 GENTLEMEN:-The news of Gen. Elias 5Reelor's appointment, to the office of Marshal } aoi the State, has diflused general joy and sat 3siacton throughout this section of the conn- l try Itis needless for me to speak of the high scIaims of Gen. Rector, upon his party. They gare well understood. He is one of tie old ssettlers of Arkansas; he emigrated here more sthan twenty years ago; and during large portion of that time held the office of Mar sshal. By his upright and honorable course, The has become universally esteemed by the lpeople of the State. He discharged the duties sof his office with fidelity. He has ever been Ia consistent member of the democratic party; holding to the great principles of Jefferson .and ot Jackson, he made them his rule of .conduct. He was sacrificed in lS40, for his lpolitical principles; being the first victim to the rapacity of a party whose cry during the |canvass was ''proscrlption shall be proscrib- !ed.o He was removed to make room for a |vlolent whig; and it was, certainly, his right Ito expectto be reinstated, when, in the changes

 incident to our form of government, man

 was placed at its head holding to the same

 political creed with himself Mir. Polk has

 done well; and has shown that in the exer- 'cise of his appointing power his course will be directed with prudence and wisdom-tha he will not appoint any one to office unless The IS we'll satisfied that the office will be well filled. By appointing Gen. Rector he has no lonly secured to the government the services Iol an efficient officer, but has discharged a duty which has given great satisfaction to 'the people of the State. It was, doubtless through our able and distinguished Represen- tatve elect, in Congress, that the Presiden learned that Gen. Rector's claims to office were of so high a character. Gov Yell, by his services in this behalf, has added another s to the many claims he has to the confidence s of his constituents. It is certainly a matter sof pride to the people that they know tha ] their interests are in the keeping of such mer sas Yell are. can assure you that Gov. Y el ever will possess the confidence of the people { of the good old county of CRAWFORD.
