AN ARKANSAS PLANTERS OPINION
OK THE NIGGER QUEsrloN.-A plan
ter who came to Little Rock, Ark, to
Get arms for Union home guards on
White river, gave his ideas of the great
question of the day as folows:-
"The nigger business is done uP' and
there's no use talking about it. 1t don't
make no odds how good Union man
one may be, he'll lose his niggers, Ever
since the war commenced Old Abe has
been turning the screws down on US
frst a little turn, and then another; we
don't scursly feel it, but he keeps turn
ing of his screws, and now it's got 10 oe
dooon tight. Over thar in Missouri, the
Union men thought they was going tC
come out all right, but the screws have
come down on 'em so snug they had to dc
senething-and they done it but 'twan
no use; down come the screw again, an'
YOU see where they are. That keeping
in Schofeld was for nothing but to TAX
another turn on the screw. Now, there
old Kanetuck she feels as if she was o.
the top of the heap, and she's been
, bragoin' what she's done but you wa
a spell, and you'll see the biggest kind {
screw turn down on her, and it sh
don't walk the chalk, she'll have her II
: sides squeezed out. There's no use
e talking; the things all fixed; and
h wouldn't give a dime for the best nisg'
you can find"

Correspondence OF the Chronicle.l
HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THB POTOMAC,
suy os Of
I con victed OF rape, took place this morning at
O'Clock efore 200 spe ctators, consisting chiefly
OF teamsters, ambulance drivers, hospital at
teneaDts and other non -combatants, Gen Pat
/ rick having selected locality where this class
of persons congregate, SO that the scene might
have wholesome effect upon those who are
more or less outside the limits Of military con-
/ troll. Previous to the execution, both prisoners
became penitent and requested the chaplain
who was present to say few words of eau
tion to the spectators in their behalf, beseech-
ing them to take warning from the scene they
were about to witness, and to mark out for
themselves q line OF conduct W hich should
steer clear OF the misery which they had
brought upon themselves and entailed upon
their families. 'sf.fa
AT a given signal the bolt was drawn, and
the two unfortunate men were almost instan-
taneously 1aun ched into eternity.
While they were still suspended, Gen. Pa.
trict, Provost Marshal General called all those
present to "attenton,'' and In q few eloqu quent
and telling words described to the assemblage
the difficulty which had been experience In
the detection Of the men who had Just paid the
penalty Of the law. He said that "the finger
OF God was in this matter, and that but for
His interference this outrage against the laws
OF society, OF man, and of Heaven, would have
passed by unavenged." He stated that 1t was
the intention of Gems. Grant and Meade and
OF every good and true man in the army, that
this violation of the sacred rights Of home
should be stopped. He called attention to the
existing raid in the North, and asked those
present who had a mother, or sister, or
wife, or even friend, to picture to themselves
their misery, if the ravages Of war had in vaded
the sanctuary Of their dear homes.
This Is the fourth execution for this terrible
offence. 1t is to be hoped 1t may be the last,
but OF one thing you may rest assured, no
mercy Will be shown to offenders Of this char
acter.
After hanging for half an hour the bodies
were cut down and turned over to the respec.
tive relations.
