 Not great while after this, Mr. Newton ielt Arkansas and settled in Kentucky. After nnmbor of years absence, we find him agaln, m 1887 1 believe, removing to this country; and from That hour to his, pe find he hdS 6een n oFFICE,-enloying the most lacrdtire stations which our country afforded.

 That he was utterly broken when he came here, l understand to have been his own declaration. Well, that was his misfortune, name Ii net for censure. But he seems not like broken man now; and if we may judge from appearances, ] should say that this State, and all her Democracy, had been no unklnd step-mother 10 Mr. Newton A man oi the gentlest manners in the world, so plain, so frank, so uniformly friendly, and apparently inoflensive, itcould not be believed of hiin, nor can assert that he himself was aware, that he harbored at heart the germ of enmlty, which occasion soreadily could sprout to bitterness and unrelenting partizan perse- cutlon l speak of him at the time of his return to this State.

 Forthwith, upon his return here, he was made FIRST CLERK in the Real Estate Bank at salary of $500 or 5000. In 1889, | think, he was made CASHIER of that Bank. at salary of THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS. which was reduced to TWO THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS, when thenew Bank house was completed, and the Bank house given as residence, in place of the $500 reduced. lie became NOTARY PUBLIC, in the mean tune; and being CASHIER, he would have all notes, bills and obligations protested. ifs Notary Public, he would make upon him sell, as Cdshter, demand for payment ;-as Cashier, he would refuse it to Me .Notary- the drawer having no funds in Bank and as Notary Public, he would then protest it. Truly, the whole shop was in his own hands If he had been judge, jury aud hangman, it would have been parallel case. His pro- tests were numberless-and each one put, at least, p3 into his pocket; as Cashier of the Bank, he would pay the Notary his fees :; and when the debtor settled, the Cashier com pelled him to pay the Ba,,k the costs of protest. What chance was there, in such cases as this, to escape protest, and an extra bill of $3 eosts2 This smooth process, His TUB MILL, attached to tue Real Estate Baak machinery, continued to griad, in spite of all seasons, and the hardness of the times, q golden grist; and it's profts, it Is fair to pre- sume, out of an indebtedness of one million ot dollars, must have been IMMENSE to tue industrious NOTARY. leave it to others to calculate hoc much. This thing continued, until 1t was found that the Uhole proceeding was Tn uiotation of law, so far as any thing else than bills of erchange, were concerned; :; when the wheels were unswung, and this TUB MILL of the industrious NOTARY was detached

 In all this matter, and with all his means of making money from 1t, l do not charge Mir. Newton with having used his opportuai- ties corupily. But MT. Newton's friends, aldedby Mir. Newton's testimony, state broadly in their report, that they suspect Co.,. SEVER ol corruption and sacimdling. Why? Because, torsooth, his opportunities were great and they could not upon their own inspection of his transactions, ciearly proue that he had NOT swindled; and Aerefore, he had swim died, This process of reasoning would sub- Ject Mir. Newton to imputations which do not here make against him.

 Mr. Newton then became a JUSTICE OF THE PEAcE-and then TowN ALDERMAN Honors of all kinds, high and low, have been showered upon him; and he has never been known to refuse or resign, that have heard though. it seems that from Capt. Tyler he has, for once, acknowledged to the calf skins '' soft impeachment"

 Mir. Newton then became SECRETARY TO THE ASSIGNMENT, at salary of S1500, i'll gold and siluer, with the Banlesirouse rated at $500; making his salary 5000.

 Mir. Newton then became UNITED STATES MARSHAL for Arkansas, an office said to be worth at least S4000 to S5000. These two offices, and what others 1 do not know, but perhaps .Notoryship or two, he held at one and the same time; and he continued so to hold them, from the time he was appointed early in 1S4l, to about the same time 1T 1S43. Then he was removed by the Presi- dent; and he ought to hare been remored. After his removal from the office of Mar. shal, the Bank had business at the east-tht trip (the one he took with MT. Pike,) has been mentioned. He returned; and in con. sideration that he had not been permitted tc continue to hold t,co most important and lu cratipe offices ALWAYS, and had been perse cuted by Tyler! and in consideration of hi. many other distinguished Serrices, he wa | uuly clcCcu diu PIoiiotcu to tilc HE SiDENC of the Little Rock CLAY CLUB.

 And nor what is he? Always on th' rise, he is promoted to be Whig candidate for STATE SENATOR for old Pulaski. l wan but one thing more to wit, PIKE elected tc the HousE, and NEWTON to the SENATE Then will make no fuss about it any further l will surrender at discretion. ! fciH deet my property to Me Real Estate Bank, i' trust for THE INGENIOUS LAWYER AND I'll INDUSTRIOUS NOTARY. After which, will shed my old clothes, and break for Soul America. God preserve us, say l, from thi last calamity. The Real Estate Bank hold us by the nape of the neck already. Go save us from having her to make our lawS ! Citizens of Arkansas beware
