasurer, passed through town last Thursday, and did us the honor to give us a friendly call. Maj. Woodruff is one of the true men of Arkansas, and under al most any other circumstances than those which surround the contest for the Treasurership this year, we would support him most zealously and cheerfully. We regret exceed ingly that we cannot consistently support him this year for Treasurer. We are bound now through our sense of consistency and right to support Gen. Churchill, for we look
