NEWTON, the Whig candidate for Senator in Pulaski county, is, and has been for a number of years. member of the Presbyterian ehurch--a regular attendant on divine serYce-a regular communicant at the table of the Lords sup per-a deacon ia Ae c4tgc3-we do not know wheth- CT he exhorts and prays in public, but wears a longer or a more pious face, or puts on more sanetimonous demeaaor on Sundays. Such is 1aomas IF. Ne'etoa bysPsgsssioa-wbo, PhaFisee-

 Ike, goes about thanking his God that he is not like other people, and is unable 10 look upon sin, in others, with the least degree of allowance! And yet this same pious, sin hating DEACON NEWTON was, on Saturday last, n this city, BEASFLY DRUNK! rantiug and roaring in and about the drinking houses-and on one occasion mounted on a billiard tablepfQftaeiy clasng and sareaiiag seek ingto quarrel and fight, with peaceabIe citizens who had said nothing to him Let Deacon Newton deny this if he dare and we will prove ton him. Indeed he cannot deny it-it is notorious to the whole city it is a subject otcontemptuous remark by many and a source of modification to his friends. And, yet this is the man who cries out persecution, when the propriey of lis conduct is called in question; and who puts forth stle purity of hls lge' as reason why the people should vote for him

 Moral and religious people Of Pulaski county is this .the purity efHe" you admire, and wish to see, in those who are to represent yoa in the State Sen ate2 Ifso, then vote for Deacon Neeetoa,

 Cor. FowLER-This candidate for the legislature has been the most prominent speaker of the whig party during the present canvass in this county. He has spoken on the stump in almost every township in the county, and several occasions has address, ed the citizens of Little Rock. It is now a matter of public notoriety that he makes the same speech oa every occasion, This speech is the old les son that he learned by heart and reeed at the whig convention held in this city at the arsenal ground in IsIo, He then made il his study to hunt up and learn the private history of every defaulter that discovered from the commencement of General Jachson's administration up to that time. This he repeats at every opportunity, and he is in- comigibe on this matter that his friends are heard to remark while he is speaking that they wish he would learn some other speeeh that fl he is can didate again and does not learn something else 10 talk about, they will not vote for him. Any one who heard his speech at the City Hall recently, and his speech under the ash pole on Saturday last must be convinced ofthe truth ofhese remarks. Even the stars and stripes waving over his head do not move hih to change his tune We have no objection to his repeating this speech during the present canvass but we insist with his friends, thatf he is ever again candidate he must learn something else.

 PARTY DferArIoN.-,The whig orators and the Gazette ealing upon their partsans, with tone of authority, to vote for the candidates that tey point out to them. aIetno private friendships, and nopersonal considerations, deter you from voting the whole whis tcket,' is their language Do they suppose they can lead the people by the nose and compel them to vote for whom they pleasel Ifthey can we are mistaken in the spirit ot theeitzens oi old Pulaski While this is the language used, every attemptis making osplit the democratic ticket, and wiring in democratic vote now and then Tor whig. This will not do. Let them say at once they do aoi seaa ay democratic roles. and depend on their own boastea strength.
