The Shreveport Southeastern of the latest
date received says:
As Texas cattle are now bringing good
price in Now Orleans, and the roads from
the interior to this point are getting in good
order we look for large droves of cattle to
come in for shipment. As cotton is getting
scarce, drovers will find no trouble in ship
which will take them to the city in forty
eight hours. Bring only good beeves, as
they are they are the only class which sell
readily at a remuneratiVe price.

The election eampaign in indiana wlll be-

spirited. Washington telegram says:
There is considerable anxiety felt among
the Republicans in congress concerning the
political campaign in Indiana. While her
delegations are solid here for impeachment,
and all remain at their posts, Information
comes from several portions of the state
that efforts are being made to supplant
them. There is very general feeling that
the Republicans of that state will commit a
serious error, and one that will react
| strongly on the house, if the efforts thus
made are successful. The feeling of congress
is that if the people really sustain impeach-
ment they should retain those who have
| helped to fghtit through.

ARKANSAS CONSTITUTION ADOPTED The
St. Louis Democrat of Wednesday, received
last night has the following gratifying IN
telligence:
convention that framed the new constitution
for Arkansas announces its triumphant adop-
ton. Official returns from the entire state
give majority ofl649 for this charter ofpop-
ular liberty in one of the seeded states, and
leads the way to speedy return to her old
place in the Union. The result gives US
great JOY, and inspires a well-fonnded hope
that Arkansas has at length entered upon a
new career of prosperity that will, in 3 few
years, restore her to more than her old posi-
ton, while her fundamental idea OF equal
rights to all men will develop the onergy. and
character of her people beyond precedent.

An important incident bearing on the
opinion Of the presidents counsel in regard
to the duration of the trial is the following:
MIR. Curtis had been retained some time
since in a case in Massachusetts, court for
trial on the 18th of April. One of the
parties to this suit arrived here day or two
ago, and went to Mr.. Curtis's to inquire If it
would not be necessary to employ a lawyer
in his place. Mr.. Curtis said no, for he felt
certain the impeachment trial would end SO
as to allow him to be present in Massa-
definite than anything else from the presi-
