the list and gave evidence if any had been wanting l that-"Measures and not Men, ',--being our metto We sustain it with voice, and by acts. There never has been occasion, when the spirit of true Democracy was more fully made manifest, and more truly acted out than on this. The action ofthe Con- vendon was a straight forward demonstration of Democratic union, harmony, and strength. The names of the officers of the Convention and of the Committee, are sufficient guaranty to the party throughout the State, that cause here is in the hands of the right sort of men--tried Democrats true and trustv The Resolutions embody the doc rines of Democracy, and speak the voice of the peo pie. The reading of every separate resolution, was responded to by rounds of applause; and upon the question of the adoption of them all together, il was carried by loud, long shout of acclama- ton. So far we know. or can ascertain only one voice was raised against the resolutions; and that one was Cyrus W. TVeler's. This, of course, was expected, if he should have the unbushng eirontery to be present; inasnuch the last Resolution de- nounced him as no democrat, and held him up to the whole State, in his true light, ga Hhg in dis guise's'as a craft under false colors.''

 When the question, on the adoption of the resou- tions, was proposed Heller claimed the right to speak in opposition to them, This was denied him and the resolutions passed by exclamation, and imousy, with the exception of IReller's dissent- Amid the resoundng acclamations of the assembly, the croaLng discord of Weller's voice was heard pouring forth torrents of the most vulgar and profane oaths of denunciation, against all who voted for the resolutions. To this no one paid any attention; all regarding him with contempt. But above all other sounds were heard the loud and stirring voices of those true men, and sterling Democrats, ALLEN 1 MARTIN, and JARED c. MARTIN, sustaining the resolutions. deaopncing traitors, and in the of Democracy, bidding defiance to all oppositon.- These voices met with ready response; and were echoed back in shouts of thrilling enthusiasm.

 That there were few present who were willing that Weller might be allowed to speak, before the resolutions were passed, we are not even disposed to deny. We. oursef would have voted for hearing him; but not on the ground that he had any right te speak, be present, in that Convention. What rights-what business had he there He had op- posed the holding of the Conyenton--he had de- nouneed and threatened it with opposition, in ad- vance-he had not come forward and participated in its proceedings, and would not have been allowed, even if he had proposed to do so. Ii is we'll known that he is not Democrat but taitor. ia tte en- ploymem and pug of ae TKlags The Convention did not regard him as d Democrat; and had made it

 part of their special business to express the opinion that he IS not Democrat. to denounce him ''a IRag a disguise, and to hold him up to the execra-

 on of all honest men, ''as cra under false coios. Now we ask of all candid men, of all parties, what right had such creature this in any assemblage of decent men-more especially of Democrats, against whom he had been waging pratcal warfare, and who had now met to expose and denounce him We contend and justly too, that he had no right even to be there; most assuredly no right to speak.

 To those Democrats who think he ought to have been heard before the resolution con- demning him was passed, we would say-he has been heard fully and freely, for several months past through the columns of his paper. Through the vest sheet that has ever disgraced the press in any country. he has. for months been ex- erting himself to the utmost to divide, distract, weaken and prostrate the party to which he proesses to belong. He has done all he could to accomplish his nefarious purposes and has failed only for want of power. Like toothless viper, he is impotent, only because, with the most venomous disposition, he has not the ability to do harm. He had been heard already too long; and the Democratic party of this county where his character and all the springs of his operations, are known resolved that they would not silently, bear his attacks any longer.- i They resolved to expose and denounce him; and they have done so. All candid men must admit they have done righteous deed.

 To those interruptions Wings who have employed and paid Weller to carry on his piratical warfare to do work so dirty that even they are ashamed to

 

 pathize with him. and so loudly cry out that "poor Weller is an ill-used man, condemned without a hearing, &c;'-to those we have only to say that they and Weller are well known and well under stood by the Democrats. Whig sympathy is very appropriately expended upon the wretched instru- Inents which Wings have employed against Democ- racy, and which Democracy has detected, broken into fragments, and cast off with seorn. No wonder the Wings of Little Rock sympathize with Weller; for in doing so, they but sympathize with their disappointed hopes, and empty pockets They have ] now discovered that Weller can do them no service, and that the money they have invested in the Tmes and Advocate, as political capital, sso much thrown away No wonder, then they feel hurt at the treat ment Weller has received at the hands of Demoe racy and complain of his defeat as of their own It is, indeed, defeat of Whiggery in Arlansas-the destruction of their last hope, In an open manly cnntest of Wing against Democrat, they well knew they had no chaace of success, in this State They then resolved to resort to treacke,y They sought traitor and they found one They employed and paid him. For moment, their hearts were elated with the prospect of success. But only for mo- ment. Their trick too shallow to deceive it was discovered at glance; and is now exposed to the contempt and disgust of all honest men-impo- tent alike, of good to the Wings, aud of evil to the Democrats.
