 Jerity of the Committee on the Judiciary, intrO-
 REPORT:
 It appeared 10 the satisfaction of the Committee. that JOHN 5. FIcKLIS was reported, received, and commissioned, by the Governor, captain of q con- paay of volunteers fSom Lawrence CO.,, on oT about the 18th day of June Si6. and was enrolled and mus tered into Inc service of the United States, under the command of Lieut.. Col. William Gray, July, Isi6. The Committee further 6hd, that. at this ine the company commanded by Capt. Fickin, is quar- tered al Fort Gibson, without the boundary ol the State ot Arkansas, and that said Capt. John $. Ficklin is on fuiloagh. and at this time draw ing pay from the United States.
 It IS evident to the Committee that there is mar ked difference between the volunteers raised by the act of Congress, approved the 18th of May, lS46, and the miiia of this State, prov ded for in the 10th seeioa of the 4th artcle in the constitution of the Staie.
 The act of Congress. of the 18th of May, 1916. subject them to all the rules and regulations of the army, provided for their pay, and protection, if wounded or disabled, if they were regulars in full service.
 The Committee are of opinion, that the act of Capt. kickin, Is a voluntary enlistment into the service of the United States for a specified time and, by this voGstary enlistment, he has, of his will and accord, deprived himself of many in- portant privileges of citizen for the term of en. iistment He cannot, at his own will and dsere- tion much less serve at the wIli of the people of Lawrence county, only at the will of an Gnited States officer. We hold the wih ol the sovereign people of Lawrence county, 10 be more sacred than the option of an United States officer; and are of opinion. that they should be entitled to voice in the Senate, ualrammeiie by the rigors of the Uni ted States military code. We subscribe to the doc Urine, tbat serve two masters al the same time and il Capt. FickIin be under the i'm mediate control of United States otcers, he cannot at the same time be at the viii of the people of Lawrence county, legislator. II Is clear the constitution, In defining who should be senators, paced them beyond the control of all powers save the people The Committee look upon Capt Flick lin being regularly in the service of the United States, for the term of twelve months from the lime of arriving at the place of rendezvous; and being mustered into the service he to ait ntens and pur- poses, is soldier of the United States for the time specified.
 The Committee would refer to the 26 section, of the 4th article, of the constitution of this State, ~hich disifsnehises soldiers, and recommend the passage ot the following resolution:
 Rssoieed, That the Senate consider the seat of the HOa. John s. Flekin. of Lawrence, vacant, and that ~Fiis of election be issued by his Exceiiency the Governor, to fill said vacancy.

Mir. SMITH, from the same Committee, submitted the following
REPORT

the following
 REPORT:
 Entertaining an opinion upon this question totally different from that expressed by the majority of the Comn'ttee, deem Il duly l owe to myself, to briefly declare the reasons apon which iha. opinion s founded. The question Is confessediy important in it's bearings, involving the relative rights of rep resentative and constituent and take leave 10 ex- press my regret that tte Committee have not thought proper 10 favor ihe Senate, with argument to sas- tain position that is al least novel, if not extraor dinary.
 IL Is not disputed, that John s Ficklin was reguf ary elected i0 the Senate was eonstitationay eli gible at the time, and was qualified, and took his seat as member of this body. without contest or question. It is equally clear that during the pas; summer he volunteered in the defence of bis coun- try. ad mustered into the service of the Uni ted States as the captain of volunteer militia pany, and which Is now in that service; and the precise eaestion is whether this amounts to Ior- iriiure cf his right to hold seat in this body.
 Our State constitution, to which we must refer to determine the eligibility of a member of either house, prohibits certain civil officers from being members. The prohibition, in terms, is aimed at persons holding lucrative civil offices unds the tIai ted States or tiis State but believe. and hence fe iy admit, sat officers os the regular army of the tnlie s,asess would bc ineligible although t is not So expressly declared. Militia officers, on ihe con. hsry, by the positive language of tha, instrument are eligible O seat in either house Of the legisla. nre, and Il must be obvious to every one that the true inquiry Is. whether John S. Fickin IS mili. ta ofieef-not wheshef he Is in the service of he pnited ststss. at this particular place or another, Whether the Senator. from Lawrence, ean serve two masters leave to the curious :s issss,igst.

Il Large DefaicdtiOn.

For several days past this city has been in a
state OF high excitement, in consequence of the de-
falcation and flight of Alderman Mob, a bank
director, hitherto greatly respected in the commu-
nifty. 1t seems that Mr.. Med. left several days
since, ostensbly with the design of going to the
Virginia Springs for the benefit of his health hav-
ing fixed a certain time for his sreturn. Mean
time, several of his notes became due and were
protested, and the community at length began to
suspect that all was not right. His liabilities are
varlously estimated. Some say they amount to
Sl50,00O, and others to $500 He was mar

The following gentlemen, WIS
Secretary OF State, Mr. Mason.
Secretary OF War, Mr.. Marcy.
Secretary ofthe Navy, Mr.. Burke, Of Patent Office.
Secretary ofTressury, Mr.. Walker
Postmaster General Mr.. johnson.
Attorney General, (net determined on).
Messrs. Mason, Marcy, Johnson, and Walker,
will remain. Mr.. Buchanan has been offered
the mission TO England, where, il is supposed,
and with reason, now that the Oregon question
has been settled, he would be received with
great favor
Mr.. Bancroft is, according to reputable rumor,
to take the place of Mr.. King, near the Court OF
France.
Prominent Virginians, | know, have been
pressing the claims of Andrew Stevenson, of Vir-
g,na, for seat in the Cabinet; but the President
Will not consent 10 have two from the same State.
One, Mr.. Mason, IS enough.
A gentleman from Tennessee is spoken of for
Attorney Genera but here similar objection
hes There IS already one cabinet officer from
Point, Major Mcneil from Tennessee, who is said
10 be relative OF the President; and perhaps this
may be the gentleman to whom rumor has as
signed an appointment.
It is supposed that Captain McCauley will be
appointed 10 the command of the Washington
Navy Yard.
Mr. Burke will probably be transferred TO the
Secretaryship OF the Navy, should MIR. Mason be
appointed to the State Department, Mr.. Burke
would not make a better, but as good Secretary
ais Mr.. Mason, and this is saying nothing whatever
against Mr.. Mason, but, on the contrary, much,
very much, in his favor. To be talented, as
industrious, and as conservative of the public in
terests as Mr. Burke, is be fitted for the high
est station. Mr.. Burke is about thirty five years
ofage, in the prime of life, with all the discipline
and talent necessary TO the faithful discharge of
duty. The administration might go farther, and
fare worse.
VI course, we know nothing, as yet, with GER
tainty; but you may put some confidence in the
rumor that there will shortly be change in the
cabinet-that Messrs. Buchanan and Bancroft
will leave it, and their places be filed by the Pre-
sident with due regard to the public interests.
What is to become OF Mr.. Pckens canno,
learn. He will not refuse to 60 to gland, if Mr..
Buchanan will not accept the appointment, and
prefers remaining in the State Department.
tIWhen the President returns, next week, he
will probably come to a final determination to
those who shall compose his cabinet advisers, and
who shall represent the country at the courts Of
France and Britain.
The Commissioner of Patents, understand, re-
fuses 10 give his assent that buildings for the
Smithsonian Institution shall be erected on the
square occupied by the Patent Office; for the rea
ron that tins branch of the government will soor
have use for all of it. FELIX.
