The Marytaad Disasler.--lf the generals of the American army in the war of the rev oluton had turned their arms against each other, we should hardly have come of yieto- rious ill that contest. While their soldiers were shooting each other down, the enemy would have nothing 10 do but To lake their towns. So il is in our political contest.
 The intelligence from the Maryland elec- tions just received is bad enough. It is not however to be regretted, fl 1t has the effect of awakening the different portions of the democratic party, whe are wrangling about their candidates for the presidency, to a sense of their common danger and the common in terests, and fl 1t itadmonishes them of the folly Of allowing themselves 10 engage too waim- lv in mere personal factions.

LITTLE ROCK:
SATURDAY WORKING, OCTOBER as, 1sas.

The Rerier.-Early on Thursday morn- inc, were our ears saluted with the lively notes of martial music, parading along the streets. The Arkansas militia turned out by hundreds, well armed and orderly. About II o'clock, the companies formed a line along Markham street. for regimental review, when Brig Gen. Byrd proceeded to the review.
 The morning had been stormy at intervals, and about this time 1t would seem that the elements had some cause of malice against the militia system, which they intended to wash out; the rain poured down i'll torrents ; then the sleet began to fall equally copious; now the sleet is converted into large hail ]; not man left the ranks, although the cold was most bitter--and yet another change III the storm came whirlmg along, Ill eddies oi wind, large flakes of snow, such as fall some times upon the Laurel Ridge oi the Allegha- nies, when they say that the 'sold woman Is picking her geese.n This state of the at ? mosphere con ilued until the review was oyer
 The Arkansas militia can never he called fur ,reather soldiers after this, nor can their intrepidity and courage ever be questioned, if they stand fire as well as water Every one stood his ground. There was no murmuring, no disorder; they certainly deserve credit for their soldier-like behaviour.
 The Little Rock Guards were reviewed in their uniform their number was small, owing to the absence of many members, amongst whom was Capt. A. Pike. The Guards are a neat little squad, and arc well disciplined.
 We are bound to attribute much praise To General Byrd, for this so great change in the militia of Arkansas. Heretofore, to be called to do militia duty, was matter of no importance, unless 1t afforded the more law less to assemble at a grocery, and have fight or two. But on Thursday there was no fighting, no brawlng, no disorder.
 The General and his staff were all well caparisoned, throughout, ill the best modern mode, and their appearance was really martial.
