ARKANsAs.-The Chicago Tribune does
not speak enthusiastically of the two Sen
ators from Arkansas. RICE, particularly,
shows too much contempt for the ''illus
trious body" of which he has suddenly
become a a member. The Tribune says
Mcdonald, whose term expires in 1871,
is a good.looking man of aboutthirty seven
years, stocky built, with full face, black
hair and moustache. Rice, who holds till
1873, is about forty, rather above the me-
dunn height, with light brown hair and
sile whiskers. lie showed his quality by
sprawling in the most uncouth fashion
on n lounge while the debate took place,
evidently to show that he was at ease, and
fully able to bear his honors.
Messrs. Rice and Mcdonald took seats
far down on the left of the Vice President,
back of Messrs. Draks and Upton, and to
the right of Messrs. Ramsey and Chandler.
The st. Paul Pioneer says, "Rice is n
carpet Dagger from Minnesota before he
came to this State he was a swindlcr."
We think Rice has just found his level.

The chances for the Congressional nom
ination in this District just now APP
pear to b. prctty we'll mixed. The Charles
City M%teliigencer comes out in a clever ar
ticle in favor of Mr.. Decring, and it is I'M
derstood that that gentleman has the un-
animous preference in Mitchell county.
Winneshiek will present Mr.. Cooley.
Bremen is set down for Mr.. Burke. The
Clayton Co. Journal is not averse to
the denomination of Mr.. Allison. The
Independence Bulletin ''pitchcs into to J.
X. Graves and favors Allison. The Nash
VA Post and Lansing Mirror are set down
for Mr.. Graves. Fayette county, so far is
mum, but probably for a 43d paraller.

Union, and we'll bet the lemonade that
either Mr.. Deerins or Col. Allison will
carry off the honor.-N. Hampton Com-

mock funeral of the late Mayor.
This WAS participated in by an i'm

pans, trumpets and other fearfully
discordant instruments, marched in
solemn array behind coffin borne
upon the shoulders of some ten pail
bearers, who were black, or appeared
to be; all wore the deepest habili-
mcnts OF woe. The cortege preceded
by ontriders. paraded through the
principal streets to the music of their
various instruments, and finally pro-
cccded to the bridge, where, with
appropriate ceremonies and military
salutcs, the coffin was cast into the
river. The march to the bridge was

The enjoyment of the occasion was

Fort Lafayette, in New York har-
Dor, which was made so notorious
during the war, as place of confine-
ment for Confederate. prisoners, was
accidentally destroyed by fire, on the
1st. 1t was undergoing repairs, and
vast amount of material was within
the enclosure. The fire ragged until
past midnight, completely cutting
the entire work of everything of an
inflammable nature. Great fears
we're entertained that an explosion
would occur, from the fact that there
were 80, pounds of gunpowder in
the magazine. Fortunately, though
sorely tried, the bomb-proof proved
efficient in staying the progress of
the fire in that dangerous quarter,
and fearful explosion was averted.
