FREE NTGsORs.-We take the following extract
from the Helena (Arkansss) Democrat: " The free
negroes CT Arkansas, who are required BY law to
leave the State before 1861 seems generally to have
selected Kansas as their future home, and contem-
plate removing there-at an early day." The Demo
Graf thinks it would be much wiser in selecting future
homes, to adopt the course of the free blacks of
Louisiana, and emigrate to Hayt the Paradise for

We understln dthat an express arrived in our
city yesterday from Capt. Plummsr, Camp Cooper,
informing the Department that large number OF
persons citizens Of the frontier had assembled near
the Indian Reserve, declaring that the Indians
should not be removed.
This movement on the part Of the frontier citi-
ID in direct opposition to what they expressed
as their wishes a month two since. We learn that
the commanding General has issued an order oom-
handing several companies to go to the Reserves,
for the purpose of increasing the escort for thu
moVsl of the Indians beyond the borders Of Texae.

CovIngten and Newport Election Returns

The Kentucky geaersl election took place yester-
day, And We infer from reported returns thai the
Democracy have cleared the plstter They GER
Iaiuly did so in Keuton aud Campbell counties.
Tbe Democratic m0jorities in Kenton county will
range frcln $50 to sou, and in Campbell will average
perhaos 800 Il is estimated that Steyenson's ma
iority fer Congress in each county will exceed coo,
being large gain over his majoriues two years
axo. In CoVington there was considerable excite
msnt with few hstie1ffs at the polls, until eleven
o'clock, when the Opposition lie. down" and made
no further effort. In Newport there was strORg
effort against Hedge, and psrtisans, overhea:ed by

Tn. Election in Na.hr,Ils.

The election in this city, as usual, passed of
quietly, and both parties retained their gOOd-nature
during the day. The vote is very largely increased
and the Opposition make small gain over the last
election for Governor far less than in proportion to
the increased VOTE but sustained loss on the votes
Of 1856 and 1856. They rode the Bank hobby this
year, and promised to "prOteci naturalzsd citizens
abroad"

We propose, in day or tvs, a reprint CT the
KnoE-NOthing dispatches from the Kentucky cleo
ton, and comparison of them with ours. We had
thought that the experiment. the credulty Of the
public in the dispatches from Virginia last spring
would have put the community on their guard. But
the Kentucky dispatches Of this year cap the
climax, as we will shew.

We are proud of the confidence placed in our
election returns when they conflict with those of the
Opposition. The shreWd betting men Of the OpPo-
sitOn will bet on the correctness Of dispatches
But some not quite SO shreWd have been freely bled
this year BY backing the dispatches published by
the Opposition papers here.
