 The ARKANSAS ADVOCATE, has been pub fished at Little Rock, the Seat of Govern ment of the Territory of Arkansas, for one year, and the present No. commences the 2d volume. It gives us pleasure to say, that the success we have met with since it's commencement, equals our expectations. At the beginning of our Editorial career, we avowed that our object was to serve the cause of the PEOPLE, and that the public good should be our chief end and aim and now upon review of the past, we have nothing 10 reproach ourselves for. 50 far as our poor abilities rendered us competent, we have always been the firm adcocates of the PEOPLES RIGHTS, and have uniformly protested against species of oppression, which, by certain dominant party, was attempted to be exercised over rREEMEN. That party, with a pow erfui en- zine, tan affiliated press,) partial and one sided as to local politics, at complete com mand, was fast riseting fottors upon the siu- saspocting people of. 4 Arls K lsarsas-and when we first dared to tell the people of their rights, and speak truth to these tyrants in miniature, it was thought to be in us, a measure of so daring character, that our speedy downfall was predicted: but the PEOPLE whom we served, thought different Iy, and we are not yet < crushed to atoms.''

 It is maxim ia politics, that ss power is always stealing from the many to the few :" and by our late increase of patronage, we find it not to be an unwise one We feel proud that the public have not thought us unworthy Of their support, as is daily manifested to us, by additions to our sub- scription lists, and we hope, by faithful adherence 10 the principles we have es- poused, to continue to merit their appro- hation.
