Arkansas true Democrat., 1859-06-15

of two years for which representatives to Congress ought, under the constitution, to be chosen. This bill also provides that the next election of representatives shall be held hhree yeors and tsco n,onths otier Me last ,lection of our representatives to Congress, whilst the constitution of the United States, in article one, section two, provides that, ..The House of Representatives shall be composed of members chosen eyery second vear;" and to place it beyond the constitu- tional power of State legislature to de- privc the people of a State, of their repre- sentation, the constitution of the United States in article one, section two, also pro- vides, that, " When vacancies happen in the representation of any State, the execu- tive authority thereof shall issue writs of election to fill such vacancies" Our law as it stands does not violate either of these provisions ot the constitution of the United States; but was so enacted as to accord with them; and instead of being framed in such a manner as to deprive the people of the State of Arkansas of all representation for any stated time, was made expressly to guarantee to them, as far as possible, at aU Hines, their full compliment of representa- tives. For, notwithstanding the constitu- ton provides, as above quoted, that, when vacancies happen in the representation of any State, the executive authority thereof shdtI sssne writs Qf election 70 fU such racan c'es, to make this important obligation upon the governor of Arkansas. if possible, stH more imperotive our law, in chapter G2, section S2, of Gould's Digest, provides, that, :" When any vacancy shall happen in the office of member of Congress from this State, by deoth, resignation, ren,orol or othercise t shoH be tie duty of hhe gooernor, by proclamation, to order the sherifs of he seoer0l counties 10 order 0n election tO Je hetd, on c ceytain doy to Je nan'ed in such procla motion to supply such paconcy; and such election shall be conducted in the same manner and returns thereof made as herein prescribed for general elections"
 l can neither approve nor sign the bill which l return, for it is, to my mind, clear ly in violation of the constitution of the United States. and in violation of rights guaranteed by that constitution to the peo pie of the State of Arkansas

ATkanSas River NeWs

There are about four feet water in the channel and falling slowly. There is a re- port of rise in the upper streams which may not be realized. There is plenty wa ter for the class of boats engaged in the trade, as the bars "cut out'' by the reced- ing of the river
 The steamer Grape Shot, from Cincin- nati, bound for Fort Smith, was sunk last week between this point and the latter place. We are not advised whether the boat will be total loss or not. The freight is somewhat damaged.
 The weather is cloudy, promising rain, of which the crops stand much in need
 The Mississippi river is falling fast, but we fear 1t is too late to make any crop upon the overfowed land on that river.- Two successive overhows are discouraging to planters, and will doubtless cause many to turn their attention to higher localities

The Execution of Cosgrove.

On Friday, the 10th inst, at a few min utes after F o'clock, Charles Cosgrove suf fered death by hanging, for the murder of young Lester, of which crime he had been found guilty at late term of the Pulaski circuit court. Several thousand persons were present, and though his confession of the committnl of the crime was not made public until after the execution, there was not a soul present who doubted his guilt He confessed to the sheriff and iailer while in jail, and shortly afterward, while on his way to the gallows, to the persons in the murder for which he was about to die and that he had no accomplice. As to other confessions that he had been guilty of a se- res ot crimes in past years, we have failed to trace them to any reliable source. He appeared penitent and wept from the time he was taken from the jail to the place of execution. He was attended on the scaf- fold by Roman Catholic clergyman who gave him the last office of the church. Rev. D. L.G. Mckenzie of the Methodist church was also present. The convict was said to be mach prostrated but did not appear to be unable to walk and promptly obeyed the directions of the sheriff as to where he should stand on the platform.
 We give here likeness of Cosgrove which will be readily recognised by all persons who have seen the guilty unfortunate. Mir. Washbrn, the artist, drew the portrait of Cosgrove in the court room and the cut was executed by w. N. Tate, surgeon dentist, of this ely
Arkansas true Democrat., 1859-06-15

Hindman's organ, the new paper to be started here, we are authoritatively informed in the State Rights Democrat, is to be called, termed and known as "The Old Line Dem- ocrat." Various were the conjectures as to the name to be given. It being f1iius nullus, with only putative father, it was proposed to call it ''Hindman's Own .''- Another suggested the more truthful name of "The Caribow." Some, who seem to think this society of the old liners are old members of a certain order proposed to call it The Lone Star" All speculation is ended now, as its godfather has decided it shall be the '' Old Line Democrat.
