Although Arkansas is the second Of the Sc

allegiance to the Constitution, she will be
the first to resume her place in the Union.
On the 14th instant she adopted her new free
Constitution By popular vote Of over ten
thousand, In spite OF the threats, and in many
places the actual interference Of rebel guer-
illas. Three members are elected to the
Honse Of Representatives from the several

month, win proceed to fill the racantlseats

Our readers viii rcco1lect the case Of a. G.
johnson, who WIS tried and fonud guilty at
Rock Island, some two months eincc, for
the murder Of Laurina Roc, little girl some
ten years Of age, the murder having been
committed nearly three years previous to
the trial, and about two years before the
body Of deceased was found. Application
was made by counsel for the prisoner for
new trial, and change Of venue. Both were
granted, and the case taken to the Circuit
Court Of Henry county. The trial Iastcd
about week, md resulted in verdict of
not suilty. The result Of the trial turned
ul'on the theory Of the prosecution that the
girl had been killed by blows on the head
with hammer, or some like instrument,
whereas the jury, By the evidence Of physi-
clans, were convinced that certain holes in
the skull Of the murdered child resulted
from other causes, and on this the prisoner
was cleared, although all seemed to be Of the
mind that johnson caused the death Of the
little girl, not in the manner clalmed by the
prosecution, but In way known only to the
murderer himself In this way justice has
probably been cheated OF legitimate victim.

Gen. A. i, Smith,

commanded By Gen. Smith. As there nre
several General Smiths in the army, it may
be well to cay that this is Gen. Andrew Jack
son Smith, an old army officer. He is ma
tive of Pennsylvania, and graduated At est
Point In 1Ss8, entering the service as Second
Lieutenant Of the First Dfagoons In July Of
that year. He became First Lieutenant in
March, 1915, and Captain in February, 1s47.
In the Mormon Expedition Of 1916 he Was
acting Lieutenant Colonel under Gen. Kear~
ny. He was distinguished In several severe
conflicts with the Indians near Rogue River,
Oregon, In 1856. On the 18th Of May,; 1851,
he was commissioned as Major In the First
Cavalry, and on the 18th Of March, 1862, he
was appointed Bdgadler General Of Volun-
teers.
w What makes the gold go up? Partly
that there is too much currency ahoat. No
body knows how much is in circulation, but
1t IL known that In addition to the Issues of
the National Government the State Banks
have their thinplasters abroad by the million.
Partly that there is no chance for absorb
ing this currency In permanent and suitable
Investments in the National funds, and 1t
seeks use in extravaganza and speculation,
The new National loan is therefore expected
to mid in reducing it
Partly too that speculation in it forces II
up without regard to its value.
Partly too that the war fingers and nobod,
sees the prospective end Of It. a rouslng
victory would sink it like lend in the water,
But there is another course which may be
called constitutional, because 1t operates per

CAN'T ACREE.-The St Louis Demo-

and the Neue Zeit, the two organs of
the:Radical Germans of that city, as to
the effect of the Louisville Convention.
The Democrat calls the platform there
adopted "sound and thorough" and be-
lieves it will serve as a basis for the
platform to be constructed by the Ma
tional Union Convention" On the other
hand, the WeStEiche Post and Neue Zeit
bitterly complain that the Convention
was a failure-that at has not fulfilled
the expectations it excited" "the
platform as a faint-hearted production
iUhich amounts TO nothing, and made
evidently as a sort Of neutral ground be-

A detachment of eighty mechanics and
engineers, from Missouri, passed through
Louisville to the front, on Monday.

by citizens of Jacksonville that small

contagion has reached, almost daily

Kentucky Legislators in Earnest,

The closing hours of the Kentucky
Legislature were marked with the pas
sage of several stringent measures, put
ting that body on decidedly Union plat
form. They were as follows:
A law Furnishing guerrillas in the Sc
verest possible manner.
Another, by which soldiers in the field
from that State shall be allowed to vote
at the Presidential election.
Another by which in civil suits LOYAL
men may recover double the amount of
damages they have sustained at the
hands of guerrillas, and that said. dam
age shall be paid by assessment on the
property of those who are proven Seces-
sionists. In case of the death of the
head of a family whose estates have
been impoverished, the widow or orphan
heirs may recover.
Another still, that all juries before
bringing cases of the kind referred to,
shall, on each occasion, take the oath
of allegiance to the General Govern
ment.
These are very important measures,
and will doubtless have the effect Of
testing whether the lawless bands of the
State may find it to their advantage to un-
oertake some honest calling.

These gentlemen constitute the only
District Union Committee that has been
properly appointed as such. 1t is sug-
gested that they make some arrangement
for an early meeting, that the work of
organization in our District may be
pushed with vigor and determine
ton commensurate with the interests at
stake in the election. Upon this Com
mittee devolve the selection of the time
and place for holding District Conven-
ton. 1t is especially their province to
see that the party is efficiently organized
in every county. Upon the energy with
which the District Committees go to
work will depend, in great measure,
the enthusiasm and efficiency of the
county organizations, and the ultimate
success of our State ticket Harmoni.
GUS and vigorous action is all that is re-
quired to make the October election in
Indiana the Waterloo of the rebellion.
The rebels have already signifed their
belief that the only hope of achieving
the independence of the Southern States
10 the defeat of the Union men in the
elections of the present year Every
thing depends upon our successful is
lost if we suffer defeat.
We urge, then, upon the District Com
mittee to come to an understanding
soon as to the plan upon which the cam
paign shall be conducted in this District
that We may know what it is, and shape
our policy accordingly.
The holding of District Convention
is, of itself, a matter of careful consid
Grafton as to manner, place, and time
We must be prudent as we'll as united
if we hope to succeed.
