 WOODRUFF a Democrat A man that would at

 tempt to bctray his party to the 'fh'g'! and who has spent nearly forty years of his lie Tn the eaef

 al anlis and at his age, to claim, or pretehd to be Democrat, is one of the most astonishing thngs that any man, in his right senses, could, Tor one moment, think about, as true. Wm. F.. Woodruff will soon satisfy the Democracy of Arkansas, that Hc IS HOt OHly lfNfg It"ef"f'''' A'' but that he Is aow and has been for three years, cndeavonng to cIami back among his old John Qntn- GU .4dams associates. The present indication of thinss raises violent presumption that such IS the case That he is now, not only received in fellow ship with the ,chgs but that he is taken into their ranks on probation with the express understanding, that if he acts ithfuy to them, until the close of the next session of the Legislature, he is to be con- flmed-if untaH.tuly, to be rejected We never were in political correspondence with any whig. in or out of Arkansas, in 1886, prior or subsequently, to that time, which TIlaiiam F. IPoodru6 we'll knew 10 be ialsehood, of the toulest kind when he made the charge few more such charges as these, made by Woodruff, will convince the Democracy of Arkansas, and every other can lid man. that hiS statements cannot be relied on as ruth but as base and wicked fabii;ations of his own yenal mind Not unlike the poisonous reptile, who covered himself with filth and slime, and ln ,ndeavoring to extricate himself from it, has be- ,ome angry with all who have stood alooi; and the ,ny alternative now left him, is to seek his nearest Iend or adversary, and endeavor to cast upon him his little mountain of corruption and slime, to re- ieve his own name of the heavy weight of iniamy md dishonor, by which he is surrounded!
