We mid ieet week that we could find ao demo

i amde by the Intelligencer at Van Boren and ibc
Whig at this place :
•• MmJt or rata, waa the rale of Mr. Johnson's

but, on the contrary, use all the means and in

We were to much struck with the imp.italtow
thus east upon the fnrnd* ul Johneoa of * r*ols

enquired what “ friends” had ao declared them

upon information dented from others or upon what

That a candidate nominated by a Denocnti
State CoavenUxi should be more presented, an-l
efforts made by the whig party to place him in a
false position is no more lhaa democrats might ex
pect. To create /alar i*mr»--tind seek tUstcbv to
delude unsuspecting d -mocrats into the support
of federal whig candidates—seems to be a policy
of the whig patty as settled and fixe-* as is the h"«s
tility of that party to democratic pr.ociples.—

be jus< to Mr. Juwwox, »< shall be. far. we shall

party, 1 find the i Uow.ag of myself, to-wit: " Is

How man* conventions ha*e been ever held in
Arkansas by either party, with which the ether
was satisfied' How many should we hold, where
we should unite at alt, before we should satiaf*
the whig party with a democratic candidate ’ How
I would we do if we held no conwation and had a

that parly would no doubt be Wtirr tutwtit!, and
could then unite and concentrate on a loan of their
principles aad elect hun against the will of a deca
de*! but divided majority ut the people. Now 1
beheve that the entire democratic y«arty of the
State concurred in the propriety of bolding the
convention, and so deep an interest was felt lhat
every county but seven was actually represented
in the convention—al! pronounced it the largest
and fairest ever held in the Stale. I was no can
didate for the nomination—eoutd not expect it—
took no part tn getting up the convention—used
none of tlie efforts availed of by many others and
was the only one mentioned ic.Vi tau not pstttni
at the convention. I was not in the State of Ar
kansas at the rime.
I do not ascribe my nomination so much to my
own strength as to the difficulties of the demo
cratic party, and the conflict between the clams*
of other* with whom ! n- ver claused more thanan

to disc barge my iluty {»the eitent of abilities which
I hare, but hare nercr attempied to magnify. l!
they do not elect ate by the large majorities 1 bare
hitherto received, it ml! not be because I hare
abandoned tbeir principles or neglected or betrayed
any precedent trust, or have thrust myseif on them
in this cieotKW, for the gratification of my own
“ persona! ambition and aggrandizement,” Ami
if I should be def-.ated in this election, which i
am far T>>;u an ipa :ng. I shall meet it with pr

success, abui'y and wan: of democratic principle
on the parr of such as would violate the time hon

It will not be possible for me to canvass every

May 23th, giving *n account of the confession of
! one of ti e part,-* tinder aro st on susptooh of iw
tnx omwon- I in the murder of the C «den famlv:
• We have now a confession of one of the par
i ties under arrest for the Coaden massacre, which
| is thought to be worthy of credit. About the time
1 of the murder. a man by the name of Hand, living
near Blackbird. sadden v. and without assigning
• au» reason, let' (its home and went to New Jersey.
A few days afiet his wife also left. The move
ment* of these people were of course regard Oil as
. suspicious, and efforts have fur some tune pas’, been
made to ob a; i a knowledge of their whemabouts.
A few days s not Mrs. Hau l was brought to Ches
; tertown. and made statements to the following
i effecti That on the morning after Uie murder, at a
: very i-ariy hoar, a ran it by the name of Stephen
Shaw, who boarded in the house with horse f and
-husband, came running into the house, with a
musket in his hand, and very much under the n
fluence of liquor—that he told tier the Gooden
' family were murdered. and that himself, Taylor,
Shettoti and Murphy were the parties—that he had
been solicited by Taylor to join the conspiracy,
which he supposed was oniy for plunder, and not
for murder—Unit he and Taylor proceeded, on the
evening of the murder, to the ISwantown mill,
about a half nine from Cosden’s:) and were there
joined by Shelton and Murphy; that he had a
double bwr ie>l gun; Taylor a musket. Sfct Aon i
double barreled gun ami double barreled pistol,
and Murphv a double barreled gun. He then pro
ceeded to state that upon arming at the house,
Taylor fic.-d ihrough ’lie window an! shot down
Cosden. ami then, sua’rtiag away Shaw's gun,
shot Mrs Coadoo. as she ran out. He also sta'cd
that She.’on m irdefed Mss Cosden and Misa W. b
sier. and Taylor shot the black woman, but that
Murphy took no part in the murder. He asserts
that he himself was drunk and took no part in the
murder, and that he was afterwards so orerc-nne
by liquor that he fell m the fence corner and lay
there for several hours.
“Sh»w whs arrested on Saturday, and this morn
ing has mad-' a full confession, corroborating alt
the statements made by Mrs Hand, sav ng ’that
he knows that Mrs Hand’* testimony will convict
him. and that he raav as well make a clean breast
of if.’ He has heettcoufnated with the parties
charred. and adheres, in their presence, to ail the
particulars, as detailed by Mrs. Hand.
” Murphy, he says, he had never seer, before,
but believes the man he sees in jail as Murphy,
to have been at the murder There is little or no
doubt entertained of the truth of this confession.
“ The cause of the sudden flight of M> Hand
was feat that, n riw jnons IS iw*a *
might do her some bodily harm, to prevent her
divulging it.”

T ie Hon. A misread Bun, member uf the last
Congress from South Carotin*, who is ais-ire el--.
ted to !<• •■■st, ha* cnUrn a letter on t.,e subject
of the [i « -i an<t •)uties of The Siatc. He sides
wi:a Bute r, Chcrea, Barnwell, Hayne. Orr and
eminent cituens. tu opposing the pr. sent
temper of the State as rash, am) the police l mi
mediate secession as proceeding from “ bund ami
heedless counsels.' He draws a strong picture
of the disasters and losses which will inevitably
follow from proceeding to secede from the In ion
alon**. He et|K-ssea the further opinion, veiy d
cidediy, that the act of separate secession by
South Car din* wu. not be sustained t>v the a- '
or the ptib-.ic opinion of any other State.
Mr. Burt, however, is no Union man. He does
not dissuade us fellow -citixcn* t. in disu n ai. from
any ilesire that the Union shoaid be preserved.—
He noiiU, -n (he contrary, that the Southern Slat- s
cannot remain in the Union wit-nut degradation,
ami, ultimately, the aboUton of slavery; that
slavery ts of greater value to the South than the
Union, and that secession ts th-- onlv remninirtc
alternative. But he believes that it should only
be resorted w as the means of eat? ■ i-shmg * South
ern confederacy, in conjuetion wh other Sta e*
He is for di.inoon m a form wh-ch will make r
pvwi rful, and under circumstances which w-.il
.mahe.it surely s-jccewfn1. An attempt now, by
South Caroitna, would in h,s opinion, b* mcypedi
ent aud unwise. and seriously hinder and endan
ger the great object of jeer asmi.
In enforcing this re*, Mr Burt takes the sT'Ki;
ground that se-ession alone wi i!d denriv- r--uih
Carolina of the great protection wiueh she now
p-vunima her slave property. and w mid e\p<wc
' it to new aud fatal dangers. The pr-wpe-t of re
