The reason why the above notice is not signed by the Tteawcratie Central Committre of said county is, he caase a mass meeting was improperly railed on the Itta of Fern-nary last, nnder their signatures, bat vrith eat their consent or approbation, bat they having at tendrd said nwa Bsertlng, and having participated in what followed immediately after said merlin was le gally adjourned, (which Ut part was conducted by a few individual residing tn the Corral lis precinct, con aeqnently nnder the particular control of one J. C. Ave ry.) Therefore they utterly refuse to call a convention compos, d of precinct delegates, as required by a ran lotion unanimously pa.a, il by the Democracy of said comity in Msy 154, which has been followed' from that period down to the present time, because the last part of the mass meetina of February Uth met the approba tion of J. C. Avery, and said Central Committee dare not disobey him. or oppose his dictum. How is it with the balance of the democracy of said connty Shall we meekly how to the mandate of J. C. Avery, or will we lire freemen and Democrats, thereby being willing that the majority shoold rale and not the minority. The re sult of the present called cocvention is to decide. Dated Benton Connty.

Yet fearing that there are those who heretofore having no need of medical aid. have neglected to aacertaia the proper sou ices of relief In cases of misfortunes. To those we beg leave to direct attention to Dr. L. J. Cxapkay, who is certainly a Physician of great skill and wonderful success in his profession. The Dr. has devoted much attention to the treatment of chronic and private dis eases, and stands unrivalled in his management of them. To those who need acch sjuastance we cheerfully recommend Dr. I J. Cxspksy ; it would be well at all events to consult him. as he makes no charge ff con sultation, and much good might result from it.
