ARKANSAS AEFAIRs. --General Ord
has just made report upon the condi-
ton of things in Arkansas. He sums
up matters us follows: "Outragcs, as
saults and murders, committed on the
persons OF freedmen and women, are be-
ing continually reported from nearly all
sections of the state, and decided want
Of disposition to punish offenders appar-
emily exists with the local civil officers,

have been reported tifty-two murders of
freed persons BY white men in this state
i'll the past three or four months, and no
reports have been received that the muir
derers have been imprisoned or unish-
ed. In some parts of the State, particu-
larly in the southwe.t and southeast,
freedmen's lives arc threatened if they
report their wrongs to the agent of the
Bureau, AMI in many Instances the par
