HORRIBLE ATROCITY.

FROM THE HELENA (ARK.) OUR. Aug i.
We are informed by several gen.
tlemen from Columbia, Chicot county,
that on Monday evening, after the e.
lection closed, man by the name oil
Bunch was taken and hung by the cit
liens Of that place. The cause which
led TO the irniction Of such summary
punishment, we are informed, was ow :
ing to the unlawful conduct of Bunch.
He claimed the right TO vote, which
was refused him by the judges, owing
to his being colored man. Bunch
took umbrage at this rejection, and re-
sorted to violent measures. During
the afftay, DR.. Webb, highly re-
spectacle citizen, was stabbed several
times, the wounds supposed to be NOR
,al. This so incensed the citizens, that
Bunch was taken up and hung. We
forbear to make any comments, as the
whole etfair will no doubt be fully and
fairly investigated.

public. It is true that there were many
who supposed that bankruptcy would be
the end of him; but none seem to have
anticipated the truth in it's whole extent.
He says that, for the last four months,
he has lived in constant dread of an ex-
plosiop-has felt as if he had stood be-
fare loaded cannon, with its match
slowly burning. To postpone the ex-
plosion, he has been obliged to continue
and enlarge his evil practices, until their
extent gives him painful elevation a.

Today with extracts from the address of
Mr.. JACOB BURNET, to portion of the
people of Ohio. Mr.. Burnet was long
the intimate acquaintance and friend OF
Gen. Harrison. He knew him, he knows
him, and bos done him justice. The ex-
tracts we commend to our readers, and
hope they will also, do him justice--he
has been the active patriot the soldier q
the statesman-the leader and the patron
ofthe poor in securing them homes in the
wilderness over which he presided the
chosen chief of Adams, Jefferson, and
Madison. He is now the candidate of
the honest brow sweating portion Of our
citizens, poor himself, because bonest--
the friend ofthe poor, being numbered
in their ranks; and in what can this Van
Buren, compare with Harrison The
mere New York dandy--the sycophant,
who thought it "glory enough to have
served Gen. Jackson !" In this decla-
ration we have the fullest proof of his
political poverty strickened sycophancy
his dependence upon the name of ano-
Tier and not on his own.

RESERVATIONS IN THE ARMY.

RESERVATIONS IN THE ARMY.
The Baltimore Chronicle says "A
general order from the adjutant general
announces the resignation Of five off,
GERS of the army on one day. 1t is said
that the gallant general Fenwick is also
about to throw up his commission, and
leave an army whose fame and fortunes
ere ct the mercy Of the editor of the
Globe. 1t is just what was anticipated,
and hat it was natural to expect, under
the circumstances. The unprecedented
letter Of Gen. Jessup to Oliver lie Dia-
be, Of the Globe, is enough to make a
man ashamed to be called an officer Of
. the army. lfthe example be generally
initiated, every complaint must enter by
the back.door, and all who refuse to sue
al the gates ofthe kitchen for executive
favor may be displaced. without a. mo.
ment's warning.
