The TronbIe IN Arkansas.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. S1.-The Democrat
has the following special from Little
Rock, Arkansas, dated to-day:
Governor Clayton has returned from
Lewisburg. The insurrection is quiet
ed. The court has been reinstated, and
trial resumed The difficulty COM
menced by rebels breaking up the
court with an armed force, and disarm-
Ing Union men. The latter soon col
lected, hundred strong, and took po-
silion in a cotton field, and whipped
three hundred rebels. Several OF the
latter were shot. Union loss. none.
Governor Clayton arriving, addressed
the insurgents, ordering them to dis
perse. Meanwhile the Sheriff arrived
with force of three hundred men, and
quiet was restored.
The Republican gives the following
reason OF the recently reported troubles
in Arkansas, based upon reliable In
formation, as late as the evening of the
29th ult. Conway county, four miles
above Little Rock, has a large negro
population, of whom considerable
number are Democrats. Recently some
Radical negroes surrounded the house
of Democratic negro, and after killing
his dog, tried to get him out of his
house. The assailants were arrested,
and in making up negro jury, a DEM
ocratic negro was summoned, and the
Radical blacks drove him away with
drawn weapons. Supposing he would
return with his friends, the black Rad.
icals went off and collected n number of
men and arms. Two white men who
tried to persuade the negroes to desist
were fired upon, one of whom was
MORALLY wounded, and the other had
a horse killed under him.
at this stage of the proceedings,
Messrs. Henkle and Gibbons, radical
members ofthe Legislature, summoned
the colored people in great numbers,
and 200 or 300 whites and friendly me-
groes assembled at Lewisburg, on the
river, for mutual protection, they bav-
ing been threatened with iudiscrimi-
nate murder. On the 9th a crowd of
300 radicals and negroes were harrang-
ed at Little Rock, and two companies
were raised to proceed to Lewisburg,
but Gov. Clayton was induced by the
representations of citizens to forego the
expedition, the citizens agreeing to &C
company him to the scene of the dis
turbance and guaranteeing to assist in
the arrest and punishment of those who
should be found to be the true offenders.
This was the condition of affairs up to
the evening of the 29th, as we learn
from reliable dispatches.
