DrED--In the Town of Little Rock, at the house of Mr. F. Wilson, on the ninth day of July, after short but severe attack of bilious fever, MT. Daniel Kendrick, q native of Pennsylvania, who came among US in the spring of 1ss9, and from the even tenor of his way gained full share of es- teem and respect. As it is at all times too common for the character of our departed friends to be accused of being eulogised, I will ferhear saying any thing more of this inestimable man; than that the yacu. um that has been made ny his death, will not soon be filled as he fully came up to what Pope terms the noblest work of God. s ( X las. he's gone w know not where,

LITTLE RTEL.Y--AGAfN.

In the Gazette of the 7th inst. the Ed itor of that print has again made a lawless and wanton attack upon the Editor of this vaper. This I his vile and malicious attack should have passed by unnotieed, like the . idle wind which we regard not ,''' were it not that his abuse of us, might have per- nicious effect, where his character for TRUTH and veracity are unltnoDn.
 His character for truth, and his long as- sociation with every thing that is deroga- tory and degrading to the character of man, are so properly understood at home, ? that 1t would be considered here, worse than madness in any honest and respeeta- ble man, to attempt to hurl from him any slanderous aspersions which might ema- nate from such a polluted source.
 He speaks with seeming regret Of q repetition of the disgraceful and bloody scenes of violence which unhappily dis tracted our country two or three years ago." We do not, for moment, doubt his sincerity-if from no other cause, per- sonat fear would prompt him to deprecate theirr repetition. To the Editor ofthe Ga- zette, the very mention of the scenes of 1927, ito which we presume he ailud es l were he not a man callous to all feeling. should begrating to his ear. Let him look back, and with calm reflection take a re- irrespective view of the part he acted in those. scenes, and he will find himself in the degrading attitude of fawning syco- Phaat, ready at moments notice to do any or ccea'y thing, however dishoaorabte he might be commended to perform--he will find himself pusillanimously crouching under the frowns of those upon whom he had dared to breathe his foul and slander- ous hreath--and fast, though not least, we would ask if his hands are not stained with human blood
 This is but brief summary of the part this man acted in those scenes-scenes had 1t not been for his own fevered and dlstempered brain, might never have been acted. We intend, however, in our pro- missed Liale Book, to give more minute history of him in those by y-gone times. % We would say to the Editor of the Ga zette, beware. beware.! lest certain DEPOSITION, which has for the last two or three years been nnrsed in the dark, should be dragged into light, and receive its mer- tied animadversions.
 Upon reflection, we can hardly censure the Editor of the Gazette, for his invective toward us, knowing, as we do, the situa- hon In which he is placed-he is not the chief actor in the scene-like unto the scenes of '27, are those of the present day --he has a Promptor, and when command cd, he nsast obey.
 Should the Editor of the Gazette take exceptions to any thing we have said, we must find our justification in the wanton and malicious manner in which we. have been assailed. We ever have, so far as we could do so, consistently with our feeiines ana notions of an independent man, en- desyescd to pursue course IS little iisti cal.

As recent custom has rendered it proper to publish extracts from private letters re. ceived from Kentucky, it will not, we hope, be deemed criminal mus, to give the following extract of a letter, to the Editor, from much valued and highly respected friend in Kentucky, dated June IT:
 Gov. PopE, l am informed, left Louis vile a few days ago for Arkansas. It is said, that the day before leaving there. he dined with several of the Jackson hi em- bers of Congress, (who where on their way home, at Aliens Hotel, and that after a free circulation of the wine, among them, certain expressions fell from the ss 0verseer of the distant plantation, (rather unex- pectedly to fhe company in regard to the present Administration of the General Go yernment, which, it is thought, will proba- ply cause the ( reforming hand of the President, to be extended again to Arkan- sas.
 It is believed by the ss knowing ones'' in Kentucky, that His Excellency is pre- pairing for another of his singular changes in politics, and that he would tsis lime. have no objection to plausible reason for his teap. He would, probably, rather be a Senator from Kentucky in the Congress of the United States, than the Ocerseer of so large Cotton plantation as Arkansas"

Little Rock, Julg I4th, 1880,


 MR. BERTRAND:
 Sw-Permit me through the medium of your paper. to say to the public. that had no agency whatever in the preparation of the Yegata'' toasts, or of any other toasts, given on the 5th July, at public dinner at the house of Dr. Cooke, in which the off, cial character of Gov. PopE, was directly or indirectly at issue.
 ] had thought if my duty to an individual for whom aayseg entertained the kindesi feelings, to make this snccinct statement. will add, it was not without surprise, that saw myself announced as the Presiding Officer of that dinner. I attribute this honorary annunciatiop, to the partiality of my friend. I certainly did not so consid- CT myself. read some of the toasts, 1t is true, at the request of the gentleman whom considered the President, owing entirely to tie accidental circumstance of his tenn porary absence from the table.
 Yours, d1c. 4. H. SEWER.

We have been requested to correct a statement, made in our last, which it ap- pears was erroneous, in relation to the trial of CLAIBORNE HILL, indicted at the late June term of the Circuit Court, for Jefferson county, for the crime of Rape. He was not, as we stated, acquitted by a jury, nor was he tried--but upon failure of evidence, the Prosecuting Attorney, with leave of the Court, released him by a aollepr0sequi. The Court, fully convinced of his moral depravity, gave him a suita- ble reprimand upon his discharge.
