 The last Gazette contains a communica- tion under the signature of GA Citizen,' eli cited by the article in our last, under the nature of "A Farmer.'' In jnstice to Gov. Fulton, we make the following extract from it:--

 "Ahout the middle of Sept. last, BENJA- MIN l.. MILEs was appointed Judge of Chicot County Court, in place ofJudge Ma gruder, deceased. When the Legislature met, in October, Mir. Patton vas recom- mended for the office. by the members from that county. and the Secretary of the Ter ritory, under the impression that Mir. Miles had declined to serve. made out a commis- sion for Mir. Patton. The Governor, in signing it, could have had no intention 10 remove Mir. Miles, (even if he had been so ignorant as to suppose he had the power), as no complaint was made against Judge Miles appointment He appointed Judge Miles, in great measure, from his own personal knowledge of him, and no one can suppose that he designed to remove him, without cause. Towards the close of tAe session, Mir. Patton visited Little Rock, and informed the Governor that NIT. Miles had qualified as Judge when the Governor informed Mir. Patton that his {Patton's) commission was void, and the Secretary erased the entry from the record of appoint ments. Mir. Patton and Mir. Triplett seemed satisfied with the Governors ex- planation, and it was hoped no cause of complaint would grow out of the circuni- stances. Judge Miles stands fairly enroll ed upon the record in the office of the Sec retary of the Territory, as the Judge of the County Court of Chicot county; and, with this simple statement of facts. leave 1t to the public 10 judge of the correctness of this late attack upon Coy. Fulton, and to deter. mine whether or not 1t ought to render hin unpopular. A CITIZEN.n
