PHALoNs MIGHT BLOOMING CERRUs.-Among
the rich and delicate floral extracts which, ever
since the world began, have played so important
part in the feminine toilet, and which seem to
multiply as We advance in refinement and ciyiliza-
ton, there are none, perhaps, which can at all
equal the genuine extract Of the beautiful eNaqn
Blooming Cere4s," !" as prepared BY PHAIoN Son,
the celebrated New York perfumers. As in most
everything else, it has been reserved for Ameri-
cans to excel in the manufacture Of toilet extracts.
The refined and highly educated taste Of the court
ladies Of Europe acknowledges this fact, and hence
a new export trade between this country and Eu-
rope has been inaugurated in the steady shipment
of large quantities OF this perfume to foreign
countries, thus actually superceding the best
articles Of LuBM and other French makers. The
fashionable world, especially, has long needed
perfume for the handkerchief which, while it
possessed the requisite fragrance, would neither
stain the handkerchief nor evaporate aoreadily as
to leave no odor, as is the case with most floral
extracts The chief points Of superiority claimed
for this extract are:
That it Is the most delicate and fragrant Of oil
perfumes.
That it's properties are so lasting that it does not
lose it's fragrance or strength upon exposure.
That it will not stain the handkerchief
The great popularity attained by the Extract OF
the "Nigl Blooming Ceress" has induced indi-
ydusls to initiate it Its name only, as they can
not initiate the article ITSELF the secret Of its man
uactre being possessed only by PHAIoN & Sos.
The proprietors would therefore caution the pub
Lie that the genuine article has PHAIoN & Son,

WHY ARKANSAS OBJECTED TO THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT.=-Th fol- lowing are the reasons given by the Arkansas Legislature for rejecting the Constitutional Amendments:
 Arkansas does not know that the amendmentwas adopted by sucha Con- gress as the Constitution provides for one-third of the States being unrepre- sented in it. Secondly--It was never presented to the President for sanction, as the Constitution requires. Thirdly The enormous power it seeks to give Congress would virtually abolish all local and domestic State laws. Fourth ly-It seeks to force negro suffrage on the States as shown in the second sec ton, while the fifth and third sections disfranchise the wisest and best citizens of the State, who, having performed all the conditions of surrender and general amnesty, are entitled to restoration to the status they held before the war, and there are no reasons for believing its adoption would secure restoration. The committee recommend quiet and dignifed course of endurance, rather than purchase restoration at a sacrifice of the principle of self-respect.

ANOTHER HEAVY CAyE.-The Missis- sippi river has made another sudden and destructive inroadupon the founda- tions of the city. At about o'clock last Sunday morning, the bank opposite the Exchange Hotel commenced sliding in, and in short time very large semi-circular section of the bank went in. extending back across Main street endangering the Hotel building and the adjoining residences. This is the lar gest and most ruinous eaving which has. occurred, and is truly a great, calamity to our citizens whose property is thus swallowed up by the Farther of Waters. The Exchange Hotel, property Of H.
 c. Rightor, Esq, had just been hand somely refitted at great expense. The loss falls peculiarly severe upon this gentleman, as also the owners of houses in the vicinity of the cave who are necessitated to tear down and rebuild farther back. This continuous caving is fast bringing the main portion of our town upon the very verge of the bank, and great apprehensions arc felt that many of our largest business houses will have to be vacated at an early day. Could property holders be indemnified for their losses, we believe it would be better for the growth and prosperity of the place to retire to the hills " here we have sure foundation we'll adap- ted for building up the most Beautiful city in the " est.-Ilelena Clarion,
