The Late AyrcSt.-We promised
in our last. to give some of the par
ticulars in relation 10 the arrest Of a
citizen of Green Plains. Mr.. John C..
Elliott. by the Mormons. on a charge
OF kidnapping. We have been fvor-
ed by a gentleman with tie following
facts:
About day-break y5the 18th uIrlmo,
- armed mea entered the premises
of MIR. freeman, OF Green Plains. and
took Mr.. Il. prisoner. on 4 charge Of
kidnapping. Mr.. T.. not knowing
but tie dante band was upon him,
was about to resist to the extent OF
his power, til having a wit read to
HIM lie dcslSted, and asked to go be-
fore the nearest magistrate 1T War
saw. THIS was refused and he was
taken to Nauvoo.
Arriving at Nauvoo he was taken
before Justice Johnson. the same who
had issued the warrant, TO undergo
an examination. Two notable coun-
seIlors-Marr and SsyIss-aud the
great Prophet himself, appeared as
prosecutors, and-0f co"rSe--Mr. FL,
lott was orderedto enter INTO recog-
uIzance 10 appear al the nexl term Oi
the circuit court, under bond of S.
600.
During the examination. a witness
testified that tine prisoner had lie
audacity to use certain threatening
words towards the Prophet; where
upon, Joe sued out a wit before Jus
tee Foster, ana had him again arrest
ed.
During the latter trial, and while
Joe was IN the midst Of a long stere-
otyped speech, an express arrived
with the news that the Mlssourians
were crossing by hundreds-that
Warsaw and Green Plains we're in
arms-and more Of the same sort and
equally as true. This was enough.
Joe turned his tune very considerably
thought the prisoner and his trends
were rather clever fellows, after all
hoped he had not offended them-if
so, he begged their pardon-if they
would come to his house, they should
be well taken care of-(whrch, by
the by, they did, and paid for it, too.)
But Joe cut short his speech, AND, in
evident alarm, ordered the %by-stand-
ers to dispense and arm themselves,
called out the legion, and ordered
the passes to be strongly defended
And what was the cause of all this
cemmotion? Some dozen Of the cit
liens Of Green Plains, excited by the
circumstances of the arrest, had arm
ed themselves and followed on as far
as Warsaw. Verify the wicked flee
when no man %pursueth.'

at the same time saying to the Dis

ed weak. Far from being revolving

slated, should think she had once

are a dull blue, almost without lashes,
and having a hard, cunning. cruel,
and withal rssolute expression. Her
nose is long and sharp, her lips rather

DANGER OF HOLDING A JUDICIAL
OFFICE IN ARKANSAS.

Ii is somewhat dangerous for man to be
Judge in Arkansas, if the statement of Judge
Field be believed In charge TO the Grand
Jury he lately held the following language:
sin some parts of Arkansas it is really dan
gerous for ajudge to protect his station from
insult, or assert his authority. If what he
does or says is not exactly agreeable to the
taste ofsome he is in danger of humiliation.
One or two prosecuting attorneys in the
northern part of the State, have been way
laid and murdered for doing their dAy'--
In another part judge was barred out 0.
the court house by the popalace, and his
lite put in danger merely because he wished
to hold court as the law directed. Another
Judge was near being attacked whilst on his
bench for exercising his authority in keeping
silence in the court house during business
hours Another was forced by an armed ruff
fan to leave the bench and drink with him,
and this whilst his court was in session.

Synopsis Of The speech Of J. ~ Kikindal!,
delirered at a meeting Of the citizens Of
Warrick County, Adore referred to.
In 1896, il was the glory of Indiana to have
adopted, magnificent system of Internal
improvement Although Pennsylvania and
New York had already, in their mighty
strength, accomplished much, in their vast
and extended lines of Internal Improvement,
il was left for Indiana to become beacon
star TO her sister States in their systems of
like improvement. Hailed as the ssYoung
Lyon of the Wesi,'' at one fell bound she
outstrode her more cautious elder sisters,
and spread out upon her fertile bosom vari-
Gus and extended lines of Turnpkes, Cyz1aIs
and Rail Roads-s-relyng upon her credit
abroad, Imported by the liberal enterprise
of her hardy sons, TO complete 50 common
dable an enterprise.
That reliance has failed-not that il vas
mIud;cous-not from any derelection on the
part of Indiana, bat from the fact that Eu-
rope, being at that time flooded with sur
I OF capital, was anxious 10 invest il in
An - stocks, ii being considered
rare ca-ance 70 be SO fortunate, as to invest
money in such securities. But unfortunate
ly, the European nsssket became Hooded
land as natural consequences their value
became so deprecated, that they could not
be disposed of but at ruinous rates-Indi-
ana'se means failed before her public I'm
pfovements were in a condition to be ofany
benefit 10 her In consequence wllereofshe
State has been compelled to tax her citizens
10 that point beyond which it would be dan
gerous 10 go.
We VIII not now STOP TO consider the poll
cy of commencing so dilfuse a system with
out the certain means of completing fhe
same. Suffice it 10 say, as it has turned
out, the system was extremely inludicions
Neither is it necessary for our purpose up
on this occasion 10 inquire, whai party origin
ated and supportedt these measures, OF wheth-
er il was the offspring and boast of all par
lies.
We nor find our State deeply, and as ii
seems, DreitievabIy involved in debts and
difficulties, that years will scarcely rid her of
Such being the case, it becomes US as good
Icitzens moi 10 ask or wish, that the State
should abandon her public works-not TO
talk of or wish, that our heretofore glorious
State ''the young lyon of the West''-should
do one repudiating act, and thus involve
herself as deeply and more inetrievably in
justly merited disgrace, than she now is in
honorable, if unfortunate difficulties. But
on the contrary we should endeavor, by all
honorable means, 10 sustain the credit of our
State, and honor the confidence placed in us
as the hardy sons ofthe Hoosier State. We
should devise and carry out some means,
upon which all parties can now unite for the
completion of some one OF more of these
lines of our Public works, thereby saving
TO the State the large sums already expend-
ed, and making each line, as completed, be-
come source of revenue TO the State, and
a means Of wealth to hercitizens.
For this object we should first ascertain
which of these works is the most likely TO
subserve this two-fold purpose, at the least
