RECONSTRUCTED ARKANsAs-A correspondent
at Little Rock, writing to the New York Eusning
Post of the condition and prospects Of the civil
government recently inaugurated in Arkansas,
says;
The civil government of this state is now pref
ty well organized, but completely useless. 1t can
exercise its power only where military posts are
actually established, and there the military author
ity is Of necessity supreme. 1t can collect no
taxes, for the few Union citizens residing within
our lines are impoverished by the war. 10 levy
taxes on their little property would be poor re-
turn for their athfulness. all the available rebel
property is possessed and used by the military
authorities. The State cannot pay salaries to its
officers. The very stationary used by the egisla.
ture ia its recent session was furnished by the
United States, aud the members thereof were in
some instances not unwilling to obtain supplies
from Uncle Sans commissariat. No civil courts
of any kind are held, either State or United States
courts.
All offences are tried by courts martial or mil
italy commissioners. AT this place, however, a
city government maintains itselfwlh considerable
respectfully but the general administration Of
civil affairs IN the department rests more with the
Provost Marshal General than with all the COM
bined Authority of the officers Of Arkansas,
Such accounts as this show how futile are all
efforts to establish any civil authority in the in
surrection,y districts until the rebellion has been
thoroughly suppressed. But as long as there are
persons in these States who are anxious to become
Senators and Representatives in Congress, efforts
will not cease probably to establish the form oil
a State organization which has no power or vital
ty, in fact no existence except in name. There
appears now to be 10 disposition on the part Of the
Senate al Washington to admit the two gentlemen
claiming seats from Arkansas, and probably, with.
out any definite action upon their application, they
will be suffered 10 remain outside the Senate.
The Baltimore Convention admitted delegates
from Louisiana, tennessee, Arkansas, and al
most everywhere except from South Carolina
Robert Small, the colored captor OF the Steamer
Planter Was que OF the delegates from South
Carolina, ami there wero other oolored persona
in the delegation, and possibly this embarrassing
question OF color. Influenced the Convention &
roget the South Carolina delegation.

BY MARY AsHE

They had nerved themselves for the ter.
rible crisis, but now John LUOE3ale and his
wife sat down in the small apartments they
had hired, and sought refuge in the long
suppressed tears.
Their story was a common one. lie haA
been early clerk in large concern in New
York, and by his ability, integrity and bus
mess talent had won his way upward, so
that at twenty-three he had been taken into
the concern as partner. He had then
crowned his happiness by leading to the
modest little house which he had hired and
furnished the gentle girl who now sat bro
ken hearted beside him.
Among the friends who had gathered
around him was Henry Ulshoeffer, man of
talent, full of plans and projects, always in
speculations, and never in conversation de-
ferriDg the moment of his success more than
a week, although no one ever knew pro-
ject of his of any moment to succeed f,
He was dangerous, for he was plausible
and really so kind hearted and well-mean-
ing Lockdale often laughed at his schemes,
but in his indignation at the immense gas
bills which the company contrived to make
him pay, and the unblushing impudence
with which they extorted an average bill
from him for a month when he burnt no gas
at all, averring that the meter was out of or
der, he listened favorably to speculation of
Ulshoefers, for making gas at home at one
half the company's rates. The thing was
certain of success. 1t was worked on a
small scale, and the result left no doubt on
the mind of either. Ulshoeffer needed some
machinery and apparatus. The house in
Reade street would furnish it on his note,
but their rule was an endorser, and for the
form of it Lockdale endorsed to the extent
of four thousand dollars. .a.
He had not consulted Lucy as to this. 1t
was nothing. Ulshoeffer was all right; and
she would never be the wiser, and never
lose nights rest, as she surely would did
she but know that he had endorsed for all
he was worth
The time for which the note was given
soon ran around. Note time il always very
short. Ulshoeffer could not meet his notes;
protest after protest followed. Lockdale
had to explain to his partners. 8aa.
A terrible scene followed the partner
ship must end The books were balanced
at once, and the partners literally paid
Lockdale his share, about five thousand dol
lars; and when he had taken up the dis
honored paper, he stood in the street a ru-
ned man All that be had gained by his
years of steady labor was gone his future
was gone; his name as business man, his
character for prudence; in word, all that
goes to make up good mercantile name
was gone.
Gradually he broke it to Lucy She was
shocked and terrified, but, woman-like with
her own heart breaking, sought to console
and rouse him.
The furniture of the little house was sold,
all but enough for a couple of rooms, and
hiring floor in as decent house as he
