On Friday Lhe 6th inst., we attendee
the examination of Mr. I>. P. l'erry s school,

displayed by the scholars in the various

ined. Too much cannot be said in favor of
Mr. Perry for the labor he has bestowed upon
his pupils, and the rapidity with which lie lias
brought them up the hill of, knowledge ; and
we cannot praise the students too highly tor
;thc manifestations of intellectual progress
which on the occasion of their examination
delighted their parents and friends. Several
prizes were offered'and contended for with ft
commendable degree of industry and interest.
We trust that Mr. Perry will bo liberally sup

But. honestly and sincerely abiding the issues
of the war, I now claim to be a true and loyal

I am in favor of a general amnesty, not only

and more particularly inf regard to onv own
domestic party strifes and feuds. Having no
personally political or partizau purposes to
serve or subserve, I am willing to forget the

heartily co-operate with all good men, in hon
est, faithful endeavors, to promote the growth,
happiness and prosperity, of our dear old

It bedng entirely beyond tny power to per

j 1 shall rely mainly upon the assistance of a
numerous circle of friends and acquaintances
throughout tire State to present my claims to

will give mo a generous, liberal pud. Jujarty

State of Arkansas.
I present uiyself before you as a candidate
for the office of State Treasurer, and respect
fully solicit your support. To many of you I
am known porsonally, and to many, not
unfavorably 1 trust, by reputation. Before
the war, I was Begister of the Land Office at
Fayetteville, and during the war, was elected
to the Office which I now seek. With what
ability and faithfulness I filled these respec
tive offices, it is not for me to say, but may 1
not believe that my conduct in the premises
was such as to have merited the good opinion
of those conversant therewith '!
.My father moved to Washington county
when I was but a child ; the State has been
my home ever since; all the interests I have
are identified with her s and yours. No one
deplores her present condition more than 1 do;
nor will 1 yield to any one, whether in office
or out of it, in the sincerity of my efforts to
bring about that harmony of action and kind
ness of feeling among our citizens which are
necessary to restore her to her former peace,
prosperity and happiness. One thing is cer
tain, that to put her back where she was be
foro the war, we must bury the past, and ac
cept the issues of the war as the basis of fu
ture action.'-' To this end should"all our effort* |
be directed.
In fine, fellow-citizens, if elected, I promise
you to devote to the office whatever of ability
1 May possess. What more can 1 promise?
Of course in that event, yon shall have my
thanks, but that you wefl know.
d aiu, very respect fully,
Your obedient servant,
