TRYINa TO SEDucE ARKANsA&-Je6 Davis has
made vigorous effort to seduce Arkansas into join
ing the ranks of the Confederators. He recently
addressed afectonate epistle to the President Of
the Arkansas State Convention entreating him to
persuade the delegates in that body to unite their
fortunes with those of the Southern Confederacy.
The following is passage from this letter: -
Feeling that we, have common interests COM
mon wrongs and common dangers, we cordially in,
yi:e you to unite with us and adopt tho only mode
Of redress which, in our Judgment, will secure our
future tranquility and safety separation from the
United States" 4s..ss. Il, -l.,5r1'. .ts-7f !.
The Convention, however, refused to listen to the
voice of the charmer. 1t postponed the considers
tion of the question Of secession till the last day of
the session, and then voted 10 refer it to the peoples
The day fixed for the vote is the Sd Of August and
the proposition to be submitted to the people is as
follows: =. 's.. 4.s., --;-s.,.7 sf,-., ,-,.s.e
IF 9 majority Of all the votes cast shall be for

zens The health of the institution has been re-
markably good for the last six months. Steps were
taken for the erection Of brick wall the west
ern side Of the buildings, as provided. for by the
acts Of Assembly Of 1s5s-59, go and 81. = s
1t is due to the institution to state that q very
erroneous impression prevails in the minds of many
respecting the annual charge to the State of the
Asylum. For the more certain means Of its sup
port an annual appropriation is made by the Legis
lature Of twenty-five thousand dollars, but more
than two-thirds Of that sum is paid back into the
State treasury by the respective counties which are
taxed for the support Of the respective INDECENT in
sent to the Asylum, the earnings to the State
from this source for the last year being SIS 500,
leaving the sum Of $s 200 as that really contributed
by the State at large. -. =, e..
