Ready and willing.
--The Prairie (Ark.) Democrat gives the following good account of the ‘ "bowie-knife boys."’‘ We will venture to say that there is not one male white person in a thousand in the State of Arkansas, over the age of sixteen, who does not know how to shoot a gun; and we don't know but what 999 out of every thousand in the State are ready and willing, nay, even anxious, to come in conflict with old Abe's abolition forces; and where skill and patriotism are butted against hirelings and knaves, we can guess which side will gain the victory.
