Gen. Rosssau Calls for More Troops
IN NoRTH GARoLINA.

ST. Louis, October 81.
The Democrat (RepubIicau) has a
special fromLittle Rock, Ark, as fol-
lows: asfs 49,
Hon. James Kinds, member of Con-
gress from the I'd district, was assassi-
mated to-day while travelling through
Monroe. Hon. Jos. r. Brooks, who
was with Hinds, was wounded, butt is
supposed not fatally.
James Valsey, an out-spoken Repub-
lican, was murdered in the same couu-
ty, near Clarendon, a few days since.
The Republican (Democratic) has a
special from Little Rock, Arkansas,
which says the report OF the assassina-
ton of Congressman Kinds and the
wounding of Hon. j. r. Brooks Is
dlstrusted. The dispatch further says
the Radical party defeated both Kinds
and Brooks out of the denomination
TO Congress, both were ediscountenanced
for making canvass arraigning the
the negroes against the Radical Central
COMMITTEES. Rice q Co., were capable
of doing the Radical party great
injury. The Radicals charge the killing
to the Democrats, but their endeaVor to
h6 II on them Will be fruitless as the
Democrats had everything to hope from
the detection of Brooks and Hines,
which would eventually be disastrous
70 Radicalism 1t was to the Interest OF
the Democracy TO preserve their lives;
it was the interest of the Radicals TO
put them out of the way; II they were
killed the Democrats would suffer,
while the Radicals would gain. The
death of both dlsposes ofthese dangerous
malcontents who were the most inhuen-
tial with the negroes and brings the
negroes completely under the control
ofthe Radical ring. " -
On the Goth fiity' negroes attacked
Dardanelle, firing into ths houses of
the whites. The whites rallied and
drove them ont. A peace meeting was
held by the whites next daY. [Similar
to that held at Camilla, we suppose.

to charter a steamer especially to take
them. a--
