This pledge wns absolute, voluntary. y Gov.


Yell locked hi, hands and to Walker be gave the
key. By this heinous offence he proved himself
,ratorous to his party. .-creaa. 10 his Professed
principles, recreant 10 the name and reputation
he had acquired, and false to the confidence re-
posed in him by the people Of Arkansas. This
he did while GovERNoR. He offered 10 leave a
clear track for Mr.. Walker whig, The whig
nominee for Congress, .hocgh eventually Gov.
Yell became the oPponeE, Of Mr.. Walker. Did

These above are sober questions and require
sober answers. They have grown out Of iadis-
pa!sJAe eridences Of Yeii's iraiiorous conduct TO
his party. at a time when that party could no,
spare the faith OF lis hunbIes, member, much less
then that Of one Of its prominent leaders. -.


The Ynkindes, Gu. of all was dealt AFTER be had
made this foul pledge. when be denomiEated hi,
friends, his associates, the very men who helped
him to power, his fellow democrats, a "SwIss
CoRPs" (underscoring the phrase) whom hc "had
no desire 10 command" This is true, undepiabIy
true. Does any one Of YelI's friends deny III
Dare any one deny il. We challenge them,


in the face of the world. to deny it. II they do
not, they acknowledge the truth. Will Judge
Brown deny it, or either of his Yell colleagues!
Will the Bannerl Will Gov. Yell NO! Gov.
Yell will not, for he knows It's true to the full ex.
tent. We challenge the Yell candidates, the
Banner, the friends of Yell to deny it, to deny
publicly that Yell did not make the pledge to Mr..
Walker, and if no. so denied. consider ,ha, they
admit the truth. Win they now support hiu,-
will they defend the pledge or excuse III We
shall see. ,g.,yiy EJ.II.H ... .-'-s.


Independent Demoerdis.-An exchange paper
says. since the result Of the New Hampshire
election, the inquiry has been common-"Whs,
are independent democrats! Tho answer is easy.
They are men who are intependen, Of democratic
principles ''-".-'


Ditto Of the disorsanizng Yell candidates of this
county, They IRE entirely Independently Of all
principles save such as they themselves ike.
