 SEVERAL partie9 have asked for the authorship of the communication signed A. J. w. in the DEMOCRAT of a few weeks back. Exercising our prcrogatives in accordance with the request of our correspondent, we re- fused to give his name, but freely Of fered the use of our columns to any wishing to answer the points in the communication. In matters where only political relations are touched and personal character is not involv- cd, we take it,can make no difference as to the name. This could be want ed only for personal use. The mat ters in controversy were all that were necessary, and they were in the communication, and it wouldbe right, and we so offered our columns to any one wishing to answer or disprove them.

Mucn as Is said about the debt ridden citizen of Arkansas, he is still in g position to boast over his New York brother, who, not being in pos session Of the necessary "spondoo licks" is liable to arrest and impris- onment for SIX months. New York statesmanship may see how 1t will help tI,e debtor to collect, and the poor fellow to pay, by putting him m jall six months, but Arkansas has moved long way away from such antiquated notions Of legislation, She secs the sense in giving one oi her citizens who may owe debt the freedom of his person to make mon ey to pay, thus saving his credit and saving him the disgrace of impris onment at the same time.

STATE finances easy, State and County taxes both together only 60c on sl00 for general purposes, our county almost entirely out Of debt, and our county scrip worth almost dollar for dollar, our paupers board cd for $6,25 in scrip per month, and none of them scarcely at that, and our county jail empty, it does seem that the occupation of the man who is accustomed to manufacture sym patby by sailing over high taxes and great public burdens and hard times, was in great danger of being de stroyed, and that without remedy. Barring accidents such croakers will be driven to the sheer necessity ol manufacturing something new to croak on or else quit their business and that very soon.

 THE Wheelers have met and did their do, the ticket We print else where. The men have been men toned who are to stimulate demo- cratic zest and vim in the approach ing canvass. It is to the common credit of the county to say that tue ticket in tue maln is composed Of very good material. IL gives us pleasure 10 say as much, for tue re suit of elections like the verdict of juries, cannot always be forecast with certainty, and in case of a mishap on the one hand it is some comfort to know that there IS no serious dan ger Of fatal calamity on the other. Some of the ticket has the virtue, if virtue it be, of pertinacity in knock | ing at the door for office. As the poet remarks, "They have knocked before and knocking still" Some of it comes from democratic ranks and some republican. Taking it all in all the man who wants to serve lns country simply, will fail to see any good reason for recalling the power of government from where it has so safely and profitably reposed for years past, to turn it over to hands like those extended so imploringly by this ticket to receive it. After the democratic primaries on the 26th the music will set in in earnest, and wouldn't it be jolly if the situation should be enliyened by the advent of simon pure republican ticket a part of the way at least which now seems altogether likely. It would be like running upon a bran new exper- fence for the masks and guises all to be torn away and sure enough re- publican candidate step out in the field. Such q one would have the credit of appearing in his true colors at any rate. Something that cannot always be said, and of striking from his own base.

THE peace, law and order, the ab- sence of strife and disscntions, of frays and murders, and the sober ness of the people IS an argument grander than can be made ! nor tai man ID favor of our present con dition on the temperance question and for it's maintainance among our homes and people. If we prefer so- berness to drunkenness, if we prefer order to confusion, if we prefer good morals to profanity, if we want to protect our boys and shield them from the tempters snare, if we want to make our community one of safe ty whose face is sat against crime, and where law and order reign su- preme, let us maintain our present status, and as we have 1t out, let us keep it out, this terrible source of crime in the land, and we can do this only by voting against license in this at the forthcoming election.

A MEETING of the wheel in the ,

A MEETING Of the wheel in the 2d congressional district is called to meet at Conway, July 22d, to nomi- nate candidate for congress. Says the. Morrilton Star "the wheel is still rolling" We suppose he aimed to say the wheel was still railing. But after Breckinridge gets through with that ticket it will be fou.d that 1t was derailing only.
