tained. No alternative being left Mr.. Ken

MN SAXON BLONDE.
BY JOHN G. sAXE.

They say the dark-cyed maids of Spain
Are passionate and fond;
But eyes of blue are tender and true;
Give me my Saxon blonde.
An arch coquette is the bright brunette;
B.ithe and merry and gay;
Her love may last till the Summer is pas
But my blondes forever and aye.
If bards of old the truth have told,
The Sirens have raven hair;
Bat DER tn, earth, since art had birth,
They have painted the Angels fair.
Ah, well,--may I've. the truth to see,
y lover is over fond;
And | can't deny-nor will try
Ny love is golden blonde.

lature together, for no special emergency,
but the general exigency resulting from
ths altered and changed condition of our
Federal relations and domestic affairs
He states that the removal of negro troops
from the State: and Cthe transfer of the
Freedmens Bureau to officers Of the regu-
lar army are the subjects of congratulation.
He deplores the state of the country, en-
dOrses the Constitutional Amendment, but
presumes a mere reading of it will cause
its rejection. He recommends the admis-
sion ofnegro testimony in all courts, re-
quests that provisions be made for the ed
ucation of INDECENT children of Confederate
soldiers, and for the relief of destitute and
disabled Confederate and State soldiers

 Colonel J. II. HarreL-DRAR SIR:l In an article from your pen, iR reference to my son, published in the Little Rock Pantograph. of the 2d inst, notice few but important er- TOTS, which beg to correct. One of these is in reference to his age. He was only seyen- teen.
 But 1 wish to call your attention to a few facts in connection with this unhappy matter, of which, perhaps, you were not aware, At the time of my sons arrest or very soon thereafter, Mir. E. R. Blanks and some others, the friends and perhaps the only friends, of my son. in Little Rock that had the power to render him ahy important assistance at his trial, were thrown into prison, and there kept until after the execution of my son. He was thus denied the benefit of the advice of these gentlemen, and of the able counsel and rslia- ble witnesses which they would have procured for him. Not only this but the summary and harsh treatment of these gentlemen deterred other friends from making any effort in his behalf. And after my sons conviction, when delegation of the noble women, of Little Rock, presented themselves at General F. Steeles headquarters, to plead for the unfor tunate boy, this man, unworthy the name of soldier, and disgrace to humanity, galantly refused them admission to his august presence. The fact is, General Steele was determined to have him found guilty. With him 1t was a foregone conclusion. And IS his convention was to meet on the Sth of January, grand tableaux must be gotten up for the benefit of his soldiers and the rabble. Doubtless Gen. eral Steele thought the boys courage would fail him at the last moment, and thathe would duplicate some prominent citizen ofwhom an example could be made. But he was mistaken in his victim. This beardless boy showed this blood-thirsty monster, that he could die manfully for his principles, and that even with the prospect of saving his own life, he would not imperil the lives of his friends. It may be satisfaction to Gen. Steele to know that he murdered my son--not for being q spy, but because he would not reveal the names ofthose who had entrusted him with an important secret. leave 1t to an impartial public to say who was most disgraced, the boy who died for his principles or the General who murdered him. had not the pleasure of a personal meeting with General Steele after this sad even. during the war, but I now pro- claim him coward and murderer, and hold mysslf personally responsible for what say
