An Englishman, who has recently visit ed Richmond, writes to the New York Spirit of the Times that pers sonal observation on the subject of slavery, as it exists in Virginia, has altered many of his former opinions. He found the slaves much happier, much better cared for, and much freer from care than he expected to find them, and thinks their situa- ton will compare favorably with that of whole classes in. Europe for whom no par ticular sympathy is expressed by many modern philanthropists.

DEATH OF GEN. PROCTOR. The En- glish papers of late date record the death of General Proctor, who played so impor- tant part in the last war with Great Brit ain, and who rendered himself so odious to the American people, especially of the northwest, by his cruelty. He command ed the S2d regiment at the battle of Fort Erie, and subsequently, served along the Niagara frontier, and for a long time made Maiden his headquarters, from which, in conjunction with his savage allies, he sallied forth to perpetrate all manner of outrages upon the Americans. He died few weeks since, at his seat in Wales, suddenly, from disease of the heart. In July, 1914, he commanded the S2d before Fort Erie from Sept. 2d, and through the successive operations of the campaign, on the Niagara frontier.

-our exchanges generally, says the Washington Star, (with the exception of tho New York Courier and Enquirer, which stands by Louis Napoleon through thick and thin,) seem thoroughly disgusted with the in- comprehensible termination of the European war. The general opinion seems to be that Napoleon, with all his military successes, found himself in tight place politically hence his singular backing down in his crusade for Italian Independence.

fs1% Everything relative to European pacification is of interest, and the Trieste Gazette gives the following as the nego- tiations at Vallegio and Villafranca. - Marshall Valiant and Baron Von Hesse adjusted the armstice; but it was Prince Alexander of Hesse, brother-in-law ofthe Emperor Alexander, who made the ar- engagements for the interview for the pur- pose of considering the question of peace. After the armistice was signed, Louis Ma poleon made direct propositions in writing to Francis Joseph, and requested him 10 send person who enjoyed his confidence 10 Vallegio. The Emperor of Austria sent the Prince Alexander of Hesse, who was already acquainted with the Emperor Napoleon. In the course of the conversa- tion. Louis Napoleon expressed a desire to have an interview with Francis Joseph,
 whose personal acquaintance he was very desirous to make, as he felt assured he
 should have little difficulty in coming to an understanding with him. At first, the
 Emperor of Austria declined the proposed interview, upon the ground that Louis Ma poleon might propose such terms as would prove him to be his enemy. The French Emperor displayed great pliability gener- ally in the conversation. On the 10th, he wrote to the Prince letter setting forth the military and political reasons why the Emperor of Austria ought to make peace.
 After referring to the history of the neu- tral Powers, he declared that if his propo- sitions were refused, "he would wage a war of life and death, and would not hesi- tate to have recourse to any means which would enable him 10 obtain his ends." The result was the meeting of the Emperors, and the peace. ,

PRAIRIE COUNTY COMMON SCHOOL FuSp.--We call the especial attention of all persons who are interested in the sub ject, to the following law, which was passed during the last session of the Le- gislature of our State. We wonder how many men, having this fund in their hands, have been punctual in paying their inle. rest sem-annually, in advance By their not doing so, the Commissioner is required by law to compound the interest. Look out for squalls We understand, by this law that each and every person holding School Funds is required 10 pay the same over to the Common School Commis- sioner.

 BE PAID DIRECTLY TO THE COMMISSIONERS
 OF COMMON SCHOOLS FOR THE SEVERAL

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Arkansas, That from and after the passage of this act, all the sherfs of the several counties, and all other persons who may receive any of the moneys belonging to the school fund. shall pay the same directly to the Commissioner of the Common Schools in the several counties, and take duplicate re- ceipts therefor, instead of paying the same to the County Treasurer.
 SEC. ?. Be it further enacted, That at every session of the county court in each county in this State, upon making settlement with the sheriff, or any other officer that has, or ought to have moneys in their hands belonging to the common schools, such sheriff or officer shall be directed by the county court to pay the same to the Comm missioner of Common Schools and such court shall cause the clerk to certify the amount so found to be due to the Common School Commissioner of the county Provided, That the counties of Arkansas, Bradey, Pu- laski, Izard, Marion, Poinsett, and Fulton. be, and they are hereby exempted from the pro- visions of this act

A WARNrNG.-The Roman Catholic Bishop of Montreal has addressed circular to his clergy, calling upon them, as soon as possible, to pronounce from their pulpits " a strong warning against the opera, the theateF, the circus and other amusements of a similar nature,. which, at the present moment, are a real scandal to our city, and country dis tricts."
 THE SLAVE TRADE.-Our New England friends are immensely indignant at the very mention of opening the slave trade, while, if we are to believe the reports from that quar- ter, some half dozen vessels are now being ft- ted out in New England ports expressly in- tended as slavers. What a pity it is that some of their pious indignation could not be reserved for their own people.

From the Memphis Avalanche, isth inst
 Barbecue to Col. T. c. Hindman.

OdiD DcSu0 u OOl. 1. O, uIuuulau.
 The Democrats of Tippah County Mississippi, have united in rendering to their former fellow citizen, the Hon. T. C. Hlndman, of Arkansas, q complumenta- " barbecue. Col. Hindman has accepted this token of regard and esteem, and the barbecue comes off at Ripley on today We acknowledge the receipt of an invita- ilon, and, il business permitted, we would gladly join in this tribute 10 man who has proved himself every way worthy of such a demonstration. Col. Hindman's success in life has been brilliant. From poor and obscure boy he has left below him many rounds in the ladder of fame; but great as has been his success, this compliment, coming from his old friends and neighbors, is the most brilliant victory
 in his short but eventful craeer This demonstration is crushing rebuke to the islanders which have recently been propa. gated Tn Arkansas for the purpose of de- stroying Col. Hindman. We have taken no part in the politics of Arkansas. We know nothing of the controversy, and while we are determined not 10 take any part in the contest we will at all times and under all circumstances defend Col. Hindman's name and fame from personal calumny. He is high-hearted, chival- rous gentlem n. It is conceded by all parties that he loves the name of honor more than he fears death, and he will have no difficulty in dspelling the foul | heliish flood of islander which looms up like, the evening storm-cloud. The ene- mics of Col. Hindman have been ransack- ing the country for the noble purpose of fishing up some exploded calumny by which to destroy the object of their hate. They have peeped into his past history with the same hungry avidity that the butchers dog looks for the foul garbage that falls at his Masters block, and they have al last made the discovery that Col. Hlndman, many years ago, had some diff ficulty about half dollar, and the charge has been magniied and exaggerated inf Arkansas until he is accused of having stolen fifty cents Albert Pike was once accused of stealing canoe, and the achievement was celebrated in song. Gen. Pierce was represented as having given little boy stick of candy-but it has been reserved to the enemies of Thomas c. Hindman to make the smallest and most contemptble charge that was ever concoc- ted to destroy public man. It is no doubt painful 10 be thus assaled, but we trust Col. Hindman has the philosophy to bide his time-that he has learned the great lesson of knowing how to wait for just and unerring pubic opinion. The people of Arkansas know the value of an unstained reputation too well-they ap- preciate too highly the priceless property of a good name, to allow these careless and wicked assaults upon the private char acter of pure man to pass unrebuked.- Tom. Hindman will pass through the or deal unscathed. He may suGer-as any proud man will suffer whose name has been wantonly aspersed he will suf- fer like man valiant in battle, whose wounds, when they smart the most, are in- centives 10 new courage and earnests of future honor.
