THE following are the reasons given by
the Arkansas Legislature for rejecting the
constitutional amendment:
Arkansas docs not know that the amend
ment was adopted by such Congress as
the constitution provides for, one third Of
the States being unrepresented IN il. Sec
ondly-h was never submitted 10 the
President for sanction az the constitution
requires. Thirdly-The enormous power
il seeks 10 give Congress would virtually
abolish all local and domestic State laws.
Fourthly-It seeks 70 force negroe suffrage
on the States as shown in the second sec
ton, while the fifth and third sections dis
franchise the Wisest and best citizens Of the
State, who having performed all the condi-
tons Of surrender and general amnesty,
are entitled &c restoration 20 the status
they held before the war, and there are no
reasons for believing i,s adoption would Sc
cure restoration. The committee recon-
mend a quiet and dignifed course Of en-
durance, rather than purchase restoration
at a sacrifice of the principle Of selfrespeet.

THE TARIFF BILL

An active fight seems to be going on in re.
ference TO the bill now before Congress. be-
tween the protectionists who favor a virtually
prohibitiye tariff, and those who wish 10 frame
the ball so as TO produce the largest revenue
All OF the old arguments familiar TO politi-
clans OF twenty years ago are being revived
There Is this difference now. In addition TO the
old theories OF enhanced prices, &c, il is urged
by those opposed TO higher duties, that their
imposition will diminish instead Of increasing
the revenue, and thereby impair the public
credit. The protectionists seem to have been
strongest in the House yesterday, as several
amendments raising the rates were adopted,
the most important being that increasing the
duty on pig iron from 20 t. SO per ton.

1t Will be remembered that Mayor wallach
in his letter TO the Secretary of the Interior
(Which the latter transmitted to Congress in
his reporr in referenceto the relations Of the
General Government to the city Of Washing
ton. made an exhibit showing the sums of
money (amounting In the aggregate to s37.
4i0 6D advanced BY the city to the General
Government al various times for improve
ments upon Government property, and which
sums had not been refunded to the CITY
The Mayor called attention to the fact that
Congress, admitting the propriety Of at least
spending in the improvement of the city what
was realized from the sale of the lots given by
the original proprietors of the soil to the Gov
eminent, on the 18th day Of May, 1s2O, by the
18th section of an act Of that date, directed
s'thst the Commissioner Of Public Buildings
or other person appointed to superintend the
United States disbursements in the CITY of
Washington, shall reimburse TO the CORPORA
tion Just proportion of any expense which
may hereafter be incurred in laying opeu
paving, or otherwise improving any Of the
streets or avenues In front Of or ad Joining to,
or which may pass through or between any Of
the public squares or reser vations, which pro-
portion shall be determined by the comparison
of the length of the fronts of said squares or
reservations of the United States on any such
Sl4ctt Ol avenue WITH the WnOie extent OF the
two sides thereof
At this time, May Is, 1880, there remained OF
the lots given by the original propretors 3.725
sill of which have been sold at greatly en-
HANGED prices, and the money paid into the
treasury, and this Corporation has since then.
from lime to time, advanced sums of money
to the General Government, which it is en-
Titled under this act TO have refunded. and
which yet remain unpaid, as above stated
The Mayor has been assiduous in urging
upon Congress the justice of refundng this
money, and 1t would seem that his labors are
now likely TO be crowned with success An
appropriation was inserted In the Deficiency
bill to repay the money. but objection was
made by members that ii was an appropriation
not germare TO the deficiency bill, and il was
stricken out of that bill. Those directing TO It's
Insertion In that bill, however, expressed their
Willingness TO support il in any other shape
and II has now been unanimously reported by
the House Committee on Claims to the amount
of S3i,slO-61, the committee striking out the
single item of S2,5OO for enclosing Judiciary
Square, enclosed under act of Congress an.
proved March g. ls57.) This sum of money
will prove very serviceable in enabling the
Corporation to carry out needed measures of
improvement.

Brevet Major General T. II. Ruger, who re-

sioner Of the Freedmen's Bureau IN North
Carolina, has reported TO the commissioner for
the time during which he occupied the posi-.
ton. he having been relieved in turn BY Brevet
Maj Gen. John G. Robinson. He says that
the State con vention has rescinded the proyiso
to the act passed BY the Legislature relating to
the testimony OF freedmen in courts. 1t also
abolished the distinction before existing by the
law in the punishment for an assault BY a
negro on q white woman with intent to com.
NIT rape. As the law now stands the pen.
alties are the same for white and black.
and the testimony Of all persons Of color
are admitted in all cases in which they
are personally interested. He states that there
are fewer cases Of violence towards freedmen
than formerly. At Goldsboro' two freedmen
were shot, one was killed and one wounded,
by the police Of the town or their assistants.
The circumstances as At first reported by the
officer OF the Bureau at tnat place indicated
that the freedmen were at fault. The General
has reduced the number Of employees OF the
Bureau in the belief that officers on duty in the
Bureau In charge OF sub-districts can perform
all necessary labor, and that their duties will
be better performed by personal attention than
by the use of assistants. Some officers phys.
ically disabled are. however, allo wed one clerk
