JUDGE SPRINGER-The District Court
has finally adjourned, after having dis
posed of large amount of important
business, and Judge Springer has returned
to his residence for short respite, prior
to the commencement Of the Mt. Pleasant
term.
The labors of District Judge in the
First Judicial District are arduous, un-
questionably more so than in any other
District in the State; but we are glad to
see that Judge Springer's health, which,
when be first went on the bench promised
to be inadequate to the task before him,
is much improved. As Judge, his
course gives eminent satisfaction to the
bar, we believe, OF the whole District, and
certainly to that of Lee county.
As presiding officer, his manner is
most admirable, kind and courteous to
all, but firm enough for every exigency.
This, taken in connection with his learn
ing as lawyer, his very considerable
experience as Judge, and bis undoubted
integrity and honesty as man, thoroughly
fit him for the position be occupies. =

BENEFIT To NIGHI-Mr. English, the
manager of the celebrated Ravcl troupe
now performing in our city. has gener-
ously offered to play this evening for the
benefit of the Ladies Union Aid Society
The reputation Of this troupe is almost
world wide and needs no comment from
US, and if auAht was needed, the crowded
houses which nightly thfong the Athe-
neum would attest fully as to the merit OF
the performance. To listen to Prof. Mnl-
ler's performance on the violin is alone
worth the price of admission. Let every
one turn out, then, ard contribute their
mite to the cause and ell the building to
It's utmos. capacity. 1t is seldom that our
citizens have an Opportunity Of witnessing
as good an exhibition, and this eyenin
will be their last in this city. Tickets for
sale at the bookstores Of Ogden, Wes.cott
and Brownell. Go early.

DEAR SIEs-Knowing that ycu are
always interested in the welfare of our
country, and especially in the army during
this struggle for the perpetuity of our in
stiiutlons. send you a line from this
quiet department to say that We have not
forgotten you and that the fires burn
brightly upon the affairs of freedom. AS
you are no doubt aware we are now
department known as the department
of Arkansas" This change was greatly
needed and is hailed with satisfaction BIZ
the whole army, as that now we are not
compelled to wait for papers and instruc-
tlons in minor details of the army from
headquarters al St. Louis, No., which oc-
cupied months in transit before we could
hear from them. Our affairs are now
regulated in our own way, subject" &C.,
and positive instructions from Washing
ton City. As to the policy pursued here
| have little to say, and will leave events
Is they transpire to interpret what kind
of policy is pursued. One fact is patent
to all and will not be disputed by any
here, viz: The commanding General is
very popular with all the rebel sympa-
thizers and Southern gentlemen herea-
bouts and by them is praised to the skies
as "second Washington" and "gaite a
gentlemdn.' Never was Scho6eld more
popular with rebels in Missouri than Gen.
Steele is to-day with the same class here.
While this is fact which all well know
here, will also say that many good Union
men have confidence in his integrity to
the Union cause and the Government.-
Time alone will determine all things; but
may God, in his infinite goodness, forbid
that We should have Schofeld re-enacted
here or Missouri reproduced in Arkansas.
The masses of the people are loyal and as
radical as loyal. But one vote was cast
in the Constitutional Convention in favor
of gradual emancipation. The people are
nearly unanimous upon the question, and
slavery is doomed in this State bv the
action Of the people themselves. The
new Constitution, which will receive the
sanction of the people next March, is q
Free State Constitution, and prescrbes
that neither slavery nor involuntary serv-
itude shall hereafter exist 10 the State
otherwise than for tho punishment of
crimes whereof the party shall be con-
victed, DC, which a. once disposes of
this whole vexed question of slavery in
| the State.
The army here has been undergoing
reorganization somewhat, under the orders
creating veteran corps from the old reg
iments in the field. The orders have been
responded to in the army most handsome
ly. The Sd Minnesota, S7th Ohio, and
many other Infantry regiments have re-
enlisted, while the 10th Illinois, lst Mis-
soari, 7sh Missouri, Msrrill's Horse, ga

Editor Gate City Will you please
publish, for general information, the sub
joined table of quotas for the different
sub-districts, and the amounts OF credits
for enlistments up to this date. 1t is a
fair approximation only. The quotas on
the same are those under the 100000
call; but we have received enough credits
to make up the last call Of 100000
These credits include all enlistments made
by Recruiting Officers to January 3lst
and all enlisted by Provost Marshal's s
Agents up TO February 22d. The enlist
ments for the 9Th and 9th Cavalry and
4th Battery, &c., have been credited to
the State at large.
